Βαθιά, άγρια νερά με σκοτεινά μυστικά: Τρομακτικές εικόνες από τους ωκεανούς (Photos)

Παρότι καλύπτουν το 70% του πλανήτη, μόλις το 5% των ωκεανών έχει εξερευνηθεί, κρύβοντας πολλά μυστικά που καλό θα ήταν να τα… αφήσουμε για λίγο στην άκρη.

Κι αυτό γιατί στα βάθη τους μπορεί κάποιος να συναντήσει πλάσματα που μοιάζουν βγαλμένα από ταινία τρόμου: Μέδουσες που μπορεί να σε σκοτώσουν με ένα μόνο άγγιγμα ή κήτη που μπορούν να καταπιούν ολόκληρα σκάφη.

Δείτε μερικές φωτογραφίες για να καταλάβετε για τι ακριβώς μιλάμε…

A remarkably nonchalant diver gets to grips with a giant pacific octopus, the largest of which ever recorded weighed an astonishing 156lbs, and is easily capable of wrapping its long tentacles around a human several times over

Jellyfish are scary, giant jellyfish - as seen here in Japan - look frankly unmanageable, with extendible tentacles capable of measuring more than 120 feet

This is the incredible moment a curious humpback whale approached a fishing boat at Australia's Gold Coast last year

This April, another humpback was captured from above with a drone as it nudged a small motorboat in Tonga - a scuba diver was present with it under the surface, but can't be seen in this photo

A southern right whale, around 45 feet in length, looming under a very dainty-looking boat in Peninsula Valdez, Argentina

The thrill-seeking captain of a sea kayak grins as a shark fins slices through the water around him, shot in Scotland of all places

The shadow of a hammerhead shark lurking close to a kayak in the Florida Keys - while very rarely aggressive towards humans, this species has been known to attack in the past

These boat passengers and scuba divers don't seem concerned at all, but most people would shiver at the prospect of several circling sharks, seen here in Cuba

In a battle of terrors, the fangtooth fish scores highly with its pointy teethbut the sea spider surely takes the biscuit with its catastrophically creepy legs

The deep sea anglerfish (pictured) gets a special mention too, for a frozen expression that looks part gormless, part pure evil

This monstrous matter looks worse than it is - the anchor hawsehole of the sunken USS Saratoga ship, north east of Papua New Guinea 

Comically, this pincer-cluttered infestation of spider crabs appears to be avoiding the diver than the other way round

Dive deeper and you'll find the giant conger eel, which can reach lengths of nearly ten feet and have been known to attack humans - hopefully a stunt this one isn't plotting
