You became what you strived to destroy
@@ayushupadhyay801 You became what you strived to evade.
You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself became the villain
You could say Frog is a termite-ator
@@kxmode hasta la vista
For us: a cute, tiny, round frog
For the termites: the assasin of empires, death incarnated, the anihilator of hope.
The termites behave as if the frog is not there. Insects, including predatory insects, are not the same as amphibians or other animals.
@@wip1664 Its called a joke yknow?
@@handsomebanana181 I am not joking
@@wip1664 I'm trying to say that Afasico was joking
The termites: “Death comes for us! Safeguard the Queen!”
You know your life has gone down hill when you can relate to a frog more than any human alive
We have a different definition of down hill
That sounds great
Up or down is really just a matter of perspective and this hill is most certainly on a steep incline towards greatness if you ask me 📈
They're the one who release from cage and took video of it you think they would wait for days
How many termites do you eat in a sitting?
You can see the bugs still moving around inside of him when he does his big puff of satisfaction at the end, what a chaotic gentleman.
I thought that was just my creepy imagination! I'm glad someone else saw it too.
I was just barely able to notice something.

*Desert frog: doesn't move*
Scorpion: *must've been the wind.*

Nothing here after all
He has gained the skill to stay so incredibly still I become invisible.
That squishy looking ping pong ball with eyes is clearly just some type of rock formation.
never should of came here!

You know, when you steal one of the top comments, you don't take it's place, and we can all see that you stole it...
Stolen ahh comment 😂
The fact that BBC shrunk their camera crew down to get these shots is amazing.
What a distinguished gentleman, look at the way he is waddling
Ahhh yess, very distinguished
His wobble intemidates even the most distinguished individuals
Absolute Unit.
indeed
Very regal in his gait. Not a great night for the termite colony though where there were few there were likely many.
I would never expect to see a toad in the desert like this.
A cute, chubby thing.
funny thing is when it rains, all the bushveld frogs come out and they kinda just float together and mate with whoever they land closest to
Well, let me tell you about Roborovski dwarf hamsters. They’re the same size, fuzzy and cute with whiskers and they go FAST. They live in deserts around China. BBC did a thing on them too
It also can scream
@@Beelzebubby91 Yeah, it's truly romantic, when you go to the bar for a drink you mate with the closest person next to you
Reminds me of the African bullfrog warcry
Tiny, adorable, lives in the exact worst place for an amphibian, and will win a staredown with many different manifestations of death and terror in sequence during an evening stroll before becoming a comparable nightmare to a termite colony for its midnight snack.
... Also sounds like a dog toy. An exceptionally adorable dog toy. With a temper.
Seriously, Angry Birds DLC that.
That gulp of relief after the scorpion walked away was priceless!
Scorpion: "Get over here."
Frog: "I am invisible."
"His vision is based on movement !"
Wait... wrong movie...
@@TheNefastor actually in real life a frogs vision is based on movement.
Scorpion: "Wait. Frog, how long have you been here?"
Frog: "1 hour"
This is 2:33
The frog is John Cena
The bit where he accidentally ate some of the grass was so adorable.
"ugh, a vegetable... disgusting!"
Reminds my of my adf frogs at home. :D
"EW I TOUCHED IT"
reminds me of when my dog accidentally eats the spinach we put in her food
It’s like me trying to get hold of my straw 😅
The frog "gulping" after the scorpion leaves was something else 🤣
The Foley guys on these nature docs deserve more credit. The squishes and scrunches bring these silent macro shots to life.
That swallow was too funny
He may be the equivalent of a marshmallow with feet, but this smol, cute froggo has the heart of a lion.
Marshmallow with feet? That's a nice way to it but he is a miny balloon with a heart of a lucky predator
I love this comment

I enjoyed the sound effects for how silly they were. The frog gulping after the scorpion leaves, and the squeezing balloon at the end of the video made me chuckle.
Made me picture the sound engineers in the studio squeezing a water balloon. Lol
@@squigglypeterson7157 The foley artist guy who creates all of these animal sounds must have had a field day.
Still better than Monster Bug Wars lmao
These aren't the actual recorded sounds from these tiny things, right?
@@last1second Right. I'm no expert, but it's common for productions of all types to add in sound effects after the fact. As you can imagine, it's probably hard to catch all the little sounds when filming nature like this.
Man whoever is producing the sound effects deserves a raise🤣 top tier immersion
I agree
Yes

The fact that the camera crew manage to zoom the lenses right into the frog and scorpion's face is amazing.
You are aware that this is in a studio? They poured some sand on a table and stuck some bundles of grass in
@@alexanderleuchte5132 Really? I thought BBC earth's videos are real.
@@hyperactvehuman Close ups like this and timeloops are often filmed in a recreated enviroment, as long as the animals behaviour isn't changed nature filmers consider it legit
@@alexanderleuchte5132 I've heard they do that sometimes, but there are some really great professional cameras with lenses that can have up to 100x zoom. But from all the detailed noises being picked up it does sound like it's in a recreated environment with microphones all over the place.
@@winddoggo9406 sounds are always edited in, it's not microphones lol
Maybe it should try its "Sonorous Warcry"
SQUEEEEEEK!!!!!
Exactly
Yaassss,! was looking for this in the comments
Baaaaaay!

