"The massive crustacean measures close to one meter (3 feet) in length and weighs more than 4 kg (9 lb).

‘He’s a fantastic specimen and by his size alone he has got to be at least 50 years old,’ said Lindsay Holloway of the Blue Reef aquarium in Portsmouth, southern England where the lobster now lives."

So basically this is the Shaquille O’Neal of lobsters?

Good for the lobster. It would probably taste like crap anyway due to its age.
