As a kid our parents took us to the south pacific where there were coconut crabs. On that island in 1971 there many things you had to watch out for. The first day we were there they pulled a 19 foot croc off the playground. Everyone seemed to take coconut crabs with respect. Especiallly at night!

They’re tasty. The fact that they mostly eat coconuts is a clue to their flavor profile.😉
Stop eating our endangered species
Excellent video. I landed here because I just learned those monsters vanquished Amelia Erhard when she got stranded on an island in the Pacific. Absolute nightmare fuel. Imagine meeting one of their ancestors that is 2 meters in size :D
Let's just hope she had passed before that. Something was eventually going to consume her body if she passed.
What I get from this is that coconut crabs are kind of like the sharks of the crustacean world: they're super cool, endangered, and should be protected, but also they're pretty dangerous, will eat almost anything, and it's a very bad idea to bother one unless you fancy losing a few fingers or so.

Oof. Sorry, mate. I just get rather defensive of these guys because everyone in the comments seems to want them dead. Hard to distinguish the ones that are joking from the ones that I’ve seen literally kill them out of hate. My apologies.
The fact that the crab knew to break the booby’s wings is somewhat scary.
Yea like, Oh you can fly. SNAP!
SOMEWHAT
Nah probably just grabbed it, bird bones are hella frail and this crab's claws are huge.
moke tbh the crab has probably lived for a while seeing birds fly over its head to a new location thus learning the move by flight therefore after a extended period of time it knew to incapacitate a bird it had to break its wings. Most animals learn their prey by watching. Humans did the same!
@@TheGreenUnknown seriously the sheer force of the crabs claw is more than enough to break the wing without the crab thinking about it. They aren't very intelligent so tend to know things by nature rather than learning.

Well it is plausible. If you get stranded on an island with these things, they're likely going to find you in your sleep. If they get a hold of you, they'll potentially break a bone. Can't even hide in a tree because they're great climbers.
@Commander Cody Overused joke #2
Funnily, if you pet their butts they fall asleep.
You can grab them fom behind quite easily. They will however try to move your fingers towards their claws with their legs. Do not let them do that!
After they fall asleep you can put them on their head or any other pose you find amusing. After a while they will wake up a bit desoriented and annoyed.
I'd be pretty annoyed too.
And then they begin to dismantle you.

She probably should have added that if this happened it was post-mortem, because the way it's phrased here makes it sound like Amelia Earhart was eaten alive by crabs.
Her plane was never found either, so it's more likely that Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan drowned in the middle of the ocean.
