Video starts with with crab up at the top of the golf bag. Apparently crabs can climb trees, so it could be possible for it to climb a golf bag. But I’m always suspicious because so many viral videos are staged.

It couldn’t manage a whole sand wedge?

If it were me, I think I’d carry around one of those little propane torches, and apply some heat to the situation…like dealing with an embedded tick. I wonder if that would be a sufficient deterrent?

You’ll regret it when the crab beats you up and turns the torch on you!
