I wish I could do that in BF2. Hmm... maybe if I jump off the carrier and cover my self in octopuses.

I remember seeing that a while back on another forum, and a debate quickly started over whether the footage was "edited" or not. What do you think? It seems a bit much to me. I can accept an octopus being able to change its color, but its texture? And to that degree? I'm a little skeptical.

**WhiskeySix** · 02-06-2006, 10:31 PM

<shrug> seems pretty real to me - i don't think the texture is actually changing, just the color...

I'm not a zoologist or underwater animaloligist so it looks cool to me.

If the movie weren't from ebaum, you'd probably be able to find out more about the critter.

I'm pretty sure it's real. If you go watch a Discovery channel (or PBS or something) show then you can see stuff like that. They change color really fast. Cuddlefish are like that too. It's pretty amazing.
