Australians are the kings and queens of chill.

A weekend trip to Christmas Island went off the rails as soon as the family started cooking dinner.

Coconut crabs don’t rate the nickname “robber crabs” for nothing.

Crabs were climbing up chairs and table legs trying to steal a bite to eat… but did the Aussie family flip out and run for their boat?
No.

They popped the tops on a few and calmly batted the crabs off their plates.

River's world..... 
Christmas Island won’t be on any itinerary of mine. Nope.

I like them, and would be perfectly happy to have them crash my cookout.

If I were a crab and got batted off a plate of food, it would make me so crabby, I’d want to bounce a coconut off the offender’s coconut.

I don’t know which is worse coming out of the water: huge living carnivorous crabs or dead-looking dolls. Both have the potential to create nightmares for many years to come.

I think they were slightly outnumbered for that to be prudent.
