Friendly octopus swims up to tourists to 'show off'

Impressive footage filmed by a Briton of a "friendly octopus" swimming up to tourists off the Egyptian shore to "show off."

The video, filmed off the coast of the Sheraton Soma Bay Resort in March of this year, shows the the octopus fearlessly gliding through the shallows.

It then stops in front of the group of tourists and spreads its tentacles as wide as it apparently can as if it's showing off.
