Thanks for your concern, but I'm quite fine with it. I've known about those sites for a while.

Thankfully I was able to find your Deviantart through Google Search. It's a great piece of art and you should be credited for it.

Hmm, well if you believe in evolution, it probably evolved to a bigger size to survive and catch bigger animals. And to have few natural enemies. I Also tried to draw one of these...but doesn't look as good as yours.

When it comes to evolution, an animal will not always grow bigger over time since there are costs to being big in addition to the benefits. A larger creature will have to eat more in order to survive, for example. Not to mention that some of the most successful organisms alive are microscopic (bacteria). If the benefits to being big outweigh the costs, then yes, it could get bigger.

well, the ocean is contains the most diverse and largest group of creatures on earth, or even the universe. So i'm guessing finding food source isn't really a problem even for giant animals. And yeah there are disadvantages...like being a bigger prey. The only thing that's bothering me is that if it does exist, and it is as big as wikipedia says it is. Why is there only a few sightings?

Well, if it is a deep sea creature, it could easily remain out of sight since it doesn't have to surface to breathe. Of course, it might have to breathe air. We just don't know.

Personally, I think they are a species of giant centipede that was said to live like 50million years ago or something like that. Proabably were adapted to swim.

The only giant critter like that I can think of is Arthropleura. It was only 7 or 8 feet long, though.
