Fun Fact

When a snapping shrimp opens its claw it is one of the fastest movements recorded in the animal world. At 30,000 rpm it creates a water jet with a speed of 100 km/hr that creates a cavitation by causing water to vaporize and a vapor bubble to collapse. This generates a 200 dB bang that the shrimp can use to stun or even kill prey with. For more information go to Snapping Shrimp Information.
