When a species evolves from living in water to living on land it’s called terrestrialization, and it’s not an easy task. Yet crabs keep making the jump from sea to shore. Why? And how do they do it?

Gods of Science - The Coup
@The Hondo It’s a gimmick. Notice how they don’t play any samples of the music in the incorporated ad for fear of the sponsor demonetizing the video and stealing the ad revenue back.
I would be very interested to see this develop over the next million years.
I don't know what is more fascinating. Crabs turning to land animals or people out there existing that make music for scientists.
That album is absolute ear cancer.
This guy sounds just like Hank…LOL
Oh there was one appearing in my garage. My house is nowhere near waterplace.
Is it me or is Michael turning into snape
Me and my guy need to start working out
Crabs are armored balloons, got it.
the future be like:EWWWW a crab gross
Imagine millions of years in the future, fully terrestrial land crabs become as common as cockroaches, competing bio niches with insects, and small vertebrates like rodents and lizards.
Mandarin + Vampire + Crab, that's the ultimate life form
Next up in Evolution: Crabs that moved the sea, to the land, to the air. Flying Crabs. *shudder*
as on islander hearing him call a coconut crab a robber crab kind of tickles my bones
It's all fun and games until you take out the trash and see Zoidburg munching on last nights pizza.
crabs and tool use? oh snap, monkeys and dolphins, prepare for a new rival
Ancient Sea People = Crap People
Generally, crabs wanna take over all parts of the planet
Crabs are not whales? Are you sure? How do we even know what isn't a crab at this point?
Scishow: Reject Crab Eons: Return to Crab
Next time: Crab People
I became a Patrick Olson fan yesterday. 'The Dot', 'All We Have' and 'For Your Love' are my favorites.
Crabs are not whales? When did that happen?
Guys, chill. They're just planning a live action of the Crab Rave.
land animals → crabs crabs → land animals
everything is turning into crabs!
By far the least irritating of the posse.
Hey why are crabs triggering my anti-spider instincts
I'D RATHER BE SHINYYYY
Now I want to go get some steamed giant water bug at Red Lobster.
Crab baptism...
Those damg crabs 🦀
Why are you wearing that jacket?
But wait a minute... wasn't it a crab who said "Under the sea, under the sea. Darling it's better down where it's wetter, take it from me" ?
Probably jealous of frogs.
I am suddenly thankful for these limitations that prevent crabs from growing the size of an elephant...
When will crabs go to space?
Bro you are a great speaker.
who else remembers when this host was skinny?
why the jacket? is your studio in Texas?
crabs are so messed up
Did you switch to a new shampoo?
Crabs are not whales, check
Ok but, when do we start calling them Spiders? I mean, aren't they basically evolving into some new species of spiders? One of their closest relatives.
MMM Crab cakes haaaawww
Holy Crab! That's amazing!
I really really want crabs to create internal skeletons by actually creating bones or internalizing their exoskeleton, with that they have more support for muscle and fleshy outsides... The pincers may still have the exoskeleton making it look like they are using gloves
Crabs are not whales... yet.
A few weeks ago there was said that animals turn into crabs, now these "ascend" to the surface. But there are hardly any landcrab animals where spiders are, right? Even though there's a weaving scorpion. But islands like Guam would have gotten their many spiders from deforestation or other "overuse" i guess, spiders as "police animals" are a sign the environment is supposed to heal. I just thought of several islands that had gotten degenerated so no sweetwater (d)rains down there
Im becoming fairly certain that microbiome extinction and /or bloom events are responsible for extinction events.
So what you're saying is, Zoidberg might be more accurate than we realize?
Ey, call sam l Jackson here!, his v is here
Wooop woooop woop woooop!!! (zoidberg)
I am only here to say: GIANT ENEMY CRAB
Cut your hair hippie
CRAB PEOPLE CRAB PEOPLE!
Real time evolution thanks to poisoned seas! Cool!(?)
The tortoises/terrapins/turtles have gone back and forth from land to water several times.
Something tells me that this active brood care thing and communal existence is eventually going to lead to advanced tool usage, more advanced communal behavior... and maybe very clicky language. And we all know where that goes.
whale whale whale what do we have here
I wonder if this is how the dinosaurs looked at mammals way back when.
Theory: the true reason crabs are going onto land is because of the kids who are catching crabs and then have them race against each other...
you have fattened up so much
Crustaceans becoming crabs, crabs becoming land insects Land insects becoming uhh....
Crab is love
Cuz the land is where it’s at, homey
4:42 _houngry_ ? reference to kyle kulinsky ?
In a few millennia "Crabs keep supplanting humans"
Thank you so much for uploading this video. It is helping me to get through the pandemic!
Masks PROTECT YOU and people around you!
CRABS WILL INHERIT THE EARTH
Abandon humanity EMBRACE KRAB
Crabs keep turning into land animals. SciShow keeps putting the words they are speaking on the screen. It's like watching an audio book.
I thought everything was turning into crabs?
How do crabs leave hospitals ? On crotches .
Well crabs are landocean
Scientists are losers. Nature has done everything for us and man somehow thinks we can 1 up nature... thanks to that we are the most disease ridden species of animal existing on the planet today. Thanks for viruses and food based illness, scientists.
Why is this a crab?
“Crabs are not whales.. as you may have noticed” Lies.
So things keep evolving into crabs and crabs keep turning into land animals.🤔 alfirst.info/load/q6udgmq9gr2BqKs/video
And some have ever adapted to run a prominent fast food restaurant
4:00 like Kiff from futurama?
Are we on a pre-shard roshar?
Land is where it's at!!
Reject modernity Return to crab
Crab People.
Is this a joke?
i think michael is evolving to permanently have a coat on
Gee, sounds like humans billions of years ago.
Sorry, a 'roley poley'. I think you mean woodlouse
You look like Adam drivers cousin
Never thought I'd be so intrigued by crab evolution
Reject humanity EMBRACE LAND CRAB
I think certain species of Vampire crabs lay their eggs into humid mosses. And there are several species of land crab like rainbow crabs for example, that molt underwater
This guy is getting fat 🤔
Isn’t this just advanced carcinization?
I hate how you Americans put a Z everywhere a S should be, like Terrestrialization. You claim to be an English speaking country yet you pronounce Herbs without H and aluminum all wrong. If you speak and write English, why not follow the country you claim to speak and write after... ENGLAND!
My main complaint with Scishow is that I'd much prefer to see footage clips of what you're talking about instead of just a still image of the animal and then y'all talking and waving your hands about. I do like to watch y'all talk about the subject but many times you mention some really cool stuff I'd like to see.
What word did he use at 3:09? “Kite-n-ous.” I want to know how it’s spelled so I can look it up and add it to my vocabulary.
@Ithirahad Thanks a million!
Chitinous.
I noticed you couldn't get the Jamaican Snail crab to sign a release 🤣 I love crabs, I'm crabby too, sometimes!
Are you cold bro?
In one million years the crabs will be horse-sized intelligent creatures that dominate the Earth like humans before them.
The carb build is the ultimate animal.
