81. What is a kraken?


Kraken from ancient Mythologies 
In olden days, myths and legends about dangerous sea-creatures reflected their perils of ocean travel. Norwegian legends told of the kraken, a giant, many-armed monster that rose from the depths, wrapped its tentacles around unlucky ships, and dragged them down to the bottom. This legend is thought to be based on sightings of the mysterious deep-sea squid.
