I watched that one a few weeks ago when I was bored. Very interesting. They did a follow-up documentary as well on the insects that share relations with Ection burchellii.

Ikr? I would think that would be painful. I mean, they don't have the most painful sting, but it's still a 1.5 and there are a lot of them...

The almost unchallenged organization and efficiency of these ants is so incomprehensibly amazing. We have many lessons to learn from them.

That part made my heart race...
