I just walked out

This was taken in Besant Nagar beach, Chennai, India while I had gone there for a photoshoot with my friends. I had seen this crab lying motionless along the sea and wrongly assumed that it was a toy that had washed ashore. I bent down and was about to touch it when my better sense kicked in. Somehow I decided to move away and a small stick thrown near it made the crab to react. Then I realized how big this guy is and was lucky to have my fingers intact. Fishermen who live near the sea told me about the power of their claws.
