[TillX]

RORSCHACH OCTOPUSSSSSSS !!!!!1!!!111!!!!

and what kind of camera you have that does that ??????

also i'm wondering if those cells could be encapsulated and preserved, it would make a very interesting tattoo :P

[sega31098]

Is it actually alive?

[ClothoidDoll]

I think that's really cool to see it do that. Did you also make an ink sauce? My fiancee says it's really good. When I fry up baby octopi, I get a lil bit of ink in the pan and it's a pain to clean, but it's tastey

[herafan5]

Is that ink running through the ocoptus? Is that the same ink they squirt out? So they also use it to change their colour?

[KaoshimaCheshire]

@herafan5 No, Octopi have what are called Chromatophores in their skin, they're pigmented cells that expand and contract.

[GabrielDoran]

@herafan5 No they actually don't. They have special skin cells that change color, not the ink. The ink can only get into the rest of the body if the ink sac was broken or cut.

[unclebenz59]

i found the source of the ticking! it's a pipe bomb!

[yakyak515]

eww you touched it 0.o ..

[joeyambor69]

That is a bit disturbing and ecO-Disrespectful...!

[rawdawg0508]

sice he ate it he'll start changeing colors

[hesellsmystuff]

What the Fuck is that goddamn clicking noise ?

[wanbfriends]

Eat it to gain it's powers! LoL.

[pwersaver18]

Typo: They're

[pwersaver18]

Seriously guys, stop getting so angry at this...

Imagine how you got that chicken burger? No offense to you people, but some people DO have to fish for food... Buying frozen fish is the same thing.

Also that's quite interesting... I didn't actually know those octopus kept changing their colour when their passed

[grignyak]

man this is too funny... all the crap you get from un-informed opinionated individuals...lol I am a member of P.E.T.A. Greenpeace, and the A.S.P.C.A. actually.

if you had a shrimp in your video,. or a lobster,.. no one would say anything,..but it's an octupus so that makes it more important than the shrimp,... I love these people. cool video man,. I didn't know they did that,.. that must mean they have involuntary electrochemical camo.. cool hope it was a good meal

[MrRubiez]

um why the fuck do you have an octopus in your house?

[mmmbad]

Poor creature!

[Alpinex105]

Oh shut up.

[topphemelig]

lol, what if humans had the ability to change colors? *We have found a dead man, he is 27 and bla.. uhm... whit... uhm... bla.... uhm... GHAAA!!!*

[mushufreak]

HAH!

[localibran]

LMAO!

[anhdillion]

Beautiful creatures with amazing transformation.

[diegopunk]

NO need for insults. (grow some pubes)^_^

iit actually rots in ur intestines so u are right not in ur stomach but its a fact meat takes longer to process in ur stomach than vegetables at any given point u have mass of meat in ur intestines which is why worms are so easy to wind up in intestines of meat eatin animals we primates are made to chill round eat vegetables fruit and fungi not kill pillage and rape our momma earth :)

[diegopunk]

it might be called dinner but you could eat much much MUCH many other sort of foods that are tastier and healthier

vegetables fruits and such take about couple hours max to process in ur stomach

whilemeat can take days even weeks just rotting away inside you

meateater has a high amount of rotting meat in their intestines thruout their whole life

humans were not MADE for meat but if u notice our canine teeth those 2 spiked teeth daz because we moved to the easiest form of substanance=murder

[tgoldman14]

meat doesnt ROT in our stomachs you idiot. We digest it, and our body absorbs the proteins...god damn, som people are just soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo stupid!

[GMenSB42]

ahha right meat just rots inside of u....it's called shit dude excess food comes out

[theoriginalcoolkid]

It does actually decompose and release harmful toxins WHILE your (hardly capable) bodies try to digest it. Humans far less adept to eating meat than any other carnivore out there.

[afhdfh]

Humans aren't carnivors, they're omnivors. We're made for eating everything just like bears and boars.

[theoriginalcoolkid]

Not really, dude. The only part of us even remotely made for eating meat are our two dull, stubby little canine teeth.

