Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:10,662 --> 00:00:12,534
OK, Coyote, time
to face your fears.
2
00:00:13,578 --> 00:00:15,406
OK, here we go.
3
00:00:15,537 --> 00:00:17,843
I'm Coyote Peterson, and
I'm about to be bitten
4
00:00:17,974 --> 00:00:19,932
by the toe biter on my big toe.
5
00:00:20,063 --> 00:00:21,978
One.
6
00:00:22,109 --> 00:00:23,893
two,
7
00:00:37,733 --> 00:00:39,300
I got it.
8
00:00:39,430 --> 00:00:40,910
It's a big turtle.
9
00:00:41,041 --> 00:00:42,781
Every
time I leave from a kayak
10
00:00:42,912 --> 00:00:45,958
and find myself submerged
beneath the swampy surface,
11
00:00:46,089 --> 00:00:49,179
I am absolutely terrified.
12
00:00:49,310 --> 00:00:51,355
Not because I'm afraid
of the giant reptilian
13
00:00:51,486 --> 00:00:54,010
predator that I've
likely grabbed a hold of.
14
00:00:54,141 --> 00:00:57,709
No, no, snapping turtles
don't scare me at all.
15
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,451
What scares me is the
alien looking creature
16
00:01:00,582 --> 00:01:03,106
that may be hiding the
tingles of pond plants
17
00:01:03,237 --> 00:01:06,501
that infamously known
as the toe biter.
18
00:01:06,631 --> 00:01:08,720
You guys know
what that is, right?
19
00:01:08,851 --> 00:01:11,984
That's my old arch
nemesis the toe biter.
20
00:01:12,115 --> 00:01:13,290
Scientifically,
21
00:01:13,421 --> 00:01:15,771
they are known as
the giant water bug,
22
00:01:15,901 --> 00:01:17,686
a nightmarish creature
that we have briefly
23
00:01:17,816 --> 00:01:20,254
featured in the past
and one of the animals
24
00:01:20,384 --> 00:01:23,561
that I have continuously
expressed an honest fear of.
25
00:01:23,692 --> 00:01:25,172
Nobody in their
right mind would do this.
26
00:01:25,302 --> 00:01:26,999
I'd get bitten by
an alligator any day
27
00:01:27,130 --> 00:01:28,914
as compared to be
stung by this thing.
28
00:01:29,045 --> 00:01:31,569
With
their alien like appearance,
29
00:01:31,700 --> 00:01:35,399
grappling hook like arms,
and massive rostrum that
30
00:01:35,530 --> 00:01:38,098
can inflict an
incredibly painful bite,
31
00:01:38,228 --> 00:01:41,536
trust me when I say
this is not something
32
00:01:41,666 --> 00:01:46,106
you want to bump into when
mucking around in the swamps.
33
00:01:46,236 --> 00:01:48,282
Yet, leave it up
to the Coyote Pack
34
00:01:48,412 --> 00:01:51,676
to request over and over again
that I show the world just
35
00:01:51,807 --> 00:01:55,027
how painful that bite
really is and in turn,
36
00:01:55,158 --> 00:01:57,160
how to treat that
bite if you are ever
37
00:01:57,291 --> 00:01:59,945
so unfortunate to take one.
38
00:02:00,076 --> 00:02:03,210
These water dwelling insects
can be found worldwide,
39
00:02:03,340 --> 00:02:05,560
and it's just my luck,
they happen to be
40
00:02:05,690 --> 00:02:07,779
very common in Costa Rica.
41
00:02:07,910 --> 00:02:10,652
So the crew and I headed out
into the darkness of night,
42
00:02:10,782 --> 00:02:14,264
when they were actively hunting,
to see if we could find one,
43
00:02:14,395 --> 00:02:17,398
a big one that, sure
enough, would certainly
44
00:02:17,528 --> 00:02:20,488
give me a bite to remember.
45
00:02:20,618 --> 00:02:24,840
All right, I am looking
for a giant water bug, also
46
00:02:24,970 --> 00:02:27,843
known as a toe biter, and I'm
pretty sure I saw one right
47
00:02:27,973 --> 00:02:30,411
on the other side of that log.
48
00:02:30,541 --> 00:02:32,456
Right on the other side
of those plants there.
49
00:02:32,587 --> 00:02:35,459
What I'm going to try to do is
actually go out on this log.
50
00:02:35,590 --> 00:02:37,113
You see this fallen log?
51
00:02:37,244 --> 00:02:38,941
That should get me right
in the perfect position.
