    As soon as we changed from sail to noisy engine-driven seagoing vessels, the sightings of large unidentified sea creatures started to dwindle. I think the noise from the engines scares them off. That and the sheer volume of traffic combined with all the modern-day pollutants wouldn't have helped either.

    When you mentioned whales I thought about that whale that washed up on the shores of Oregon in 1970 and the attempts of the locals to dispose of it. Apparently, possessing a hillbilly IQ, some state official figured packing the whale full of dynamite would be a good idea and everyone went along with it. To top things off a bunch of people went down to the beach to watch. Things did not go well. It's well worth doing a video of this and I believe the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation sent a reporter to cover it and apparently the blown up whale covered him and a lot more as well. Another example of natures way of pointing out the not so bright.

    One teensy little correction though. Residents of Newfoundland pronounce it as "NEW-fin-land" or even "NEW-fin-lan" not "new-FOUND-land". I know it's spelled that way, but, much like Worcestershire, it's not pronounced the way it's spelled ;)

    Fun fact. It was thought in the past that giant squids could reach 40, or even 60 meters in length, based on the size of scars found on sperm whales. However, it is now understood that those large scars were made by normal size squids on juvenile whales, who then grew up to their adult size, correspondingly increasing the size of their scars.

Maybe a some million years ago at the same time as the Megalodon, there was a giant squid/octopus, that could reach like 50-60 meters, when oxygen and thereby food was higher in the oceans, but anything beyond that would simply be too inefficient and die from cold/starvation or not being able to pump the blood around.

    I think that Giant Squid is the most likely candidate on Kraken monster :D Squids can be pretty agressive, they fight with other predators (like sperm whales), they even attack people (even small ones can attack human if you're in the wrong place). They are clever enough to learn some behavior, so if there was very huge giant squid few centuries ago (it's possible without intensive fishing and polution like these days) and it maybe happened to be close when some ship sanked and fed on drowning people, so it learned that ships are great lunch boxes. So maybe it actually caused ships to sink, but it moved around most used ship trails in the ocean and fed on people who were unlucky and crashed with their ships. There was so much of ship transport around the world, battles on the sea, goods and food transportation, exploration, traveling and also fishing, so with this much traffic over many centuries is likely there were some animals who used it as oportunity to get easy meal.

    My tip is that the legends of the Kraken come from a mixture of collossal squid carcasses being dragged up from the bottom of the ocean where they usually reside, by spermwhales, which they fight sometimes... and, well... whale ding dongs.
    They're pretty damn huge, pink, look like tentacles and whales for some reason like to stick them out of the water...
    People probably found pieces of a collossal squids that fought a spermwhale and lost, either drifting in the ocean, or on the beach, pieced that together with sightings of whales, and just though "It must have been a giant creature with tentacles that was about to attack us!"

    No, but my friend did star in Pirates of the Caribbean while Davy Jones's crew was raiding the ship for a colossal 3 seconds laying on the floor with his face sucked off.

    I remember being a kid imagining of a giant squid. Especially when scars where found on sperm whales of the battles they had with their pray. Then.... As a teenager I got to see evidence of these once thought of "non-existing creatures" which gave me a spark back of creativity for exploration and imaging the things yet to discover is still constant possibility. The universe and biological life alongside geologically amazing areas/mixed with the ever possible chance of discovering ancient human treasures..... This is what makes life so amazing.
