  • I agre with Nicko sir balls of steel

  • thats interesting, never knew they could fly or get that big on either, the ones around here are really small and wingless ((or could just be non-visible i guess)) but same, the ones around here are relatively harmless, if anything alittle pinch that feels less painful than a small sugar ant bite :P either way their beautiful insects :D

  • The ear-wigs in my area are wingless, not nearly as pretty as the one on your hand!

  • Awwwe babe its harmless, holy shit!! it could fly!!

  • Neat. I've never seen one fly before. I found out a while ago that they could fly but have never seen one fly until this video. Good job.

  • it can fly short distances to...that just bad><

  • I didn't know they could fly. They fly? They fly!

  • I HAD TO PUT IN EAR PLUGGS AFTER THIS........

  • Lol what are you all so afraid of XD this thing can't even harm you nor does it look scare :D.

  • @OgreWorld dont tell me they cant hurt you. i saw that episode of night gallery.

  • @damnyancey What could it possibly do? Pinch, and that's all.

  • @OgreWorld That was kind of a joke. I know their harmless. Night Gallery was before your time. the "Caterpillar" episode was about earwigs, only they wernt so harmless. you can find it on youtube.

  • Only certain kinds can fly, usually the ones in the U.S. can't fly.

  • i'd be so damn scared!

  • im just like him i sit out back and play with crazy bugs and animals but i dont live in thiland like him lucky

  • nice earwig whats its latin name so i can google it?

  • @freedomchaser2402 forficula it says

  • Do all earwigs have wings? I find these critters in my house all the time and wasn't aware they could take flight.

  • Giant scissor asses that stink. They are the narly cockroaches of every garden and flower. You go SQUISH now!

  • my green anole used to like eating these, even though they almost always bit him using those ass pincers when he did........to bad my sisters cat killed him........his name was little guy.

  • I remember when one of these thing got me...FUCK it hurt. After I realised it it stopped paining as much, it was just the suddent unsuspecting bite that it released on me.I pulled it out and let it play on my arm some, then it flew off.

  • That thing looks sharp and tight!!!!!! Cool looking creature.

  • I almost shit my pants if a tiny ass brownish one lands on me.... And you're sitting there with this huge ass mofo likes its no big deal

  • Zergling!

  • @ChocolateNinjaStar Starcraft FTW

  • i found one of those things in london, i saw it was a male and i tried to pick it up but it pinched me so hard that it made me bleed

  • I bloody hate Earwigs, the nasty little bastards always in everyones mailboxes.

  • lol i dont mind bugs and spiders and stuff,but you pick these evil looking buggers up like they're candy coated or something.

    i guess its just a matter of knowing what they're gonna do when you handle them.

    For instance,i've fucked around with plenty of earwigs,but never saw one fly.

    if one woulda took off on me,i woulda spazzed out and lost it and had to have found a new one.

    but i like ur vids,MORE PLEASE.

    =D

  • He's beautiful!!

  • i would poop SEVEN small children if that thing was on my hand.

  • That looks tasty :D

  • naww yellow wings are cute lol.

  • wow thats a sick earwig! i never knew they flew. Its funny though how he flew 2cm when he could have just walked there :p

  • people are SO terrified of earwigs....I keep trying to convince my friends they just eat through wood and dirt but they're convinced.....everything from "they burrow in your ear canal and lay eggs there" to "they pinch bits of skin off of you and your dogs" to "they have CYANIDE FILLED BITES

  • @blargers123

    They have cyanide filled bites?!??!! D:

    jk...

  • @blargers123 so the ear thing is a myth right?

  • Awww its so cute :D

  • You my friend have balls of absolute steel.

  • @NickoTheGuitarist Not really. I've held earwigs too and they're really not a big deal at all. They only LOOK a bit creepy but they're absolutely safe to hold.

  • @AlxMar5 I picked one up in a kleenex to remove from a classroom when I was in first grade, and it pinched me hard through the tissue. A little freaky, and not at all harmful, but man did I underestimate that little bug

  • @GoatOfGhandi I'm sure that can happen but remember that just about every animal out there will try to find a way to defend itself. I've been attacked by animals that are known "beyond doubt" to be harmless. Also, it probably depends on how large and what species they are. But yeah, earwigs are almost always completely harmless. Did that draw blood BTW?

