‘Flying spaghetti monster’ observed off coast of Angola
See the close-up (third image down and in the video ~1:20), the bulbous part one would call the head is really a clump of appendages.
A bizarre and rarely seen sea creature was observed by a team from BP as the company carried out routine operations near an oil well off the coast of Angola with a remotely operated underwater vehicle.
The ROV spotted the sea creature swimming near the seabed at 4,350 feet and gave it the nickname “flying spaghetti monster” for obvious reasons (and possibly also as a nod to the satirical religion of Pastafarianism).