[afhdfh]

And our shortened small intestine. And the lack of chlorophyll digesting bacteria. :)

[Wellgot]

@theoriginalcoolkid That's not true at all, but more importantly, humans are not at the stage of being limited by what we're 'made' to do. If I want to eat meat (which tastes brilliant), my body is plenty adapted to do so.

[poootietang]

cool :) , i took some of this too ,but hey ...it's very hard to find them ,they hide so fuc* *ng  well heheh XD

[TriumVirateABAP]

The Octopus is good eating but very rich in metals and calcium. I am not sure if eating this regularly as a part of a diet is wise but NOTHING goes to waste, absolutely NOTHING! You are blessed with it's nutrient purpose.

[arianna095217504]

wow thats....

Cant beleive people can do that to somthing we find amazing especially something that.

dick wad!

[sr8]

Its called dinner. Humans kill animals every day for food. I wasn't torturing it or abusing it in any manner; the octopus had been dead for several hours. Just documenting how its camouflage was still working. Next time you eat that burger or chicken sandwich, thing about how it got there.

[aggravatedferret]

@sr8

I agree with you completely. They're my favorite animal, but it's still food. People need to get a grip. =P Awesome video.

[MonikadeVilette]

@sr8 glad i'm a vegetarian, all i have to think about is apples being cut from trees or potatoes dug out.

[thomas1510]

errr yeah and I can't believe people kill any animals for food. they're all just as amazing even if some are not as rare or spectacualar looking as others. (I do eat meat myself but I don't eat muchand I would rather not eat any at all) .

[DinosRawrz]

O M G! SUSHI BABY!!

[maeuschen22]

poor ocotopus!! :( :(

[Killernation]

why are you killed an octopus?!?!

[katiewhaaa]

Rorschach octopus, ha!

[JESSYooo182]

:-( poor octopus

[TriumVirateABAP]

You mean RICH Octopus, because it got to it's Originator before YOU, and it is now in Bliss where as we are still left down here to sort it all out in the great struggle for the cause.

[chaseef]

Thats how you know your sushi is fresh: if its still changing colour. :P

[Thorralf83]

is it allready dead? If yes, how is it possibe that it's still changing its colour?

[MyNameIsBret]

Ever see a chicken run around with its head cut off? Same.

Some portions of the body have a delayed reaction or are just separate entities altogether. Even human beings can twitch and/or have spasms (or do other bizarre things) after dying.

[Thorralf83]

Ok, than it is an indicator for the freshness of the meal if the row octopus is still changing the skin colour.

[cagurl714]

ya.. its kinda the same reason why the guillotine was outlawed.. because it was believed that the head was still able to feel and have thoughts after it was cut off

[Nikita44444]

Amazing creatures.

[sanisterg2008]

They do that when they die?

[sr8]

I think its camo was going berserk.

Yeah, this one had been dead for several hours before I brought it home. I had it in a white cooler on ice and the octopus changed to white (to mimic its surroundings). It started turning that brownish color when I took it out of the cooler and put it in the kitchen. The octopus had been dead for more than two hours, but its camouflage was still reacting to its surroundings. Its an amazing animal, even when its 'dead'.

[sanisterg2008]

So what did you do to it?

[sr8]

sushi

[luxsk8]

AHAHaHahaha xD

[cagurl714]

yummm :D

[MaPaCha]

that shit is awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

but it kinda looked at the beggining like it was bleeding or something.

cool.. thanx for posting it

[tonebone0011]

That's awsome. I didn't know it can do that after its dead. You might need a new cam though, its makeing a lot of noise.

jk

[sr8]

yeah my camera at the time sucked, someone told me how to change some settings to get it to stop making the clicking sound. I'll use a better camera next time though :)

[Ebrithil]

That's pretty cool.

[roxy2488]

OMG [2]

poor little animal [2]

[neithere]

poor little animal

[stuartkwgreen]

cool video to see,

but i think i'll order the sea bass

[deerhunter276984]

OMG

[jemoederdik]

OMFG that will be yummy yummy can i eat it!?!

[phobicangel]

you people are all morons its a fucking cuttlefish. kinda like an ocopus but way cooler. it can change, shape, texture, color and pattern. look it up its very cool!

