Creepy Crawly Crazy UV Blacklight Scorpion Adventure

[@charleswilder2985]

Beau, has your light never attracted/aggravated rattlers? Mom was a rock hound. At Hot Springs, SD, at my uncle's place, Mom and I were using the black light to hunt fluorescing minerals, and either 5 or 6 rattlers suddenly came from several directions right to us! I boosted Mom onto a large boulder, scrambled up behind her, and together we yelled for help. We turned off that light, of course. Uncle Jim and Dad came with ordinary flashlights and big sticks, making lots of thrashing noise, and drove off the snakes. We did not hunt that way again. My research did not reveal any evidence that the light attracted them, but otherwise why were they so aggressive?

[@SheilaDunning]

Thanks for the laughs. This is the first time I have seen someone have so much fun with a uv light and scorpions.

[@ShellyAnn1a]

Was out on a snake hunting trip and came across a big fat scorpion. Under natural light it was a dark reddish brown, under UV it was like the ones in the video. I was going to keep it for a few days, photograph it, then turn it loose near where I caught. The day of its freedom, I checked on it and was going to give it a nice fat cricket before turning it loose. What I found was surprising, during the night she gave birth to a huge herd of babies. So as to not make her reject them, I kept her for a few weeks, feeding them crickets. When the babies started to fall off and not return, I decided it was getting time to turn her loose. There were close to 40 babies and they were eating pinhead size crickets. I turned them loose when their exoskeleton started to change color to the reddish-brown like their mom's was. It was sort of fun raising them. Unlike the ones in your video, these had short claws, not the long thin ones. I read that the claw size and shape was an indication of the toxicity of their venom. The ones you were showing here would be of a variety that are very venomous. I have a set of long forceps that I use to catch them with, then take them to the University where they are doing venom research. I am really enjoying you Arizona adventures. Have A Beautiful and Wondrous Day, Be Safe In Your Travels and Adventures.

You really are funny, Count Chiggula!

[@stubs1227]

Something tells me chigg needs more supervision. LMAO.

[@blackcadillac8083]

There are scorpions in Italy🇮🇹. I was staying at my family's farmhouse in Bastia, Italy. I went outside on the farm at night with a ultraviolet light and saw scorpions crawling all over the farm and crawling, huding in the cracks of the stone walls. I caught 3 of them in a glass jar. They were about 1.5 inches long and brown.

[@Dstew57A]

Very original. You are a hoot and very entertaining🤣. Interesting and fun. Thx

[@urbanexploringwithkappy1773]

Very neat video as usual!!! You always crack me up😂 thank you Aqua Chigger!

[@dehalfacre2370]

Chigg. The new addition to the blue man group.

[@karenkozak2068]

Not sure which was more creepy! I think about these things every time I walk outside at night. Thanks, Chigg.

[@DaveLennonCopeland]

I remember your UV scorpion videos from last year... all very fascinating. :)

[@susansmith6680]

The ultimate game of (black light) flash light tag! Thanks for the fun... You're it!!!!!

[@grandprismatic]

Phosphorus rich minerals in rock show up under UV light. Lots of cool rocks that people put in UV displays.

[@deborahbradshaw6370]

I was stung on the stomach as I leaned up against the cedar railing on my back porch. Now that really stung. After that I would go out on the porch at night with my regular flashlight and at find them on my stucco walls and then I would spray them with raid. Of course the majority of my house was rock and I had to take the bed skirt off if my beds to keep them from crawling into bed at night.

[@jeffdankert2421]

The ad that displayed at the start of this video was "Discover Your Shocking Horoscope." L O L

[@leannkennedy6826]

I laughed so many times at your antics!!! Fun video, Chigg!

[@Uniquelyyours1]

I was holding my breath a lot. I thought a Samsquanch was going to get you. Stay safe, Beau:)

[@donbates9610]

Great video Chig . Thanks for taking us along it was awesome

[@keithjohnson6352]

" Thank's Chigger, I Won't Be Able Too Sleep, A Wink.!!! "

[@jimgriffiths9071]

Good one Chig! Glad you left the easter egg hunt behind.....

[@Stevendebyi]

Depends on the size some of the most dangerous scorpions are tiny the large ones feel like a bad bee sting but the small ones will leave you crying in agony for hours I was stung in Texas at 4 years old while picking wild grapes standing on a pile of old bricks never seen it coming but felt it for sure over the next 4 hours my foot swelled to the point that the bottom near my heal split open like a dropped watermelon the worse pain I have ever been through I respect them and keep my distance they are one of God's beautiful creatures and they can and will defend themselves take my advice watch where you step and shake your boots out before slipping them on

[@Jumpboots_Jamstrang]

The scorpions really pop on camera. Cool effect. I used to do this in Arizona!

