The deep sea, where no light nor evidently god’s blessings reach, is known to be full bizarre-looking creatures that look like they belong in Google‘s Deep Dream AI system rather than in our natural world.
But a Russian deep sea fisher has been posting pictures of the creatures his fishing trawler spits up on Twitter, and it’s caught the attention of local media.
The Moscow Times reports that Roman Fedortsov is based in Murmansk, a port city in the “extreme northwest part of Russia”, and started tweeting his finds earlier this year.
Something to think about next time you’re going for a swim.
