Wish I could find the video of one of these guys sitting on my finger for several minutes while spooling out a web line that made them look like they were practicing karate.

This little baby is a Lord Howe Rock Lobster and was thought to be extinct until found on a sea rock a few years ago. Now there are hundreds of thousands of them.
