Australia is known for having some of the craziest and most dangerous creatures on Earth… so I decided to test it myself.
In this video, I flip 100 different objects across Australia — from dense rainforests to extreme desert environments — to uncover what’s hiding underneath.
From venomous insects and trapjaw ants to giant centipedes and bizarre camouflage creatures, every object reveals something new and sometimes dangerous.
Some of these animals have powerful دفاع systems, insane speed, or camouflage so good you might miss them completely.
But things quickly get intense when we start finding truly unexpected and creepy creatures…
Watch till the end because the craziest discoveries might surprise you 😳

00:00Australia is known for the craziest and deadliest animals.
00:03That's why I'm going there to flip 100 objects to find crazy bugs,
00:08venomous creatures, and so much more underneath.
00:11I'll be starting in Australia's most iconic rainforest,
00:14but by the end, we're going to get to the iconic Australian desert with insane animals everywhere.
00:19But don't think the rainforest is boring,
00:20because literally under this first object, I instantly found something deadly.
00:25This is a baby giant centipede,
00:27which, when they get older, are known for having some of the most painful bites in the animal kingdom.
00:31Since we're in Australia, we're very likely to see a way bigger one soon.
00:35Under the second object, I found something I've always wanted to find.
00:39Oh my gosh, I thought there was nothing here, but there's a literal massive bug.
00:44But that's exactly part of this bug's design.
00:46This is a spiny leaf insect, one of the most camouflaged insects in existence.
00:50You could barely even see it when I was standing on this leaf.
00:53Pretty cool.
00:54So I kept exploring, and when I got to object number three,
00:57I found nothing.
00:58So I'm only going to show the most interesting animals from now on.
01:01Which, thankfully, object number six had something super interesting.
01:04At first, you may just think these are regular old ants,
01:07but if you look closely, it's actually an insane species.
01:10They are trap jaw ants, which you can tell by their massively wide trap jaw mandibles.
01:15They have these microscopic hairs inside the jaws that when a prey touches it,
01:20the jaws snap within a fraction of a second, making it almost impossible for prey to escape.
01:25Yeah, Australia is crazy.
01:26Now, as I continued on the trail, I was going to flip this log,
01:30but on top, I noticed there was actually a special species of millipede,
01:33which apparently has the ability to spit acid out of its mouth.
01:37Now, if you didn't know, with me, I have the backpack,
01:40where I pack tons of cool objects to interact with the animals I find.
01:43And this time, I grabbed a pack of paintbrushes.
01:45I wanted to see how this bug would react to being rubbed by one,
01:48and yeah, he was pretty mad.
01:50Initially, he kept curling up and biting the end of the brush,
01:53but eventually, I caught it doing this.
01:56Yup, it just sprayed its acid defense chemical,
01:58which stained the edge of my paintbrush,
02:00and yeah, it just kept biting it over and over.
02:03Well, sorry for disturbing you, little guy.
02:04That was pretty cool to watch, though.
02:06Now, as I continued on to object number 11, I found this.
02:09It's not a rock.
02:10It's actually a termite nest.
02:12Yeah, termites will spend years, day by day, constructing a nest out of dirt.
02:17Sometimes, they even get absolutely massive like this one.
02:20Although, this one looked like it may have been abandoned,
02:22and they were something infiltrating it.
02:24Yo, there's like a weird tail thing coming out of this nest.
02:27Yeah, it was literally partly inside the termite nest and poking its head out.
02:31I thought I had found some undocumented snake species, or maybe a leech?
02:35But if you actually really focus hard on how this thing is moving,
02:38and in specific, this tiny little white thing on the edge of its head,
02:42you can tell that this is a baby land planarian.
02:45If you don't know what these are, well, they are insanely creepy.
02:48In this footage, you can see how they eat.
02:50Basically, they go up to an unsuspecting snail or worm.
02:53Then, all of a sudden, they completely wrap around it,
02:56releasing a sticky mucus to make it impossible for the prey to escape.
03:00Then, they push some weird alien tube out their body that they can inject into the prey
03:04to then slurp up the insides like a smoothie.
03:07Uh, yeah.
03:08Talk about brutal.
03:09I think I'm gonna have to leave you alone.
03:10Now, under object number 16, I found a cricket.
03:13Which I just thought was cool, because in America,
03:15the crickets are a bright pan color, usually, but this one was way darker.
03:19Now, I quickly took out the backpack and grabbed a clear container out from inside.
