'cut off his whole body from his finger' impeccable writing as always

It's scary that that guy had to wear a mask so the mudcrabs wouldn't learn his face and find him later. Terrifying creatures.

I'm actually very bummed that the crabs can't possibly know you're testing their grip strength. I bet those boys would LOVE that if they knew what they were doing.

The fact that you are going barefoot to look for a crab that you are suspecting of being able to CUT OFF YOUR FINGERS! 9:19

"Their claws are designed to pinch and grab, not cut."... Sounds like the perfect opportunity to design some scissors made for crabs that you can test out next.

The guy who was too scared to walk across the bridge is the only guy who had the guts to put his hand in a crab claw

I love how he casually flips us off like 7 times while making molds

Imagine if the crabs gained the ability to reach behind them We'd all be done for.

Watching this man go from making fancy bird feeders to trying to chop off his mate's fingers has been quite the delight

alex’s commitment to wearing no shoes terrifies me, especially in australia

Chicken bones (like most bird bones) are possibly the worst substitutes for human bones you could use since they're hollow and significantly more fragile

Alexi your a real one for this, you’ve done a lot for the channel and our laughs for that I thank you on behalf of everybody here

The fact that he’s bare foot and brought his apron is just….incredible. I love this man.

Never thought I’d be listening to peaceful classical music while watching a couple guys try to handshake a crab.

Alex's Lizard Brain for an hour: do not freaking put your hand in there Alex for once: yeah thats smart Also Alex: machete ceiling fan

Brings a whole new meaning to "I've fought mudcrabs more fiercesome than you!"

Alexa not wanting the crab's arm torn off and instead enduring 5 minutes of crab pinch is so inspirational, what a stoic

One of these days, he’s gonna weaponize magpies and giant huntsman spiders

A finger breaks at about 1480 newtons of force and a large mudcrab can exert up to about 3300 newtons. A typical adult femur which is the strongest bone requires about 4000 newtons of force so a mudcrab could almost break your leg if it could get it's claw around it. But that's crushing force

“Cut off his whole body from his finger” is such a cleverly funny line and I genuinely laughed after hearing it

Man can literally say "I've fought mudcrabs tougher than you!" and be 100% correct

The reason the measurements with the grip sensor capped out at 30 kg was because the bar you made prevented the grips from moving as far as they normally would, meaning that any additional force supplied by the crab was counteracted by the normal force of the sensor and metal bar.

Those middle finger reveals and cheek grip strength made the whole video 20/10

That bridge was like every 3D platformer video game bridge ever, and im jealous you get to have that. Wouldve loved it as a kid

The amount of life threatening projects he posts on this channel, but a crab pinching him is where he draws the line, is astounding.

I love how varied the topics on this channel are. It's like Alex just makes videos about whatever random thoughts pop into his head.

Somehow one of the funniest sponsor reads I've ever seen, clearly completely clowning on the game and the script they game him while being plausibly genuine. Also the first line after it made me laugh out loud

“Cut off his whole body from his finger” lmao 😅😂! This guy is fucken hilarious! Love all the videos!!

his basic survival instincts finally developed, I'm so proud of him

Important note: it's called "ballistics" gel for a reason. It's a good analog of flesh when it comes to high speed projectiles, but not when it comes to cutting and overall tensile strength, which is a higher concentration gelatin mixture

It was so cool and wholesome to see how Alex was so afraid for an hour :D

I love how Aleksa stepped up and did it yet you chickened out. The concussion king has turned into the mud crab king. Next…only god knows, but I’m waiting to find out.

The depths this man goes just for a 3 second joke most people will miss never ceases to astound me

For those who are curious: the 740lb number comes from the strongest pinch scientists recorded off a coconut crab. A crab can, on average, pinch up to 20 times their weight. The number may vary wildly too.

nothing that Alex does satisfies me more than "How ya goin"

Man love this guy he has great sense of humour Already a fan of yours 😂

❤

Alexa is a real one! Taking one for the team! Proud of you, man

That’s got to be some of the best camera work yet. I was literally holding my breath while that damn crab was grabbing on.

Your such a clever creative man. You should be so proud of yourself.

I'm so glad to see him actually have a sense of danger and hesitate to do something, I've never seen that from this channel before

alex constantly being afraid of his own dangerous ideas or creations exhibits the kind of humility and follow-through we should all aspire to have.

“I’ve fought mud crabs fiercer than you”

"Just close your eyes and put it in" 😆 that's what she said!

Man, Alex really knows how to choose his classical music and edit in such a way that it fits. Claire De Lune in that moment was so god damned beautiful

"cut off his whole body... from his finger" HAD ME IN THE FIRST HALF

Watching a mudcrab while Kafka's theme is in the background is a surreal, life-changing experience. Sasuga I-did-a-thing sama!

I enjoy seeing his welding videos honestly more than this one but I still respect him for going out and going through all that trouble just to make one video

The addition of claire de lune turned a video of someone chickening out of doing something stupid into an absolutely haunting experience. Jesus christ. Well done

FYI chicken bones and human bones are quite different. As chickens are birds their bones have heaps of holes in them to allow for flight (for other birds not so much chickens)

If there was a guide to being Australian this guy is the main inspiration

Great music choice's! listening to Debussy while I'm squirming on the lounge with sweating palms and feet was a first! Also it was strange for me, I've never shaken a shoe or boot that's been outside, (yes I'm Aussie) I've always stuck my hand in, the thought of my foot being bitten was worse than my hand and I never thought about how ridiculous that is until now, but there's NO way I'd stick my hand in that mud crabs claws. Aleksa you are a brave one!