  • @AlxMar5 No blood, just a couple of dimples left on my finger. But like you said it was life or death for that earwig and like any animal it fought like hell (even if I didn't just stomp it and was kindly taking it outside in a kleenex)

  • @NickoTheGuitarist ur just a pussy with no balls

  • @7burnitdown Hey internet tough guy.

  • It's as if the wings come out of nowhere :D just *snap* and it's off

  • WHoa that's a cool earwig!

  • if that was on me i'd grab a chainsaw and kill it!!

  • SLAP THAT BITCH!

  • Pretty cool, I have a strong disliking towards the average house-wig. But not enough for me to kill them.

  • @despair2ko house wigs are harmless. but the south american head wig you gotta watch out for they are painful LMAO

  • Damn, amazing insect :D Dig the ass pincers.

  • Hahaha, I still wonder where they got the name from.

    Earwig hmm..

    And also, where did the old stories of them crawling into your ears start anyways...

  • @KonanOfTheAkatsukix I have had one go in my ear before. It didn't crawl in, it actually flew in while we were playing football. It freaked me out. It was more of an accidental thing the bug did. Somebody else probably had this happen back in the past and thought they actually do this on a regular basis, and started spreading the rumors that they go in peoples ears. If you ever have the same experience, just put your ear facing towards bright light and the bug will crawl back out.

  • @Torn80cj oh man....imagine it going deeper lol

  • @KonanOfTheAkatsukix ear, as in ear of corn

  • WTF they fly ? wer do u live

  • Fuuck that... I'm stitching my ears shut...

  • Hmm

    If earwigs don't crawl into your ears then why are they called so? Why not some name with "ant" and "beetle" in it?

  • @MaskedManiac225 the wings when stretched out resemble a human ear. theyre not called earwhig cus they crawl in ears. thats just folklore to scare kids.

  • @MikeJustDidit Oh I see. Thanks for telling me :)

  • nature is amazing, it's like an arms race.

  • my friend is scared of those bugz...

  • this is the reason black people dont go out in nature

  • bullshit! i am sorry but for some freak of nature reason i one time had one crawling i my ear, i was in bed and was waking up and i felt sumthin in my ear so i went to scratch it but swiped off a earwig right as it was on the canal of my ear.. i was a kid! shit scared da hell outta me, cept it wasnt this diabolical sick fuck, it was just a normal shitty lesser earwig.but yea im pretty sure they dont intentionally go after ears just saying though it definitely can happen

  • oh I beg to defer about the not crawling in one's ears...it happened to my departed grandmother at night she was freaking out and felt something crawling deeper into her ear...so I poured a bit of oil in her ear and the earwing came crawling out it fell to the floor where it met the bottom of my foot

  • A bird fucked with an insect.

  • the ones that dont fly are bad enough now these a heavens no

  • DAM NATURE U SCARY!!

  • @voidspof87

    gettin tired of that comment -_-

  • @voidspof87 if one more persons makes that comment i'm gonna EXPLODE!

  • shit, that looks dangerous.....

  • Does it usually have it's pincers wide open like that? Or does it just find your hand really annoying?

  • lol its a bug!!!

  • the species that lives where i live in north east of the united states they dont fly at all.

  • @NEWOIKKIN5235 We have those in southern ontario

  • looking for a food haha :D

  • ur crazy this gives me the creeps and makes my stomach sik just lookin at it

  • Man having your mouth on your ass must be fun! Lol

  • "Imma kill this bug...Oh shit it flies!"

  • where the hell do the wings come from?

  • @ddrspy just behind the thorax i think( the bum) is a small little wing covery thing, never could remember the name for it but most can fly i think or atleast have wings and they look pretty kick ass

  • a mouth on ur butt fuuuuuuuuunnnnn

  • i have the same thing with out wings and yours are more scary because it could fly in your ear

  • @AlphaNinjaPenguin a shame they cant get in your ear and actually DO anything huh?

  • @Lavos2007 do you wanna bet?

  • @AlphaNinjaPenguin well, id love to, but im gonna save you the 50 bucks that id win in doing so :)

  • @Lavos2007 look up earwig eatting my brain on youtube that will show you something

  • @AlphaNinjaPenguin If you watched that full video you would have seen that the video dismisses the myth as false at the end. The first part is just a fictional story made up to entertain the viewer.

  • hmmmmm....

    *gets jumbo ray ready*

  • you let that thing touch you!

  • i was wondering if there was a species of earwig that flied hmm case closed.

  • Holy.. It can Fly...

