Giant Octopus photos

The Lusca is a creature that the people of the Bahamas have seen for years. It matches the description of a giant octopus. Is that possible ? Pictured above are the remains of a unknown species of giant octopus ? While we know that giant squids do exist, it has never been confirmed that a giant octopus does, in fact, exist. The octopus would be more likely to attack ships and sailors than a squid would, so if there is a giant variety of the species, this could add credibility to stories of giant squid/octopus' attacking ships. The Kraken was a sea serpent that was seen by thousands of sailors. The Kraken description matches that of the giant squid. How many "Kraken" attacks were the work of an giant octopus ? An estimate on the size of the corpse in the picture if it was an octopus would make the octupus 150 to 200 feet tip to tip of the tenticles. The cell samples of the corpse were taken to the Smithsonian Institute in Washington DC and tested. The cells of the creature were not identical to, but very closely resembled the octopus more than any other type of sea creature. -

It's really no unusual to find such creature from the sea like the giant octopus. As like humans all says "The ocean deep is man's final frontier" or issit the other way around. Anyway, there are even manta rays as big as a whale and a large giant squid. I've seen such docmentary that they uncover squid beak as large as a adult human head.
Too bad though I can swim, if not, I would already have a new dream underneath the vast ocean...
...AS THE KING OF PIRATES!!!

giant squid cannot be eaten because of high ammonia in its body.. probably to be neutrally bouyant...
