She let me pet her and I fell for it. An hour later I noticed my wallet was gone and I had a Visa charge for $100 at Joe's Stone Crab.
hahaha! Wouldn't doubt that!
master thief
zebra3stripes This comment tho 😆
Love me some Joe's Stone Crab!
Hahaaa good one. Next like is 666th.
If you have a chance go see the octopus and let it touch your hand with its tentacles. I'm an old man and about 45 years ago I went to an aquarium along the coast of Oregon that had a large octopus that you could interact with. I put my hand in its tank, which was open on top, and the octopus wrapped its tentacle around my hand very gently. Many years ago but I'll never forget it.
I want an octopus girlfriend :-)
@@mrvn000 me too
Thats so awesome! We'd love to have you join us in OctopusMagic.com
Lee Bordenet. Mr. Bordenet, thank you for your comment! I really enjoyed your comment because it reminds us of things that truly are magical and amazing on this old earth! One of the times I was fortunate enough to visit Oahu, I made a bee line 🐝 to this aquarium that allowed visitors to swim with dolphins. For me, that was my, 'I'll never forget this moment'.... It's interesting that both of us relate to nature more than materialistic items! I live in the Pacific NW, where they have giant octopuses at the aquarium. I haven't been in ages, as I'm old too! But as a tribute to you, I'm going to make the effort and go, as your comment intrigued me! Take care friend!
@@deborahthornton5487 I didn't read your comment until I had written mine. You and I, amazingly, out of all the words in the English language, we pretty much say the same thing.... kinda coincidental....😊🍁🍃🍂🍁
"I need to go to bed. It's getting late."
RUclips: "Want some octopus videos?"
"YES"
3:36 am T_T
Meee😫 i was almost asleep about to shut down my phone then youtube was like... been a while 🤔 how about some relaxing animal vids before bed... 😈 she fell for it again 🤣🤣
4.12 am, I'm almost dead but the power of the cute octopus has kept me here
😂
Mom: IS THAT A HICKEY ON YOUR HAND?!??!
Me: MOM IT WAS AN OCTOPUS I SWEAR
hahahahaha--
Lol!!! Funny
Japan: EVEN BETTER
Chechires World o h
if a octopus got a mosquito bite how would it look how would they scrach it
It's strange how humans can bond with any animal and somehow find them cute even if they look so very different from us
I have also thought they we're so incredible looking! What's even more surprising is the fact that there are Sooooo many different kinds of speices... check out instagram.com/octonation
Because if we think of them as cute and 'lesser', we're less scared/threatened by them
Oh that not strange or interesting at all its normal. You know what is weird? Those same people could be the most racist mofos you could imagine. *That* is strange. and this is coming from a nationalist.
@@tomh.5750 That's not very strange at all. Incomplete knowledge of a person leads to incomplete conclusions. That's all racism boils down to when you get past it all.
Bonding with animals isn't that abnormal either. Other animals in nature often bond with other species. Especially mammals. It's just an instinct. They may see us as cute, the same way we see them as cute, and do what they can to protect us/whatever animal they're with.
I agree! Fun lil' fact on a similar vein:
Elephants find humans cute. We apparently know this because the endorphins they release are the same when we find something cute! And THAT is adorable
It's pretty obvious that Gilligan
likes to be petted. So much we
don't know about them. Her
intelligence and reactions make
her endearing.
Yep! Gilligan would have left if she didn't wanna play.
It's unfortunate that their lifespans are so short. If they lived a few decades instead of just a few years, there would be a lot they could learn.
If you think about it, octopi are sooooo much more smart than any other animal on earth. Look how many limbs they have, plus suction cups, plus infinite movement possibility since they don't have articulations. It's hard for us to even think about how they can move.
What a sweet girl!!😍😍😍🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙
@The main cause of warps in all of reality youre just begging to be conquered by them
I never realised how gentle they are, movies always portray them as monsters.
They truly are beautiful creatures, and we have a responsibility to take care of our oceans.
they really are magnificent !
Makes you realize how mass propaganda can falsely inform the public and how quickly we are to believe it.
Never heard of thwm as being aggressive, always heard of them as smart creatures, where did they portray them as monster? I think you got it confused with the kraken, the kraken btw is based off of collosal squid.
@@apdroidgeek1737 LOL octopus squid, all the same to me.
Yes, Underverse has very unfair portrayal of octopuses. Nightmare is *VERY* unrealistic. Octopuses are magnificent.
