What a great bug. We've all seen them, looks real scary but I just found out they probably won't bite unless you threaten them. So I'll probably free handle the next one. I, of course was provoking him in this video and he did take up a defensive stance. I'll keep posting these scary insect videos until the Florida tourism board asks me to stop.

  • best cameramen ever!! he gets it on tape while running!!

  • @JorgeSoares7 lol, yea. It must have looked funny for my neighbors.

  • @Toppervision1 Hahaha. I was thinking just the same thing. He really has determination!

    Great Video! The earwigs here in my country is certainly not as fast as this, and I have never seen them push their pincers upwards like that! Guess I've never threatened an earwig before..

  • @Helmutlozzi Yea, they're actually kind of hard to piss off. But it can be done. And indeed, no need to harm it. I did let it go on it's merry way. I just wanted to film him doing that.

  • I see a lot of them out side under our trash cans and other stuff that has set around. You move it and a bunch will run out. What happenes if they DO bite you?

  • @ModelKarKid Ha ha, well they're not poisonous and it's just a little pinch. As you can see there he just gives a quick pinch then runs.

  • I've been pinched a few times by these and they do hurt a little, about like a bee sting without the residual swelling ,etc...

  • Remember getting pinched by these as a kid--hardly hurts at all. Then again, there a couple types of fairly small water skimmers whose bite hurts like a wasp sting--ruins your whole day. Nature's weird.
