The peacock mantis shrimp gets this iconic nickname from their claws—or rather, boxing gloves—which are powerful enough to crack crab shells, split clams, and knock fish dead.

00:00I'm going to introduce to you the rocky Balboa of the reef.
00:09This magnificent beastie is a Peacock Mantis Shrimp.
00:15What really sets these guys apart is their claws, or rather their boxing gloves.
00:22And they use those to beat things to death with.
00:32He can accelerate his club-like claws up to 50 miles an hour faster than you can blink.
00:39This guy could make Mike Tyson look like a little schoolboy.
00:43He's got one of the strongest punches in the animal kingdom.
00:48And that force, that power, is the same as a .22 rifle.
00:54And it's enough to break crab shells, to crack clams, to kill fish dead.
