Those darn whales. Always have to be the center of attention.

Yeah, that's deep. I think the cachelot dives that deep in search of giant squid, but I couldn't tell what type of whale it was.

I bet the camera operator had some adrenalin going there...

Looked a bit like a blue whale to my untrained eye.

It did raise a couple questions...without the ROV lights how would it see anything?

You recon they have that fine of sonar?

Wonder if the lights attracted it.

Looks like it came close to the well head or whatever that was....I wonder if there is ever damage done by whales at depth?

Holy crap! Stop the video at 10:19:40 and you can just make out the SeaWorld chick holding on to his port fin and waving with a big smile on her face! Jeez those women are tough.
