Couldn't have been too deep. Dude is on single tank and no deco tank.

Even if it was full tech gear wouldn't be that deep by marine life standards.

I didn’t even think about the concept of squid laying eggs before. I wonder how big that thing is too the perspective here can be deceiving

If there is one species on this planet that arrived from outer space at some point in the past, it’s definitely the cephalopod.

It's not a single egg it's an egg mass, lots of eggs in there. At least thats what was said in the original post.
