Cool video Betty, thanks for sharing. That octopus was pretty pi$$ed.

Betty · Feb 18, 2014

Yeah. There was no way the diver was going to let go of an expensive camera for sure.

Seemed like the light of the flash was the main thing that got the octopus to let go.

Yeah that works with guys too.

Maybe that and some bear spray.

Looks like a great place to dive, although I didn't know there were octopus like that in that area.

Paparazzi will always piss off everyone & anyone.

Wow. #SaltLife is ever exciting. I'm so pleased I gave up squid a while back when calamari insalata was a bit too chewy that day.

Diver FTW via rapid fire flash bomb!
