Did you know that ants preform surgeries on each other they can identify wounds on other ants and treat them by either cleaning the wound or amputating it if it’s really bad. When amputating the limb they bite down on it multiple times until it comes off. The surgeries are very helpful they make the ant more likely to survive as they reduce the risk of infection. This is a pretty recent discovery too. I love ants so much they are so complex and cute they care deeply for one another and have unique social structures. Some ants have agriculture they’ll feed a fungus their scraps and then eat it but not so much that it’ll stop growing. Ants are so cool
I think it's funny how jerma says hed survive in the wilderness by eating bugs when hes shown to absolutely hate bugs and doesnt even want to touch a dead one encased in resin as jewelry
Ear wigs are called earwigs cus their wings resemble the shape of ears the myth about them crawling into ears comes from their name. Look up photos of earwig wings they are beautiful. The way they fold up is extremely intricate and complex also look at earwig nymphs they are adorable. Jerma is right earwigs are cute and fun
@fennec70 #1 is the Vietnamese centipedes bc they're good mothers and they'll just sit in a ball with their kids inside without eating or anything just so their kids will survive #2 is the dobsonfly bc their jaws are awesome and also hellgramites(the larva) are cool #3 is the rosy maple moth for obvious reasons #4 is the polyphemus moth bc they're huge and also a reference to Homer's Odyssey #5 is the Madagascar hissing cockroach bc I think it's cool that they can hiss
@mythcat1273 Solid list. Dobsonflies are my personal favorite, I think that hellgramites being aquatic is pretty cool. I'm lucky enough to live in a place with both dobsonflies and polyphemus moths.

im only like 3 minutes in but i am desperately hoping this compilation includes "theres a spoidah on my shouldah!" so many jerma bug moments but so little jerma spider moments 😞
37:32 I've been saying for so long that people who "hate bugs" are simply people who don't know jack shit about them.(this excludes ppl with actual phobias. Sometimes we can't control what we're afraid of and that's okay) They're all such intricate little creatures, each having their own little contributions to keeping quite literally the entire world alive(it's not even an exaggeration, we'd be dead so fast without bugs). I took a very similar path to jerma, afraid and grossed out by bugs at first, but then started actually LEARNING about them, and it is basically impossible to not appreciate the lil guys after having some knowledge about them. So any time someone says they hate bugs, I know right away that they just don't know shit about them. Like, dung beetles straight up use THE STARS to navigate while they roll their lil poop ball around! Isn't that so fuckin neat!? And they use their lil poop balls to lay their eggs in, since animal shit just happens to have the perfect conditions and nutrients for their young, and they can also burrow in them to keep cool! AND, doing all this means that they help break down and disperse animal shit across the land, and what is animal shit often used for? Fertilizer to make nutritious soil for making healthy plants! They're just lil guys!!!!
his opinions on flies are so true - with most house insects (centipedes, earwigs, small spiders) I feel like we are living entirely separate lives. They don't perceive me and I leave 'em alone. house flies are deliberately out to make my life miserable. they follow you around, they land on your food. i feel like they are aware of my presence and they hold malice in their minds.
Jerma's adoration of earwigs showcases he has never dealt with hundreds of them crawling out of sinks and especially straws. They're good little bugs, but man, hiding in straws?! Get out of here! Actually, maybe the loathsome bug eater would like that...
unfortunately no :(( I have a section in this comp abt it like halfway-ish through, he brought up his interest in the beetles in 2022 and we haven’t heard anything since ;-;
slugs in A is crazy, they're F all the way not snails though, those are A tier also silverfish (the ones he said appear under boxes in your garage) are cool because minecraft ergo A
don't forget he ATE bugs with a WICKED hot doctor
😭😭🙏🙏
I had no idea he talked about eating bugs so much.
His doctor bf got him into it
he probably hasnt realised yet either
specific hyperfixation core. similar to cannibalism.
I love his change in mindset overtime. He said stuff like "all bugs go to hell" to noticing how they're just little friends that like to hang out
He is so easily spooked like a horse

thats so amazing how we're still learning stuff like that!! ants are so cool
i love bugs frankly despite my undying fear of them, that is so cool
i love bug gggie s :3
Thank you for these ant facts

"E-A-T-I-N-G bugs"
1:24
I can't wait for Jerma to stream one day and grin at the camera and have bugs crawl through his teeth like the Grinch.
I remember googling “how many ants are there” as a kid
How many are there?
@@etainfgamongus9974yeah, we're waiting
@@etainfgamongus9974 like atleast 5
@@etainfgamongus9974 at least 12 I would think
The number is probably like triple since then also Brian Swords of York pfp
guy who hates and loves bugs equally
4:29 jerma calling the bug an alien in his startled frenzy is killing me
27:22 for anyone who doesn't understand (including Jerma), Butterfly on Your Right Shoulder is an iconic vocaloid song by noripy
The chat member saying they're friend ate a huge ass bee is so funny I can't believe it hasn't appeared in a john crops completion

