It’s crazy to think that mark was kept as a pet by an octopus for a couple months
LOL

Underrated comment. 😆
OH I did not get that at first that’s so funny also if you got a cat you don’t have a cat the cat has you!!!

it’s crazy that a sack of fluid and matter is able to squeeze through a finger sized hole while also being smart enough to problem solve and remember people. what an incredible animal

You do realize we are a sack of matter too
I'm so impressed by everything. But honestly, Mark, with all you've witnessed, you clearly had an attachment to Sashimi. I know it had to be hard for you to let her go knowing what would come next. I'm in tears because you really took care of her. You made sure she knew what to do when she returns home, and you didn't break down. That's really admirable. Letting go of that attachment is really hard for anyone, mammal or mollusk. I am curious what she thought about you. Having three hearts, eight mini brains, and a central brain, I imagine she had some sort of emotion beyond curiosity. I'm sure she was sad too.
Alright bro, relax
It’s not that deep
wolfofthepride I agree with you. After watching the video, I felt the same.
It would be interesting to figure that out from a scientific standpoint. Don’t let random people on the internet that lack emotional intelligence make you self-conscious about such a thought.
@@JH-no8sy Yeah, I was wavering with that. I gotta remember that my emotions are my own. I appreciate your input, friend.

If their lifespan wasn't so short, I swear they could take over
Can *and should* take over
Judging from the decreasing attention span of humans, I believe that they will take over, if they can survive the global destruction that humans have made.
Had a discussion with my professor about this! We firmly believe that the things that really set octopi aside from being far more advanced than they could be is their shortened lifespan. If they could live longer and possessed intergenerational knowledge like our ancestors did then they'd be well on their way to turning into a species capable of stuff like language, culture, etc!
I wonder if medicinals could extend octopuses' lifespan as they do with humans'

@alicjadrazkiewicz3383 not ALL memories - as it's not a generic statement, but for those interested... consider innate behaviors, and how they might be formed and modified over generations. Hope that helps.
@@selfretired3025 Thnx, I'll Google it
@@selfretired3025 "The innate, or instinctual, behavioral strategies that populations of organisms employ to navigate their environments and fend for survival are shaped over epochs of evolutionary selection"
Evolution really made a brutal choice with octopus lifespan. But in that short life they do leave squirrels in the dust.
As an animator once tasked with animating an octopus, I could tell their arms had independent intelligence. It’s the most difficult thing to animate bar none. Almost impossible to do it all 100% correct without cheats.
What’s the proof they have intelligence in the arms tho? Like what is the specific biological difference in their arms?? we have gray matter in our spines that also process and integrate (make decisions) without needing to go to our main brain. To me it just seems like standard sensory information from the peripheral nervous system being processed the same way we do our automatic responses.
are you a doctor?@@carsonhunt4642
@carsonhunt4642 So you're asking an animator about this? Like that's the profession that's gonna give you all of the info about this and make it correct.
@@carsonhunt4642well for one it you chop it off it keeps doing things, there's even been cases of octopus arms continuing to hunt after being separated from the body, draging food into a mouth that isn't there
Ok so a bit of background i am a 3D Modeler/Animator i was once given a project to sculpt and animate the character now the keypoint that the client needed was Realism so i had to make it lifelike 15 Hours........for 15 Hours i tried mimicking a creature that has no bones and basically works like a Sentient Alien Blob Of Goo . within those hours one of they key things i learnt is that octopus like the Cartoons or as an Animated character is much better and less time consuming than trying to understand an alien morphology and @carsonhunt4642 The proof is the literal fact that after getting an arm cut, the severed arm still manages to blend in and stay alive for almost an hour, this is not muscle spasms , its almost like an individual consciousness in short the severed tentacle is now sentient tho it cant feed itself (or anything in that matter) it will bide its time doing what a single copiousness with limited time would do Survive i dont think any other creatures in our planet other than squids and octopus have such an ability (i may be wrong , we know more about space than we do our own oceans 🤷♂)
It’s incredible how intuitively intelligent they are in such a short lifespan
It’s incredibly interesting that so much brainpower is in a “prey animal.” I know they are predators too but they live their lives assuming something is gonna eat an arm.
Thats so true, in 365ish days they learn all these amazing things.
@@maggiee639Brainpower is a lot more useful for creature in the middle of the food web. Knowing when something is food or if it's death is very important, and requires a lot of intelligence to intuit.
Be glad they only live that short. if they had 50 years or more, they would have overtaken the planet already

The part where she looks at you and twisted that thing with the ball is craaaaazy!!!!! 😮

I really think Mark should make Sashimi the mascot for Crunch Labs, even if she's been released, I think she represents everything that Crunch wants to represent, clever thinking, playfulness, a bit of sass, and ingenuity! An octopus is the perfect creature for something like this, and she's adorable and deserves to be remembered fondly for years to come!

12:50 she literally did warm up before going out 😂
While it's sad the octopus has such a short life span, I read in a book it's theorized the octopus experiences time differently than us due to the sheer amount of information they're processing basically all the time. I'd like to think in those really brief moments where they swim up and touch humans, it's like they're having days long conversations just from simple touch and taste and smell. And idk. Thinking about this just makes me reflect on how we can stretch out our perception of time just by noticing and appreciating all the things around us similar to the octopus.

It would be neat to see if the color of those things plays any part in the speed or ability to determine whether they have a function. After all, to the human brain, those colors signify that those things might have a purpose, bc they stand out- but if they were all camouflaged the same color, we wouldn’t immediately zero in on them as something of interest.

It’s actually so unfathomably incredible how amazing octopi are… like they’re unbelievably clever and have so many tactics like flexibility or camouflage!! These creatures should be protected at all costs, just like any…
And they all just learn it by themselves. Because the mother dies before her offspring is born, there is no 'cultural' way of relaying information, which has been hugely important for us to get where we are. We even see it in some of the great apes who use tools to get something done and teach it to their group mates. Who can imagine what incredible things octopi could do if they were able to teach the next generation. If they ever figure out, they might easily outsmart us.
