Octopus 'attacks' and steals GoPro camera in Ibiza

  • 7 years ago
An impressive video has emerged from Ibiza, Spain, of an octopus catching a man's GoPro camera as he plunges it into the water to film the creature.

The footage, shot by Andries Bik last month in a harbour, captures the moment the octopus launches one of its tentacles at the camera and detaches it from the selfie-stick.

After Bik manages to retrieve his camera he spends long minutes battling with the octopus to get his selfie-stick back.

"The octopus really tried pulling me in the water," he wrote online.
