Check out Jurgen's videos. He is the best of the best when it comes to Peacock Spider footage....
I apologize for the mistake in labelling the spiders. The second one is Maratus Pardus. Of course I missed something that obvious in the edit.
Imagine how confused they must be about human relationships. No iridescent butt, and sometimes we don't even kill each other after mating.
sometimes
The Dog Vlog
Sometimes?
Elf ie Most of the time?
-_-
Spiderfrank's True Facts - Human mating.
And that is how the human do.
"This butt don't sweat, but it could knit you a sweater"
I'm speechless
Doug Funny I heard “lift your sweater,” and now there’s a new fetish in the world. #spider/sweater
That part will be stuck in my head for a good while.
I need a follow-up video on this.
I'm your 2000th like *0*
Speechless .....SPEECHLESS
THIS SONG TRIGGERED MY FIGHT OR FLIGHT RESPONSE AND WHICH SIDE WON
Fun fact, the male peacock spiders aren't only dancing, but "singing", their little dances send out vibrations in the ground that the female peacock spider can pick up on with her little feets.
Spider got rhythm!
Is it always in the Funk genre, or do they also do like, R and B or something?
That was put so cutely...
lol@"her little feets"!
This is so cute omggggggg
Zefrank sees an animal mating dance: *THIS NEEDS A SONG*
Puffin muffin stuffin'.
OSTRICH! OSTRICH!
That's how the zefrank do
@@user-nt6ts9pq5o this made me more happy then it should have lmao
Its free real estate
Our boy Frank been flexin' his singing skills lately.
Please continue.
He’s been flexing those skills for a long time, just not much on this channel. Look up his TedTalks to hear about a bunch of projects he’s worked on, most of which are music based
Dorkish: thanks!
Regina Lee No problem! He’s done a lot of amazing things besides his “True Facts” series, so I’m always glad to spread the word about it lol
So cool thx
Actually, back in the day. He did lead vocals and played bass, even.
"I don't think this is gonna work... Geometrically"
Had me DYING I swear
On second thought, "Wait are you kidding me? This part turns around? You're like a transformer! I know you said stop talking but this is amazing!" Was better
@@Ion_H
Although that specific spider had not said to be quiet tho, that was the other spider
THIS!! ALL of the vid was AWESOME. But I came looking for this comment!!😁😁😁😁
Along with "... I don't really know how this works "😆
Gotta twist themselves into a sexagon.
I can imagine trying to get Quinta on board “hey, wanna pretend to be mating spiders for a video I’m doing?”
“Is it a porn-“
“ITS NOT A PORNO!”
Same for the Ostrich video
"But I do have a link to the Isabella Rossilini videos."
"Who doesn't?"
@@ryanyeager7297 ......I had to look that up. I was very scared when IMDB had a link to Green Porno.
Omg, that was Quinta?!?
@@ryanyeager7297 sauce? Despite the joke, I for one do not have the link to that video. So gib it!
*Pro Tip:* This does NOT work for humans.
Just take my word for it.
Fun fact : Much like the Black Widow, females kill the male peacock spider right after the copulating.
That's how spiders deeeew.
Hey. Don't kink shame me.
Kink shaming is my KINK
You didn't get killed either, soooo...
in human world, its the female that shaking their butt and the male eat the female..not literally eating
They sound like they're seriously enjoying the voice acting😆
Voice acting?
This is not voice acting they are actually secretly recording spiders hooking up
This is so fucking amazing
I mean they are
I'm enjoying the voice acting. Was perfect! :)
Imagine if Peter Parker was bitten by *THIS* spider.
Well he'll be even more colourful
That would explain Toby in Spiderman 3...
Spider-Pimp!
He would've beaten every one of his villains via dance off...
@@setsurarara he'll have a colourful butt
The best thing about these spiders is there's a species called "Sparklemuffin". Yes really.
Jerry must've named them.
Auma the Warrior Mouse Whaaaaat? Seriously, I’m looking this up on Google.
@@yvellebradley2502 Named by Madeline Girard:
th-cam.com/video/mq-r20mlGes/w-d-xo.html&feature=emb_title
SciFri did a video on these little guys too.
Dammit, Jerry.
“No- [scoffs] Jerry... We’re tryi- We want to be reSPECted in the scientific community... Why would you- No, ‘side-eye’ is not respect. [pause] Neither is- No, they’re NOT laughing *with* us... Jerry, c’mon...”
Occasionally Jerry does something right.
3:08
"Wait, are you kidding me- this part _TURNS AROUND???_ You're like a TRANSFORMER! I know you said 'Stop. Talking.', but this is
*a m a z i n g."*
The best line! 😅
Its a classic already..
