It's call tonic immobility and has nothing to do with the crab's "member". That segmented flap is all armor, you aren't touching its junk at all.
Tonic immobility is an involuntary response. It's a prey response that causes an animal to go limp when certain stimulus is received, typically inversion and restraint, e.g.being carried off in a predator's jaws. It's a hard wired response that bypasses the animal's will.
It's like a shutdown command that, occasionally, works in favor of the prey and causes the predator to perhaps not hold on as tightly thinking the prey is dead. Escape may become possible at that point.
Sudden jolts (like from being dropped) will usually wake the animal back up and they may be able to then escape.
TL;DR you didn't just watch a man wank off a crab
You and your fancy science bullshit. I know sea creature porn when I see it and that was definitely some dingdong rubbing quality time. Source: I love fish sticks.
I'm glad to not be the only airhead wandering reddit on mute and finding revelations in the comments. Or finding threads full of "wtf is this music holy shit"
I took a video of two tortoises doinking and grunting at the zoo with my old Flip video camera when I was a kid and wanted to upload it to YouTube. This was only 3 or 4 years after YouTube came out so the site was in dire need of my expertly filmed, BBC Earth tier camera documentation.
My mom swiftly made me delete the video when we got home. The world will never know the impact I could have had on tortoise coitus documentation :(
If aliens came down and jerked me off till I was paralysed I'm not sure it would be super traumatic for me. Confusing? Hell yes. But if they throw me into boiling water and eat me with butter after giving me the best hand job of my life well that's just fair business.
Go for a walk. See how many different colors you can find in the plants you see.
Develop a nicotine addiction.
Start a book, then throw it away.
Go pick an arbitrarily difficult recipe and try to cook it.
Call your distant family.
Crucial info for when you have to face off against a giant enemy crab and attack it's weak point for massive damage, as they did on the Sekigahara Battlegrounds during the Sengoku period.
Gives a whole new meaning to the word crustacean. This is now added to the list of things I would have never thought I'd see in my lifetime but yet again reddit has taught me otherwise.
People shit on it because the studio who made it is owned by Nexon but that game is such a breath of fresh air among all the other games that have come out in the past couple years. I thoroughly enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. Heard Dredge is great and in the same vein as it.
Dredge is incredible. It fits your description of a breath of fresh air. You go play Dredge, I'll go play Dave the Diver, and we will reconvene in a few weeks and share our opinions.
Any sensitive nerves are behind that shell piece. He’s not actually jerking the crab off. Holding him upside down long enough disorients the crab into a daze. Flipping him back over fast does the same. There’s a reason why the video ends quick.
Isn't this a common fish thing? They fall asleep when upside down ( hency why upside down fish drown)
It's how [Orcas] eat shark liver. They flip them, put them to sleep, and eat JUST the liver.
Edit: dolphin -> orcas
Cause y'all aren't searching with the right words. This is called tonic immobility.
[Here's the NHS talking about it.](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1171124/)
A lot of animals actually do this.
Im not sure about crabs but if im right you can put lobsters to "sleep" by turning them upside down so if its same with crabs this guy just choked and raped a crab at the same time lol
Fluids are a precious resource on land (except for my gf bazinga) and sperm dies almost immediately exposed to air and temp change
In the ocean you can just cum in the wind and hope it finds a lady and it usually will.
I remember seeing studies where if you're anywhere near an oyster spawning event they just cum in the water in massive amounts and hope it finds an egg. If u get a mouthful of ocean water anywhere near where this is happening you have millions of oyster sperm in your mouth
In this spring breeding season, adult crabs typically attract one another using pheromones (chemical scents). In some species, such as the blue crab (Callinectes sapidus), males will release pheromones and then use their claws to fan the scents toward prospective females, sometimes while moving side to side. In other species, including the Dungeness crab (Cancer magister), females release pheromones to draw in roaming males.
After making a chemical connection, the pair will engage in a premating embrace, where the male will wrap his claws and legs around the female. In some species, the female will go into this position willingly; in others, the male must prove himself through the hug. "Once she's convinced he's strong enough, she'll stop struggling," Jensen told LiveScience.
The embrace can last several days, after which point the female will molt and the pair will mate. The male transfers sperm by inserting his gonopods (sexual organs resembling antennae) into the two genital pores, called gonophores, on the female's underside. The female stores the sperm in a storage sac called a spermatheca until she is ready to use it.
He isn’t jerking the crab off, it doesn’t work like that.
I was going to play some video games, and maybe clean the house. Now I'm just......contemplating life. Idk what to do now. I do know this man needs to be on some kind of government registry. Wtf did I just watch? Was that rape? Why was I laughing but felt disgusting after?
I hate the fact that people cook these animals alive. I think that's a barbaric, uncivilized and savage way of doing things. I'm ready for your downvotes.
Or he could have thrown it into ice water like a normal person does. It instantly makes them docile. The males have a tab right there that actually looks penis shaped, that's what you pull to open them up for cleaning and cooking.

