Control[edit]

May I suggest that fast headcrabs take control of their victims through their extended legs? Looking closely at the image of the fast zombie, it looks like the headcrab implants it's legs (especially hind legs) deep into the victim's body and nervous system and manipulates it through this mechanism (as opposed to direct brain access).

Hm, that's a possibility, I never thought of it that way before. You can add it to the article as conjecture if you like. --MattyDienhoff 05:00, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
I'd like to see Kleiner debeak one of those! Ha ha! --65.184.79.124 22:44, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
It says that a dead Fast Headcrab appears in 'Water Hazard'. Where? I can't remember seeing one and i've played that game hundreds of time (literally). --Donovan-j-charlie 04:19, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
If you visit the so-called All-Knowing Vortigaunt (which I've always thought to be a silly designation since he says the same things every other one does, he's just more forthcoming than most), you can see that he's roasting a fastie over the fire (and a few more are scattered nearby). I don't remember, but it's possible the crabs the Vortigaunt chefs are preparing are also fasties. --MattyDienhoff «talk» 05:32, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
Oh, I didn't think the AKV counted as canon, I thought it was just an Easter Egg, does this mean the Chumtoad is canon? --Donovan-j-charlie 17:02, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
No, just remembered, that's Gearbox, Valve says Gearbox isn't canon. Why can't they just say Blue Shift and Opposing Force is canon? Is it because of the Gonomes? --Donovan-j-charlie 17:02, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

FH's Poision[edit]

In game, don't the Fast Headcrabs inject Gordon with a dealy toxin that drops health to 1%? I think that should be somehow put in. - BigOz (not registered)

Only the Poison Headcrabs do that. SteveZombie 00:41, April 10, 2010 (UTC)
