I always find this stuff fascinating..

To see creatures that survived long before man was a twinkle in the genetic pools eye.

Are you sure that thing is real and not a prank or something? I watch nature shows all the time and have never seen anything similar, except for animated prehistoric creatures.

Just saw the video. The shark is not THAT strange. I've seen stranger looking creatures. Hammerhead shark is stranger looking too.

So why didn't it "evolve" into a modern day shark in 5 million years?

because it's natural habitat didn't require it to. creature evolution is influenced predominantly by its habitat and environment.

that's is not obvious to everyone. not everyone, including myself, know the exact depth limit that humans can survive in.

i'm surprised the creature didn't just spontaneously exploded due to the drastic decrease in pressure at sea level.
