This comes courtesy of Jody Martin (LACM), from a friend of his. Apparently this is video shot from a robotic probe doing work on an undersea pipe.

The enclosed note reads:

[quote:5c009]This is a video taken in 6000 feet of water. An undersea robot is sawing a 3mm wide slit (1/10th of an inch ... remember that width) in a pipeline. The pressure inside the pipeline is 0 psig, while the pressure outside is 2700 psi, or 1.3 tons per square inch. Then a crab comes along....[/quote:5c009]

I figure this is probably not a good sequence to feature in the "Hall of Ocean Life" at the Museum. hake:
