For centuries, sailors have returned from the open ocean with stories of enormous creatures lurking beneath their ships. Among the most enduring are accounts of giant squid, animals once dismissed as maritime legends but now known to inhabit the deepest reaches of the world's oceans. Yet some historical encounters suggest that these creatures may have been far more dangerous than we understand.
Drawing from firsthand naval accounts, historical newspaper reports, and scientific investigations spanning more than a century, this episode explores terrifying encounters with giant squid in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans — from shipwrecked survivors allegedly dragged beneath the waves to naval vessels attacked by enormous tentacled creatures, including a mysterious incident involving a U.S. Navy warship during the Cold War.
