Seattle divers video giant Pacific octopus and hatchlings

WILDLIFE WATCHING -- Two Seattle divers shared a rare sight with KING 5 TV's Evening Magazine:  a giant Pacific octopus -- the largest species of octopus in the world.  

They tracked the GPO for 20 dives and came up with even rarer video:  GPO hatchlings, each one was about the size of a grain of rice.
