Did you know that on male Octopi, one of 8 tentacles is a penis? It's hard to tell which one, so we may never know if the Diver shaked his hand, or jerked him off XD
The most interesting thing to me in this video was when the octopus was trying to really get close but the diver quickly reacted defensively and so did the octopus, like somehow it knew that the diver got scared so the octopus backed off.
^THIS^ I could be wrong, but I think that non-apex predatory animals are highly empathetic by nature. Being able to interpret the mindset of prey likely makes them more effective predators, while interpreting the mindset of their own potential predators could keep them off the menu. I also believe that people may be losing the ability to empathize because our developments in farming, language, etc. lessen our need for such interpretation, but I digress. My rant is over. Such an amazing creature.
That very well could be. But perhaps it’s also just reacting to the movements defensively. That’s a big octopus sure, but the diver is big too and perhaps it doesn’t want to get into a fight it couldn’t win. We will probably never know. That’s the real shame of it. It is cool that it took interest in him though. Skin contact like that is how they taste and smell. The hand is not part of the octopus’s diet so it didn’t want to eat him, but it prolly woulda enveloped him for a bit to try and find out more. Such a fantastically awesome creature.
1) "Food? No." 2) "Enemy? Maybe, let's be careful" 3) "Damn, weird thing is smart. He spotted my fabulous camouflage." 4) "Now thing want to touch me with his strange tentacles, oooo what a bizarre creature." 5) "Thing say hello. Thing seems friendly. Let's have a hug! So many dumb fish in this place, I'm glad to meet something as clever as I am!" 6) "No hug? Thing scared. Thing reject my hug. Oh. I understand. Let's not go too fast with this love, thing don't want to be eaten and me either. After all, the survival before games." In case you ask i speak octopus
This is by far the most intelligent species of any invertebrate, and we still are learning so much about them, but a few things I can tell you is that the largest Giant Pacific Octopus was nearly 200 lbs, pretty impressive for only a 3 year lifespan, also with eight arms totaling 270 suckers per arm their unbelievably strong, usually captive specimens in aquariums are much more friendly then their wild counterparts cause they interact with their handlers on a regular basis.
Indeed, the female has to not eat for several months to oxygenate and protect her eggs. As a result, by the end they die due to pure exhaustion of resources.
@Thomas Paine Their nervous system/mental processing is quite stunning. The primary main brain sends the info to the arms nerve mass, and then the arms act accordingly independent of each other. In a nutshell, an octopus has to visually see what it's arms are doing to process its movements/understand it's relative position to the rest of it's body
TheSchmeister to my understanding there's only one penis tentacle and imagine what would happen if their females did not die protecting their young for example if a female where to get pregnant and have it a clutch of eggs she would guard theme unmoving till she died imagine if the mother didn't die and was able to teach what she learnt to the babies then how smart would they get cause for octopuses the mail doesn't stay
@@bengt3902 almost every hand you've ever shaken that belonged to a male has had a pp on it. cut to the chase and shake their pp instead, like this diver

@Jason Woods yes and hawks are well known to eat snakes. I've seen a snake bite a hawk as it swooped down, killing him, and then eating him. Sure it's one in a million but that sort of stuff happens sometimes.
Octopodes are one of the most intelligent species on Earth, capable of abstract thought, and known for both their playfulness and their notorious skills as escape artists. The nicest thing about them, in my opinion, is that their intelligence is so clearly _alien_ to ours. Unlike cetaceans, higher primates, and corvids, which have comparable intelligence and think in ways at least recognizable to us, octopodes think in ways we can't even imagine, much less comprehend. They are so alien, in fact, that there is a legitimate hypothesis that they may have evolved from life which arrived from off-earth through panspermia.
The thing is though if you take Octopus dna and Human dna they are so similar that thinking they came from somewhere else would be silly. The only way they could’ve come from off-earth is if all complex life starts the same way as on Earth. Maybe there is only 1 way for complex life to start? If that’s the case then it wouldn’t matter if they are from here or somewhere else. We all look the same under a microscope.
