And whilst he is distracted exclaiming about the power of the thing, is he aware that it is dangerously near to his scrotum? smile

I think the big question is...

Is a mantis Shrimp brighter than most UFC fighters?

Look for me on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or Tic Toc...or anywhere you may frequent, besides SimHq, on the Global Scam Net. Aka, the internet.
I am not there, never have been or ever will be, but the fruitless search may be more gratifying then the "content" you might otherwise be exposed to.

WIKI: some can grow to 15 inches long. They have a shell like a lobster. They have been around for 240 million years. There are 450+ species of Mantis Shrimps. In Hawaii and in some Mediterranean and Asian countries, people eat them. They are made for close range combat:

YouTube has been pushing this video on me too but I haven't clicked on it yet.
What drives them to take a video on this subject and push this on so many YouTube viewers?
Genuinely curious.

the same thing that makes facebook sugest you as many people you never met, eventually one will be related to you by proxy. So eventually this will be liked by you and other videos of the kind will follow.
what piss me most is that channels i subscribe dont pop up anymore in the first page

Beyond that. They can produce a cavitation bubble intense enough to produce sonoluminescence.

Pound for pound (more like ounce for ounce) they're still nothing compared to some insects, but scaled up to human dimensions, if it were possible to maintain that scale, they'd be able to impale a human torso right through the sternum without much effort...
