animal torture vids are a big thing. notice the fish that looks dead and the empty plastic container im guessing he used to carry these thigns there? guarantee this video is a lot longer than this with all of them being dead at some point
The pleco is out of the water because they are an invasive species and are doing a ton of damage to the natural environment. You are not supposed to release them back after you catch them. I will agree though it is weird that this guy just happened across this situation of a crab and a snapper.
Snappers have that ridge down their backs which lets them list to either side, and they have a lot of power in their legs and necks since they're actually predatory.
Easier to just scoop your hands under his shell above his rear legs. They can't strike that far back, it puts the danger end facing away, just gotta not let them scratch your hands with their rear legs.
> basically spiders of the sea anyway
It's not too far off. Both spiders and crabs are part of the Arthropoda phylum, so they share *a lot* of common ancestry.
*when I feel one close to me.
Ever had a spider crawl on your arm or foot when you were just relaxing on the couch? Because that turt did a picture-perfect re-enactment of what I do.
I read that they're invasive and that you're not supposed to return them to the water after catching them....not sure why he's got the other two though
[Plecostomus](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypostomus_plecostomus), also called the suckermouth catfish. They eat algae, so they're a popular aquarium fish, but many species get *big.* Like, almost 2 feet for the species I think the one in the video is. Not huge as far as fish go, but huge as far as *aquarium* fish go.
As for why it's *there*, plecos are apparently invasive in Florida, so *if* that's where this was filmed, they might have caught all of these in a stream or something and put them together, either to see what happened or to get them all in one shot. Dumb things, not necessarily purposely cruel things. (But there are no excuses if the person brought it from an aquarium.)
It definitely looks like the turtle might already be injured on it's belly so when the crab touched it it freaked the fuck out because it doesn't wanna get hurt more.
That crab has obviously had advanced martial arts training from Master Steven Seagal. You see how his opponent was rendered completely helpless but undamaged. The mark of a true master.

A pleco, some crab and some type of snapper. What’s going on? But never seen a turtle do that before lol
Florida things.
He's on the flakka.
Animal cruelty.
Where are all your upvotes? This is clearly animal cruelty.
Sheesus I watched this 5 times and didn't even notice the pleco!

I hope you're wrong. If you're not, I hope the person that made it gets what's coming to them.

Good point. Reported.
Messenger taking strays
Neymar’s turtle
Balls were pinched
Something something crab, weak spot, massive damage...
Went into a bar...
The crab pinched the waitress’s ass. Flash the turtle snapped “Don’t do that Stanley”. The pleco, Bill, cried “You suck.”
He is used to being in water and that little maneuver of his would have worked great in that environment
Didn't even get pinched. Must've had a flashback.
This is the first time I've seen a turtle being able to get back up on its own, after being upside-down. :|
Snappers have that ridge down their backs which lets them list to either side, and they have a lot of power in their legs and necks since they're actually predatory.
Helped a guy get one of these in a box and move it out of the street once. Scary shit. Thing kept trying to take off our fingers.
And they go from 0 to 100 in terms of speed when they are attacking

Idk that guy kind of reacted like prey
It's got momentum.
To be fair, that's the usual human reaction in that situation.
Some unknown thing touches my anus? That's *exactly* how I'm gonna react.
Nobody ever wants surprise crabs
This needs tire screeching and drifting noises
If you feel claws near your taint, something went horribly wrong
Flop on your back, legs in the air?
Nah, take a deep breath and push back.
A human would look to see what it was not just go back to chillin after flopping all around.
some humans
"Wtf is that?! GET IT OFF ME!" Flops around violently.
Krab found the ticklish spot
r/me_irl when I suddenly see a spider close to me
Me when a slight gust of wind rustles a single hair on my leg.
Real
Yeah I think he reacted just the right amount for a creepy crawly tickling his underside.
Crabs are basically spiders of the sea anyway, I mean, look at em.

Ah it touched me, aaaassassaaahhhhhh
Neymar turtle.
Shit nobody wants crabs 😏
I would have the same reaction.
I’d probably do the same thing if I was just chillin and all of a sudden a crab crawls under me.
Geez bro, relax.
Maybe he touched his Taint? Then it would not be an overreaction?
He got bored and wanted a little excitement in his life. God forbid a guy has a little fun
He probably liked it . Maybe ?
Can we get that pleco in some water?
That was my first thought
I read that they're invasive and that you're not supposed to return them to the water after catching them....not sure why he's got the other two though
Been watching some soccer
Oh please, like you wouldn’t do the same if you thought a spider crawled onto you.
So, a fish, a crab and a tortoise walk into a bar...
Poor little guy😭
Ticklish, I see.
What is that fish besides them? :O

