But I also want you to think about this, if sea creatures are remotely ugly, have you ever thought, what could also be living in the underground as we speak? could there be terrestrial type species with intelligence? would there be any terrestrial dragons?

      Many deep sea creatures can survive pressure change (shallow water fish rarely survive the deep though). In fact it's usually the temperature that kills them rather than the pressure, Oarfish travel thousands of vertical meters to feed.
      In short, with some care, a biologist can keep deep sea fish alive for several weeks.

      This are larger and more advance sensors compared to the normal 35mm or APSC found on a commercial camera. A very good example of these type of cameras with large sensors are Phantom or Red or Apfa camera used in cinematography.
