Except in the mad scramble a crabl can be left without a shell, leading to certain death. Make of that what you will.

How can this happen, if they all came with shells to begin with, and they can each only take one shell? Do they somehow end up with one crab too big for the remaining shell?

Because it’s usually to large crabs duking it out for the larger shell. When one of them inevitably loses, all the other crabs that are lined up, by size, no less, immediately ditch their shells for the next size up. Leaving behind the smallest shell for a large crab. I got to see this first hand at a beach in Mexico when I was a kid. I had no clue what was going on with all these crabs lined up from large to small, it was so cool to watch. But sad too.

Lmao imagine this happening with humans and Zucc or Musk ends up in some dilapidated house in Eastern Europe.

Yeah, this actually sounds fine to me. Since they’re entirely self-made men who acquired their wealth through their own hard work and gumption, it’s only a minor setback.

Sad for the crab, but happy news for a seagull or octopus or something.

That would be okay too, let’s have the MTV Cribs guys duke it out and then everyone else gets a fitting home

It’s not always a perfect lineup and you get two or three fighting for a shell (not necessarily the largest), and they can’t go back to their old shell because it’s now taken.
