- Top 5 Biggest Lobsters Ever Caught
A lobster grows to a weight of one pound after seven years in cold water and gains an additional pound every three years thereafter. The average weight for a lobster is 3-4 pounds. However there are some recorded lobsters that exceed the average. Here is the list of Top 5 Biggest Lobsters Ever Caught.
Music used: Morning Cruise by Jens Kiilstofte
In the early 1700s and 1800s, it was documented that the average lobster was between 18-25 lbs off the coast of Maine. “Anything smaller wasn’t worth keeping”. The average size is now down to 1-4 lbs.
In 1700s and 1800s lobsters are used for cheap food. Now it's a delicacy

Yes! The poor people of the area ate lobsters routinely. Bugs of the Sea!
I'm a spear fisherman/skin diver and what people don't realize is that the bigger in size of the lobster, crab or fish, the tougher the meat is to eat. Something that survived that long deserves to be left alone in my book.
Remember everybody, the smaller the lobster, the tastier it will be. The meat is more bitter and tough as they age.

Actually, that's a very good point.. all .. ahem... humor aside from the above reply.. In fact the person mentioned in the video who paid a kings ransom to eat Charlie the lobster probably wouldn't have appreciated it very much had they not "rescued" it.
OTOH, the meat on a 100 year old lobbie is in large part formed long before the oceans floors were lined with DDT, crude oil, radioactive debris and corexit.. Might actually be better. We'll never know, though...
They keep throwing them back. Without asking the lobster hiow it feels about it. Oh, wait.. the Lobster doesn't "feel" anything at all about it. Just keeps on going dum de dum "great. caught a fish.. eat. yum" dum dee dum.. Oh! I'm dead! OK dum de dum de dum... Shit I'm bored... dum de dum dum de...
smaller lobsters also have less mercury in them.
We actually don't know that they are immortals. Just speculation.
***** They are not immortal. their telomeres still degrade they just do it very slowly. Also, eventually they will stop molting. So they do die eventually. Jellyfish actually can be immortal. When they are injured they can revert back to a baby and grow up again.
MSG685 That's cool as fuck
The giant lobster pictured at the end with the guy standing in the water was about the size of the one we spotted (and videoed) several times in Cozumel. So, although this says they are the biggest and Guiness said the 44 lbs one was a world record, I know there were bigger ones out there. We didn't catch him, but saw it over and over again over the span of 10 years of diving.
My friend and I saw a 6 foot spiny lobster while night diving in Grand Cayman. No exaggeration; 6 feet long!
lol, as soon as they put larry back into the water someones probably gona find out where they dropped him off, find him, capture him, and then proceed to eat him without anyone knowing
william storey Or better yet... they are throwing their little "larry be free" celebration and right when they let him go, before he even touches the water, a great white shark pops up and swallows him whole.
They actually messed up shipping him back and he died in transit....
Yourtube Yes, what about it? Please supply details.
He lives in bikini bottom nowadays

In the 80s I caught an absolutely monster size lobster. It was off of Bass Rocks Gloucester, MA. I almost missed it. It was so big it didn't bother to try to get away. The body was so big I had to use two hands. The visibility was about 15 feet that day. I was beyond the rocks and into a sand bottom with rocks strewn here and there. I was swimming slowly when I seen one of the rocks move. The beast was too big for my bag not that I was going to take her anyways. She was an egger, can't take those. I wish I had a camera that day.
You guys got me wrong ! I love to eat lobster ! These are large and ancient lobster which need to be saved due to there age ! Yes dont stop eating lobster ! Just leave the large ones to help save the species !
hmm its like it was dr wn i was nt.... am 27 n it is 75 😊
M.
Very large lobsters are have less tender meat so are rarely eaten and there is already a size requirement for taking lobsters allowing the young to fully mature. Something you have obviously not done yet.
Lobsters aren't huge because they are some sort of super lobster, they can technically live forever and continuously grow, so these lobsters just never found themselves on the menu until a person found them
right
Larry the lobster died from his saviors' improper packing

Back in the early 90's i worked as a truck driver for a wholesale seafood distributor. I delivered a 40 pound lobster to a restaurant in Manhattan who's owner paid $9000 for it to put it in his gigantic aquarium in the middle of his 5 star restaurant. It was a little over 3 feet long. I had to go all the way up to Rode Island to pick it up. Would be a sin to eat that thing. I was happy it got to live in a beautiful aquarium. I wonder if it's still there
It also wouldn't have tasted good, because the taste worsens with age
no
Abida Babia
I like your style, some.are too rare to be called lunch. Imagine the list of things that lobster overcame, to get to such a size. The odds are so low.
