Britney Taryn has been taken to TikTok after she and her son Leo (6) had a harrowing experience at a Texas aquarium when an octopus latched on to her boy and refused to let go.
The two had been visiting and touching the sea creature for three years without incident. After a hiatus from their routine, they returned to the facility and were awed by its size, to the point that Taryn checked with the staff to make sure it was the same Octopus.
Little Leo is now walking around with string suction bruises running the length of his right arm.
