INSPIRED BY A LOST SEA LEGEND.
There once was a tale of a broken-hearted sailor Robert McCrae who, when the Kraken surfaced, didn’t run. He stood his ground and threw himself on it.
The fight lasted 3.2 seconds. Long enough to prove courage outruns fear but nothing outruns The Beast.
Hence, to “throw yourself on the Kraken” became shorthand for total surrender: reckless, irreversible, and violently in love.
