In less than three thousandths of a second, these things can deliver 1,500 newtons of force with one of those strikes (the clicks you hear).

To put that into perspective, if human beings could accelerate our arms at 1/10th that speed, we could launch a baseball into orbit.

Seems cruel to put the crabs in an aquarium with it. They can't run away or anything.
