Octopus Steals Video Camera and Swims Off with It

Sun Apr 18, 2010 11:48 AM ET .An octopus in waters off of Wellington, New Zealand, just experienced a wild ride.

Videographer Victor Huang was filming there when the octopus grabbed his camera and swam off with it while the camera was still recording. Huang thinks the shiny blue metallic camera caught the attention of the curious, and probably hungry, cephalopod.

Watch how Huang attempts to retrieve the camera, and check out the great close-up footage toward the end, when the octopus latches onto a speargun, leading to another mini adventure.
