Ah, so that’s how you kill an octopus with your bare hands.

Today's tutorial in squirmy, abject horror comes care of a New Zealander called Josh James a.k.a. Kiwi Bushman and he's the real deal. Very Sam Neil in Hunt for the Wilderpeople.

He just published a new video to his YouTube channel, which is described as a "mix of random hunting, bushcraft and fishing videos," and um, it's graphic.

Why? He literally bites the brain out of a live octopus. Sorry, but it's true. He went ahead and killed a massive octopus using nothing but his goddamn teeth.

While comments on the video vary from adoration to disgust at the needless killing of intelligent life, one thing is certain -- Bear Grylls is a little cry baby with a skinned knee compared to this guy.
