3. There's lots of wierd stuff down there.
I guess that's the reason they call the deep sea the final frontier.

For evolutionists: extreme animals adapting to live in an extreme environment.

For creationists: God's storage room for the oddball creations.

9. The tsunami? I don't speak russian, but I doubt it.
Some of those are deep sea fish. Plus one of those photos looks to be aboard a trawler, another in a laboratory.

Cool pictures, nevertheless.
