The pistol shrimp can snap its claw so fast it creates a bubble that momentarily reaches the temperature of the sun and stuns its prey with a shockwave.

Have you ever wondered what a shrimp sounds like? Take a listen...this pistol shrimp apparently makes one of the loudest noises in the sea and it's been named by researchers after Pink Floyd. The Synalpheus pinkfloydi (yes really) can use its claw to create a noise louder than a gunshot and is powerful enough to stun a small fish. | BBC Breakfast
