Gav and Dan are at the Singapore Zoo to see the Mata Mata turtle eat a meal in a split second, the super fast chameleon’s tongue and the Gaboon Viper, one of the fastest-striking snakes in the world.
@@SladeBallard just look up achievement hunter wet bread(there is multiple videos of it), something about the consistency just makes him want to throw up lol
So slow in comparison to creatures like these, they've had a lot more time to evolve. We do have our superweapon of a brain though so be thankful for that and accept the sluggishness
It's good that he flinches still from time to time. I've worked in a petshop for 10 years, and flinching, and reflexes has saved me a bite on the hand way more times than I can count. Getting desensitized and comfortable is what gets you bit.
pretend you are on the sofa layong down and theres a table beside the sofe bit afew inches apart and there's a bowl of pop corn on the table If I feel abit lazy to get up and get the bowl instead I will use the tounge to get the popcorn
Fun fact, since humans evolved alongside snakes, where snakes were a big danger for humans for such a long period of time, it is physically nearly impossible not to recoil from a snake lunge. It is one of your most ingrained evolutionary instincts; recoiling specifically from snakes. It's even nearly impossible to train yourself to do it.
@@iMattcat Thats just stupid to say most of normal humans react like that to anything that scares them, and that is just normal reaction, not beacause we "evolved" alongside snakes...
@@TheDarthmaul252 Kakarot, you are 100% correct that we reflexively react to anything that surprises us like that. But we also have built-in reflexes to different things; you reflex differently from a hot stove than from a jump-scare. However, over the period of thousands of years, the people who reacted the strongest to humans' predators would survive and reproduce. So it makes sense that we have specific reflexes to predators like snakes, eagles, and big cats, because they were always around us. The reflexes we have to these predators are nearly impossible to learn to overcome. You can train yourself to not flinch when someone slaps you, but you'll find that it is much, much harder to not flinch from a snake strike.
I don't know if anyone reads these comments, but the way cats drink sounds like it would be interesting in slow-mo. Basically they plunge their tongue straight down into the water, then close their mouth around the droplet which shoots upwards as the water fills the void. Plus, I hear RU-vid is fond of cat videos.
Have to say, Planet Slow Mo is much more interesting than the Super Slow Show. You're actually filming things no one has ever seen at those speeds before, which is both educational and highly entertaining. I particularly like the segments on filming animals (I think insects would be great subjects), as you can get so much information from the footage. Keep it up!
Oh and it also starts with a b That lies between a and c AC? Get it ACs make a room cool You know b is cool because it lies between ac Yeah yeah i know im genius
@@XenosvonFaneli If they bate them and wait by a river where they are all flying around they could probably get a dragon fly easily enough. The robber fly would be tricky though. They might need to go someplace where they are studied for that.
Gav: So that probaly just shoots straight into the stomach. Dan: I wish I could do that. Gav: Just sit down at a table... swish, "check please" LMAO that made my whole day
Mr.Gavin Free the king of ridiculous questions, even he thought "that's a ridiculous question" when Dan asked if he would have a tongue like a chameleon haha
You were so very close to making my biggest slo mo guys video wish come true. I would like to suggest filming a snapping turtle in an aquarium eating minnows. Fantastic job as always guys, Thank You!
they can break the glass in aquariums so not many people around would have them... then they have to want to eat in front of the camera (they usually do in burrows)
The guy feeding the snake: "Oh, that strike startled me!" Me: "AND BEING NEXT TO IT IN THE CAGE IS JUST FINE?!" The guy feeding the snake: "Yeah." Me:"...legend."
The thing about chameleon camouflage is it's not 100% perfect and see-through like you'd believe. It's more of a shift of colors to blend in with surroundings like your typical army camouflage.
It’s actually not for camouflage more emotions like they get really bright when they want to get a mate or “fight” other males they get darker when they are cold and need to absorb light

Dan : " If you could have tounge like this, would you ?" Gav : ( Processing for a sec... ) "Probably not." My dirty mind : "I think Meg would have a different say" *Wink wink nudge nudge*
