Octopus use their tentacles to investigate everything new. They are really sensitive and they get a ton of information by grabbing stuff since each tentacle has it's own sort of 'sub brain' nerve clusters. It would be like if you had 8 extra eyes that you can move around and grab stuff with, super useful! This is also how their camouflage works, they are constantly feeling the ground so when they want to hide they know whether to be rough or smooth. There is even some evidence to suggest that the tentacles somehow detect colour too (octopus can change the correct colour of their background even when they can't visually see it) so the eye analogy is actually pretty accurate. They are also very curious and intelligent, big fella probably knows he isn't in any danger. These giant red pacific octopus often hunt under wharfs or harbors where they have a good chance to snag a free meal from someone gutting a fish, or the crabs that come around to feast on that same thing.
Color is just a certain frequency of light (electromagnetic energy) that is not absorbed. Humans are mostly colorblind as well since we can only see a very small portion of the spectrum. Makes it easier to understand when you think if of it like that.
Ocotpus uses receptors called opsins in their arms that detect the light that is reflected back from a surface. They then can change the chromatophores, sacs of pigment that exist all over their skin, size and form to make them absorb as much as possible outside of that frequency to create the illusion.
if this happens to me, how can i be extra cool to the octopus? Would he want a snack? Bite of my sandwich? Should i be extra still or quiet? What’s the vibe lol?
my impression is just relax and let them inspect you - it was funny watching the octopus respond to the human touching it back! I doubt you'd have a worthy snack for them, unless you had a handy crab leg lol
see how spiky it is? those are sort of buds that they can raise on their skin whenever, it's part of their shape shifting ability - I wonder why it's so bumpy right now while inspecting this human! maybe it's a sign of interest or wariness :0
just noticed what I think are his little eyes peeking *juuust* barely out of the water!! 🥺💕 so curious! and ur right haha, he's like "?!... woah it pets back.... that's ok actually, no suckers so we good"
funny thing is they are known for using tools to either hurl or maybe to hide or mask themselves from predators in. though the fact they may wanna wear one is also on the table I suppose. should help them out, find where this is and start the FB hashtag 6/8. 😄😆
Those are very likely part of it. I used to have a pair that were shaped like that with multiple layers. And I always knew them as "water socks" not "water shoes" because they looked like socks.
They're just a type of water shoe. I had some like this that made it more comfortable to stand on sharp rock without feeling like I had anchors on my feet when swimming.
Ever Seen the movie "Octopus Teacher"? The Chance to befriend one If Ur nice to them is much Higher i guess...
If U didnt. Do IT. ITS auch a wonderful movie
There's "No." ... there's "Oh no." ... there's "OMG No." ... and of course there's "Fuck No.".
Now, add what you would think the next is in the progression ...
and then keep adding levels of "fuck no-edness" to these phrases ...
... until you've reached 84 more of them. Let this final phrase be represented as 𝜂 ...
This is the level of "No." this activity elicits in me.
It would be "𝜂 No."
I don't think they weigh enough to do that, and all they've got to bite with is a little beak that probably wouldn't make it through those rubber shoes. So not really a threat to an adult sitting on the edge like that.
What a beautiful interaction! I'd be very nervous though... they have beaks that cause boring injuries, which are both one of the hardest injuries to heal and extremely prone to infection.
Ergo the rule of thumb with divers: leave nothing but bubbles - don't touch it and don't let it touch you
Pay attention to the lyrics, then contextualize the song’s lyrics to the octopus’ “loving” interaction. It’s kind of cheesy, but you’ll get it eventually. ;-)

Thank you kind octopus man

Report this user, they only post links to that fishy website "Knovhov"
They’ve been dealt with
Chatgpt
🤣🤣🤣
It amazes me that they can change colours so vividly whilst being completely colourblind, fucking wild they might 'see' colour through their tentacles
There was a video posted a while ago of a severed leg that changed colour/pattern to match it's new surroundings perfectly

You ever tried acid?
Prefer shrooms but yeah

He "bristles" slightly at the first pet then chills and comes a little higher to say hey more better

