STUNG by a Bulldog Ant!

- Mark Vins is rolling up his sleeve to enter the sting zone with the dreaded Bulldog Ant!
Since the Bullet Ant sting no other insect has been requested more for a sting test than Australia’s Bulldog Ant, aka jumping jack ant. Armed with massive jaws and a stinger filled with formic acid, these ants attack in swarms and are avoided at all costs by locals throughout Australia. Tales of their stings are legendary and reach far from the golden coasts of OZ.
Will this jumping terror live up to the hype or fall down the ranks of the insect sting pain index?

Well, your arm had one of the strongest naturally occurring organic acids injected into it. Formic acid isn't a joke. The after effects are basically a chemical burn under your skin.
thats probably why it took so long to heal...my arm is still a bit discolored around the sting site even today
@@BraveWilderness dam
Nahhh
WWE Dradman? Like The Undertaker?
@@BraveWilderness respect! 😂
Mark’s got such a great on screen personality. It’s amazing to think he spent many years behind the camera. He practically matches Coyote’s charisma and enthusiasm
Can you do a video on the ant lion
@@aaronsnacks6128 The difference is mark is a bit better at not screaming and rolling on the ground XD.
@@liamfisher7178 Coyote exaggerates it a but too really show for you to not go near these creatures because of how dangerous they are
@@liamfisher7178this guy hasn't taken on the worst of the worst like coyote hes just doing what's left over!
Wait why isn't coyote here!?
Her : he's probably out cheating 😭
Him :
😂
Him while getting stung by a bulldog ant hes thinking shes probably out there cheating. Her: getting her booty hole stung by dudes lol
The male ant: She’s probably out cheating.
Her:
I just feel like we should give mark the credit he deserves. I've been watching the channel for years. Mark has come a long ways as far as getting up close and personal with the stings and other things that coyote does. Great job Mark!👏
You're a champ, Mark. Cool to see you step up to do these challenges. That's a gnarly sting, dude.
thank you thank you!
That must hurt I am now scared of my house it’s INFESTED with ants OUCH 7:35

Yeah
A real legend he is
my mans gonna be the next ant man

Mark: Coyote. Why do you always get me in these situations? 🌵
*Also Mark* : I’m about to get stung by the Bullet Ant 🐜
lol
😂💀💀💀💀💀
Lol
@SpecklesTeeV What’s the time stamps for these?
@@BraveWilderness relatable
Director: You okay?
Mark: *that sounds familiar*
Its said to be one of the most painful stings because unlike most of the things in Australia, you actually live long enough to feel the pain.
i like how he’s keeping the coyote peterson tradition alive, getting stung by ants and stuff, but it just doesn’t feel the same without coyote…………
I just notice coyote coyote is gone.... Oh man... :( What happens to coyote man
@@krisallen4788he retired, but he’s still in most Brave Wilderness videos
I think this guy has a more genuine reaction
@@vannlo355 coyote got stung by the most painful stings known to man so excuse him if you think his reactions were over the top 😂
@@mrsumptuous9329
I'd rather get stung by 100 bullet ants than 1 single bulldog ant lol
this dude is the GOAT. completely shocked that there is anyone besides coyote that is willing to take stings. Keep it up 👍🏽
Theres alot of people on youtube who do it and their reactions much more authentic than cayotes who seems to play it up for the cameras
If I knew this would make me hundreds of thousands of dollars, i would have done this many years ago 😂
@@steelflexy ok
@@mattwash5338 you wrotebyou were "shocked" there are people who take stings like CP. The dude informed you there are...its not uncommon and CP does exaggerate his reactions. 🤷🏽♂️
@@anthonyadams3138 why u mad
Bulldog ants are my favorite. I'd never wanna encounter one in person, but I love their head shape and how they can actually JUMP!
I remember seeing them from monster bug wars. Still sad that they didn’t continue the show
They are very common in Australia. I'd play cricket in our driveway and they'd sometimes get on our feet. No stings thankfully, but they weren't something we'd be overly concerned about.
