Release the KRAKEN! Wait, release the Kraken! No, release the kraken! Ok, just give him a small hug, mini-kraken...
 
The guy didn't even notice! :rofl3:
Exactly this. This video popped up on my phone a few minutes ago with the headline of "TERRIFYING GIANT OCTOPUS ATTACK!" I watched the video and it had captions on it like how the octopus had his tentacles wrapped around the diver and was trying to drag him down to the bottom. I was like o_O and thought, "Yeah, he looks absolutely horrified by that attack." :wink:

Yep, sensationalist journalism at it's best.
 
He was swimming with his hands.
Dive buddy behind didn't seem to notice the octo at all and videographer obviously wasn't concerned in the least. Sure wish could have seen from the onset

Small hug?? Looked more like sexual assault.
Me: How was your dive John?
John: Really good until a mini Kraken molested me!
Me: Cool...at least it wasn't another Dolphin.
John: Yeah!
