^Can you breathe under sand? Then go to hell.

EDIT: First comment was apparently deleted. Which makes my comment completely irrelevant.

Can`t say that I have "Ever wondered how a lizard can cope with the extreme temperatures of the Namib desert?" but it is very interesting. 5/5

It`s strange how they adapt instead of migrate. If i have to jump around in order to keep my feet from changing into charcoal, ill move to antarctica.

I`ve seen people dancing because of the hot sand. But the sight of it is much less dignified.

Pointless info time:

The sound you hear from 0:24 onwards, that sounds like a weird violin, is a preset in the Absynth software synthesizer by Native Instruments - the preset is called "Cooling the Plasma".
