A diver in Egypt’s Red Sea has captured footage of an up close and personal swim alongside a large moray eel (watch, runtime: 00:28). The eels, which can grow to up to 3 meters and weigh roughly 30 kg, are often found moving through coral reefs, their flexible bodies allowing them to wend their way through the narrowest passages.
