Octopuses don’t have bones, so their ability to squeeze into small spaces is pretty much only limited by the size of their hard beaks (and yes, octopuses have beaks). Even if you know that octopuses lack bones, it’s still incredible to watch one of these intelligent cephalopods contort itself to fit into or through something much, much smaller than itself. A popular video on social media shows a medium-sized octopus squishing itself into a tiny wet hole in the sand. As it does, it makes the most delightfully disgusting sounds.

Accuweather shared the video on Instagram earlier this month, and viewers are torn about whether the sound of the octopus slurping into a hole is hilarious or repulsive. Perhaps it is both.
Turn your sound on for this one. Watch (and listen) as an octopus squeezes into a tiny hole:
