So I was making some water bottle MRE bombs in my backyard today. I didnt put enough heater in one of the bottles so it didn't go off....for like 10 min. So I'm talking on the phone and hear a pop and go to investigate.

praying mantises= masters of camouflage.

Ya those guys are aweosme. I had one in cage for a while when I was like 10 or so. Cought some of those little 4 winged butterflies and watched it eat. Was awesome!

i read in a book when i was 12 that some of them can get to be the size of a bananna, and after reading that i never wanted to come across one. when me and the family go to costa rica for like a month every year, you WILL come across large insects. grasshoppers 9 inches long.

It would suck being a male praying mantis.

Re-read your post out loud. Edit as you feel neccesary. 8)

Hahahahahahaha DAMNIT.

flat landers....this morning i founda black widow in my bedroom about 1 inch arcoss, what did i do? hicapaa the b itch. Praying mantis are really gentel, i pick them up and let them crawl on my hand, just dont poke their heads and they woke bite you.

I personally love praying mantises(manti?) and most other insects, this one just surprised me.

[quote="picoy"]:shock: Wow!

Care to elaborate for the round eyes here?

theres a video somewhere of one eating a smal bird, the mantis was about 7 inches and the bird was about inches it took it the better part of the day but he did it. The video is time lapsed.
