Jumbo Flying Squid With Razor-Sharp Beaks Attacking Divers in San Diego Dear God
Sweet wrath of the infant Jesus, this is terrifying.
Thousands of jumbo flying squid with razor-sharp beaks and long tentacles have moved into the waters off the coast of San Diego attacking divers and washing up on beaches.
The squid is also known as the Diablo Rojo, or Red Devil. I am serious about this and you need to be too! Jumbo f*cking flying squids with razor-sharp beaks attacking people! Video after the jump.
The squid are five feet long and can grow up to 100 lbs. Says Wikipedia:
Nevertheless, they eat their prey by grabbing it with their tentacles and biting it repeatedly with their beak. Working together, several squid are able to devour large prey very quickly.
They hunt in packs. They are 5 feet long. They only come out at night. Their beaks can “easily cause dramatic lacerations to human flesh.” It is not safe to go swimming again, ever.
One diver reported being hit from behind by a large squid before it grabbed at her arms and pulled her sideways in the water. It also ripped away her buoyancy hose from her chest and knocked away her light.
“I just kicked like crazy. The first thing you think of is, ‘Oh my gosh, I don’t know if I’m going to survive this. If that squid wanted to hurt me, it would have,” she said.
Scientists aren’t sure why the squid, which generally live in deep, tropical waters off Mexico and Central America, are swarming off the Southern California coast–but they are concerned.
They are like sharks, but with one key distinction: sharks do not suction themselves to your face and eat your godd*mn brains out.
The video begins ominously: “An undersea earthquake has driven a lethal predator to these shores… As night draws close, the local [animals] sense an alien presence and begin to seek safety in the shallows.”

It is one to see a squid happily swimming in a hot vine sauce but there is a totally different thing to see a giant squid swimming along with me in cold waters. I prefer to eat dinner than be dinner.
These guys are EXTREMELY dangerous, they watch, learn, attack and kill. You will not survive an encounter by one.
