    Gforce, good luck keeping them in confinement. They'll just cut, blast or weld their way out of it.

    That's nothing compared to the nuclear squid. From the friction of rubbing its tentacles together, it generates electrical charge, that causes electrolysis that preferentially displaces the lighter hydrogen from the water held in tiny bladders along the creatures head. After several weeks of doing this, the water in these bladders becomes heavy water.

    Then, by snapping it's claw while pointing at it's own head, it creates a sonic wave that generates a series of bubbles in these heavy water bladders, that rapidly implode and momentarily reach temperatures hotter than the sun. This causes the heavy water in the bladders to go supercritical, initiates fusion, sending out a blinding and deadly blast of neutrons that fatally irradiates all sea life within a 100 meter radius.

    This does of course mean death for the nuclear squid, but its children, who have been watching from a safe distance will have food aplenty while they are maturing.

    @Gforce: I want in on that one. that beats the hell out of fighting scorpions or chickens. I wonder how hard it would be to gather a sizeable amount of those things though. I won't be the one to catch them lol. But I can totally see that working out. Granted I can also see that going horribly, horribly wrong.

    This is where the cold fusion hoax in 1980s (I think it was 1980s?) originated from. US scientist claimed to achieve fusion using this phenomenon. (Un)fortunately nobody was able to replicate it.
