Hey guys!

Here is a piece of public domain footage from 1945 that every person who loves 'elephant spiders of the ocean floor' needs to see.

Oh that was funny. Not exactly a David Attenborough commentary, how things have moved on, thank goodness. The commentators ludicrous enthusiasm and hyperbole reminds me of the narrator in the old Batman TV series.

Still, at least it's given me a new signature!

Hah, ok i got it eventually from the main site, dunno why it wouldnt go from your site Rich? No matter, it was a great wee clip from the past and certainly makes me glad to see that things have really moved on.
Amazing how they just 'dealt' with the shark!
