- For most of the year they hide below ground but with the monsoon and rising humidity it's time to spawn as the red crabs begin to march. However they face many dangers in their way...

Crabchella is always lite.
3:34 One actually waves at the camera as he passes by.
AuomAk ,yeah
Hey mum, I’m on TV!
Wow
Great spot🔥💥👍
Like a football worldcup fan came to see final.....
1:38 "excuse me! Excuse me ! Excuseme!"
we always have one like this in cinema hall
Red crabs literally embody 'They can't kill all of us!'
Just like cicadas
3:34
crab be like: "mom, look, i'm on tv!"
Lol nice!
Hahaha came here to comment the same
Cuteeee😍🤣
fudge you beat me to it
😅😅😅😅😅😅
Look at all those chickens.
@maksim lukjan r/whooosh
duh. Dis was only a joke dumb
Chickens? I thought they're snakes
maksim lukjan it’s a joke
Eric Fontanilla Wtf those are lobsters
3:34 cutest crab greet you'll ever see
The Christmas island crab had 2 predators that kept they're numbers in check.
The Predators were the Bulldog Rat
And Maclear's Rat.
Both of which were endemic only to Christmas island and existed nowhere else on the earth.
In 1887 a ship landed on the island to check on the possibility of starting a business by extracting rubber from the trees on the island, but the ship contained Black Rats which carried diseases that the 2 island rat species weren't prepared for and had zero immunity to.
By 1902, Both the Bulldog Rat & Maclear's Rat were extinct.
With them out of the ecosystem, the crab population exploded and never stopped growing.
That's why there's so many crabs there on the island.

What about the yellow crazy ants?
@@TuriGamer
Like it was nothing.
- The Teacher
Wow. Thank you 👍
yeah I heard the opposite in areas with yellow crazy ants.
What happened of those black, foreign rats?
3:34 "Oh! Hai"
Lol
TheSilentCosmonaut I came down to comments to point this out! lol
TheSilentCosmonaut EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING?
TheSilentCosmonaut lol
I was thinking the same.
lol to the one that came to the camera and said hi. haha
I'm about to comment that hahah
He said bye have a good time!😂
Xxx
Lol
Which one?? Time stamp?
Me needs to do schoolwork
TH-cam: wanna see some crabs?
Everyone say hi to Mr. Krabs at 3:34!
Lol why
ADORABLE 😍🥰
3:34 “Mom! Look! I’m on tv!!”
1:13 That crab was like: don,t touch me bish
1:10 That face of the Bird HAHAHAHAHA
3:35 Hi Mr. Krabbs😍
Such a beautiful shade of red they are.
first time I saw coconut crabs hunting. Much faster strike than expected.
Yeah and not to mention a bit hard core when it crushed that little crab. I mean, yikes!
@@austinmajor3288 Coconut crabs, as their name implies, are strong enough to puncture coconuts with their claws. A crab's carapace would be of no defence against them.
I never thought the crab in that video would get so liked
Yea they are more aggressive than they look like that one time one crushed a birds wing and a swarm of them…well you can imagine the rest.
No literally you can make a good fighting forces of crabs. they have natural characteristics like-:
Normal crabs-: Infantry
Coconut crabs-: Armored division
Mantis crabs-: armored
reconnaissance and intelligence.
(They can make good spies because of there shell)
Spider crabs -; mechanised infantry ( only if we trained them to carry other small crabs!)
Lobsters-: Artillery
Mantis crab isnt crab, its shrimp.
Its name is mantis shrimp, so you could change their name.
Hermit crab: surprise attacker (won’t do much but can distract)
An army that can be defeated by being eaten or chunked into the ocean.
Just crustacean fighting gaem where you can pick what crustacean you wanna be there is even bosses like octopus
3:34 CRAB: why HELLO there 👋 📀3📀💗
I am fascinated by the red crabs marching across Christmas Island near Australia. Also, it is surprising how many species of crabs I have seen from watching nature documentaries.
So was that crab stabbing noise added in, or did they have a mic close by and that's what it really sounded like.
Added in. Pretty sure their cameras pick up almost no usable sound and a lot of the audio is careful foley work and sound design, minus specific animal calls and things like that.
@@PrismTheKid and
Is this how the crab rave starts?
I dunno but I feel hungry watching them 😂
😁😁
They arent edible.
So the Red Army Rises with 45 million.
Impressive
quantity over quality
Germans: **angry incoherent screaming**
@@sem3479 and that is why I hate collectivism
Kim Jung who?
2:35 the look of terror on the face! 😓
I had the honour of meeting an entire parade of red crabs on the long stretch of sand at the edge of Chilika Lake. The narrow stretch of land that divided the lake and the ocean, was infested with red-crab population. I was walking on the shore sipping coconut water, as a red crab walked passed me. I found it hell'a cute, so I followed it. It went inside a burrow almost immideately. A minute later it came out to peep, whether I was still there or gone. I looked ahead, and holy moly, there were God knows how many (but I am guessing a close to million) crabs looking at me, in perfect lines of three, like the ones in a marching parade, staring back at me. They were looking at me curiously, peeking out of their tiny holes. It was up till the horizon, as far as my eyes could see.
I throttled one step on the ground, with force, likely to scare them off. It worked. They went back in- all together. A minute later, they slowly come out again. I walk towards them and they quickly hide in their hidey holes within a blink of an eye. It was a wierd game that I was enjoying all by myself. Best summer ever. I was barely 15 at that time!

