TEDTalk: How We Found the Giant Squid by Edith Widder

Last year marine biologist Edith Widder was a key member in the team that successfully filmed the giant squid in its natural habitat for the first time. In this fascinating TEDTalk, Widder describes the expedition and the technological innovations that led to the discovery. The squid footage was featured in the recent Discovery Channel documentary Monster Squid: The Giant Is Real.
