Octopuses allegedly live underwater and have a whole bunch of arms. Oh, and if they lose an arm it will grow right back. Right, ok, sure. And they can unscrew jars, use cameras, and have different personalities. We're pretty convinced it's all a myth. How can these guys be real?? Just look at these octopuses and their relatives! Lies. All lies.
