"You gained intelligence?"
octopus: "yes"
"What did it cost?"
octopus: "shell"
gonna be the first reply just because i can
"But then I found this styrofoam Big Mac container from 1989, so I'm good now."
It's not only the shell. It was not mentioned in the video, but cephalopods without a shell have very short lifespans, 1 to 5 years or so, which is unique for an intelligent creature. While more "dumb" and primitive armored cephalopods (nautiluses) live more than 20 years.
Too bad you're not old enough to remember W.C. Fields or Jackie Gleason. You may have quoted them speaking of a pittance as a "mere bag of shells".
Why am I reading this like Thanos and lil Gamora from Infinity War Lol
I gotta go to work in 4hours and I'm over here learning about octopuses at 2 AM
Have done the same, many times too🙄. Usually under doona cover so as 2 not wake my partner, 🤗
same
We all are

What in the world is a doona ? You mean, Dora The Explorer ?

- ''I lost my shell bro''
I hope there is an updated version made. Octopuses and squid are now known not to be colorblind but just as their intelligence evolved differently than chordates their color vision is completely different. They only have a single type of photodetector and the fact that lenses are achromatic and have non-circular pupils and their visual system is much more complicated than ours so as to be able to extract color diffraction around the edge of the pupil and the achromatic distortions caused by lenses.
Wow! Now I hope there is an updated version too
Did you see that there is new(ish) research that cephalopods produce much more microRNA than most species outside of mammals. We think there is a correlation between making microRNA and being able to learn.
Nature is fking wild, man 🐙
The second sentence made me think of the cartoon by The Oatmeal about the mantis shrimp, with its 16 primary colors to our 3. And every video on cephalopod intelligence confirms my belief that people expecting aliens to be bipedal vertebrates with a head and 4 limbs...might not see them coming. 👽
Octopuses can feel colors?
Ever since I was 8 years old, I've wanted to be a marine biologist. I would always wonder about all these amazing creatures that are found in the ocean... My parents wouldn't let me have my own phone, so I would ask them if I could watch a video on their phone about sharks and dolphins and all marine animals I could think of. My cousin is currently in university studying to become a marine biologist, and she lives on the opposite side of the world from where I do, yet every night, we talk about these mysteries of the ocean through messages. Although I am still in school and still have many years of school and high school, I still want to be a marine biologist. These videos of the ocean makes me even more curios! Thank you for sharing this information.
Marine biologists are some of the best people. I met one when I was in high school field trip. He was a person who knew a lot about how nervous system of octopus works and he had a huge collection of octopus inks. I loved asking him questions. I wish you the best to become a marine biologist.
Me too! It’s interesting to see someone with such a familier story!
Do it!
I’m in school for marine biology! You should do it too!!!
Live your dream....
"Lose your shell, and gain enlightenment" -Octopus
Wow!! That’s very profound
if this was a good video, it will mention if the octopus have some vestigial DNA to form a shell to allow she tell us the story about losing the shell.
That’s deep on so many levels
Let the Humans make the skulls.
-Octos
The snails could never.
> ditched the shell
> evolved intelligence
So this is what it means to leave your comfort zone
Epic observation
There's a lesson here.
quite literally. the only way to evolve is to leave or change the environment you're adapted to.
Im stuck
Technically, the one who are intelligent will be able to survive outside the comfort zone. If you are stupid and leave your comfort zone you are still gonna die. lmao. It'll probably be 1 of your 10 kids that survives due to intelligence and carry on that genes.
This channel inspires a sense of wonder about nature in me that I hadn't felt since I was a kid. Thank you so much
Octopus: finally I got out of my shell and can change literally😂
Having done a lot of diving - I can say that the octopus is an absolute marvel to encounter. Some (mostly the younger ones) are ... So curious. At first it's like "WOW! U THREAT?!" once it establishes that you are not, it's like "Eeer ... What are you then? I've never seen one of you around before." and there begins the act of mutual curiosity :3. You slowly reach with a finger, it sends a tentacle ... you both touch, sometimes they get frightened and clamp your entire hand, flashing black before letting go, but not swimming away. They are playful, find a shiny pebble, hand it to the octopus, it'll take it, check if it can be eaten ... discard it ... then a few sec after send a tentacle back to the pebble out of curiosity as to "why did he give me this pebble ... gotta check again for anything special". They really hold a very special place in my heart, it's not everyday that two species get curious about one another and attempt mutual understanding :)
Thanks for writing that. That was really beautiful and interesting to read.
@@abesapien9930 100%!
❤️
Agreed. Always loved encountering them in my diving days.
You just added something to my bucket list!
Millions of years from now octopi will be studying why humans destroyed themselves.
*you mean, human octopus hybrids
my sentiments exactly
I just pictured an octopus in a white lab coat looking through a microscope
The plural of octopus is octopuses
They'll be like.... humans only had 4 arms/legs?!
That was fascinating.
As a diver, I've always had a great interest in octopus. This just put it on another level.
Your content is so high quality! Congrats! I loved the Netflix documentary "Octopus teacher", cried at the end. These animals are amazing, more than we usually think!
Can we just appreciate the fact that there isn’t a single ad in this whole video?
You're right, also there is an embedded ad for the curiosity stream.
I dunno. Kinda want an Octopus now.
i never have ads -> I use adblock
Couldn't tell because I gotta flex my CZcams Red
Adblock - ftw
I worked with a marine biologist studying cephalopods. He had one big tank for octopuses and one for crabs, their favorite food. One morning he came in and found that one of his octopuses had pushed the lid open on his tank, crossed the floor and climbed into the crab tank. Soon it became a common occurrence. He decided to give the octopus a mild shock when he found it in the crab tank to deter it. Within days he came in and found the octopus had still gone to the crab tank, eaten it's fill, but then climbed back to its own tank to avoid the shock.
They are amazing animals.
LOL
I also recall a story of someone working at an aquarium, that gave its resident octopus its meal of shrimp. The person was working at their desk, when suddenly a shrimp hit them on the head. The octopus had escaped its tank and thrown it at them, solely because one of the shrimp it had been fed had gone bad!
@@Origamigryphon I'm loving this story, and it sounds completely plausible based on my experiences with cephalopods.
Right; planning in anticipation of future states of the world is something some categories of people are unable to do ... and require special accommodations (and get mad if you don't give them). Sad, ey?
I'm going to have nightmares now.
This is some crazyy shit to watch at 2am, im absolutely mind blown
The craziest part isn't that they can change color to match their surroundings (as Chameleons can), It's that they can change the DESIGN of said colors, to match the contour or natural look of whatever object its trying to match 🤩
The next time someone tells you, you need to get out of your shell; they’re offering you a path to evolution, intelligence and enlightenment.

