Do cockroaches play dead?

I've been following a vlogger on youtube for awhile now. Her name is Natalie and she blogs about everyday things/silly stuff but she also includes skits in her videos which are really entertaining. She appeared on The Age about a week or 2 ago and was dubbed the "Queen of YouTube".
Anyway, whether or not you're familiar with this person, she's hilarious, and I found this video really funny. So I thought I'd share it with all.

I went out mamak with my parents last night, and I saw a cockroach running across the side of the road. I told my mum about the cockroach I saw and then that spurred a whole conversation about cockroaches.

I was talking about my phobia of cockroaches and how once a cockroach manage to sneak into my room and read my book WITH me *shivers* and how I ran up and down the house in search of somesort of a spray but only found an empty bottle and how i ended up spraying the thing with my deodarant and how it finally died in front of my parent's room and my dad stepped on it the next morning.

wooh. Horrible english btw. I hate cockroaches. They make me speak horrible english.

Does anyone wonder why cockroaches turn upside down when you attack them with Bygon or some other spray? You go like psssssssssss pssssssssss then they turn upside down and die automatically. Why do they do that? Do they play dead?

Huh? Even puppets get judged for losing weight now? Has the situation gotten THAT bad? Puppets want to lose weight too?

Maybe they go for "cottonsuction" rather than liposuction.

Miss Piggy was in hog heaven, sitting with the ladies of The View on Thursday to discuss her new book, The Diva Code: Miss Piggy on Life, Love, and the 10,000 Idiotic Things (Men) Frogs Do.

The program also showed a clip of the porcine star's 1996 performance singing "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend," which revealed a plumper Miss Piggy than the one sitting at the View table.
