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.
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?!
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.
@@ASurfgirl I'd keep those molts forever, they really are fascinating creatures. The name reminds me of ARK survival evolved, sounds nice. Have you had any other pets?
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.
They could probably make a fortune selling these things...A lot of people would love to have the remote control & play with 1 of these.I'm sure more than a few kids would like to use 1 for a prank on the beach somewhere🤭.
@@giganerd6780 oh my.. i didnt notice its a robot!! (Small screen and watching at night is my excuse 😊). Thanks for pointing that out, I clearly noticed it after watching again :).
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.
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.

Can you hear the stories they will tell about that crazy crab who battled the Ray? Legendary🤯
All the spy 🦀 needs is a little superhero cape🤭.

That robot crab is a god among mortals, they saw how it distracted danger.
the robot crab is not a god

Soft shell just means they are molting as well
@@caseymoore4759😢
Those with the greatest power... protect those without.
Crabs: Hey, I saw that guy helped the little one before. This is our turn to help him, whoever he is!
Ray be like: "I hate it when they bunch up like that."
Omg I watched this whole video & only realized at the end that the protector crab was a robot 😭😭
Me too...*)))
I didn’t even realize it til I saw this comment 😅 I was like “woah, how’d they get that kind of photo age?” 😂🤦♀️
Same dude... I kept wondering why the hell they called it spy crab...😅
I can also eat 50 crabs a day, but you wouldn't want to share the same swimming pool with me afterwards

Why is learning about these crabs easier than whatever the hell I'm gonna be asked about at midterms
Imagine it’s your first day when you get that hard shell and you’re out there to face Sharkie thing.
Crabs, together, strong. 💪💪

Evolved to suck the meat out of your skin. Well. Crabs meat out of their skin. Nobody likes bread crust anyway.
I'm sure you don’t wanna find out 😅
BBC: "A brief monument to teamwork."
Crabs: "Hey anybody know how to cook one of these things?"
Kudos to the camera guy who captured this detailed video 🔥
😅I just wonder how many times they got pinched by that army of 🦀 s.

Or the camera crab 🦀 😂
So cool how they team up to help each other. 😇

i think this is wonderous....working together to thwart the predator..just amazing...
I love this series its so unique and impressive. I hope this nature documentary clears up at the awards.🎉
Sons watching crabs again
It would be nice if they cleaned up for sure.

yeah its about abou the lagirithmic graph! i hope the crabs thank it.
So smart analysis
0:12 wow are those robot spider crabs?
0:28 look at its arms it has nails on it so it is a robot!
Must be a cool job to pilot robot crabs on the ocean floor, protect the horde and fight manta rays.
Team work makes the dream work!
Oh, I just love the storytelling on this one. *chef's kiss*
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
Nature is incredible!
I want a robot crab, looks so fun

1:09
What is that robot doing? xD
DEPRESSING DONT WATCH
Cope
Wtf
he cant eat tasmanian giant crab
I'm kinda in the mood for crab legs now 😂🦀
1:06 do you feel it now mr krabs
Such beauty and intelligence,an amazing clip!
I never knew crabs make this sounds😮
You mean "crunch"?

me at joes crab shack 4 beers in: "amateur."
crabs are literally just hte best thing to ever exist
Honey badgers of the sea. I cried. I laughed.
Stingrays And Crabs Are Animals That Are Found In The Sea 🌊
Omg I’m so proud of them for helping the spy crab
Holy wow, that is, no this is all so flippin' amazing to see! I had no idea crabs were like this, it's so neat!
I didn't know, that sting ray is such a murderous creature.
Not a manta, its a stingray..
@@daviddeckers corrected, thanks :)
They have their come uppance, hammerheads love to eat rays.
Every creature is a murderous creature, hell I'd say humans are the most murderous if you look at it that way.
Wow, that was fascinating!
Thanks for sharing!
I can almost hear the crabs yelling, "Shell-wall!"
how cute real crabs protecting a robot❤😂
this video is so nice, I watched it several times❤
Wow why did the death ray help the spy crab back on its feet, if we were to not take that as just a narrative thats a fun way to look at what happened
wait?... 50 a day?
How hungry are you? 50 crabs a day guy
Stunning footage would love to know more about these spiny spider crabs
Do crabs think fish are flying
i love seeing them work together. i used to be into clams, and then into mussels, but now im so into crabs, their s tier lol
Jordan peele took one look of this video and immediately got an idea for a movie
" i never really was on your side"
That spy crab went down in crab folklore are the most badass crab that ever walked the seabed.
That's is different crubs. I love that.
David Tennant?
I keep trying to search who is the Scotsman doing this narration. It doesn't come up. For a second, I thought Alan Cummings, but you might be right
You were right!
Funny that they don't list it in credits, but it can be found under the actor's wiki page
His real accent. His name is a stage name, his real name is a Scots surname, look up his biography. ♥️
Ironic seeing this after hearing the phrase “crab mentality” all my life.
Spy spider crab among us.
Time for a crab rave
What a touching scene
50 crabs a day. Now, I want to eat some sting ray.
It’s like Nope. But with crabs
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.
Good thing you’re not a stingray
crabs got UFOed
never would have thought i'd have something in common with rays.
He should've visited Bikini Bottom & said "Hello" to his brother that runs the Krusty Krab🤭.
Thanks for sharing
Good work
WHOs voice is this? David Tennant?
Yep.
Wonder where this was filmed?
IT'S CALLED A KING CRAB NOW!!
I didn’t realize sting rays were such terrifying monsters
Is that david tennant narrating

Omg! The Sting Ray can’t have his MUKBANGS TONIGHT 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Interesting TY!
Great video. It does look like a all you can eat Buffet to a Ray.
THIS WAS FREAK'N AMAZING!!!
I've never seen a stingray eat before, I now wish to unsee it.
All I wanted to do was show my 18mo what a crab was and this was the first one😂well he also got a lesson in the circle of life
Guess what just fell onto our dinner plate, John? Scorpion and frog. 😋
I surprised Dreamworld, Pixar or Disney not making a similar concept movie out of this
New fear unlocked
David Tennant 😍😁
This just blows my mind!! WOW!!
That's a lot of crabs... Is spider crab yummy?
It’s crazy how we can get this footage
서로를 위하는 마음… 그걸 지켜보는 제가 더 뿌듯해요😊
Still more united than humans
Crab vs. Shrimp 😮😮😮
Awesome 👌
👀Interested programme 👍Thank you.🌻
1:09 were they making the crab wave to the camera? lol
NOO MR.KRAB
A living citadel? I think you mean citashell!
What a bizarre existence and crabs have it pretty weird as well.
Incredible i never seen so many crabs 🦀
