Fact... The North Atlantic Octopus inspired Ford to invent mystichrome paint. :dancenana:

Just wait until I can get me some cephalopod gene splicing so I can have my own cloaking technology.

 

[Kevin the Clean 1]

That's amazing that even their texture can be changed as well...

the animal kingdon truly is amazing at what they can adapt to

^Not the animal kingdom, life in general. We're foolish if we think we're the only ones in the universe. Look at the different types of life forms living in all kinds of environments here on earth and our planet is hardly a spec in the scope of the universe.
On topic with OP's video it is amazing how quickly cephalopods can change their camouflage. Life is incredible.

 

[TorchMach]

I think aliens can do that too.

 

[Njc0las]

Super old but still cool.

 

[346CamaroSS]

too bad they are extremely difficult to keep in captivity. I want one.

[Black Sex]

lots of cool info there.
As a kid, we had a 175 gal saltwater tank with coral and other marine life. At one point we did have a octopus. They are pretty cool, untill we came home and found it in the other room...not in the tank. Same thing happened to a snowflake eel we had for awhile

 

[Paulinator]

cool!

 

[Darko]

Meh...I can do that

 

[Stang Lover]

Always like seeing that video. There's also a squid called the "Vampire Squid" like that too. Doesn't cloak exactly like that octopus but it's still cool.
