@@misstinwhistle1 You've got it backwards. Compared to most members of the animal kingdom human vision is superior in terms of detail, distance and colour differentiation. The only category of animals that consistently outdoes us in those metrics are birds of prey. Pretty much the only aspect that we outright do poorly in is night vision, and that's a direct consequence of specialising for the aforementioned colour perception. Regarding the Mantis Shrimp specifically, it's worth noting that they can't actually perceive the colours that we see all that well.

Punches so fast the friction causes water to boil. I know you think I'm kidding but look it up.

3:14 the other fish wanted to watch the fight lol

[@simeon24]

Wait, maybe 5% of the footage is from the spy crab. It’s purely to add some novelty for our dwindling attention spans. Still a solid nature piece though!

[@orchidahussuhadihcro9862]

Good catch. Most people will fail to notice so.

[@dothex]

Or the fact the title says it like the crab was supposed to actually survive a battle with the mantis shrimp. People here are so drawn to shiny keys......

Imagine a guy with camera for mouth stalking you at night.

[@edwindungdung1998]

Imagine the betrayal in the small crab's eyes, as he watches spy crab just watching him getting pummelled to death.

As a diver, who observes a lot of sea life in its natural habitat, I doubt any of these creatures mistakes the robot for an actual crab. As is pointed out, the visual capabilities of these shrimp is beyond ours, not to mention other senses that would likely identify that thing to them as just more plastic that humans have left in the sea. The shrimp is a crab eater, after all, but certainly made no attempt to eat the robot, lol.

[@84jdgregory]

Pretty sure it's because the robot is the camera man and everyone knows the. Camera man always lives.

[@h0gheadS]

They probably just think "what's this goofy, slow, loud crab trying to do?"

[@kumaflamewar6524]

to be fair thats a big crab. the shrimp might have just decided it wouldnt fit in the hole

[@antcantcook960]

Youre a diver not a biologist, stay in your lane. And other land animals have been fooled enough by the robots, but sea creatures are different?

[@extremechimpout]

@@antcantcook960I don't think he is a diver even just some fat nerd