Thanks for uploading!
This is a great video. And just an amazing channel in general. I love every part of science as it encompasses and represents our own inate curiosity as humans. And when it comes to biology I am obsessed. The life we are surrounded by is incredible, and that alone is a reason to live.

Thank you very much for this video. It is excellently researched (from the point of view of someone who does not deal with such issues professionally) and very well done, and it made me think a lot about how us humans tend to make often somewhat hasty and, above all, very often biased judgements about other species in our world. Thank you again for broadening my perspective and for collecting all these fascinating facts about cephalopods.
What a brilliant production. Thank You!
Octopuses: *sophisticatedly evolved to survive this long
Humans: whoa, this animal is amazing! Maybe we should eat it
They also eat each other, at least occasionally.
To be fair, it tastes pretty good
That, and dolphins 😔
Exactly. I'm actually vegan but i stopped eating octopuses like 25years ago when my grandparents brought me to fish them.
The sounds, the suffering, the continuos tries to escapes everywhere hit me so hard even as a child that i couldnt fish or eat them anymore.
Their ability to hide when i was going underwater, to disappear in front of my eyes, to watch me and interact with me!
I was amazed, couldnt stop watching them underwater.
They were the first animal to grab my attention, curiosity and definitely teach me something.
Many others came in the time, but they were the ones who changed me inside and started my evolution.
@@mytubthree I need you to jump into the ocean, with no equipment, and talk to those dolphins for a while. Maybe about an hour or two.
Octopus: I lost my shell 140 mil years ago
Nature: We gave you camouflage, texture-camouflage, shape-shifting abilities, and the ability to squeeze into any rock.
Octopus: ok then.
Plus, bring-your-own-shell-to-work days.
Octopus: takes coconut halves everywhere so still has a shell
@Win From Within The only thing your god is responsible for is reversing human intelligence.
@Win From Within Based.
@Win From Within God hired nature as the local manager of earth.
the coconut carrying octopus and the one playing with the scientist is so adorable.
the idea that another animal from this planet evolves to a point where we could talk back and forth with each other would be amazing.