(Understanders will understand)
Some person: do you want my hand
Octopus: *y e s*
'YES! How many hands can you spare?'
They did say she was hungry.
"Feed me now darn it!"
Why would such a simple meaningless comment get almost 300 likes?? I'm not being rude I mean I'm asking seriously what is funny about that, there's absolutely no originality or humor in it whatsoever
She doesn't wanna eat, she just wanna play!
She was sooooo playful!
Girls just want to have fun. 😊
Let her go to the ocean!!
@@evalu3260 girls just wanna eat😂😅
henk de steen who are you to speak for All Girls?
Any minute now the octopus will walk out of the tank and say: " I demand to meet with all the world leaders!"
👍🐙
Right!?
@@octopusfanclub The Octopus Kingdom will ask for our surrender.( LOL )
I think she'll demand to be taken to Roswell and given back her flying saucer.
@@kilroy2517 hahaha
The octopus' real name is Karen.
I'm OBSESSED w/ the fact she's _fucking with you._ she's smart enough to realize you're prying your hands off and is yoinking you back in, that's _playing._ she steals SHOES! what motive could one have to steal shoes other than >:3 intent
And the story about the other handler being wrangled by arms while the octopus stole the food! That's insane! They're so smart!
I kept telling myself "okay, okay, only one more minute. For 26 minutes. Octopuses are the COOLEST animal. Thanks for that!
Sure thing!!! feel free to join us at www.OctopusFanClub.com !
Me also.
@Joseph Love You didn't know what?
Surprised you were able to leave
Me too!
"Day 438......they have started bringing in new specimens from the outside for me to examine.....they taste strange......"
OK all joking aside, I never thought an octopus would be a picky eater, wow.
They kinda are! These aquarists feed them only the best!
This comment is the best 👌🏼😂
I have heard of octopuses throwing food they don't like back at their handlers lol
The way she splashes the front tentacles back and forth in the beginning reminds me of demanding food, looks really adorable.
haha- they really come up and immediately get handsy!
Gilligan is *so* delightful. It's incredible for such a solitary creature with no ability for vocalization, octopods are still perfectly capable of communication and bonding. She's purposely seeking out interaction with this new human, and is not only getting to know him in her own way, but is shockingly patient with letting him do his weird human way of getting to know her. How wild is that?
a vid where an octopus isn’t getting eaten alive in my recommended, what good morning
Seriously! So many videos of that on youtube!
Technically they aren't "alive" and aren't in pain or anything (well at least according to our current scientific understanding), It's just that because of they way their brain and nervous system works that they just continue to wiggle around for a while after being cut up.
I personally wouldn't ever eat it and think it's kind of gross eating something that's still wigglying and slithering as you're swallowing it. I don't understand why people think it adds anything to the eating experience, and honestly IMO the majority people who eat them like that do so just because of the shock value.
@@Aevilbeast
It's a disturbing practice that has no place in our modern world.
I recently saw an octopus dreaming! The 'translator' was saying that the octopus was dreaming because it was asleep, yet changing into very interesting colors. They said the octopus was hunting crabs and at one point, caught one, as it changed into yet, more beautiful colors. This video was absolutely fascinating! Thank you! 👇👏💕
@@asmartistenthusiast3469 Wasn't it fascinating!! I only wish it were longer! Thank you for commenting! 👋👇👏✌
It was that guys guess but I thought it was a good interpritation lol. I like to think she thought she was in a giant robot suit with humans in glass aquariums throwing a ball to them telepathically letting her friends know that these humans are gentle just no guns or there dangerous. I guess we dont know really know what they dream of.
@@rachelcoffey8998 telepathically lol this hasn't been proven , infact its stupid
Just found the video! ruclips.net/video/0vKCLJZbytU/видео.html
@@eccentricweirdootaku thanks molly
They're smart enough to want to check you out just because they find you interesting. It'd be cool if we could find a way to communicate with them.
All animals can be communicated with.
"She’s tasting us when she touches us"
Octopus: I CRAVE HUMAN FLESH !!!
Did you all see Gilligan just relax? She wanted more petting... ahhhh, just like a shoulder massage.
When you petted her near her face toward the end near her eyes, you could see her head drop, as she closed her eyes.
Ahhhhhh... How beautiful.
