Hey Time Warp people could you do a segment about the Mantis Shrimp on your show. It would be a great idea because the mantis shrimp has one of the fastest strikes in the animal kingdom if not the fastest. The strike of an adult mantis shrimp has the force of a .22 caliber bullet. These creatures' nicknames are the thumb splitter. Also they can break glass when they get larger which is pretty cool. Have fun and thanks.

P.S. Youtube mantis shrimp and you'll see