I have always quiet epicure of your videos. Now, I have to break my silence to express to you my greatest admiration and gratefulness for the creation of these contents. Of a few contributing factors your videos have probably been the major reason for me to develop a free time interest in biology/zoology. I’ve watched several Insane Biologies and my jaw kept dropping upon the magnificent details of some creatures. You made me grow a fascination for so many animals in turn!
The quality of your videos is a blessing and gets the best out of CZcams: entertainment and education in one. Your soothing voice, background music, motion pictures, cuts, structure of the videos and contents make you my favourite CZcamsr and an inspiration to learn!
I really hope you come across this comment and can understand how much appreciated your is. I wish you all the best!
I don't know how I had found this video but that's pretty amazing the explanation about the octopus skin and the color change - thank you so much for sharing this ;
I'm rooting for the octopus. Movies like to make them seem like monsters, but they really are very vulnerable...
uh what movies lol???
@@jajajqk3779 not movies but just generally peoplr seem to be terrified of them
@CaliDorko ye i really love his horror i guees you call it
I’d assume it has some correlation to the legend of the Kraken.. A massive octopus from around Scandinavia that would attack sailors in the area. Similar to how owls are often perceived as these wise and intelligent birds, when in actuality they’re quite hostile and violent.
Check out ( my teacher the octopus on Netflix) aan and a wild Octopus became beat friends and I fell I'm love with octopus

Can we just talk about how the diver playing with the octopus was the most wholesome thing ever
No
He gave it a kiss too!!!!
I totally didn't cry at this part...
Imagine you're an octopus, scared of everything, then suddenly a land creature (human) dives down underwater, you try to keep your distance, but the land creature spots you. You are interested because you do not sence fear. The land creature starts to pet you, calls you beautiful, and you feel a connection, you bush. Then later you find out that same land creature was swimming around calling other sea creatures beautiful, saying the same things to others, octo has been played, and now heart broken.
Time stamp pls??? :)
if they taught stuff like this at school i’d actually listen
Exactly
If only our teachers were this entertaining and thorough
They actually do teach this at school. You just have to be lucky enough to go to the right school and perhaps live in the right country.
No, you wouldnt.
@@myguykaikai9215 No really, everywhere on youtube I read this "huurr, if school was like this I would pay attention".
I remember how classes were, and literally was about 4-5 "nerds" would get involved with the class while the others would chitchat.
"I would pay attention if was like that", no, you wouldn't because you already didn't when had the opportunity.
I doubt listening was the problem. Actually regurgitating it through a time-pressured assessment is.
Then again, I managed to do pretty well early in high school just by listening in class, with minimal study.
Amazing documentary 💕
Their eyes are pretty amazing. Ive loved octopus forever but just noticed in this video, their sight is pretty much omnidirectional. They don't have a preference in movement direction because they can don't have as much of a defined front instead seeing and moving in whichever direction they choose
Hey, I just had a thought about octopuses and intelligence being social: Octopuses may be social--internally. If their arms have semi-independent cognition, then an octopus mind might be more like a council or group mind than a unitary self. As I understand it, neuroscience is revealing that humans are not exactly unitary selves either. But for us the "multiple selves" are subconscious, more or less as portrayed in "Inside Out." But if an octopus' "sense of self" is somewhat plural, being localized to some degree in the arms, being an octopus might "feel" more like being a vessel with a mind-linked crew than being "a person" as we perceive it. Thus, a form of social interaction and consensus-building would be happening for an octopus at all times. That might explain why they are able to interact socially and play with humans even though they don't seem to have social structure among their own kind.
Anyway, it's just a thought. :)
Interesting thank you
This is a very Interesting line of reasoning... Actually this would also explain their intelligence. A single ant has almost no Intelligence but an entire an colony is very intelligent undertaking very complex tasks.
That is such an interesting perspective - amazing concept
Really cool idea
I was thinking about that too. An interesting thought to consider is that in a way, we too have multiple brains. Though the left and right brain in our body are normally physically connected, it is possible to sever those connections, which was something that used to be done to treat epilepsy. What's so interesting is that in experiments with people who have had thier left and right brain severed from each other, there seems to be some level of separate thinking there.
“But in their arms, which can smell and taste, and even think”
“So, what do you think, arm number 6?”
“I agree with arm number 2”
“Alright, we’ll go with arm number 2’s plan”
This is so good.
Well, a human brain also comprises of 2 hemispheres which are synchronized and in many cases both process same data. How often do you guys literally ask your left (right) hemisphere ? Look up voting mechanisms in automatic control systems that feature modular redundancy : oftentimes it's just stupid comparators that compare outputs of the redundant modules to each other and then to some threshold values. There might be a circuit that calculates, let say, a derivative, of the outputs, compares to the preset mathematical model and votes out the module whose data is considered bullshit. But that's it : just a dumb digital circuit, no formal thinking involved, you just have the ultimate decision at an instant. I assume we don't even recognize there could be some collective decision-making within our own brain, we just have the end results. Disclaimer : I am not a biologist, just speculating.
@@romank4905 Good.

