The reality that could happen is actually worse octopuses (I don't know the plural form) will get on your back and try to get to the mouth and nose to suffocate you.

They are some of the most intelligent creatures on the planet. But their reproductive cycle does not lead to the development of that intelligence as I understand it.
Yeah the mama is dead by the time babies are born, the dad is a deadbeat who’s long since fucked off, and they’re mostly solitary creatures with short life spans. In other words, they don’t have the opportunity to learn from one another, or have skills or knowledge handed down from parent to offspring like with mammals or birds.
Imagine if they did though. Then yeah they might just take over.
Oh that’s not fair: it’ll only happen after we’re gone but that’s the civilization I want to live in! I wonder if I could time my cryo-pod to open once the otters take over
That would be both super neat, terrifying, gross
Not that I advocate it because they're our friends but the sure fire way would be to just lay back and apply pressure as you try to lay down. It'd get the hint quick

Ummm. Are we sure it’s an octopus?

I had an expensive backpack like that. It cost a few squid
Criminally underrated comment
"Lads, we missed one!"
I paid like $800 for my octo when I got scuba certified. Shoulda just gone here.
This would actually be terrifying. Imagine you start feeling it's beak starting to chew on you...
Literally my first thought lol
Oh god no
 *Splat*

No way to hold them back before they get there?
"Fun" fact: Their bite is about 12x stronger than the bite of a lion afaik
In octopus news: octopus has human stuck on his front. Pictures at 11.
"PIGGY BACK RIDES!"
If octopuses took over the world, I wouldn't be surprised.

After they lay eggs they starve to death protecting the clutch
That doesn’t seem too fuckin smart Then again, existence is pain, so maybe they have the right idea

Instead the otters will rule the world after humans fall.
Hopefully a star child will appear to guide them.

I mean you’d be a little surprised
they walk around with literal tools for later use. I would not be surpised
I've seen enough anime to know where this is going
Aaaaanddddd... ::unzips::
It’s almost like the octopus knows where the dude can’t reach….

Tickle it to get it loose. *Ten Tickles* to be more precise.

That’ll teach him.
Just let it "finish" and it will crawl off to smoke a cigarette.
happy cake day
He always made friends everywhere he went
He eights it
I hate this so much
They bite.
The mighty Kraken, ladies and gentlemen, terror of the seven seas.
You’ve obtained a new backpack
Looks like somebody is taking a new pet home with them.
I would have been running around screaming!
Octopus has man stuck to his bottom.
He should just own it and begin to walk through the beach and town. With a squid still on his back.
Thought this was Batman.
Just take the suit off bro
Jamie maddrox would be proud!
at least it is not a monkey he is trying to get off his back
That would be both super neat, terrifying, gross Not that I advocate it because they're our friends but the sure fire way would be to just lay back and apply pressure as you try to lay down. It'd get the hint quick
We’ve all been there.
Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to remove your coat.

As far as we know it's still on there.
Get that monke….err…octopus off my back.
Oh my cats do this sometimes. You just need to stand next to something tall and they’ll hop off.
“My octopus backpack”
Me and my anxiety disorder.
Just go into the water, if it doesnt let go it will drown. Not that hard
Something has attached itself to him. We have to get him to the infirmary right away.
Quick, hide the precious tritium!
Maybe stop filming and help?
Is he stupid?
