Imagine actual Jesus walking in the surface of water rotating his leg like that
#1 believer right here, my kind of miracle
Jesus must be running to saved one of his follower that drowning without faith 😂😂😂
Can't believe he skipped leg day when they hung him on the cross, gotta get his priorities straight
@@Phoenix.SparklesMaria Magdalena didnt skip his 11th leg though!
One more thing. Think about how the apostles would have written that down.
I’m glad I don’t have to go as fast to make it happen. It’s not easy running in sandals.
Jesus!
Holy mollie
It would really ruin your image to break an ankle in the middle of all that.
Finally! We've been waiting bro!
Jesus Christ!!!
Reminds me of the old pilot’s saying: “Helicopters don’t fly, they beat the air into submission.”
Can I beat Uranus into submission?
Fun fact: Jamie Hyneman once proved that he can motorcycle on water at least for a short time and distance until, due to lack of thrust, the motorbike loses too much speed and sinks.
In Top Gear they successfully drove a smowmobile and a dune buggy across a lake. This makes me wonder just how necessary the forward movement is, and whether you could actually slow down and stop by lowering another set of rapidly rotating wheels into the water, but rotating backwards. Or by transitioning from powered waterwalking to buoyancy and back, by spinning the active element out of the water and then gradually lowering it in to start moving.
To learn more google hyneman
I was born and raised in Panama and I saw these lil guys everywhere! the sound they make when they splash on the water is as unique as everything else. Sounds like very quick clapping by the world's tiniest hands haha
That is so cool, I hope I can see these lizards in the flesh some day!
This woman does the best wildlife narration on youtube. Her video on the inland taipan was fascinating
Lizard: My name is Lizard, and I can walk on water!
Surprised friend: Jesus Christ, Lizard!
That's like the joke about the drunk who tries to convince his friends he is Jesus, so he gets them to come with him to the local bar. As soon as he walks in the bartender says, "Jesus Christ! You're here again!?"
We also have animals that can give virgin births. Now we just need to find one that can turn water to wine and we are all set.
We already found a living thing to turn water into wine, yeast. Penicillin from mold heals some of the sick, also vaccines.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is close
Well, one could argue yeast is a sort of "creature"..
Let's then combine them into one creature.
@@Mark-Wilson just give the lizard the auto-brewery syndrome. But you won't like where the alcohol would come out from.
Instantly clicked on the vid lol
Because is Holy
Samee
same lol. there was something about using the word of jesus for a lizard 😂
I clicked after a little hesitation, pondering whether I should go for it or not.
Sames
fun fact, they're called the "jesus christ" lizard because the first person to discover them said "jesus christ" upon seeing this behavior
Babe wake up, another "The Insane Biology of" video just dropped.
Wake up! I hope you'll see the insane biology is not from evolution! ruclips.net/user/liveCFYswvGoaPU?si=D4ZyJd3kYTeDAJr2
Best title ever.
Peter would've never believed it.
Lmfao
And Thomas would have doubted it
Too bad there wasn’t a clip of the lizard running across the water where we could hear how it sounds. I keep thinking it would sound like a rock being skipped across water. Lol
PLAP PLAP PLAP
They're sooo cool! Some crabs also have this "superpower." Our crew found them on the coast of Brazil, where wild waves and cunning predators mean serious survival skills are in order. The Sally Lightfoot crabs adapted to breathe on land and escape eels and octopuses by literally walking on water.
That's amazing! I never heard of this. Looks like a few animals have this amazing ability!
Ich sah eine Doku über die Krabben, die von Oktopoden gejagt werden. Sie fliehen von Stein zu Stein und rennen über das Wasser. Cool.
0:52 Clearly a micro spinosaurus
Clearly.
Imagine if the Spinosaurus itself can do just that
That’s what I thought! Which is why I name mines “Spino”. But the dinosaur that scientist said they look like is a parasaurolophus. I get it, big legs, small arms, crest on head. But still look more of a spinosaurus to me.
love the ATLA reference: "as they are air benders"
I still can't get over the quality and research these videos have...wow what a gem of a channel!!
I used to have one as a pet. They don't make good pets because they're very skittish and very fast.
That’s terrible. I bet you let it free outside cause you couldn’t deal with it.
Interesting info
It’s not just their personalities. ITS THEIR CARE! They need a huge enclosure, big pool for them to soak in, a lots of climbing branches to climb, live plants. I have one and he was 5 months old on 2023 February and how he’s 18 months old on March 2024. Dam he’s big, 2ft long also. Full grown size is 3ft so he’s still growing.