52
00:02:39,071 --> 00:02:40,769
I don't want to disturb
the environment,
53
00:02:40,899 --> 00:02:43,119
I'm going to use this net
to try to scoop it up.
54
00:02:57,568 --> 00:02:58,830
Got it.
55
00:02:58,961 --> 00:03:00,180
Wow, it's big.
56
00:03:00,310 --> 00:03:02,791
Hold on, I'm coming
right towards you.
57
00:03:02,921 --> 00:03:05,576
Hold on, I'm losing my balance.
58
00:03:05,707 --> 00:03:06,490
There it is.
59
00:03:06,621 --> 00:03:07,839
Let's get it on the net.
60
00:03:07,970 --> 00:03:09,667
Get in there, get in
there, get in there.
61
00:03:09,798 --> 00:03:11,756
That is a monster water bug.
62
00:03:11,887 --> 00:03:14,106
Look at the size of
that thing, my goodness.
63
00:03:14,237 --> 00:03:15,325
Hold on, let me get
it out of the net.
64
00:03:15,456 --> 00:03:16,457
You guys got lights?
65
00:03:16,587 --> 00:03:17,501
Lights?
66
00:03:20,896 --> 00:03:29,078
Oh, look at that creature,
an alien from another planet.
67
00:03:29,209 --> 00:03:30,862
My hand is shaking.
68
00:03:30,993 --> 00:03:35,606
That's a giant water bug,
also known as the toe biter.
69
00:03:35,737 --> 00:03:37,129
I'm not doing the scene
in the dark, guys.
70
00:03:37,260 --> 00:03:39,044
We're waiting until
tomorrow morning,
71
00:03:39,175 --> 00:03:43,310
and yes, I'm going to let my big
toe be bitten by the toe biter.
72
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,486
Oh, look at that.
73
00:03:45,616 --> 00:03:47,618
My goodness, it's a beast.
74
00:03:47,749 --> 00:03:51,535
They can fly, they can swim, and
their bite is one of the most
75
00:03:51,666 --> 00:03:53,668
painful in the insect kingdom.
76
00:03:53,798 --> 00:03:55,974
Not a sting, guys, it is a bite.
77
00:03:56,105 --> 00:03:57,280
All right, I'm putting
in the container.
78
00:03:57,411 --> 00:03:58,281
You ready?
79
00:04:02,938 --> 00:04:04,592
Just keep the lid on it.
80
00:04:04,722 --> 00:04:07,072
Trust me, you don't want this
one getting into your boot.
81
00:04:12,774 --> 00:04:15,820
Warning,
the bite from a giant water bug
82
00:04:15,951 --> 00:04:17,257
is nonlethal.
83
00:04:17,387 --> 00:04:20,825
However, it is
excruciatingly painful.
84
00:04:20,956 --> 00:04:23,263
Never attempt to recreate
the following scene.
85
00:04:29,225 --> 00:04:35,318
There it is, the little
shop of horrors itself,
86
00:04:35,449 --> 00:04:42,543
the giant water bug, also
known as a toe biter.
87
00:04:42,673 --> 00:04:44,327
Now, let
me tell you guys
88
00:04:44,458 --> 00:04:48,070
a little story about when Coyote
Peterson was eight years old.
89
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,986
I was out in the swamp searching
for snapping turtles, wearing
90
00:04:51,116 --> 00:04:54,163
nothing other than
shorts and a t-shirt,
91
00:04:54,294 --> 00:04:57,297
wading through, hoping to
come across a giant reptile
92
00:04:57,427 --> 00:05:00,648
when all of a sudden I felt
a piercing pain in my thigh.
93
00:05:00,778 --> 00:05:03,564
I immediately screamed,
reached my hand in my shorts,
94
00:05:03,694 --> 00:05:06,480
and what do I pull
out, a giant water bug.
95
00:05:06,610 --> 00:05:08,873
I had never seen one of
these creatures before.
96
00:05:09,004 --> 00:05:11,311
I immediately started crying,
not only from the pain,
97
00:05:11,441 --> 00:05:13,400
but because I was
absolutely terrified
98
00:05:13,530 --> 00:05:14,792
at the sight of this thing.
99
00:05:14,923 --> 00:05:17,708
I hobbled myself back to
shore, got myself home,
100
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,101
told my mom What
happened, and we
101
00:05:19,231 --> 00:05:20,407
looked it up in a field guide.
102
00:05:20,537 --> 00:05:22,234
She called the doctor,
and lo and behold,
103
00:05:22,365 --> 00:05:24,280
they assured me I would be OK.
