This documentary narrates the campaign launched by a group of Spanish in search of the legendary Kraken, in northern Spain, in the depths of the Carrandi pit.
The appearance of a giant squid in the Asturian coast was the starting point of this project. The goal was to be the first to film in the wild the mysterious Architeuthis, which the Norwegian sailors called Kraken, the legendary giant squid.
The Architeuthis is the animal with the highest rate of growth in the animal kingdom. Thanks to the statoliths, we now know that these squid grow around 1 cm a day, which rapidly turns the tiny larvae into the largest invertebrates on Earth. And, as the detective work progresses, each new discovery in the bodies found helps us to approach the challenge of entering the world of the Kraken and trying to see it alive.
The first images showed a black, empty world as the camera descended. But, after long minutes, the lights began to be reflected. The descent was coming to an end. It was an emotional moment. We were discovering a new world and these were the first images.
That same night, we would receive surprising confirmation that our camera was indeed in the right place. A trawler brought on board a giant squid caught at barely 300 metres from the outer limit of our first buoy. This squid, 6 m in length, would represent quite a find, as it turned out to be a male, much less frequent and smaller than the females.
Now, we were working with just two cameras. One of them remained in the water column, at around thirty metres from the sea bed, while the other rested on a surface of silt where, beneath the infra-red light, stealthy fish and crustaceans prowled around our lures.
Before submerging our little remote-control robot, we planned to bait the ocean depths in order to attract the greatest possible number of species, especially the potential prey of the Architeuthis.
On the night of the 24th, our spirits began to fail. The Architeuthis had still not appeared and time was running out. And then, from the Calypso, the alarm rang out. We all came out of our cabins and headed towards the Calypso knowing that that alarm could be our last opportunity to film a giant squid.

I can't help but think....these little animals, going about their lives, suddenly, bright lights coming out of the darkness to buzz them....it's their version of UFO's, lol.
(one squid says to another) im telling you man! there was this round thing just floating above the water! and bright lights! then all of a sudden they used this .....clear forcefield things and brought me on there ship! they put some sort of tracker thing on me and did experiments on me ! then they let me go! i sware it happened! ya ya bob ....we believe ya ...youve been eating to many iron shell crabs man...
dothackrules dothackrules lol
LOL... very good. Funny!
Kovarr, why would the animals of the deep have versions of ufos when any sudden light appearing would mean a predator has appeared. No time for idle delusions of grandeur exists for any other creatures on this planet. Only the insane ape does that: make time to fool itself into believing bullshit
Reading this shit you troglodytes have posted, and I think: I'm the one whose stoned and drunk, why are you all so stupidly teenaged
I was going to suggest that the the expedition be named *Let's Get Kraken!!!*, but I thought people might try to harm me.
Ha ha...I needed that Thanks!
LOL
🤣
😂
😂😂😂
According to wikipedia, the Colossal Squid, which is found in the antarctic, is the REALLY big one and it has hooks instead of suckers. The Giant Squid which is found all over the world including in the Northern Hemisphere and temperate areas, just has suckers instead of hooks. The colossal squid weighs more and has a more squat body. The Giant Squid is the same length but has a skinnier head so it weighs about half as much. I think the documentary might be confusing the features of the two types of squid.
Thank you.
The giant squid is longer by about 4 meters and has serated rings instead of hooks, by the way how was life 4 years ago
Well you heard wrong. Giant squids have teeth on their suckers, and hooks at the ends of their tentacles. While colossal squids are a bit heavier, giant squids are way longer, growing up to 40 feet long. Colossal squids are fat and ugly. Giant squid are still superior in my opinion.
@@MonsieurFeshe You shouldn't body shame the colossal squid, though.
@@Synathidy lmao
LOL! The dramatic musical scoring and recreations of historical scenes is so hilariously funny.
"We saw a massive squid alongside our boat. Longest tentacles like you wouldn't believe. Brushed the hull as it swam by and it rattled the boat a little."
turns into
"They saw a massive squid as long as their boat. It hit the boat with it's tentacles"
turns into
"I heard people saw a massive squid that attacked their boat with the tentacles"
turns into
"I hear tons of people talking about a giant squid monster that sinks their ships"
The most obvious evidence is the destruction you can see on the bodies of whales they fight with
Dan thinks chucky is real and is after him
Dead giant and colossal squid occasionally wash up ashore but even the discovery of their primary sources of food give little clue of where to find them. They are ambush predators that spend most of their time in the deepest recesses of our oceans. For squid of this size to exist food must be somewhat plentiful, but it is also likely that they spend a lot of their time rather dormant to conserve energy.
It doesn't surprise me that shipmen have had scary encounters with them. Squid using their tentacles to sense something unfamiliar makes perfect sense given how curious their nature is.