I'm a senior citizen who's been fascinated by these and all sea creatures since I was a child. There's so much we don't know about the octopus. Just watching this video I got the strong sense that she really was as fascinated by you as you were by her. She liked listening to you as much as touching you, and happily let you play with her. This was a wonderful video. Thanks for letting us learn from you guys.
Absolutely rita! would love to have you apart of the fan club! join us at www.OctopusFanClub.com
That’s definitely a sentient life form.
all life is sentient, even botanical life. there are different levels of consciousness not all life forms are complex.
The word you're looking for is sapient, as sentient basically just means that a creature is capable of percieving and responding to outside stimuli. There also are actual forms of non-sentient life, such a sponges, bacteria, and plants. To be specific, creatures that lack a nervous system, and as a result aren't capable of consciousness, are arguably closer to biological machines than a sentient creature.
@@HolyApplebutter plants and bacteria dont respond to outside stimuli? and sea sponges move around the sea floor in search of food...not much of a biologist there, i guess your just "sapient"
@@ozodari6160 First off, we're both sapient. Sentience is the ability to percieve and respond, sapience is the ability to think and reason.
Second, that is not what sponges do. They're filter-feeders, and remain anchored to one point on the sea floor. You might be thinking about sea cucumbers.
As for plants and bacteria, they might respond to certain stimuli, but they have no way of percieving it aside from some extremely basic "senses." I believe in those cases it's more of an automatic response, a venus fly trap works more like a bear trap than it does an animal biting something. I'll admit I'm not hugely knowledgeable on this particular bit, but what I do know is that just about every claim about plants having intelligence or being able to feel this or that is extremely shaky at best. Feel free to correct me though.
@@HolyApplebutter even if a plants consciousness is so simple that is seems like an automatic response to you, the bottom line is that plants do perceive and respond to a number of things.
the majority of actions a human takes would also be deemed automatic or simple. when you drive to the store to get food, go shopping and come back put it in the oven and sit on the couch and watch tv, does that seem like higher consciousness to you?
or what about when people spend 5-6 hours on a cell phone scrolling up with one finger and hitting the like button when their dick gets hard.
no, but thats about as ingenuitive and complex as most americans get.
also i checked the definition for sapient and i know what sentient means. perhaps you should aswell.
i cannot talk with you about something you dont know the meaning of.
I wonder what they think when they see us?
Like “THESE FREAKS ARE MISSING FOUR LEGS!” XD
She’s VERY playful and cheeky - she knows exactly what she’s doing when she grabs the guy “You WILL cuddle me!”
Brings back a great memory on the beach as a kid, found a small octopus trapped in a very shallow tidepool and it didn't look very healthy was balled up and not moving, unfortunately this was before I had a smartphone so I couldn't look it up or take a photo but I took a small flat rock and gently scooped it up (wasn't sure if it was toxic/poisonous I was a kid after all) and carried it a few feet back to the ocean and it immediately stretched out and looked so much bigger and colorful than it did at first and then a few moments later it was gone but even that short time with it was so great and memorable. Seems like a fun job although Gilligan is a bit big and intimidating! Lol thanks for the video and thanks to everyone involved in caring for these incredible animals
I want an octopus... I only wish their lifespan was longer than 3 years... just imagine what kind of relationship you could develop over a decade with such a smart species. I absolutely love them!
Ugh-- it would be amazing to find out!
They should be FREE not locked in a pool in your house
@Em Em: Absolutely!
@@The-Cat man he didnt mean nothing negative by it, dont be like that
Only 3 years!? I didn't know that. That's probably for the best since they're really smart, they'd probably take over the world with more time lol
how on Earth (if on earth at all) do you evolve into that? we're lucky they didn't conquer fire. How do you even contemplate a eight legged , nine brained, three hearted paradigm? absolutely amazing! thanks for this upload!
manlypedro75 they didn’t conquer fire because they are aquatic
@@overlord-6644 Thanks captain.
researchers have found that their genetic make-up is from space... not from here on Earth
Hello Sweetheart everyone dies
@@theburgercam they are mollusk, if octopus have genes from space so is the clams and the snails
When the octopus stick's the way it does, the sound reminded me of pulling up my bathmat!!! Beautiful creature.
🐙octopus
😅 exactly that
"Please, by all means, scratch my belly and ignore all the suckers in the middle. Trust me"
Hard to notice where her belly is, considering its her mouth
Imagine if it was something....else.....