104
00:05:24,411 --> 00:05:26,238
It is not going to kill you.
105
00:05:26,369 --> 00:05:29,067
All I needed to do was
put ice on the bite
106
00:05:29,198 --> 00:05:31,200
and relax for about
an hour and a half,
107
00:05:31,331 --> 00:05:33,681
and finally, the pain
ended up going away.
108
00:05:33,811 --> 00:05:36,771
And ever since that day,
this is the one insect
109
00:05:36,901 --> 00:05:40,252
that I've truly been afraid of.
110
00:05:40,383 --> 00:05:42,429
Now, before we get to
the bite, let's take
111
00:05:42,559 --> 00:05:44,953
a look at this insects anatomy.
112
00:05:45,083 --> 00:05:46,476
Now, this is a true bug.
113
00:05:46,607 --> 00:05:48,565
It may look like a
beetle or cockroach,
114
00:05:48,696 --> 00:05:51,394
but it is, in fact,
its own variety.
115
00:05:51,525 --> 00:05:54,615
There are around 60 species
of water bugs worldwide.
116
00:05:54,745 --> 00:05:56,486
In the United
States, there are 20.
117
00:05:56,617 --> 00:05:58,401
Now, this one here,
the giant water bug,
118
00:05:58,532 --> 00:06:01,273
is very common here in
Central and South America,
119
00:06:01,404 --> 00:06:03,580
and this is about maximum size.
120
00:06:03,711 --> 00:06:06,540
The largest they get is
around four inches in length,
121
00:06:06,670 --> 00:06:10,195
and I would say that one
is about 3 1/2 inches,
122
00:06:10,326 --> 00:06:11,936
an absolute monster.
123
00:06:12,067 --> 00:06:14,417
Now, it's interesting, you
can see it kind of skittering
124
00:06:14,548 --> 00:06:16,201
around inside the container
here as soon as I move it,
125
00:06:16,332 --> 00:06:17,464
but you see that
position that it's
126
00:06:17,594 --> 00:06:19,030
putting itself in
where it's sticking
127
00:06:19,161 --> 00:06:21,293
its rear up through the water.
128
00:06:21,424 --> 00:06:23,861
Look at that little snorkel
looking device there.
129
00:06:23,992 --> 00:06:25,776
That is actually
how it's breathing.
130
00:06:25,907 --> 00:06:27,387
They breathe from
there back ends.
131
00:06:27,517 --> 00:06:28,997
It
breathes out its butt.
132
00:06:29,127 --> 00:06:31,565
Yeah, it's like a
little butt snorkel, right?
133
00:06:31,695 --> 00:06:33,741
So it's keeping itself
positioned like that,
134
00:06:33,871 --> 00:06:36,874
and this is also the same
position in which they hunt.
135
00:06:37,005 --> 00:06:38,354
I'll tell you what's
most intimidating
136
00:06:38,485 --> 00:06:41,357
about this creature
are those front arms.
137
00:06:41,488 --> 00:06:43,272
Let me turn it just a
little bit like that.
138
00:06:43,403 --> 00:06:45,666
Now, like all insects,
they have six legs,
139
00:06:45,796 --> 00:06:48,582
and these front two are modified
with those hooks on the front.
140
00:06:48,712 --> 00:06:51,802
They use those to latch onto
and grapple in their food.
141
00:06:51,933 --> 00:06:53,630
Am I seeing
the snorkel go in and out?
142
00:06:53,761 --> 00:06:55,327
Yeah, the snorkel
does, it goes in and out.
143
00:06:55,458 --> 00:06:57,286
You can see it's kind
of thrust its abdomen
144
00:06:57,417 --> 00:06:58,896
up into the air there.
145
00:06:59,027 --> 00:07:01,203
That's allowing it to
breathe so it can just float,
146
00:07:01,333 --> 00:07:05,468
like a dead leaf, just like
that all day long, waiting for,
147
00:07:05,599 --> 00:07:07,339
let's say, any tadpoles
need to come to the surface
148
00:07:07,470 --> 00:07:09,298
to breed, frogs and
come to the surface.
149
00:07:09,429 --> 00:07:11,431
A fish could just swim by,
and if it swims right up
150
00:07:11,561 --> 00:07:13,215
towards that face,
what they will do
151
00:07:13,345 --> 00:07:14,521
is reach out with
those forearms,
152
00:07:14,651 --> 00:07:16,392
and they have two
hooks right on the end.
153
00:07:16,523 --> 00:07:19,047
They'll grapple on and
pull it towards their face.
