Deadly octopus
An Irishman in Australia had a lucky escape after posing with a deadly octopus for a picture.
John-Paul Lennon found the blue-ringed octopus while fishing in Bundaberg in Queensland.
The creature carries enough venom to kill 26 people within minutes.
An Irish man, who put a blue-ringed octopus on his arm for a photograph, claims he had no idea the animal could kill him. Speaking exclusively to 7NEWS, the 24-year-old says the one that didn’t get away makes for his best fishing tale yet. @ChloeAmandaB #7NEWS pic.twitter.com/qY89sjL53x