I think it is a great way for us to practice communication with extraterrestrial life, should the chance arrive. Who isn’t to say that Octopus’ are our test sent by intelligent life to see if we are smart enough to communicate with them without too much issue. I’m not saying that is what’s going on, but to the Octopus, the water is their air, and the air is their space. Perhaps we could conduct a few more tests with them in our “environment” finding how we can make equipment for them to survive in our biome. We have so many things to learn from, and move forward, to get more information, but we, as a species can’t even communicate around the planet without having language barriers. I don’t know. I might be rambling, but I think learning to properly communicate with creatures such as these are filled with so much scientific potential, not only for learning about octopus, but also learning of different ways living things can think, learn, and, most importantly, how knowledge can be exchanged effectively between human, and non-human intelligent life, such as dolphins, octopus, and potentially, find some ways to streamline not only our language barrier problem, but for potential non Earth life. Think about it. If the diver wasn’t smart enough to show that octopus that there is something wrong, or we weren’t able to notice that the octopus was curious about the bubbles, this interaction could have been deadly, should the octopus snag or break something on the diver’s life support. If we had no idea what an octopus was, but we knew it was intelligent, and it killed a diver, that wouldn’t bode well to the public. When in reality, the octopus was curious and had no intention of creating such a negative impact on the human race. For all we know, that could be the first time an octopus saw a human. Most wildlife don’t want anything to do with humans, other than if it involves their own survival. We need to break out of this world we have, we need to expand our horizons. Let’s get to understand intelligent life on our own planet first before venturing out into the stars, shall we? We could learn a thing or two from these “animals.” (Heads up, Humans are animals too, don’t associate that word with less intelligence.) And this time, shall we make sure we don’t make a negative connotation towards something that doesn’t look exactly like us?

I love the way they reacted to each other. Both were very sensitive like they were on the same level. ( Don't get me wrong I just mean there were Both full of respect for each other and were interested in touching the "thing" they faced to get to know it . ) sorry for my terrible grammar. I am from Germany:)

I have to morph now and then to get some kinetic emotions out of my system.
Octopus and Humans share mostly the same type of sensitive perception. We both feel things from our "hands". If you have cats for instance, when you present your hand to them you'll notice they'll rub them with their sensitive hair of their head. It's how animal say "hello!" : By contacting the part that are the most sensitive.
I'd be so terrified. Those things are super strong and super fast, not to mention insanely smart. They could kill quite effectively without so much as a thought, but this one just wanted a handshake. Cute.
A kinda dangerous thing to do, as the main well known danger of diving near octopuses is that they tend to rip your face mask right off, and then obviously its not easy to wrestle the thing for it back.
These interactions are endlessly fascinating. The long reach out to touch the divers mask, eyes moving watching the bubbles clearly thinking *something* Protect these guys at all cost
Giant Pacific octopus has to be one of my favorite sea creatures you don't get a sense of how big or strong they are until you've actually been with them
I love when people get all anthropomorphic--the octopus was probably testing him out to see if he was edible. But, yeah, call it being 'friendly' if you want. 🤣
Octopus: Dude i'm not your prom date, quit holding my hand. Diver: but your so suction cuppy and squishy, Octopus:I'm out of here, your starting to creep me out.
The way the guy reached out to the octopus and it reached back gently and politely. That is like what you'd expect from another human if you had no language in common and strangely different appearance. Intelligence recognises intelligence. This wasn't a man and an animal, this was a man and another person. A cephalopod person, but a person nonetheless.
The interesting thing about octopuses is that their intelligence rivals that of human children, but they are incapable of teaching their young because the fathers abandon the family and the mothers starve themselves waiting for the eggs to hatch. So every new generation has to teach itself everything from scratch. Imagine how quickly they could advance if we could bridge that generational gap.
I just realized that *ALL* of my favorite animals are all highly intelligent. _Octopi_ _Beluga whales_ _Elephants_ _The smart breeds of dogs(Broder collies, German shepherds & Hungarian mudis)_ _Indian Ring Parakeets_ _Foxes_
@@jonhy8351 Perhaps not but we do unspeakable things to animals nonetheless. Worth reflecting on how things which appear normal become accepted - it will help clarify how some people in a foreign land find it acceptable to eat an octupus alive.
