In the video above taken in False Bay, South Africa, a octopus simultaneously holds a shark at bay with one arm while simultaneously wrestling three zip ties of a baited canister. There (see this) should be no doubt now that Mollusks have won.

He schooled that shark.
Hi there – this video is from our research at the University of Cape Town, South Africa. We work together with the South African Environmental Observation Network (SAEON) and are funded by the Save our Seas Foundation. The project aims to develop cost-effective monitoring for fish populations on the South African coast. The informatino will be used for conservation and fisheries management. Please visit our research blog at http://saveourseas.com/projects/bruvs_false_bay for more videos, information and visuals.
With the editing and fast-framing, I would have appreciated a time stamp to let us know how much real time had elapsed.
I enjoy ready on DeepSea so much. Wonderful vid. I highly doubt the Octopus cared what you called him.
cool… but i’d like 2 see him wrestle a great white… LoL…
