Single-celled organism about 3 centimeters around?

Has anyone else heard anything about these single-celled critters? I found this article after a friend brought it up in conversation and I decided to look into it
Seems pretty freakin' cool!

Single-Celled Giant Upends Early Evolution: Discovery News

The article isn't very long: take a look!
It seems like they're roughly the size of a grape, made up of a single cell, and get nutrients from rolling around on the sea floor.

Friend Stellify,

Appears interesting as all life evolved from a certain single celled creature. Without that we would not have been here.

Love & rgds

All power to Gromia!

Now a fun question.
There exists today a single cell weighing three pounds or more.
What is it?