I’m dead 😂
we all watched the video
And 5ha5 is when he knew ..he fucked 79...and got eaten...
Other spiders "Stealth mode activated." "Don't run you'll nly die tired"
Peacock spider "VIVA CARNIVAL!!!"
I LIKE TA MOVE IT MOVE IT
I LIKE TA MOVE IT MOVE IT
I LIKE TA *MOVE IT!*
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, yeah.
Things I didn't expect in this vid:
A hot jam.
A spidy booty dance.
That is exactly what I expected from this channel
@Mark Allen Hanginan You must be new.
I also bet you didn't expect the last spider to look like a bearded Jew wearing sun glasses and a pope hat! (4:02)
Apparently you've never seen Peter Parker at his side hustle 🤣
The little head tilt on the female when she says, "Is that yoga?" Is just...gold, seriously.
Jumping spider fans are always being accused of anthropomorphising the spiders but honestly their behaviour, head tilts and “expressions” make it almost impossible not to.
The only thing that makes me sad is how short these are.
Always leave em wanting more!
I'm having flashbacks from the orgy I went to.
@@KG-th3cr You may be confusing flashbacks with fantasizing
Blame oxygen concentration and gravity... oh sorry, you didn't mean the spiders, my bad.
@@andygreen3575 Yr comment's so stealth I had to come back for a thumbs up after I started laughing after clicking away.
I have a feeling
that Zefrank is low key just flexing us his singing skills at this point
and I love it
Singing skills? Well, not really imo.
But songwriting skills? *Holy fuck yes*
LOW KEY? LOL
Justified 👍🏽😂 he can sing
That is how Zefrank do.
"Hi im pete!"
"Cool pete,dont give a (bleep) get over here"
"Uhm.."
🤣
This is quite literally the only time I've ever been able to look at a spider and not scream like a small child.
Well done Zefrank you've done the impossible.
If you haven't already, look up Lucas the spider. You won't regret it.
@@squidbro6635 I've seen him before, he kinda creeps me out.
Thank the peacock spider too!
Lol same here
i also have an irrational fear of spiders.
and i also enjoyed this video very much
“I don’t think it will work... geometrically... WAIT- THIS THING CAN TURN AROUND?!? YOU’RE LIKE A TRANSFORMER!” I can’t fcking sto laughing someone send help xDD
Right xD
“ I know you said to stop talking, but this is AMAZING!” Is what slayed me.
...and "I know you said stop talking, but ..."
Nobody:
Scientist: *intense videotaping other species having sex*
For, uh, research....
Imagine still using "Nobody: " jokes.
@@anonymoustechnology8843 They got the whole squad laughing
I’m already Sans Undertale sometimes they're funny, but when like thousands of people start doing nobody quotes using the same lines from the vid it can wear out its welcome.
I imagine the camera man slowly unzipping his pants
"You're like a transformer!" that line broke me, I'm crying
CoffeeBurps same XD
I heard that and went "Oh, didn't know Ryan Reynolds spent his downtime as various male jumping spiders."
Should compile an album with the title "Ze Frank: Wonderful World of Mating Dance Songs“
Please do
Jr. High Guidance Counselor: "So, Mr. Zefrank, do you have plans for your life?"
"I want to write sexy songs spiders sing to each other, and then have people watch movies about them. On their phones."
"Yes... I see... well, that's an interesting option... say, you sit right there... I'll be right back... with some nice people... who will take you somewhere safe..."
That would be actually really cool, producing music and having spiders dance it in the official video, and on stage - hologram spiders
1.5 million views later and they realized that there aren't enough padded rooms for all of us.
sdduj
Fantastic sense of humor! Thank you.
Whimsy? Illegal
Listen we still aren’t past the puffin song at my house. I wasn’t ready for a new anthem.
Death Becomes Her - That one's THE BEST .
Oh LAWD dey got da puffin shuffle back at da house!
Puffin song was the best but this is great!
this puffin got some stuffin fo yo puffin muffin.
@@Astrithor i gotta see boobies, like we're in a B movie
This guy is having way too much fun as a human
I love how every pick-up line in the animal kingdom is: "Hi! my name is Pete!"
*Songs about animals doing a mating dancing is my new favorite genre of music*
Same
I had no idea there was something I would enjoy as much or more than metal, and that's actually VERY metal 🤣🤣🤘🏻
Jerry deserves a raise.
No...Jerry is a Dave
Not til David does.
Maaaaan...fuck Jerry
Let's be honest, it's the "hungry for apples?" guy. He's not getting a raise.
