Most people tend to think in clichés. So, should we go out and ask around which animals are the coolest, we're probably gonna get answers such as “duh, the lion,” “the tiger, obviously” or “I think I'm gonna choose the dolphin.”

Granted, these are all pretty awesome creatures, but there's more to nature than typically meets the National Geographic channel, and this guy here goes into an adorably-enthusiastic verbal tornado to make sure we know that.

The top ten “Animal Power Moves,” made by this nerdy-looking guy here, lifts up the curtain on animals we either always considered kind of lame, or we simply didn't even know existed, and introduces us to some of their “superhero” powers.

After watching this video, you'll probably want to stay clear of platypi, really angry beetles or sadistic moths.
