  • Why would you want to eat a beautiful creature while it's still alive? Imagine a human, like you, getting eaten while you're still breathing. Fuck that, I wouldn't eat them, I would probably take them home so crewl people like them dont kill an innocent creature like that one.

  • I could probably eat one of them but I will probably choke considering that I'm 12 and my mom won't let me! And does anyone know how if your parents say don't do anything you wanna do it?

  • "The problem is swallowing it because it's so slimy. And it sticks to your tongue. So it's hard to swallow when it's sticking to your tongue."

    Get a girl who "swallows" to eat it, that shit will be easy lmao. I'm so sorry I had to.

  • 4:00 rape face

  • Cruelty. 

  • Silly humans. Humans are the only animals that kill there prey before eating them. So how are we horrible?

  • fake and gay.

    

  • @iLLgetYourAse You're saying that because you can't do it. I'm Korean. I eat it once in awhile. It's good stuff..maybe you should try it and convince youself it's not fake and realize that food doesn't have gender. Don't call it gay. Call it creative.

  • hmm... I wouldn't want to eat it, not even if it were dead, cooked boiled, shizzled, buzzed, or any way of preparing an octopus... I would want it alive and kicking inside an aquarium so I could take care of it and look at it every day !

  • Horrible People of asia ,........!!

  • Theguy: thats kinda big..

    me: yea and ur gonna choke on it..

    Theguy: * eat octopus * chewing is not the problem the problem is swallowing it cuz its slimmy..

    Me: oh no i'm not going to try that bru..0u0

  • How can you all eat like that ..I'm half korean but i don't eat ALIVE octopus O^O

  • Asians just dont seem to care about living things.....

  • @mwillis1000 true

  • Yuck that's sick

  • Thats cruel!!!

  • looks like a facehugger from aliens

  • When eating an octopus, you have to dip it in oil, so the tentical wont stick to the inside of your mouth. Most important, is to chew it really fast.

  • lol kendo is japanese not korean

  • I don't mean to be a party pooper, but octopuses are intelligent. Now eating them is fine, but then people cry about eating dolphins. Hypocrites. Anywho, ewwww live octopus. Could not do.

  • Close Enough

  • Challenge Accepted

  • Thats fkd up.

  • They give him the biggest one.

  • when its rapped up on the chopsticks it actually looks pretty good... I will definately have to try this one day

  • I've had octopus before, no problem... But just, ugh!

  • this is nothing i eat live whale! in one bite!

  • Deep fried/boiled octopus is really good though.

  • What a p..sy

  • looks good

  • This is fucking gross. I'm Korean and I wold never EVER eat a live octopus.

  • @HemiUnaka Probably not. Its suction cups might hold onto your esophagus and cause you to choke. Plus, I bet the feeling of the animal squirming in your stomach wouldn't be pleasant.

  • NO EXCUSE for eating an animal live without killing it first. Your not brave etc if you cause pain and enjoy it... ITS ALSO NOT HUMANE IF IT SUFFERS.

  • @MEATEATERS

    If their already dead then why is the debate over whether these LIVING BREATHING OCTOPI FEEL PAIN OR NOT AS THEY ARE BEING EATEN ALIVE!

    Atleast have a proper education on the subject before putting in. We have enough ignorance and stupidity blinding our world as it is.

    Oh, and on another note, screw you.

  • Kavaliers (1988) noted that Wells (1978) claimed that there were “pain pathways” in Octopus vulgaris.Octopuses always challenge us, because there is no other organism on the planet that so obviously seems to have some kind of intelligence, but housed in an animal that might as well have come from another planet.

    In conjunction, to have the ability to feel fear, anxiety, and or stress is equal to being able to feel pain. Just because something is alive does not mean its food.

  • @FearNothingLoveAll

    NO ONE GIVES A FUCK! THEY'RE ALREADY DEAD!

  • Octopuses and other cephalopods have sophisticated nervous systems. “Feel pain as acutely as mammals do.” We have crude methods of comparing nociceptive behaviour in very similar kinds of mammals. And even those crude measures give us very good reason to think that not all mammals experience pain to the same degree. (Octopuses) have stunning learning abilities, but about whom little is known regarding nociception, endogenous opiates, and responses to analgesics.

  • Who is the real animal?

  • @25hiroshimishima exactly.. mankind is the most dominant animal there is! they take advantage of every sort or living thing and destroy it. the oceans are being indulged in so many pathedic ways. every resource is being used to the full. nothing on earth is untouched anymore. because greed is in the hearts of men.