154
00:07:19,177 --> 00:07:22,093
Right on the face there, is
what's called a rostrum, which
155
00:07:22,224 --> 00:07:23,617
is like a little hooked beak.
156
00:07:23,747 --> 00:07:25,140
Now, it is inside of a sheath.
157
00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:26,576
So as soon as they
catch something,
158
00:07:26,707 --> 00:07:28,839
it comes out of that
sheath, and it injects
159
00:07:28,970 --> 00:07:30,841
an incredibly potent saliva.
160
00:07:30,972 --> 00:07:32,713
Now, the enzymes
in that saliva will
161
00:07:32,843 --> 00:07:36,804
actually paralyze the victim,
and it is stuck in place.
162
00:07:36,934 --> 00:07:39,546
So imagine that your tadpole,
and then as that saliva works
163
00:07:39,676 --> 00:07:41,852
its way into the system,
it actually breaks
164
00:07:41,983 --> 00:07:44,115
apart the victim's insides.
165
00:07:44,246 --> 00:07:47,641
And then they drink it
up just like a milkshake.
166
00:07:47,771 --> 00:07:49,294
How horrific is that?
167
00:07:49,425 --> 00:07:50,905
That what
it's going to do to your to?
168
00:07:51,035 --> 00:07:52,689
Well, it's not
going to do that to my toe
169
00:07:52,820 --> 00:07:54,343
because I'm not going to
let it hold on that long,
170
00:07:54,474 --> 00:07:57,781
but what it is going to
do is latch on and then
171
00:07:57,912 --> 00:07:59,566
whap me with that rostrum.
172
00:07:59,696 --> 00:08:02,307
And just a little bit of that
saliva getting into my system
173
00:08:02,438 --> 00:08:04,788
is going to be
unbelievably painful.
174
00:08:04,919 --> 00:08:07,051
This will probably be worse
than any of the insect
175
00:08:07,182 --> 00:08:08,313
stings I've taken.
176
00:08:08,444 --> 00:08:09,793
Remember, guys this
is not a sting,
177
00:08:09,924 --> 00:08:11,926
this is a bite, very different.
178
00:08:12,056 --> 00:08:13,188
So is it venom?
179
00:08:13,318 --> 00:08:15,103
It's not
technically venom,
180
00:08:15,233 --> 00:08:17,975
but it works like venom in
that the enzymes and peptides
181
00:08:18,106 --> 00:08:20,021
in the saliva are
modified and break
182
00:08:20,151 --> 00:08:21,936
down the insides of the victim.
183
00:08:22,066 --> 00:08:23,851
And you may be asking yourself
well, something like this,
184
00:08:23,981 --> 00:08:25,505
does it have any predators?
185
00:08:25,635 --> 00:08:27,245
Well, certainly, a
bird could eat it,
186
00:08:27,376 --> 00:08:28,769
a large snapping
turtle could eat it,
187
00:08:28,899 --> 00:08:30,466
but they are
incredibly camouflaged.
188
00:08:30,597 --> 00:08:32,337
Let me turn it like this.
189
00:08:32,468 --> 00:08:35,645
Take a look at its back there,
it looks just like a leaf.
190
00:08:35,776 --> 00:08:38,430
Here, I will just pick this
leaf up off the ground,
191
00:08:38,561 --> 00:08:40,432
hold that next to the container.
192
00:08:40,563 --> 00:08:43,348
Now, if you were mucking
around in a little pond
193
00:08:43,479 --> 00:08:45,133
like we have here behind
us, where we caught it,
194
00:08:45,263 --> 00:08:47,701
and you just saw it sitting
there, just like that,
195
00:08:47,831 --> 00:08:51,008
completely still floating, you
would have no idea that that
196
00:08:51,139 --> 00:08:53,315
was an insect and not a leaf.
197
00:08:53,445 --> 00:08:54,969
Pretty incredible, huh?
198
00:08:55,099 --> 00:08:58,233
Another name for this insect
is the electric light bug.
199
00:08:58,363 --> 00:09:00,844
That's because, in places,
especially like Florida, where
200
00:09:00,975 --> 00:09:02,803
you have this large
halogen lamps,
201
00:09:02,933 --> 00:09:04,674
they will be drawn
in by the hundreds.
202
00:09:04,805 --> 00:09:05,980
And oftentimes,
people just think
203
00:09:06,110 --> 00:09:07,242
that they're flying roaches.
204
00:09:07,372 --> 00:09:08,765
If you go near one
and you pick it up,
205
00:09:08,896 --> 00:09:10,462
you stand a chance
of being bitten.
