The giant squid has the biggest eyes in the world - I read that in a magazine.

Jeez!

They've had a one kilometer long fishing line with a squid as a bait. It took several days for them to catch the big squid attacking. Apparently this one was 8 meters long, but they can become 18 meters. The attack had been quite fierce, the squid lost one of the tentacles and it came up with the fishing line, still moving when it reached the boat :eek:
