A bailisk lizard literally runs on the waters surface. How? "Its right leg sweeps back and inward in a movement that is very similar to the crawl stroke when swimming" . The result is an S-shaped movement as it thrusts forward. Comments?

Good point. There are spiders that can stand on the water, due to surface tension, but it'd be pretty hard for a human to do that.
