The Worlds Longest Insect - Titan Stick Insect

[MzChelxoxo]

So glad I wasn't born a bug.

[blindmotioncom]

are there bigger ones in North Queensland ? this seems pretty average sized for what i get around my house.

[HeyItsJaceyy]

I have a phobie of stick bugs.

i just fell on the floor crying..

thanks..

[MusicChannel0001]

EAT IT!

[AlexAndTaylor7]

Stupid stupid stupid stupid no no no. You NEVER under ANY curcumstance pinch a stick bug like that. Shame shame shame.

[4lifeillwill]

It's called a Phasmatodea!

[mantis3771]

release me you giant octopus!

[LucasJodoKast]

i once seen a cat playing with one of these out the front of my house, went out to see what it was playing with & my blood ran cold when i realised it was a massive stick insect, this one is tiny, the one i seen was at least 50cm in length & about as thick as 4 of my fingers combined

once seen a praying mantis out the from as well that was almost the size of a cat, something about the big tree we had out the front attracted these mutant insects, wish digital cameras were around back then

[jtayok]

@LucasJodoKast Cool story bro.

[jeanbook009]

:yaoming:

[GarenDJ]

[heelrunner]

why am I fighting the urge to squeal?

[TimeFreeze1]

seems like a useless bloody animal to me.. I'm not trying to be mean, but honestly, if it has no defense, then what is the point of it?

[MrExtremeNoob]

I felt something bitting my sackballs after watching this xD

[Ludde4448]

[JuSTMuCHaCHa]

@buerplaysguitar because they are completely harmless (: heyyy man! atleast they dont have massive spikes on them like the other types of stick bugs! so these ones are good, i like the little baby green ones ^^

[buerplaysguitar]

@JuSTMuCHaCHa Well, thats good. I like bugs too, but when I see very big bugs they creep me out... I feel like they are gonna break or something XD

[TMtricks]

[BareGoggen]

[erfmufn]

@BareGoggen yeh totally defenceless! (relies 100% on camo)

[stalkersas]

@erfmufn bad idea to camo as a stick... ppl make fires with sticks...

[theoxiiii]

@erfmufn Well, they tickles babies, hihihi xD

[jjpharissTheReal1]

@erfmufn whats the song :3

[erfmufn]

@jjpharissTheReal1 Oh just an old track I did in Buzz tracker years ago.. maybe 15 years ago now!

[killerblazer459]

SHITSON! RUNNNN! then kill it with fire.

[panthergeckodude998]

I have one he is shy and very cool I love reptiles and insects:D))))

[Szederp]

Is this some kind of fucking joke? The camera never filmed the WHOLE insect, only parts of it, so the viewer cannot even imagine the size of it? Shit, shit, shit.

[RVMDairsoft]

it moves die to side just like preying matis's. why to they do that?

[erfmufn]

@RVMDairsoft they have no defence.. so they swing like that in the hope that whoever is watching will mistake them for a twig swinging in the wind. :)

[nornan12]

@erfmufn Oh, I thought it was just pissed off. :/

[RVMDairsoft]

@RVMDairsoft hahaha wow dont know how i ended up saying die to side.... meant side to side. but thanks for the info!

[missplayboy1998]

[MrCrayonInk95]

How do they mate?

[bobbarker369]

@MrCrayonInk95 cock in the pootang,

[Hashishin13]

Here is a tip, when doing a video about the longest insect in the world, KEEP THE WHOLE THING IN ONE SHOT FOR MORE THEN HALF A SECOND SO WE CAN SEE IT.

[lunarfoxie]

i wouldve squealed rilly loud!

[HyperSonicXtreme]

If I saw something that rare I wouldn't kill it.

[ez2bhardcore]

a cockroach was crawlin around in ur jerkoff infested bed .... a couple days later out pops thousands of egss containing this homo BS ......

[trinny123]

omg i just found out one of mine has wings it can fly ,,,,never realised before they fit so snug didnt noice them lol

[bbnnkk1]

pfft i be like.... aaa shit wheres mah fuckin shovel!

[IggyHazard]

They're so funny when they flail around like that. XD They'd be much more comfortable if they sat still (assuming the handler is gentle like this one here), but their natural instincts make them skiddish. Their eyes are similar to the eyes of a cicada (two compound set far apart and three ocelli in the middle of the forehead). Chewy mouthparts are chewy.

[erfmufn]

@IggyHazard yeh amazing eyes, thanks for the info!

[trinny123]

IM IN THE UK AND HAVE 2 OF THESE THEY ARE FANTASTIC PETS ,IVE BEEN TOLD THEY JUST EAT BRAMBLE IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU KNOW OF THAT THEY WILL EAT AND ENJOY THANKS FOR THE VIDEO HUN

[erfmufn]

@trinny123 not sure.. but yeh i imagine they eat a lot of vegetation.

[ovechkin651]

do they feel like real stick?

[HolyGK]

can we make a flute out of it ?

[Kabuterrible]

neat...I wonder if those guys stay in one area, though...I mean, if they have a tendency to roam, looking for a more suitable living area

[monjanse]

aw so cute big stick!

[Snayperskaya]

Good thing Australia is in a separate continent from the rest of the world. They got the most weird/horrid bugs/insects/arachinids/etc.

[maplemanz]

[themixedarts]

Insect: "be the wind, feel the wind"

Insect: OHMIGOD NOOOOO!!!

[gamejestor]