Id be so happy and honoured to be meeting her but terrifying at the same time. They're so damn strong if it wanted you broken it could, their smart too so it would notice weak points to quickly with every arm..... Want one
What I think I'd going on with most of animals out there that they're evolving, they can tell a friendly human from a hunter, but of course doesn't apply to all animals, animals of pray are born to kill instantly: such as lions, tigers, etc.
That's the most beautiful encounter you can have with a marine creature after dolphins. It's nice because sometimes they interact with you using the tentacles, and they tease you. Love them octopuses.
I saw your Dodo feature of this experience and loved your explanation. "Was like meeting an alien" So beautiful. I just subscribed and look forward to seeing and hearing more from you. Thanks for sharing!
I love how, as soon as he realizes that you have put your glove back on and he can't feel and taste your skin anymore, he curls up his tentacles and backs off, too. They are intelligent in a way we still can't grasp. If it wasn't for their limited life span this would be an interesting co-existence...

Octopus and Humans share mostly the same type of sensitive perception. We both feel things from our "hands".
If you have cats for instance, when you present your hand to them you'll notice they'll rub them with their sensitive hair of their head. It's how animal say "hello!" : By contacting the part that are the most sensitive.
I love how the octopus stopped once he touched your face. Just a curious fella! So cute how it kept giving handshakes.
"i swear, he was touching me on weird places"
*"show us on the doll Jamie"*
It was so interested in your bare hand because it has taste buds in his suckers and probably determined that you were tasty.
The octopus was like: Take my tentacle, you my pale monochromatic friend and follow me, I'll show you the secrets of the ocean.
I'd be so terrified. Those things are super strong and super fast, not to mention insanely smart.
They could kill quite effectively without so much as a thought, but this one just wanted a handshake.
Cute.
Diver: "Back off!"
Octopus: "Bro I was just trying to untangle your O2 cable."
I’m watching this at 2 am and for some reason this made me start crying real tears
you are sensitive...
it's okay sweetheart
A kinda dangerous thing to do, as the main well known danger of diving near octopuses is that they tend to rip your face mask right off, and then obviously its not easy to wrestle the thing for it back.
These interactions are endlessly fascinating.
The long reach out to touch the divers mask, eyes moving watching the bubbles clearly thinking *something*
Protect these guys at all cost
Giant Pacific octopus has to be one of my favorite sea creatures you don't get a sense of how big or strong they are until you've actually been with them
*Everyone gangsta unless that thing hugs your face*
Me: (sees an octopus). Ahh one of many intelligent creatures of the marine world.
(Sees a squid). I'm eating calamari tonight boys.
Earth has the most interesting aliens
I love when people get all anthropomorphic--the octopus was probably testing him out to see if he was edible. But, yeah, call it being 'friendly' if you want. 🤣
This is definitely another theory which might be true
Octopus: "You're a strange one, where are the rest of your arms?"
"I m... shy...."
After 2 min
2:18 "You are mine!!!"
We were once again United by the algorithm I see.
At first it was shy... But then it became so curious. Really awesome footage.
2 smart bois holding hands
The diver didn't know that the first tentacle wasn't really a tentacle *giggles*
3:10 THIS IS SO CUTE HE’S PUTTING HIS TENTACLE ON YOUR FOREHEAD AS IN A LAST GOODBYE AND IT SEEMED SO AFFECTIONATE
he was actually probably just curious about his diving mask, as he was also inspecting the hoses and putting it's arm where the air comes out
Octopus: Dude i'm not your prom date, quit holding my hand.
Diver: but your so suction cuppy and squishy,
Octopus:I'm out of here, your starting to creep me out.
You can tell they are smart creatures.
I can’t even express how much I love Giant Pacific Octopuses!! There just such astonishing cephalopods.
Continuation of video to be found on Redtube?
Han Ng try hentai haven 😂
The way the guy reached out to the octopus and it reached back gently and politely. That is like what you'd expect from another human if you had no language in common and strangely different appearance.
Intelligence recognises intelligence. This wasn't a man and an animal, this was a man and another person. A cephalopod person, but a person nonetheless.
The interesting thing about octopuses is that their intelligence rivals that of human children, but they are incapable of teaching their young because the fathers abandon the family and the mothers starve themselves waiting for the eggs to hatch. So every new generation has to teach itself everything from scratch. Imagine how quickly they could advance if we could bridge that generational gap.
