Man beaten up by furious octopus

Post by BenWickes » Fri Apr 02, 2021 5:56 pm

There's a few interesting stories on BBC news including Russians gathering by Ukraine but we'll leave that one...

Further down the BBC website the headline in the subject made me chuckle.

He don't look too happy :lol:

They can hurt too; one slapped me in Tonga and then bit me just to be sure, even with treatment the sting was sore for 2-3 days, then itchy for nearly a fortnight.

Not delicate, but still serious - it was my preferred drinking hand/arm

The pratt still went back in the water and seems surprised to have been attacked again.

Some folk don't have the sense that they're born with. :roll:

What a cuck

Chinned twice by an octopus...

Most people think an Octopus has 8 legs, in fact they have 6 legs & 2 arms, how do you know which are the arms I hear you say.
Give it a punch on top of the head, it will put it's 2 arms on its head when it says ouch !
Amazing what you learn watching the Blue Planet with Attenborough 😁
