0:00:03 > 0:00:07On Deadly 60 I've had loads of incredible animal encounters.
0:00:08 > 0:00:11Here's just one of my many favourites.
0:00:11 > 0:00:14This is Deadly 60...Bites!
0:00:14 > 0:00:17'It's early in British Columbia
0:00:17 > 0:00:20'and in the depths of these waters lays a formidable force -
0:00:20 > 0:00:25'powerful, intelligent, flexible and fearsome,
0:00:25 > 0:00:26'and for the moment, hidden away.
0:00:26 > 0:00:30'But it isn't long before we spot something on the sea floor.'
0:00:30 > 0:00:32Oh, wow! Look at this!
0:00:32 > 0:00:39There's scattered shells... big chunks of dead crab...
0:00:39 > 0:00:41This is definitely the work...
0:00:41 > 0:00:45of the super-predator that we've come here to find.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48'The huge creature we're looking for
0:00:48 > 0:00:51'is a specialist at dismembering its armoured prey.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54'And it's leaving us a trail of clues to follow.'
0:00:54 > 0:00:57I think Simon might have one.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00'And the clues lead us right to its den.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04'May I present the giant Pacific octopus.'
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Now THAT is a big octopus.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15He's absolutely monstrous.
0:01:18 > 0:01:22I don't want my hand too close to his mouth because...
0:01:22 > 0:01:27he could actually do me quite a lot of damage.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31'The octopuses' hard beak can easily rip through a crab's tough shell
0:01:31 > 0:01:34'which means my hand wouldn't stand a chance.'
0:01:34 > 0:01:40This is... one of the most intelligent...
0:01:40 > 0:01:42invertebrates on the planet.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45And I think one of the most extraordinary creatures
0:01:45 > 0:01:47that we'll ever see.
0:01:47 > 0:01:53The giant Pacific octopus is definitely going on the Deadly 60.
0:01:53 > 0:01:54Come on!
