    My greatest achievement is catching a fly out of anger without looking. It kept buzzing by my head and I couldn’t swat it nor could I focus on my hw with it coming and going every 2 seconds. I had angrily just whipped my arm out and grabbed where i heard it flying by and caught it without looking away from my work. Surprised myself, surprised the fly, fly got dead, I got an A. Life is good.

    I did something almost impossible too. Few years ago there was a blackout at night and my room was so dark that i cant even see my hand. I was bored and raised my hand and started doing scissors but all of a sudden something got caught between my 2 fingers so i held onto it until lights came back on. Then i realised that i have caught fly in mid air with just 2 of my fingers without seeing it.

    10:30 one of my dogs did this actually. He had one abusive owner and one that didn't abuse him but didn't really stop it either. He tried to break in one day when my other dog was in heat, after spending a few hours there we tracked down his owners. A few weeks later they moved out of town. A few weeks after that we opened out the door to the sounds of scratching. He's been living with us for around ten years now.

    Slight change of story I had a mate called Matty Williams and he had a dog called Spot and he lived with him at his mothers. Matt moved out to get his own place but couldn't take Spot with him. That dog would sit on the edge of the park every day waiting for him just staring across the park getting his hopes up if he saw someone then signing I felt sorry for Spot. I think he was a sheepdog mix. I've had German Shepherds they can be extremely klingy, even following you constantly round the house..

    I was living in Vermont and had to move back to New York City and couldn't take my one-year-old lab with me. A wonderful couple who had a cabin in the woods about 10 miles from my place volunteered to take him. I brought him there in my station wagon in a 20 below snow storm at night. Long story short, he broke away from their place and found his way back in pitch darkness through the snow. In the early morning, I opened the door and there he was wagging his tail, licking my face, and jumping up and down. I both laughed and cried at the same time, given that I would have to take him back once more. I was also completely amazed that he could navigate his way at night in a blizzard from a place he had never been to before.

    Insects, especially ants, also use pheromones to communicate or leave paths behind them as they walk. They can wander off looking for food or something and with the help of their internal compass as well as pheromones they can retrace their steps, communicate with pheromones that they've found food and then follow the path they took previously or another ant can follow that path if it's still there. It's actually very interesting to watch ants communicate.

    I think that the CFF (Critical Flicker Fusion) of a fly factors in a lot when trying to kill it. They basically live in bullet time perceiving everything else as slow motion with the way their brain processes input. Dog has a slightly higher CFF too which is why they kinda cheat at the game of frisbee.

    When I was a kid I remember seeing many flies get into the gap between the blinds and the window, id always find them really annoying due to the constant buzzing sound they made from smacking their wings against the glass trying to get out, one day I decided to walk over to one of these windows and inspect the fly that was inside the gap and with my morbid curiosity coming into play I wondered if I'd be quick enough to squash it against the surface of the blinds, so I waited for it to get comfortable and wipe its face with its legs repeatedly like they usually do and then SMACK, I ended up flattening the little guy and sticking him against the window, I told my mom about it and seeing as I was just a kid she cleaned the bug guts up and jokingly told me I did a good job and since I was now convinced my mom was proud of me for smearing fly guts on the window over the next few months I would be constantly at work splatting flies all over every window of my house, my mom would constantly be cleaning dozens of exploded flies off the windows. That's all.

    'essentially two navigation modules ' It isn't just two navigation modules, it's essentially two halves to the brain, and you can prove it easily. If a fly is landed somewhere, keep your body back from it, and approach it with your hands, one from each side. Move your hands slightly up and down (this is to keep them moving slightly in the fly's vision so they remain 'active') and slowly bring your hands closer and closer to the fly, evenly so they stay an equal distance from the fly. With an equal threat from both sides, the fly literally won't be able to take off. You can generally get both hands to within a few inches of the fly, then light and shadows will make one hand or the other more of a threat and it'll finally be able to take off. Once in a while when lighting is correct etc, you can actually close your hands slowly around the fly and it won't even take off. But usually they can take off when you get about 3 to 4 inches away with each hand. With a little practice you can catch a fly almost every time by hand by bringing your hands together quickly that last few inches, they leap up and you can catch it in the hollow between your hands from that last few inches. Neat to do once in a while, you can directly demonstrate how their brain is organized.

These topics are probably being fed in by comments and staff, there are probably a lot more people involved in making this channel than you might be thinking. Pretty sure he started with the Reddit stuff though, I had heard him there for 6 months or a year before he started being on other channels. This could also be his channel or something, but the overlap and timing etc suggested he started reading for larger channels.

    I had noticed as a child that when flys take off from the ground they need to fly forward. If even for a fraction of a second. This gives you a small advantage of catching or killing them with your hand. You can also approach slowly and flick them using your middle finger and thumb. Works for me anyway.

