This rare footage of a gigantic sunfish was captured on film by photographer Miguel Pereira off the coast of Portugal.
“A few days before, my camera was damaged when the underwater housing flooded. The bad luck was compensated when diving with a GoPro I saw the giant Sunfish almost at surface level and practically static. The Sunfish seemed not to be bothered by our presence at all and followed us for 15 minutes.” -Miguel Pereira

Migas
Location | Distribution: Africa
The migas is said to be a huge, freshwater-dwelling octopus that comes from African folklore.
The migas dwells in swamps and deep lakes, and is said to have more tentacles than a regular octopus, ranging from twenty, to almost a hundred.
Even if they dwell in such conditions, they have the ability to squeeze through the tightest of spaces, like normal octopuses, and hide in very shallow lakes.
They say that anything it will come in contact with will instantly become its target, and the migas will tear its victim to shreds.