03:23Yeah, if you didn't know, these crickets make an excellent food source for other animals I'll find,
03:27so I'll be saving this to feed it to something later.
03:30As I continued walking through this beautiful rainforest,
03:32I came across a little creek.
03:34This looks like the perfect water area for deadly crocodiles to be swimming in.
03:38Oh, maybe I shouldn't be standing so close, actually.
03:40Yeah, I don't know why everything in Australia is so deadly,
03:43but I went and flipped some rocks along the river,
03:45where I, of course, found a little earthworm.
03:48Nice.
03:48Under another river rock, I found a pretty solid-sized beetle grub.
03:52You can see it was quite a bit bigger than my gloved fingertip,
03:54but some of these beetle grubs will seriously grow so large over the course of a few years
03:58that they may turn into beetles that are just genuinely insane.
04:02All right, let me put your rock back, mister.
04:04Hopefully, you turn into an amazing, massive beetle one day.
04:07But as I left the river a little bit, I found easily the weirdest thing yet.
04:12Wait a second.
04:13I don't know if you guys can see you, but there's something moving under this log.
04:17Yeah, it was a bunch of extremely weird white things moving around constantly.
04:21I had to get out the backpack to grab a flashlight so I can get a better look at what
04:26was going on.
04:26This gave me a bit of a better view to see that inside of here was tons and tons of
04:31super thin legs.
04:33But they were just shaking so much that I had no clue what these things were
04:37until I poked a stick inside, which gave me a slightly better look at one of them.
04:42Yeah, if we pause at the perfect moment, it may look like some sort of spider,
04:45but in reality, this is a phantom crane fly.
04:48Apparently, footage of these guys is insanely hard to get
04:51because, well, they shake like crazy when they detect a predator.
04:54But in this rare footage I found, you can see how they fly like an alien spaceship.
04:59I'm not even gonna lie.
04:59This might be the coolest fly species on Earth.
05:02What?
05:03For object 29, I flipped some of these dead sea things and found another super cool ant species.
05:08You can see by these guys' awesome gold and green color that they are Australian weaver ants.
05:13And what's so interesting is you see how this guy has its green abdomen pointing up?
05:17Well, that's actually their special ability.
05:20While most ants have mandibles or stingers to take down their prey,
05:23weaver ants literally have an acid spray in their abdomens
05:27that they use to either defend themselves like these ants or spray other attacking ants.
05:32Now, they also build bridges out of their bodies to help the rest of the colony walk across leaves.
05:36Talk about a crazy ant species.
05:38Now, the next animal I found was actually under a tree.
05:41If you look closely, there is actually some sort of bug that looked like it was just floating right under
05:46here.
05:46I had to put this stick behind it so my camera would focus on it.
05:49And after it did, I saw that this is actually a super cool animal called an inchworm.
05:54These guys are basically able to float under trees by spinning a tiny thread of silk
05:58that connects them to the leaves above so they can just hang from it.
06:01But this guy actually climbed onto the stick I was holding.
06:04And when I went to put him back, you could see how they have some of the funniest movement.
06:08Since their legs are only on the front and back of their body,
06:10they just walk around by curling their entire body up like this.
06:14Seems like a lot of effort.
06:15But yeah, I just put this guy right back.
06:17Now, object 41 was this coconut, which I found out something super cool about.
06:21Interestingly, I first noticed that there was actually one of those trap jaw ants from earlier biting onto my finger.
06:26Yeah, I wasn't joking about how strong these things' jaws are,
06:29and he was glued onto my hand just trying to inject his venomous stinger in.
06:33Good thing I had these gloves on.
06:35Anyways, what is so interesting about this coconut is almost this perfect circle drilled into the side of it.
06:41This is not natural.
06:42It's actually a sign of a giant white-tailed rat.
06:45You see, these things live in the Australian rainforest and find fallen coconuts.
06:49They then use their insanely large teeth to drill a massive hole into coconuts,
06:53which most animals can't do.
06:55Then, they drink up all the coconut water and eat some of that tasty white meat on the inside.
07:00But after the rat leaves, other bugs also come in here,
07:02like these sap beetles, to eat the bacteria that grows inside.
07:06Dang, a lot of life in one single coconut.
07:08And so, I kept on exploring, and when I flipped object 44,
07:12I found some of the weirdest springtails I've ever seen.
07:15If you didn't know, springtails are tiny little bugs that are usually white,
07:18but these ones in Australia, I found, are bright red.
