Octopus stuck in jar
Wed Mar 11, 2026 12:27 pm
An Octopus has become completely stuck in a jar after showing off to his marine mates.
Following derisive hoots from a nearby basking shark, the octopus was goaded into demonstrating his jar opening skills, and then continued on and climbed right in. Bruce Fishson, from the Academy of Aquatic Studies, said "Its well known that octopuses can open jars and climb into them, so I don't really know what he was trying to prove. Its also well known that they can't get out of jars at all, so he was a bit daft doing it if you ask me."
Lifeguards have decided to wait for a few more days to see if the jar drops off naturally, but if not they plan to pour salt all over the poor creature, because they know that kills slugs and they think it might work on octopuses too.