[@Doomzdayisgone1969]

[@alaskafun522]

That was just what I needed... to not sleep! Lol

[@christinesaint9414]

Brilliant video as usual, thanks for sharing. 🤗🤗

[@dustin8421]

Aquachigger is the scorpion king lol

[@beepbeepcoyote]

Lmfao at 24:15 You sound like the cript keeper😲😲😲😲

[@diamondmaster6836]

The chiggs a blue alien hold your breath

[@Rob-ze1wi]

usually, but not always, an inverse relationship with claw size and venom potency exists. smaller the claw the more potent the venom.

[@natashamariani5823]

Rob could be! The bark scorpion is very dangerous. Tiny little monsters. I am unfortunate enough to be a victim of a bark scorpion sting. I have permanent nerve damage and a allergy to hornets now.

[@beepbeepcoyote]

There are several minerals that emit light, orglow under black lights (ultraviolet (UV) light). Non-visible (to the human eye) black light reacts with the chemicals in minerals and causes the rock to fluorescence. If theglow remains after you remove the light source, you have a phosphorescence mineral.

[@NoahSeidenberg]

This gave me the creeps Beau

[@Love2Wander]

Awesome video thanks for sharing as i live in the desert

[@TheRooster1122]

Chig your crazy buddy!! I sure love your videos..

[@MrAmptech]

[@videoman1670]

You're hilarious and cool to watch !!!!!!!!!

[@AdventuresIntoHistory]

Scorpions used to be my favorite critter when I was a kiddo.

[@hardyakka6200]

I worked for a exploration company many years ago. We went out one night looking for sheerlite is a garn formation. I found many Spiders that glow the same brilliant blues as sheerlite.

[@bratwurst2923]

Cool video! funny! Love your channel!!

[@billyriley1479]

That must have been amazing to experience, thank you for taking us along.

[@fredlatimer9106]

One interesting thing my mother told me about scorpions in Louisians, she witnessed a scorpion go after a cockroach. The roach placed a wing on the back of the scorpion, which in turn stabbed through the feint, and died.

[@joewolfy0074]

GREAT VIDEO CHIGG!

[@cd1673]

HAAA HA HA!!! You've lost your mind!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@MrPlasticdinosaur484]

The picture on the video looks like that guy from sons of guns,that's locked up lol

[@CoinandRelicOntario]

Hilarious house of Frankenstein, that's what I thought about when you put the light to your face Chigg! LOL!! Probably calcite or other fluorescent mineral in the rock. Very cool vid!

[@advenzures]

Great video!

[@ChrisandSohee]

Nice Video, Keep up the good work!

[@dorfsteen]

If I Didn't Know Better I thought I heard a barking spider lol

[@ZeroDiscrimination]

Edit* I’ve just finished watching and thank you once again brother, for taking my mind down a far better route during a testing time. Peace Charlie

[@thomasfletcher4109]

Enjoyed this video. When will we get to see MOAR like this?

[@Wvnursey]

Love the desert!

[@igkgigoh]

Thumbnail = Gold

[@RedNeckEric]

Lmao dang ever since i got tagged twice by a scorpion 🦂 a few days ago it seems every video that pops up has to do with scorpions 🤦🏼‍♂️😂🤣

[@urbanairgunner6402]

You've been on the road to long LOL.

[@sharonzona4346]

So cool how vibrant green they glow under the blacklight. Did you get a sample of one of those stones to figure out what it was? Thanks for getting us so close to a scorpion without having to experience the danger you did.

[@detectingrose2221]

Thanks to your videos I went on a scorpion hunt This is amazing thanks for showing us this we have them living here in Florida I did know that them erred here I found mine in the house thanks again

[@claytonsmith1063]

I just can't seem to figure out why the Chigg doesn't pet those nice friendly scorpions... I thought that the scorpions felt badly because Chigg doesn't pet them...

[@jessebellis478]

Love the videos Your the best 😁 highly insperational as always !! RESPECT !!

[@KMBlaster]

Those rocks have unicorn blood on them

[@pj123xyz]

Kurt L no it's just their pee that glows. 😂

[@TowGuyUSA]

Great video chigger

[@stevenz1396]

Thank you chigg for another great video 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@cryptonight4860]

Interesting video!..At 15:19 my first thoughts was "Here's Johnny!" from the movie The Shining!..LOL

[@MrsC48]

Scorpions? No thank you. Last week I woke up to my cat pawing at a bark scorpion on the wall right above my bed. Creepy is right.

[@LavishHim]

Out of control again.

