  • Oh i thought this was a documentary about Steelers fans sorry hard to tell 
  • lies it doesn't work ive been rubbing my legs for five hrs now i still have no friends :((
  • answer to locusts? a few bottles of compressed air cleaner, 2 lighters....... move and burn people. move and burn
  • Great, thanks for telling everyone how to cause this. This is gonna end well.
  • Where's the birds when you need them
  • Does anyone else's head itch/tingle when watching stuff like this? Whenever I watch creepy stuff like this I feel like the things are crawling all over my head.
  • Return the slab!
  • This. This is SO COOL.
  • It's funny how many people saw this video and thought "flamethrower". I did too.
  • any body else getting the heebie jeebies? **shudder**

As a genetic counsellor, I am often called upon to explain to worried patients and their family members concepts such as incomplete penetrance, which sounds like a sexual problem but actually denotes the likelihood that someone with a gene for a condition will remain unaffected. Or variable expressivity, which describes the range of outcomes associated with a given genetic disease.*It turns out to be very difficult to make predictions about the effect that a given gene variant will have on traits and behaviours. Even in those exceptional situations where there is a well-characterised relationship between the gene and the disease, my colleagues and I often have a hard time predicting who will get sick and how sick they will be.* In the clinic, we call these genotype-phenotype correlations, and they are notoriously inexact. For example, the gene for cystic fibrosis (CF) was identified in 1989. We know how and why the changes in the gene create symptoms of the disease. Does that mean we can predict the course of the disease in individuals? No, it does not. Even siblings with CF can have very different outcomes. This is the frustrating reality for a couple with a foetus diagnosed prenatally. And these are the easy cases, the Mendelian diseases, the ones that pass down through families in predictable patterns of inheritance, like Gregor Mendel’s peas.*Complexity is very hard to communicate, in part because people are primed to believe that genes are powerful (which they are) and determinative (which they are not).* [...]" - by +laura hercher
  • How locusts perceive the signal to swarm.
  • Lemme see they swarmed in 88 over Sudan, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Lebanon, Iraq, and Iran.. ALL COUNTRIES THAT ARE ENEMIES OF ISRAEL. I say God stirs them up
  • I hate locust it scare me 
  • Interesting. 
  • If Locusts are such a problem, why don't we just gas them next time they start swaming?
  • this is what happens when you feed kog'maw
  • Bring out the flamethrowers
  • God, I hate the stupid exaggerated sound effects & music on these "nature" videos.

  • Array
  • Array
  • Why are there no giant lasers being built to kill them? Lasers solve everything!!
  • "They come they eat they leave. They come they eat they leave."
  • Who was the weirdo that figured out stroking locusts for hours caused them to swarm? That guy needs to be on some kind of list. 
  • Love it when the food delivers itself :P
  • So... No one had a Flamethrower?
  • aww they think the're people
  • Omg... He is covered in them... That is pure hell... what is wrong with him!
  • How locusts perceive the signal to swarm.
  • When I saw that transformation, I literally screamed till the end of the video.OAO
  • This nigga on meth or some shit.
  • I always thought they could use a giant vacuum to catch all the locusts. 
  • Did they create a loctus swarm just to put the footage in this? 
  • So... No one had a Flamethrower?
  • Why don't people in Africa eat them? This will help their hunger problem. 
  • form an army of men with flamethrowers and torch that shit to the floor
  • Shit happens when locust swarm but humans are so fucking worse that humans destroyed their homes to get more lands to feed more people...
  • شكرا
  • just eat the locusts... get fed and get rid of the problem