Glad u survived the kraken attack
Last two I heards ruined it.
the intro cgi is better than anything we have ever gotten out of nasa
IF HE SAYS KRAKEN LIKE THAT ONE MORE TIME, I SWEAR
That 45 minutes can never be recaptured. Gone forever like their giant squid research money.
It's really, really hard too find one. Because they smart. I think when we not find a 16 meter squid. We never will find aliens or so. We are just egoistic ape's 😂
I know you are from the US, at first U thinking about the money. US biologist "Oh I like to see a sperm whale that fights with a monster squid, I would pay for it", a biological from Europe hey let's find the biggest squid and show him everyone for free to safe the ocean. I don't care about the cost, it's tax money.
In Europe knowledge and study is for free. But that's capitalistic reason, if u have knowledge u find a good job, earn much money and pay a lot of taxes. Buy a EU health insurance, it's cheaper to fly to the EU and go to the hospital or so. And you can visiting the EU.
@@Itsme-xf7sx Nothing is for free, you pay for healthcare and your education. You pay with exorbitant taxes. I’m not claiming your system is better or worse, it’s different. Education in America doesn’t guarantee you a good paying job, we have billionaires who never went to college.
Only one colossal squid was found once as i remember to see on tv and those big squids are usually prey to spermwhales in the deep ocean and there is no way we can dive 2000m in the sea to see them.
Max lenght would be 12m.
I saw a show about some people who were trying to build a Kraken in some simulation and this thing would be 60m long from head to the tentacles.
The ocean can support huge animals but 60m is ridiculous since it would be 2x longer than a blue whale.
People tell stories for centuries about the Kraken attacking ships so if the biggest squid ever found was a dead creature from deep ocean that never swims to the surface Kraken much bigger than that would attack ships?
With 60m that thing could kill a whale but nothing like that ever happened.
There is no way this creature can exist.
A difficult documentary to make finding an elusive marine animal. Fantastic to see preserved HUGE Squid. Enjoyed this program
🎉
Wow, i feel old...2001? I was in primary school back then...holy crap.
I was not born
Don't feel old... I already finished my masters in 2001 and I feel young still😂
Great doc. The soundtrack went well too! Thank You.
If you like this check out the document about squid in the Sea of Cortez. They dove and contacted large (3-4ft) squid to attach cameras to them so they would go deeper and be caught by giant squid.
Another "We ain't seen shit" documentary.
Thebuilderofthings1 ty for saving me time
There was a documentary that came out within the last 10 years that shows live footage of a giant squid. Sorry that I can not give you the name or year of it. I am a Sailor by trade and I caught the doc by pure chance as I had just came home from a 3 month hitch and turned the tv on. It was very breathing too see one alive.
yeah, giant squid, not the "kracken" they claim exists.... :(
The Kracken is taken from myth and people like to try to say it is real. Just because some book or poem made 1000's of years ago does not make something real.
Comb the desert!
A US nuclear submarine was attacked by a Humboldt squid, which left claws stuck in its rubber coating. The claws were seven inches ( 17.78cm ) long. The average Humboldt squid claw is 5/8 ( 1.5cm ) of an inch long. I'll let you do the math.
I remember hearing about the suction cup marks found on whales that would indicate a much bigger Squid than anything s
documented so far so far
34:22
Me in my head: Do you remember 21st night of september.
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
I like to always know more & it's very informative. Thanks to the team.
The adventures of krak-ken and ryu.Hadou-kraken!!!
I wouldn't normally comment on this, I really like documentaries. This one however...just made me really, really sleepy. I'm sorry, this one is just so damn boring. It's 44 minutes and some long and I feel like I've been here two hours. If you plan on sticking it out in hopes that they find one, allow me to save you some time...they don't find one.
I was actually hoping to find a documentary I had seen on TV a few years ago, it was about pilot or sperm whales and giant squid. If anyone knows what that documentary is I'd greatly appreciate it if you'd tell me lol this wasn't it.
Had I been smart and read the comments BEFORE watching this I would have watched it before bed. I'm tired now, I'm not kidding. I really am tired, I feel like I need a coffee or a coke/pepsi but it's quarter after six. Frig, excuse me I have to go run around the block to wake up now. o.O
AliCat42 it's th BBC, WHAT Y?A XPECT
They're showing this documentary to torture prisoners at Guantanamo Bay .....heartless gringos. Lol.
its translated by the bbc but its Spanish made
OH MY GOD YES!! I think I know what you're talking about!! Did it have this scene where they drag this HUGE long arm onto the boat, and it's pink and has suckers the size of an adult male's hand, and the suckers are still reacting to touch since the squid detached it in order to escape? And they were searching somewhere in the Japanese sea?? I'm searching for the same video too!
AliCat42 Bwaahaa Bwaahaa
I lost it when the hyper-dramatic music started and the guy went into the fight or flight half crouch. I dunno. Made me laugh.
