World's Largest King Crab?

Certainly the largest we have ever seen...

This impressive crustacean is currently holding court at a Welsh market, with a price tag of 75 pounds.

Weighing in at 3kg (that's over 6 pounds to Yanks), the Norwegian Red King Crab measures a staggering 3 feet by 1 foot.

On average, Norwegian red king crabs weigh 4.3kg and are viewed as one of the most outstanding and impressive of the species to serve in restaurants.

   4.3 kilos? I think you need to look at the Tasmanian King Crab because that thing can weigh up to 35 pounds or more.