Hell nah! I know what they have as "mouth" and i feel a bit uncomfortable about it when she pulls his arm close
absolutely amazing animals. They seem to be emotionally connected and very aware! Communicators!
You can tell when they make eye contact!
The way she responds to being petted is amazing. She’s communicating with her people very clearly. She likes being touched.
It’s not fair that these animals have such a short lifespan (relative to ours, anyway). Such beauty & intelligence should be given the chance to last more than 2-3 years. They’ve been my favorite animal for most of my life, & after each time I see videos of them it gets even better 💙🐙💙 love you, OctoNation.
Love you back-- and we feel the same re: lifespan-- would love to have you join us here -- octopusfanclub.com
if they lived any longer they would probably take over the world and be the ruling species with all that accumulated experience and physical growth haha
Brainless Jellyfish: it's not fair that Chris Dunn doesn't live forever like me
Chris Dunn: it's not fair that Gillian has such a short lifespan (relative to me)
Gillian: it's not fair that i have to live in this 64 ft² box (i hope i'm not a jellyfish)
Its not fair that Humans put them in cages either still you dont care.
You basically say " Damn my pet is die to fast i want it longer! "
Youre sick
@@sonicartzldesignerclan5763I agree. And keeping them captive in a tank is criminal. Total exploitation.
The way the guy is constantly having to peel his hands out of her tentacles is giving me anxiety.
Thanks for having this video to introduce people to one of the earths most beautiful creatures.
I love watching these kinds of things that have smart, intelligent brains and have feelings on humans and they love humans when treated them good. I hate people killing wonderful creatures.
Thanks for watching!
the intelligence is amazing, especially the calmness and way she interacts so willingly. awesome.
I hate to think it, but she's probably really bored...
Just love them. Their interactions with humans and their curiosity amaze me.
Alternative title: “giant pacific octopus playing with its food”
lol
After her head being stroked, I've noticed she wipes herself. Is she redistributing her own slime/antibacterial? Great job you found yourselves!
Fact: one of the octopuses tentacles is actually it's reproductive organ
@@hikolanikola8775 pretty sure only males have that -- this is a female.
what happens if you just let it grasp you without trying to take all the suction cups off?
She would use me as leverage to climb out, lol.
I was wondering that too
@@octopusfanclub Hahaha okay, then what?
@@DontWatchAdsJustRefresh take over the world
That is how the world ends... lol
Replay: She seems sweet, relatively calm for a giant octopus. Seems as if she enjoys interaction very much. Good on you guys for keeping her entertained.🤗
Thanks! Octopuses are endlessly fascinating! www.OctopusFanClub.com
set her free
@@andydudley1775 well she will actually live a longer and happier life in captivity not that a year + is long. Anyway, octopus is delicious.
I found a red octopus the other day on the beach i thought it was dead but it pretty soon showed me it was alive and awaiting the incoming tide. It was the most satisfying thing ever to pet. I called him Octavian! Though in retrospect I did not and still do not know its gender.. However it was a very bright red / orange with white spots and the under side of its head was white. I was so sad the tide was coming in and i had to leave him :'( wish i had seen this before i had met him then i would have not been as shy to touch his tenticals though i did stoke his head a lot very intelligent and cute ^_^
It’s just such a shame they are so short lived 🙁
Cephalopods have demonstrated that they have a huge capacity for communication on a level humans can only dream of...
They can convey emotions equally as complex as ours almost instantaneously to others without misinterpretation.
You're tellin us! They are so incredible!
How long do they live? ...I missed that part
A dorable I think they live 1-2 years for some species and up to 5 years for others, which isn't long. They usually lay eggs and then don't eat anymore while the female guards her eggs, and then she dies about the time they hatch from hunger or malnutrition I guess. The males die after they fertilize some eggs, but I'm not sure what happens if they don't find a mate cause they all seem to die very young. Can you imagine how much they would learn and how intelligent they would be if they could pass info from one generation to the next or live a long time? It boggles the mind. Perhaps we would no longer be at the top of the food chain lol.
Severn Belle You can tell how very intelligent Gilligan is and how inquisitive. It's obvious that this aquarium works hard to give her a good environment, but it tough to see such an intelligent creature in a relatively small tank. It's certainly necessary sometimes and the only way we can learn about them, but tough still. Have a great day everybody! By the way, I am happily watching the replay 🐙 😍😍
@Severn Belle Bullshit. You're taking out of your ass.
I'll never EVER eat octopus again!
