it's a Moray Eel, taken in a very dark aquarium.

[–]liftmore 19 points20 points ago

That's a Moray?

[–]brassninja 124 points125 points ago

WHEEENNN THEEEE....MOON HITS YOUR EYE LIKE A BIG PIZZA PIE.....

THAT'S A MORRAY.

[–]troway2223 6 points7 points ago

You know you've become part of the hivemind when you know this will be one of the top comments just by seeing the picture. Jesus Christ. I need to stop coming on here as often.

[–]Nitero -4 points-3 points ago

when your hand's in the cave, suddenly you'll need saved, that's a moray!

[–]CogentPointJones -4 points-3 points ago

Yup, like a piping hot pie covered in molten cheese, POW, "hits" your most sensitive vulnerable parts - That's.... that's amore, that's love.

Love is like a hot pizza to the face, that's what Dean was saying.

[–]jermzdeejd 2 points3 points ago

I thought it was the hybrid alien from "Alien Resurrection", but that is just me.

[–]herboholic 1 point2 points ago

But it doesn't even look like bad joke eel!
It has a human face!!!

[–]herboholic 1 point2 points ago

Unless they're it nostrils or someting.

[–]-Swig- 14 points15 points ago

A moray eel. Nothing to see here. Move along..

[–]iamriot[S] 0 points1 point ago

Looks to me to be out of water. I don't think it's a deformed Moray.

[–]randomherOH 7 points8 points ago

They are both in water. Notice the kelp in the back of the second picture.

[–]xAllyCatx 6 points7 points ago

To me, it looks more like pine trees.

[–]unluckylover0 3 points4 points ago

Zoom in and u can see its neither kelp nor a pine tree, its a moss covered rock, and the reflections at the bottom of the pic shows its behind glass. What ever it is, is in a tank for sure, and that's some breed of eel, but I agree with op, those are eyes up front. U can clearly see pupils and the whites of the eye, and compared to the black holes where there should be eyes, lacks the eye reflection that the "nose" is giving off. It looks like a deformed sea creature.

[–]Norph00 1 point2 points ago

Its a rock illuminated with the same green light that is hitting the eel.

[–]Good2Go5280 15 points16 points ago

A Tool video?

[–]epatti0914 8 points9 points ago

Hopefully that will be the only bowels you ever find this in.

[–]Vileness_fats 3 points4 points ago

This is why I refuse to swim in rivers in New England.

[–]Awkwardlittleboy2112 3 points4 points ago

Well, that and the huge amounts of pollution recently. If you live near the Connecticut River, you know what I mean.

[–]Vileness_fats 1 point2 points ago

I used to. I know what you mean.

[–]SocialismErgalla 0 points1 point ago

Oh dude, it's Kingseeker Frampt and Darkstalker Kaathe. Duh.

[–]sebbiee -1 points0 points ago

Crap its a slitheen call the doctor!

[–]adventurousnails 0 points1 point ago

Am I really the only person to suggest that maybe, just maybe, this is a prop of some sort? The face, and especially the eyes, are VERY humanoid, which I think is pretty unlikely. Just a suggestion.

[–]redjubear -1 points0 points ago

I thought we all agreed tha Matt Damon and Julia Roberts were not allowed to breed!! C'mon people! ...... sigh, i suppose i'm gonna have to be the one that kills that thing? ..... ok ..... pass me my mercy brick.

[–]palmerad239 0 points1 point ago

[–]mixed_drank 0 points1 point ago

THAT'S-A-MORAY

[–]stadiumrat 0 points1 point ago

The fist one looks like the trunk of an elephant. The second is an eel.

[–]Maeve_McAuley[!] 0 points1 point ago

They are Moray Eels. Not very special. Google them.

[–]1AshWilliams1 0 points1 point ago

It is a moray eel, albeit a slightly retarded one but if you do a google image search of creepy moray eel, you'll see the same picture but more of the aquarium it's in with another moray and some fish.

[–]stone-man 1 point2 points ago

Somebody let Ron Jeremy's cock out again?

[–]farkner 1 point2 points ago

The baby from Eraserhead, all grown up!

[–]SSSecret_Squirrel 0 points1 point ago

If you found it in the bowels, it's shit.

[–]Spongyrocks 0 points1 point ago

I knew the Loch Ness monster was real...

[–]BurntTheToast -2 points-1 points ago

It's a moray eel. Easy buttstallion.

[–]nichefiend 0 points1 point ago

Handsome Jack? Is that you?

[–]lostereadamy 0 points1 point ago

I remember this from 4chan back in the day. I've actually been looking for it for a while. Today, OP is not a fag

[–]jetaimemina 0 points1 point ago

You may think those are eyes, but no. Those are its nostrils, the eyes are the dark spots farther behind on its head.

[–]iamriot[S] -4 points-3 points ago

Seeing as how the "nostrils" have the reflective glare only produced by the organization of cones and rods, I'd say you are wrong and those are eyes. The dark spot on the back of the head would be ears to me.

[–]jetaimemina 0 points1 point ago

Yeah I'm talking out my ass, some random internet dude thinks those are gill openings. If the Straightdope forums couldn't figure it out, nobody can. http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=605944

[–]timasuprema 0 points1 point ago

Perhaps it is the legendary Mongolian death worm, which allegedly resides in the Gobi desert http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongolian_death_worm

[–]Shadowglove -1 points0 points ago

When you're down by the sea and an eel bites your knee - that's a moraaay!
