    It has (looking at the reconstruction) a head like a moray eel. Or maybe a conger eel? Wonder if it is related?

    Guess you could say we're all related, but unless I'm completely wrong, Eusthenopteron, being a lobe-finned fish, would be more closely related to tetrapods (including mammals and therefore, humans) than to modern day bony fish like eels.
