POMPANO BEACH, Fla. - A giant eyeball washed up on a South Florida beach this week.
A person was walking on the beach in Pompano Beach on Wednesday when he saw the giant eyeball in the sand.
He called for help and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission (FWC) responded to take a look.



FWC scientists took possession of the giant eye. They plan to preserve it and have taken it to their lab in St. Petersburg, where they will try to identify what animal it belongs to.
Since it was found on the beach, they believe it comes from a marine animal, possibly a fish.

This has Monty Python skit written all over it.

I believe it came from one of those blue eyed African elephants whilst bathing in the ocean. Whilst bathing, it tripped on a wave, and popped it's eye clean out on a clam it did. Seen it before sir, happens all the time...

Then again, it could be one of those remote control eyes from the DOD black budget. In that case just flip it over, and check for batteries.

If that's the case, we are looking at a newborn's hands. :D

it's a f'ing whale eye or a squid eye.
