Richard Dawkins/Funny
- In part 3 of his Growing Up In The Universe, he begins by bringing out two types of insects that mimic twigs and dead leaves (or a scorpion!), to show the characteristics of disguise they've evolved. He goes to put them in a terrarium, but they really don't want to go in. Hilarity Ensues as they crawl behind his head, cling to his and his assistant's shirts, and generally do all they can to stay out of the box.
