Superswarm (2009)
When animals swarm they create a super-organism of incredible power. They can attack our food supplies, immobilise our transport systems, undermine our cities and even attack our energy supplies. They can stop us in our tracks. Using state-of-the-art photography, Superswarms reveals the collective intelligence behind the animal invasions, and how man fights back.

reminder that the mantis has one of the best eyes in the insect world, he was seeing all that in 4k
So he saw his death in 4K 🤣
Lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
😂😂😂💯
He literally got caught in 4k
Imagine eating a granola bar then your granola bar calls for reinforcements and they all rip your head off.
No. Just... if this were Reddit, I'd say "Take your upvote and get the fuck out."
But this is RUclips. So take your like and get the fuck out
🤣🤣🤣🤣😅😂😂
This post was made by the living food gang
Im eatin a Chewy granola bar at this moment & its worth being attacked by granolas
Sounds like something out of Farside.
In terms of scale, this is pretty much the equivalent of you going hunting, and you catch a squirrel, but then all of a sudden you’re swarmed by squirrels until they literally bite your head off
And theres a few dog sized squirrels that have massive jaws that just rip you in half
You got 100 likes because your 💯.
pretty sure I've had a nightmare like that
You fucked with squirrels Morty!
But imagine squirrel colonies who could defeat an entire pack of wolves.
Mantis didn't seem too bothered being eaten alive. He was just like "ah well, my future wife would have done the same thing to me anyways"
no, it was pinned, those ants KNEW exactly what they are doing.
it had one chance to run.
one large ant is more than enough for a full grown mantis to be immobilised.
they know to bite nerves and they are very strong too
Do you know what a joke is
You live by the Mantis code, you die by the Mantis code.
That's why ppl like you got picked on in HS
why does everyone have an @ before their username?
I'm so glad that ants are the size they are
EDF: tell me about it.
if ants would get bigger they would get crushed under their own weight.
@@Luc-1991 It could adapt. Other insects got really huge hundreds of millions of years ago when the atmosphere was richer in oxygen.
@@Raison_d-etre I don't see a reason why it would happen tho. And even if they would get bigger they wouldn't be very strong so i wouldn't worry too much.
@@Luc-1991 It wouldn't happen now, because we've bacteria that digest wood.
Props to the ant who filmed inside of the nest!
haha
I guess that's Ant-Man's part time job.
The praying mantis head was actually a spy cam
You’re dumb af it wasn’t the ant cause ants can’t film. Lmfao I’m just meming but for real how tf do they record the ants lmao
The Ant’s last name is Snowden. 😎
why is nobody talking about the millipede at the beginning, like
*evolves to become poisonous so it doesn't get eaten*
ants: *slaughter it anyways*
Yea I didn't quite understand that. Is it poisonous to eat, or is it just a threat when it's alive? If it's the latter than there's no need to bury him in the first place.
@@Themurderin its both. if alive, the millipede endangers the convoi by distracting it and blocking its path, and if they kill i and dont bury it, its possible some smaller ants without the good sensors still carry it back to the nest, possibly killing the larvae.
I was more surprised at the fact that it flipped over so easily. Bruh you have a million fuckin legs how do you trip? You did the one thing I thought you had under control.

Take your time and Dig the hole first. Lime, rocks, concrete then cover completely. Have some old leaves to dump on the spot so they can’t see the fresh dirt.
Unfortunately, you’ll probably get caught anyway, just too much forensics and technology to overcome now days.

For REAL.
Sure, but let me see you get that bull, haha.

The mantis seemed fairly relaxed about the proceedings.
He was like "ah well, gotta take the good with the bad"

He got confused and wasn't sure if he was eating or being eaten!
One minute your chillin out, having a snack, the next minute you're being decapitated. Such is life.

