      I have such a short attention span. I saw one of his videos and I watched it. It was a good 25 minutes long. I watched the entire length of the video and I felt like I was there beside him as he told his story about one of his ant colonies. I wish I had a quarter of his public speaking, story-telling abilities. :) I fell in love with this channel and I appreciate his dedication. As a video maker myself (as a job), it takes a considerable amount of time to create a video, let alone a video that captured my attention for 25 minutes. :)

    Am I weird, why do I find ants exploring a new area calming/relaxing.

    How about "Order of the four"
    Since they have 4 pretty unique queens imo
    1) being the smartest and trying to hide in shadows
    2) being the most caring and excited, who took her time looking around and checking in with every worker she passed by
    3) being the toughest one, without 1 antenna, basically a scarred eye by human standarts
    4) being the care-free one and welcoming any, even mites

    Things I imagine the majors saying in an Arnold Schwarzenegger voice:
    (to the workers moving brood out) "Put the brood down, *_now!"_*
    (when the major backs out of walking on the moss) "I'll be back."
    (to the test tube after they decide to move out) "Hasta la *_Avista,_* baby."
    (when traveling to the new nest) "Get to the tunnel!" and "Come with me if you want to live."

    I think calling them "The Fae", as in the other word for fairies, might be fitting for such a cute small colony. Their genus Pheidole already sounds the same to Fae too. Also while looking up information on the origins of the word Fae I came across this little tidbit: "In Old French romance, a faie or fee was a woman skilled in magic, and who knew the power and virtue of words, of stones, and of herbs," which reminded me of the way these little ladies traverse their land coexisting symbiotically with their new home and its other inhabitants.

    I've never had a big interest in ants and found the channel yesterday by clicking on a fish video sent to me by a friend. After clicking through other recommendations I've got to the video "fire ants vs simulated river jungle" ... It got me so interested in ants that I started to watch the following videos until I decided to skip back to find out about the history of all those ants.
    After many hours and a youtube history with 12 pages of ants videos, I finally came to the end and watched the most recent video...
    Just to hear you mentioning, that you made a complete playlist ... I had to click manually through the videos, because youtube recommended videos out of order and skipped many.
    I doubt that you find my comment out of the 14.000 already posted, but if you see it by chance, I want to let you know that your love and enthusiasm really jumped over.
    The hive intelligence already impressed me before, but never enough to actually catch an interest. With your videos I realized how much I underestimated ants and also other insects like springtails. My view is completly shifted after this marathon. I can't stop thinking about going out and find my own queen to let her build a kingdom in my house. After some google search, it seems like the season for mating was just 2 month ago for the common ants in my region. But I guess thats for the better, since I lack the money to build something that I feel is good enough for this majestic creatures.
    PS: The titans were my favorite.. so I hope that they will come back. But after all this I doubt that they will come back

      Try holding a common black crazy ant, they don't bite but they tickle as they move in your hand. A bunch of these are a lot of fun when they suddenly decide your leg is a good branch to climb on, when you feel brave enough try one on your hand and observe it, you can hold your hand to a leaf to let it go. I have a small colony that moves around (they're wild) and sometimes i give them a little something just to watch them cluster around it.

  • @leovillads1677
    @leovillads1677 6 років тому +31

    Here's my guess for what ant colony has returned from the dead:
    It can't be the Black Dragons, since they were presumed alive.
    The Jawbreakers were such a small colony and were invaded by a giant black crazy ant colony, so they probably didn't make it.
    I think it's the Titans that have returned, although in the video where they were dead he found the Titan Queen's head and gaster. But maybe, just maybe, it was just a supermajor he found.

    You know what would be cool - a real floating island, which uses magnets to levitate (if you are confused how that works - two same charges repel each other) and perhaps it's possible to make it high enough so the ants won't be able to reach out.

    @alecfa3770 6 років тому +25

    I think you should call this colony 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐎𝐥𝐲𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐬. This makes sense because of the floating oasis-like home they've moved into, which is similar to Olympus that is pictured either floating in the sky or at the top of mountains above a sea of clouds. Since there are multiple levels of power it can kinda be related to the different level of gods and goddesses within the palaces there. The Four queens could be representative of the a few of the female Goddesses of Olympus such as Aphrodite, Demeter, Hera, and maybe either Athena or Artemis even though they were known as virgin goddesses of war and strategies.
    Anyways, i hope you all will like this so Mikey will see this! GO OLYMPIANS!!!
