The vast power of the ocean continues to surprise us all. When you think of the creatures that lurk in the depths of the ocean, you may envision the incredibly large, somewhat scary and all together fearless animals that you hope to never come in contact with.

The clever octopus below might be spotted while snorkeling on your family vacation. However when you see what this thing is capable of, you might think twice about gearing up for your next trip into the mysterious waters.

The scientists give the smart creature a screw-top jar with a crab inside. In other words – potential dinner. What he does next truly left us on the edge of our seats. His tactics are a tad frightening because of how accurate they are. This is one you just have to see to believe.
