Joe’s clearly thinking about how to construct a bear proof bat skin suit

**Dragonflies and their 90% hunt success rate have entered the chat**

All I got from this video is I need a pair of bat skin gloves.

I've been wearing bat skin condoms for 184 years

I want this guy to teach me everything he knows

This dude just loves bats so much

The four bony elongated fingers on each arm allow them to change the shape of the wing in a moment. They can make a 180° turn in less than half of their wingspan. Some have short wide wings for maneuverability whilst others have long narrow wings for traveling distances. The thin membrane of their skin heals 10 times faster than human skin. The hairs on their minute wings allow them to detect turbulence which might cause them to stall.

One more cool thing, is that bats can still fly with a broken wing. If they break a bone, the swelling around the break act as a splint. So while the bone heals, they can still fly as normal.

Joe: "But have you seen a Grizzlie Bear?"

This is such a wholesome episode. He would be amazing in teaching young children about bats.

Owls don’t make a single sound. You’ll never even hear it coming. It’s incredible.

“Thats crazy man, hey Jamie pull up that video of the bear slaughtering a deer”

"You know what they call bats? - Chicken of the cave"

“Jaime pull up the video of the polar bears with wings”

There's a group of bats that live near my house and in the summer time at sunset I can watch them fly around my yard eating mosquitoes. They can make the sharpest turns I've ever seen. They literally make 180° turns like a zero turn lawn mower. If they didn't squeak and squeal while they fly they would be virtually silent

Bro sounds like his life revolves around bats

Joe Rogan: "I am the Batman."

"No skin off my batwing." - a witch being dismissive.

Joe: "So that's why the Dr used a bat for my prostate exam".

Dragonflies and hummingbirds left the chat

I work with bodies and bro these gloves are strong as hell😂😂. That shit is wild Edit: For the people who think I’m a dr or some shit lol. I’m not. I’m a removal technician so whenever one of your family members die (god forbid) depending on where and how me and a partner will be dispatched to go in and remove the body. P.s not a dr just use the same gloves lol.

F in the chat for the bat whose wing they ripped to test how strong it is

Owls: But you can't hear me coming

You think bats are maneuverable until you see an owl catch one

I think Dragonflies could give them a run for the money.

Now we’re gonna get awesome bat stories from Joe instead of the standard bear and wolf stories👍

Hummingbird: "hold my beer"

Started a brief statement about bat's with the video of a hummingbird. Genius level work

This guy would absolutely love my ball skin

I'm no surgeon or tensile strength examiner.... But quick Google and it seems surgeon gloves are slightly higher MPa than human skin...... So maybe he shoulda said 20 times stronger than human skin. Round number with a skin on skin comparison! ;)

*Joe trying to think of what a bat sound would sound like*

Albatross: Can bats fly across an entire ocean? No.

19 times as tough as a flimsy thing

This man knows a lot about bats, like he is some kind of bat man

Batman made his armor out of genuine batskin

Well I’ma be flyin in the summer when my nuts are bat wingin it to my legs

"jamie- pull up the video of that bear fighting bats"

Batman’s PR team did a good job with this one

Surgical glove strength is now my go to metric for all things.

I think this guy is an undercover vampire

Well I’ll be inventing bat wing condoms.

Thought he was going to say,” My bawbag”. :)

A bat in your house would turn the toughest man into a little girl...

This is the first Rogan clip I've ever seen where they established a point, get to the point, and finish the damn point all before the short ends.

Dragonflies: Am I a joke to you?

My cat brought me a bats head.

My cats catch bats out of the sky all the time and drop them off on my front porch.

i just learned more about bat swings than i knew possible.

*I LOVE PEOPLE LIKE THIS GUY, THAT KNOW RANDOM FACTS ABOUT THINGS YOU WOULD NEVER THINK ABOUT, BUT REALIZE YOU ALWAYS WISH YOU KNEW*

"tougher than a surgeon's glove" whoa 😳😄

He is the real Alfred😂🦇🦇🦇🦇

Dude had a few puffs😂

Imagine having the job of testing how many gloves of strength bat wings are

I knew bats wings were amazing when I saw The Beastmaster.

RIP to the bat's wings we ripped to test their rip strength.

Wanna see saint rogie do an impersonation of this guy one day

Joe - "Okay, enough about bats, did you see this bear attack?"

The dragonfly entered the chat.

I was in the Philippines, and we were outside near a street light watching bats catching bugs. We would throw pebbles into the air and watch the bats chase them to the ground. They are incredibly fast and maneuverable

I got to studying bats about 10 years ago. Utterly fascinating and critical to our environment. I guarantee you will not be disappointed if you do some research.