I live in Perth (where this video was shot) and while in the urban areas we never see them, I've seen a few when I was camping. It always astounded me how fast they move for their size, a good half a meter a second I'd say. The ones I saw never jumped and I'm pretty sure only a select few can but you can easily tell how super soldier esque they are compared to typical ants regardless. They usually hunt alone too, basically the epitome of quality over quantity
they are more commonly known in most areas of Australia as bull ants rather than bulldog and most species cannot jump. The ones that do typically often referred to locally as jumper or hopper ants.
@@dgmt1 we have bull ants in FL. Their legs are half as long with thicker heads and bodies.
bulldog ant: **returns home**
other ants: "you alright, steve?"
More like,
Bulldog and: returns home,
Other ants: "did you successfully kill him?"
More like Stephanie as it's a female
Got bitten/stung by these plenty of times as a kid. We used to stir up the nests to watch them pour out and would sometimes miss them when they got close. Pro tip: If you wanna scare the crap out of your friend, tickle the back of their leg with some grass when they arent watching and are concentrating on the ants
[Takes notes]
Thank you.
This is an angry shrimp.
This is a legendary comment
Telling even by the appearance of the insect, you know it means business. Great video Mark
I’m genuinely glad to see mark finaly step up show what he’s worth, mad respect
I'll never forget accidentally digging up one of those nests as a kid, those ants are quick and jump and will get you in ways you don't expect. 30 years later I still haven't matched that pain.
The family of ant the Myrmecia is a throwback from early ant evolution before pheromone based teamwork evolved. Primitive ants often had to hunt without teamwork and hence the strong mandibles and strong simple (formic acid) sting.
Imagine the story the ant told his buddies when he got back.
"I was abducted by aliens!" 😂
as a kid growing up in australia I can confirm that this was extremely painfull
Ouch u felt that?
The guys at Brave Wilderness literally take these insect bites for us to be cautious, respect from the Hamsters
im a simple man, i see sting video, i click.
i like this
Me too
Wow, that sure is one intimidating ant. Doesn’t surprise me that it’s found in Australia. You also make a great presentor, Mark!
Thank you!
Intimidating is precisely this insect! Ouch!! Australia is just a nightmare of a place! 😳😬🤢🤭 Em...nah. No thanks. They can keep that country to themselves. 😫😖😂
@Brave Wilderness mark the way it stung you I could feel the pain
@@near5148 it actually doesn’t hurt that much i remember getting stung a few times when i was younger it feels alot like if you were to pinch yourself with a pair of tweezers for like 20 minutes.
Yeah I’ve been bitten by these is Sydney, they’re not so bad. Wouldn’t say they’re enjoyable, though - haha
The way Marc barely stirred that twig inside the ant hill and the ants came running out so fast. That is so cool and also so scary.
The terrifying thing about this that I feel like people could potentially overlook, this pain and reaction all are from a single ant. If you were to be swarmed by them, I can't imagine you'd be able to do much
Hey, coyote seems different
Yeah .....good point 🤔
mark is probably the best subsitute teacher you can have when coyote peterson isnt there taking the stings like a beast
I loved the way it just jumped up on the tool like "lets do this" 😆 🤣 😂
Maybe use in a Home Depot commercial.
@@Acein3055 😆 perfect
Respect this guy for trying the most dangerous insects for us to see how hurt it was
Im loving mark! Hes really entertaining and to see him keep the channel thriving is really pleasing to me. This channel was a sentiment of my childgood so to be able to come back is amazing.
As an Aussie lad who’s spent a lot of time wandering around the bush since childhood, this is one of a handful of species that I know of and from personal experience not the worst one to get tagged by, we used to stir up these ones as kids and 10+ stings from them never learnt my lesson because I still stir them up as a 30 year old
What a stubborn guy you are....