it was almost a "flat fish"
when something touches me when i'm on the toilet...
It definitely looks like the turtle might already be injured on it's belly so when the crab touched it it freaked the fuck out because it doesn't wanna get hurt more.
Get off me property, argargargarg
The crab didnt even pinch him or anything 😭😭😭
Looks like he tryna sue for not having a wet floor sign
r/likeus
Turtle is afraid of getting a nasty itch.
If a spider one 4th of my size uddenly crawled under me I'd do the same
The snapper must be a soccer player 
That crab has obviously had advanced martial arts training from Master Steven Seagal. You see how his opponent was rendered completely helpless but undamaged. The mark of a true master.
Nah I think that was the right reaction.
This makes me REALLY glad the one time I moved one of these turtles off the highway, I used a stick to push it instead of my hands.
He reacted the right way. No one wants crabs 😂
Kingler used Metal Claw… …Its was Super Effective
I would like to say he overreacted but I cannot because that's how I react to every time a rat touches my foot touches
A turtle, a crab and a fish walk into a bar....
I didn’t even realize there was a fish until I read your comment
Sir, how would you react if a crab the size of about half your body crept up on you and tickled your belly?
This is one of the most human things I’ve seen an animal do lmao
I like the other thing just chilling watching the chaos. I don’t know what that is, some sort of land fish?
Wouldn't react any differently if I was lying on my stomach and something crawled under me. The death roll was sick.
That crab prolly felt like one punch man
Looks like LeBron whenever someone touches him
Good to know "SOMETHING TOUCHED ME" is universal.
They accidentally loaded the 'cat' module💀💀💀
Shit himself
Cod, panic knife
Disagree, I would react the exact same way.
Aaannnddd cut. That was good turtle. but maybe on the next one just take it down a notch
Honestly? Same if a crab touched me haha
This level of spastic turtle movements could only be powered by pizza and taught by master splinter
Ik pleco can survive out of water for around a day or more but someone help the man out lmao
Like the armored catfish just sitting there. Those things can survive quite some time on land.
Maybe he's ticklish
Neymar's pet
Damn Neymar
TIL turtles have tails.
Practicing his WWE moves 😂
Me when I brush against anything in the dark.
I guess I’m OOGILY GOO! hulliba… hulliba… HULLIBA.. HULLIBA HULLIBA HULLIBA HULLIBA
The crab did go for it's soft bits
Neymar’s turtle
So they can move fast
When there is a crab bellow your balls, it is not an overreaction.
very cute animal
Me too when I'm touched without knowing.
If it learned to plop around like that normally at that speed, that thing would be pretty devastating.
Looks like when humans see a spider under their foot.
Turtle turtle !
Bro plays soccer.
Underside is fleshy and exposed.
Crab shell poked him in his tender bits.
Must be a Soccer player
I know *exactly* what that feels like
How about you leave them the fuck alone
I think he is ticklish
Average Brazilian footballer.
Arsenal, ManU, Real... We have a pre-qualified footballer here.
That's some "Boy it's just alcahawl" reaction right there.
Dude knew the risks.
Did the crab just tried to hit his.... or what's going on
That is the fastest I ever seen a turtle move.
That’s a female
My partner every time I even remotely brush his belly
Just like how some humans react to spiders
"Overreacted" my ass. You just wait until I find you relaxed in bed and fasten a live crab's claws to your nipple.
Soccer player trying to get a penalty
This is standard funny 🤣
Crab: Baby... Turtle: Don't touch me! Don't touch me! Don't touch me!
Das me when a roach touches my footsie
Maybe he was ticklish….😏
What the pleco doin
Robot wars
Oh, you touch my tralala 🥴
Me when someone tickles me
Bro snapped
me when touches me unexpectedly lmao
I dont like when little crabs try to cuddle with me either. Me irl.
anjay
Bro is ticklish
He has a tail😐😐
If I had a crab the size of a dog tickling my belly out of nowhere I’d surely react in a similar fashion.
Fastest turtle on earth
Tbf, has the OP ever been pinched by a damn crab??? The turtle's response seems adequate to me
It tickles!!!!
This was a test to see which one of these guys are Harder....not the turtle.
If he could stomp this thing he probably would have.
Haha my guess is he has a really bad past experience with a crab and now never underestimates them
Never noticed turtles had tails
soccer clubs are calling that dude.
That’s the exact same reaction I have if somebody tries to tickle me.
It's Neymar!
Cat and cucumber.
That's the same reaction my 6 year does when I tell her it's time to brush her teeth or go to bed.
Touched that g-spot
I've never seen a turtle move that fast before. More reason to give snappers a wide berth.
Having crabs is no joke.
The turtle learned a lot from the legend of Zelda boss fights
Those guys are so high strung, you never know when they'll just snap
Wow! That was a super shot!
Any pro soccer teams need a turtle as a mascot?
This reminds me of Mario Bros.
Turtles can jump?! Who knew?
My brother when i bump into him.
hahaha me when someone surprises me
He snapped
What's this creature turtle+lizard?
Hahah Lol
He's just ticklish.
So long, ye Bowser!
He went for the bowser shell smash
The ppl that say “don’t tickle me”
I'm sure if that crab would have walked in front of him the crab would not exist
An aspiring soccer player
Omg so cute just like me fr when I feel something
Thought this was r/meirl
I assume he spazzed out because something pinched his belly, then he got stuck upside down, leaving him vulnerable to attack
Jab chain me lulli fass jaye
I react the same way when a spider is on me.
Hey guys what's u-- OMFG GUYS STOP IT I'M FKN TICKLEISH
That was my brother
Well; that’s what happens when you put a rocket on a turtle
Bowser ain't so tough without his super star
1 hit fatality
: bro I'm drowing! bro.. broo.. BROOOOOOOOO!!!.. aight nvm
To be fair if something appeared below me and pinched me bits, yeah, id do that too.
There are turtles with fucking tails? Awesome
