In the video, a person is seen holding a piece of cardboard and shaking it to release a group of cockroaches onto a table. The cockroaches are scattered across the table, and the person then proceeds to pick them up and place them into a container. The container appears to be a small plastic bowl. The person's actions are deliberate and careful as they handle the cockroaches. The video provides a close-up view of the cockroaches and the person's hands, allowing for a detailed observation of the insects and their movements.
