i guess curiousity kills crabs too - LOL

Hmmm... it's asking for a plugin that I don't recognise. Seems fishy to me.

Funny video.. the saw didnt kill the crap, it was sucked into a 3mm slit on the pipe.. ouchies

This is a video taken in 6000 feet of water. An undersea robot is sawing a 3mm wide slit (1/10th of an inch ... remember that width) in a pipeline. The pressure inside the pipeline is 0 psig, while the pressure outside is 2700 psi, or 1.3 tons per square inch. Then a crab comes along....

I had to watch it 4 times... the way the pressure folded the crab into the slit... awesome...

It's amazing to see.

that's HORRIBLE!! (waste of a good meal in my neck of the woods... LOL!)

wouldn't the vibrations from the saw have 'scared' the little critter off? or was it really that thick skulled... i mean... 'shelled'?

never let a good crab go to waste...

That was hilarious!!!!! Had to show my momma that. Wow, poor crab, but I am allergic to them so good riddance.

Kinda reminds me of when I was about 8 years old and I stuck the vaccuum cleaner nozzle against my ear to see if you can hear the motor inside.

A chunk of brain missing later, I found out that no...you can't.

It must have been just the part that allows you to trust the government...the rest of your brain seems intact
