We can safely say that one thing you would never expect to see in a car park is a live octopus.
You could probably argue that you there is a slight chance you’d see one if it was an aquarium car park, but even then the chances are slim to remote.
However, this octopus managed to get lost somewhere along its journey and ended up slap bang in the middle of the concrete floor of a parking garage in Miami Beach, Florida.
Actually, it wasn’t his fault – it was actually this week’s supermoon that was to blame as it caused higher tides.

James Thomas explained to the Miami Patch: ”Due to the flooding underground or underground systems, as the tide rises you could have sea creatures making their way through the system (and) through pipelines.”
Florida resident Richard Conlin took the photos of multi-limbed visitor, who revealed that there was a happy ending.
He wrote on Facebook: “Security from the building filled a bucket with seawater, rescued it and placed it back in the bay.
”I spoke to them this morning and they said they believe it got away safely.”
