Mantis shrimp

These shrimps pack the largest and fastest punch ever recorded for an animal, each punch weighs in at 60kgs which is about 130pounds. So fast that it boils the water immediately around the area of punch and even sparks should the punch land on a hard object.

I happen to chance across this documentary by David Attenborough 'Fastest claw in the west' while looking for more clips.
