Man this video is sure enjoying its 15 minutes at the moment! Pretty neat though.

.. the music selection is perhaps something I raise an eyebrow at slightly ...

One fellows comment made me chuckle.

"Didn't you realize that it grabbed your camera to lead you to the big wooden crate on the bottom of the sea filled with thousands of metal gold round things worth millions. Maybe next time"

That is an awesome video. Perhaps youtube isn't completely filled with junk. Anyone know where this was taken?

An octopus in waters off of Wellington, New Zealand, just experienced a wild ride.

Videographer Victor Huang was filming there when the octopus grabbed his camera and swam off with it while the camera was still recording. Huang thinks the shiny blue metallic camera caught the attention of the curious, and probably hungry, cephalopod.
