Of course the video doesn't show anything interesting, the mosquito's leg is hardly even grazed. I was definitely hoping for the version where a drop smacked the insect dead on target. Fairly strange for a lab result - if that's the only video that was captured, it really doesn't seem to divulge much at all. Where's the cool video? :D
Watching it several times, it looks like only the left most mozzie came out unscathed. The other two took it hard and went down... definitely didn't 'walk off the bus' :\
Yeah it's weird especially since you just get done reading about how they get away with getting hit between the wings and then you get told "if you want to see this for yourself, watch the video" ... lol

I was checking out that Andrew Dickerson dude's Youtube channel - https://www.youtube.com/user/andrew52987/videos - it's like a showcase for mosquito torture!

Still a good read with fun drawings :)
To me it looked like he linked the wrong video accidentally, since it didn't match up with the text at all.
