I was diving Waimea Bay on the North Shore of Oahu. I came across a depression in the sand and went down to investigate it. I found a crab (that goes by many names and is usually found around the shallow waters of the mangroves). I started filming with my GoPro: • Swimming Crab in its Hole and finished recording it (displaying the typical defensive posture...time to move on). All of a sudden, the crab swam straight up about 20 feet and then started swimming away. It caught me by surprise and started recording again while trying to catch up to it. I have never seen a crab do that. Enjoy... • A swimming Swimming Crab - เพลง

You're right 😂
Hands and arms outstretched: “why you follow me bro”
Lol 😂🤣
I wonder what he was thinking about in his little crab brain.
"I'm a water UFO!"
"All systems nominal. Landing gear extending. Retracting rotors. We have landing."

Perfect comment.

Don’t forget this is the literal ocean equivalent of a flying spider

I thought of Peter Griffin saying “Ta-Da~”when I read that and it made me laugh way too fucking hard.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Gotta love this little guy. And as soon as he's back on the sand he's got the claws out defending against the camera diver...." Watch it buddy!"
Not being able to change into battle mode while swimming is a vulnerability though, enemy crabs could take him out with a crabby RPG.
"watch it buddy" is the most crab thing. I feel they'd actually have that attitude.
I'm probably forgetting something from finding Nemo or some sea movie

Not at all. Our species has an insane packing bonding ability. Its why something as crazy as pet rocks are possible. You can test it out for yourself. Grab a toothpick give it a name and then talk to it for 1 minute like its a person. Then break it and see how you feel. We are masters of pack bonding.

They look very cute when they swim. I wish we had more on crustaceans species that are built for swimming.
He's not swimming, he's trying to get your attention because there's a shark behind you
I'll take the joke.
Wait.
INDEED! THERES A SHARK-
Lol
Moon Doggie your telling a joke right?
"dude. behind you. dude. dude. No, stop looking at me! DUDE!"
Oh a shark
Show me then i love shark
After living in Florida my entire life I guess I didn't realize just how many people were completely unaware that blue crabs could swim.
0 idea dawg
I thought they just sink
I’m from California and this is the first time I’ve seen or heard of a swimming crab. We have all sorts of crabs here, but I’ve never seen one swim.
I worked 2 years as a commercial crabber for Dungeness on the South Oregon coast, and wasn't aware of that either? 🤷
I live in Florida, but I still didn't know they could.
Wow, I never knew this ! Looks like flying in the water. Soooooo cool ^^♡
...mahalo nui loa!!
It looks like he's waving. So cuteee 👋👋
I always thought that crabs just walk along the ocean floor. This is mind blowing for me
they are supposed to just walk lmao
@@lucasvarelagutierrez2508 and yet they do more than just walk, evidently
@@JubioHDX good point, I don't remember why I commented that lol, it's literally a vid of a swimming crab 🦀
Only some species can swim...you can tell by the back 2 legs whether it's a swimming species or not...swimmers' 2 back legs are flat and rounded on the ends like paddles, scuttlers back 2 legs look like the rest of their legs...
Divine creation
This is the equivalent of a human flying with a propeller beanie.
I just let out the ugliest laugh at this hahaha ffs
more like something about us flying with our butt cheeks or so
Oh wow, that was so cool. Looked so peaceful. Ready to tear you up when those feet touched down. Was fun to watch. Awesome video
I like crab and I like wings....heeeer's...crab with wings! Excellent combo platter.
As soon he landed, I heard the Transformers sound in my head.
😂😂😂
I though I was the only one 😂
👍
Si optimom pride puking ina ouh-ahh-eehh-aahh
I’ve been living for 21 years without knowing that crab can swim ….
Edit :
Some people nowadays are scary, i just said a joke and they replied with sarcasm 😂 chill guys, i know crab is a sea creatures, i mean i never see a crab swimming before ok 👍🏻
some crabs has extra pair of limbs to swim some just creepy and big like coconut crab.
Blue Crabs' Latin name actually means "beautiful swimmers."
Not all crabs can swim. Only those with swimmers can.

Mr grabs can swimming, amazing video thank you for sharing!
I forgot until now that most big crabs have like feathered wings, i have never ever seen one swimming before, until now. Great bit of film footage
I can't tell if this guy's swimming forward, backward, or sideways
Yes, he is.
He's swimming downward
maybe backwards cuz he trying to run away from the cameraman
down... he is swimming (read: falling) downwards xd
But if he's swimming backwards with eyes front how does he/she/it know where its going? I know its eyes are on stalks but they're deepset under that carapace?
Anyway, how many crab species have legs adapted for swimming? Where found? And...... Most importantly....
How big do they grow? are they edible? Any freshwater varieties?
crab be like :
"get away from me you giant bastard"
Me *look around and behind* : Bastard who?
Great shot… It’s like a ship from crypton lol and the crab made sure the human was always on his sight 👍👍

I remember “playing” with these as a kid. I’d see how close I could get before it bolted off into the deeper water. I think I caught one once or twice!
This video is more hypnotizing than any existing swirling black and white screen in existence.
I'm on vacation and did a snorkeling excursion where I saw these guys! A few looked so soft 🥹 We're doing an awesome rock cove freestyle tomorrow because we saw a bunch of them scurrying around that area! Can't wait to finally feel how soft their velvet is ❤️🦀🦀 adorable
I got your soft velvet right here

@@rbudiman6460 seriously! Did you just call soupsnipe stupid for making a joke? It was a joke. Take a chill pill and try again in the morning to be a little less crabby and more human.
The blue crab is amazing, expecting for more content you record about swimming carbs
Actually im pretty sure thats a *mudcrab* (sorry if I'm wrong) but it looks like he's swimming in the sea which confuses me cuz I've only seen mudcrab in fresh water and mud.
I'm pretty sure they're swimming proteins
@@oeungtichheang2005 It looks like a velvet swimming crab, except it has white instead of black-tipped claws. Maybe it’s a grey swimming crab I’m not sure.