Abida Babida so you delivered the largest lobster on record because just a touch over 40lb is the biggest lobster ever recorded oh and btw it was over 4 feet long
That was really nobel and shows the integrity of the fisherman...you go boi
Decent. Thanks heaps. :)
I wish it was common practice to let record catches live. They're that big for a reason and it's not for a super predator to barely feed itself. I love lobster and a lot of different meat, but eating recorded sized animals is just leaving behind the skinny ones to breed.
Kevin C
Me to it is so sad.
Great comment. I agree; if we let them live then there would be more of then in the future.
Kevin C it depends on what and how big the catch is, if it's in a way that it would be beneficial to science and things like that then it should be kept! But if not then it is good to release it.
Back Woods Angling Keeping the first any kind is ridiculously dumb. Especially with the rate most creatures are acclimatizing, catching and keeping the first of any species is reckless and thoughtless.
I love how they keep using the word Monster. The only Monsters that have ever been on this planet are us.
I love Lobsters, not to eat, I like dinning on mussels, and king crab. These critters are beautiful!
I am so into stuff like this it truly amazes me.
I always come here back because of the music. Its a masterpiece
thank you very much
When I was a kid, Our family visited an aquarium in either Boston Mass. or Portland Maine and they had a display of undersea coastal waters. In the display there were plaster replicas of lobsters which were estimated in size and weights by experts. These "lobsters" were theoretically constructed on the basis of very limited fishing and few natural enemies and the display represented the sea floor over 500 years ago. The size of these lobsters were that of small compact automobiles and weights were estimated to be several hundred Lbs.
Claude Maassen well i have heard that lobsters are immortal and can only die when they are killed otherwise they just grow until theres not enough room to hide.
Same goes for a lot of marine life. Tuna for example can grow up to 910 kg, if they wouldn't be killed on this big scale right now. *Normal* today means only 225 kg.
Stop eating fish, if you think that's sad.
Before commercial fishing was a truly widespread, lobsters were routinely found weighing 20-30 pounds. Out of all sea life, lobsters are observed to rank within the top in terms of lifespan, believed to be able to live up to 120 years of age.
thanks for adding the name of the track
Lobster, the humble janitors of the sea.
i love lobsters. I am the priest in the lobsterology church, i pray 51.5 times per day, and my friend mushroom head weighs exacty 51.5 pounds because he loves to worship the lobers. I am also a part of the LLA and the UMA, aka the Lobster Lovers Association and the United Mushroom Association, which i am also a preist in. My mommy married a lobster man, thereby proving that lobsters are the superior species because they can make my mommy happier than any human could. Lobsters are my life and I have a girlfriend lobster that lives in a tank in my room names tyrone. She attends Lobster Academy, and is currently earning a 51.5 GPA, and is also the best in her class. She has a bright future ahead, because she has a phd so technically she is Dr, Tyrone, anyway, she will become a heart surgeon for humans because she has very stable hands and doesnt need scissors

3:55 OK, this is ludicrous. Nova Scotia isn't a fucking "island in Canada". Who the hell would even think to write such a thing? All you have to do is spend 30 damn seconds to look it up! What the hell?
Nova Scotia is connected to the mainland by a thin point and is surrounded by water on three sides, so I can see how someone would make that mistake lol. There are also several islands within the province, like Cape Breton Island, which makes up 18.7% of the total land of Nova Scotia.
*****
The "thin point" is about 23 km wide. It's not exactly a narrow causeway. Nah, I think they just called it in. Oh well, happens a lot.
Doesn't excuse the ignorance...if you don't know what you're talking about...
A great time to remind everyone of the word "peninsula!"
Sketchy
As in "this episode brought to you by..."?