@@kbxbrdr What’s confused you? Human toxicity has ruined our planet. Our view of animals has decimated species. We are apart of the animal kingdom; not above it.
Life is diverse for sure but humans are lonely. We’re the last of our family branch ( if you exclude chimps and orangutans). Think about it this way. If homosapiens coexisted with homoerectus, homohabilis, Neanderthals etc. Maybe we wouldn’t feel as lonely but hey here we are homosapiens occupying the earth with no direct relatives. I believe our existential crisis is justified

That octopus carrying the two coconut halves like walking with groceries was the best thing ever. “ Do-do-do-do-do. Off to do something fun” 😆 They’re so cute 🧡
Coconut halves will always remind me of that "Monty Python and The Holy Grail" movie. You know, since they were clopping coconut halves together to make it sound like they were riding horses. I just bet the octopus saw that movie! 😀😀

Absolutely amazing animal and another really great video. I'm hooked.
My favorite creature ever. I was on a crab ship in Russia. I was the green horn so I had to empty out the pots. I was also making hooch quietly because it was forbidden (it was lighting in a cup) so I could swap liquor with the chef for him making me private meals. One day there was an octopus in a crab pot. I tossed it a live well. Came back once everyone was off the deck. Was gonna take it to the chef. it softly wrapped itself around my arm and I felt like I could see the fear in its eyes. I couldn't do it. I took it over to the side of the ship, held it over. It looked down, looked back at me, let go of my arm, and worked its way down the side of the ship until it got to the water. AMAZING CREATURES!
I'm sure it will never forget your act of kindness :)
You're an amazing creature for recognizing and acting accordingly...
wow what an interesting story to read! You are a natural story teller, thank you so much. I remember once in Alaska when i was on the family fishing boat we caught a shark in a crab trap and I could tell how scared it was. we let it go of course but I’m surprised people think sharks are so dangerous still. It was so scared of humans!
@@crypticshadows well because when they arent scared we are scared on a 1 on 1 experience lol.Think of it like humans.Even the most cruel human being will probably shiver and revert to please dont kill me and cry mode when you get them to a corner but it still doesnt change that there is a monster within that shell.

The octopus is the most amazing creature on earth. Just incomprehensible.
Agreed, the truth is that I barely know what I'm going.
They are certainly amazing, but not necessarily the most amazing. The diversity of life on this planet of ours is simply awe inspiring, with creatures that defy all the odds and live in the most inhospitable places you can imagine.

