Holy moly, it's a live face-sucker and next it will plant an egg in me which will grow and then explode out of my chest while I die in horrible agony. Aaaiiiiyyyeeeee!!!! (RT: Underwater face-off: Octopus attacks swimmer in spine-chilling video)
There's video for confirmation of some seriously twisted action when an octopus turns face-sucker on this guy and there were many things I sought to find when I went snorkeling but this was not one of them.
Being face-sucked by an octopus is only fair play as you would not remotely believe what divers do to prepare an octopus for eating. They don't just smash them on a rock, they do it over and over, and that's apparently to tenderize them. With all that whacking, it seems like they should turn into some kind of amorphous goo inside but they're good eating, just ask a Greek.
I liked sitting at the Kastro Bar near Katakolo since it has a gorgeous view of a seriously beautiful bay and it had one of the best beaches in the area running right in front. The water was relatively shallow and snorkelers often caught octopi out there to bring them back to the beach for dinner. Before that, they stopped at the rocks where they could smash the octopus all to hell. That was the ritual and I would watch doing it while thinking, damn, amigo, were you really that hungry.
So if there's a Great Octopus Uprising someday as payback, don't be surprised. That which happened in the video may be the start of it.
Note: Kastro has nothing to do with Fidel but rather it means castle in Greek. The Kastro Bar is at the foot of a rising in the land and that's where you can find Pontikastro (i.e. Mouse Castle) but there's not much left of it.
Kastro Bar really wasn't a bar so much except for the night-time beach parties since during the day it was more of a family cafe and was a lovely place to hang. I went up there all the time because they were great people who would let me use their WiFi for free but didn't care if I spent much as I (sob) couldn't.
Maybe if you're equipped like a mosquito then you would believe that bullshit about an attack and obviously (cough) reporters are but we're assuming you do a tad better than that.
The diver was just playing with octopus for the sake of selfie. He even went to the surface to get a better pic and he wasn't even trying to remove it. After he pulls it off his mask, he lets it screw around with his hand for a while and you can see his face-sucker is kind of tiny anyway.
I still wouldn't rule out a Great Octopus Uprising because there are much bigger octopi than that and they're smart. They know we're whacking their little cousins.
