LOL, reminds me of Toy Story.

Get them mad and maybe they will attack the claw with their claws enough to be pulled up that way.

i'd hate to reach in the chute to pull out my fresh, angry, maine lobster.  i guess they do have those rubberbands, but i would still be very cautious.

There are restaurants which let you pay $2 to $5 at a chance to grab a lobster and if you get one, then you keep it.  The best time to do this is when the lobsters are sleeping .....

Not too cool for the lobsters.  Why can't we just think about the lobsters?

Theoretically the lobsters are about to be killed, boiled, and eaten.  I'm thinking a quick game of "catch" is low on the "hurt the lobster's feelings" scale.

Only you have that wrong, as far as I understand... There's no "killed, boiled" -- it's straight from "live" to "boiled" ... as in I believe they throw them in the water still alive...

It's a giant cockroach,  I don't really have a lot of compassion for them.

Besides, they make great bisque...
