Alien looking creature transforming near Ocean floor at over 3700 feet. Video from ROV

In many ways, we don’t need to look to the stars to be filled with wonder, we need only explore the waters below the ocean and we’ll encounter lifeforms that are so alien to our lived experience, we begin to wonder what other lifeforms exist in the universe.

A quote from this original YouTube post:

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.