Well put, Bruno dos Reis. I like the way you see things. Very well thought out!
OMG! Humans were alien-like all along in Octopus perspective
The word alien actually doesn't have to do with space. It's used to describe something that is from another country. The word has been retrofitted to instead mean from another origin in modern times. And even more bastardized to just being used as a synonym to different. It just managed to stick to the depiction of little green guys because Americans love to eat what ever we're given.
Reminds me of the anime: Suisei no Gargantia. Half the human race evolved themselves into octopi to survive rising sea levels.
Bruno dos reis... Br fazendo palhaçada até em inglês vê se pode kkkk
Absolutely amazing!
How do we even imagine an octopus "subjective experience", when its intelligence seems almost more like a collective cooperation with the arms rather than a "top-down" dictatorship (as our brains are, apart from the neurons in our hearts)?
Imagine being "the head" of an octopus, sometimes dragged along by the autonomy of your arms.
Or imagine being "the arm", dedicating your whole existance to the benefit of the other 7 arms and the head.
We cant even begin to imagine the subjective experience of such an organism.
God this makes me wish I could get back to school and pursue marine biology like little me dreamed of.
(realistically there is probably less holding you back than you think)
You can. Turn that wish into a goal.

Because regular schools aren't perfect. I don't mean that Schooling system can necessarily brainwash brighter students or its not beneficial for those who can't think and work independently.
But, there's exaggeration of so many unnecessary things & so much editing & omission of necessary/important things. So much misinformation also in history, science, economics, etc.
Masses are trained to become an obedient slave of the system.
Infact they have an agenda to indoctrinate people from childhood into what's right and what's not, what to believe and what to reject.

Wonderful content and explanation.
There is a long interesting story of an octopus in the Vancouver Aquarium who dined on specimens in other tanks and was very difficult to difficult to catch in the act because he stayed in his tank when watched. Even from behind barriers.
The staff had to turn all the lights out, quickly enter and hid behind a barrier and turn the lights back on. Then they witnessed the octopus climb out of his tank, go to the shrimp tank, eat the shrimp and then go back to his tank.

*starts blinking as fast as I can to get an idea >;0
LMAO *also blinks rapidly* :0
You are now blinking manually.
Why did i do this too😂😂😂😭😭
"the octopus lost its shell 140m years ago"
poor thing, we should help them find it
Yeah. I haven't left mine for about that long too.
140 milli years ago? If you mean million then it should be M... you're a power of 10^9 off mate...
how they know that?

I love them so much
This video contains so much information
And love it ❤️👍
AS FAST AS THE FASTEST BLINK YOU CAN DO! Literally everyone blinking as fast as possible, damn thats pretty quick.
EXACTLY
Makes you wonder if you even have free will or if you're just a mindless robot...
Looool literally me
200 milliseconds is 1/5 of a second. One thousand and one - five syllables. 1/5 of that is one syllable. You seriously can't blink your eye as fast as you can say "one" or "thou" etc.? I doubt.
My favorite part is "how could a creature evolve so differently from humans?" The answers simple evolution doesnt have a set path it's just testing until the test survives long enough to be added to the patch update.

Allah all mighty says in the Qur'an: Soon will We show them our Signs in the (furthest) regions (of the earth), and in their own souls, until it becomes manifest to them that this is the Truth. Is it not enough that thy Lord doth witness all things?
meaning, `We will show them Our evidence and proof that the Qur'an is true and has indeed been sent down from Allah to the Messenger of Allah, through external signs, فِي الْآفَاق (in the universe),' such as conquests and the advent of Islam over various regions and over all other religions.

Humans did not evolve from an animal. That's such a silly way of thinking. We We're Fearfully and wonderfully made!!! We were made in the image and likeness of God! Not an animal.
No proof of any god or science.
The answer is....WE DON'T KNOW.
Amazing. I am going to watch the Netflix series now too. I've been always fascinated by these wonderful creatures. The decentralised neural system , mimicry, gaming, and planning actions are just outstanding.
i have also been interested in pathology but i am still not sure, and this video really helps!
I think cephalopod intelligence is “hard wired”. An octopus has a very short lifespan, as little as 18 months, and has to learn everything from the moment it hatches completely on its own.
Its mother died before it emerged from the egg, so it is born an orphan. This has huge implications, because despite being intelligent it has no “mentor” to learn from.
It’s also a mollusk, so in a way it’s a slug with awesome superpowers.
They’re fascinating animals.
What is the reason they don't get old ? With more life time they would surpass us in a 1000 years.
And I heared that their next evolution jump is gonna be to move onto land and use their arms to navigate the trees
@@steviereedeker3314 eh man, no spoilers plz

