That's amazing she took an interest in you and came out to interact. Octopuses are such fascinating animals. It is astounding that an animal without a spine could be so intelligent.
No spine, all brain!
There’s a basic flaw in your hypothesis in that humans have spines and PUH-LENTY of them are dumber than a box of rocks.
No vertebrae not no spine... With all their brains, they MUST have huge data bus in between too.
A brain for every leg. That's why they move like that, each leg questing out on it's own.
It seems to me when they are happy, their legs curl up from the ends on in.
@@littlemrpinkness295 So THAT'S why they curl their arms!
Human: _observes_
Octopus: _I N T E R E S T I N G_
when it swam upwards at 2:45 it was amazing. It's like she was going "Ok, I see that you are interesting and I will swim up and show you what I got as well." Too cool, even second hand viewing it's great, I can't imagine what it's like in person.
I love how octopus behave like how humans do to dog. We just want to touch them and cuddle them, and take them for walks.
Exactly what's happening here, but the octopus is the human.
wow, just wow.
She was SO curious! She tried to explore and interact with you!
Such a precious encounter and amazing experience!
This may have been an Octopus that had been rescued and returned to sea after being cared for. It seemed too comfortable and willing to interact with humans, playfully, for it to not have had prior positive experiences with humans. Kept Ocotopus's are known to form great bonds of friendship with humans. This one appears to have no fear of humans and even wants to play. How cool is that?
To Octopus, we are bubble breathing sea dragons
Aldiggy2000 we're weird crippled squids for them.
😂😂 Well-said!
Who knows what they think of us humans?, they seem to like us tho they're very curious towards us
I know they're highly intelligent and very friendly but i'd have shit myself if that came swimming behind me
why? it's silly notions like this that keep humans from actually being smart, just because something is furry and 'cute looking' (to you) doesn't mean said animals is kind. Take tabbies for example, they get fed by their owners, then allowed out to sh*t in other peoples gardens and hunt for sport all the struggling bird and small mammal populations.....but people think that's okay becuase they look 'cute'....Most people are downright morons!
No wonder Austrailia is culling over 1 millions feral cats, they wreak havoc and are one of the reasons the Earth is now in the next mass-extinction.
@@bujfvjg7222 Okay, you have my interest. So pet cats really are taking over the world by exterminating once species at a time? But for real though got any links I'd be willing to kill a day looking into that theory.
I wonderif they can smell us, like smell emotion, mood, like dogs can, smell and feel heartwaves ect, totally fascinating animals
Good question! They're capable of reading body language of both other animals and humans, so perhaps?
@@popsicIes just so,, very extreme and intilligente animal we hardly know anything of.. easter greetings🙏
They sense through their tentacles, one reason why they are always grabbing things.
Octopi (octopuses) are my favorite creatures, besides that giant pacific octopus, that is AMaZING! Fast fact guys!: giant pacific octopus are the largest octopi in the world!
Actually, there's a sub-species of giant pacific octopus just called the giant octopus, which is known to be a few feet longer
octopussy's
glad you got to keep the camera! xD
Wow Peter!! What a phenomenal encounter!! Very unusual behaviour. Gotta love this wonderful ocean :)
omg, it looks like it was trying to communicate with you guys
They are the most beautiful creatures God ever created. I love octopuses.
Beautiful! What an amazing encounter, you're very lucky! Are you not worried about it ripping your masks off tho? I've heard that can happen...
omg pause at2:56 it looks so fucking elegant like its doing ballet LOL xD
I just went to an Aquarium for the first time in years and my octopus love has been rekindled. The way they change color instatly astounds me. It is my dream to do what these guys are doing one day.
i wonder if in a place where not many divers go.. if a big octopus sees a random human for the first time and it blows it's mind lol. like to the octopus we might look like aliens with the scuba tanks and everything. and big octopus like this are probably pretty smart and resilient and there aren't many things around that could be a big threat to it (compared to a lot of sea creatures). so maybe creatures like that (dolphins too) are less skittish by nature and more curious in investigating things they see that are interesting
swish007 I would have to say that’s probably accurate! I think that’s the reason so many octopodes and cuttlefish of all sizes are often so curious. And they’re just like we are: some of them just freak out and run at first sight, but others can’t resist their curiosity-they have to know what we are. And they can tell, too, after observing us only briefly, that we are also intelligent, and this further stokes their curiosity.
