The Terror of the Tropics | Beyond the Backyard | Nebula Plus

The most fearsome predators of the invertebrate world are centipedes. Armed with the most painful bite of any arthropod and a terrifying appearance to match, they can be the stuff of nightmares for many people. In this adventure across the US and Asia, join biologist Spencer Hoffman as he faces his fear of centipedes by getting hands on with some of the largest and most venomous species in the world. My name is Spencer Hoffman. I’m a biologist and filmmaker from North Carolina and my goal is to find the most extreme life forms in the world—from the strangest, to the deadliest— and capture the stories of how their insane lifestyles help them to survive on our Weird Planet.
