I am really scared of roaches! In this video, Coyote Peterson puts five hundred roaches in this box that he made. Then he puts his head in the box and puts the roaches in! He has a friend named Mike Easter. Mike is TERRIFIED of roaches!! He won't even go near roaches. He watched Coyote Peterson put so many roaches in the box and he said: " Coyote if I were you I would already pass out".Coyote Peterson was trying to convince Mike that you don't have to be scared of roaches. He really even wanted to have Mike hold one. But at the end of the video, Mike said "I am still not even going to hold it or even go near it". I understand that of course because I am also pretty scared of them too.
Coyote Peterson puts five hundred roaches into the box. He starts with ten Madagascar hissing cockroaches first. They come from the island of Madagascar of course.
Coyote Peterson said that roaches have three pairs of legs on each side and they have tiny claws which allow them to grip to irregularities of any surface. Which is really impressive for roaches.
The next type of roaches that Coyote Peterson is going to be putting in is called Dubia Cockroach. The Dubai cockroach is much faster than the Madagascar cockroaches.
Coyote Peterson said that Joe Rogan actually ate a hissing cockroach as a part of the series. He asked Mike if he would eat a cockroach and he said "there's not a dollar amount that would convince me to eat a roach. That's just gross".
There is a cockroach inside Coyote Peterson's ear. Coyote Peterson also said that what people fear the most is that roaches will come and lay eggs inside of their ears. But that is a complete misnomer. It will definitely not happen. He said it smells horrible inside the box because there are so many cockroaches inside.
The reason people are so afraid of cockroaches is that they are so fast and they see them in their kitchen and freak out.
Roaches as a species can survive almost anything.
After watching that video I am still definitely scared of roaches.