Marcel la Rastaban I would help fund that research for sure
@Catamulch Cake You should see a doctor.
I find this to be so interesting! It's like the octopus is studying the diver and is giving him the same trust that the diver is giving him!
I envy you. I always wanted to meet an Octopus D:
Squidwards met a strange fish today
It’s crazy how smart these things are tho
Damn, so _that's_ what a LV 100 octopus looks like. Straight up raid boss-tier animal.
but when aliens gonna arrive are they gonna touching us and play with us that would be funny lol
They are like a living fractal entity, so trippy and soothing to see them process information
Octopus so smart 🐙👍
meowmeow meow *octopi
“What do you want, strange four-limbed creature?! Oh.....you’re friendly? Ok :3 “
*"C L I M B"*
I just realized that *ALL* of my favorite animals are all highly intelligent.
_Octopi_
_Beluga whales_
_Elephants_
_The smart breeds of dogs(Broder collies, German shepherds & Hungarian mudis)_ _Indian Ring Parakeets_
_Foxes_
Octopuses
+Wat ar Yoo DOIN I My SWAMP! Human is one of my favorite animals not most favorite and also orcas are smart my favorite
Wat ar Yoo DOIN in My SWAMP! Your standards are too high...
Octopuses *
Be careful what you wish for:
Diver “a handshake?”
Octopus “nah dude...HUGGS”
Diver “AARGHHHH😱”
This is how hentai begins
Yeah fuck u bitch
Nigga what??😂
HNTR KLLR I already thought about it before the video started
Bruh this a cute innocent moment why you gotta sexualize the damn octopus
Red Moon 96 come on bro, you know that octopus was thinking some naughty thoughts. XD
lets be honest, 6 year passes this octopus already became cuisine
He’s trying to eat the camera lol 😂
I love how both of them are curious to touch each other.. Both the human and the octopus. Cute.
Asians be like “friendly intelligent animal let’s eat “
Yeah, asians are the only people who eat octopodes. Europeans totally don't do that
Puckosar lmao no. It’s just Asians that eat them live.
Friendly intelligent animals like pigs, cows, ducks, chickens, turkeys, squids ...
But we don't eat them Raw
@@jonhy8351 Perhaps not but we do unspeakable things to animals nonetheless. Worth reflecting on how things which appear normal become accepted - it will help clarify how some people in a foreign land find it acceptable to eat an octupus alive.
Id be so happy and honoured to be meeting her but terrifying at the same time. They're so damn strong if it wanted you broken it could, their smart too so it would notice weak points to quickly with every arm..... Want one
Texture wise, hes not being friendly. Just showing you warnings.
daisx beohfox How
Giant Pacific octopuses also turn red and bumpy when they feel curious. If it was trying to scare the diver off, it would make itself huge and puffy.
@@BizzarreProductions Don't they flash, too, if they were being aggressive? This guy didn't seem to flash at all to me
This is the cutest youtube recommendation I saw this week.
What I think I'd going on with most of animals out there that they're evolving, they can tell a friendly human from a hunter, but of course doesn't apply to all animals, animals of pray are born to kill instantly: such as lions, tigers, etc.
octopuse can surprisingly read body language pretty well. it could probably tell that this guy wasn't meaning to end its life
That's the most beautiful encounter you can have with a marine creature after dolphins. It's nice because sometimes they interact with you using the tentacles, and they tease you. Love them octopuses.
I am now warm and fuzzy inside.
I saw your Dodo feature of this experience and loved your explanation. "Was like meeting an alien" So beautiful. I just subscribed and look forward to seeing and hearing more from you. Thanks for sharing!
I've heard they'll try to take off your mask & regulator!
Octopus: *I JUST WANNA SHAKE HIS HAND!!!*
I love how, as soon as he realizes that you have put your glove back on and he can't feel and taste your skin anymore, he curls up his tentacles and backs off, too. They are intelligent in a way we still can't grasp. If it wasn't for their limited life span this would be an interesting co-existence...
The octopus is like ‘what the hell are you?’
If Octopi lived longer they would conquer the Earth
One word.
Tryphobia.
You know that thing isn't actually real right? No real psychologist acknowledges trypophobia as a real phobia.
Octopus: Oh great it's the water apes again
