MELBOURNE, June 16 (UPI) — A scuba diver off the coast of Melbourne, Australia, captured video of a stunning sight: hundreds of thousands of giant spider crabs.
Sheree Marris, an Australian aquatic scientist, captured video of the crabs, which feature nearly 30-inch legs attached to their 6-inch-wide bodies, gathering on the floor of Port Phillip Bay.
Marris said the spectacle was the largest gathering of crabs she had ever seen.
Oh, yummy!
But what a freaky sight. Who in their right mind would think, “Gee, they sure look delicious. I think I’ll eat those!”
Bring the butter and the Old Bay
I knew Hillary shouldn’t have been allowed into the water!
I had crabs like that once……the Philippines, on R&R,….1971.
You know the old saying then from graffiti back in the day, Piss quick, crabs swim upstream. Olongapo City in Subic (Pubic) Bay was the armpit of the Universe.
Spiders.
The ocean bottom is covered with giant migrating spiders.
You guys can eat all you want.

When I was a kid I used to fish off the Redondo Beach pier. There were Perch, smelt and the occasional halibut.
One day there was a huge spider crab under the bench, all tangled up in a ball of monofilament somebody had left there.
I didn’t notice it until I reached down to retrieve some tackle from the tangle.
I must say it gave me quite a start!
