That is mind blowing. Far better than anything I saw the mimic doing that for sure! I wish there was longer footage to view.

It is all over the web in many different formats. Go to Google, click on New, and type in walking octopus. It will list several possible sites.

Roy, do you think this octo is tring to mimic another creature? Why would it "go out of its way" to utilize two legs to walk onthe bottom, if it could use jet propulsion in a much easier and quicker fashion????

Hahaha that is hilarious wow. The first one looks like someone running with grocery bags. Is this a recent trick or have we just discovered it?
Off topic, but Gonodactylus, is your avatar that deadly poisonous Hapalochlaena lunulata (Blue-ringed Octopus)? Can't it kill a human in one bite, because thats crazy.
