Killer Ants

Saw the second 1/2,those driver ants,looked scarily organised.Rivers of them flowing to search for prey,with the soldier ants guarding both sides.
'THE' predator,lions & tigers look quite girly in comparison.

I thoroughly enjoyed the programme. You could just imagine those Tasmanian Ants shouting "Come and have a go if you think you're hard enough", couldn't you?

Real mean, nasty little barstewards.

I did think for a bit, that HMP's could have a large container with a bivverwak (sp?) of 20m Driver ants, that peadophiles could be thrown into!

You may be onto something there Gaz,I can think of several groups of unwanted'nasties'that could be efficiently 'dissapeared'in this manner

The bloke who said his first meeting of the Jack Jumper ant was when it bit him on the groin.

...Then there is, of course, the famous British Ant. Apparently as they get older, they lose their hair and are confined to mental wards for their own protection:

"So be wary of anyone who runs an ant farm."

Well they're easier to keep than pigs.

I have a bona-fide phobia of ants - can't stand 'em. Think it stems back to an event in my childhood, where as a young boy, I apparently stepped by bare foot straight into a fire ants nest at the beach.

I've had a phobia of the little critters since, and like all phobia sufferers, we like feeding it by watching shows that only make us more scared. Which is why I wish caught that show last night!

I once got bitten on the arse by a large red ant when I was half way through absailing down a cliff. I saw the little b*gger crawl up my sleeve when I was on the top but couldn't flush him out before the instructor said it was my turn to go. It stung quite a lot.