Initially shy, but proves to be a talented ballerina with artistic moves!
We've got to save the planet and all the oceans for these wonders.
This is the best octopus video I've ever seen.
4:02 IT'S COMIN RIGHT FOR US! /panic
I love this video, thanks a lot for sharing it!
A word of warning to the octopus: Don't trust any humans, they may capture & sell or kill you after the camera's turned off.
OMG I love this beautiful creature!❤
What an amazing experience
Very cool 😎
they are such magnificent creatures!
What a remarkable creature! Loved the way she/he first touched you drew away and backed into their safe space almost as if to say ewwwww. Beautiful! Thank you for the share! 💙
Are you scared to assume the gender of an animal.
That's so cool I love that. Thanks for sharing Rendezvousdiving
So majestic.
Is it true they can taste with their suction cups?
yes they can regularly renew the lining inside the cups
yup, which means if they LATCH onto you and DONT let go, it wants to eat you.
so you know, rip it of ya
That is amazing and beautiful
Incredible - what a beautiful interaction
Great video...look forward to diving a reef named after me (Diplock!) this coming year!!
Did you do it?
She's showing off. You made a friend!
The octopus is white and pink. It reached it's arms out so far in the beginning. Like it was just feeling you out lol
I'd love to know, would it really cause harm if you were to let it swim up to you? The divers, here, swam away, understandably, but it seemed curious.... or was it?
No normally not. They are just curious and this one actually sat on my head feeling the camera. No aggression at all. The other divers had the first ocean dive ever and did not realize the rarity of this.
She was really curious.
Give us the natural sea sounds, please, instead of the obnoxious music. Thanks.
Beautiful, fascinating creatures, aren't they. Does this one have a damaged tentacle?
Everytime I swim with octopus I think of the pirates of the Caribbean
What an amazing video..!!
Oh, to be able to float so easily and gracefully…!
Ok just to compare. If you are an alien creature and encountering a wild human in a cave, living alone, I have hard time imagining human to be friendly, meaning without ability to speak.
So my thinking is that octopi are much smarter than humans, because just how smart and aware one isolated individual of them behaves when encountering species that it hasn’t seen before, or know anything about
Thought it was part 2 of octopus takes camera again
EDIT: also HOW DO PEOPLE BE KNOWING THIS OCTOPI'S GENDER?!
That is amazing and beautiful nature at it's very best
This is just too beautiful.
This is beautiful. I wish I were you......
He's big and he knows it
Amazing wonderful beautiful animal
Way cool! Thanks for sharing.
Wow. Insane
Couldn't see its eyes...???
to anyone thinking that its making you hungry? THAT is the LEAST appetizing thing in history
plus the thing is kinda smart, shame to kill it
That is her mouth though!
I love catching octopus !!!
they look like Poseidon
It would be so cool to have an octopus companion... sigh. 😀
They're aliens..
Like it. But hate the music. Sometimes listening to you breathe and bubbles are nice
breathing is nice to listen to?
not judging, but..
no,no im judging
Majestic
Awesome, and those things are perfectly capable and sometimes do rip oxygen masks off, just sayin...
Não.
This music 😬
❤
AHHHHHHHHHHH ITS EATING ME DX NOOOOOOOOO Lol
Would have been nice if the divers weren't complete cowards.
love octopie (I think thats plural)
There are only 2 plurals, octopedes, and octopuses, but octopi is not one of them
Truly hard to believe such a infinitely gorgeous creature exists
She was a little guarded at first but so curious !