  • Very cool insect. Some earwigs are able to pinch to a point that it can be felt, but they don't cause anything close to pain. And no they don't crawl into your ears and eat your brain. Well said, they are harmless but quite interesting.

  • one crazy earwig. what species of earwig is this?

  • wow never seen that kinda Earwig but i have seen 2 other types not sure whattheir called but one of them is a fat and red type with reasonibly large pincers while the other looks like its wearing a coat that's yellow and brown.

  • kill it !!!!!!!

  • Didn't know they could fly LoL

    Creepy lil thing

  • oh man! i hope not all of them fly. do they all fly?

  • LOL i was about to wash the grapes when that insect lived in the grape box LOL

  • omfg flying ants now flying earwigs?! whats next!

  • @joethegamer444 FLYING PIGGIES!!!!!

  • @joethegamer444 FLYING SPIDERS!!!

  • ok if they dont go into your ear and those back pinchers can barly grasp they're fine by me

  • crush there meaningless life!}>=(

  • as if earwigs aren't bad... FLYING earwings?!

  • I LIKE IT

  • 0:09 Holy Shit It Flies.!

  • That species flies?

    Aw Hell NO.

  • @visceraViSAGE My thoughts exactly.

  • @visceraViSAGE i believe all the species fly. i have yet to see one that doesn't fly.  It's rare that they fly though,

  • @Gypscrew

    Ah I did not know that~ O:

    Well I'm glad they don't fly a lot then..because I would have to purchase a flamethrower or something. XD

  • @Gypscrew im not the most up to date about bugs but in california i have never seen one fly or show their wings even when trying to run away from me with bug spray

  • @breech5 it's like I said though, it's rare. I have noticed these bugs for the last 8 or so years and I have only seen one fly once.

  • @visceraViSAGE

    Most earwigs fly, but hardly ever use their wings, even in danger.

  • @visceraViSAGE The common earwigs you could find in  your garden can fly too. they just rarely do

  • @visceraViSAGE all do xD

  • @visceraViSAGE I Think U Mean Aww Hell,HELL No

  • @visceraViSAGE got this from google "Some groups within the earwig order are tiny parasites on mammals and lack the typical pincers. Earwigs rarely fly, even though they are capable of doing so."

  • did that creepy motherfucker fly

  • ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww­wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww­wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww­wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww­www KILL IT KILL IT!!!!!

  • it wants closer to your face

  • i fucking hate earwigs

    they are everywhere in my room, every 5minute i take a glance anyplace

    i just find one lying there. fucking nasty. they like moist area, and i happen to open windows but fuck...ihatei t

  • spoiler alert! i just spoiled my pants...

  • Earwigs are pretty cool cats. I have an irrational fear of woodlice, and that's basically it as far as bugs go...Though I won't lie that I do find spiders a bit un-nerving when I'm near one. I guess so many years of watching others senselessly freak out over them teaches you to associate them with fear. D:

  • i hate earwigs! >< but that one did look pretty cool.

  • it sounds bizarre to say it but that's actually a really pretty bug =D

  • @SoranoSiaStrife I don't think it's bixxare. I love these bugs and I have an enclosure for them to live in. I have one male Earwig right now :)

  • I think it's a good day to stay Inside...

  • here in brazil we call this insect as "tesourinha". but its scientific name is "Doru luteipes"

  • Diabolical earwig is diabolical!

  • @RaDDx1968 half the kids at my school must be infected with earwigs then

  • @RaDDx1968 Can one live with permanent ear plugs?

  • in germany we have earwigs a little bit bigger (a third bigger)) which have changed their appearance : the pincers are grown together and look like the tail of a scorpion to scare enemys. they look very scary (a lot more scary than the pseudoscorpion)

  • Comment removed

  • It flys? Oh god

  • All earwigs can fly.. some just prefer not to.

    I know because I keep earwigs and out of all of them only one ever flew and he only did it once.

  • Oh cool, My friend caught one, but it didn't have pincers strangely.

  • Your friend probably caught a Rove Beetle, try looking it up and see if that matches.

    Anyway, I love Earwigs! I keep them over the winter and let them go in the spring.

    I've found them to be very cute after learning more about them, especially when they groom themselves and cuddle together. x3!

    Wish earwigs in Canada looked that cool.

  • o.o hey dont i know you xD

  • I think so... O_o

  • oh! i remember you. we traded a whole bunch of shinies. i havent been on in like a yr so u probly dont remember me :]
