BEAULIEU-SUR-MER, - A woman participating in an aquabike lesson in France said she was attacked by an octopus that immobilized her legs with its tentacles.
The woman, whose name was not released, said she was aquabiking -- riding an exercise bike submerged in water -- in Beaulieu-sur-Mer when she felt something moving around her legs, The Local.fr reported Friday.
The woman soon discovered an octopus had wrapped its tentacles around her legs, stopping her from pedaling.
Experts said the octopus was likely attracted by the movement in the water.

She was riding one of those silly water bikes? No wonder the octopus attacked her.

“Raise periscope!” the tube slid out of the water in a slick smooth slide of malice, intent on harm unseen.
“Range to target, three meters!” wait, what?
“Ready grapple!”
The target, oblivious on her aquabike, paid no attention at all to the bulbous eyes staring at her from just over her shoulder.
THEN!
TENTACLES!
SCREAMS!
THRASHING!
EXCITEMENT!
The culprit swam away snickering to himself behind his cephalopodal face features as his victim quivered and shrieked.
And on towards his next target he cruised, ever so silently on his twin water jets..

Much safer to aquabike at home.
