A curious octopus mischievously grabbed hold of a diver’s underwater camera and turned the tables, capturing the diver on film using his own camera.
“I dove down to retrieve it with a different camera and was surprised to see it in front of me, recording me,” the diver recounted.
This one-of-a-kind encounter between a human and a cephalopod took place in Cannes, France.
