Euge;870284; said:nah you have to kill the crabs before you cook em because they taste like sh*t if you don't. This only applies to large adult crabs. I've been helping out with cooking crabs for god know show long and the way my family has taught me how to do it is shove a thin long object down its mouth. All the liquid that leaks out after is all the nastiness that'll make your crab taste like poop if you don't.

As for the guy in this vid,surely he would know it's brain is not in its backside.
