Wow, that's incredible. Just imagine if humans and other animals were able to suffice without oxygen... it'd sure be a different world.

Just goes to show... there doesn't need to the presence of oxygen to have life. It also proves that the possibilities for life out the universe are greater than one might think....

Yeah.... slight science failure here, what's water made of?

I know they're making out it doesn't breath oxygen, since there isn't any gaseous Oxygen available, it instead uses the water and works like a hydrogenosome. Oxygen is still involved i'm afraid...
