I got the feeling it a speacil effect thing.. .. Can anybody provide a real proof of this thing.. it is really scary.. I'm going to show it to my father latter on because he is a diver and propebly knows a thing or two.

If you watch closely when it's in reverse, look at the bottom right corner of the plant and you can make out its tentacle after it goes back to it's camo state. You might have to watch it a couple of times to see it.

man, ive never heard of an octopus being able to do that. I wonder if that black thing was the octopus or the camera man shitting his pants.

[DR.GONZO]

look at this rock

nah It's a octupus I just did a quick image search, And that is one of ther first ones I found, I am going to look for more.

[styla21]

If i was a betting man, i'd be putting my money on this is a real octopus. I did marine studies for a few years and the amount of marine creatures that can do these insanely cool sort of things would suprise you. :fadein:

[ARMAN]

:shock: isnt it a fake vid? Cant imagine this beeing real, then I would load full pynts of shit if I would see that :mrgreen:

just looking for camo pics of octupus, and other creatures in the sea 8)

The video won't work on my shitbox, but I'm guessing the octopus changed colors exremely fast?
If so, they aren't the only animal that can do it. Squid are best known for it. They flash different colors repeatedly.

If you want to see something cool, check out Mimic Octopusses. I would hope their name gives away it's abilities.

No too long ago, an octopus was filmed walking on two legs to escape. Might not seem important, but it's the first time it's been seen. Not counting the fact that bipedal movement is pretty rare. I'll see if I can dig up the video, it's pretty cool. It balls itself up and starts running.

[DR.GONZO]

^^^ When I found that vidoeo someone replied I think that's a mimic. I dunno though

[DR.GONZO]

I found it! check out this link, was in the Grand Cayman Island, Caribbean

that's crazy

[Chaos in 1983!]

Yup IMO it is real...I've seen octopusses do amazing things while diving...you can't really tell they're there until they decide it's too close...

And if you think this octopuss is impressive, you should check out this other octopuss like creature called the sepia or sephia...those things are unbelievable, sadly I haven't seen them while diving...

[ZfrkS62]

that is awesome! i didn't know they could do that :D

What does the Sephia do? Going transparent (translucent?) is pretty damn cool in my book, i struggle to figure out what could top it! :P

[ZfrkS62]

Have any of you guys seen the vids of the Giant Octupuses in the Pugeot Sound? I rememebr about 6 or 7 years back one decided to say hello to a diver near the Port of Seattle by attatching itself to the divers goggles for a moment before calmly swimming away.
