wow, hey, i saw hundreds and hundreds of videos. i know that the club of the mantis-smasher is technically 2 parts with a hidden spear. THIS is the only footage i ever saw that a smasher uses his spears!! i assumed evolution somehow disabled that function, maybe because they could get stuck with the spear. have you ever saw other footage of a smasher spearing??
This is recorded at 400FPS (13.3x slower then real life). Yet the Smashers appendage is still swinging to fast to see beyond a blur...for now. (This is old footage recently found and never made public). You'll be able to instantly tell when the new footage is here... it'll speak for itself.
Nice footage! Good to see the new camera being put to use after all the testing :)
+Gideon Okun This is old footage (not the new camera)
That all starts May 6th not long now :D
Cool footage
+Stovepipe Thanks this is old footage from Phase 1, the 2nd Phase is about to begin with far superior quality footage.
Poor little bugger never stood a chance, lol
I have a slow motion function on my new camera which I really must test out.
I didn’t know smashers could also spear until now. That’s very cool! But I would imagine they don’t use it most of the time?

+Mantisman™ Is this in a controlled environment, or in the wild?
+Hart Underscore_ Controlled
For a beginner who wants a G Chiragra, how much would it be for a descent setup with a 20 gallon tank?
Hey do you breed mantis shrimp or catch 'em?
+Luan Luna Cannot breed only catch :)
First one here.
+Polarized Chaos Indeed Congratz!
+Mantisman™ Thanks, the video is awesome by the way.