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 Our canines say differently otherwise we would have only flat teeth like a rhino as I've been told
@@cephalonplant4087 What a stupid thing to say. If after the invention of crop cultivation, our canines mattered in our choice of foods, all men should wear dresses because they have nipples.
Why stop there!
@@Ava_Lang i hope that you are aware that if you choose to become vegetarian it is highly suggested to take vitamins like b12 and special products high in proteine in order to stay healty while not eating meat 100+ years ago this was not an option and a lack of meat would cause health issues so saying "they can grow plants why eat meat" is not logical either
@@failedtoloadpleasetryagain1862 Just for your info, you're trying to educate a vegan of over 20 years on vegan nutrition...
She sure is being a ham for you guys they are really smart I think she enjoyed being the center of attention
They're super smart! They've got short & long term memory and can remember individual people by taste (chemoreceptors in their suckers) and by sight!
Who needs muscles and bones when you have A HYDROSTATIC SKELETON 🤯 !??! So *THAT'S* how they can be so squishy and so strong! Thanks for sharing your play-date with us 🥰!!
Sure thing nation!!! Hydrostatic skeletons are epic! "elbows" in any place they want. lol
They still have muscles.
Release the kraken !

You looked like you and Gilligan had a great time. It was sweet how she was taking her food to her cave until you put your hand in the water and called her back 🤗 They are absolutely wonderful creatures! 💞
I was glad she came back!
You can see the texture of her skin changing throughout the video, almost like she's thinking.
Most definitely!
Last night I randomly watched a video on octopus and I can genuinely say I have never been more astounded by another being on this planet. The evolution of this beautiful creature is literally out of this world. The video, "The Insane Biology of: The Octopus" changed my perspective instantly and now being able to "pet," play, handle, or be in close graces of this animal are on my life's bucketlist for sure.
Every time I see an octopus video I've learned something that just makes them seem more awesome!
Yay! We'd love to have you join us at octopusmagic.com!
I have viewed this several times. I had to show my grandson. Then my husband. Yet again to my son. Plus I watch again and again just for the pleasure. So I am a repeater several times over. It is awesome.
Will record more encounters soon!
There was a girl who sat down to draw an octopus (I don't know if it was a giant pacific octopus or not). It came up to her after a few minutes and stayed put for a while, then started posing, showing a pose for a few minutes, then switching to a new one.
I just want to thank you for putting a smile on my face today. It's such a difficult time for many right now. You & Gilligan are a welcomed sight!
Toward the end she stopped playing and just seemed to enjoy the message. So relaxed.
Yes! I interacted with a GPO this last week who was so calm! I'll upload the video shortly.
Too much people time at the end we want to see new, calmer interactions with Gilligan! We are living vicariously through you :)
These animals are absolutely spectacular. She seems really happy here, even though I’m sure she knows that she is in captivity.
I know this is 3 yrs ago. However i wouldn't say she "knows shes in captivity" as thats a human construct. She knows shes in a small area and cant get out into the open water is more likely.
I think the foremost expert on how far the octopus can get out of the water without suffocating... is the octopus.
Change my mind.
Oh man I missed my calling. I love them. Wow your so lucky.
Go visit with one!
Yrs ago knew ProMartin at UW,Seattle. He was an early pioneer working with Octopus. They were so smart, learned to push gate to get to good. Came to say hello. I quit eating octopus in 1965. If you wanna work with them, write your local University, find who is working with them. Call see if you can volunteer-cleaning tanks, feeding, errands.
There's a wonderful animal lover /Naturalist in the Boston area who published a book about establishing a relationship with a female Octopus who once lived at the New England Aquarium. Apparently they don't live for a long time.
I've heard her in WGBH radio interviews, & she's quite interesting.
An Amazon review of her book:
The Soul of an Octopus: A Surprising Exploration into the Wonder of Consciousness Paperback - April 5, 2016
by Sy Montgomery (Author)
4.5 out of 5 stars 935 customer reviews
I'm reading this book right now, and it's amazing!!
Cheryl Anderson I’ve read that book too, and it changed my life and opinions on octopuses.
I would highly recommend Other Minds by Peter Godfrey Smith, he presents a summarization of the latest research on the evolutionary history of cephalopods and compares it human/mammalian intelligence. It is one of the most beautiful books I have ever read.
Off to abebooks! Thank You Very Much!!!
