Here’s my main 2 thoughts
1) imagine how hyped a hawk would be to see a swarm of locusts
2) imagine if locusts were predatory and swarmed animals...

[CDLJz]

Imagine seeing 40 miles worth of insects flying in your direction. That would be fricken' terrifying

Narrator: "They will consume every edible thing, that lies in their path."
Camera guy literally being eaten alive: "Haha stupid plants"

I now understand why they were one of the 10 plagues

[lifetheuniverse]

I would really like to see the way things look after the swarm has passed by... records of how nature recovers, life is still here.

No wonder the ancient people thought a locust swarm was divine punishment or the work of the devil. I would also freak out if I see so many insects seemingly popping out of nowhere.

Now this is what my DIY flamethrower has been waiting for!

[useraccount]

They look like full size birds when they fly..

[roriksavant]

Fear not the dark my friend. And let the feast... Begin.

[carmeno]

I'd be hungry too if I was in the ground for 20yrs lol

[KonradofKrakow]

Huh, it is not a problem. We just need to send Bear Grylls there and he will have eaten them all by his third dinner.

[JamesBond-golr]

"Hans, get ze flammenwerfer!"

[TeKaMOTO]

Now imagine a giant electric fly swatter...

[jhansiraokodali]

Everyone : talking about locust
Me : how the hell did they record this

[andrewp.]

I think it would be fun to meet the swarm with some flamethrowers

[eleethtahgra]

Bear Gryll: Its protein, lots of protein.

[brandonwiles-nt]

They can actually cause famine. Happened many times in history.

This video reminds me of the time my Family members came over