@@SuperBellyflop Only if you wanna get pregnant at 17 loool
Cannot begin to express the JOY of rediscovering this video, only to then realize it features FREAKIN QUINTA BRUNSON!!!!!!
So this is where Peter Parker got his dancing moves from.
😂😂😂😂
Nice.. I see whatcha did there.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
you have 911 likes, I didn't want to change it.
Imagine Zefranks grandchildren listening to their grandfather.
OK, i imagined it 3 ways with the kids' friends being there.
Indifferent:
'MOM grandpa's doing it again, we're trying to watch TV.'
Embarrassed:
'Come to my room, we'll play something, don't listen to him, he's old.'
Proud:
'Check this out, you're in for a treat, my grandpa says the coolest things.' (But like young people would actually say it, lol)
Omgoodness 🤣🤣🤣
"Today we will explore true facts about my childhood"
an amusing idea, zefrank passing on his wisdom to grandbebehs.
"Is that yoga?" "I think so, it hurts." LOL
I kinda like that we now all know that "Mating Dance" is Zefrank's code for "Yes, there's a song."
"Look At This Butt"
by Pete the Spider
Look at this butt 🍑
I know you can't help it
Waitin' in line, see a butt like mine, you feel helpless
This butt don't sweat
But it can knit you a sweater
You ain't never gonna see a better sweater-weather sweater than a butt-knit sweater
Mmm~ Happy time! 🕷
I know you see this hiney
It's such a shiny hiney
Arms are loose
Knees are bendin'
Peacock straight up like the needle on the compass of a South Pole penguin
My body shakes
Knees start shakin'
Got gristle in the middle but the back's all stacked like fat back bacon
Mmm~ Happy time! 🕷
I know you see this hiney
It's such a shiny hiney
I know you see this hiney
It's such a shiny hiney 🕺🕺
🤣

Thank you 🦋🌈🇦🇺
Such elegance 😂
I want Zefrank songs on my spotify
The world needs more heroes like you.
Shawna Sams absolutely I 100% agree. I think he’s got three now. At least three I can remember. But I do love them. Again by far my favourite is the ostrich song. The first one that came out. I’ve watched and listen to it so many times. And I’m a 45 year old woman. I can’t get enough of it. 🤪 cherieK 🦋🌈🇦🇺
Legitimately thought Beck had written a song about spider mating for a second. Awesome work Zefrank
"I can do this."
"I-is that yoga?"
"I-I think so it H U R T S."
Best line in the video! Hahaha!
When is Zefrank1's "Wonders of a sexy nature" album coming out?
That is the PERFECT title!
incredible
KOALAS IN THE RAIN
I couldn't help but sing along with it lol
I would absolutely pay money for it
Jerry. Quinta. This project was downright legendary. Incredibly well done, you two. Absolutely hysterical!
ZeFrank’s singing voice is the greatest thing in the world. I can’t wait for the album drop.
Imagine him singing some of pink floyd songs.
He was in a band once
The puffin song is the best one so far.
"You're like a Transformer!"
So, Blackarachnia, basically?
Nerd Cred +10
Beast Wars referenence? Sweet! That wolf dude was so funny as an old-school gentleman.
Remember that time Blackarachnia double crossed, only to double cross her double cross...twice?
@@geoleo965 Silverbolt. He wasn't just a wolf. He was one of the first Fuzors. He's part wolf, part bird of prey like a hawk or eagle.
@@Donut0389 Correct! I had a blast with Beast Wars, but sadly, I couldn't follow up its sequel, the one when they return to their planet and become pseudo-organic...
It didn't have the spark and charm than the original one, at least for me, nor enjoyed their new design... Plus, the poor rhino guy.
EDIT- And let's not forget about Rattrap's snarkiness... So many enjoyable characters!
"However, this is not just some flossing at a middle school prom which was held in the gymnasium because someone got the measles."
Golden.
Y'all, if you aren't a part of Ze Frank's Patreon, you're missing out. I joined recently and watching his creative process is incredible.
+
🥰
His Ted Talks are amazeballs
@MorTobXD Early looks at clips he's using and narration, MP3s of the songs he makes, candid discussion with his community about ideas he's pursuing and how he's going about putting those ideas together. I got a message from him directly thanking me for my support, and we had a short back and forth. That really felt special because I've been a fan of his for so long. If you appreciate what he's doing and want to show more support than just watching and sharing his content, I think Patreon is probably the best way to do it.
Well I guess I know what I'm doing with my money once I actually have money
I love these spiders, lol. I did a whole presentation about them for a speech and writing class. Even the people afraid of spiders loved it. From a distance. But they were supportive.