Shes a unique special animal, there's nothing like a beautiful Octopus Love her.Shes so smart...❤🍁🍂🍁
This octopus seems so friendly!😊😍
She really likes human interaction! That's so cool!! sometimes we think some species are so different thtat they won't care about us but they do!
Consider that interaction might be great fun for an intelligent animal.
Watching this guy getting out smarted by the octopus is hilarious.
cute
Octopuses are very intelligent Now isn't their whole body their brain I'm pretty sure I read somewhere where every cell in their body is part of their brain structure that's incredible if what I read was right
So I just looked it up again thank you for the heart I really appreciate that that's cool they have nine brains one in each arm and then a central nervous system brain and three hearts wow so two or more heads are better than one
It's too bad these magnificent creatures have such short lifespans. If they had the lifespan of the average human, they probably would have evolved to dominate the planet.
I do wish they lived longer!
Or be the best companions made, they be the reason humans would care more about the ocean and maybe create cooler water stuff like a portable Aquarium 🤔
Absolutely majestic creature
Subscribed because I've had a life long fascination with these incredible creatures. They're intelligent, have the ability to use logic, use things they find as tools and show interest and attraction to some people.
Gilligan is a beautiful octopus! She knows she's a star and is cared for!
feel free to join us at OctopusFanClub.com
This is so fun to watch! I'm so glad you got this opportunity and it's really interesting and entertaining to watch Gilligan interact with you 🐙💖🐙💖🐙💖
We miss gilligan so much! -- can't wait to see her again.
Thanks, guys! I was a bit fearful of octopi but after your video I have a whole new perspective and look forward to making friends with them.
They sure do intrigue me too. I think that they have different personalities, as all animals do, & are very intelligent. They can probably feel our emotional state.
Some have been known to attack divers & pull off their swim fins, shoes, tanks & breathing aparatus, so aren't all gentle.
They may just have been curious or thinking they were helping the divers, thinking the hoses & bubbles signified something attacking the humans, so trying to remove the stuff they saw as foreign to the divers, as an unknown creature attacking the diver. So if diving, don't assume they're just friendly & fascinating, though. While likely true, they could still pose some danger.
@@cherylanderson3340 Thanks for your reply, Cheryl. Yes, I imagine an intelligent creature is also likely to remember any 'not so friendly' humans they have encountered and behave accordingly. I searched other octopus stories after watching this one and was touched by their willingness to interact. One was grateful for being saved from dehydration on a beach, while another even enlisted the help of a friendly lady diver to help move an underwater obstacle so it (he/she) could search for food underneath. They are fascinating neighbors and I wish we treated them and all animals better. I really wish that! I am sure that these videos help to make that happen.
yay! looking forward to you meeting one!
"It's not easy to get these suckers of my hands." Girl tell me about it.
I am SO happy RUclips suggested this for me. My favorite animal is the octopus. After I started learning about all their different antics at aquariums a few years ago, I fell in love. So cute, so smart, and just so dang funny. I love this so much. Really wish I could have pet Gilligan too.
awesome!- we'd love to have you in OctopusFanClub.com !
"I'm here to help. Please don't eat the help."
This is awesome!! Please keep showing people, especially our young people, and our little people how important it is to appreciate and treat animals and that they are “beings” that can feel.
she’s so cute what a playful queen
Watching this with my husband and two sons. We’re all in awe
What a beautiful and fascinating creature! I would love to interact with a giant octopus.
She started angry and feel in danger and even did facial and eye emotions like fruncing eyes at the start but five aproximely minutes after the start of the vídeo went very friendly and peaceful. I liked how in aproximely 2.5 Minutes she intentionally tried to take a walk out of the Aquarium and get frenzied because you don't let her go out of it and how intelligently she expresser surrender with his arms throwing at the back of her. Octopus are incredibly smart and I don't think a ''Smarter terrestrial pet'' Will do the same with that perfection. Scientifics needs to know octopus are inteligent as a middle terrestrial animal, like lions, horses or zebras. I read on internet a guy has an octopus who asked for cleaning his aquarium after reading - The same or more than a middle-smart terrestrial (Or aquatic, I hope people will understand that even aquatic animals are more smarter than terrestrial, ironicly) animal.
How smart aquatic beasts are, I don't believe how programmed it will be an octopus brain for an aquatical animal without bones and with poison on it. Such a mess.