its insane that you know all that! i wish i knew that much about anything, really :] also your pfp is cute !
@@cearl11 you can learning is fun!!! And thank you my friend drew it for me :3
thank you i just looked them up they are very beautiful
THEY HAVE WINGS????
Unbelievable journey from Bug Fearer to Bug Defender.
Omg this is an amazing video for me just a compilation of all the times he mentions my special interest
what are your top 5 bugs?
@fennec70
#1 is the Vietnamese centipedes bc they're good mothers and they'll just sit in a ball with their kids inside without eating or anything just so their kids will survive
#2 is the dobsonfly bc their jaws are awesome and also hellgramites(the larva) are cool
#3 is the rosy maple moth for obvious reasons
#4 is the polyphemus moth bc they're huge and also a reference to Homer's Odyssey
#5 is the Madagascar hissing cockroach bc I think it's cool that they can hiss

Mad man talks about his interest in eating bugs while simultaneously freaking out at the sight of bugs
i love seeing my two special interests interact
"I hate hornets!" *runs in and out of room 12 times to avoid 2 confused hornets*
"Aww, this one fell asleep in the shade!"
Duality.
this is the famed "bug-cut" everyone at the auction is talking about
I relate to jerma with alot of things. But i honestly relate so much with the whole being scared of bugs while also at the same time loving them.
Delightful thumbnail as always💖
he's so funny i swear he reacts to things like i do I run screaming from wasps and am afraid of balloons- what kinda critter-
Horse
@@Sharkstixx yes
truly love his joy about gardening
okay but earwigs literally do bite and I've been bitten by them personally at least 3 times that I can count
when i was 8 i got bitten by one and i thought i would turn into the earwig version of spiderman
I really like the comments you put during the video, it really makes the video stand out from the other compilations
i think the brain-eating earwig jerma segment was the first clip i ever saw of jerma. incredible
im only like 3 minutes in but i am desperately hoping this compilation includes "theres a spoidah on my shouldah!" so many jerma bug moments but so little jerma spider moments 😞
There's bugs in my hair there's spiders in my hair
can confirm i am an ant and my entire colony loves jerma
I have never related to anything more when jerma said bugs are just math problems. For some reason it just makes sense to me
i think this makes me want to live more ?

i like how he is susceptible to prey animals methods of waving off predators
gonna have to get some bug snacks before i watch this
54:09 I wasn’t watching the screen when he said this and I thought he was about to start crying 😭😭
Omg some species of earthworm can be the size of a pipe though this may be another childhood hallucination though
'appreciate the video chapters
Bug-type streamers are weak to fire, flying and rock-type moves
good to know for the coming streamer gym battles ahead, thank you fellow trainer ✍️✍️✍️
jerma is a bug type streamer that’s weak to bug types
My jerma clip complatipns are running out(ive seen them all) so THANK U!!!
The amount of times he refers to scorpions as bugs kills me☠️☠️
51:58 there is a whole movie about why this is a completely reasonable reavtion
Which movie?
@ The Fly
1:55 he is SO jealous
22:42 this made me oddly emotional
i'm so proud to have been in the live chat. i live for your art and videos abster 🙏💚
the MOMENT i get money i am buying a jerma keychain of some sort from you 😭 they make me so happy
anyways yeah. these videos are my favorite internet niche
his passion about bugs makes me passionate about bugs

possums love ticks because they're a wonderful food source for us i mean them
ohhh snap new abster vid dropping !!!!!
Bugs are awesome
I hope he does get blue death feigning beetles one day ❤️
that image of a "moth" he has is just a buckeye butterfly. like that isn't even a moth
Ape threatend by wasp, forgets he has feet that can crush
Hes the prettiest man in the world I can't explain this to you

CARAPACE. CARAPACE.
BUG DOWN!! me when i accidentally step on jerma in the morning after it's rained and he's on the footpath in front of my door
Jerma's adoration of earwigs showcases he has never dealt with hundreds of them crawling out of sinks and especially straws. They're good little bugs, but man, hiding in straws?! Get out of here!
Actually, maybe the loathsome bug eater would like that...
Someone finally made the bug comp
LOCAL STREAMER RESPONSIBLE FOR EARWIG INFESTATION
BUGS WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i knew he talked about eating bugs a lot but wow
sick thumbnail art btw
I wish I was a bug in jerma's lifr
An HOUR????
Wait bug! There's a bug
He looks like a bug guy
bug video made by a bug.. hi fellow bug :D
first post of 2025!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️
Did he ever end up getting the blue death feigning beetles he mentioned like, once?
unfortunately no :(( I have a section in this comp abt it like halfway-ish through, he brought up his interest in the beetles in 2022 and we haven’t heard anything since ;-;

slugs in A is crazy, they're F all the way
not snails though, those are A tier
also silverfish (the ones he said appear under boxes in your garage) are cool because minecraft ergo A
you are so wrong there are no words that could possibly come close to describing just how wrong you are. Slugs are at least C tier
