The warped world of deep-sea fish
Video presented by James Maclaine
The deep sea is one of the most unexplored areas left on the planet. In this huge, dark and extreme environment, where life exists in slow motion, many strange and wonderful creatures exist that are quite unlike any of those found nearer the surface. The Natural History Museum has some of the biggest and most important collections of deep-sea animals in the world. Join Museum fish curator James Maclaine in an examination of some of the more bizarre fish specimens that have come from the various depths of Earth's final frontier.
