The JoliPunk ‘Octopus’ video is slightly on the disturbing side. The short video consists of a pretty model against a stark white background, with the slimy and curly tentacles of an octopus escaping out of her lips and nostrils to a soundtrack by Datafone.

In some instances of the video we can see the girl tearing up as her raw calamari lunch attempts its bid at freedom. This definitely shouldn’t be viewed by seafood lovers, as the video can obviously spoil the appetite.
