Self-destructive behavior isn't always self-harm or negative self-talk. Sometimes, it's clicking on this video knowing exactly what you're going to get.
I recall 60-ish years ago seeing David Attenborough in a cave, on a hill of bat guano. Television then was only black and white and he described the stench of ammonia almost choking him. I wonder if this is the same cave.
@@GreatGrandmasterWang Thank you. lol Yes, I am old but Attenborough has always been something of a hero of mine because of his natural history TV shows. Things your interested in tend to stick with you, I guess.
@@AdamLachapelle2470 Yes, they did, Adam. Attenborough didn't mention methane (perhaps because it doesn't have an aroma unless mixed with something that does smell).
“What do we do with the interns ?” “Tell them to climb that giant pile of bat sh*t in the cave right there, but hurry up the Jaguars won’t wait all day !”
In fact the term "ecosystem" refers to whatever size while there is living stuff interdependant ;) so even a glass of water can be an ecosystem as well as a whole planet :)
This is what it should mean when someone says "I love wildlife." All wildlife, the bats, the crabs, the snakes, AND the cockroaches. Because, let's face it, when most people say they love animals, they're only talking about mammals.
@@samanthawhite2801 As a zoologist myself, I've never had any such fear. It's honestly much more of a learned trait than inherited. Plus the vast majority of rodent and cockroach species don't really pose threats to us. We just like to lump everything together.
I literally started grinding my teeth omg I can’t imagine seeing this in person. Shout out to everyone that worked on this. It’s simply amazing to see how animals and insect actually work together. 🦇 🪳
When I returned after a 2 week vacation to my rental apartment in a very hot country, I was shocked to see the entire carpet covered in roaches. You could not walk without stepping on a few of them. Turns out the heat had evaporated the water in the toilet bowl and let the denizens of the underworld into my life. I never felt "relieved" sitting on the toilet bowl after that. It took me a couple of days to eradicate them from the apartment.
Yeah but there must be some reason for them to colonize the living room of this dude. If there’s no food in the first place then they wouldn’t flood the place like he described
And two years later, here I am from the *current* latest Adventuring Party. Those fuckers just won't allow us to ever forget about bat shit mountain! 😂 (Although my personal unexpected horror moment was not in this video, but the doc, where a bat fell into the Guano, drowned/was pulled under by cockroaches immediately and seeing them gnaw on the little guys bones later. Truly horrifying. 😳
Dear BBC, it’s currently 3.52am here while I’m trying enjoy a bowl of yoghurt. No wonder it was bland. Now i know what is missing from my yoghurt. Thanks for the inspiration!

Some ancient hominids lived in caves during the winters as they never had enough time or safety to build much of homes. Now we've mastered technology so much we've become as domesticated as our small feline companions who fear elongated fruit and water...
@@dyspnoe586 I mean caves of bat & cockroaches are even easier to avoid than sharks/crocodiles. And I disagree, you can't avoid sharks/Crocs if you can't see them.
@@jacobhoover1654 what do you mean "can't see them" ok with crocodiles it might be a bit more tricky, but sharks ? How are you supposed to not see them ?
I literally just had that happen to me last night. I tried spraying this 2 in long cockroach in my shower, only for it to start FLYING towards me. I legit cowered in fear the moment I saw that. Thank god it didn’t touch me or I would’ve vomited Later come to learn that this species of cockroach will actually fly towards danger as a defense mechanism, hoping to make you run away. Would’ve been nice to know prior to spraying it…
These people are so much better than me cause I’d probably faint before even walking in, literally watching this is making me flinch at the slightest touch
Come on now don't resort to savagery. We as humans must see reason and as such should appreciate life in all forms. Instead we use that cave for our nuclear tests for scientific reasons ofcourse. Haha big bombs go boom!
@@AVastCollectionOfNothing Yeah people actually do that. When i was kid had a friend who had a colony of common house roaches in a plastic box. I never went to his home after that or saw him. He sent me a friend request on Facebook after 10 years. I saw his profile the guy loved roaches, never accepted him, it's kinda me problem i get really anxious around insects like most people do, but there are others who love them and finally you have Chinese who fry and eat them... I better see my self out.
Every now and then, a bat will (for one reason or another) lose its grip and fall into the mountain of guano beneath. It'll be trapped and then swarmed by roaches, and they'll devour the bat like piranhas leaving nothing but bones (albeit slowly).
Cockroaches are some of the most fascinating insects. They come in a large diversity of shapes, colors, sizes, and abilities. Some act as pollinators, others as detritivores eating leaf litter. Some mimic species of beetles, showing off a flashy display of iridescent color, and very few infest our homes. Sadly, those few home invaders give all roaches a bad name. Of the several thousand species of cockroaches that exist, only around five or six species infest our dwellings. I raise four species, most as feeders, others as pets. They're fun to watch, and very easy to maintain. I'd recommend that everyone gives roaches a chance.
Guano makes very good fertilizer, and it is just as precious as gold to some people. Everything that falls to the ground is devoured by the roaches in less than 24 hours. The real danger is falling and being knocked out.
It's kinda strange that before i watched this video i hadn't thought cockroaches would live in a cave in the wild, but now i ame interested in how they influence the ecosystem
@@irenecarrillo6750 There are MANY species of roaches that DON'T live IN PEOPLE'S HOMES. Most don't. Most are outdoor. The only two roach species that invade and bother people's space and homes are the American Cockroach (the big flying ones that people wrongly call "water bugs" even though they're not), and the German Cockroach (the smaller ones that don't fly). Most other roach species live in grass, and shrubs, and sand, and caves, away from houses.
Iam interested because 47 is a specific number. You could have said 50. Is 7 your favorite number? And please don't mind me if i came out of no where. Iam merely curious.
There's 100% lots of giant centipedes in there (I'm not talking about the ones with fragile exoskeletons, I mean the REALLY big ones), they LOVE this kind of habitat in South America and in South Eastern Asia. I don't mind most bugs, but if there's giant centipedes I'm 100% NOT going there. I'm not dealing with 30 centimeters long monsters, nope, no sir, thanks !