  • How can you eat a living being? That's cruel.

  • Is it safe to just swallow it without chewing?

  • Ugh, imagine the feeling of it moving around in your stomach, gripping it from the inside with it's 1000 suckers.

  • so nasty

  • Thats just Cruel

  • Mmm I want some!!

  • You only live once.  What's wrong with trying something new in your sad boring life

  • just saying. this was filmed so long ago. koreans dont dress like that now...

  • NOOO OMG

  • omg i want one so badly

  • Wouldn't the slime make it easier to swollow? :P

  • @AirwayDriving Shutup Chink

  • sexy

  • ewwwwwwwwww

    

  • Fuckin Asians eat anything no wonder they have so much disease in their countries. Filthy fuckers.

  • @swizzbeats1212 You are a racist prick who needs to get the fuck off the internet

  • @iwanttodanceallnight LOOL I'm guessing you eat this kind of shit too?

  • @swizzbeats1212 No, I am a vegan, but I am accepting of people and don't judge them on appearance or stereotypes or my own ignorance to their societal norms.

  • @iwanttodanceallnight Relax fatass I was just trolling...fuck you're fat.

  • @swizzbeats1212 What does me potentially being over weight have anything to do with what was said? And I don't care whether you were trolling or not what you wrote was incredibly rude.

  • @iwanttodanceallnight Umadbro?

  • If it was KFC he would eat a peice that big

  • natural Steroids

  • @specops1991 U RACIST FUCK im asian but i think this tste like dipshit

  • EWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAA 

  • Like a dinosaurs a long time ago liked eat silly humans. :D

  • 0:40 TENTACLE PORN

  • You need to redefine bravery idiot. 

  • Comment removed

  • People are idiot saying this is "Animal cruelty" octopus are invertebrates they cannot feel pain, get that round you dumbass heads.

  • @Gritzaable Of course they can feel pain. Why wouldn't they be able to?

  • @ProductionsByEvan obviously you are most likely under 13 and haven't yet learned enough to understand that octopus doesn't have a nervous system unlike animals with spine such as snakes ect, jellyfish are another example of what can't feel pain.

  • These Asians are REAL men. They eat LIVE FUCKING OCTOPUS.

    C'mon America, grow a spine!

  • ARGH its head looks so squishy i just wanna squeeze it! with gloves lol

  • KOREANS/CHINESE/JAPANESE EAT EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING....UNFORTUNATELY THIS ACTUALLY ISN'T THE WORSE OF WHAT THEY DO TO LIVING CREATURES.

  • I do love some slimey things in my mouth.....no homo

  • oh my

  • Only because it' not typical for us Europeans to eat something alive it doesn't mean that it is bad, dumb or disgusting. It says : So many countries, so many customs.

  • @moika2020 good point . The design of consumption is very out of accordance with natures design by the human animal . At least what I've seen in the processing of our food . Good to celebrate the earth bounty without consuming as a parasite or violence . It may also question the current methods we affect creation with . (Earth ,flora, fauna )

  • nigga!!!

  • one Question to Those that eat live octopus: Do you think you're fish??

  • These people are fucking disgusting lmao :|

  • we eat cows that are killed in MUCH worse conditions than this.... why is it wrong for them to eat their octopus?

  • I relaized whay they do that .... Octopus tried to finish all fish in ocean by eating them so people became angry and began it to eat octopus.

  • Another fantastically cruel and unnecessary, dumb fucktard Asian idea. These people really are the global retards.

  • TROLOLOL A WAY TO IMPROVE STRENGTH? Umm. no. Plus, it's usually not eaten whole, but only the legs...

  • Its moving at your stomach!!

  • Eeewww this looks gross alive..

    But if it taste like sushi i'd like to try it someday :)

  • Many jokes can be made.

  • Wtf

  • What does it taste like?

  • In soviet russia Octupus eat you!

  • Kim Jong-il is dead, you don't have to do this anymore

  • @shallowships ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID. Kim Jong-il was from North Korea. This vid is definitely filmed in South Korea.

  • @fayeriemagick No, I'm not fucking stupid but you must be. Obviously this isn't North Korea and obviously you don't understand sarcasm. Try to not take the internet so literally/seriously and you will have more success with it.

  • @shallowships they do this in south korea as well...ignorant....

  • @asianjae15 Obviously. Especially considering that this video is filmed in South Korea. It was a joke; you know, sarcasm? When did people on the internet start taking things so literally... ignorant.... .............. .... .. .. . .. . ...... . . ....... .. ..... . dot.

