The mantis shrimp is known for its incredible punch, striking with the speed of a bullet and enough force to shatter glass. But how does this tiny marine creature achieve such power? In this video, we ...

With a single, strong punch, they can smash a shell with the force of a .22 caliber bullet, unleash a shockwave and even ...

The punch of the mantis shrimp has been studied in detail. As it moves through the water at high speed, it produces what is known as a cavitation bubble. As water is pushed aside at high speed, its ...

Scientists have confirmed that not Mike Tyson, but the mantis shrimp has the fastest punch in the world using its special ...

“The periodic region plays a crucial role in selectively filtering out high-frequency shear waves, which are particularly ...

How mantis shrimp withstands shock of its .22 caliber bullet punch, study reveals Mantis shrimp are colorful creatures with an incredibly powerful punch — comparable to a .22 caliber bullet. This ...

A mantis shrimp's punch creates high-energy waves. Its exoskeleton is designed to absorb that energy, preventing cracking and tissue damage.

Shrimp and fleas inspire the latest generation of robotics, using soft, rubbery materials to generate powerful motion.

A research team has developed the "hyperelastic torque reversal mechanism" (HeTRM), inspired by natural principles, allowing robots made of rubber-like materials to perform rapid, powerful movements.

According to researchers, the mantis shrimp strikes with speeds of up to 55.6 mph (90 km/h) to break its prey, and the flea can jump more than 200 times its body length. The ability of these ...
