    Im currently watching a documentary of these awesome creatures on the discovery channel

    ive never knew such squids actually exist,
    and they also differ from the giant squids (that i also recently knew about its existence)

    the distinct difference is that giant squids have "suction cups" in their tentacles with small teeth around a cup
    while colossal squids have 3 inch claw in their tentacles, and each claw can rotate 360*

    I always thought the Giant and Colossal squid were the same thing, guess I was wrong.

    imagine a claw is pierced in a part of your body, painful right?
    now imagine it pierced in your body then the claw rotates around several turns creating a cone -shaped hole...
    now imagine that but in a hundred places....

    I want lots and lots of those in my glorious army. Imagine it: teams of colossal ninja squids attacking cargo ships, clawing through the hulls of submarines and terrorrizing large fishing fleets. That would be some awesome.

    Oooo, looks like the Kraken from Pirates of the Caribbean. It's huge! I wonder where those things live and why that one was found dead.
