10 BIGGEST SEA MONSTERS EVER
The open sea.
Look in any direction, and the vastness of the deep blue water swallows your vision.
Down below, the abysmal depths. Home to some of the biggest sea monsters ever.
These are the massive sea creatures terrorizing the world beneath the sea surface. Many of these creatures stalking the waters are a little bloodthirsty, but others are downright fierce killing machines.
Then we have those that are bizarre-looking and absolutely terrifying-the makings of our own imagination.
But not all monsters lurking in the depths are creepy and frightening. Some are gentle giants, ruling the sea in glorious majesty.
So, grab your scuba gear and suit up, we’re diving right into the belly of the deeply mysterious sea to find the world’s biggest sea monsters ever.
Also, be sure to stay to the end of the video to find out more about the sea monster that’s making the blue whale look like cuddly Nemo.
#10. Crabzilla
In 2014, a fifteen-meter giant crab was intent on making a statement in the UK's popular crabbing location in Whitstable, Kent county.
The giant crustacean was seen at the exact spot under the harbor, where some boys were crabbing. A satellite image of the crab showed a shadowy figure taking the shape of what looked like a colossal crab in the waters, somewhere off the English coast.
News of the giant crab went viral after it was published in the UK's tabloid newspaper.
While several residents claim to have witnessed the unusual crab, aptly nicknamed ‘Crabzilla,’ invertebrate experts from the Natural History Museum, London, maintained that there was no such thing as a giant crab lurking in the waters of Whitstable.
What do you think, was it all part of some digital fakery like we see in pranks, or is someone trying to keep a ton of crab all to themselves?
#9 The Blue Whale
It would be awfully disrespectful to discuss huge sea monsters without mentioning the largest animal currently ruling the oceans. We’re talking about the magnificent blue whale.
Right from birth, the blue whale calf outweighs some of the large animals we know. The blue whale calf is also one of the fastest-growing animals, gaining about 90 kgs (200 pounds) daily.
A full-size grown blue whale weighs upwards of 200 tons and spans well over 35 meters (115 ft).
If, for whatever reason, you had an aquarium the size of a cricket pitch, the blue whale wouldn’t fit. You get how big these sea monsters are, right?
So here’s the interesting thing, the blue whales’ throat is only 20 cm in diameter! They cannot swallow large prey, and the best part is that they could not swallow a human even if they tried.
Even so, there have been cases of the blue whale accidentally eating a person. Most were spat out almost immediately, albeit not without a few bruises.
#8. Great White Shark
Being the largest predatory fish, it doesn’t come as a surprise that the great white shark has a fierce reputation of being a savage killer.
Though not as large as the whale shark, the great whites are the most popular types of sharks. They grow as long as 7 meters in length and weigh up to 2 tons. The largest great white ever recorded named “Deep Blue” was estimated to weigh a massive 2.5 tons.
These sharks are very agile swimmers; thanks to their torpedo-shaped bodies, they can cruise swiftly in water despite their massive body, reaching a top speed of over 55 km/h. It’s impressive how they can make a sudden turn even when they’re at high speed.
The great whites are armed to the teeth, literally. With 300 razor-sharp teeth, these sharks can rip their prey apart in a matter of seconds. Their teeth are so sharp they don’t use them to chew. Instead, they rip off mouth-sized pieces, which they swallow whole.
Although human flesh isn’t a delicacy on the shark’s menu, the great whites are known to be responsible for several unprovoked attacks on humans. Researchers claim that these are just “sample bites”, but deadly ones nonetheless.
#7. The Whale Shark
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world.
Well, because they have the names “Whale” & “Shark,” it can get a little confusing, but these are sharks. They only resemble the whales in size and feeding habits, hence the ambiguous name.
Since they are sharks, we classify them as fish because whales are mammals.
The average whale shark will grow to 10 meters, but they are known to grow up to 14m (46 feet!) long and weigh up to 19 metric tonnes.
With these numbers, the whale shark easily dwarfs the great white shark. Even so, whale sharks do not get as much attention as their cousins, the great whites, probably because they are not predatory sharks like the rest of the gang.