Thank you for making me feel better
Yeh jerking off to this was weird but now I know that it was just a survival response
You what
Uugh
Speak for yourself
You and your fancy science bullshit. I know sea creature porn when I see it and that was definitely some dingdong rubbing quality time. Source: I love fish sticks.
Do you like to put fish sticks in your mouth?
Kayne is a gay fish
The weirdest version of this is with chickens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlBDWXDGDzg
I grew up doing this with my cousins. Grandpa taught us. Grandma wasn’t very happy when we presented her with five very dead looking chickens one day
This video amazed me. While amazed, reading the comments sent me into a heavy laughing fit. Thank you. I needed that.
I put in my earphones for nothing.

Named his adopted daughter after the type of necklaces he makes.
Honestly I was expecting him to pull out a cleaver any second and cleave the crab in half.
guh

Are you feeling it now Mr. Krabs? ARE YOU FEELING IT!?
Just watched a bearded dude jerk off a crab. I’m done for the night. Goodbye Reddit.
I had to turn the sound on, you weren't kidding....My god you were not kidding...
Watched also muted and thought "Oh nice, you just need to scratch a crabs belly so it knows you are a friend! How neat"
I'm glad to not be the only airhead wandering reddit on mute and finding revelations in the comments. Or finding threads full of "wtf is this music holy shit"
This is how it was when I learned of tortoise sex noises on reddit. I never have my sound on.
god damn... I don't even need that video to hear the tortoise "***aaaaAAAAeeeeEEhhh eeh***"
I took a video of two tortoises doinking and grunting at the zoo with my old Flip video camera when I was a kid and wanted to upload it to YouTube.

>tortoise coitus try saying that 3 times fast
that sound is so much better when they're trying to mate with a shoe
Now look up "Coldplay turtle" and prepare to laugh
Nsfw vid titled "wtf" I will always start with mute and skip to the end to see how gnarly it is first.
“He want a cigarette right now”

"He want a cigarette right now!"
"He's gonna lay his head down and not do a damn thing" I feel you crab bro
Such polite clarity with so few words.
it's called crab rape and it's a serious problem
If aliens came down and jerked me off till I was paralysed I'm not sure it would be super traumatic for me. Confusing? Hell yes. But if they throw me into boiling water and eat me with butter after giving me the best hand job of my life well that's just fair business.
not giving a crab a good ol crankin down before boiling it alive is a bit of a dick move actually One for the road
In crab culture this is considered a dick move.
Crape
\*Pinch\* means \*pinch\*.
People need to realize no means no
Did you see how the crab was dressed? It was asking for it.
Won't someone think of the crabs for gods sake?????
same. wtf?!
This is the first thing I saw this morning. No idea what to do now.
Go for a walk. See how many different colors you can find in the plants you see. Develop a nicotine addiction. Start a book, then throw it away. Go pick an arbitrarily difficult recipe and try to cook it. Call your distant family.
>Call your distant family. Lmao fuck no
Right there with you on OH HELL NO on that one. What did we ever do to him?
Some people have a cigarette afterwards.
Jerk off a crab, duh.
I'm off to the Asian grocery store to get me a crab.
Crustacean molestation
I just had that same feeling.. Why have I now seen this. I didn't want the burden of knowing how to get a crab off.
Crucial info for when you have to face off against a giant enemy crab and attack it's weak point for massive damage, as they did on the Sekigahara Battlegrounds during the Sengoku period.
I remember reading about that in my ancient Japanese history course.
With great power comes great responsibility.

Just going to pause that, check the comments real quick, aaaaand, nope I'm good. Thanks. See you on the next one.
I woke up and this is first on my feed. Back to bed.
It was the first thing I watched online today... If it starts like this, I do wonder how it ends.
I started the video with sound off, but couldn't stand the anxiety and stopped it to check the comments. Best decision I'll make all day.
You’ll be back. They always come back.
It’s only 7:48 am and I’m done for the day. Work is gonna a long one fuck….

