TL;DR Summary

Scuba divers off the coast of Taiwan captured rare footage of an 8ft long giant oarfish, known as an "earthquake fish," which is believed to predict earthquakes. The fish appeared injured, possibly from a shark attack, and had several holes in its body. Oarfish sightings are often associated with natural disasters like tsunamis and earthquakes, although the connection has not been scientifically proven. These elusive creatures typically swim at great depths but occasionally swim nearer the surface, making them rare to see in the wild.