07:22That may not seem super interesting, but if you didn't know, there's a massive market online
07:26of people buying and selling super rare springtail species.
07:30And apparently, 10 Australian red springtails sells for over $30.
07:35So yeah, if I was smart, I'd grab these and sell them,
07:37but I don't want to interfere with the wildlife, so I'll let them be.
07:40Now, this trail is awesome because not only does it end up in the iconic Australian red desert,
07:44but it also passed by a literal beach.
07:47Yeah, the rainforest was connected to the water here, so I figured I should flip a couple seaside
07:51rocks.
07:52Under some of them were these aquatic snails with these pretty cool-looking shells,
07:56and out of other rocks, crabs would dart out looking for cover.
07:59I wanted to get a close-up of that crab that ran out, so I flipped the rock right next
08:03to it
08:03and found an even bigger crab.
08:05Oh, look at him, bro.
08:06He's just staring at me with his claws up.
08:09Yeah, you can see, compared to the size of my finger, he could definitely give me a pretty good
08:13pinch, but thankfully, he went and retreated down into his perfectly placed hole.
08:17Now, there is also some tiny fish here that I tried to capture this net from the backpack,
08:20but they were just so unbelievably fast, if you can even see them moving around in this footage.
08:25This ocean is crazy, though, because the Great Barrier Reef is literally less than 10 miles
08:30from where I was standing.
08:31That place is home to some of the craziest and deadliest ocean life in the world,
08:35so I think I'll definitely come back here to make an underwater video one day.
08:39Make sure you're subscribed, so when I come back here, you'll get notified about the insane
08:43video I make.
08:44Anyways, I'll keep exploring.
08:45Now, back in the rainforest, I ended up finding a little log and flipped it.
08:48Underneath was just some super tiny, kind of boring ants, which normally I wouldn't show,
08:52but as I was watching back this footage, I noticed this leaf had something super cool
08:57on it.
08:57See all those weird bumps perfectly laid out across the leaf?
09:00Well, those are eggs.
09:02Apparently, there's a bug called a large leaf-footed bug that lays their eggs on the bottom of leaves
09:07and apparently are able to lay them in this perfect brick formation, which I just find
09:11interesting how symmetrical it is.
09:13As I continued down the rainforest trail, I found something pretty crazy.
09:17Yo, these have got to be the biggest fruits I've seen in my life.
09:20And in fact, this is actually the largest fruit in the world, called a jackfruit.
09:25But what was cool was that it was split open by some animal and was completely rotting.
09:30Tons of wildlife was eating it up, like these flies, and it even had some little worm larvae
09:35that were just eating their fair share of it, too.
09:37Must be pretty tasty.
09:38Just kidding.
09:38That looks absolutely nasty.
09:40Now, the next thing I found was under another tree, but my camera wasn't really focusing
09:44on it, so I held the backpack up behind it to show you guys what it is.
09:48It may look like some sort of moth butterfly thing caught on a spider web, but in fact,
09:52this yellow triangle thing is the spider itself.
09:55It's a type of northern jewel spider.
09:58And yeah, they're born with these crazy, rock-solid, sharp patterns on their back.
10:02This makes it so spiders' biggest predators, birds, have a way harder time eating them.
10:07The last animal I found in the rainforest section was under this log.
10:11It was another crab, but this time it was a land crab, which is a little bit different
10:14than the beach crab we found earlier.
10:16These guys actually quite enjoy eating crickets, and if you remember in the backpack, I actually
10:20caught a cricket in this container earlier in the video, which might kind of not be alive
10:25anymore, but it'll still make for some great food.
10:28So I brought it over to the crab and waved it around in front of him.
10:30He kind of pretended to grab it, but then all of a sudden, he darted away so fast into
10:35a little puddle.
10:36He was probably a little bit scared of me.
10:38Well, I'll leave that with you, little buddy, if you want to eat it.
10:40Well, I finally made it to the Australia Desert, which has some of the most deadliest animals
10:45on Earth.
10:46And that was instantly proven because under this first rock was another baby centipede.
10:51But this guy was still pretty small.
10:53However, I'm super confident we're going to find a way bigger one.
10:56Now, under this little piece of bark, there wasn't actually anything, but I did see something
10:59running around in the corner of my eye, so I went to try and catch it.
11:02When I did, I realized it was a burrowing frog, which apparently didn't want to be with me
11:06because it just jumped straight off my hand.
11:08But a frog means there's likely water nearby.
11:11And after walking around a little bit, I found this little pool.
