Ghost Sharks of the Deep Sea. There is a revenant that haunts the depths. At around 2,600 m (8,500 ft) deep, the Chimaeriformes, or Ghost Sharks, are an order of cartilaginous fish that diverged from true sharks 400 million years ago. With only one gill opening on each side, upper jaws fused to their skull, no scales, and large sensitive eyes that seem to glow, they appear ghostlike. They even move like ghosts, as rather than using their tail to generate propulsion, they use their large, wing-like fins to glide through the water while using less energy. The stitch-like lines that can be seen around their body make up the lateral line system, allowing them to sense the movements of prey nearby.

“Large, sensitive eyes”...........”let’s blind the deep sea creatures with our portable sun!” - every deep sea team

I really want to know why they appear stitched up. It’s my favorite deep sea creature, so unique.

This fish comes from the “fin burton” section of the ocean. Quite the underwater visionary.

What a gorgeous looking animal. So gracious, and so ancient. As if it got lost in time and was thrown into the future straight from the Paleozoic itself.

"Frankenstein Fish" Is the first thing that comes to my mind when I see these somewhat scary but beautiful fish. Almost as if they were stitched up, kind of like Frankenstein for obvious reasons. Cool looking 🐟!!!

I've always found chimaera gorgeous. They're really fascinating.

I love how everytime I see a video like this they mention how sensitive their eyes are to light while also shining a giant flash light in its eyes 😂

All the animals in your videos completely scare the hell out of me, I'm terrified of both vast dephts of water and basically everything living in them 😂 But I can't stop watching, you present each creature in such a fascinating way 🤩

"There is a revenant that haunts the depths" Totally a callback to your previous Chimera video

These ghost sharks live super deep but they are just one species of chimera. In the Puget Sound a kind of chimera called ratfish, which look almost identical to the fish in this video, are common. They are sensitive to light so they stay deep during the day but at night come right up to shore and I often see them while diving.

This animal seems SO familiar! Where have I seen one before...? Oh, of COURSE! There's one inhabiting the insane, roiling regions of chaos at the heart my darkest subconscious nightmares! I *never* forget a face...especially when they're seared into my soul!

What a hauntingly beautiful fish. I've never seen one before. Never even heard of it. How exciting to learn about sometimg entirely new to me!

I’ve always wondered, when they’re filming these deep sea creatures with super bright lights… You would think shining a light so bright onto a creature who never sees real light at all…..would almost be like shining a really powerful laser pointer directly into a human eye. Wouldn’t leave their eye damaged ?

Thought this was all 3d made until I saw the first illuminated scene on the bottom of the sea. This gives me the feeling like watching something forbidden to us, something we shouldn't know about, those impossible, fascinating creatures...

They look like undead fish soul reavers of the depths. An animal even deadlier looking than pokemon
