The footage was taken more than 1,000 metres below the surface of the South Pacific Ocean, with the two-metre squid flashing its photophores - the bioluminescent 'headlights' at the end of its tentacles. The squid's photophores are organs that react with oxygen to create light, and are believed to be the biggest in the animal kingdom. | 10 News | Facebook