    And, I still don't know why I can't kill a fly... other than it being bad karma. Here is a funny story. When I was a kid I used to watch the Karate Kid movies. And in one of the movies there is this scene where the Karate-sensei Miyagi is teaching Daniel how to focus. And out of the blue "whoosh", he just catches a fly with his chopsticks. When I saw this I was just floored. And it formed a great impression on me. A few years later a Japanese student from overseas came to live with our family as part of an exchange program. He taught me about Japanese customs, the Japanese syllable alphabet and also how to eat with chopsticks. At this point having mastered how to eat with chopsticks after a few weeks of practice. I remembered the scene from the movies and as we were living in the countryside there were always flies around. And so in a smug moment of focused concentration I struck out at the next fly to come by me AND I CAUGHT IT IN MY FIRST TRY! I was totally astonished. Never caught one again in my life.

    I have always been VERY good at just being able to tell where/what direction i am, and i don't know when that skill has been acquired, but i think it has to do with smell and memory, and magnetics ofcourse. -i have always run around far into the woods alone as a child, and i learned the smell of water-sources, and various other types of areas by subtle hints off the wind. i never, EVER got lost, and i learned, even with our northern weird-sun, to use it to tell "oh, it should be 5:00 now, i should head home so my mom does not worry!", and i would always be on-the-dot RIGHT, even if the sun was inconsistent and my mom told me "but that is only for the lower half of the planet!", yet i was always on time, without a watch or anything, all year. I would equate it to do alot with memory, because i have a VERY good one, and every step and area, i always knew and never forgot, but perhaps it has to do with my feeling for the magnetic fields too, because i know where north is by heart, -don't know how, but i always do (along with the other 3 directions) and i would think it makes alot of sense why animals would know it too, it's just a mystery to me how i know these things, it's SO subtle, it is amazing i ever pick up on these things at all, and scares me, that some people lose their direction so easy.

    When I was a young man around 14-15 years old my dad and I were always out hunting. One say we went to a area in southern West Virginia to do a racoon hunt. It was about 25 miles from home so we took the truck with the dogs. We got separated from the dogs and come morning we went back home thinking we would go back the nest day to look for them. They were nowhere to be found. After 5 days the 3 dogs came home and was laying on the porch when we got up to milk the cows. HOW 25 miles in 5 days. Remember these dogs were transported to the hunting site via a truck. Animals have some amazing abilities to find there way back home...

    I've lost track of how many flies I've had to kill today. There seem to be an infinite amount. A black plastic spatula seems to be a particularly good Instrument as the flies don't seem to be able to see black objects coming. I've been hearing that flies didn't exist in the Americas until roughly 200 years ago. But They also say things to the contrary. It's hard for me to envision a landscape without any flies, so I don't know who to believe. They're here and they're not going away any time soon. Might as well get used to slapping and flailing at them. I can't have them crawling on my lips, but they're intent on doing that. I guess I just don't ever get to fully relax again. Thanks nature. You're a real pal.

    GPS, which is only one of our global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) has come a long way, and real-time kinematic (RTK) centimeter-level positioning is becoming more and accessible, as well as SBAS, which as far as I understand it, literally reads atmospheric pressure differences and sends that data to GNSS receivers to increase position accuracy. I just started learning about this stuff and it is so so cool. GNSS also works over most of the globe, and even without a base station (like a cell tower), we still have positioning down to a few meters. My point is, GNSS is a very useful tool, and I don't think flies will replace it, but I'm excited to see what we can do with flies, maybe in addition to GNSS.

    Don't let the beginning of this video discourage you: a lot can be accomplished without having a bunch of arbitrary perquisites designated by human society, which isn't perfect by any means. If you want to try discovering a way to use flies with a high school degree, go for it, who said you needed to wait for some losers at a school to tell you to experiment with shit? Humans are naturally curious and education can be a financial and time sink, so just do it. You want to try something? Invent something? Write something? Exercise? Go for it and do it in your own way, whatever you decide is best and if you decide you might need a little help, that's okay and sure, you might not get the results you want but that's what makes it a passion: it keeps you driven and going, as you make it a little further each time. Don't let others set your goals for you.

    He speaks about ants as primitive and humans as the peek of evolution. This is just straight up wrong. Though ants have been around for a long time this doesn’t mean they are primitive, it just means that they are so well sooted to their niche that they have not have to change. Meanwhile saying that humans are the pinnacle is naive. We are highly adaptive due to our intelligence and thats why we are the dominant species. But we aren’t really that evolved. Are heads are to big at birth for the mother, our backs are positioned in a way so that everyone will at some point have major issues whit it and our ankles have so many useless bones that we can break them by stepping on something the wrong way. Does that sound like “the pinnacle of evolution” to you? No. Furthermore evolution is an ever ongoing process in living things even when it seems that an organism is perfectly sooted to its niche. So there is no pinnacle because there is no end. (This is not meant as a hate post, just trying to inform)

    I killed a unsuspectingfly with a quick slap at the back of my finger, and killed it on my window.

    All I could think about while watching the second half of this was Ancient Aliens and how all the ancient cultures seem to have an unexplained fascination with the stars. I wonder if we too as humans have some kind of visual connection to the stars that we do not yet fully understand.

    I know how to kill a fly, the trick is not to clap where it is, but where it is going to be.

    I can catch flies easy I pinch them right out the air. but even with compound eye, visualizations, the creature needs to remember those images for navigation. that is a complex function. Alternatively some aspect of the field variation might be more or less desirable... which is less navigational, and more obstacle avoidance. Ants use smell for navigation.
