  1. I think I can safely assume it was not a Canadian octopus.

    Where's Lloyd Bridges when you need him?

  2. That's the second time I've seen a video of an octopus taking a camera. Interesting. Are octopi the animal world equivalent of the TSA?

  5. Little doober's got brass cajones. (8 of 'em?) I, too, would've liked to have seen the video he'd take had he been allowed to keep the camera...

  6. Tam- Thank you for finding this and sharing it. I happen to have a friend that works with cameras, and he was doing a time lapse shoot with one that went missing...

    Of course I shared the vid with him and said I may have found the culprit....

  8. That's almost as good as the bear eating the GoPro camera. After seeing that vid it confirmed that I don't ever want to end up in a bear's mouth.

  9. Octopi are supposed to be somewhere in the intelligence range of dolphins, they've been known to unlatch crates and traps to get at whats inside. They're frikkin cool critters, too!

    Does Masaad Ayoob do an underwater weapon retention course?

  13. "Nice. California plates on the car."

    I assume you are referring to the previous video?

    Yes, there are California plates on the car.

    The semipro internets comedy troupe did not re-plate all the cars in the lot with authentic Canadian plates for the two minute YouTube video, eh?

  14. There is a story -- apocryphal, as I cannot verify it -- about a oceanographer who kept a pet octopus in one tank, and some pet crabs in another across the room.

    One fine morning, he came into his office to find a tank noticeably bereft of crabs, and an extremely well fed octopus.

    As near as he could figure, the octopus squeezed itself out of its tank, walked across the floor, climbed into the crabs' tank, ate the crabs, then walked back.
