Far from the scariest squid.

That one's simply named the big fin squid. Probably the human mind cannot comprehend its true name.

Magnapinna squids like the one you show, are found deep in the ocean. Imagine even more insane squids fathoms more below.

Someone took a look at that animal, that one in the picture, and said "Wow, look at the size of those fins."