The honor of meeting...? WOW!
That's absolutely incredible :). Thanks for sharing your story!
I was hoping the would carry you around like a sports hero hitting a game winning goal
@@mattf9076and everybody clapped
2:11 A Giant Enemy Crab appears
I can't believe that crab that eats other crabs🙄
Coconut crab
Other crab : why I heard boss music ??
3:34 Look mom! I'm in a TV show
they're actually marching towards stalincrab
I expected for there to be crab rave as background music
The only place you will see more crabs is on that high school cheerleader who is dating the entire football team.
45 million red crabs walk by
robber/coconut crab: well this is awkward.
*Zoidberg noises*
Ziodberg intensifies*
Ziodberg says hi

PoodleCorp albino maybe?
No it's a different kind of land crab. Different eyes. I think it's one of those with the huge claw

When this pandemic is over... I'm heading to Christmas Island so I can play "Crab Rave" at full volume on a bluetooth speaker...
Ooh my little red babies, oh how they walk sideways, so red and baby. I love them.
So many bright red crabs everywhere would a sight to behold. Such an amazing spectacle.
Wow, what a good time for them, with inland direction and distance.
So very good tickling the ground and tree with there crawling gifts. So ideal.
Amusing creatures.

How would you have any reason to dislike a video like this-
Because nobody is cooking them. They're predators are dead and the population is over 100 million.

Red crab numbers? OUR crab numbers.
National geography and discovery is the channel full of information. Loved it.
The rave... it is starting!
When I see the small one my brain said : " no it's have no meat inside"
And then giant comes and I think " oh my gosh, that would be so tasty"
I'm sorry but when I see this kind videos I can't take the knowledge, I can't help think about food 🤣🤣
The remind me of drunk people slowly leaving the pub going home 🤣 🦀
3:35 be like:"Hello guys,welcome to our tribe, let's do a tour"
My heart: don't type it
My brain: don't but... I am curious
Okay, can we eat them? I mean look at the color and that coconut crab looks delicious, too
Same thoughts😂
Crabs: _exist_
Entire comment sections: Yummy!
Please can y'all stop viewing these crustaceans as mere food? They're fascinating creatures too.
Agreed. I stopped eating crab meat because I find them too fascinating and endearing, and I always feel horrible for them when I see them and lobsters in live tanks at grocery stores.