206
00:09:10,593 --> 00:09:13,509
So if you see a bunch of bugs
fluttering around a light
207
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:14,945
and they're about
the size of a leaf,
208
00:09:15,076 --> 00:09:16,730
just admire them
from a safe distance,
209
00:09:16,860 --> 00:09:19,210
guys, because it's a bite that
you're never going to forget.
210
00:09:19,341 --> 00:09:22,431
So to be
clear, not just in the water,
211
00:09:22,562 --> 00:09:24,041
these things fly.
212
00:09:24,172 --> 00:09:26,043
Yes, not just
terrorists beneath the surface
213
00:09:26,174 --> 00:09:27,828
but also terrorists in the air.
214
00:09:27,958 --> 00:09:28,872
Yeah, didn't
we find one in the parking lot
215
00:09:29,003 --> 00:09:30,613
once in Florida?
We did.
216
00:09:30,744 --> 00:09:32,354
Yeah, it was actually inside
of my boot, believe it or not.
217
00:09:32,484 --> 00:09:33,790
Yeah, I think I actually
took a photo of it
218
00:09:33,921 --> 00:09:35,400
and posted it on Instagram.
219
00:09:35,531 --> 00:09:38,273
Yeah, now, what's interesting
is that this is a male.
220
00:09:38,403 --> 00:09:40,101
You know how I know that?
221
00:09:40,231 --> 00:09:42,407
The males carry
eggs on their backs,
222
00:09:42,538 --> 00:09:45,541
and I can see that
this one has a few eggs
223
00:09:45,672 --> 00:09:47,543
still hanging on to it.
224
00:09:47,674 --> 00:09:49,371
This is one of
those rare species
225
00:09:49,501 --> 00:09:52,287
that you have the male
taking care of the young,
226
00:09:52,417 --> 00:09:54,071
making sure that
they are protected
227
00:09:54,202 --> 00:09:57,031
until they can form into larva
and then swim off on their own.
228
00:09:57,161 --> 00:09:58,772
They're
quite strong, right?
229
00:09:58,902 --> 00:09:59,947
They're like little Popeye arms.
230
00:10:00,077 --> 00:10:01,731
They are super strong.
231
00:10:01,862 --> 00:10:04,038
Actually, you want me to take
it out of the little container
232
00:10:04,168 --> 00:10:05,605
here so you guys get
some better shots.
233
00:10:09,217 --> 00:10:11,132
I'm going to gently reach right
down in there and pick it up.
234
00:10:11,262 --> 00:10:12,699
You ready?
235
00:10:12,829 --> 00:10:14,396
Delicate
little maneuver here.
236
00:10:26,321 --> 00:10:27,583
I'm gonna
sit it down the table
237
00:10:27,714 --> 00:10:28,976
and pick it up
right from its back.
238
00:10:35,678 --> 00:10:38,072
You see how they
scurry like that?
239
00:10:38,202 --> 00:10:40,291
It's unbelievably powerful.
240
00:10:40,422 --> 00:10:41,945
Let me turn it
like that for you.
241
00:10:42,076 --> 00:10:43,294
Look at the underside.
242
00:10:43,425 --> 00:10:45,340
Actually, you know
what, let me grab
243
00:10:45,470 --> 00:10:46,733
that leaf again because
now we can see it
244
00:10:46,863 --> 00:10:47,908
better it's out of the water.
245
00:10:48,038 --> 00:10:49,344
Oh, it's so strong.
246
00:10:49,474 --> 00:10:52,869
So look at the underside
as compared to a leaf.
247
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,872
Underside of the leaf,
underside of the water bug,
248
00:10:56,003 --> 00:10:57,395
almost identical, right?
249
00:10:57,526 --> 00:10:58,483
Really
hard to spot in the water.
250
00:10:58,614 --> 00:11:00,747
Yeah.
251
00:11:00,877 --> 00:11:02,009
Look at the eyes.
252
00:11:02,139 --> 00:11:03,358
Let me tilt it
forward a little bit.
253
00:11:03,488 --> 00:11:05,839
They actually have
really good eyesight.
254
00:11:05,969 --> 00:11:08,842
Those eyes reflect
red if you shine
255
00:11:08,972 --> 00:11:10,408
a flashlight into the water.
256
00:11:10,539 --> 00:11:12,628
That's how you can identify
one of these insects.
257
00:11:12,759 --> 00:11:15,805
It's trying to get me,
its so angry right now.