Wow ate quite sum of those, but have never seen them actually swimming before. Very fascinated! it almost look like rather mechanic then bionic I would say. Very cool~!
WOW. Growing up a spearfishman's on and childhood on a Pacific Island, I have NEVER seen crabs swim before. I would pull out those suckers when I start eating them, but now I'll have to take a closer look at them... absolutely intriguing.
This doesn't seem much faster than walking though, and a lot easier to get spotted by predators.
Some of them are pretty fast swimmers. But for others, swimming is just a way of getting onto higher places
They don’t do it all the time, it’s usually used as an escape mechanism or to get to higher places
@PogChamp it’s possible, but they definitely do swim that high if they feel the need to. Same with scallops. You wouldn’t think a shellfish like a scallop can swim, but they are surprisingly fast and hydrodynamic if they feel pressured to.
@@spiderdude2099 pressured hehe
But hey, extra mobility, tho!
Everyone gangsta until the crab starts flying
Wow, first time to see a crab swimming. Thsnks for sharing :)
The footage is so beautifully clear.

“A swimming Swimming crab”
*Hmm yes, the floor here’s made out of floor*
@Originz Fishing but crabs don’t usually swim, so it would just be swimming crab, plus when was the last time you heard anyone say “look a swimming swimming squid”
@@shadowdemon553 do you know anything about crabs?, not all crabs can swim. Some species of crabs such as Portunidae have flatten back legs for swimming, hence the swimming crab.
@@rbudiman6460 can you even read, I said “don’t usually swim” implying that not all crabs swim like this -_-
M&JTV?
@@shadowdemon553 then why did you specifically state you're facts on crabs that can't swim while we're discussing a swimming swimming crab.
For as many times I have seen a crab🦀 I have RARELY seen it swimming. What a T R E A T
This was really cool to see. Thanks for sharing!
This is the day I learned that crabs can swim. Thank you very much for educating me on this!
Majestic.
Also kind of like the ocean version of a saucer UFO, in regards to its shape and movement from below.

Or were the UFO s made after crab movements????😅

I’ve never seen, nor knew about how crabs can swim. I also thought about those extra “flipper” things they have, and what purpose they serve when eating them, but never knew they used them for swimming.
Let alone, appearing to be an underwater helicopter while swimming with those things XD
You would think that the use of flippers for a creature that lives underwater would be fairly obvious....
Awww it's like he's waving to us happily
This is therapy in its finest form.
I never thought in a million years a crab can do that.😮
Why? They have both a tail and two hid legs designed for swimming
@Alex Gibbs yes I'm aware that there are many crabs that aren't designed for swimming like the Japanese spider crab but this crab look kinda like a blue crab I'm sure it's similar nevertheless and there sold in grocery store so i don't know why it'll be surprising to see a that are similar or the same type crab swimming
Thats Evolution.
Flippers awwww 🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@isleling5191 because we've simply never seen it happen before, and i certainly have never been told umprompted "hey you know some crabs can swim?", we only ever usually see them walking so its reasonable to assume they decided to ditch the whole swimming idea. (also, their tail is in no way designed for swimming, its barely even visible let alone protuding enough to help in the act of swimming💀)
Came here because i saw this video on fb.. but the video was reverse and playback speed slightly sped up.. and it looks like the crab was pissed and chased after the diver... Hillarious😂
Looks like a velvet swimming crab,they are very beautiful creatures and incredibly fast and aggressive if meddled with on the shoreline.
He's off to work, to make some Crabby-Patties.
First time I'm seeing a crab swim. It's like seeing fish walk.
As a crab I can confirm we do this
This made me feel a completely new emotion
He's just flappin' his arms! flappin' his arms! flappin' his little froggie arms!
Mr Krabby can swim better than me! 😂😍
How did he go up so high in the water in the first place? Anyway he is so adorable.

More like sinking, they have gills
I can see a crab-themed superhero with a aquatic vehicle designed like this crab
The crab is sooooo cute!
Just give that crab a hug that's all he/she wants and needs 😄
he's using his mouth as a engine and he clearly got his paddle to stare his direction.
Swimming is a generous description.
It looks adorable
I had absolutely no idea crabs could swim. Not only that, I never even considered that they could swim, lol, which is the sad part :) It had never even crossed my mind, lol.
So cutee
Mahalo nui loa!!
First time I've seen a crab swimming in my life! And I liked the part were it was swimming and then landed on the sea floor like a rocket landing on the moon
Looks like an underwater drone
Basically it's crab rave but extra.
Great shot!
This is such an awesome short video.
Glad you enjoyed it...mahalo nui loa!!

So cute swimming crab

Absolutely adored this video! Thank you so very much to whomever videotaped this chap! I’ve never heard of a swimming crab, I don’t think?! His appendages or whatever they’re called in the back are incredible! To help him swim! See, there Hass to be a God/creator/Heavenly Father! Love to everyone!
What i learn? I learn that crab can swim
SOME crabs not all
@PogChamp there are some types of crabs that can swim not all crabs are the same types of crab
@PogChamp no this crab actually swims, most crabs cannot swim to the top, but the family of swimming crabs Portunidae can all do this, they can take off from the bottom (not in video) and then swim around like in this video.

Imagine never seeing a crab before and this thing just swims up to you
, attaches to your face and begins disassembling your cheek with it's mandibles?
It's desperately trying to escape the scuba diver. Once on the sand the claws come out in defence, a position not possible while swimming.