@@dangerdoggo4984 lol
@@dangerdoggo4984 Nah, he's just an Aussie. We're not the brightest lot when it comes to interacting with our dangerous wildlife.
but have you ever gone to a party got drunk and sat on a dirt mound and had them crawl inside your boardies and decide to sting all at once, cause im pretty sure i hold the record for taking my pants off and jumping in the pool to downing half a bottle of jack, couldnt sit or walk properly for a week, and to top it off while swiming at scarborough beach the following weekend i had 3 blue bottles sting me two off one wave and one on the beach while i was rolling in pain, got pain?
Aussies are built different
I really love how this video gives off the same vibe as all the Coyote Peterson videos. I still get as invested as i did when i was a kid. Mark is doing such a good job.
What was that, 5 years ago? Lol I didn’t know coyote Peterson really been doing it for that long 😅
A kid? This channel is not thst old. You're still a kid lmao
@@XxEvanxX97 i was 14 when this channel started and now I’m 23. So yes, I also remember watching these videos as a kid☺️
@@mariejohnsen9555I remember being 9 watching these I’m currently 18 so yeah a lot of my childhood I watched this channel
@@XxEvanxX97the channel is almost 10 years old.
Mark: "one of the scariest looking ants out there"
Me: "It's kinda cute"
Actually is VERY cute!! Pause at 2:45 for example, and you'll see.
@@Entity_BlackRed777Hell no. How can you call this thing "cute"? It looks terrifying!
That made my heart jump a 1000x's faster watching the sting then getting stung by that intimidating little thing that you call an ant. 😮
I'm glad this series isn't over, I'm crazy curious about insects in general and you're carrying the torch to spread that fascination to a whole new generation. ❤️😊
Been waiting for this one for a while. They bloody hurt, I can tell you that much. I used to mess with the nests when I was a kid. Bad mistake I got covered and the pain was insane. Good to see you’s back in aus. Love the channel and wish it was around when I was a kid 😂😅
Your a psycho bruh I get it's a kid thing but why
Based off your username, bet you're a living legend in your area lol.
i have been watching this channel since day one man yall can we please appreciate how much this mark and coyote peterson do to entertain us
We’ll they are also raking in the cash and growing their brand and business, so it’s not all for us haha
But yeah I do appreciate watching them for years!
I would sometimes come across these guys while bushwalking with my dad in the Royal National Park. They do not care if you're 1000x bigger than them, they will follow you with absolutely no fear, it's actually quite cute 😂
Me, too. I came across Coyote and Mark and crew once in Arizona. They had absolutely NO fear of me.
@@bgwrkr I think he was talking about the ants 😂
@@bgwrkr Yeah.
LOL @@bgwrkr
It’s crazy to see how muted Marks Reactions are compared to Coyote’s reactions. It just goes to show how each of these stings affects every person differently.
We get lots of them around where I work on the south-east of Aus (although they're pretty much black, still over an inch long in some cases) and I always pay them respect. Very hard working ants that will chase you around if you decide to bother them. A bit of a trip when you realise that they can easily spot you from a little bit of distance when most ants don't pay you mind unless you stand in them.
It’s weird to say but any day where Mark enters the StingZone™, is a good day for the viewers lol. Thanks for enduring the pain so all of us can avoid it. 💪🏿
Mark handled it better than coyote with this one. Big ups 👍
I think coyote used to add a little bit to it
Let’s see him this calm after getting stung by a bullet ant
@@Sirlance87 this guy added a lot to it lol- Bull ants aren't even that bad 😂
One of the coolest ants in the ant world. Can jump, has menacing jaws, great vision, and painful sting!
I always love the Sting series on this channel, Mark and Coyote do an amazing job with their videos. 😍
Man that stinger was in there for a while, what a trooper. I couldnt imagine enduring a sting that long, i bet the burn was unbearable
That ant probably got it's stinger stuck for a while, similar to what happened to Coyote when he took the bullet ant challenge.
