The scariest thing about this isn’t the fact that sperm whales routinely eat giant squid.

The scariest thing about it is how they hunt giant squid.

They aren’t just randomly bumping around in the dark, happen upon a squid and they go “you’re big I’m big, let’s fight, winner gets to eat the loser.”

Oh no, these whales are fucking giant biological weapons. This is what they do. They dive, literally to the bottom of the ocean, capable of reaching depths of over 3,000 feet which is deeper than most nuclear submarines can go, and then you know what they do? They fucking swim upside down, so they can see silhouettes of giant squid in the sunlight.

Think about how birds of prey can pick a mouse out of a field from 1,000 feet away. That’s what they do, only with giant fucking squid. These things get over 60 feet long and weigh over 50 tons. They can swim up 28 mph while surfacing, which is literally faster than the fastest humans alive run, ON LAND.

So imagine you’re a giant squid, thinking you’re the badass of the ocean, floating around being all giant. This fucking monster just swoops up from the darkness below you, takes you to the surface in like 15 seconds, jumps out of the water for air then dives back down and fucking eats you.