258
00:11:18,808 --> 00:11:20,941
You can see on the
back here, it has
259
00:11:21,071 --> 00:11:25,423
a joint that allows it to move
its head forward and backward.
260
00:11:25,554 --> 00:11:31,429
That's how they can drive
that rostrum into their prey.
261
00:11:31,560 --> 00:11:33,649
You know,
they do say there's a fine line
262
00:11:33,780 --> 00:11:34,824
between bravery and stupidity.
263
00:11:34,955 --> 00:11:36,521
Where does this fall?
264
00:11:36,652 --> 00:11:40,482
This falls into the
complete realm of insanity,
265
00:11:40,612 --> 00:11:43,093
I would say.
266
00:11:43,224 --> 00:11:45,487
I still remember the day
that I was bitten by one.
267
00:11:45,617 --> 00:11:48,011
I mean, it's incredibly painful.
268
00:11:48,142 --> 00:11:50,927
I mean, you guys are going to
see me in unbelievable agony
269
00:11:51,058 --> 00:11:53,277
here relatively soon.
270
00:11:53,408 --> 00:11:55,758
I've climbed the insect
sting pain index,
271
00:11:55,889 --> 00:11:59,283
and when it comes to facing
my fears of the two creepiest
272
00:11:59,414 --> 00:12:03,853
crawlies in the bug world,
bugs as a generalization,
273
00:12:03,984 --> 00:12:07,988
the giant water bug and
the giant desert centipede
274
00:12:08,118 --> 00:12:11,469
are the two things that just
absolutely make my skin crawl.
275
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,384
So in
a way, this is not only
276
00:12:13,515 --> 00:12:17,388
going to be educational and
enlightening for all of us
277
00:12:17,519 --> 00:12:18,868
walking, but for
yourself, this is
278
00:12:18,999 --> 00:12:20,609
a way to move past
any of those fears
279
00:12:20,740 --> 00:12:22,219
left over from your childhood.
280
00:12:22,350 --> 00:12:26,702
Yeah, this is for
me a true moment of insane
281
00:12:26,833 --> 00:12:28,878
bravery, insane bravery.
282
00:12:29,009 --> 00:12:29,792
Oh boy.
283
00:12:29,923 --> 00:12:30,750
Yeah.
284
00:12:34,362 --> 00:12:36,103
Oh, my poor toe.
285
00:12:36,233 --> 00:12:37,713
Give
it one more look.
286
00:12:37,844 --> 00:12:42,979
Oh man, this is
craziness, absolute craziness.
287
00:12:43,110 --> 00:12:44,764
OK.
288
00:12:44,894 --> 00:12:47,244
Oh, man, I don't know how
I can go through with this.
289
00:12:47,375 --> 00:12:48,680
Just
you could just, like,
290
00:12:48,811 --> 00:12:49,899
accidentally drop
it, and it could
291
00:12:50,030 --> 00:12:51,596
scurry back off into the water.
292
00:12:51,727 --> 00:12:52,728
Yeah, maybe I throw it up
in the air, and it flies away.
293
00:13:01,432 --> 00:13:08,135
GoPro rolling, water
bug out of the container
294
00:13:08,265 --> 00:13:09,266
without being bitten.
295
00:13:18,710 --> 00:13:20,060
Whoa, it is so strong.
296
00:13:20,190 --> 00:13:21,104
The grip?
297
00:13:21,235 --> 00:13:22,540
Good grip, good grip.
298
00:13:31,288 --> 00:13:34,509
Time
to face your fears.
299
00:13:34,639 --> 00:13:35,597
Are we ready?
300
00:13:35,727 --> 00:13:36,641
We are ready.
301
00:13:39,253 --> 00:13:42,082
OK, here we go.
302
00:13:42,212 --> 00:13:43,997
I'm Coyote Peterson.
303
00:13:44,127 --> 00:13:49,741
I'm about to be bitten by
the toe biter on my big toe.
304
00:13:49,872 --> 00:13:54,964
Here we go, one two, three.
305
00:14:04,060 --> 00:14:07,803
Get it back
in the container.
306
00:14:18,814 --> 00:14:20,642
It's just as
bad as I remember.
307
00:14:27,605 --> 00:14:29,694
Oh, that is worse than a sting.
308
00:14:32,523 --> 00:14:33,307
Goodness.
309
00:14:33,437 --> 00:14:34,786
Dude, you are bleeding.
310
00:14:37,615 --> 00:14:39,269
I hope you
guys got that shot.
311
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,011
We got it.
312
00:14:42,142 --> 00:14:43,578
Think you got it, too, man.
