The video shows molten aluminium being poured into an ants nest to take a cast of it. Although the result is very beautiful, Im not sure I like the idea as I believe it is poured into an active ants nest. Although the video explains these ants are "red imported fire ants which are harmful to the environment and their nests are exterminated by the millions in the United States using poisons, gasoline and fire, boiling water, and very rarely molten aluminum."

Casting a Ant Nest
I found this video a couple seconds ago and felt it was both very strange but also beautiful.

Although the video explains these ants are "red imported fire ants which are harmful to the environment and their nests are exterminated by the millions in the United States using poisons, gasoline and fire, boiling water, and very rarely molten aluminum."
The end result is stunning and shows just how intricate a nest is.
