Some cephalopods are able to fly through the air for distances of up to 50 metres (160 ft). While cephalopods are not particularly aerodynamic, they achieve these impressive ranges by jet-propulsion; water continues to be expelled from the funnel while the organism is in the air. The animals spread their fins and tentacles to form wings and actively control lift force with body posture. One species, Todarodes pacificus, has been observed spreading tentacles in a flat fan shape with a mucus film between the individual tentacles, while another, Sepioteuthis sepioidea, has been observed putting the tentacles in a circular arrangement.
So what I’m hearing is that at 50 meters from the shoreline it is unlikely, but not impossible, that a squid may leap onto your face.
Yes. Depends on how big of a jerk you’re being.
50 meters would assume a flat surface of the water, not the gentle slope of a beach.
