Diving for lobster is an activity that requires a little bit of equipment and a lot of daring. In California, it’s even more frightening, because they hunt a species called the “California Spiny Lobster” which only comes out at night. During the day, the spiny lobster hide in their holes, and while they look a bit nastier than east coast lobsters, the California crawlers actually don’t have any claws.

A YouTube video shows one diver hunting for the elusive bugs when he stumbles upon the jackpot — a creature so big he can’t carry him in one hand.