**Offers long- distance COVID-era hug** YAY! Another Jumping Spider fan! I can never remember the species names, 'cuz I'm a total kludge about that--I'm not a biologist--but whenever I see an image of one when I'm down, or better, a clip of one **dancing**, I cheer right up, at least for a little while. Depression sucks, so ya gotta have a relief valve. LOL
A newly described one is called Sparklemuffin. See SciFri's peacock spider episode. It is _excellent._
I hope you talked about the jumping spiders
Alight, I'm gonna be honest here. For the past 3 days I've been binge watching this channel every night. This is the one that broke me. Fucking genius. Keep teaching me about nature!
I wonder what zefrank's mating dance looks like...
Are you sure that the world is ready for such majesty?
...I'm scared to know...
I remember it involves Doritos and a nap
Its beutefu (yes tht its a joke)
Weird flopping on the floor
“It’s such a shiny hinny.”
Before this comment, I kept hearing honey' and was like 'okaaaaaay? Is that some new kind of interent lingo i'm not yet aware of?'
I drive a truck for a living. a shiney hiney is an old term for a refrigerated trailer. They coat the back of the trailer with a reflective material to help the content inside stay a little cooler.
Darlin', you spelled 'hiney' wrong. Also, I agree, hilarious line.
"This butt don't sweat, but it can knit you a sweater."
Genius
I found my new pick up line:
“ I put deodorant on all of my pits, but these two..”
*Gets closer*
“..are the easiest for you, to, uhh...”
*Runs away*
Date me!
+
What? You're gonna say the whole thing, asterisk and all?
"This butt doesn't sweat...but it can make you a sweater..."
13/10
Should end it right there - "all of my pits, but these two" - and go for a hug.
"This butt don't sweat, but it can knit you a sweater" bahahahahahah GOLD
You have truly terrifying species of spiders, and then you have the absolutely adorable potats that are the peacock spiders and jumping spiders, AKA: the dancey bois and jumpy bois.
So you're saying that my chances at getting a girl will significantly improve if I paint my ass with pearlescent purples and reds?
Neat.
Nope. It'll really help your chances at the gay bars though!
Only when you are into spiders
I mean it will definitely get our attention!
As a girl, I can confirm that that will work
@@13thMaiden Yeah, but there's good attention and there's bad attention.
Please ZeFrank never leave
The world needs to know more about Queen Latifah spiders
I’ve watched this about 40 times. This is my favourite Zfrank video. They’re all so great and so hilarious that it’s hard to have a favourite, but this is it. Tops. Epic. Wonderful. Zfrank, I hope you never change. You’re a treasure.
What did you learn today, kids?
Much less alive = dead really.
Peacock Spider : "Hey look at me" \oo/

*Hi, I’m Pete! :)*
Idk why but it’s kinda cute how he says that and raises one arm.
*2005:* TH-cam gets invented
*2020:* SPIDER BUTT VIDEOS
It’s all lead up to this.
And the apocalypse, butt that doesn’t matter.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Friends : so what music do you listen to ?
Me : it’s complicated
Thanks Zefrank, loved the display work and 'Ah, he was nice, I think I'm gonna fekk him up.'
"Hey I'm Pete!" Says the adorable peacock spider as he sticks out a leg. XD
These are freaking hilarious, but also surprisingly informative and interesting. Thanks for making science even more entertaining.
No problem.
We're getting a whole album of these funky mating songs, aren't we?
I hope
Ze Frank... officially the only person that can get an arachnophobe to sit and watch 4 minutes of spiders doing their spider stuff and actually enjoy it and giggle. Thanks.
Things I wasn't ready for today: A spider butt bop
there will never be a youtuber as great as Zefrank!! so glad he came back after all those years 😭
His butt can knit you a sweater because he's a spider. I just got it.
🤣😂
Welcome to the club dude.
Wrong. It's because he can throw it back it while clapping two knitting needles together to knit.
Bruh...👍. I cracked up when she said “Shake… That… Ass… For me!” And I about lost it when the music started. Hahaha 😂 🤣😂
Brilliant I was cracking the hell up!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Ditto. Art. It's just art
Bro I could not stop laughing. I was crying laughing for real
Quinta!!! Loving the narrations, @zefrank1 you two did great together.
"You just made this up, Jerry do the research."
I haven't clicked on this vid that fast in my life.
Some varieties of male spider literally jump into the mouths of their mates.
The females don't even try to kill them.
The males are just like Skeet and Yeet
Who would wanna raise 10 million little spider kids, amirite?