When I was 12 or 13 me and my dad where on a father son trip to the coast, 2nd day and we stopped at a little seafood restaurant after a long day of fishing (still hadn't caught even a perch). I looked at the tank like any normal kid my age would and sitting above the other lobsters was in the tank.... a 16 lbs lobster!!! My eyes lit up and I wanted it. I was still young and dumb so i didn't realize how much something like that cost i soon found out when the tab came in 160$!!! For my plate alone my dad actually bought it for me and I dug in literally the whole little restaurant saw and where watchin and taking photos of them bringing out this monster lobster. I had it for dinner in the place there, then took it to the hotel room had it for my midnight snack, put it in the fridge got up had it with my dad for breakfast, put it back in the fridge, Then finally I finished it that evening again for my midnight snack. Great memories this video brought up!
I'm from Central Maine, you should certainly be a video on the oddest lobsters because this is nothing compared to some of the odd ones!
dont forget that larry died.
yup. good intentions are not enough.
Richard Haw a lobster that old wouldn't even tast good ..
+Jean Gerald Muyuela Well, thing with water creatures is that the older they get, the more metals they soak up into their bodies. Especially predatory water creatures build up massive amounts of heavy metals like lead, so they won't taste very good, and might actually be mildly poisonous.
yeah. probably too strong and tough
dont forget mercury
Considering that fact that only 6% of the worlds ocean has been explored makes you wonder what’s actually the biggest animal in the sea.
2 pounds of butter and 1 head of garlic and one cup of white wine. Ready bring it.
This thumbnail better not be clickbait
Fun fact if a guy were holding a spiny lobster that size in the thumbnail it could easily sever his arms with one jet of its tail.
Thanks
No problem
no way could i bring myself to eat one and how people do beats me
We sacrifice ourselves just save the rest of humanity from those ugly Invaders of the deep. We eat them because we're just trying to protect and serve
And that's how Larry the lobster died from Sponge Bob
ACTUALLY THE BIGGER THE LOBSTER,THE LESS SWEET THE MEAT.
released then ends up being someone's dinner the next day lol
Yep and I beat him like Baby Fur-Seal
I like how you had the gall to put your clickbait in the "thanks for watching" category. >_>
NOTE; For many years there was a very large Lobster on display in the Halifax airport.
It was probably the one mentioned in this video.
The lobster was in a glass case, and it was just the shell of course, it wasn't alive.
On a side note;
The larger a lobster grows, the tougher the meat gets, and therefore it does not taste as good.
So trying to eat a super large lobster would probably not be a great tasting meal.
Best to let them go, and just eat the smaller ones of about 1lb.
Really Amazing
Somebody doesn't know their standard
measurements from their metric ones
i love lobsters.
I hate misleading thumbnails.
cihan depe Me too I wont click on another one of their vids again ever
If you believed that thumbnail....you're kinda dumb...
jeremy coffie is
i love big lobster too
Wow very great video😲😍👍
thanks for sharing
A huge pot with a tub of butter would have been established
Nova Scotia is a Peninsula not an Island.
glad somebody caught that.
Yea really though. Give yer head a shake eh
Born and raised in NS...it is not an island!
You knew that anyway and no one cares. Just keep catching Monster Lobsters
@@DAL1989 the same here, the South Shore.
Wow.. Nice catch..
Homer: [eating, crying] Oh, man, that’s good. [sob] Pass the butter.
Bart: Are you gonna eat that all by yourself?
Homer: Uh-huh. Pinchy would’ve wanted it this way. My dear, sweet Pinchy. [takes a bite] No more pain where you are now, boy. [rips him in half and sucks out the meat inside]
Oh, God, that’s tasty! I wish Pinchy were here to enjoy this. [takes more bites] Oh, Pinchy …
ok, it's good.... but I'm sad for Larry who celebrated his 100th birthday on a restaurant plate! :'l
Hawaii ASMR Nature Relaxation he was released
🤢🤢😡😡😡
Hawaii ASMR Nature Relaxation make love
Are you dense? It clearly states an activist group bought him for an aquarium
@@arlosteiner8382 bought him for an aquarium to be released
am i the only one scared shitless of lobsters.
GOD BOSS yes
They are fucking terrifying
when i see them, all i think about is how good they taste, and i want one right now! ;)
Pussy
I would be so happy if someone put lobsters in my bed.