[@candysantillo3325]

Lmao circle of life face😂😂😂

[@lueyadams]

Every time you act like a goof ball I call you a dork but I'm laughing at your dorkyness so I feel like a dork. 😂😄 love your videos!

[@evelynelefebvre1502]

I love your face and scorpions :) Good vidéo :) Ty

[@blackdog.6398]

They love close lines as well birdshot loads in a American Dillinger 9mm ....always for small snakes and unwanted animals...

[@secondswell]

What the crap is a Dillinger?

[@jimjustice581]

Watching their movements, it looks like the scorpions react to the black light like we would with a spotlight in our face 😁.

[@j.t.8848]

Awesome video ChigguaAquer. A masterpiece I think. More blacklight adventures!

[@Rubysrescue]

Geez! I would have been happy if I listened to my inner self and didn't watch this. I was stung right here at this desk by a scorp... 3 x's in the knee. Darn thing got into my pant leg. I find them occasionally on my walls and ceilings.. Best of your vid is the one you had lite up and the scorp caputured the moth. Love you video's.. please tell me what flash light your using. I need a better one and you seem to have a decent one. I have little ones in my house and patrol for scorps often.

[@Wattablast50]

You are just having too much fun with that black-light! LOL Great video as always!

[@smetlogik]

People would freak if they knew how many of those buggers are crawling around in AZ. We find a ton when we're out looking for snakes in AZ. Kinda unnerving when they show up in your campsite. 😲 Sweet vid.

[@pj123xyz]

Pretty cool. Looks like fun. I didn't know they glowed like that. Is that a black light flashlight?

[@ToyotaPrius117]

Saw the picture of you under the black light and thought "that's a weird picture of jack Nicholson"

[@desmondpiper8578]

Exactly my thoughts, " heeeres Johnny "

[@jimmyfiggs6293]

I love the Scorpions ....... Rock You Like A Hurricane.

[@lesahanners5057]

Dude, that was a seriously skin crawling experience. I had to stop the video a couple of times I was getting so creeped out. I think you could be hired to scare small children at parties. I know if I saw your face suddenly appear like that, up out of the bushes, I would just keel over with a heart attack. The scorpions were sorta creepy too. LOL

[@dawncarpenter5619]

A very awesome adventure! Thank you!

[@johnrobertson8156]

Kinda like hold your breath, except it's shake your boots. Nice video.

[@OldButStillKicking]

There had to be cactus juice involved. Just say'n. LOL!

[@Kchill1986]

@ 15:17 i laughed so hard i started coughing!

[@shrekonions9857]

[@tonnyaadams2100]

He looks like the guy from the shining here's Johnny

[@SmallWonda]

Great video - but WAY TOO creepy (not being a fan of scorpions, even though they may look very striking!) I think you should have been in The Moovies! :)

[@janvafa4253]

Ok ... now I am officially freaked out ... a glowing wing... has Chigg discovered a new species of scorpion that FLIES?!?!?!? That is worse than spiders for sneaking up on you!!!!!

[@suethomas9446]

Well i have started writing my kids book with the man who owns a shop in a town in Louisiana named Rocks and Relics . The owner is named Bo And the spooky mystery of two teenagers visiting there grandmother over the summer to dig and find relics of the past that should have been left buried. And the store owner named Bo leads them into many mysterious places looking for answers to the past. What yall think. Sounds like anyone we all know. What do you think.chigg.

[@colleenposadas8415]

just the whacky intro made it worth watching!!!😄

[@Discover_E1983]

You are absolutely freaking nuts. I love your videos hahaha you have got a pair on you my man. I'll see you on the next one.......... hopefully.😂😂😂🖒😎🍻

[@jekyllhyde4363]

love the video

[@oddryan8896]

A good bet with scorpions is stay away from the ones with small claws

[@oddryan8896]

Love your videos buddy

[@bobbybaldeagle702]

Those are one thing I'd rather not be around!!! They like to climb into places they should NEVER go like my sleeping bag with me in it or my boots. Always check your shoes and or boot, clothes beefore putting them on!!!! Those nasty little thing are wicked!!!

[@dragonmaster1079]

Just like a big kid. with a new toy lol

[@johngoodall7097]

The fun you have, and the antics you and your friends get up to, is so enjoyable to all us subscribers, I have personally watched hundreds of your various types of adventures and this is my first comments, keep doing what you do so well, from John in England.

[@phxtonash]

That was hilarious that Circle of Life

[@MikeDesertHunterHale]

The smaller the more poisonous, I do remember, in the Nevada Desert I had a scorpion run across my shoe one night, I bent down to pick it up, I thought it was a lizard, yes that big, I'm glad I saw it first ...
