The blue ringed octopus has been known to kill humans. It injects a paralytic venom that leads to paralysis, and subsequent respiratory failure. While artificial respiration is advised, there is no known antidote for this venom. The Pacific Octopus is also capable of killing a human being, but this phenomenon is incredibly unlikely, and almost unheard of.