He can’t put his hand in the mud crabs claw, but he can walk barefoot in the mud where they can attack you at any time.

Can we acknowledge the fact that Alexi the camera guy didn't want the crab to have its arm ripped off so it would let go? (22:01) And instead sat in pain for 4+ minutes to let it keep its arms and its life? What a mad lad!!!

Alex is a unit. He takes the bullet so often

i never thought i would see the day where IDAT experiences fear

One thing to note is that chicken bone (and other bird bones) are hollow unlike mammal bones, this is why birds are so light and can fly. Probably makes it a lot easier to cut through chicken bones than human bones.

Imagine having to edit out a whole hour of trying to convince Alex to let the crab pinch him, only for the cameraman to do it in 3 minutes

Been watching a few older posts. YOU ARE HYSTERICAL! 😂

These videos never fail to hit different.

He truly has fought mudcrabs more fearsome than us.

the amount of hurting that aleksa has gone through because of alex is outstanding

Thank you for recommending me this awesome game, also well done experiment.

5:09 I wasn’t prepared for that switch up and I’ve been laughing for like 5 minutes now

Alex being scared of heights after everything I’ve seen him do is incredible 💀 Dude should be missing 3 fingers and a foot but he’s scared of walking across a beam 6ft over some water 😭

I’ve never been more proud of someone for simply not putting themselves in danger, I wonder if this is how Alex’s mother feels.

His grip strength is actually impressive wtf

Every new video of him renews my amazement that he isn't yet permanently disabled

These guys are actually insane to be putting their hands into crab claws. I’m not even there and I was scared

You can never anticipate what this man will do next. It’s unpredictable. And I love it

Alex desperately trying to override his brain's sense of self preservation XD

This is one of the most Australian videos I've ever seen. "Let's fly across the country so we can get knee deep in the mud and fuck with some big ass crabs"

Woah, I had no idea they made Mudcrabs from Oblivion a real thing. This is like the time I found out Narwhals were real

I get so excited whenever you post a new video because it's evidence you didn't die doing something stupid.

"You cant fast travel now. There are enemies nearby" -Mudcrab 5 miles away

this was so funny, thumbs up. some of the best content on youtube in my opinion:D

Clair de lune playing while deciding what mudcrab to get clapped by is top tier content

I tend to use lobsters as my can openers instead, more expensive but they come in prettier colours and last longer

I’m watching this a couple days after the streamy thing. CONGRATS DUDE!

needless to say this youtuber is one of the greatest people to walk this earth

My whole life I've thought mud crabs were just an enemy in Skyrim, I didn't know that they actually made them into a real thing 🤯

Ngl it's kinda nice to know there's shit Alex won't do. Makes me a little more confident he won't die for this channel

Nice job, you have officially made Australian TVFilthyFrank.

"How you doing, now I've got pretty dodgey stuff in my garage" you don't fucking say thats seems pretty obvious

"I've got some pretty dodgy stuff in my garage" Dodgy is an understatement lol

Since it wasnt stated in the video I wanted to mention that not all crabs have the same strength in both claws. The mudcrabs claws here in the video appear to be similar, but other varients of crabs have whats called (for lack of a better name at the moment) the pincer claw, and the choppy claw. They have one claw specifically for holding and moving things such as rocks, shells, and wood including an attacker which is typically their skinny claw, and the other claw that's generally larger and stronger is used to break sticks, harm enemies and destroy prey such as other crabs legs, and in the case you were hoping for would be unsuspecting toes and fingers. Im not a crab specialist or marine biologist, but I hope this information helps some curious comment readers.

just a tip, maybe use different bones that ones of birds as they have hollow bones which makes them a lot weaker

Dude you should read stories for people to watch before they sleep because your voice is so calming and makes me want to pass out

these videos have a strange calming aura to them. not sure if it’s alex’s voice, the classical music, or the homey feeling where his friends are there to goof around together. i enjoy it a lot!

As a Chinese, i truly appreciate the effort you put in for pronouncing those Chinese words. made my day

remember, the lesser the surface area, the more power. this is the equivalent to pinching someone using 20x your body weight in force. if a human did that with their thumb and pointer finger, i recon they would break skin, muscle along with maybe some bone.

"You cannot fasttravel, while enemy´s are nearby"

I appreciate all of the small props that you create and use. They add a lot to the video, even if only seen for 3 seconds.

Aleksa is a wayyy braver man than I, but I'd also laugh my ass off if it was my friend doing it after I chickened out.

That grown man beggin for the crab to be removed as the crabs casually blowing bubbles lol

17:34 this. horror movie writers, this is what fear really looks like

Willem is hilarious. Such a treat seeing him appear and a video with you

Alex will use a plasma cutter barefoot but yet is cautious with the mud crab claw.

You should make a katakana that with a click of a button comes out of the hilt vertically like those vertical switch blades