@Vaelthyr from a movie called ratatouille I think
It's amazing that ants actually know how to identify poison insects and dispose of them. How could insect intelligence process something like that? It's really amazing.
Ant intelligence is weird. Think of ants not as individuals, but more like each ant as a nerve cell, able to send signals to the colony. These signals dictate how the ants perceive and react to the world around them. An individual ant is going to be killed and picked off by the mantis, but by releasing chemicals and pheromones upon its death, it creates a response in the swarm that tells soldier ants “threat here, eliminate it”. Basically the entire colony is one big brain, with individuals being small sensory receptors that process information and react to that info accordingly
@@myrmiciex1889 I get, but to do such advanced things such as recognizing what poison is (let alone recognizing which food sources are poison) and recognizing the need to safely dispose of poison food sources to protect everyone else is almost human-like.
I was Thinking the same thing
@@TheStapleGunKid ikr, plus they don't just dispose of it, they actually grab mud and bury it so that future/other ants don't get miscommunicated and get poisoned, not knowing which poisonous insect the pheromones are alerting them of!!! Astounding!
@@myrmiciex1889 Yes, we watched the video.

That reaction to the poisonous insect was incredible, ants are truly impressive when it comes to their intelligence
It *bugs* me that they implied the millipede was an "insect". It is an arthropod for sure, but it is no insect.
They are so intelligent they can be confused into crawling in a circle until they die
It’s not really intelligence. More like instinctual reactions to chemical signals.
@@MaskOfCinder Pretty much, they're as intelligent as a flow chart. Our smart phones are probably at the stage where they are can perform more calculations per second.
@@MaskOfCinder It's a swarm intelligence. They're... uhm, different, than ours. Like a set or collection of algorithms forming a mesh of independent behavior patterns that work in tandem, thanks to evolution spanning millions upon millions of years. Swarm intelligences are interesting in terms of emergent phenomena. But to anyone else reading this, no it's no substrate for consciousness. Consciousness requires more centralized control and a more clear hierarchical structure of function, which swarm intelligences don't allow. One behavior pattern doesn't override others via feedback systems in a swarm intelligence, which is something we know is required for consciousness to arise. But intelligence can exist without consciousness, so there's that.

It was not even able to kill the ant. If you look closely, mantis had to throw it. Ant either stung or bit.

"There are three kinds of ants in a colony: The queen, the female workers, and males. The queen and the males have wings, while the workers don't have wings. The queen is the only ant that can lay eggs. The male ant's job is to mate with future queen ants and they do not live very long afterwards."
Dead Ant: Need back up
Ants : He killed Marty.... Cut his head off Bois.
is that a refrences to a movie ? or u just made it up casue itn felt funny to me
It would more like "Martha". All worker and soldier ants are sterile females - indeed, that's the case for pretty much all social insects. There's the queen who can lay eggs, one or more males whose sole purpose is to mate with the queen, and the rest of the colony are either sterile females or would-be queens.

They had to bring the mantis down. Especially if the driver ants are transporting their queen. Her life would have be in serious danger, and if she dies, the entire colony dies with her. She is the heart and lifeblood of her entire family.

I got curious about something: I was under the impression that Praying Mantises not only had a very quick attack speed, but were also very mobile (I thought they could fly short distances or at least jump long distances). I wonder if this one couldn't move before the ants swarmed it, or if it made the worst decision of its short life by underestimating the ants.
I imagine it thinking something along the lines of: "Oh, one of them climbed on me, but it's no biggie; I can still eat one or two more before it becomes troublesome" quickly followed by: "I've made a terrible mistake."; or "I calculated the risks, but man, I sure am bad at math!"
I was wondering why it didn’t just escape lol, suicide by ant.
Praying Mantis was a paid actor.
@@datcrazymongoose While the world of animal docs are very shady, I've seen my share fair of ant action while traveling South America. Follow a group of ants and you're bound to see many deaths over the course of just a few hours. Also, Mantis are incredibly brazen hunters - they're known to take on creatures much larger than themselves and end up getting killed fairly often. A Mantis underestimating the might of an ant swarm seems likely.
It definiely did not feel the danger from the ants. It thought it's just some food coming straight to the mouse :)
Dude, I saw the same happening with a insect in my yard some months ago. I have a pepper plant and some ants enjoy farming aphids on it. I saw a weird insect with a long nozzle eating one of those ants. One ant approached it and it jumped to the next leaf, then other ant grabbed it's leg, and then other, and other, and other. It could just fly away, but for some unknown reason, it decided to stay there and die.
