Good morning your friend @zeusfrank talks to you in this post that talks about the myth of kraken, I hope you like it ...

The kraken is a marine creature of the Scandinavian mythology commonly described as a type of octopus or giant squid that, emerging from the depths, attacked ships and devoured the sailors. The legend may actually have originated from sightings of giant royal squids that would be estimated to be 13 to 15 meters long, including the tentacles

The Kraken is probably the greatest monster ever imagined by mankind.
In Nordic folklore it is said that it roams from Norway to Iceland and even reaches Greenland.
He has the gift of harassing ships and many pseudoscientific reports (including those of naval officers) said he attacked them with his strong arms. If this strategy failed him, the beast would begin to swim in circles around the ship, creating a strong whirlpool to sink it.fuente
Of course, to be appreciated as such, a monster needs to have a taste for human flesh. Legends say that the Kraken could devour the entire crew of a ship in one bite.fuente
Like many legends, the Kraken began with something real, based on sightings of an animal: the giant squid.fuente
For the ancient sailors, the sea was treacherous and dangerous, hiding a horde of monsters in their inconceivable depths. Any encounter with an unknown animal could acquire a mythological connotation in the stories of sailors. After all, the story grows during the narrative.fuente
