Hey there! I am sorry if I gave you existential crisis with this video. It made me cry when I was recording it, the way it dissolves was really shocking but I thought It could give some people the awareness of the tiny life around us. Thank you for watching! instagram.com/jam_and_germs/
I've never felt this much empathy for an animal no bigger than a strand of my own hair. How it clings to life, desperately reforming the leaks in itself while it scurries around in panic, with pieces of itself STILL hanging out of it, only for its body to just give up and collapse. absolutely heartbreaking
If I had to guess, I think the boundaries were maintained by three things: the surface tension of the cytoplasm, the cytoskeleton proteins that help shape the cytoplasm, and the polarized nature of the cell membrane's phospholipid bilayer causes the newly exposed ones to reestablish equilibrium by rearranging into a structure where their positively charged tails can avoid the water molecules and the negatively charged heads can remain exposed to water.
@@komali2 lmao, here's your gold medal 🥇 Although, if we're being pedantic about it, it was a large group of atoms. A nuclear bomb is an uncontrolled chain reaction.

It also was not an atom randomly deciding what it’s plan for the day was, it was a large and quite heavy apparatus that all functioned for the same purpose.

@@onagain2796 Yes this is true. HOWEVER, you are also a deterministic finite automata, are you not? The only difference is you have more memory in your program. It opens up the question of, where should you draw the line, and should you even draw a line at all, or should you just come to the conclusion that no one and nothing's life matters at all.
It’s kind of harrowing how that paramecium literally just lost small chunks of itself while it’s still swimming around aimlessly struggling to life then out of nowhere it just suddenly explodes and turns completely lifeless.
Can you imagine if people bleeding out just slowly shed entire chunks of flesh and then continued to scream in agony as they wait to just explode into sludge? I’m just saying I’m glad I’m not a microbe lol
@@fcpolat2559 it's mentioned in the description that it belongs to the blephasma genus. But both paramecium and blephasma are ciliate protists so they do look similar.
I find it fascinating that the cell are able to mend the leaks that quickly, though it's probably a matter of perspective as for that organism these series of breakdowns takes forever.
I think everyone feels more emotion toward it because of the little “legs” frantically moving around, making it more like an animal we’d have a connection to
It makes you sort of feel as though the organism is afraid, but seeing as it’s unicellular it’s most definitely not capable of experiencing any kind of emotion whatsoever. This was just what it was designed to do; it’s what we’re all designed to do.
@@idontcareaboutyouropinion8999 I'm not sure about them not being afraid. I remember I was looking up some microorganism videos for a project, and I came across one where an amoeba was eating a smaller microorganism and the smaller organism was BUGGING OUT. I remember being very disturbed by it and how it kept fighting to get out of the amoeba's grasp. Also, just wanted to say this since we're on the subject: Amoeba's ain't ish! Everytime I see or hear about them they're starting trouble. Eating up people's brains, swallowing up other organisms. They're just menaces!
@@matxalenc8410 well, duh... Of course a single cell organism is not gonna sit there and wait to be eaten, i'm pretty sure it's got receptors that activate some kind of response to being chased by another single cell organism trying to consume it, but don't mistake that for fear or something like that, they don't have a consciousness, they don't have feelings, they're not like us. They're more like a car, a group of components that produce and receive proteins and fuel, causing chemical reactions that produce movements.

@@romancultist6089 maybe you missed it all it was floating around like it had plenty of life to live and then out of no where all of sudden just stops and dies and then dissolve away
One cell remembered by 9 million creatures, each with trillions of cells, meaning over three hundred thirty-four quintillion and eight hundred quadrillion cells made up the amount of cells in the creatures watching this. holy cow that was hard to say

