I watch a lot of nature programs, including insects, but this is one of the most amazing. the combination of technology, human persistence and strange creatures is extraordinary!
such fascinating insects and its such a shame the rainforest is being destroyed on a daily basis. so many species we will never discover becasue they are wiping away the rainforest.
I have seen them In my village forest, located in South India tamilnadu.we used to play with these insects when we were young.if you drop on the ground they would spin faster upside down.
@@p1zzapup good news! i saw a small one on a tree while i was hiking the appalachian trail! it got away but i got to see one again! it was green and almost rectangular. i almost missed it because it was on a green leaf! nice profile picture 🤣
That was pain staking work for you people and looks like you were rewarded for all your hard dedicated work and we are all better for it those tree hopper insects are beautiful and amazing my favorite insect/bug used to be the rihnosers beetle but it now looks like it could be the tree hopper insect. Thank you for your dedication and bringing to us these beautiful insects that most of us on this planet of ours would never ever get to see or know of if it wasn't for people like you I salute you all for it is a hard life that you live and certainly a rewarding one at that, thank you again.
Awesome documentary. Watching this when i first saw it a few months ago really helped me appreciate treehoppers. Gonna try to find some this year hopefully
They are cute, too. Besides all the other amazing qualities! That’s you for this edit: This is one of the best nature documentaries I have seen! Well done!
Well, there are experiments with flies. They use wax to attach sensors or such to the fly and set it free to analyze data. But in this case, it seems more like they attached the bug with wax in a static stick in front of the camera, when the took whatever the bug is holding to, they tend to "fly" (thinking there are nothing to hold, their instinct is... Fly). The background image most likely is added in video edition, like a green screen. So the bug is static but gives sensation of movement.
This is the Stuart McKamey of the expedition. That was definitely done in the post production editing (as was the Bodydium chasing me at the beginning of the conplete documentary if you've seen it (Discovery Channel edited that part out, but the full documentary aired in many European countries and elsewhere , even on Quantas Airways). @marioangel
Great video, is so fascinant to watch this wonderful and weird insects, about 2 months ago here were I live in the mexican pacific coast, I was eating and reading in a park and I saw this little ant --or at least what seemed an ant, it was about 1mm and black, but I was not convinced and make me suspicios that it was not an ant at all, luckily I always take a looking glass with me and it was an spider! was an spider mimicking an ant!...after watchin videos like this one, it was one of the few lucky encounters with this kind of weird insects "in person" not in a video.
Incredibly awesome video.!!! Wonderful job filming these tiny fantastic insects.!!! Thank you so much for making this superb video !!! And Praise GOD for creating all these spectacular insects !!! There is a mountain of proof that earth is only 7,000 years old as opposed to the ridiculous Billions & Billions, that sounds more like Biden explaining CASH he's giving to the Ukrainian Dictator. While you're in Ecuador you should swing by Peru.... Peru has 10's of 1,000's of hand carved stones, called Icha Stones, the stones are about 600 to 800 years old and they have 1,000's of various & different Dinosaur images carved on these stones, they're Amazing !!! There were hundreds of different Dinosaurs living in Peru 700 years ago and the natives captured their images on these stones. For those Doubting Thomas's, archeologists have excavated many grave sites including childrens sites. They discovered in many of the children's graves small blankets WITH Dinosaurs Embroidered around the edges. There is absolute proof that Dinosaurs were still living in Peru 700 years ago NOT millions & billions of years ago.... Thank you for your hard work and determination and Thank GOD for HIS Unbelievable Earth and Creatures..
Nobody has ever claimed that. dinosuars were living billions of years ago. There's proof in the carbon-dating in the bones, not innacurate, mistinerpreted drawings. Nothing makes sense in biology except in the light of evolution. I suggest you read up on it to clear up some misunderstandings displayed in your post.
This is the Stuart McKamey on the documentary. I edited their narration TWICE and they still got some facts wrong (for example, there are as many treehoppers in the Eastern Hemisphere as there are in the Western.

These are my favorite animal. There were a ton in the roses in my front yard a few years ago but i haven't seen them since :(

0:29 you know, I know we all know what I'm thinking
Does anyone know how the hell they managed to attach a camera to a flying bug?

Poor confidence you must have in your faith if you need such poor "proofs" and "arguments" to support it....
Evolution can’t create treehopper. God can!
whoever wrote the narration lines needs to be fired, bit cringe
great documentary and shots, tho
Not that bad!
