Octopus Won't Let Go Of Diver’s Back Even After He Jumps Out Of Sea

Octopuses are fascinating sea creatures that many people enjoy learning about. They live down in the seabed as they are a bottom-dwelling creature that can survive in a very diverse marine environment. They can live in subtropical, tropical, and temperate regions. An octopus will move with their tassels if they are crawling on the seabed, or they can swim by sucking in water and then spraying it out with a lot of force.

If an octopus feels threatened or hungry, they can move quite quickly to get away. They only have about 4% of oxygen in their entire body, so that means that they cannot survive long outside of the water.

Octopuses are very smart sea creatures and have a very complex nervous system. The nerves of their tendrils are made of two-thirds neutrons. Experiments have proven that they also have both a short-term and long-term memory.

Baby octopuses do not learn much from their parents and don’t have a lot of contact with them. Experiments have also shown that some octopuses can learn how to distinguish between various shapes and objects. They are also able to find objects that humans have thrown into the lake.

In this particular video, we can see just how smart octopuses can be at times. A diver out in the middle of the ocean went deep down to explore one day. As he pulls himself up onto the boat, you can clearly see that he has a visitor hanging on for dear life. That visitor is an octopus!

The eight-tentacled creature was happy to hang on for the ride as the diver came up to the boat. For a couple of minutes, the man tries to get the sea creature off of his back by himself. He reaches around with one hand and then the other.

No matter what he tries to do, the octopus was having none of it. He was determined to stay on the man’s back for as long as possible!

Finally, another person on the boat decided to help the man out. He grabs the octopus and is finally able to free him from his back. It definitely took a lot of pulling!