Amazing documentary as i belive mother earth has more to show us werry awesome documentary
Japanese Schoolgirls: *HEAVY BREATHING*
This whole post is like watching the grass growing in a the yard 🥱...
0:00 best part :]
LMFAO Everytime he says "the KRAKEN"
Lol the toung roll is killing me 😆😆
Anyone ever think that the reason we don't see them very often, if at all, might be because they may have adapted an electricity gauge through evolution to sense around and the amount of electricity coming from the equipment we send down could possibly be the reason it avoids us all together? Instead of the camouflage evolution, they could've evolved it into something built more for the lack of light, of course rather than bio-luminescence. That or sound, to try to detect their predators, the Sperm Whale? And the amount of sound or strange noises at the least coming from the equipment could be hindering their appearance?
They have eyes the size of soccer balls their fine with the lack of light XD.
I doubt it.... Squid tend to race forwad and investigate anything and everything don't they? I'd be interested to know if sensing organs in deep sea predatory creatures are even actually used to avoid generally, rather than to find prey... But I mean.... You never know!
17:33 Great to see the Spanish Navy assiting the scientifics.
they failed as badly as the scientists though. someone ran a trawler through the area and stole a camera and they didnt even notice 😂
Yall really got ads like i dont gotta finish this in ten minutes to graduate
VERY GOOD DOCUMENRTIES
Now I know ware world of war ships got the name Kraken from. Thanks for the video.
I wished I had read the comments first. This is a total waist of 44:43.
I can't believe they were looking for the squid on the sea floor, what the hell were they thinking. You would probably find that a dozen squid came to look at the lights but from above. They were probably swimming 50 to 100 feet above the ocean floor
I believe that they just weren't deep enough and not at the right spot. Because their deepest spot endet about 600 meters and they hit the floor. They need a spot that is much deeper than that. The giant squid is most likely at a depth of 2500 meters where it's swimming around so it has to be a spot much deeper than 2500 meters to see them swimming around
Perhaps a version of JWST for the oceans...
✨
WTF? I typed "crackhead"... UA-cam how did I even end up here?
#Spoiler - _No Giant Squid!!!!_
44mins saved 🥳
00:00 Our camera equipment is second to none. Best in the world.
45:00 Cameras broke
Why did they only film the bottom? All the creatures of the world could have swam by without them noticing
Here trying to slowly cure my thalassaphobia. Exposure therapy lol 😅
The Kraken wasn't a giant squid, it was a creature the size of a small island...more like a gigantic octopus
Woooow thanks it really got me thinking
HP Lovecraft apparently wrote the script for the description of the ocean floor
great documents
there’s something wrong going on in that little part of the ocean. It was so devoid of life and activity. Even if official plains have a lot more life than that usually. you may not see the animal, but you will see the marks and trails they left behind and that was not present
That smoking scientist reminded me of detective Columbo episodes when he smoked in a hospital lol those were the days :)
When was this documentary releasd ?
I highly recommend research into the financial duo behind the making of this film. I'm sure you will find a load of information. . Google search Ben Dover and Phil McKraken for best results..🤔🙃
Mercy Doll, Ben Dover? I've heard that name before 🤔 Something to do with homemade videos.......And his son is a comedian (?) And his wife (are they still married?) was the lady in the film, in the adult cinema, in American Werewolf in London (Lindsay Drew? was that her name, something like that.) Anyhoo, yeah search Ben Dover 😉
A month ago i see a vlogger who catches a mysterious squid.. Its color is black, and the fisherman said that its smell like a pee.. And base on the picture on this film is actually the same picture that i saw on that vlogger.. How ironic.. He question his self, "is this the kraken?", and they put back the black squid that they catch on that sea.. That squid having a bone or teeth on that tentacles..
45 minutes of existential angst.
Good stuff. Shame they didn't actually find one.
If they'd go out their in a big sailboat (like what they used to use) and use nothing but red lights or lanterns... I'll lay 3 to 1 odds that they'd find one.
They should have called Earth "Water". Lol sorry i checked the comments after they said that and glad i saved myself 44 min.
Let’s go Kraken!!!
The Spaniards would have been loving the giant said rings 😂
How is it possible to get so big where the oxygen levels are so low? The metabolism must be very low.
That is part of the theory for deep/cold-water gigantism. It seems to go against all logic, but most sea-critters passively take oxygen in, or pump water over their gills and move all in one motion. There is a certain economy to their respiration we really have to get out of our terrestrial comfort zone to think about.
The music is much too loud, sometimes making it very difficult to understand the narrator.
R GH soo annoying :-(
I remember reading about the largest giant squid they've found washed up had 4" suckers/ cutters and was over 150' spread out. Whalers have caught sperm whales with 16" round scars on them from a massive giant squid.