  • @shallowships well i didn't take it as sarcasm...i took it offensively

  • Comment removed

  • i like octopus but only if it is cooked. +a mixture of hot sauce, lime, and soy sauce with friend squid and octopus is so fucking awesome.

  • OUT of HUminty.

  • its fuckin tight on the octopus and fuckin disgustin thing to eat anyway !!!!

  • They're like " why you waste octopus brack man"

  • Its okay to eat animals, but why hurt them by eating them alive?! For some stupid tradition or something? Wtf!!

  • that's hardcore hahaha

  • i farted while watching this video

  • Would You Eat Live Octopus? No.

  • You drink alcohol after you put it in your mouth, so it fucks up their nervous system and they don't stick inside your mouth. You can cut it if you want to as well, it won't die for some time...

  • Everything ends up as food for something else.

    Imposing morality comes from people that think they are better than you.

  • YOU ARE ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO VICTIMISE ANIMALS AS "FUN"! YOU ARE PSYCHOPATHIC SCUM!

  • What a bunch of stupid bastards! Why be so needlessly cruel, and why encourage such needless cruelty? It's not funny, it's horrible!

  • @millichocs Yes, it's much better if a large fish comes up, hunts it down, rips it up and eats it. /eyeroll/

  • @aToxicLemon So your standard for human morality is 'if fish do it, then it's ok'. No doubt you have seen videos of animals attacking and killing people. With your logic, if animals do it, then humans can do it. It's natural. right?

  • gross... that makes this video good.

  • it really makes no difference if it's alive when you eat it or dead when you eat it. it only takes one chomp from your teeth to kill it in your mouth on the way down.

  • @xtremixt1 There are racist people from every different races, of course there are racist Asian people, White people, and now you too, racist Black people. So congratulation, you just called yourself a racist douchebag

  • @xtremixt1 First of all, how do you know that I am not black. Secondly, people who constantly talking about the size of the dick are only doing so because they been made fun of before. Or because they got nothing else to show off except their dick. If you care about the size of your dick so much why don't you go compare you size to a horse. Is a horse superior to you because its has larger dick?

  • @xtremixt1 I am asking about the part that you are being a racist just like him not you personally. I don't care about whether you are black or whether you are handsome or not and how do you know that he is a unemployed terrorist. Is it because he might be a Arab? How would you feel if someone call you a lazy and uneducated drug dealer just because you are black.

  • Processed animals will starve to death, stress to death, freeze to death, bleed to death, fried alive, boiled alive.... ho, very humane. Calling that cruel because your foods were killed where you don't see it. Now that's ignorance.

  • Soooooooo.... it's completely fine when another fish eat an octopus, and it's animal cruelty when people do? Very interesting perspective.

  • @TMBaneBlade Other fish don't have the brains that humans do, we know the difference between being cruel and kind and also they don't have alternative eating habits like we do.

  • @varunnagwekar Which part is cruel? the fact that we eat them alive instead of suffocating them to death or fry them alive or frozen to death on ice? don't be silly.

  • @TMBaneBlade sigh, you actually make a good point. Almost all methods of killing them is actually cruel. I am a meat eater myself and hope to stop eating meat myself but the temptation is simply too much. Dammit!

  • @varunnagwekar Furthermore, dolphins are also fish. It's only cruel on your perspective. Also, eating alive is a from a concept that alive one would be most fresh. By the way, do you eat live oysters? (curious look)

  • @TMBaneBlade I dont eat anything that is still alive! The only thing I stopped eating was crabs, and that's becuase I saw my dad once killing it before cooking it. He broke off each one of it's legs (or are they hands?) one by one and then boil them. Donno if they were still alive at that point though. But that was my last crab meal. Now I think you will agree that this method is MORE cruel than other methods of killing animals. We are actually making them suffer for prolonged duration this way.

  • Comment removed

  • @varunnagwekar Yes, all methods of killing are painful, but cruel? That's just sympathy I guess. There is no way to distinguish the degree of guilt when it comes to this. For example, the crab you mentioned usually gets boiled alive because meat is most tender when it's most fresh. Might call us selfish for giving them more pain for our need. But we've done this till now from the stone age. Want the change? Be the martyr but I'm not in.

  • @TMBaneBlade Sooooo.... some animals mate in public, so I guess it's all good when people do that as well? Very interesting perspective.

  • @TMBaneBlade <3 I see where you're coming from but our instints are altered by motive judgement and this is done as an ego consideration and not out of need , possibly . The fantastic' has superstition also may coincide with the killing and poaching of mammals like the tiger on another portion of the pole . Most animals are merciful by instinct .Human animal is the only animal to separate from instinct , marring the natural design . Pain is inflicted by the person , possibly ?

