Love this guy, real respect and admiration for animals.

[audibleman]

Was wondering how big these were because I came over from Kurzgesagt youtube channel about ants

[TranscendentBell]

"I didn't get stung!"
*Behind the scenes*
"OH GOD IT HURTS."

[TheoHiggins]

The most impressive thing about this is that the ant dismounted at the perfect moment after Steve had finished saying what he needed to.

[Rampster]

Lol the look on his face when he realized that he never got stung.

[pHixiq]

Biggest balls goes to you for putting them on your hand

[Shun]

He reminds me of Steve Irwin in the way he looks and acts around dangerous creatures

[YouOnlyIiveTwice]

damn you got balls. That's like pulling the pin on a grenade with an unknown amount of fuse length.

[KeenoMajeeno]

I thought this was Steve Erwin at first.... the only reason i clicked on the vid

[jamesroylance]

This guy did the bullet ant ritual for the full 10 mins, "I got stung once". Don't be so modest ha

[zeroskillz]

The ant knew he wasn't going to harm it, so it didn't bite. Respect at its finest

[CeeDeeLight]

He reminds me of Steve Irwin....tears.

[jintziejth]

I'm glad you didn't get stung! Good example of going forward with what you need to do even knowing how bad it could get. Thank you!

[Cherrigrl]

"I didn't get stung!" lol that was cute. he was so proud lol

[Mentorcase]

Those stings hurt like electric shock combined with a red hot soldering iron, I had 1 crawl up my pants and have a party on my leg, got in 5 stings before I could get my pants off, another time I put my hand on 1 whilst climbing a gum tree, instant jump out of tree reaction.

[crimsonstang]

Wait, this isn't Steve Erwin? He looks really similar.

[somanynamesilltrythis]

I didn't get stung! Camera guy: Oh crap! I forgot to push record, we gotta do it again...

[bnkrmike]

That's the largest ant in the world? we got black ants here in the Philippines twice that size

[PretentiousPainters]

Why do I have an urge to experience how bad this sting is now?

[jaimejeronimo]

" I didn't get stung"....squash lol