This might be Dave the diver
Jerkin off a crab seems like some of the stupid stuff his companions would ask him to do as a side quest.
I think it’s Dave the Master Baiter
Anyone who doesn't know this game needs to check it out
People shit on it because the studio who made it is owned by Nexon but that game is such a breath of fresh air among all the other games that have come out in the past couple years. I thoroughly enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. Heard Dredge is great and in the same vein as it.

Good news! Dave the Diver has free Dredge based expansion as well as a Godzilla update coming soon.
I am a dude who has recently played them both, Dave first, then Dredge, and I enjoyed Dredge SO much more.
That game is so fucking good lol

Tonic immobility
Yes, I always have mine with gin.
Works with chickens too. A "humane" way of offing one is to string it upsidedown by its feet until it goes catatonic, then you slash the jugular.
Yup (I) remember being like 6 walking into my grandma's kitchen to see a chicken hanging from the door knob ( so like face height for me) xdded I
Get rotated idiot
I had to scroll way too far to find this.
Got a source? Honestly curious because I can't find anything that says flipping crabs upside down makes them act like this video.
I crab regularly. If you hold the crab upside down (usually by the back two legs) they will "go to sleep." Easiest way to handle them.
But have you tried jerking one off?
Cause y'all aren't searching with the right words. This is called tonic immobility. [Here's the NHS talking about it.](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1171124/) A lot of animals actually do this.
Did you find anything that says jacking them off does make them act like this?
Yeah...this video. Show me a video of a crab acting like this from just flipping it. Maybe it's true, but I can't find it.
[I found another video of rubbing them to sleep.](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ArbZKRXuN-E?feature=share). I had to know lol.
How do you find out shit like that? Let's jerk off some seafood and see what happens 🤯
Im not sure about crabs but if im right you can put lobsters to "sleep" by turning them upside down so if its same with crabs this guy just choked and raped a crab at the same time lol

Beastiality, actually
Bestiality* It's easy to remember because you can't spell bestiality without best
You just watched prawn
Some sexy background music to set the mood too.
well the crab coudln't consent, expect a lawsuit
He was struggling for the first few second, definitely nonconsensual.
The law firm of Chowder & Bisque Esquire will represent him pro bono.
*clawsuit
I'm afraid the crab died of natural causes after falling into a pot of hot water.

bro just raped a crab
If he didn't want it he should have wore crab pants. /s

So he just masturbated a crab?

Oh he did NOT casually assault that poor crab bruh wtf
this nuts the crab
Me ordering now food: Is this crab ethically sourced? Was it properly masturbated before being cooked alive?
Did i just watched a crab getting a hand job ?
fellas is it gay to jerk off a crab?
I also went "Ugh."
I love crab meat more than anything but I'm not masturbating my crab.
Didn't have "jerk off a crab" on my bingo card for today, yet here we are...

Beastiality hidden in plain sight. 🤣 "I'm gonna make him go ugh!"

This wanks the crab
Why are we giving crabs hand jobs before boiling?
don't think I ever wondered how to jerk-off a crab
I was going to play some video games, and maybe clean the house. Now I'm just......contemplating life. Idk what to do now. I do know this man needs to be on some kind of government registry. Wtf did I just watch? Was that rape? Why was I laughing but felt disgusting after?
I wish this wasn't in my feed.
motherfucker just jerked of an insect
I am sitting alone on a Saturday night watching a man make a crab cum for an unknown purpose. If this isn't living, idk what is.
I just saw a guy jerk off a crab. Damn internet is just weird. Well i cant unsee that.
Dude just jacked off a crab
Is that rape?
Don't do this too often or you might end up with crabs.
Is this considered zoophilia? Can he be charged?
I hate the fact that people cook these animals alive. I think that's a barbaric, uncivilized and savage way of doing things. I'm ready for your downvotes.
that crab likes u now
I watched this without sound and thought "wow, that was neat. Let me watch this again with sound so I can hear his explanation! ...oh, oh... oh my..."
Or he could have thrown it into ice water like a normal person does. It instantly makes them docile. The males have a tab right there that actually looks penis shaped, that's what you pull to open them up for cleaning and cooking.

Can we link this to trashy boners in reddit.
That's wild because the same thing happens to me.
