    Sure they aren't murders?

    What if they have really big hands?

    That's why I included "(as far as anyone can guess...)".

    What's for certain is that the feet weren't cut off, from what's been analyzed of them.

    Based on what images I've seen of giant squids that washed ashore after they died, that eye looks like it might belong to a giant squid. Which is actually pretty cool considering how far down they live. For that to have washed up on the beach is pretty amazing. I mean, giant squids themselves hardly ever wash up on shore, so the chance of an eyeball making it is even slimmer.

    Talk about something you can't unsee:) 

    My guess would be a big squid.
