They're not using gloves or anything!

6. Thanks for the tip.

I was able to watch the whole thing with my daughter.

Excellent presentation. Who knew squid have three more hearts than Cheney?

[soothsayer]

7. It's a vivisection (the squid is alive?) or a live broadcast (but the squid is dead)?

8. Sorry if you were freaked....but

I did mean live as in happening at that time.
Giant squid are never alive at the surface of the ocean afaik.

9. A Jumbo Atlantic Squid was today's National Geographic's Picture of the Day

Jumbo Squid, Atlantic Ocean, 2004

With an angry eye and a cloud of ink, a jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) flees from a diver. If camouflage fails, squid use ink as a backup defense. Mexican fishermen call the aggressive creatures "diablos rojos"—red devils. They often spew water from their funnels when hauled aboard.