@2:35 me when im laying back on the sofa and some of the chips fall on my shirt and im too lazy to wipe them off so i use my tongue
Frogs are basically gumdrops with legs.
Taste tho haha
I heard them being described as heads with just enough leg to throw the mouth at food
🤣
Or just tiny ball with legs for the rain frogs
I am glad that he is back after many years and still doing good. He is no longer angry but has gotten fat though.
Good for him
He is pleasantly plump
me sneaking across the house to get a glass of water trying not to wake anyone up:
I like how his main method of self defense is to go 'I would rather not'
I would say his main defense with the ability to inflate himself which makes the snake not only have a problem getting a hold of him but practically impossible to try to swallow
I liked his gulp when the scorpion moved on.
Lol
He was holding his breathe so the scorpion wouldn't hear him!
"Phew, dodged a bullet there!"
I screamed the entire time I watched this both for complete adoration for him and his cuteness and also the fear of anything happening to him
I would hate to live with you if you screamed for 3 minutes straight
@@RagdollWraith I would like to live with someone like that😂
She's a screamer folks
screaming over random things? Doesn't sound fun. Unless you like to prank people then i understand.

Let’s take a moment and appreciate the camera man’s work ✊🏼
Yeah 😀
Yes exactly.
Actually, this looks like it was filmed in a controlled environment
I have no idea how they do it, amazes me every time.
They're all paid actors
What a smart little froggy, just running his errands.
The efficiency at which he dispatched the termites is genuinely outstanding.
I really love the idea of these people filming this on a set, as if they picked out all of these critters from an enclosure and put them in the perfect spot!
There are a lot of ways to do these type of shooting, you can record separate footage at different settings then merge them together
"Be brave little frog, for the night is dark and full of terrors"
What a wonderful frog .May he live much longer..
His fat body will sure he lives long
I feel like they set him up though 🤔
These little guys have adorable little dumplings.

Narrator: "The frog must survive deadly encounters with snakes and scorpions in order to feed"
Reality: The snake and scorpion are the frog's friends who he stopped to chat with before dinner
Friends that bite and sting
Friends are friends.
Frog: "Hey bob"
Snake: "Hey dave, wanna come closer so I can eat you?"
Frog: "Nah man I'm on lunch, maybe tomorrow"
Snake: "Alright then, have a nice evening."
Frog: "Hey Darrel"
Scorpion: "Hey dave, you coming over here to get stung?"
Frog: "Nah man, just out for a bite to eat."
Scorpion: "Ah, coming to the termites then. Good choice."
Frog: "yeah figured I'd treat myself."
Scorpion: "Alright then, goodnight Dave."
Frog: "Later Darrel."
@@sangralknight3031This is so Beatrix Potter!!! (A little darker...but still!!!)
I always wonder how they manage to get such good angles, with good quality without disturbing the wildlife ❤️
1. extremely good camaras that can zoom really really far
2. lying down with the camara pointed at a thing for hours until something interesting happens
3. they don't write the scripts or anything until after they've captured the footage, so whatever good stuff they are able to get is what we see
Huge lenses.
In this case it might be a set in a studio. The sand looks too smooth and especially the lighting and the background look very unnatural.
@@Schwarzkittel Nah I think they edit the background to make it look like this. If they watjed to fake it, it wouldn't be hard to add foliage.
@@MenachemSchmuel that takes some dedication
I'm a little disappointed that this little frog didn't give his sonorous war cry. But it's still a great clip.
Scorpion: Moves away
Desert frog: *gulp*
This Frog just taught 2 vital lessons :
1. when to be patient and silent in life and
2. when to be aggressive ✌🏻 timings matters

Those sound effects! When the scorpion finally decides to leave, the frog gulps. And when he adjusted his position they added the sound of a balloon being rubbed. Really cute video! They are simply adorable little Potato Faeries!!
nothing can stop that ball with legs, man. such a king
Is this the sequel to "the ferocious angry frog" and its squeak

Yes
I love the way these guys walk, it’s freaking hilarious to watch.
I love how long his back legs extend as he walks hahahhaa
The way they edited the sounds into this frog is so good.
I know I'm late to the scene, but I think he passed gas/tooted/farted/broke wind @ the end!? Adorable. Lovely footage
That is the sound of a very. Very angry frog.
I thought about the same video. I thought this was going to be a second part of the war cry but I was hoping they didn't tease the little frog to make him angry 😁
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP
Squuueeeek
Unlike other frogs which croaks, this one actually squeaks. Would be interesting to see how their tadpole actually survive and grew throughout the dry arid landscape.
Rain frogs don’t have a tadpole stage, they emerge from the egg as froglets
Oh my, his little squishy bottom at 01:13...LOVE HIM!
I've always had a soft spot for Breviceps-type frogs, glad to see we are getting a lot of great footage and knowledge of them these days.
He's so cute when he snapped the leaves and used his tiny hands to take it off his mouth.. And also the way he eat and blink is so adorable...
2:54 when he uses his hands to get the branch out his mouth is so cute
