Spread The Viralist



Stunning footage of one of Planet Earth’s greatest spectacles, the swarm of the Desert Locust – Eggs that have remained in the ground for twenty years now begin to hatch. Considering that an adult Locust can eat its entire body weight everyday, it’s hardly surprising that a huge plague measuring 40 miles wide will devour everything in its path.

  1. Locusts are one of Mother Earth's ways of fighting back against the human plague.
    Insects are the most beautiful, perfect, powerful and dangerous creatures in the natural world.

  2. Something tells me that ever since I saw bug's Life a long time ago I don't think Hoppers are regular normal grasshopper. I think according to my thought and to this cyclopedia I think Hopper is a locust. Reason why he wants to attack the colony and enslave them is because he thinks that his ancestors from Egypt are good at creating a locust plague around innocent people and insects.

  3. The camera people could have definitely contributed to the battle against the locusts by burning all those hoppers after recording their footage. Just saying.

  4. "The steady road of a billion beating locust wings will once again be replace by nothing more than the sound of the desert wind" favourite line 🌸

  5. ….If you wish you can reflect on the locust (as well). Allah gave it two red eyes, lighted for them two moon-like pupils, made for it small ears, opened for it a suitable mouth and gave it keen sense, gave it two teeth to cut with and two sickle-like feet to grip with. The farmers are afraid of it in the matter of their crops since they cannot drive it away even though they may join together. The locust attacks the fields and satisfies its desires (of hunger) from them although its body is not equal to a thin finger.
    (Nahjul Balagha of Ali ibn Abi Talib, vol.2 ,part of sermon 185)

  6. Quran (18:109)
    In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.

    (Say, "If the sea were ink for [writing] the words1 of my Lord, the sea would be exhausted before the words of my Lord were exhausted, even if We brought the like of it in [continual] supplement.")

    Allah Almighty is Truthful

  7. “They will consume every edible thing that lies in their path”
    Sounds like my family at an all you can eat buffet.

  8. Now imagine worse than this when the judgment of God comes. You don't have to be left behind Jesus already paid the price for God's wrath for the sins of mankind. All you have to do is believe that Jesus paid the price and accept His gift to save your soul from eternal judgment and separation from God.
    Then out of the smoke locusts came upon the earth. And to them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. They were commanded not to harm the grass of the earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but only those men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. And they were not given authority to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a man. In those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will desire to die, and death will flee from them. The shape of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle. On their heads were crowns of something like gold, and their faces were like the faces of men. They had hair like women’s hair, and their teeth were like lions’ teeth. And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots with many horses running into battle. They had tails like scorpions, and there were stings in their tails. Their power was to hurt men five months.
