Those 2 things are so funny... I'm loving the Octopus chair. But...$56,000?? Wow!! Do you know how much camera equipment you could buy with that??

"Strike the proper tone at your next dinner party by parking yourself on a giant octopus..." That is just TOO funny! ROFL!

I wonder if Mom would like that in her living room?? LOL

Lol, nice post.

The first one does make sense. An older friend of mine was in his late 60's and started having problems getting around. He had a young German Shepherd that he used to take for walks all the time, but just couldn't get to it anymore. So he bought an old treadmill off of craigslist and put a couple ropes on the sides just to keep the dogs focus forward. And the dog seems to love running on it. Sometimes he'll just go and stand on it to let him know that he's ready to go for a run lol.

Now the octopus chair.. lol.. $56,000.. I'll admit it does look cool lol, but maybe $300 cool . For $56,000 it better give me a back massage too lol.

Dang! For $56,000 it better massage my back, make me coffee, answer my phone calls, and come with a huge plasma TV! Basically I would expect to never have to leave that chair unless my life depended on it lol

I would only buy if it came with a 1DX, 50 1.2, 85 1.2, and 600 f4

Oh, and a M9, 50 f0.95 noctilux, maybe even a Hasselblad H4D-40.

That's what I was thinking, too. It had better do more than just sit there!!

Maybe it can do the tap dance to polka music...

I still want one though. It's awesome. In a kind of weird and scary sort of way at the same time...

Never mind... these are the only two Octopus chairs they have on eBay. No huge, cool ones.


Melissa and Doug Flex Octopus Kids Chair


Jaxx Critters Octopus Kids Bean Bag Chair

So it looks like I won't be getting an awesome Octopus chair anytime soon. Sigh...