@@TDash-pn4rw3 fucking feet? Geez, how big's that thing
Excellent work as always. (Would’ve appreciated higher resolution footage for this one, though)
Jesus christ lizzard?
So if a lizzard rides a raft it is noah lizzard.
But wait till you guys meet the moses lizard.
I noah lizzard named God
i saw “The Jesus Christ Lizard” and thought this lil guy resurrects every 3 days 😭😭😭
Best series on RUclips!! You should do a video on Cone snails next!!
i adore these series o youtube, they're my favoriete. thank you guys so much
as a gamer, I cannot approve this very nerfed basilisk
from ARK?
@@NorthernReaper Heroes of Might and Magic 3
Just found out about this channel this week and man a g hooked 😂
Love this channel!
There are other lizards than can also run on water to a lesser extent, especially tiny ones, i have personally seen small geckos run strait across a pool.
Thanks a bunch for sharing this with us Big Dog.
Soo invested in the insane biology series, love it❤
Our best intelligent design engineering doesn't even begin to hold a flickering candle to the intelligent design engineering in nature
No intelligent design in nature. Just time, pressure and adaptation
Nature works on the basis of random prototyping that all fail, until one doesn’t! Evolution. Works well when you’ve got a few billion years to iron out the wrinkles.
@jeremylawrence6041
You wrote there is no ID in nature, only pressure and adaptation. .
You are a dreamer, deluded dreamer. Take any body system, its full of design. The transition process from placenta supported fetus to self-sufficient infant is an example of THOUGHTFUL design. The immune system is so complex, we still don't really know how it works. DNA replication and repair is full of chicken and egg impossibilities. How on earth does dumb evolution time and pressure create enzymes that "kmow" how to find errors and trigger a cascade of proteins to cooperate with each other to one to clip, another to remove, another yo replace, and yet another protein to repair? Do you have the slightest idea how mitosis works? How does that complex system of on and off switches arise with no overall purpose and plan? What causes a cell to even want to divide? Pressure? Time? Don't be silly.
It's easy to make your wild claim...impossible to prove.
Nature is perfection since it evolved over hundreds of millions of yrs.
Yeah the designer has to be infinitely intelligent
Channel rocks, I love science Keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!
Love your content ❤
As always, excdllent content!
Love it!! Thanks
I found the continual use of "walk/walking on water" extremely irritating. The basilisk can hardly even be said to run on water, as it relies on a rapidly cycling paddling motion to propel itself.
This is a brilliant channel.
We have the brown basilisk here in florida. Had 13 of them in the yard earlier this year. Very easy to catch at night just like the veiled chameleons are. But they are only around for a few months then they disapear. And come back the.following year.
Followed instructions perfectly but still sank
must have skipped leg day
9:50 sooo in the realm of possibility with bionics, gotcha, can't wait for the 200 meter over water dash at the Olympics in 50 years
Very good information
Interesting, but it’s unclear at what percentage of body-above-waterness we switch to calling it walking on water from swimming.
This lizard might not kill you with a look, but that side eye is judging the hell out of you. 😮
I find your videos interesting and informative. Much appreciation to the work you are doing. ❤️
I have a little request though. Please do a video on the bowhead whale. There is not enough information about it and the available information is not explained with your amount of detail and precision. Thanks in advance.
In the desert there are lizards that move the same way on the loose sand. They are neat to watch.
Suggestion for the next animal: cockroaches!
As much as we all hate those little buggers, we have to admit: they're kind of amazing, biologically speaking.
This is true! Do you think people would watch a video on it?
@@realscience absolutely! There are so many curiosities about them! Like: will they really survive a nuclear apocalypse? Why are they so hard to kill? Why do they fly directly at us? Do they know we're scared of them?!
Also, a lot of people don't really know their life cycle, preferred diet and habits. This is all interesting stuff to know, even if we hate them!
"Know your enemy" XD
Loveeee, can there be an insane biology of the octopus next 😁
Yesss, my favorite 🖤
To be honest if Jesus Christ was capable of going the speeds to be capable of doing this I'd believe in God too
Rango adapted amazingly to its hostile environment
i love your content
I remember back when I did a project in science class on these little guys in like elementary, always thought they were the coolest
you forgot to mention the importance of the surface tension of the water next to the movement of the “jesus lizards”
This animal can’t walk on water, but it can sprint on water
Basilisk! Love these little guys!