Depends on the Octopus really I remember seeing a video about a species that guarded it's eggs for 4.5 years
@@steviereedeker3314 "... move onto land and use their arms to navigate the trees"
What blows me away is that they don’t live long; squid, cuttlefish, or octopus. But develop all these skills so quickly.
Work hard, play hard, babyyyyy
its in their genes 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
If they don't learn quickly, they'll die quickly...
@@octopus8420 it kinda makes me think of Bladerunner.

Amazing video! I am amazed by these creatures, they’re so cool 👍
I love how we both appreciate the ocean with not just interest, but a respect that is given to dangerous things, like an orca
One of the most amazing species of Octopus is the Mimic Octopus, it not only uses it's shape changing skin and camouflage to hide but also imitates other sea life both as a way to escape predators (when being chased by a damselfish it'll make itself look like a banded sea snake, which is a damsel fish predator) but also to hunt (imitating a crab to draw in another crab). The list of animals it's been observed to imitate is quite long (Jelly Fish, Lionfish, Sea Snakes, Zebra Sole, Flatfish, Giant Crab, Sea Horses ect) it has also been recorded imitating at least two species we don't know about (the same shape were recorded in separate locations being used by different individuals).
Mimics are fascinating, I believe they've been observed mimicking about 30 different animals and they seem to use each one for a specific purpose like the two examples you gave
How does it know which animal is a predator to a specific species?

@@sumarbrander3354 why you so pressed? It was a joke...
@@sumarbrander3354 We are not born knowing how to hunt. Just as no one is born knowing how to make fire. It is impressive how our collective of ideas has been added to and passed down for 100,000+ years. At the end of the day we are animals that eventually learned how to communicate more efficiently than every other animal. We chose to become more complex it wasn’t due to evolution.

They are so subtle at connecting information with ads at the end of the video, that I forgot what the video was about 😂😂😂
Danke für dieses tolle Video. ❤
Coincidentally my wife and I watched My Octopus Teacher last night. I'm glad to see Real Science cover this. Keep up the good work!
My Octopus Teacher inspired this episode. So good!
@@realscience hello real science, or should I say real engineering
I tell everyone to watch Octopus Teacher , best documentary iv seen in a long time.
I knew it! The whole intro looked so sinilar
Coincidentally? Lol... google Ad’s/ Cookies/ Auto suggest
It must feel damn awesome to be one of these guys. I mean, imagine being a shape-shifting, eight-armed genius with your brain spread throughout your entire body, able to feel the things you're thinking about. Besides worrying about the occasional shark or 4-star restaurant, I wouldn't half mind being an octopus.
4-star restaurants are apex predators of all life on Earth. XD What a great comment.
@@alantremonti1381 humans, man. We transcend the definition of apex predators. We get all scared when spiders and snakes show up and all that crap, but we forget how much we terrify the other animals on Earth.
Another imagination scenario; you are a simple animal, living a simple life of foraging, but every step you take is shadowed by the deadly threat of the ever-present, hairless primates that use their horrifying magic to consume everything in their path, bringing the trees themselves down in their wake. Hunted, pursued, and pushed to the very limits of your environment, you live in constant fear that one day, you will see one, or two, or three, with the barrels of their deadly weapons pointed in your direction; or more likely not even see one, just die instantly to an unseen trap. Terrifying creatures we are.
@@alantremonti1381 true!
Octopuses are amazing creatures, but they also make for great nigiri and takoyaki.
Seals too. They like to eat them and why not? I bet when a seal catches an octopus he does a little high five with his bros!
thank you your content is wonderful and refreshing very good.
These videos are so fun to watch while fucking baked as shit I am learning so much
They dropped armor in exchange of speed.
And Stealth.
And Intelligence
And camouflage
If they could transfer the knowledge to future generations, they'd build civilization under ocean over 0.01 million years🤣🐙🤣🐙🤣🐙🤣🐙🤣🐙🤣
So that they could then slow themselves down by hobbling along to carry a cumbersome coconut shell around?
