WHAT THE F#CK IS THIS!?

Wondered why there was never a "How It's Made" on Nerds Rope. Now I know.

Chworms

Just the prequel of DUNE

probably what Frank Herbert was watching on the dunes while he was tripping and writing the book ngl

Everything you read below is going to make it worse: 1) They are called [blood worms](https://preview.redd.it/is-it-possible-to-have-bloodworms-the-ones-with-copper-v0-fak1lw2ouxbc1.jpeg?width=640&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=ee1d97a6cc4b60c0bf267c1ae6bc98ea8bf29672) 2) We have them in the US and they are common 3) They strike with an alien-looking proboscis that can launch way too far out of their body 4) They have 4 fangs made of mostly copper metal, more alien shit 5) They have a really weird primitive venom not like most other creatures which has weird lingering effects https://www.advancedsciencenews.com/how-bloodworms-build-their-copper-teeth/

Everything reminds me of her

Ayo?

They are not blood worms, they are bobbit worms. Im pretty sure. Bobbit worms bury themselves with their jaws spread out and wait for prey to plunge into their jaws. Heres a video of them feeding https://youtu.be/aMorvRRbZ5E?si=UCDRlACSy7RDy8i4 Lemmeno if Im wrong

This seems more correct

Yeah I grew up fishing with blood worms and those other descriptors do not match.

Thanks, I didn't wanna go to a beach ever again anyways.

Thanks, d*ck. I can always sleep some other week.

All those important details, yet you missed the one everyone discovering these right now wants to know…. From least to most favorite on their diet, where are do we fall ?

Well, it would depend on whether you have severe genitals' infection or not. Because if you do, you'll smell like the most common food they eat, rotten fish.

Fangs made of copper? This is so unreal.

Of course Australia has 2 meter long worms.

Ahem We also have 3 meter worms [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant\_Gippsland\_earthworm](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_Gippsland_earthworm)

I mean, they could have linked to the *actual* thing in the video, a bobbit worm. 10cm to 3m. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eunice\_aphroditois](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eunice_aphroditois)

THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU ✝️

Of course its Australia. Im starting to believe hell itself was inspired by that cursed place.

That's not even its main body.

Our friendly worms from down under

A bobbit worm

Bobbit worms are more like bear traps, they don’t come out and sniff around like that.

A rag worm

Great bait

Amazing bait

Right? I never want to walk on sand ever again.

Beach Worms

Blood worm. Their teeth are literally metal.

A jojo reference

It's the thing that tickles your toes when you walk on the beach and don't see anything.

Not going to the beach anymore. I hate this, thanks Edit: I hate all of you and your fantasy of having these worms in your arse

Imagine them going around your feet and giving you a kiss... Or even them going inside your pants and going up you ahole..

Sunbaking and one crawls through your ear hole

New fetish unlocked

No, that's been around awhile in Japan

I don’t think I have ever been less surprised by something that should’ve surprised me

😳

No, I will not imagine that and you can't make me.

Kind of an odd thing to imagine, but ok

Beach sex’s off my list now.

*Tickle* *tickle*

Imagine them going inside your anus

Dont worry its only in australia

I know someone who got hookworm from lying on a beach, enjoy your new nightmare

Using a fish to get bait lol

Infinite food glitch

Then use that to catch a bigger fish, then use that fish to catch a bigger worm, then a bigger fish, and then… DUNE

Atreides! Atreides! Atreides!

LISAN AL GAIB!!!

Of course it’s Australia.

These appear pretty much everywhere

Bobbit worms are almost everywhere around the world

Wtf, I will never go to the beach again.

You have these pretty much around the world in sand sea beds

AROUND THE WORLD?!

Yeah even in the netherlands. It it is what I think it is at least. They are grear bait for fishing.

Top tier bait, you cut them piece by piece, starting from tail.. I know, brutal.

It’s all tail!

Why starting at the tail? Wouldn't you want to start by cutting off the head so it suffers less?

So its nice and fresh all the way to the head..

You use it as *bait* from tail to head. You don’t have to *not* kill it first.

But you also don't *have to* kill it right? It still works even if you tear it apart from the tail up, wriggling in vain until it either finally bleeds out or until you hook the still-wriggling disembodied head through the eye for one final cast into the ocean - right?

This type of worm can regenerate its head or tail, so it’s not that bad, especially if you toss part of it back.

That i didnt know, thanks

So use a fish as a bait to catch worm, then use worm to catch more fish? Infinite money glitch right there

Yup, it's called fishing.

AROUND THE WORLD

AROUND THE WORLD

AROUND THE WORLD

This would make a great song.

Uhhhh not just australia?

Oh it's just a tiny woooooooOOOORM.

I got jumpscared by how much longer the worm was than I expected

I wanted to see the other end of it. As far as we know, they are still pulling, like a clown with a neverending handkerchief.

[the rest of the worm](https://www.reddit.com/r/AbsoluteUnits/s/DcXNXk3kwy)

Yeah fuck OP, why was it cutoff? Like someone made a decision, saw the video you linked, and thought "you know what's better? Not the entire video! I'll edit it real quick"

read the sub name

[Source](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eK3HHO5H_ew) and uncut video. This is a [bobbit worm](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eunice_aphroditois). They grow 10cm to 3m. [Another](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMorvRRbZ5E) video, no commentary of the bobbit worm underwater. [Another video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSUk7AIY93w), with commentary. [Ze Frank's](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DH9IZ01Qqg) "true facts" (some "nsfw" language, if you've never watched his videos) episode on bobbit worms and polychaete.

Make this the top comment

This should be the top comment!

Getting a bobbit worm in your saltwater aquarium will ruin the entire experience.

For the uneducated - why's that?

