Gosh, the reflection off of the drop of water on that spider's body is magnificent

This channel is such a hidden gem. I don't mind the long wait because the production quality is so damn high every time you upload.

I hate spiders, but this was f*ckin sweet. Nature is incredible. The amount of adaptation and specialization is truly amazing.

My wife told me to take the spider out instead of killing it…

We went and had some drinks. Cool guy. Wants to be a web developer.

That is so overly complicated but I love it.

Also I'm guessing this spider was the inspiration for the Pokemon Araquanid.

I'm here after reading Jungle Juice. Such a great webtoon that incorporates species of bug I've never seen or heard of before!

Fantastic shots. Looks like something that should be on T.V.

The music is simply exceptional. Give that man an Oscar

This is amazing, I have never been so impressed by an arachnid my entire life, spiders make me nervous, but I am very intrigued at how marvelous their diversity is, they have hunters, burrowers, flyers, I didn't know they also have scuba divers as well

This is one of the most beautiful videos I've ever seen. Something about it is just so stunning and calming.

Thank you for giving this super cool spider actual dignity instead of treating this 2cm harmless fellow like a horror movie monster :) It's appreciated!

Diving Bells are so amazing how they even breath underwater is beautiful...

[aoifeohara]

Wow mother nature is so perfect. When one stops to think how inticate everything is on a deep level it mind blowing. Mother earth truly is a living thinking being.

I’ve never been more amazed about how this spider goes about his life .

[daniaazmir]

This is probably my favourite type of spider.

[spidergregory]

The most amazing about this is that, so far, its adaptations to aquatic life are almost entirely behavioral. It hasn't developed paddle-like legs, or a more streamlined body shape; just an ingenious use of silk and some air bubbles.

I really love how she flicks to get more air suply 2:05