Lobsters in excess of 40 pounds were routinely caught in the waters off the New England coast in Colonial times. Over fishing in the ensuring 400 years have reduced the number of extra large breeder lobsters and threatened the viability of the species.
Imagine how heavy he felt coming outta the water
I wish pinchy were here to enjoy this
Not many people will get this.
Michael Linkovski does that have something to do wit the trailer park boys
Simpsoms
@@charlestorruella6140 the only reason I’m responding to this 6 years later is because my comment got a love react.
It’s from the simpsons, Homer bought a tiny lobster to fatten it up and eat it but ended up keeping him. He ended up eating him after he gave the lobster a bath and accidentally cooked him
1.28 meters is not 33 inches. 1 meter = 39.4 inches. Therefore the last lobster is 50.394 inches long.
Hatter they need to remove the () from 33 inches because hey we're talking about how long it was from the nose to the part of the tail what a fucking idiot the person is who created this video
Alex move on bud, go smoke a joint or something
Awesome !!!!!
Big lobsters with ruberbands on thier claws are kinda funny. You know they think "take off these rubberbands and fight me like a man bitch!"
Huge and old crustaceans don't always taste nice...
That’s because you do not know how to cook them!
Darche 61 but when they do it's with dosequis.
Steve 10 pounder. Really nice
Funny how they used to be served to prisoners
I had to read it carefully... It did not spell Caucasian. Oops
I live in Maine and I remember that one 27 pound lobster when they found it. That wasn’t too long ago. We have had blue lobsters caught,albino lobsters and even that half and half one they shown with the 27 pounder. I thought they kept it at the aquarium but I guess not?.
The Maine State Aquarium is not "based in Costa Rica," as this video says at 01:10. The Maine State Aquarium is in the town of Boothbay Harbor in Maine. In the United States. Not in Costa Rica. WTF??
When I go diving for lobster I always leave the really big ones alone. I have a quiet respect for a creature that is able to survive the vastness of the ocean and flourish to old age.
and you kill the young ones, great !
Correct title - top 5 hungriest people ever seen(who were so hungry that they caught biggest lobsters)
Lobster is great, however much other seafood can taste just as good or better with proper preparation. Watch our Chefs videos.
whats the song name at the beginning ?
I live in a fishing village and often receive live lobsters from a fisherman who lives on my street. I release at least 3-4 back into the ocean every year. I have never eaten one nor do I intend to.
Mukbangers: so this is the menu?
R.i.p Larry the lobster.
Did they use kg in 1926 in USA ?
I'm sure these creatures don't stay alive as long as they do so some ignorant human can come and catch them... such lack of compassion.
and yet such amazing taste!! MMMMM!!
In old New England, northeast USA, prisoners were fed lobsters because they were so ridiculously plentiful and considered garbage food.
For the people that are spouting about "big lobster genes" and what a shame it is that all the other lobsters are going to be small due to catching all the large ones.. Got news for ya, they grow as they age, so these are more than likely just old lobster.
This made me cringe! Could we please let the animals live in peace?! the lobster was 100yrs and was still sold on a dinner plate????
Axel Durman If you where 100 years old, wouldn't you want to die either? Lmao
@@salimhadada no cause thats why I wanted to live towards 100. Duh
It's like fucking 100 years old lady lol
To heck with releasing them . Get in my belly !!!
Wow. I never realized
If I came across a lobster this size it would be dinner before I let anyone know ha ha ha
Apparently small ones are tastier; I'd like to test that theory for myself though :-)
Roli Rivelin
thats what (i wish) she said
Being someone who has caught in cooked lobsters for 30 years I can tell you that is absolutely false! People who say that I do not know how to cook lobsters!
That statement is quite accurate, larger lobsters tend to be tough, and not as good to eat.
Smaller lobsters are called "canners" and are very tasty.
Lobsters around 1lb are called "markets" and that is generally the size most people eat.
Anything larger than that is not as desirable.
Beat It Like A Baby Fur-Seal.
wow did you make the thumbnail for the video?
The Spitfire Gamer photoshop?
i know it was photoshopped is just a click bait thumbnail and that lobster does not get anywhere near that size also the lighting is kinda off on the lobster.
Each claw would be like eating a big steak. Sounds awesome.
Amazing
that would've been real good eating with 2pounds of butter and garlic.
