The Mythical Kraken is He Really Just a Myth.

The mystical kraken we all know of, the big octopus which sunk ships and  fought with sperm whales.
The Vikings told stories about this big fellow but now almost nobody believes in his existence Well I’m going to show you that it isn’t all fake.

The kraken was supposed to be very large, strong and had tentacles now you would think that is impossible right?
Well think again, there is an animal which is big, strong and has tentacles, namely the giant squid.
This animal is can grow up to 43 feet as a male which is 13 meters which is bigger than your house. The female is no small squid either, she can grow up to 33 feet which is 10 meters and also bigger than your house.

Now we have the large animal with tentacles but is it that strong?
The answer is: yes it is.
He is able fight with a sperm whale just like the myth says.
Some scientists have simulated this fight:

Pretty impressive for a squid, isn’t it?

Here is another video not about the giant squid but about a family member the octopus which is smaller but still was able to pull this off:

So what could the giant squid do to them?

Now you know this myth isn’t all just a story, it is based on the truth it may be exaggerated a little but there is some truth behind it.
If you ever go on a ship be aware of the giant squid.
