*AWESOME* video. Had no idea that could happen.

Thanks for posting it, Greg.

Very interesting! I found it interesting to watch starfish move over the ice that had formed and killed other starfish. I would have thought that they would sense the temperature difference and move around it or away from it.

Maybe they were trying to eat the dead ones...

I kept wanting to yell, "Run Away, you Fools!" at the starfish.

But they just don't listen...nor the crabs.
