An octopus can squeeze through a hole about the size of its eyeball and transform its body shape almost without limits.

In the size of his eyeball isn't correct at all, the limit is the size of his beak, the only solid part of an Octopus, but I think that he don't like to squetch his eyeball if it isn't needed.