*Humans finally get back to the moon*
Nasa: 'get the pool we will be jesus'
Astronaut: '?'
Hey I’ve been following your channel for some years now and I would like for you to uncover one of my favorite animals the crocodile or any type of crocodilian basically showing off their incredible ability to adapt and you know the other basics and also uncover roaches I know it’s crazy but if you don’t know already roaches are actually pretty interesting….just a thought have a great day I enjoy your videos a lot:)
I thought water striders relied on surface tension not buoyancy.
Please do a video on the flying lizard, Draco Dussumieri.
Immediately watched this
Could you do this sort of video on the Amur Tiger?
Did the person who discovered it just say 'jesus christ' look at this thing 😂
Yeah I think so lol
May you make a video about the insane biology of giraffe please🙏? I am a really big fan of the nature and the animals, and I am always watching youtube channels like your.
"Hey jesus what are you doing? Youre cycling on the water"
Absolutely beautiful creature! In South America, you say? I am in South America!! What a blessing, now I only need to travel to admire this beauty!
It WALKED on water, right in front of me in La Fortuna! It was quite amazing
The fun thing about water is that if you hit it hard enough it's functionally solid
I don't think it's walking as you put it, it's more like running on water.
"They generally lay motionless".....
[SHAKES HEAD]🤣
Jesus Christ before human Evolution:
your voice will always be my Relaxing Anthem ☺️
2:30 I live in Southeast Asia and we have a water running lizard here too.
A lizard that walks on water, Jesus Christ😮😮😮
Jesus Christ!
Basilisk!
How are you
(Why are you)
Doing this?
Basilisk!
Superstar!
Running on water will take you far!
beautiful
12:53 I’m sorry this is disturbing nightmare fuel
This reminds me of the first time I watched the Wild Kratts episode on basilisks 😊
Thanks!
So I was rewatching the original Avatar: The Last Airbender, and they use these very lizards as mounts in one episode. As always, I'm pretty impressed by the research those animators did.
You know reasonably powerful remote controlled cars can cross a good stretch of water easily if they are going fast enough.
Grebes can also run on water without using wings when courting
I need an animation of Jesus running like that like that lizard
Around my hometown in the isthmus of Oaxaca, Mexico. We call them "Pasa rios", literally "River crossers"
LIZARD-SPIDER-JELLYFISH ROBOT!? I LOVE SCIENCE
I saw this lizard when I was a child. Fr thought I was hallucinating
in Philippines we called it as "ibid" the most hilarious lizard you can ever find in the country.
It's weird to think about that they are basically showing us a different form of what it takes us to figure out moving from land to air. They move on top of water. That place between 2 states of matter. Air, water, land. All different densities with different types of air resistance, drag, lift, fluid dynamics, resistance, etc. Etc. It's really interesting to think we have these meeting points between 2 layers of matter. (Fresh water meets salt water/air meets land/ different layers of air in our atmosphere and where it meets space/ then there's a ton of different types of land that changes a ton of factors in the movement across that land)
Imagine someone with no legs watching this video. All the cruel mockery. 😢
Oh god Azula is coming. She and her girls look pissed!!
It's not a water "strider" it's a "Water Skipper!" Because of the way they move! A stride is how you walk down the sidewalk you take strides or continuous steps! These insects don't do that they SKIP across the water by "flexing" their legs and springing themselves across the surface of the water.
I hear cartoon sound effects when this lizard runs on water🤣
Freaking beautiful they are!
Yeah but is he gunna try and sell me car insurance?
Love this Little fellow
You should do a video on flying fish!
With that name, it must be a Superstar!
i thought they needed a straight line trajectory, but mf just hoops onto the pond then runs over the surface screen, what a lizard!!!!!
I also thought they needed a running start, but he just leaps the human equivalent of like 20 feet into the water and literally breaks into a dead sprint lol
My idiot brain: oh wow another Real Science video already? I just watched the emperor penguin episode yesterday!
Algorithm: 😈😈😈😈
From water to wine, but first check out my sick moves 😎
Just title not thumbnail 😂😂😂 and I am here.
Does anybody else remember the educational flash game where you had to build one of these lizards and change the foot size etc to get it to run across the water?
Oh, the joy of the Internet. This rather looks a run across water. Not walking
