Sounds like a story made up to explain a profusion of hickies to a jealous girlfriend...

Is the footage ACTUALLY on yourube?

All I can find are BS “news” sites with announcer voices reading the script and showing stock footage of an octopus and photos of a red neck.

It could be worse - the blue ringed octopus which inhabit Australian waters are small (8 inches max) but pack some of the deadliest neurotoxin venom in the marine world.

I’m still trying to figure out what him being a geologist had to do with the story. He wasn’t prospecting on the beach or anything like that...

Octo says:
“Dude, didn’t I just tell you to get the heck out of here?
I know you heard me.
Okay, Mr. Slow Learner. Allow me to repeat myself,
as I SMACK you upside your head!....Got it now?”

There have actually been a few recorded human deaths from octopuses, or octopi, or octopussies as I prefer.

Silly paparazzi- should’ve realized the octopus was on vacation and left him alone or gone through his agent if he wanted photos or an autograph. Sheesh.

My understanding is that the octopus is among the most intelligent invertebrates with the best memories of all of them.

Just another belligerent Australian critter, like a “streetgang” of drop bears, a shoal of carnivorous Sulfur crested Cockatoos, or giant mutant killer hornets, a Gigantoatraxids nest, or a bunch of them, called a Megamygalomorphae, that can attack a city.

Australia: home of the world’s deadliest creatures, including baby krakens.

Apparently.

" his preferred treatment for sea animal stings is vinegar"

I prefer an olive oil sauté with salt and pepper.

He must have tread upon Octopus’s Garden and the octopus lashed out with all eight.
