Over the past years, the Corona pandemic has affected many aspects of people’s lives around the world, and even left its impact on their favorite hobbies, and due to the difficult conditions that the world has experienced during the recent period, Oliver Striner resorted to free diving daily in Egypt, specifically in Sharm El-Sheikh. Over time, he began to observe the movement and habits of various marine creatures, and Striner once caught the attention of an octopus, and although among the shy animals, he was the most curious at the time.

Striner decided to put his camera at the bottom of the sea, waiting for the curious octopus to react, and the surprise was when he grabbed the camera with his sticky arms, as he tried to escape with it to his hole to take a closer look, and fortunately, the octopus could not take the camera, especially since its hole was not large enough to accommodate it, according to CNN.

According to the site cnnStriner, who was born and raised in Hungary, had to use force to retrieve his camera from the octopus’ sticky hands, while being careful not to harm the octopus in any way. According to Striner,.

Sharm El-Sheikh, specifically Ras Mohamed Reserve, is among Striner’s favorite diving destinations in Egypt, and Striner considers diving very interesting, where you can learn about the wonderful nature formations and marine creatures that make the experience perfect..

Striner said during an interview with the site CNN Arabic: “You live in a special state of mind underwater, where nothing else matters.. a pleasant silence.. you can finally hear and feel for yourself.”

Currently, Striner plans to stay in Egypt, where he will try to stay near the sea and continue free diving, and in the meantime, Striner will work to record as many unforgettable moments as possible, so that he can share them with people who love diving, and with those who cannot travel To the seaside or diving for a reason.
