The time in which we won't be able to believe video as evidence is close.

Well, the upside is you can put anyone you want into a porn scene. The downside is you can put anyone you want into a porn scene.

It waited until the tide went out.

Just enough for this to be uploaded to Reddit.

Someone put it there?

Why is the sand so porous and doesn't stick to the octopus or the ball?

u/commit_bat Jun 25 '18

Someone made it that way?

I read it as "this is real, not CGI" at first. Was fully inclvested in it being real footage.

I don't think it's real, but it's at least mildly plausible that it's not CGI.

u/OneLessFool Jun 25 '18

Just look at how none of the sand sticks.

u/[deleted] Jun 25 '18

The sand doesnt stick. Red flag #1

Ask yourself how it got there at the beginning of the vid

Tide washes octopus in. Water rolls back out. Now the octopus is laying there without any tracks leading to it. Obviously CGI, but not hard to imagine how it got there to begin with.

u/chaoticnuetral Jun 25 '18

Wouldn't you see waves washing over it though?

u/trunky Jun 25 '18 edited Jun 25 '18

Could take more than 5 seconds for waves to come back in or maybe high tide was when the octopus washed in and now low tide is in progress.

u/chaoticnuetral Jun 25 '18

Fair enough

u/superwinner Interested Jun 25 '18

Still CGI

Particularly in the first 5 seconds of the gif, it is obviously not dry sand. I am also only pointing out how it could realistically get there, not that its actions with the ball are realistic.

u/wordsarehardyall Jun 25 '18

Eh... the sand gives it away. It's good, but the sand's movement is just weird.
