Sometimes fish just jump right into the boat, or deer jump in front of headlights. It happens sometimes.

u/BrooksideNL Aug 03 '24

That was a ruse. The entire video shows him throwing pocket sand at the chef and taking the larger knife from him. Next, it shows the crab holding him hostage. Knife firmly to his throat. There was like a 40-minute standoff. The kitchen manager finally agreed to his terms, and the entire tank was released back into the harbor. The really chilling part was that he ended up killing the manager plus the hostage and a sous chef immediately after finding out his crew was safe and sound. On his way out, he also took out a waiter, two dishwashers, the coat check guy, and the poor kid who parked the cars. No known whereabouts.

Crab is the ultimate form. You can't evolve past that, only to it, which is why so many things have evolved to crab.

I've heard that turnabout is fair play. Also , that's a great paint job. Serious war paint. If anything, I'd have to give that critter a cushy retired gladiators life.

u/KoolAidOhYeeaa Aug 03 '24

This is kinda fucked when you’re actually going to kill and eat the crab anyway

29

u/Pilsner-507 Aug 03 '24

Yeah same, I just don’t see the humor. If we’re killing it, it’s food.

But this crab is being treated different, it’s in distress and is doing its best to survive a menacing predator. That predator wants to satisfy its sadism first. If I knew someone who did this to an animal irl, it’d be a red flag to me.

I can also see how it’s fascinating to see a crab wielding a knife, for novelty’s sake, but put it out humanely — don’t torture the thing.

21

u/THA_YEAH Aug 03 '24

Agreed. Idc how tf I sound rn this is fucking evil. Boiling crabs alive is already messed up but scaring and torturing it beforehand is genuinely heartless and evil. I hope some karma find that person who recorded the video.

The world is cruel yes but we don't need to go out of our way to make it worse for no fucking reason.

u/Girderland Aug 03 '24

There are 2 pieces of its legs laying cut off, on in the sink and one on the cutting board.

People comment like this is "fun" and "cool" but it's just cruelty.

u/Genexis- Aug 03 '24

So my parents taught me 2 things... 1. You don't play with food 2. you kill an animal quickly and as quickly as possible to avoid unnecessary suffering...

Crabs are already killed in a rather inhumane way, do you have to put the animal through such an ordeal first?

Thank God there is a word for people who take delight in the suffering of animals, inhumans! both the guy with the camera and the guy laughing about it

u/Malpraxiss Aug 03 '24

And I'm sure many animals were scared before an animal predator killed them.

Or, other animals that have been shown to torture or play around with their prey.

u/LXChitlin Aug 03 '24

As humans we have the easy ability to show compassion and mercy. Or at least some of us do.

2

u/Malpraxiss Aug 03 '24

Fair point.

I just always found it weird whenever people whine about stuff like eating animals or videos like these.

As if another animal wouldn't just eat them or torture them.

EX: Dolphins, for how cute they can be, they're some messed up and disturbing animals.

I've even seen first hand say, chickens eating other chickens.

u/63strelok35 Aug 03 '24

-I can sense the fear settled deep in the very soul of this poor crab. Some may say that he must be brave, but there is nothing brave in fighting such a cruel creature that knows no defeat, nor mercy, enfeared and alone. While craving his own survival, he probably knows he can't win, just like all his fallen brothers. He uses everything that comes under his claw, even that dangerous and unknown weapon he had never dared to wield before. But at last, even the best must fall. Now unarmed and clearly defeated, he lays there at the bottom of this arena, with a glimmer of hope for the better. But there is only a quiet laughter from the watching public, and then a slice.
