I dont think so I think the creature is real at least the explosion part may have been shopped.

But this creature is all over you tube in several different videos. They cant all be shopped.

[Buddahaid]

I always wondered where a**holes come from.

Until I/someone finds more on this I'm gonna have to go with CGI as well. Doesn't make it any less freaky though, especially whenever they turn the thing over :o

[UnderseaLcpl]

It looks like a cross between a cnidarain and a mollusk, but I'm witholding judgement until someone with more knowledge of zoology can make an educated guess.

[Jimbuna]

Could be the latest addition to the sushi menu.

[GoldenRivet]

my guess is that it is mostly or all CGI

if it is only partially CGI, i would assume it is some sort of marine gastropod without its shell.:06:

you may recall this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQmFWYWqTZA&feature=related

initial claims were that it was CGI

turns out it was a cluster of some species of worms.

[Jimbuna]

Put it this way....if it wasn't CGI the buggers would have been eating it :DL

[Dowly]

Puppet of some sort.

:har: about right!

You are 100% correct!:o Now we need to go to the Asian market and find one.:hmmm:

[Jimbuna]

Well...they do tend to consume every part of anything coming out of the sea...don't they? :hmmm:

[GoldenRivet]

yes they do... and it seems that the more disturbing and disgusting the thing looks, the more flavor it has

[Jimbuna]

Bon apetite :DL

[Catfish]

Why all this rubbish about a snail ? And it does not "explode", it just spits water out in utter despair as a defence, it is only that a big splash lands on the camera lens lol. Maybe there also was some calcite arrows in the fluid to attack. Where do you guys go to school ? :88)
Looks funny, now lets kill it.

@Catfish

It's not a snail, it's fake. Check the full vid (3min) on youtube and you see why I think so.

[Task Force]

Fake, Its CGI. Im sure if it was real we would have heard something about it other than a video on youtube.

In the absense of Schroeder, I take the smart-arse throne. :88) CGI stands for Computer Generated Imagery and I would be willing to put my left nugget on the line to say that's a puppet. CGI would take much more time and effort to make it that life-like than a puppet would. :hmmm:

Problem being....you don't have a 'left nugget' to gamble with Mr. no balls :O:

[LiveGoat]

That was a clip from the soon to be released Japanese version of Naked Lunch.

I thought it's one of these (not exactly this species), but they sling their "mantle around the hard cone and look well like the one in the initial video (and yes they're toxic, they throw out their harpoon with water pressure, which may be what you see in vid one)

Here's the full video, at around 0:35 you can see just how fake this is. :DL

They do seem to scatter pretty quickly. Kinda like watching something on the Sci-Fi channel. :hmmm:

It almost looks that way doesn't it. :har:

[Catfish]

It is fake :haha:

Thanks and greetings,

[Jimbuna]

I've checked the takeaway menu of the local eatery and they're on the menu with rice so they must be real :DL

[Castout]

It's a recon section for an invading force from the deep sea . . .:nope:

It ought to be named terrorist mollusca

[Platapus]

So, evidently, these guys in the video "discover" some life form they can't identify and their decision is to poke it with a stick?

Brilliant!

yea poor thing . . .

Someone would use the clip to provide evidence that coke isn't good for people's health too I mean the thing exploded soon after :)

[Jimbuna]

Just wait till it's mother comes looking for it :o

Well first you poke it with a stick, then you pour some soda on it. :haha:

I'm pretty convinced now this is staged.

[Catfish]

I already thought of the Blob.

Or it's the pudding that ate Chicago .. :hmmm:
anyone heard of Chicago lately ?

[Weiss Pinguin]

What, you mean you've never gone to the beach with a camera, a stick, and some soda just in case?

[SteamWake]

No I take beer :yeah:
