Amazing octopus footage...Have a look here!

I was diving with Tim and Tommi Mattson from Wisconsin, off Baracuda reef when all of a sudden we came across this Octopus who had just attacked a large caribbean crab. He first removes the shell enclosing the head of the crab and then trys to walk away with the crab legs and meat of the head. Notice all the little tropical fish around him in the beginning of the video. They are eating little bits of the crab as the octopus seperates the meat from the hard outer shell of the crab.Enjoy!

How cool to come across something like that! Nice work - remember that spot for when we're there in December!
