The crustaceans were spotted by the passengers as many waited to collect their suitcases and as the carousel moved around, more and more crabs were seen, many holding onto bags, the Daily Mirror newspaper reports.

One of the passengers filmed the strange ordeal of the 'Finding Nemo'-esque escape and it is not known which airport this happened at but some suggest it in New York City.

The crabs appeared to have escaped from the box they were being shipped in as someone was seen with a crate filled with the sea creatures.
