New Species Of Hairy Chested Crab Named "The Hoff"

Don't hassle the Hoff.... because he might pinch you. 

In scientific celebrity news, a new species of crab has been discovered off the coast of Antarctica. The rather dashing little fellow looks to be covered in hair, so clearly science was dead on by naming the creature "The Hoff".

According to HuffPo, "According to the BBC, the crab has long hairs on its abdomen, inspiring a Hasselhoff comparison. The creature was one of many new species discovered by British scientists exploring deep-sea vents in the Antarctic. Others spotted included a pale octopus and new starfish."

There you have it Hoff, one more thing to be proud of.