When the biologist said it's best to release it rather than keep it in captivity, they're really saying "well, we ate it without paying a cent to the fisherman, then told everyone it's in the ocean and who's any wiser.
im glad i wasnt the only one thinking that lol
jesset u ain't liein
i look at how heavy it is and think "get me melted butter and melted garlic butter cuz that looks tasty. especially the 51 pounder
U'm the reason the get so big ussually isn't genetics it's just the fact that they lived for so long
On the thumbnail there is a huge lobster probably 5 foot and the guy is not even wet he might be without t-shirt but he is not wet!!?!?!
Look at the title of the vid what does it say "biggest lobsters ever caight"
how the hell did he catch it without being wet?!?! he is Jesus for doing that jeez
Edit.Can I get 1.k likes I got a hard time writing this😃😃😃😓😓😓😓😓
The Mirelurks are real AF
I though, when it said 17 lb lobster at the start it would be my Biology teachers video, he donated it to the national marine aquarium 4 free
"YAY! That Larry isn't here anymore! He was always eating my food!"
"Yeah he took my favourite cave to sleep in too"
"He wwas a wanker. Always bullying everyone"
"Glad he's gone"
...
"Aw fuck man!!!"
denbanjoDJ lo
You have to learn the difference first
The lobster has no clamps
nice job
Hooray for Larry!
lets go giant LOBSTER HUNTING BOYS!! the big 1 is still in the sea the HUNT is on!
Troy Amhaz Yeah!!
SW21 Sharky
Very large lobsters and prawns also, can be tough and too dry to eat, also hard to digest. Better let them back into the sea. I happened to cook king size prawns 0.5- 1.0 kg and it was not as good. Same lobsters exceeding 2-3 kg are also hard.
KN
I shared a sixteen pound lobster. It was awesome.
You never broil bake grill or bbg the large ones, boil them with salt.
Andros Charalambous Pyliotis I guess it's the same concept like those oversized fruits that don't taste as good as the tiny juicy ones
Andros Charalambous Pyliotis you do know a kilo or kg is only 2.23 pounds right
THAT'S A HUGE LOBSTER !
LOBSTERS CANT DIE
Smell larrys armpit.he worked out😂😂😂😂😂
Why the hell do they always save the big lobsters. Guess small lobsters don't matter.
Banks Nicholson that's cause the smaller ones taste better, so people eat the smaller ones, and leave bigger and older lobsters to make babies, it's a pretty balanced system actually
Why the hell do you have and agar.io skin as your profile?
When larry walking in the public street
I got a Red lobster advertisement
release them then they get caught again and ate lel
"Nova Scotia (an island in Canada)" It's a peninsula, not an island. P.E.I and Newfoundland are islands.
Catch a small fish you release it.
Catch a big lobster you release it.
so thats why the lobster from spongebob cartoon is called larry
If you find a lobster . Please let it GO ! They have a family as well !!! Please save our species ! Wow we eat them ?
Yeah who gives a crap. Boil them alive hahaha
You have obviously never tasted lobster!!
sure I would let them go............ INTO A BOILING POT THEN MY STOMACH!!!
i prefer humans
Donald Woods Families? So families of sea lice because they are independent crustaceans wondering across the bottom looking for food, I'm from Maine! Not to mention that they lay their eggs in and abandon and their young!
Something thats 40in long and weighing 27lbs had to be black, didn't it...
Leave.
😂😂😂😂
Lololololol
You made my day.
Kryptos4u OK, I've read some pretty crazy stuff in this comment list but this tops the cake. Where the hell is your brain right now? Obviously in the gutters. Like... WTF..
Makes me hungry for lobster and to try other sea fish. Love to see a Japanese fish market.
That 51.5 pound lobster weighs nearly a pound more than my little sister XD
Crab is so much better
iToxic Era oh, your funny
crab is way better tasting
nope nope nope nope nope nope
Fair, but being a mainer I just have to go with lobster...
Back Woods Angling i like lobster buuuut snow crab is my bitch
Why kill those lobsters 🙄🙄🙄seriously I need to be vegetarian
I had one at 12 3/4 lbs while diving off Littlehampton (uk) in the 70s
how do you get 33"= 1.28 meter?
1m = a little less than 40 in.
