Why do we boil lobsters live, and do they feel pain?

It turns out that dead lobsters start becoming poisonous with in 25 minutes of death and that is why we are not allowed to sell dead lobsters.

My Dad had a seafood market and we kept the lobsters alive in huge vats for that reason.

It also turns out that lobsters feel pain and there is no good way to kill one painlessly.

This video is long but interesting.
