Crabs: Hey, I saw that guy helped the little one before. This is our turn to help him, whoever he is!
That robot crab is a god among mortals, they saw how it distracted danger.

Cool that the older hard shells form a protective cover, mound to protect the younger soft shells... Brilliant self-defense mechanism! "A living Citadel" of survival in the wild. TY @BBC

Pushing the young crabs to dive down appears to increase survival. For some reason, in nature, the harder and stronger crabs try to stand on top of the younger crabs. This seems to me to be a suicidal act that is completely illogical. In the long run, however, the species of crabs that burrow under young crabs may have reduced their numbers.

Oh sure, when the older male crabs climb ontop of the younger female crabs to "protect" them its cool, but when I do it to young girls its illegal >:(

Ray be like: "I hate it when they bunch up like that."
I am blown away by how effective that ray's mouth is at extracting all the meat from a crab so quickly!! What the heck kind of inner workings are going on inside that mouth?!
Imagine it’s your first day when you get that hard shell and you’re out there to face Sharkie thing.
Omg I love this SO much! Spider crabs are one of my favorite animals they are so amazing

I love spider crabs too, they just look so alien with their legs and body shape, I love their armor and how they eat and act. Weird its my favorite animal but I love them. Specifically the Japanese spider crabs with their incredibly long legs.

@@ghostlyblue5735 I had one as a pet. Her name was Karkinos I had her since she was a speck it was from a seaweed experiment I had her 2 years before she died I regret not releaseing her any crabs I usually had as soon as I could see them I took them back to the ocean. It REALLY hurt my heart cause she’d make these kinda idk purring noises or more like at first it sounded like something was cranking idk how to describe it. I think she wanted her own kind but she’d molt right out in the open . If I had seen THIS before I would of contacted a local diving place to take her back for me cause he literally video taped a molting spot. I think maybe she’d been ok. Idk they can live like 20 years so yea I wish I let her go. I mean her tank was cycled it was big I planned on getting bigger it was just hers and a stone crab. I would suggest just watching stuff like this. It’s been over a year and it still hearts my heart when I see molts or dead spider crabs at the beach. I still have her molts. I thought I’d have her forever. But I mean high site she should been in the ocean finding a mate.

BBC: "A brief monument to teamwork." Crabs: "Hey anybody know how to cook one of these things?"
Why is learning about these crabs easier than whatever the hell I'm gonna be asked about at midterms
So cool how they team up to help each other. 😇

The view from the spy crab reminds me of the interior of that spaceship in the movie Nope when people were being folded into it
The larger the crab pile, the smaller its surface area relative to its volume. In other words, the number of crabs attacked by rays decreases as shown in the logarithmic graph. An amazing survival strategy.

I remember at about 9 or 10 years old. I had ate crab for the first time in my life and it was so delicious. But then shortly after I broke out in hives and discovered I was allergic to shellfish. I've never ate another crab, ever since then.

Money money money Ahhh!!!
Video so clever it is worth watching and contemplating. How did they achieve the spy spider crab? Camera lens is shown in a couple of frames but no clue if they somehow installed it in a living crab or did they build a drone crab? Either way the movement accuracy and picture quality are outstanding.
the crab are more unify than my country 😢
Very cool.
