One octopus at the Seattle Aquarium decided he had spent his final day restricted to a tank and finally built up the courage to make a run for it. 

Unfortunately, this brave little fella didn’t make it very far.

Using his tentacles to inch his way up the side of the glass, the octopus gets a glimpse of freedom until one of the aquarium’s staff members ushers him back inside.

I don’t think I’m alone when I say maybe they should consider adding a lid to this tank! Watch and SHARE this unsuccessful escape mission with everyone you know!
