Rare 'Sea Serpent' Caught on Video

Posted June 10, 2013 1:22 PM

From Discovery News:

The giant oarfish is the longest bony fish in the world - reaching, according to some reports, as much as 56 feet from tip to tail, although recorded lengths are somewhat more modest. Its size and its snake-like shape have led to suggestions that it may have been the source of at least some legends of sea serpents.

"DNews posted part of one of the videos, complete with narration by lead researcher Mark Benfield, back in 2010"

Now if they really wanted to make these documentaries entertaining they would get John Madden to narrate them (unscripted of course)!

Frank Caliendo as John Madden.

and

John Madden explains Football.

Yea you would watch any documentary if he was narrating because you know you would come away from it feeling smarter for any number of reasons!
