Yeah the crabs are pretty hectic in Qld, just a heads up........ even shaving off all your pubes doesn't get rid of the mo'fo's. ummm,,eerrrrrr,,,so I was told.
he's got the crab on a 2 foot long stick, holding it up towards camera, so that hands & stick hidden by crab.
In that case you'd see the shadow of the crab on him, a lot further away than the shadow actually is. Looks like the camera was a small point and shoot or a phone, with the flash slightly to the left of the lens. There's enough separation of the flash and the lens to see a shadow on the right of objects (like his left leg on the grass, or the crab's left claw on his leg).
Interestingly TinEye hasn't seen this image before, so it hasn't really done the rounds yet.
I once caught a measly 45cm snapper on a charter boat. Not impressed enough with it so when the camera was whipped out I held it at arm's length and viola! I had proof of catching a thumping 80cm snapper. I'm suspecting the same foul play in this pic.
I think it's perspective and a big muddy. To me it looks like they are on a slope and the muddy has walked up hill towards the camera, giving the illusion of being much larger. Grass blades are different size under the muddy.

Yep +1 but still I would love to turn up at a NT mud crab race with him in a wheelbarrow and let him run riot