And then people in China are like, I wanna eat that

nurse: doc! were out of gloves doc: go get me bats😋😋

The tiny swift does extreme maneuvers for fun and keep repeating the pattern to get as close to say the structure of a bridge as possible. It's amazing to watch them they're like the daredevils or stuntmen of birds!

Okay, Alfred... Master Wayne appreciates your service.

But mostly, bats just fly into aunt Helen's hair because Nothing is that maneuverable

Anybody else just get reminded of the “Batwing” in the movie “Waiting”? 😂

They may scare people but they are hella cute

I lived by one of the largest brown bay caves in the country, possibly the workd. Iron mountain Mi. It’s an old iron mine that they fenced off for the bats

“19 times tougher than a surgeon’s gloves”- what a bizarre unit of multiplication, and an even more bizarre point of reference.

This is why vampires can't have children

Props to OP for putting the episode in the description.

Dragonfly enters the chat:

Batman: that’s what I’ve been saying this whole time!!!

Joe was thinking bat vs bear 100%

Joe is truly talented, he can talk with anyone with a monotone boring voice and captivate us all

I like to watch them how they fly when it’s getting dark. First I’m thinking, it’s a bird but then I realize, it’s to dark already and the birds are chillin already. They coming from nowhere and in less than a second, they gone. Special close to a lantern you can see them. Little bit creepy but at same time impressive. Amazing creatures. They actually blind but how the navigate with ultrasound waves, unbelievable.

"He's the BATMAN" 😈

Less Bat's in my hood since Covid.

The real bathman

Dudes never seen a dragonfly

I used to go to a pone near my house right when it got dark and the bats would come out and I would watch how close they would get to the water without touching it and eat mosquitoes. They always look like the are out of control but they never mess up in flight.

This man was Alfred in a past life.

19% surgical gloves sounds like good evolution for stick pokes

When I was a teenager, I was out camping with my family as we did often, and I was sitting off to the side of our tent outside the glow of the fire, and I had a branch in my hand. Out of nowhere a bat flies at me, jukes, and grabs the branch just hanging there looking at me. It must've gotten spooked or dizzied by the fire, I dunno, but I just sat there staring at the adorable little thing for like a minute before it swung up, let go and took off. I've adored them ever since.

I like when old people join the jre podcasts

Gloves? Idk what I was expecting 😂

Yet they rely on memory too In experiment, changing wall placement got bats hitting them. They memorize hunting area and use sound on insects.

Dude waited 90 years to tell us that

Bat skin: 2nd toughest skin known to man.

Imagine the haptic feedback your get from the flex from the air resistance when u flapped your bat wings. Insane. I recon I’d have such a good time turning into a bat and flying aorund

Damn jeepers kreepers had those wings😂

He's about to ask "what about 🐻 ?"

The wings on his bald head realy had me laughing. I haven't been sleeping enough

Me thinking of creating the next gen multirole fighter(plane) using bat tech

Funny lookin bat at the start

No wonder why batman likes them

Watched it like 4xs before realizing it was a loop lmao

They ate bat wings in the movie "three amigos" - You're welcome

Bats are fascinating creatures. I lived in san antonio for a couple of years and during my time there one of the many beautiful, and awesome things i had the opportunity to see were watching bats attack swarms of bugs that had gathered under streetlights in a parking lot. Watching one come in, seeing the moment he chooses wich bug he wants, then zeroeing on it in an intercept course and the funny little half flip as he gobbles the bug and disappears back into the shadow. Their success rate was every time, it seemed like. Once chosen, the bug has a better chance of spontaneous combustion, than escape. One night, i saw a guy pull up in a truck, get out, and walked up under the light swinging a tshirt over his head in a circular motion. I thought he was crazy! But after a few seconds bats started swooping down close to him eventually getting close enough that he changed the swing a little bit and caught the bat with a tshirt. Immediately he went to the back of his truck and gently removed the bat from the shirt. With expert skill he measured wingspan, sex, weight, and crimped a small tag on the base of his wing. A quick stick for a blood sample and the bat was given a big grub and left on the camper top to fly away when he was done eating the grub. I talked to the guy after he did 5 more and he was from an organization that monitors bats for rabies outbreaks, other diseases, diminishing populations, locating known roosting caves, or other structures that they hide in during the day. I talked this guys ear off with question after question and learned alot.

Bats are vastly under appreciated for what they accomplish.
