Catching lobsters with your hand looks hilariously impossible


Because my only experiences with live lobsters are when they're on display in tanks at restaurants or used for poses in photographs, I never knew how insanely quick they can be. And because I didn't know they had cat-like reflexes, I never knew how hilarious it is to watch people fail at catching them. Now I know.


It's so great. I love it when animals outsmart our bumbly bodies. But of course we then ruin it by using tools to overfish them.



And here's a video of a successful catch. Pro tip: use a net.
