Shrimp out of water

Anyone seen a shrimp climb out of the water before? I just caught one on top of a floating algae mat at the surface. It was all the way out of the water for a bit, enough that at first I thought it was a bug that fell in the tank. I got a real quick video of it but I spooked it when I tried to get a better angle.

I have never seen it, but I know they'll climb out of tanks. I have a rack of ten gallon tanks, four on each level, I put shrimp in the two end tanks, and now there are shrimp in each tank. I have never moved plants or anything between the tanks. I think that shrimp have climbed up the airline tubing that goes in each tank and made their way into the neighboring tanks.
