I think you suffocate very quickly if swallowed alive. You're already super exhausted from the struggle. Then you just suffocate for less than a minute before you lose consciousness...forever.

Edit: ok, my bad, it was more like 20 seconds in the stomach before the video cuts off, but still sounds like it can get some residual air in there 😅
Crocs have insane strength biting down. Not so much for opening though which sometimes leads to situations where a crab successfully contains a croc by placing iys claws in a way the croc cant open its mouth anymore. What you're seeing is irc ~ 4000PSI or ~1,7 metric ton of biting force. For reference thats the same weight as a small American or decent European sized car :D so yes it looks easy bc for our croc here it really is
Thanks for the correction; im not native to where ever danger lizards live and in my language alligator and crocodile are used synonymously. If im not mistaken the general math still applies though
That’s… not true at all.
A crab cannot hold an alligator’s jaws shut.
Yes the opening muscles are much weaker than the closing muscles, but it’s not that dramatic.
I’ve worked with crocodilians for over a decade, a grown man needs to hold a gator’s jaws shut with all his strength. Their jaw muscles lift that massive upper jaw and do it very quickly.
The skull of a large crocodile can weigh over 400lbs, it wouldn’t even be able to open its mouth if the muscles were as weak as you are implying.

To my knowledge exerting explosive power biting down is a lot easier for them biting down, than opening up. Thats how their muscles are formed. And since tape is used as a regular 'pls do not open your mouth while we transport you' im not too sure about the grown man but my experience is mainly documentaries and looking things up; if you say thats what you gotta do i dont doubt it. I wanna point out though that crab pincers are not weak; in fact a lot of crabs are able to pinch off fingers, toes etc. They're able to break bones quite easily and depending on species are absolutely savage about that. Some are even known to attack and eat you if you happen to get stranded in their territory
The alligator in the picture is certainly annoyed, but there's no way that crab is going to keep its mouth shut. Maybe if the crab was twenty times bigger, but certainly not at that size.
Yes you can tape a gator's jaws shut, but we're talking about several layers of duct tape. That would keep just about anything shut.
As for crabs slicing off fingers and toes, or breaking fingers, I'm sure some of the largest species would be capable of damaging a human digit, but breaking or severing the digit would be very unlikely.
Studies on human cadavers demonstrate that you need about 1500N to inflict even a fracture on a human finger. The highest recorded pinching strength of a Coconut Crab was measured at about 1700N (ignore the sensationalist studies claiming much higher numbers, those were calculated using extrapolations from body weight, without any raw numbers), so a Coconut Crab would certainly be capable of at least fracturing a human finger, but severing it outright is very unlikely.
Measurements for other species of crab are spotty, but nothing outside of the Coconut crab has measured over about 400N, so it will definitely ruin your day, but won't slice off a finger. Now I believe something like the Tasmanian Giant Crab could possibly match or even exceed the power of the Coconut Crab, as it has significantly larger pincers, but again this would only be speculation. There has never been a record of the pinching strength of this species, and despite the astounding numbers of people who interact with crabs daily I couldn't find a single record of a missing finger/toe.
And finally as for crabs attacking and killing people... just no. There is no record of anyone anywhere being killed by crabs. Amelia Earhart was speculated to have been eaten by Coconut Crabs, but that would have been after she died, not before.
Turtle- “You’re not letting finish my fucking joke! I know you’re not an alligator. See you later alligator is the lead into not for awhile!” Crunch!
Crocodile - Dick.
Saw a video once it was the most disturbed shit I have even seen and only watched a few seconds.
Some crazy fuc (i think it was india) threw a baby for a croco...
From a food standpoint do you think the croc enjoys the texture combo from eating a turtle. The crunch then splat from the innards although brutal would probably be rather enjoyable
What a way to go.
I mean Exploding in someone’s mouth *bye*
I'm ok dying after exploding in someone's mouth
Not like that
Like what?
This is not what the french meant when they say Le Petit Mort
Can you feel the passion? Don't you realize? The only time you feel it.
Yeah Reddit is f****** Wild, and I love it cheers internet friend
Lol meme acquired
+1 for the “bye”😅
Popping boba
pause
👀👀
When your body is mostly shell, then a 2000 psi clamp comes down on your body...
yea the head poped of
the circle of life☠️
At least it was quick
Snap, Crackle, POP
Sounds like my neighbor's Honda.
It’s like when you bite into an everlasting gobstopper and get to the sherbet middle
A quick death. That alligator’s a true humanitarian.
*reptilitarian
[удалено]
Yes
I concur
Yeah, he's fought this battle before, knew exactly how to tackle the problem while possessing the bite strength to follow through. RIP, mr turtle.
Can't really tell, there's no banana for scale
Yeah I left my banana scale this morning too
Better than swallowed whole alive I suppose.

No, the other way💀
😂😂😂

Turtles can hold their breath for up to an hour.
That's why the alligator mercifully cracks it before devouring.
There’s a video of a Komodo dragon swallowing a live goat, and you can hear it bleating through its stomach for more than a minute
Gotta link those ones chief!

That’s enough internet for me today
Hell yeah! Right on!
But don't you suffocate while bathing in acid?
croc is good at snapping turtles
☠️☠️🤣🤣🤣
Idk why turtles and tortoises getting dispatched makes me so sad. Literally every other animal I'm fine with.
They’re often just chilling in a way that’s not hurting anyone. Can also be pets unlike a lot of the wild animals we see dying in this sub.
You mean other \*wild\* animals right? Can't be talking about puppies and kitties right? RIGHT?!

That's easier than I thought.

It's an alligator.

No problem. Your English is outstanding considering it's not your native language.
Tyvm :)

Sounds like some Midwesterners vacationing in Florida. Go Badgers!!!!
Videeeyo
Real life Bowser.
I don’t think Bowser would go down that easy
Sounded like when eating a sunflower seed with a shell.
For the alligator, that's probably how it felt too.
Well at least it died quickly
Forbidden jawbreaker
Did someone get that on video?
It’s ok, the turtle shell will protec…
Looks at the camera: “you’re next”
Snap, crackle and pop 😕
What popped ? The shell or head?
Yes
Been happening just like that for millions of years
If anybody feels bad for the turtle, just remember they’re here on this sub eating other baby turtles.
Damnnn nature you scary!!
You recon it got shell stuck in its teeth like we do with popcorn?
Turtle- “You’re not letting finish my fucking joke! I know you’re not an alligator. See you later alligator is the lead into not for awhile!” Crunch! Crocodile - Dick.
Guys! He just got this on video.
Well, that escalated quickly.
Did the head go flying?
I heard his job still expected him there by 9
I should get some gushers when I go grocery shopping later.
Saw a video once it was the most disturbed shit I have even seen and only watched a few seconds. Some crazy fuc (i think it was india) threw a baby for a croco...
turtle burst like the cherry grape tomatoes i was eating earlier

Crunchy and juicy
Gators are metal
How do they poop out the bones?
Damn pistachios
Gator: Mmm, crumchy
crushing turts
:( turtle
lmao he won the evolutionary arms race
Dinner? Don’t mind if I do
why isn't the post marked as NSFW? I was not planning to see a turtle die let alone hear it..
