Octopus mugs diver, steals his video camera

[CaptFlyingDutchman]

Octopuses are really smart animals, especially considering they are invertebrates. This one decided it liked a diver's shiny new camera and decided to steal it. A chase scene ensues and the diver eventually catches back up with the octopus.

Man, someone sent this to me a few days ago..... I LOVE IT. The running commentaries on the bottom are the best. Cheeky.

Thats cool! I have yet to see an Octo that big. only small ones.

I guess nobody ever told him to just clamp his hand down on top of the octo's head, then tickle it between the eyes. They stay right in place when you do that, and eventually relax.

It's still a great video tho, smiling the whole time.

Peace,
