As is often the case with videos like this, very little is known about the origins of the clip, the circumstances surrounding the recording or exactly when it was taken.

All we know is that it was originally posted up on Reddit by a user named 'u/fit_then_fat'.The footage itself shows a dog being spooked by what looks like a crab-like creature (described as a 'humanoid') that scuttles across the ground in an eerie, unnatural manner.

It would be fair to regard this video with a particularly large pinch of salt, especially given the potential for it to be a hoax created either using computer graphics or some sort of puppetry.

It's also possible that the clip shows an actual person performing a crab walk.