313
00:14:43,708 --> 00:14:45,232
Your big toe is messed up.
314
00:14:49,018 --> 00:14:53,109
This, guys,
is worse than a sting.
315
00:14:57,679 --> 00:14:59,507
Let me put my
foot up here on the table.
316
00:14:59,637 --> 00:15:01,639
Oh, sorry guys, I knocked the
whole thing of water over,
317
00:15:01,770 --> 00:15:02,814
it almost got away.
318
00:15:02,945 --> 00:15:05,382
I got it, it's OK.
319
00:15:05,513 --> 00:15:07,297
OK, look at my toe.
320
00:15:07,428 --> 00:15:09,778
The rostrum went deep
enough in, right at to tip
321
00:15:09,909 --> 00:15:13,869
there, to draw blood, and I also
was just squeezing it as much
322
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,132
as I could, trying to
get the saliva out.
323
00:15:16,263 --> 00:15:18,874
And there wasn't a lot of
saliva that went in, but man,
324
00:15:19,005 --> 00:15:22,443
did it just scream
in pain immediately.
325
00:15:22,573 --> 00:15:25,489
Oh, my foot is throbbing.
326
00:15:25,620 --> 00:15:33,149
Oh, this is like, this is like
dropping a brick on your toe.
327
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:34,150
I can't move my toe.
328
00:15:45,466 --> 00:15:47,207
Wow.
329
00:15:47,337 --> 00:15:48,817
Oh, gosh, that really hurts.
330
00:15:51,776 --> 00:15:53,735
That's really bad.
331
00:15:53,865 --> 00:15:54,736
It still hurt?
332
00:15:54,866 --> 00:15:56,564
Oh, man, it walloped me.
333
00:15:56,694 --> 00:16:00,785
I could feel that rostrum
go, whoosh, into my toe
334
00:16:00,916 --> 00:16:02,483
deep enough to draw blood.
335
00:16:02,613 --> 00:16:04,311
Wow.
336
00:16:04,441 --> 00:16:10,273
A lot thicker in
gauge than like the stinger
337
00:16:10,404 --> 00:16:13,189
of a bullet ant or a wasp.
338
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:14,582
Man.
339
00:16:14,712 --> 00:16:17,585
Oh, hold on, let me walk
around for a second.
340
00:16:17,715 --> 00:16:19,674
Oh, man, my toe is throbbing.
341
00:16:23,112 --> 00:16:25,027
Man, it still hurts, but not
as much of the initial impact.
342
00:16:25,158 --> 00:16:26,768
Do you
think you got a full bite?
343
00:16:26,898 --> 00:16:32,556
Yeah, I mean, it went
it deep enough to pierce skin.
344
00:16:32,687 --> 00:16:33,601
OK.
345
00:16:41,565 --> 00:16:43,524
Sorry guys, I'm trying
to stay composed here.
346
00:16:43,654 --> 00:16:45,787
Oh, my foot is throbbing.
347
00:16:48,833 --> 00:16:52,750
Man, my foot is
starting to itch.
348
00:16:52,881 --> 00:16:55,753
Now, that is definitely
one way to face your fears,
349
00:16:55,884 --> 00:16:59,888
and the giant water bug
has terrified my dreams
350
00:17:00,019 --> 00:17:01,585
since I was a little kid.
351
00:17:01,716 --> 00:17:03,109
I spent a lot of time out in
the swamps catching snapping
352
00:17:03,239 --> 00:17:05,633
turtles, and every time
I jump in, I wonder,
353
00:17:05,763 --> 00:17:08,723
is this the next time I'm going
to be bitten by the toe biter?
354
00:17:08,853 --> 00:17:11,639
Man, just as bad
as I just remember.
355
00:17:11,769 --> 00:17:14,685
I'm Sweating bullets right
now, my foot is throbbing.
356
00:17:14,816 --> 00:17:15,947
I think we're going
to need a perform
357
00:17:16,078 --> 00:17:17,079
a little first date
on my toe, I got
358
00:17:17,210 --> 00:17:18,863
to make sure this cleaned out.
359
00:17:18,994 --> 00:17:20,561
Obviously, I got mud and stuff
all over myself at this point,
360
00:17:20,691 --> 00:17:26,654
but if you guys come across a
giant water bug in the wild,
361
00:17:26,784 --> 00:17:27,829
don't try to pick it up.
362
00:17:27,959 --> 00:17:29,222
The bite is bad.
