Diver Gets Hug From Creepy Spider Crab

Turns out even giant spider crabs appreciate a good hug! This diver was lucky enough to get a cuddle from the creepy creature, when she went scuba diving in Port Phillip Bay in Melbourne. It’s possible that the crab’s soft shell made it feel more vulnerable to predators such as octopuses and stingrays, and was clinging to the diver to help protect itself. Credit: YouTube/PinkTankScuba
