Moment Crab Hides Behind Dumbbell To Avoid Ending Up In Womans Wok

This is the moment a crab apparently hides behind a dumbbell to avoid being cooked with its pals in a Chinese woman’s work.

The clip was filmed at the woman’s home in the north-western Malaysian state of Kedah and the footage was shared on her Facebook page.

Netizen ‘Fatin Nurul Asyiqin’ said she was cooking lunch when she realised a live crab was roaming the flat.

She subsequently found the elusive crustacean hiding under a dumbbell and found the scene amusing, later sharing the footage on social media.

Fatin said she was certain her husband brought home five crabs that morning, but was surprised to notice a sixth roaming the hall.

She told local media that she has no idea how the crab escaped and managed to wander around the apartment until apparently finding an appropriate hiding spot.

In the clip, Fatin stirs the wok, already containing several crabs, before walking along the hall and into the living room.

She quickly spies the missing crab behind a dumbbell on the floor and starts laughing.

She moves the dumbbell and the scared crab starts retreating as she tells it off.

It is unclear if the crab suffered the same fate as its five fellow crabs.