Thank you for doing our request 🐜
the brave crew asks, the brave crew gets! :)
@@BraveWilderness my son and I absolutely love your videos! Very interesting and educational 🌺🐜
You guys keep finding something new, I didnt even know these ants existed
the comments have been asking for this one for a couple years now, I didnt know about them either until that started to happen!
You guys are killing it with the video production quality! 🔥
It's only rated as a 1.5 on the sting index. I think when he initially got stung, he realized that the sting wasn't what it was cracked up to be, so he left it in there for over 30 seconds to get a more painful effect.
I like how theyre keeping the tradition of saying “you okay?”
Fantastic video, Bull Ants are quite the amazing power houses of the ant kingdom. Also as someone who is an antkeeper in Aus I just wanted to clarify that this was a colony of Myrmecia Gratiosa (judging by size/colors), video identified these as Myrmecia Brevinoda which are larger and a dark maroon color. Nonetheless worthy specimens for a sting test 😂
Also Myrmecia Brevinoda is only found in the eastern states and he said they were near Perth in WA 😅 Gratiosa is mainly found in WA though so I'm 100% with you! Fascinating creatures, I stopped to look at a nest but moved (quickly) away when I realised the ground where I was standing was covered in bull ants haha
Lol
Can i ask you two questions?: what is the most venomous type of bull ant?
And what is the biggest type of bull ant?
Thanks
@@akrilla5929 No worries, mostly easy questions to answer. So for the Guineas Book of world records Myrmecia Pyriformis is considered the most dangerous ant in the world. Thus it would be safe to assume its the most venomous of Australia's Myrmecia, however a close second would probably be Myrmecia Pilosula (Jack Jumper) as it stings people more frequently and causes anaphylaxis in people yearly.
As for largest bull ant, that easily goes to Myrmecia Brevinoda, however since bull ants can be monomorphic it means they can vary in sizes. So the largest Pyriformis queen can be larger than the smallest Brevinoda queen, but the largest Brev will be much larger than the largest Pyriformis queen.
@@jordanverhoeven3156 thank you
I never thought i see the day where Coyote would be in the position to ask Mark if he is Ok.
did anyone realise that they travel across the world to make these videos what legends
Nah I thought every video they ever made was in Cincinnati.
She’s like “You really want this? Why!?”
Welcome to what my childhood was like during primary school in Victoria, Aus. We had nests all over our school grounds, we'd all get bitten at least once a week no joke!
Always wondered how they'd compare to Bullet Ants. No idea how happy I am to see this. Thankfully haven't been stung by one since leaving primary school, great lesson learnt to not run over the mounds for fun, and poke sticks into the holes.
Its good that Coyote took a small break and now Mark is doing it
Why did he take a break?
Sometimes in his videos he’s not in them so he basically took just a small break and now Mark is in this video
*And the generations of stings continue..*
But really, Mark your just to awesome to continue this series that I thought was long gone because coyote left.
I wanna see mark climb the pain index 😂
Love to see you try taking on a "Velvet Ant" (the Cow Killer) and allow enough time for its ENTIRE stinger to Penetrate
I love how this guy doesn't over-react like Peterson does, it makes it more believable and realistic. The good thing about this is that we can see when something truly is painful rather than just screaming and hollering for the camera/views.
Dude…I have so much respect for you for doing this. You could not pay me enough money, especially not to do it myself
Bro why is ur pfp so popular i see it daily😂 its cool tho
So glad you had the same reaction I did…I was worried I was weak. (I’ve been stung by these twice). It’s quick lasting but yeah, it’s painful. Glad you agree.
Phew!
Right into the action, really smart video style. This easily gets people intresred in the video. Great job guys amazing quality video. Keep it up!
one arm: hmm 🤔 whats happening over there?
the stinged arm: OH GOD THAT HURTS!
Glad to see coyote not being stung or bitten for once
You guys have more courage then I do, I would try to stall as much as possible. 😅
Mark your are truly a brave wilderness explorer!!
I have never heard them called “Bulldog ants”. Here in Australia we call the “Bull ants”.
