It is so funny that it deserves another blog entry. There is one famous old Chinese idiom &#8220;stopping a car with mantis arm&#8221;, which describes a person who overestimates his power and ability. Now I believe mantis is really a creature like that. Mantis Fist is also one of the popular Chinese Kung Fu (So in theory, you can defeat a Mantis Fist fighter with a car).<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/HRTvH2PByso\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mysabah.com\/images\/2006\/20060621.jpg\" alt=\"Crocodile Vs Mantis\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This praying mantis came from nowhere when I busy taking pictures of a python.
