Real Isopod Hours? Sure!

- On November 30, 2017, while exploring in the Gulf of Mexico, we encountered this nearly 30-centimeter (12-inch) giant deep-sea isopod (Bathynomus giganteus) at a depth of ~810 meters (2,660 feet). These giant isopods are a great example of deep-sea gigantism, as most isopods in the deep sea are much smaller, about the size of your thumbnail. While we often see these giant underwater 'pill bugs' resting on the seafloor, we don't always get to see them swim, so seeing this isopod come in for a landing was exciting!

"Charismatic"
Did he give an interview? 😂
Giant isopods be like
Giant isopod noise
THAT'S A GOOD DOG
I like how it swims.
It holds itself legs in and uses that under tail to swim.
That's cool.
Real isopod hours. Thank you for your contribution.
Awesome landing. Back legs pedal, Front legs folded up until touchdown.
These have got to be my favourite creatures to ever exist. They remind me of an alien spacecraft and I love the way that they swim. Overall they are super cool!
Who up rn scavenging the seabed 💯
They can crawl but have boosters for flight, so cute. I love them
I have one In animal crossing, he’s my room mate. He has the entire top floor to himself
Nice Pokémon!
What if...THESE STARTED TO COME ON LAND AND WERE GIANT ROLLY POLLIES :000
HE'S SUCH A GOOD BOY GIVE HIM A TREAT
It is isopod hours my dudes.
I want to hug them
Wow, i never knew that those tiny ones had a bigger version living in the seas.
How can an isopod be the stuff of nightmares for some people? This lovely crustacean is the greatest thing on earth!!
I just imagine someone walking one in a park with a leash attached to it like a dog. 😂
"Oh, don't mind me. Just taking Larry for a walk."
its cute
I found a wimpod, time to soft reset!

I want one in a tank in my livingroom. It's soooo cute!
wow this was an excellent find! I'm certainly one of those people who can't get enough of arthropods such as these and this is really amazing to see! Thanks for sharing :)
they’re so cute! especially when they swim!
I love this animal they are so cute.🥰
I had no idea they could swim like that. I always imagined they just crawled around on the bottom.
I'm totally in the "They're really cute!" camp!
same
Were those some shrimp at the end? One of the shadows darted away. The other guy landed on the isopod's back.
WimpyMcWeaksauce I saw that too... And am not sure?
Beautiful creatures. Bringing forth the real isopod hours
Haha large boi
Aaaaah :DDDD
My favorite critter :DDDDD
Never saw it swiming, it's even better :DDDDDD
I want to be reincarnated as a giant isopod when I die. Truly an ideal life.
I was DMed this on discord from the Isopod Congregation. I’m impressed.
Been watching y'all all week! Amazing stuff! Thank you for the video! It is so cool listening to the scientist and engineers working together! Keep up the excellent work!

I like how it soft crashes before deploying it's landing gear. =)
The life is the most biggest mystery of universe
Just a really amazing prehistoric looking creature. I bet if I googled this thing they'd be recorded as being around waaaaaaaaay "back in the day". Fascinating to me to see something like this alive after looking at fossils of things so similar looking being alive pre-humans.
Giant isopods are adorable!
Really cool to see one swimming.
this is one of the best videos of all time.
Ever notice how sea creatures' bodies are like vehicles? Everything they do, they make it look effortless.
So cool, never knew they could swim.
Wonderful stuff. Thank you.
look at that isopod swim. wow thats wonderful
this is truly a giant isopod moment
People who came to this video after watching isopod could be dream
👇🏼
congrats on your evolution, big guy.
REAL ISOPOD HOURS 😂👌💯💯💯
By far the most charismatic isopod out there
real isopod hours -IronManLOHH
When it’s swimming it looks like one of those rebel transports in A New Hope ^^
I found one of these when I was a kid, brings back memories haha
Simply fantastic lad
A wild Wimpod appear!
I love how enthusiastic the narrator is to see one of these guys. She's definitely one of us.
I love how they're just a gigantic version of the woodlice.
I really loved the way they swim.
Giant isopods are awesome!
I love these guys! 🥺
Giant aquatic armadillo bugs 🥺
So cute!!!
youtube knows what content i want
I like the way the exoskeleton segments furl back gradually
ah, i love isopods, one of my favourites creatures in the world.
He’s so dignified
What a splindle, i love him
"They're very charismatic."
*Chases ROV's, bites cables and kills sharks*
Yeah, not too sure about that charismatic part. But hey, they're a spoof playable race in Stars in Shadow. So success I guess?
This ancient creature predates us, yet we love it so
I can't believe I missed this dive. :-(
it's interesting how on the outside the tail segments and the positions of its antennae are the only thing that differs from sowbugs\pillbugs.
Here's one irony. When I looked up isopods online for species the information is so poor for USA lol.
They are my favorite sea animals that aren't extinct
Another happy landing.
I looked this up because my friend said the way they swim is cool. I have to agree.
The amount of disappointment that giant isopod had when they realized the submarine wasnt a dead animal or food
I wonder if its opinion would change if it knew the woman on the sub thought it was awesome?
Even though I'm not a fan of isopods why is this one the most cute
Aww! So cute! 💖
A new Pokemon!!
am i the only one who wants it as a pet? Cause it looks kinda cute, im also deathly afraid of bugs but this lil guy is kinda cute
It's a crustacean, not an insect or arachnid. Maybe that's the difference?
Did Love Live brought you here?

The first time I caught one of those guys in Animal Crossing, I had no idea what it was, screamed in fear, and nearly chucked my 3DS across the room
they are gorgeous
I've only seen dead Isopods. A moving one? Hell nah, gotta go fast
They're just so CUTE!
Almost a trilobite! (Yes I know they aren't almost a trilobite, but they do come close to looking like one. )
I love him
Me too
Idk why but this thing looks more ancient than other animals.
I googled it once. If I remember correctly they've been around about a hundred million years.
Beautiful creature
Real isopod hours!
He's calm, I want to pet him
I seen the footage of Challngers deep. The 3 different sizes of isopods was cool but even better was the snail fish that ate the smaller isopods
Isopods Are HOTT
Thank you
They are related to Pill Bugs, because pill bugs are crustaceans.
giant isopods are so cuteee!
now THAT is what i want to see
I didn’t search for this but I’m going to watch it anyways.
I have an undying love for Isopods
It's real isopod hours
