I'm supposed to be working on a paper right now (shh, don't tell my advisor). But searching through journal articles reminded me of these fine examples of weird science. Yes folks, someone got a grant to study this stuff!

The title really just speaks for itself on this one.
Directed aerial descent in canopy ants
Most amusing is the methods. And of course the videos.
Ballistic jaw propulsion in trap-jaw ants
Again, it's all about the videos and more videos!
