A diver captured the amazing moment a Moray eel tried to take on an octopus, before setting its sights on the diver himself.
This frightening encounter of an eel engaged in eight-tentacled warfare suddenly got a lot scarier when it launched secondary an attack on the snorkelers.
Swedish couple, Nicklas, 29 and Elin, 23 were filming their snorkel in Hanuama Bay, Oahu, Hawaii when they came across a moray eel struggling with anoctopus.
After the octopus broke free- one tentacle lighter- the huge wound-up eel left in a cloud of ink turned on the holidaymakers like a scene from a horror film.
Military officer, Nicklas said: "Me and my girlfriend was snorkelling early in the morning in the famous Hanuama Bay.
"We had been in the water for about 30 minutes, we had already seen the eel earlier.
