In the video it looked like the octopus simply farted, I didn't see an attack. :1

Yea I guess my title is a bit misleading. It wasn't really too much of an attack. The ROV costs $200k and is uninsured, so the operator got scared and scared the octopus away before it could've done damage to it.

IMO, he should have waited longer to actually see if the octopus did attack. Could've gotten some great footage if he wasn't such a -----.
