Real Isopod Hours? Sure!

- On November 30, 2017, while exploring in the Gulf of Mexico, we encountered this nearly 30-centimeter (12-inch) giant deep-sea isopod (Bathynomus giganteus) at a depth of ~810 meters (2,660 feet). These giant isopods are a great example of deep-sea gigantism, as most isopods in the deep sea are much smaller, about the size of your thumbnail. While we often see these giant underwater 'pill bugs' resting on the seafloor, we don't always get to see them swim, so seeing this isopod come in for a landing was exciting!

"Charismatic"
Did he give an interview? 😂
Giant isopods be like
Giant isopod noise
I like how it swims.
It holds itself legs in and uses that under tail to swim.
That's cool.
Real isopod hours. Thank you for your contribution.
THAT'S A GOOD DOG
Awesome landing. Back legs pedal, Front legs folded up until touchdown.
They can crawl but have boosters for flight, so cute. I love them
Who up rn scavenging the seabed 💯
These have got to be my favourite creatures to ever exist. They remind me of an alien spacecraft and I love the way that they swim. Overall they are super cool!
It is isopod hours my dudes.
Wow, i never knew that those tiny ones had a bigger version living in the seas.
Nice Pokémon!
I have one In animal crossing, he’s my room mate. He has the entire top floor to himself
I want to hug them
What if...THESE STARTED TO COME ON LAND AND WERE GIANT ROLLY POLLIES :000
HE'S SUCH A GOOD BOY GIVE HIM A TREAT
I found a wimpod, time to soft reset!
I just imagine someone walking one in a park with a leash attached to it like a dog. 😂
"Oh, don't mind me. Just taking Larry for a walk."
isopods be like
Were those some shrimp at the end? One of the shadows darted away. The other guy landed on the isopod's back.
WimpyMcWeaksauce I saw that too... And am not sure?
How can an isopod be the stuff of nightmares for some people? This lovely crustacean is the greatest thing on earth!!
I had no idea they could swim like that. I always imagined they just crawled around on the bottom.
its cute
I'm totally in the "They're really cute!" camp!
same
they’re so cute! especially when they swim!
I love this animal they are so cute.🥰
wow this was an excellent find! I'm certainly one of those people who can't get enough of arthropods such as these and this is really amazing to see! Thanks for sharing :)

Rebel transport landing on Hoth for evacuation
I want to be reincarnated as a giant isopod when I die. Truly an ideal life.
Haha large boi
Beautiful creatures. Bringing forth the real isopod hours
Did Love Live brought you here?

I was DMed this on discord from the Isopod Congregation. I’m impressed.
Been watching y'all all week! Amazing stuff! Thank you for the video! It is so cool listening to the scientist and engineers working together! Keep up the excellent work!
Aaaaah :DDDD
My favorite critter :DDDDD
Never saw it swiming, it's even better :DDDDDD
Ever notice how sea creatures' bodies are like vehicles? Everything they do, they make it look effortless.
I like how it soft crashes before deploying it's landing gear. =)
Giant isopods are adorable!
The life is the most biggest mystery of universe
When it’s swimming it looks like one of those rebel transports in A New Hope ^^
How precious
Really cool to see one swimming.
Wonderful stuff. Thank you.
look at that isopod swim. wow thats wonderful
real isopod hours -IronManLOHH
this is truly a giant isopod moment
So cool, never knew they could swim.
Just a really amazing prehistoric looking creature. I bet if I googled this thing they'd be recorded as being around waaaaaaaaay "back in the day". Fascinating to me to see something like this alive after looking at fossils of things so similar looking being alive pre-humans.
this is one of the best videos of all time.
they are gorgeous
A wild Wimpod appear!
Simply fantastic lad
congrats on your evolution, big guy.
there is no place to play golf there btw
Omg, it's cute... why is it cute??
I like the way the exoskeleton segments furl back gradually
it's interesting how on the outside the tail segments and the positions of its antennae are the only thing that differs from sowbugs\pillbugs.
Here's one irony. When I looked up isopods online for species the information is so poor for USA lol.
REAL ISOPOD HOURS 😂👌💯💯💯
I love how enthusiastic the narrator is to see one of these guys. She's definitely one of us.
I love these guys! 🥺
By far the most charismatic isopod out there
I found one of these when I was a kid, brings back memories haha
I really loved the way they swim.
I seen the footage of Challngers deep. The 3 different sizes of isopods was cool but even better was the snail fish that ate the smaller isopods
I can't believe I missed this dive. :-(
He's calm, I want to pet him
Giant isopods are awesome!
Even though I'm not a fan of isopods why is this one the most cute
Is there a place where I can see the live reaction to them seeing this cool animal?
Real isopod hours!
The color:🥺💜✨🧚
The shape:💀👣 🐜
Aww! So cute! 💖
That thing is so cute I wanna pet one
is it isopod hours yet?
I love how they're just a gigantic version of the woodlice.
Thank you
Beautiful swiming form
It's real isopod hours
ah, i love isopods, one of my favourites creatures in the world.
am i the only one who wants it as a pet? Cause it looks kinda cute, im also deathly afraid of bugs but this lil guy is kinda cute
It's a crustacean, not an insect or arachnid. Maybe that's the difference?
Almost a trilobite! (Yes I know they aren't almost a trilobite, but they do come close to looking like one. )
Bug still alive from dinosaur times. They say the cockroaches and dragonflys got that big too
youtube knows what content i want
How did the dog get down there?
"They're very charismatic."
*Chases ROV's, bites cables and kills sharks*
Yeah, not too sure about that charismatic part. But hey, they're a spoof playable race in Stars in Shadow. So success I guess?
Is it isopod hour yet?
Beautiful creature
A little lemon and melted butter...
Adorable!!
Do you think they are related to trilobites? They look like them.
They are my favorite sea animals that aren't extinct
I've only seen dead Isopods. A moving one? Hell nah, gotta go fast
now THAT is what i want to see
Nice Pokémon :) Isopod hours
A new Pokemon!!
They are related to Pill Bugs, because pill bugs are crustaceans.
Giant aquatic armadillo bugs 🥺
So cute!!!
What happened to you exactly iso Padre??
