(N.Morgan) In the footage below is of some sort of creature that was caught by deep sea fisherman in Singapore.it almost looks like some sort of plant creature, I’ve never seen anything like it. Ong Han Boon, caught the strange creature while fishing near the island of Santos.The creature, which appears to have 100 moving tentacle-like arms, and looks like an alien monster of some kind, even has some experts puzzled. Mr Boon stated, “I thought it looked like an alien, or some kind of mutant. It was wriggling around, and making strange noises, I was totally shocked, I have never seen anything like it, it was horrifying”.

This is nothing other-worldly! It’s a Gorgonocephalus, which is a genus of marine basket stars in the class Ophiuroidea.
Nothing more. Very common in cold, deep waters.
Carry on!
Thank you CS!
I guess they don’t teach biology in the schools anymore, particularly Marine Biology… It is clear too, that people don’t read much about various fields of biology…
I remember seeing this for the first time in biology class back in the 60′s… But beck then we were TAUGHT…
There are some truly amazing life forms in our oceans… Basket stars are one of them… I hope that star made it to a high quality public aquarium, so it can be seen and appreciated by many…
We are no where near close on sea exploration ! Then alone the ABYSS We have no clue.

Poor little ugly sea creature. They should have left it where it was. There are all kinds of things down there that will never be discovered. 80% of the ocean will never be explored by man. It is so deep that even man’s most technologically advanced submersibles can’t tolerate the water pressure. You would be amazed at what’s going on way down there, but humans will never know.
Jeffry pritchet covered this story YESTERDAY ! Old news…..its N O T an alien ! Seems as though the writers on this website have writers block, copy articles alot….. Really..
He did? Hmm.. Sorry, Jeffry, didn’t see yours..
As to the rest of the comments, I hadn’t seen it before and I thought it was creepy and alien, not necessary the space alien variety, but more an alien entity, of unknown origins..
Old news? Have you took a good look around here??