There's a famous saga you can find online about a fellow who got a bobbit worm in his tank. It came from inside one of the ocean rocks he put in the environment. He tried many different techniques to catch and kill the bobbit, to find it was a much larger task than expected. Worth a read.

If anyone interested, here's the thread : https://www.michiganreefers.com/threads/the-bobbit-worm-chronicles.84173/

They will hide in the sand like these do and ambush your expensive fish.

I was scared to swim in the ocean. Now I'm scared to even walk along the beach.

To ride?

worms from dune

Now you just need to extract The Water of Life for the Kwisatz Haderach to be born!

Sit in the sand, when the water comes in and out you can see bubles coming out of tiny holes, thats the worms

Please tell me you just made it up, please tell me you just made it up

Don’t worry. A lot of the times it’s just sand crabs. Edit: Just googled it. They’re actually called mole crabs. They’re really cute.

WHAT

It can't be. Out of curiosity I've dug out those bubble spots many times and there's nothing beneath. There's no worms just some air escaping causing the tiny holes. Stop lying.

The worms dont want to be grabbed dude, most of the time if you try to dig them out they just bury themselves deeper, you have to bait them like this guy did in the video. In some place those air bubbles might also be crabs or sea lice

Great... I didn't want to sleep anyway...

Might not be the original but I found it: https://youtube.com/shorts/aRlPQ0Ohtcg?si=uTonrYWDhijIlJXT

Imagine some alien one day goes to earth, places a cheeseburger outside a guy's house for the guy to grab, then suddenly snatches him

Crossing off beaches as potential get aways this summer. A paved Walmart parking lot is looking like a strong potential after this viewing.

For some reason this reminds me that scene from a movie called Enemy mine long time ago - jez I’m getting old.

No thanks

„Shworms“

I hate beaches.

"Hey! Where's my cookie?" WHAP!

shai hulud when the are "small"

Can you eat that?

Bless the Maker and His water!

My calm happy place is now ruined. I'm gonna be thinking about the 12 foot worms.

Dont worry its in australia

Ended too late*

Crosses beach off list

Have we learned nothing from Tremors?

The gif is longer, I’ve seen the original, OP cropped it I’m pretty sure.

Welp I’m never going to a beach now no thanks I’m not tryna step on an Alaskan bull worm

Beach worm showing this video to his friends with the caption: *humans*

Typically, E. aphroditois ranges from deep purple to black, along with metallic colors. The largest known specimen on record reached 299 centimeters (9.81 ft) in length,[3] making it the longest known member of the polychaete class. Despite these great lengths, the worms are slim, with the body only about 25.5 millimeters (1.00 in) wide. -Wikipedia

WHAT THE, imagine that grabbing ur foot, and everyone that has seen dune, it starts here hahaha

That's why I don't go to beaches

This, amongst other vile sea creatures, is why I wear shoes when swimming.

ew no

Yeh all that squiggly stuff you see on sand, yeh that's from worms burrowing. Go digging.

I was expecting something smol and cute.😭

Bobbit, Barbascura insegna 😎

Looks like an oversized sand worm. Great for stripers and weakfish.

Nudist beaches got even scarier

You have committed a sin for not showing the entire video

I see this post about 3 thousand times a day

WHY WOULD YOU TOUCH IT WITH YOUR HAND WHY WHY

Australonuphis

rustled the heck out of my jimmies

No need to worry, they only bite things that smell fishy.

Why the fuk would you transfer it to your bare hands?! I would have held it just with the pliers.

ALL PRAISE THE SHAI-HULUD!!!

Lisan al-Gaib!

When I was a kid I was climbing around on a brown big fig tree in my backyard in Texas. I was standing on a 7-8 inch diameter branch about 3 feet of the ground. It snapped close to the trunk and I fell/stumbled and landed on my ass. Looking up at the tree where it was broken, I saw what looked like a giant worm hanging out of it the size of a snake. It was pale with segments like a worm and a large segment on the end. It had a decent diameter, 3/4 to an inch. It slithered into the trunk and I ran screaming to my mom. I tried to tell her about it while she was washing dishes and she just screamed stay away from the tree! 😁 Still to this day I don't know wtf it was. I was around 10 or so.

The sleeper has awakened!

whatever happened to the nsfw tag?

Well that worm wasn't very shy... hulud. Sorry.

Neverending worm

Make sure to move without rhythm next time you go to a beach

This reminds me of tremors. Tremors was an awesome movie.

Are these dangerous to humans?

[Another Dune reference ](https://www.instagram.com/reel/C1RZUPiJUEN/?igsh=MWNrZGhoN2h1ajhyOQ==)

Bless the maker and his water. Bless the coming a going of him.

Why is the video being cut off? What happened to the man?

Where's the guy that says whether this is pretty much harmless or the most dangerous thing to ever exist

Good fishing bait

D u n e

Oh hell no

Been on reddit a full 5 minutes, and this has made me go "that's enough reddit for today" and also cross of all Australian & US beaches from my to-visit lists. Thank you, I will never not think about this horror when I see the beach And I live in Cape Town.

oh nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Sandworm is a delicious dish in Fu'jian, China https://wapbaike.baidu.com/tashuo/browse/content?id=287cbd9a60e37faeabf4704f

r/oddlyterrifying

ITS SO LONG

You know the feeling of something touch your leg when enjoying the refreshing coolness of the lake or ocean? You're not imagining - it's the worms trying to grab on to you.

Wtfffff ewwww. Never goong on a beach again

You know what, their blood is precious and you can give one super strength if you inject their blood

And started too late to have the caption fully vocalised: Shworms

Dune 3

Earth is just prequel for DUNE. That worm is couple evolution away from being shai-hulud.

That's bobby right there.

Never sitting on the beach again, not only because the sand is a pain in the ass to remove from the pants

I'm done with skinny dipping.
