this ant was trained by Charles Glass
An amazing image of an ant lifting 100 times its body weight has won first prize in a science photography contest.The image shows an Asian weaver ant hanging upside down on a glass-like surface and holding a 500mg (0.02oz) weight in its jaws. It was taken by zoology specialist Dr Thomas Endlein of Cambridge University as he researched insects' sticky feet. Or in Getbig language:Haha, oh brother, brutal toothpick legs and crap form attempting to lift 500mg without a spot.
