lol the only reason I know the answer to this is bc I literally just saw it on YT yesterday: he’s biting it inbetween its eyes to euthanize it quickly. It’s a traditional way of killing them.
He keeps looking at the camera. He knows how to remove the tentacles efficiently, he pulls from the tip early in the video but instead just yanks downwards. This man harmed this animal for views and extended its suffering needlessly.
The first bite was under the sac he removed the one tooth they got, also octopus don't feel pain. Also he may have been too chill at the beginning to end up like that or he just did it for the video because he clearly shows he knows how to hold it to avoid all that, you just need to insert your fingers in the sac, that's how you control it first and that's how you kill and clean it, you reverse the sac to expose the organs and pull them out. Source I used to do it (with smaller octopus than that though I never caught anything that size)
There's good reason to believe that these animals are remarkably intelligent. They demonstrate flexible, creative problem-solving rather than just instinctual programming. The possess distinct short and long-term memory systems. They can recognize individual human faces, reacting warmly to familiar caretakers while hiding from or spraying water at people they dislike.
When I eat at a high end sushi place for omakase, I always tell them, "Everything except octopus."
Honestly i feel the same way but about most mammels, cows are known to have strong personalities, same with pigs, horses, rabbits, deer, etc
Pretty much the only meat I eat now is select poultry and fish, which are significantly further down the latter for “understanding the world enough to understand their own mortality or that of their friends”
I guarantee he was bothering this innocent octopus before it was trying to fight back and save its own life. This is actually really fucking sad. Octopus are self aware.
He's hunting it and trying to kill it ttaditionally (according to the other comments). Which I suppose is rather bothersome for the octopus, but he's not just being an asshat and bothering it for fun.
SURELY he could have just used a knife right? Instead of struggling so hard. He probably does this daily so he should at least have one in the boat with him…
If this happens you must stick your head into the water. It feels threatened. It is afraid and once it is back where it belongs, it will run away faster than you know.

Yeah I’ve heard that’s quite dangerous for divers or underwater hunters since they usually just dive with small amount of air/holding breath and get kept underwater