Alackofcaring Skeet and yet!!! LMFAO!!!
Vore
They are so cute! I love how they wave
so your saying its working?
@@starcultiniser yes ;)
Male spider: "wow you're enchanting."
Female spider: "back dat ass up."
'Arms are loose'
Knees are bendin'
Peacock straight up like the needle on a compass of a South Pole penguin🐧
My body shakes🎶🎶
Knees start shakin..
I gotta grissle in the middle
But the backs all stacked
Like fatback bacon🥓
'Oohm, happy time'🕷️🕸️
I Know you see this hiney,
it's such a shiny hiney🎶🎶
I know you see this hiney,
it's such a shiny hiney🕷️🕸️
Ok I'll admit I couldn't, for the life of me, understand what the third verse was saying so I guessed lol🕷️🕸️
You got WAY more than me ^-^ thanks for transcribing
im pretty sure he says
"happy time"
instead of
"hammer time"
Thanks, believe it or not I enjoyed his voice... Sings way better than some other "artists".
All of the third line is right except it's "peacock straight up like the needle on a compass of a South Pole penguin"
The part says "My butt shakes, knees start shakin'"
and it's "Ooh, happy time"
"I'm like a needle of a compass of a South pole penguin "
Bravo...just
..BRAVO!!!
WHERE IS DAVID? An episode without David is like a south park episode without Kenny. David is the Red Shirt in the landing party, knowing David he probably died before the episode even began filming
He died in the sand bubbler crab episode lol
he's not in the songs either.
Hello
Damn it David Fischer. You beat me to it
He wound up on the cutting room (and forest) floor because she didn't wanna marry him and he *seriously* misjudged his own desirability.
Ah, David -- never change.
I never clicked on something so fast lol... I love this channel
Quinta! I thought I recognized the voice! Thank you both for the very enjoyable voice overs.
So I assumed that because of the "Song about Freud" that his lyrical skills were funny but "meh", but turns out zefrank has a hidden talent for making funny sex jams. Who knew.
She was a perfect addition to this video. Great job all around 😂
This is probably the most under appreciated channel on TH-cam 🤣
The "Hi I'm Pete," line absoultely kills me.
And the "mmm... happy time," love it.
When I do my ‘’Mating Dance’ all the nurses restrain me and sedate me.
Kinky?
@@cerealbird6384 I dunno, I kinda want to see thins mating dance now, just for shits and giggles!
Doppio V. You’re lucky it’s not a fed agents
Listening to ur narrations... maKe me feel better when ever im depressed and heart broken
This was amazing! The dialogue was very funny, and the voices from our video author, and his esteemed guest Quinta were fantastic! To boot, I've been wanting to see zefrank1 taking on this beautiful spider.
I loved every moment! Great video!
"Wait, are you kidding me?! This part turns around?! You're like a Transformer! I know you said 'stop talking', but this is amazing!"
I'm dying, please send paramedics
By far my most favorite Ze Frank video to date...and we've been watching for years!
We need more Quinta! She had me rolling with laughter! 😂
I DEMAND THAT YOU NEVER STOP, ZEFRANK. NEVER EVER STOP DOING STUFF LIKE THIS. DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?
Lmfao Zefrank was definitely that one weird quiet kid in HS that every once in a while would say something hilarious out loud
A little late for Valentines Day but still, it justified getting out of bed this morning.
Thanks.
"Look at this butt" has a vocalist very reminiscent of "Seagulls!"
Both are Frank 😂
Exactly! But not the same. Ze stop singing. Your narrating is why I come here 🤣
Wish I knew what zefrank would say about the peacock spider shooting strands of web up in the air as it dances.
I knew the moment i saw the title that we would be treated to more of Zefrak's awesome Singing skills!
Love it. may favorite is still "This Puffin...got some...stuffin'... for your... Puffin muffin!"
0:52 the way he throws it up, it looks like he's flipping someone off.
Omg! You're right! Or like a come a me bro motion.
How did I manage to survive all these years without the spider butt shaking song? Complete at last!
This is one of the greatest things ever to bless the internet.
(also, so incredibly happy with how many uploads you've been putting out lately!)
just when I was already on a Puffin Stuffin' Ze odyssey I saw THIS and even more awesome!
I'm serious I'll buy this mixtape!
"Just so you know, i don't really know how this works"
The man has a point, He's a virgin. Unless...
anyone has already seen that hilarious edit of this spider with maracas ?
Check out peacock spider Star Wars...
There's a cute Christmas video with peacock spiders too 😁 search A Peacock Spider Christmas.
@@hruss257 that one's super cute
