Do they just not want somecrab standing on top of them? Is it involuntary?

Its actually not true as far as why they’re doing it. It isnt to make sure the other crab doesn’t get out first, its because crabs are dumb and dont know to work together to get out easier. They just flail their legs and try to climb out, sometimes it pulls another crab down accidently.

They do however very easily climb out of buckets, don’t let the old saying make you think otherwise.