  • @TMBaneBlade That's why you were created with a brain that functions using logic... A fish doesn't think before it eats, you do.

  • sigh...not all koreans do this

  • @xtremixt1 how are you different than him?

  • @xtremixt1 Are you fucking retarded, first you want to exterminate Asians and now you saying that they contribute to the society. Make up your mind already, don't try to act like a nice guy.

  • @xtremixt1 didn't your midget cock got bitten off by a guy? Or was that your dildo?

  • have you guys ever tried sticking a life octopus on your erect penis? a whole new level of pleasure.

  • I would eat octo pussy.

  • Really?! why did they put in this SUPER slimy sounding sound effect? was it really necessary? so.. if the texture is not to your liking, you're going to diss it? childish.

  • quite possibly the most horrendous thing I could ever imagine to eat! 'in the case of me starving and it was a matter of life or death, i'd munch hard'

  • i wwant a pet octopus they seem like total bros

  • It seems like shit, but actually its also very healthy, Bear Grylls ate it. So that explains it

  • @DutchMrLouis so you're saying i should drink my own piss too?

  • @KelcieIsEvil

    Haha, I laughed very hard at your comment, you should not drink your own piss it's not healthy, if you are in cold environments you can do it so your body temperature will get warmer and have more chances to survive. If you like to drink your piss go ahead and do it, you have the rights XD I'm not saying you should.

  • @DutchMrLouis Trololol. i know, i just couldnt avoid making a joke about that

  • damn people these days don't know how to tolerate, respect and appreciate other cultures. I personally find eating McDonalds everyday worse than this yet I don't go around online posting that it's disgusting.

  • Wrong translation, I am korean, ...

    the translator says 'I choked on it' But what the korean guy said was 'It's not that easy to swallow sometimes'. guys it's just like sushi ... much delicious and healthier than Mcdonalds or KFC....

  • it's not deadly meal!!!! friendly and sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeet!!! you guys should try this such as Anglan!!

  • 1) watch video

    2) pause after 0:44

    3) YELL EWWW EWWW EWWW!!!!

    4) Fap fap fap fap...

  • This is weird.... I actually want to try it....

  • why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why... why

  • Why call Koreans nasty when you people eat foie gras and don't think that is inhumane?

  • are you f*cking kidding me? Alive? Damn these koreans are nasty people!!!

  • its culture!! lol i mean do you eat hamburger? In some countries, you would be dead if you eat cow lol

  • To people who think this is cruel, are you all vegetarians? How is this ANY DIFF from eating meat?

  • GROSSSSSSSSS!

  • That filthy white girl at 0.19 seconds is just a white trash with no culture so she only eats octopus to look cool and shock mommy!

  • nice~~wanna try it :)

  • this shits so gd

  • Forget the racism rubbish. This is revolting and cruel, and still people have more to say about Jewish kashrut laws which are designed to not bring pain to the animal. This just as bad as boiling an animal alive!

  • Not sure about the cruel comments....is it any different than the slaughterhouses or the deplorable conditions that we raise livestock in? Is it any different then boiling a crab or a lobster alive?

  • i guess i would like to try eating a live octopus someday.. haha..

    somehow does it have any aphrodisiac effect?

  • this is very miss informing... Koreans eat it because it is one of delicacies.. it is not because of they believe it will give imaginary strength to u...and most places they chop it at least..and korea is not the only place who eats octopus.

  • @4:00 that guy's face expression hahahaha

  • Comment removed

  • 4. Asian people been through way more disaster than Europeans (not trying to hate, but some cause by Europeans) When you are dying of hunger, you will eat anything. And the traditions was passed down.

    5. Are you going to hate all the many different Asian races just because some of them eat dogs? Because that is a lot of people to hate.

    6. Thank you for not swearing anymore and sounding more polite.

  • I could've sworn I saw this same thing years ago, wonder why they would upload it now.

  • Comment removed

  • It's not worth eating it, poor octopus, how would they like it.

  • Well, this is how most animals die in the wild. Eaten alive, so don't make such a big deal out of it.

  • I hate how the only animals that people care for when it comes to animal abuse is cute animals like puppets, kittens and so on. I mean these animals are living individuals too. Yet it's okay for them to get eaten and dipped and nobody cares. I mean come on! This is horrible!

  • Tastes like chicken! You know how he do~

  • At the end the tenticle

  • Food is Food!
