Watch as the the diver approaches what looks like a normal seabed bush to discover that hidden among among the branches is an octopus.
I’ve saw this one before..
It’s unbelievably amazing..
Unbelievably amazing… but fake I’m afraid.
yeah it looks a bit fake..!
oh.. it seems like it is real.. look at the comments on youtube.. people have seen this on stuff like animal planet and such
Thats real, the only reason why you cant see it until it shifts is because the video is at such a poor resolution. I’ve seen this exact clip on animal planet, and you can slightly see that its an octopus before it transforms.
In fact, this clip was made by Roger Hanlon (http://www.mbl.edu/mrc/hanlon/coloration.html and http://www.cephbase.utmb.edu/viddb/vidsrch3.cfm?ID=132).
