That's awesome! I guess what I'm most surprised by is certain veins moving to different parts of the body mid breathe.

That is really cool thanks for sharing! Kind of reminds me of a watching a silkworms vein pulsing on their backs

That was amazing... I was disturbed and fascinated all at the same time

Cool as hell! So weird how bugs tend to have respiratory systems just connected to the outside world through a series of tubes as opposed to dedicated lungs. Never seen it in action like this before, wow.