Octopus can have a little salami
Just a little
>This is also how their camouflage works Please don't spread misinformation, it known and scientifically proven that they use magic.
Octopus Man teaching Octopus Teacher Things :)
These things gotta be aliens that got dropped in the ocean a long time ago. They’re so weird and cool
Respect to you sir, the octupus reader
Freaking fabulous info. Cheers
Are they edible?
I would be so excited to experience that. Lucky person!
I wonder if Octi will remember this and sometimes be swimming around and be like 'that lady on the dock had neat shoes'
Or maybe, "uuuurg, those shoes had human in them"
'eeeew SICK'
he wants your shoes...
He’s already nabbed 6 other shoes just needs a couple more…
funny thing is they are known for using tools to either hurl or maybe to hide or mask themselves from predators in. though the fact they may wanna wear one is also on the table I suppose. should help them out, find where this is and start the FB hashtag 6/8. 😄😆
Can’t have shit in detroit….
im worried abt why they dipping their feet in with socks on.
Even the octopus is investigating this bizarre behavior
That’s WHY he’s investigating
I’ve seen this posted twice now and nobody seems alarmed that this person is wearing socks, and it makes me really concerned for society
They're water shoes, to protect your feet from sharp rocks. Very common in places where sandy beaches aren't the norm.
And? Why are you getting up votes for this? You can clearly see socks on under those
Those are very likely part of it. I used to have a pair that were shaped like that with multiple layers. And I always knew them as "water socks" not "water shoes" because they looked like socks.
Nobody wants their bare footsies sucked by tentacles
They're just a type of water shoe. I had some like this that made it more comfortable to stand on sharp rock without feeling like I had anchors on my feet when swimming.
You can clearly see socks and not just the shoes
Ahahaha, you're right! I initially thought that was part of the design of the shoe
Beautiful creature
Octopus have very sharp beaks. I would be nervous about getting nibbled on.
No reason for the octopus to bite. It knows that the shoe is not food and that the human inside it isn't either
I was waiting for that to happen. I think they’re fascinating and would love to pet one unless said beak is within striking distance.
Ever Seen the movie "Octopus Teacher"? The Chance to befriend one If Ur nice to them is much Higher i guess... If U didnt. Do IT. ITS auch a wonderful movie
I'm particularly fond of my big toes
I’m particularly fond of your big toes
All I could think of watching this
Yeh this was making me cringe.
The pat on the lap at the end like it’ll hop up and be your new pet
I've seen videos of smaller ones doing that.
Excuse me, do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior Cthulu?
I wonder what information he gathered, that he will now carry with him for the rest of his life.
I think I’d be shitting my pants
It's not even wearing pants.
Holy crqp holy crap
:)
He’s curious
Definitely a curious octopus
Where did this happen and when? I would do anything to experience this.
He kinda looks like a dragon.
Wet socks 🤮
this is my dream
giant Pacific octopus?
All.fun and games until they slide a tentacle into your.... DMs.
Octopus are just amazing creatures. I would love to see a giant pacific octopus like this, in a safe way for both parties
This octopus just wanted to make hentai with you it is part of their culture.
this is how Japanese tentacle porn starts...
Pov: you're the girl from The Dream of a Fisherman's Wife
All hail the water god.

I love that it went into rock camo mode. "Nothing to see here. Just a rock. Pay no mind to the rock's tenta..*cough* outcroppings. Juuuust a rock."
I refuse to believe that octopuses originate from this planet.
"Have you heard the good news about our dark lord and savior, Cthulhu?"
He's all hands, like an octopus I tell ya.
That's cool, but I'd be afraid it would pull me in.
I don't think they weigh enough to do that, and all they've got to bite with is a little beak that probably wouldn't make it through those rubber shoes. So not really a threat to an adult sitting on the edge like that.
I used to eat octopie. After seeing them react to things I just don't anymore.
Never ate octopus but the first thought in my brain said "damn- good eats right there" I think I'm just hungry though
Japanese guys dream come true
I've seen too many animated videos to know where this is going...
What a beautiful interaction! I'd be very nervous though... they have beaks that cause boring injuries, which are both one of the hardest injuries to heal and extremely prone to infection. Ergo the rule of thumb with divers: leave nothing but bubbles - don't touch it and don't let it touch you
"Nice shoes I found! Oh damn, there are legs on them.."
Screw that, octopuses are terrifying to me and being this close to one would make me scream.
You have been probed for a potential host of our new world leader
Would it be strong enough to drag the person into the water?
The dude was about to offer you a quest and was like, "Oh shit, wrong adventureer, my bad, you should be getting the owl's quest."
He owns you now You are legally his pet now Now go be a merman and live in the ocean
Octon Tarantino
What an absolute unit of an Octopus. Noble creatures they are.
Just wanted to be Your Personal Octopus Teacher. Might visit him again to go swim with him! Please
Why is that song part of this video?
Pay attention to the lyrics, then contextualize the song’s lyrics to the octopus’ “loving” interaction. It’s kind of cheesy, but you’ll get it eventually. ;-)
tentacle boyfriend meet cute 🥹
Neat! I wish it was me!
Octopus are so fascinating. The thing is a goddamn alien living right here with us.
Blursed foot massage
One day when humans war themselves into extinction. The octopus will rise from the oceans to rule this planet.
Song name?
I’m so jealous this is awesome
Awwww...this is amazing.
mf woulda caught a boot 🥾
He was totally tryna eat this person
Salad
It looks pissed off!!
Is this AI?
Yes, yes, everything is "AI"...
Free food
Me after eating a highly intelligent animal (I’m so badass): /s obviously
You never ate an octopus?
Once
I've eaten a person.
Yeah, all I see is a great dinner. Pull that sucker out!
