The dinner could run by itself!
A funny video shows a woman, Virginia Simmons, who lives in California, hilariously pulled the whole bag of crabs without being bundled when she was ready to cook them. The crabs escaped from the pot and ran everywhere.

It can be seen in the video that Virginia poured the crabs into the pot, but they quickly escaped from the container. The scene scared her to scream loudly while she seemed to film a footage to record her cooking process.
She quickly grabbed a pair of tongs to catch the crabs and the process was totally chaotic. The crabs were desperately resisting with their claws, with one of them clamped the tongs and struggled the whole time.

Eventually, the cook successfully caught all the crabs back into the pot, but she was so tired that couldn't stop gasping. In order to celebrate the victory, she opened a bottle of alcohol, with half of it was poured into the pot for seasoning, with another half was drunk by her.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (AP) — One of the first police officers to respond to the 2022 school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, goes on trial Monday on charges that he failed to protect children during the attack, when authorities waited more than an hour to confront the gunman.
Adrian Gonzales, a former Uvalde schools officer, faces 29 counts of child abandonment or endangerment in a rare prosecution of an officer accused of not doing more to stop a crime and protect lives.
The teenage gunman killed 19 students and two teachers at Robb Elementary in one of deadliest school shootings in U.S. history.
Nearly 400 officers from state, local and federal law enforcement agencies responded to the school, but 77 minutes passed from the time authorities arrived until a tactical team breached the classroom and killed the shooter, Salvador Ramos. An investigation later showed that Ramos was obsessed with violence and notoriety in the months leading up to the attack.
Gonzales and former Uvalde schools police chief Pete Arredondo were among the first on the scene, and they are the only two officers to face criminal charges over the slow response. Arredondo's trial has not yet been scheduled.
The charges against Gonzales carry up to two years in prison if he is convicted. The trial, which is expected to last up to three weeks, begins with jury selection.
Gonzales pleaded not guilty. His attorney has said Gonzales tried to save children that day.
Police and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott initially said swift law enforcement action killed Ramos and saved lives. But that version quickly unraveled as families described begging police to go into the building and 911 calls emerged from students pleading for help.
The indictment alleges Gonzales placed children in “imminent danger” of injury or death by failing to engage, distract or delay the shooter and by not following his active shooter training. The allegations also say he did not advance toward the gunfire despite hearing shots and being told where the shooter was.
State and federal reviews of the shooting cited cascading problems in law enforcement training, communication, leadership and technology, and questioned why officers waited so long.
According to the state review, Gonzales told investigators that once police realized there were students still sitting in other classrooms, he helped evacuate them.
Some family members of the victims have said more officers should be indicted.
“They all waited and allowed children and teachers to die,” said Velma Lisa Duran, whose sister Irma Garcia was one of the two teachers who were killed.
Prosecutors will likely face a high bar to win a conviction. Juries are often reluctant to convict law enforcement officers for inaction, as seen after the Parkland, Florida, school massacre in 2018.
Sheriff’s deputy Scot Peterson was charged with failing to confront the shooter in that attack. It was the first such prosecution in the U.S. for an on-campus shooting, and Peterson was acquitted by a jury in 2023.
At the request of Gonzales' attorneys, the trial was moved about 200 miles (320 kilometers) southeast to Corpus Christi. They argued Gonzales could not receive a fair trial in Uvalde, and prosecutors did not object.
Uvalde, a town of 15,000, still has several prominent reminders of the shooting. Robb Elementary is closed but still stands, and a memorial of 21 crosses and flower sits near the school sign. Another memorial sits at the downtown plaza fountain, and murals depicting several victims can still be seen on the walls of several buildings.
Jesse Rizo, whose 9-year-old niece Jackie was one of the students killed, said even with three-hour drive to Corpus Christi, the family would like to have someone attend the trial every day.
“It’s important that the jury see that Jackie had a big, strong family,” Rizo said.
