Octopus Steals Camera

[cyaneus]

Apologies if this isn't WTF-worthy, but I have always been under the impression that octopodes were very shy creatures. This octopus, however, didn't hesitate to approach a free diver and wrestle his camera out of his hands, then "dash off with it like a thief."

What it planned to film with the camera, we may never know.

If there is anyone who still doesn't believe we're fucked once these guys get organized with the crows, that person... is probably a lot more normal than me. Fine, whatever. STILL TRUE

What is there to be said about a marine creature that can open an aquarium hood, crawl across the floor, climb up and into another tank on the other side of the room and eat the residents?

... aside from "RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY!"

Wait what?! That just freaked me out.

I've read accounts about octopodes doing just this, but of course, I can't find a link now that I need one.