When I was young, probably around 6 or 7, I was on a drive with my family. We stopped on the side of the road for some reason and I got out to pick some wild flowers for my mum. I didn’t realise there was a bull ant nest nearby, and by the time I got back to the car I had them all over my little body stinging me. I had to strip off my clothes and sit naked in the car while we tried to find a doctor.

Australia again... From stinging trees, spiders and snakes to sharks and everything in between... How does anyone survive there 🤣
After watching Clint’s video on getting stung by the bullet ant, I can’t trust any of your reactions anymore. lol
Great close ups, that thing is brutal!
WOW. You guys NEVER fail to deliver content! :D
What an interesting species of ant! Dangerous and pretty large too! I remember they time when I was little when I saw these in the Australian backyard at Perth of the bungalow my family rented. Good thing they were dead from the cold as i proceeded to pick them up a little while later 😬
We live in TAS Auastralia and my son was bit by one of these, his reaction was awful! And then it flared again 5 days later with red line going up his foot. He now has an epipen for this. His message : is not fun, i love your videos, hows your arm now?
Oh no sorry to hear, good to have the epipen handy though! Thanks for asking, my arm is a bit discolored at the sting area but no more pain or itching - happy about that!
Coyote: ya okay mark? Huh? Huh? Huh? You okay? Why dont you tell us what you're feeling!
Hi Mark! Thanks for keeping it going!
This guy is a legend.
Who had anxiety throughout most of the video. I did! ✋🏼😂
👇
I feel so bad for him his immune system must be like wth is he doing to himself this is to repetitive
Man I love that mark is keeping the legacy of coyote Peterson
Imagine if aliens captured us to see how we sting too 😂
I love watching Brave Wilderness, everytime I do I always feel much more brave and happy. I’m happy Mark is taking Coyote’s place since he retired sadly. ❤
Any specific reason he retired?
Yeah?
I'm not sure why people keep saying that he retired, because he didn't.
Bulldog ants are so sight-oriented that they can visually track objects up to 1 meter (3.3 feet) distance away.
As an Australian, I have a nest of these ants as a pet.
Yes, more sting videos as a fellow entomologist these are my favorite videos you guys make.
I've never seen that ant before! The fact that it can jump is crazy! Hope your arm is feeling better. I'm excited to see what other animals you saw.
I wonder how bad an alligator bite is. But seriously Mark you've reached the next level my dog like bro you took one of the most toxic chemicals in your hand formic acid that ain't no joke and you wow your life was on the line there well thanks for answering that question
3:05 Look how it turns its head..... Ant stares straight ahead questioning all of its little ant life choices....
I'm imagining Australian kids laughing at him, sprinkling these ants in each other's pants every day just for prank.)
0:07 AUSTRALIAN?? I'm staying inside from now on. I live in australia.
Same
Love how coyote doesn't do these anymore... 😭😭😭
He still does it
Seen a new video, expected to see Coyote but forgot he retired..☹️. Channel ain't the same without him but still has the information and entertainment that I enjoy.
Bulldog ants are known as bull ants(myrmecia pyriformis) in Australia. The jumping jack or jack jumper(myrmecia pilosula) is about half the size of a bull ant and can jump about 10cm. Jumping Jacks are way way more aggressive than a bull ant
6:26 - MAN!!!
I really wanted to hear this haha "You okay Mark?" :D
Keep up the good work 👏
I still miss coyote doing the challenges those were the old days ❤
At least he's red
So, it's easy for us to know if it's a bad ant
That bulldog ant was like " He really wanted me to sting him "
You got balls of iron for not removing the ant as soon as it stung you and letting in stay on your arm for a few more seconds
Coyote retired man he was my childhood 🫶
He did?
During my childhood, I had the unfortunate encounter of being stung by a rather formidable Bullant measuring a full inch in length. The sensation was like the forceful blow from a hammer upon first contact. In all honesty, I initially believed that I had been struck by an external object, perhaps a stick, until I laid eyes upon the creature perched upon my ankle.