363
00:17:29,352 --> 00:17:31,137
If you're bitten on
your toe, maybe the bite
364
00:17:31,267 --> 00:17:32,747
is worse than anywhere
else, I don't know.
365
00:17:32,877 --> 00:17:34,227
It is extremely painful.
366
00:17:43,105 --> 00:17:44,628
It is really bad.
367
00:17:44,759 --> 00:17:48,284
It is worse than any sting,
I think, that I've taken.
368
00:17:48,415 --> 00:17:49,894
It's a
different kind of pain?
369
00:17:50,025 --> 00:17:51,505
It's a different
kind of pain, yeah.
370
00:17:51,635 --> 00:17:55,074
It's like, man, I
don't think a lot
371
00:17:55,204 --> 00:17:58,860
of the saliva got into my toe,
but it is throbbing right now.
372
00:17:58,990 --> 00:18:00,949
It just feels like I want
to take a rubber band
373
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,560
and cut off the circulation to
my toe so I stop feeling it.
374
00:18:06,998 --> 00:18:09,131
OK, I'm gonna try to
give you an outro here.
375
00:18:09,262 --> 00:18:12,874
All right, guys, well, part
one issue facing my fears,
376
00:18:13,004 --> 00:18:17,444
being bitten by the giant water
bug, also known as the toe
377
00:18:17,574 --> 00:18:20,490
biter, has officially happened.
378
00:18:20,621 --> 00:18:24,451
Next up, I'm going to be bitten
by the giant desert centipede,
379
00:18:24,581 --> 00:18:26,844
which is rumored to have
the most painful bite
380
00:18:26,975 --> 00:18:30,021
in the creepy crawler kingdom.
381
00:18:30,152 --> 00:18:32,241
I don't know how I'm going to
possibly go through with what
382
00:18:32,372 --> 00:18:34,417
that is, but stay tuned, guys.
383
00:18:34,548 --> 00:18:36,854
There is one bite left to come.
384
00:18:36,985 --> 00:18:38,682
I'm Coyote Peterson.
385
00:18:38,813 --> 00:18:45,036
Be brave, stay wild, we'll
see on the next adventure.
386
00:18:45,167 --> 00:18:48,127
Oh, man, that is,
this is really bad.
387
00:18:48,257 --> 00:18:51,347
I
got a first aid kit.
388
00:18:51,478 --> 00:18:53,088
Since childhood, I
389
00:18:53,219 --> 00:18:56,396
have feared the giant water
bug and its infamous bite,
390
00:18:56,526 --> 00:18:58,528
and I know you were
wondering was it
391
00:18:58,659 --> 00:19:00,704
truly as bad as I remembered?
392
00:19:00,835 --> 00:19:01,923
Yes.
393
00:19:02,053 --> 00:19:04,360
Yes, it was, and
there's absolutely
394
00:19:04,491 --> 00:19:06,971
no chance I will
ever be intentionally
395
00:19:07,102 --> 00:19:11,498
bitten by one of these alien
looking insects ever again.
396
00:19:11,628 --> 00:19:13,848
When it comes to
bites and stings,
397
00:19:13,978 --> 00:19:15,676
it's important to note
that there is a very
398
00:19:15,806 --> 00:19:17,634
big difference between the two.
399
00:19:17,765 --> 00:19:21,725
And oftentimes, it is the bites,
especially the venomous ones,
400
00:19:21,856 --> 00:19:24,641
that hurt the worst.
401
00:19:24,772 --> 00:19:26,861
In the case of the
giant water bug,
402
00:19:26,991 --> 00:19:29,385
not only is the puncture from
the rostrum powerful enough
403
00:19:29,516 --> 00:19:32,083
to draw blood, but
the digestive enzymes
404
00:19:32,214 --> 00:19:34,303
that also enter the
wound, literally
405
00:19:34,434 --> 00:19:36,087
feel as if they're
melting your cells.
406
00:19:39,439 --> 00:19:41,702
If you're an avid
wetlands explorer
407
00:19:41,832 --> 00:19:44,792
and want to avoid being
bitten by a giant water bug,
408
00:19:44,922 --> 00:19:47,273
simply remember this advice.
409
00:19:47,403 --> 00:19:50,276
Always wear long durable pants
when waiting in the water,
410
00:19:50,406 --> 00:19:53,104
and whatever you do, make
sure that a good pair of boots
411
00:19:53,235 --> 00:19:54,845
protects your feet.
412
00:19:54,976 --> 00:19:57,848
This way your toes will never
experience the painful bite
413
00:19:57,979 --> 00:20:00,068
of a toe biter.
