Amazing that this can be found on our planet (wait for the transformation!)

This video was taken by an ROV (remotely operated vehicle) at a depth of 3753 ft in the Indian Ocean within close proximity to a drill wellhead. Near the end of the footage you can see the creature getting caught up in the output from the ROV thrusters. The video has not been altered and was taken off the East coast of Africa.

1. Looks a lot like...

The black sibling of that white creature in the scifi movie 'Life'

2. That umbrella-flipping move reminds me of a vampire squid ...

... but it doesn't look quite the same. Maybe not the single known species, but same genus ?
