When I first saw this clip I was amazed. It looks like magic to me, but after a little explain science manages to prove how this phenomena works. As this video explains, the pistol shrimp manages to snap it's claw so hard that it create bubbles in the water that reach approximately 4700 degrees Celsius. This creates such a strong blow that it knocks out it's prey from a distance. Check out this clip and watch the pistol shrimp take out its prey with a simple snap of it's claw.
This is exactly how mom's radar works from 4000 miles away :)
