Nature’s Real-Life Tank Beetle

Did you know there’s a beetle that can survive being run over by a car? Meet the diabolical ironclad beetle—its exoskeleton is literally the strongest natural armor ever found. This little bug can take 39,000 times its own weight (imagine a human surviving 8 million pounds!). Scientists are so impressed, they’re studying its armor to inspire next-gen body armor and crash-proof vehicles. Nature’s engineering is wild! #Science #naturefacts #science