This is so lovely. My favorite sea creature ♡♡♡
So amazing! So utterly amazing!
horrible sound track. Nature vs techno. No contest :(
Oh, and there's a fascinating interaction between octopus and human, but no, it's all about the music... Why don't you just mute it?
Personally I thought it fit perfectly.... other worldly in a fascinating and sensuous way,
This was far far from techno, my dude
I'm curious that you call this octopus a female. I used to have a pet octopus, and have done a bunch of reading about them. As far as I know, unless you have dna to test, you can only tell an octopus's gender at the end of their life, when they have their one and only reproductive cycle. At this point, the suckers on one of the legs of the male rearrange to make room for a channel for semen delivery. Until that point, males and females look identical. So unless you have some way of knowing that this octopus was at the end of its life, you can't know whether you are looking at a female or at a male that hasn't yet developed it's secondary sex characteristics. Unless it is different in some way with giant pacific octopuses? Can you explain?
From what I've read about Giant Pacific octopuses specifically, the males can be recognized by the third right arm that has no suckers at the tip even as a young, immature octopus. He will usually keep this arm curled to protect it.
I dont know why it matters, they are still intelligent animals
It appears to be so curious. It surely did not do this behavior for food? In the past did it perhaps get fed? Octopus have memory capability. I enjoyed seeing this behavior. Thanks for sharing.
Sorry but that was freaking me out.
I kept waiting for it to latch onto you, lol.
Maybe if I were to touch one, I wouldn't find them quite so repulsive and scary.
I actually just got back from petting an octopus, and I can tell you, they're not repulsive, but they are strong
They're solid muscle. I was cringing when he got so close, while she was cornered-that's one of the few times a giant octopus may become a danger to humans. They've been known to drown, or strangle people who block the exit to their caves.
to many arms
now that camo? impressive. could try that on a tank to conceal it
stop swimming away from it lol
That is soooo amazing. Octopi are incredible creatures. Their shape is temporary because they can change at will. Stretching, twisting, flexing, and bending with ease. Then there's that beautiful camouflage. They blend with the surroundings. Amazing.
Lord, this is one very big new friend!!
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💙💙💙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙
What a beautiful lady! There were moments my heart beat hard-out of admiration and affection. What a lovely, good-natured octopus.
I could have watched that forever. Soooooo beautiful.
It took a looooong time to let this octopus feel comfortable with them. It was worth every second.
Graceful dancer 🐙
Excellent capture of such a great experience. I hope to see a GPO out of it's den some day but I've only seen smaller red octopus out and swimming. But still, nothing like this. 👌
1:00 I like how when the octopus feels that someone is there, it gets scared and hides in the rocks and camouflages itself.
1:37 Once it realizes the divers have no interest in eating it, it immediately gets excited and wants to get to know everything it can about them, their equipment, and their camera. It's like, "cool, what are you?"
Octopuses are such curious and beautiful creatures 🐙
WE are the ALIENS in THEIR WORLD.... they behave VERY friendly.... Humans can learn ALOT from THEM.....
It felt, at times, like she was posing... 'Look how grand and beautiful I am'. I know I am anthropomorphizing, but she was.. grand and beautiful.
Such wondrous, beautiful and intelligent creatures! People shouldn't eat them!
I wish someone could work out how to delay sexual maturity in these creatures, so that we could see how they would develop as they get older: both sexes die after reproducing 😕
Should've stayed a away, left it in peace
Sounds like a Gran Turismo menu
Love
Wow, I had never seen an octopus as large as this one, it's almost scary. I wonder how much it weighted.
I love the music you set it to.
Sounds a little bit like porn music. :D
Curiosity is a sign of intelligence, I'm pretty sure we will discover those animals are smarter than we though...
Wonderful animals , AND their INTELLIGENCE is superb ! BIBLE QUOTE : " ALL ANIMALS ARE MINE SAYETH THE HOLY LORD GOD " ( A. L. L. ANIMALS ! ! ) X. OCEAN TASK SHIP CAPT. P. van ESS. U S M M