When I was diving off Gitmo back in 91` I had one "feeling " around my face mask and head and it was super cool and gentle then all at once it pulled my face into the coral dis lodging my air hose and cutting the shit out of my forehead, I peeled it off my face and scrambled back to the dive boat bleeding like hell and surrounded by dozens of Barracuda. I had sucker marks on my face for a couple of days. Had to explain the marks to my division officer, he thought I was coming down with some Cuban sickness. I`ll never forget it, hilarious.
Near Death by Octopus, they should have given me the purple heart.
I like the aquariust and learning from her, she seemed to love the giant octopus and caring for her. Gilligan was fascinating!
Awesome!! you can learn more at octopusfanclub.com
That sweet young lady has the calming voice of a kindergarten teacher.
It looks like her skin is really mallulable and soft or thin.
It's super soft but also very strong feeling
Dad: So, who’s your new girlfriend?
Son: Oh, let’s just say, she’s just a very “clingy”girl.
Dad: Ok....Invite her over for dinner!
Son: Ok, but when she arrives, don’t judge her because she’s different from me.
Dad: Of course not!
The next day:
Son: Ok, here she is!
Dad: .....you’re dating an octopus?
Son: Yea, so?
Dad: Do you have some weird fetish?
Son: She just claimed me without question.....
Dad: freaking weirdo....
Son: I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WOULDN’T JUDGE!!!
She is such a sweetheart. Thank you for sharing this. I knew they were extremely intelligent, but I didn’t know how personable and cute they are.
I love octopuses so much! One day I'd love to meet one of these!
It is life changing!!!!
I literally learn something new about octopuses every single time. They never get boring.
They are endlessly fascinating and SOOOOOO diverse! check out instagram.com/octonation for more
I never thought I would say this but Gilligan is so pretty!
Octopus' thought:
"helo, new human creature thingy!"
"u friendly? _swims up to hooman_ oh i see u with my hooman friend!"
"can i touch u? _touches_ wow u hoomans are really dry and hard!"
"not like me, me soft."
"hooman, i see food! me get food?"
"yay! me food!"
"ok hooman lets touch"
Classic Animations they’re smarter than that lol
what a great video. the octopuses are so amazing - playful, smart
and I just love them. thank you.
Hey Nation! Aren't they? -- thanks for checking out the video!
very pleasing..this is a correct way to see an octopus instead of some Asian cusines torturing them. Respect.
right
Agreed.
100% agree
Why do asian ppl hate animals so much? Always torturing n killing the most beautiful animals....all animals in fact
The main cause of warps in all of reality you have no idea what you’re talking about The largest group of dieticians in the world have done many meta analysies on this and conclude that appropriate vegan or vegetarian diets are nutritionally adequate for all stages of life including prgnancy, infancy, athletes, and adulthood. they also state that it has many disease preventing benefits. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/19562864/
Gilligan is loving and hungry.
She's smart and beautiful.
What an amazing octopus!
This was really cool to watch.
Glad you enjoyed it nation!!!
Now i feel octopus just really like a dog or a cat. They so smart, intelligent, n very playful! I think people have to stop consume them!! Totally delete from menu!
Then stop eating pig, cow, sheep and fowl as well.
@Boof Lord lol.. Ok 🐙
They are so intelligent,I love when they change color.. if you want to know if we have Aliens on earth just look at octopuses...Hi Gillian.🦑❤
haha-- right?!
Such remarkable animals. They possess an intelligence that is so alien, so divergent from our own, that it does truly feel as though we are gazing into the eyes of an extra-terrestrial. Thanks for sharing!
They aren't aliens. The Bible told us these things long ago...animals are thinking, feeling creatures made by God and humans were made to care for them and they are capable of understanding that. They will always treat us differently than they treat anything else because they recognize our dominion and that we are made in God's image.
I would love to interact with an octopus! They remind me of a cross between a toddler and a dog.
Living in Arizona, we take frequent trips to Puerto Peñasco in Sonora, MX. I love searching for octopus at night with low tide with my kids and interacting with them before letting them back to their rock. They never cease to amaze me with their docile nature and their fascinating ability to camouflage with their surroundings.
What is ASMR? Very cool video. I saw a video of a diver playing with a wild Octopus and I'll never eat Pulpo again :(
ASMR - (autonomous sensory meridian response) is a relaxing, often sedative sensation that begins on the scalp and moves down the body. Certain sounds trigger this.
@@octopusfanclub Thank you!
I couldn't stop smiling watching this.
