Shoemakers (Gerris sp.) have ability to walk on water, they are easy to walk on the surface of wells. And the expert has always been fascinated by this ability. Until now it was thought that they stayed on the water thanks to the wax deposits under the feet, but it seems that the lift is due to air bags that remain between the hairs of the feet and the stretch marks.