11:13Oh my gosh, there's so much stuff in here.
11:15I wanted to get a closer look at some of the stuff in here.
11:18So I once again took out the backpack and once again grabbed out that clear container.
11:22This let me scoop up some of the wildlife in there, which allowed me to catch the first
11:25aquatic animal, a tadpole.
11:27This is likely the same species of frog that I had just found.
11:30So it's pretty cool we found this.
11:31Anyways, the second animal I was able to scoop out of here was quite a bit different.
11:35This super weird, almost alien looking creature is actually a dragonfly larva.
11:40Yeah, we've all seen dragonflies.
11:41They're pretty insane, cool looking bugs.
11:44Yeah, apparently they start just as weird as babies living under the water.
11:48Now, finally, I was seeing one last creature in this pool of water, so I scooped it up.
11:52Yeah, these things are almost microscopic in size, but this is either some sort of water
11:57beetle or a type of shrimp.
11:59I can't really tell which one because of how blurry my footage was.
12:02But these guys are probably one of the main food sources of that dragonfly larva we had
12:06just seen.
12:06Now, as I continued on the trail, I ended up flipping Rock 72, where something actually
12:11pretty cool did appear.
12:12If you look closely, this is a completely bright white spider.
12:16I've never seen a completely solid white spider, but apparently these are this color because
12:20it helps reflect the sunlight as it just gets so hot in these Australian deserts.
12:25This next rock also had something pretty cool.
12:27It was giant wood cockroaches.
12:29What was even cooler was that right next to these guys was this bug running around.
12:33This is a top whittler bug, and apparently it's in the same family of bugs that laid those
12:38crazy eggs earlier in the video.
12:40I'm happy we got to find one of these.
12:41But finally, after quite a lot of rock flips later of nothing, I finally found something
12:46I was looking for, and it kind of scared me when I first flipped the rock.
12:49But finally, I found a fully grown giant centipede.
12:53These things are crazy fast, so I kept getting spooked whenever I looked in my direction.
12:57But yeah, apparently, despite having some of the most painful bites, it doesn't even
13:01have teeth.
13:02It actually injects its venom through two of its front legs that have been modified to
13:06attack prey.
13:07And while other invertebrates just go for small insects like scorpions, centipedes are known
13:12to take down literal lizards for lunch.
13:15Pretty crazy.
13:16Thankfully, the next rock that had something under it also didn't disappoint.
13:19It's out from underneath, three and a little type of velvet gecko.
13:22I didn't get to see it for long, but geckos are always pretty cool to find, just because
13:25of how interesting of an animal they are.
13:27They're also some of the most common pet reptiles kept by people.
13:30Now, these next rock flips all rapid fire because I wasn't finding anything super insane,
13:34but I did find some termites finally.
13:36Also, I found this kind of cool grasshopper, which just jumped into the grass, and I found a
13:40super cute caterpillar with a pretty unique pattern.
13:43If you're wondering, this caterpillar species turns into this pretty cool moth.
13:47But now, I only had one more rock flip till I got to 100, and I really wanted to find
13:52a
13:52snake here.
13:52So, I really locked in to find the best rock I could that could have a snake under it.
13:57I needed to find a rock like this that had a little gap under it where a snake could be.
14:01Thankfully, it didn't take too long till I ended up finding this.
14:04Oh, yo, is that a lizard tail?
14:06Or is that a snake?
14:07But as I moved my camera to get a better angle, I was almost certain I had found the body
14:12of
14:12a snake here.
14:12So, I very carefully moved the rock to get a little bit of a better look at what was
14:16under here.
14:17Thankfully, this didn't look like one of Australia's deadly snakes.
14:20In fact, based off the pattern, it looked like a Stimson's python, which take down their
14:25prey by constricting it, not with venom.
14:27I swear, every single rock flipping video, I find something cool on the last rock.
14:30But dang, I mean, I don't really want to stress you out, bro, so I guess I'll just leave
14:33you under your rock.
14:34Well, there was 100 rock flips in Australia for you.
14:36Honestly, I found so many cool and unique bugs that make this trip worth it, but I know
14:40Australia has so much more to offer in regards to crazy animals, so I'm definitely coming
14:45back out here one day to make a part two.
14:47Subscribe so you can see that.
14:48Yo, I just saw another snake!
14:50It's the Theragreen Snake Fleshy.
14:51Yep, I talk about the merch every video, but seriously, it just helps support the channel,
14:54so if you want to check out the merch, guys, it's on theragreenstore.com.
