An old sailor’s legend about flying squid, long thought to be the product of too much drink and too many days at sea, have been proven to be a reality by Japanese scientists.  They observed, for the first recorded time, Todradeos Pacificus propel themselves out of the water by shooting a stream of pressurized water from their body.  The squid then spread their arms to reveal web like appendages that act as wings.  They flew an average of 100 feet in three seconds.  

What next, BIG FOOT?