[ohuali]

Uh.. that's a an Octopus. Cuttlefish are EXTREMELY distinct in shape besides all Cephalopods (minus the Nautilus) are capable of changing the their pigmentation, shape and texture. Cuttlefish are just better at it..

and it is very cool but you might want to pay more attention to their shapes and placement of the tentacles other wise you'd know the difference.

so uh.. if you wanna call people morons you might want to know what your talking about, M'kay!

[BabyWithKnife]

NO WAY! a cuttle fish is worse att all those things but color changing, and cuttle fish are even outdone by mimick octopuses. A cuttlefish has a sceleton make of cartalige, they cannot squeeze through a hole biggger then half thier body size, but that octopus coudl have fit through a hile lise than an inch across!!!

[GastNdorf]

You're going to eat that??? °_°

[cmdiaz1]

i think he bought it at the market ... to eat it or something

Then when he was at home he just notice that its still alive and took his cheap cam that cant zoom in and he trys to click for his live O_o or something like that ?

[DamscoTotAgga]

[raidenisdead]

octopus change color to camouflage them for self defense. pretty amazing.

[qaz63108437]

zzz it is the fucking blood

[mlesheppard]

you stupid sick asshole

what the fuck is wrong with you.. doing this.. and recording it and posting it?! your fucked!

[tyrone199]

what are you, a person who has lived a life of never harming or contributing to the harm of any living thing in your life? for god sake it was already dead, of course it's not nice but civilization isn't nice you just have to get over it, and stop moaning when its extremely likely you contribute towards it with your lifestyle in one way or another.

[calvinj15]

whats with the clicking?

[amysmall222]

why would you kill it?

[MeinCtutWichG]

Sad! You are a Bastard

[Zane560]

its has abrian fungus a sea one. cuntrls its body, brains ded body movin now its just changing colour cuz u chop eh up.

[jeemobon]

terrible.

I recently realized that octupeeps are the coolest animals alive. Negative points for annoying clicks, fuzzy picture, and general neglect

[eddiebmx]

neat

[illeatu2]

another video of someone filming their food.

[Candy2Lolipop]

lol

[3eyedho]

Mmmmmm! Din-Din awaits!

[BeautyGirl3000]

ew 

ew

[TMart1245]

when an octopus dies i am guessing in its last moment its camouflage goes haywire?

[HooHah13]

Actually, I think that its brain is sort of short-circuiting right now.

[PistachioMuffins]

Octopodes are really cool.

The way it was folded up like that kind of freaked me out, though...

[jpetrucci05]

One of the few people that knows octopi isnt the correct plural.

[Rmg12]

I know it annoys me when people argue octopi it is either octopuses or octopodes.

[alpelue]

thats nasty lol

[Himaxbladers]

nojento

[Awesbom]

Octopi...such beautiful creatures...'tis a shame it died.

This video is amazing. I absolutely LOVE these animals and most of my artwork is based on them. Thank you for posting this.

[jazzimusprime]

Sorry for the correction, but the term for plural octopus is octopodes, not octopi.

[rofltube]

sorry for the correction but 3 terms are acceptable: octopodes, octopi, and octopuses

[r34lpolitik]

Yum.

[panicfan8292]

this is REALLY COOL and all but i think i have 2 go throw up......... cool video with good quality, though

[xkrnjjxx]

rad sr8 try and hold an auction 4 it lol

[xFlloyd]

You just turned me into a vegetarian. Disgusting.

[Ikihorna]

I hope u ate that..? I just hate it when ppl kill animals without a damn good reason.

[IsaacCS]

Wow, that was cool and sick at the same time. What was with all the clicking noises?

[sr8]

I was recording with my Nikon Coolpix, not an actual video camera, and it always makes that clicking noise for some reason.

[StormBrowne]

I used to have the same problem. If you turn the dial to video, then press the menu button, it takes you to video options. Choose the "auto-focus mode" and then "Single AF" and it won't click anymore. Awesome video by the way. I used to observe the same thing when I would catch them fishing.

[sr8]

Thanks for the camera help :)

[ohgoodlord]

Dude, i want a Nikon Coolpix, is it a good camera? I've heard it was, i was wondering to get a second opinion. =]
