    Dispatch a team of BBC Video divers immediately. I want a Squid Planet Blu-ray ASAP.

    What did they use as bait? A harpooned baby whale?

    First they chummed the water with finely ground manatee to bring the squid in to the general area. Then they lured him up close with a brace of skinned baby seals on the end of a pole.
    No giant squid worthy of the name can resist the smell of a good, ripe manatee chum slick. I think..
