You want Deadliest Catch? I gotcher Deadliest Catch right here, pally!
2010-02-12
With its enormous legs and lethal claws, this monster of the deep is already the biggest crab ever seen in Britain. But astonishingly, the arthropod - which measures a staggering 10ft from claw to claw - is still growing, and could live until it is 100.
"T'ain't been a crab pot made wot could hold it!"
Nicknamed 'Crabzilla' after the fictional giant monster, the Japanese Spider Crab has a body the size of a basketball and its legs can straddle a car. They will eventually measure a massive 15ft.

#1  I see we've captured another AQ king-crabpin. This one looks to be from their media division; the bony hide, grasping appendages, small brain and staring, lifeless eyes are dead giveaways.
