00:07 Good evening, Kapuso!
00:08 I'm your brother Kim, who will give you the trivia behind the trending news.
00:12 A vlogger's video that was viral online
00:15 where he was pinched and tied by an octopus's arm
00:19 before he was freed from this sticky situation.
00:22 [music]
00:25 These are news.
00:26 Many people became interested in this TikTok video
00:29 where the vlogger's arm was pinched and tied by an octopus's arm.
00:36 Oh, what's that?
00:37 It's a bad omen. You'll get hurt.
00:40 I was walking on the beach in Bicol.
00:43 I saw an octopus.
00:44 I tried to catch it with my bare hands.
00:47 But before he could catch it,
00:49 I couldn't catch it.
00:50 But it left two tentacles on my hand.
00:53 It's like it's cramping your skin.
00:55 It's sucking it. That's why it hurts.
00:57 How did Chris Teo get rid of the pinched arm?
01:01 Brother Kim, what's the difference between a pinched arm and a squid?
01:05 Brother Kim, what's the difference?
01:06 Octopuses and squids are cephalopods with arms.
01:11 But unlike squids, pinched arms don't have tentacles.
01:15 What's the difference between a squid and an octopus?
01:17 Squid has suckers on its ends
01:20 while an octopus has suckers on its whole body.
01:23 When an octopus's arm is cut, it grows again.
01:26 This process is called regeneration.
01:28 According to experts,
01:29 an octopus's arm can feel stimulus for an hour
01:33 after it's cut.
01:35 Each arm has a cluster of nerve cells
01:37 that can control its movement.
01:38 That's why it has eight small brains
01:41 except for one of its big central brain.
01:43 Once it feels danger,
01:44 it would release one or two of its arm
01:46 because it can generate it back
01:48 to distract it from pursuing the full animal.
01:51 How did Chris Teo get rid of the pinched arm?
01:56 I just forced myself to remove it.
01:58 I got bruises and small, round scars.
02:01 That's why we should be careful of the animals we see in the sea,
02:04 especially in one of the world's largest mountains.
02:08 With its weight of 50 kilos and an arm span of 14 feet,
02:17 the Giant Pacific Octopus is considered
02:20 the largest octopus in the world.
02:22 It's also one of the strongest.
02:24 The largest sucker of a Giant Pacific Octopus
02:28 is 2.5 inches long
02:30 and can hold a weight of 16 kilos.
02:33 For more trivia,
02:35 tweet or comment at #KuyaKim.
02:39 What's next?
02:40 Always remember,
02:41 "What's important is what's known."
02:43 I'm Kuya Kim and I'll answer you 24/7.
02:46 My fellow "Kapuso",
02:49 What's important is what's known.