BUMMER...!
Try searching around Christmas when the in-laws surface from the depths of darkness
44 min you won't get back
I'll give them an E for effort.
Anyone notice the Heroes 3 music? :P
I got so board i forgot what was about !?
"This planet was given the wrong name. It should in all justice been called......" (wait for it)
.
..
...
.... WATER?!?
Water. Water? WATER!!!!
You got nothing better than "Water" after a buildup line like that? How about "Poseidon's Prison!" Fits the unnecessarily overt melodramatic overtone for a show about a ' real squid, yes'... the legendary KRAKEN (insert dramatic accent). Discredited the whole documentary in 30 seconds flat.
it just kinda hit me.. for decades scientists searched for the kraken by dropping lures to the seafloor.. Errrrrrrr.. It took that long to figure out that squids swim/ live way above the sea floor?.. with all that studying of humbolts and other squids.... not the brightest field of scientific study huh.. had the lady and Japanese dude not had that epiphany sooner, god know how long scientist would have been dropping lures to the bottom still
Great soundtrack, someone give me name song, pls!
- vote for throwing those fishbags to ocean like there is not plastic all ready
YES, POLLUTE THE OCEANS. KILL THE FISH. HAHAHHAHAHA
can someone please tell this man to never say the word kraken ever again
0:04 floppy floppies
IT'S THE JOURNEY AS
WELL FOR US INDEBTH THINKERS & VISIONARIES....👏👏
BTW U CAN SEE A GIANT KRAKEN CRACKIN ON A 2 MIN
VIDEO & HAVE UF THRILL😉🍣🍣
Good video but the cinematography needs a lot of work. Also the ending was too abrupt . You would think after all this afford to make this film they just all the sudden end it without any explanation. It needs some work. But the content is awesome!
Save your time folks. No squid here.
I appreciate the effort but this was pretty boring. Great audio though, had to turn my volume way down lol
Near, Far, wherever squid are, I believe that their tentacles will be long.....
Release the Kraken!
39:29 the guy slipped on the stairs probably ;)
Yeah, the most exciting bit and.....
they cut it. Damn!
Thanks for warning me I hate when it's disappointing
pass it forwards im down 45mins of life🙈 thats almost 1mm in kraken ear bones
We know more about space than the earth's oceans!!!
Dont waste your time. There's no giant squid 🦑
Lost a bouy, it sank! wait! we have an ROV! Let's.. nah we don't wanna find the bouy, let's uh.. skim the silt!
Try to watch the vlog of
Seafood allergic fisherman, they found some mysterious squid that having a hook in the saction of their tentacles..
Both giant and colossal squid have hooks that surround their suckers. Sperm whales are always heavily scarred from their encounters with them.
Nothings going to come near that submarine with bright white lights beaming
39:34 my dude slipped..sad
woops- i meant 39:24
I wonder if the colossal lives among them or north to even colder water
Yeah, two tentacles sucker types from giant/colossal show they're more often colossal for their largest specimen
is this documentary or a movie? the opening is quite dramatic effect...
Kawaii Yuki it's BBC bull feces, bought and paid for by the common peasants of England .lol
Kawaii Yuki IKR
this was 40 mins of nothing actually being learnt
Nice Toshiba Windows 98 laptop at the end. However its not even turned on. Sums up the standard of this documentary. Its all hot air and they got a lot of money but did nothing with it. That "expert scientist" puffing on his cigarette in that tiny camera room and the over the top commentary put me off. These guys hadn't a clue. Mañana mentality.
I love documentaries. But this one was very boring.
they dont find anything save 44 mins and dont watch not saying the channel is bad this vid is bad
They didn't find it because no one said "Release the Kraken!". Amiright? 😁
Good documentary. But be careful! They bite!
no, no they don't
Skip to 44:36 if you wanna see the squid
TOO MANY ADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yet collosal squid is baE XD. NICE DOCUMATARY !
Isn't calling your vessel Calypso, the goddess of chaos and discord, just inviting problems?
Better than Titanic or SinkyMcsinkerson I suppose.... 😆
*BlastfamousHD!!* his biggest fear 13:42
Narrator?
Whenever I’m thinking of the image of the 🦑Giant Squid I Always think of that made for TV movie and Miniseries called The Beast (1996) Where a 🦑Giant Squid At Exactly 100 or more Feet is Terrorizing a Coastal Resort Town Called Graves Point !!!!
😕😕😕😕😕😕🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑
Theres a watchable film called Tentacles from the 70s.
Hey let's make a documentary on finding nothing. Atleast we can load it with commercials every 5 minutes to make some research money back. Great idea Skippy.......
This documentary is OLD...2001. They don't find anything as they are looking in totally the wrong place for a Giant Squid...but man they had a lot of funding to help look !
Bryan Peake giant squids are hard to find.
