To find the good, the bad and ugly of the insect world, Ruud Kleinpaste - New Zealands very own BugMan - embarks on an entomological journey in search of the biggest and the baddest of them all in this two part DVD.
From killer bees and army ants, to cockroaches and tarantula, Ruud explains exactly what makes the "stars" of the show so incredible. Through a series of deadly stunts Ruud reveals what makes these crawlies the kings of the bugs and how they are capable of so much more than just scaring us silly.
Bonus Feature - Spider Power
Did you know that at any given moment you are probably never further away than six feet from a spider?
SPIDER POWER traces the evolution of arachnid attack mechanisms: from the most basic brute force attacks right through to spiders that can plan and predict an attack the smart spiders. Spiders are natures ultimate predators.
Weaponry in the spider world includes spray guns, camouflage and even smart technology. Using computer graphics and never-before-seen footage, we delve into the dark underworld of deadly arachnids as they deploy weapons, ambush and malice to defeat their enemies.
