00:00:04.680 --> 00:00:07.240
There it is everyone! It's the bottom!

00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:14.940
And I'm super excited to be here on our final dive of our, Deep Connections expedition 2019.

00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:18.580
And our first site is the cutest octopus ever!

00:00:19.880 --> 00:00:22.280
I really enjoy watching octopus behavior.

00:00:26.960 --> 00:00:30.860
They are way too smart for their own good, in terms of solving puzzles.

00:00:30.860 --> 00:00:37.700
They pass the mirror test, they can recognize their own reflection as a reflection not as another creature.

00:00:37.700 --> 00:00:42.520
At this point, I'm half convinced that if they had opposable thumbs they would be our overlords by now.

00:00:47.340 --> 00:00:50.580
Is that an octopus climbing up the rock in the background?

00:00:51.620 --> 00:00:54.120
Good site, I didn't see that. That's pretty cool.

00:00:56.540 --> 00:01:02.460
If I recall correctly, as well, they have kind of little independent neurological substations

00:01:02.460 --> 00:01:04.600
for each of their tentacles. Is that right?

00:01:04.600 --> 00:01:05.300
That's right.

00:01:05.420 --> 00:01:11.160
So, their tentacles sort of have their own mini brain.

00:01:12.080 --> 00:01:12.980
That's pretty awesome.

00:01:17.440 --> 00:01:20.380
So many cool octopus things!

00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:26.280
This is what the final dive of our expedition should be like: full of octopods.

00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:31.800
Just wave your hands in the air, like you just don't care!

00:01:33.120 --> 00:01:37.760
So, everybody at home, stretch out like an octopus.

00:01:38.180 --> 00:01:39.740
Do some moves.

00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:43.120
This is your octopus interpretive dance time.