Thanks for uploading this. Fascinating to watch. Also fascinating to see everyone's reactions. I assume the organism is wiggling like that pretty much all the time and isn't actually fleeing it's death. I had similar feelings but I suppose it is human nature to empathize with things we can relate with and/or anthropomorphize.
maybe. As far as I know some single-celled organisms can change their pace according to the environment - I don't think it would be surprising if the dying cell felt "uncomfortable" and tried moving away, so in a sense trying to flee it's death.
I know those are just the movements it makes, regardless of how it is doing, but I can't help but feel like it's thrashing around in panic like it's trying to stave off the inevitable.
If you ever feel like humans are jerks, just remember 10 million people watched this and I guarantee over 50% felt bad for the little guy. (I did. *goodnight, sweet prince. No more tears; only dreams)*
This tiny creature doesn't even _know_ it's dying: it has no brain, no nervous system, no self-awareness; there's no way it can feel pain, anguish or regret. And yet, it's so sad to watch its final moments.
It looked as though the microbe basically threw up its entire innards. Life starts by bringing parts of the environment into itself and it ends turning inside out.
Holy cow, poor little thing just fell apart! Thanks to you for filming this, and thanks to it for giving its life in such a timely manner, and thanks to God for quardinating.
From how atoms interact, to how them makes organisms, to how organisms adapt and evolve. It's too complex, too perfect, to have come into existence randomly, it's like saying a fully functioning computer can come into existence randomly, it's impossible. Life is like organic machines, but who made it ? A higher life form obviously, but what is it exactly ? We may never know. Science is the understanding, Religion can lead to the right path, when humanity understand everything, those two will combine into simply the Truth
Adasdasda Asadasda Focusing on who made our existence is too simple minded. you are thinking too inside the box. Okay let us say we were made by a higher power, now a question must be raised “where did this power come from?” And if this higher power doesn’t believe there is higher power above him.. well then that’s no better than if humans said there wasn’t any higher power. That we humans came about through chaotic chance! If you don’t believe in a higher power, one must ask “well then how the heck did we come to be?” And on the other side of the fence, no matter how many higher powers beyond our creators there is, there HAS TO BE a random chaotic event that resulted in the birth of intelligent design somewhere along the way.
This thing, in one moment, was a living thriving being which held the miracle of life, and then in the next moment it became as lifeless as a pile of pebbles. Fascinating
@@AreGeeBee No they did not lol, any evidence? When's the last time an airplane made itself? Or a phone, a car etc... you need consciousness and intelligence to create something..
I remember being in science class looking at a bunch of these guys under a microscope when the air conditioner turned on and for some reason caused all of them to explode at once. It was surprisingly horrifying.
A strange feeling came over me. I just met this strange little thing, knowing it would die soon, and I still felt bad watching it do it’s best to cling to its final moments of life. Did it experience pain, did it have any sense of self awareness? All those questions hit me within this 2 minute window.
Isn't it possible for it to feel things in a different way? Maybe not everything has to have a nervous system to feel. If that's so, then I believe we are jumping to conclusions too fast.@@elementgermanium
@lowgpu1687 I get your point, but that is pure imagination. Completely natural, of course, as it's an evolved human behaviour to question things Ultimately: no. Based on everything we have verifiably observed about our world, there is simply no way for this organism to 'feel'. To imagine 'feeling' without any mechanism by which to convert an input into a signal, and without anything to decode and interpret that signal, is impossible. It would be like listening without a means to perceive soundwaves, there just isn't anything about these organisms which allows for that kind of thing to happen What's cool though is that, despite how different we are, we're distant cousins to that little cell. In a very real way, it's family, and part of our interconnected biological world
@@lowgpu1687 Not in any meaningful sense, no. Is it “possible” that there’s an invisible, intangible, inaudible unicorn standing in my room as I type this? Technically, but not in a meaningful way. Same here. A single-celled organism doesn’t have a brain. Whether you believe in an immaterial form of consciousness (a “soul”) or not, the brain is vital to cognition- either as the source of consciousness outright or the interface by which it senses and interacts with the world. (Personally, I think “souls” are nonsense, but just covering my bases here.) Even if single-celled organisms had “souls” and thus a form of consciousness, they’d be cut off from any ability to gather or process information about the outside world. They’d be in a permanent state of total sensory deprivation, so death would be a mercy. Either way- there’s no physical pain.
@@druiden2496 And that's the problem, isn't it? You don't think homelessness is "that bad", so you don't have enough empathy to try to help. Someone has to literally die for you to care.
To think that we, as in ourselves, are a collection of trillions of these little dudes all going about thier business keeping us alive and who we are. Quite beautiful really.
Seeing it scurry around then suddenly just stop and essentially dissolve was kinda heartbreaking, it looked like it was ready to chug along forever then just poof it dissolved ;-;
@@iralol3771 It's true...It's happening countless millions of times, inside and outside of your body. Continuously!!! MOSTLY for the good of your health.
@@koichikamimura9723 True we are made of trillions of cells yet considered one organism but microbiota that live in a relationship with our bodies are organisms.
Humam Slayer No, there are different types of cells. In this case, it was a unicellular organism. A single cell that performs all of the functions of life. But as I said there are different cells for instance, the cells that compose our body are multicellular organism.
Just remember that this crap gives you horrible diseases. In fact diseases only exist because of crap like this. So next time you're ill, you'll be glad when it all falls apart I was actually intrigued how it continued to survive after half its organs were already out. And how there was a "line of death" that it eventually crossed, after which it was impossible to stay alive or to put humpty dumpty back together again
@@marioluigi9599 actually no, bacteria is, on average, not bad for humans, especially this kind, many of the most well known and the worst diseases are caused by viruses, such as HIV, SARS, Spanish flu, COVID, and smallpox, which couldn’t be any more unrelated to bacteria.
From form to formlessness, dissolving and becoming part of the whole. I can’t help but cry watching it flee from the inevitable when so many of us spend our days rushing toward it.
Cells are cute.. But thank God for them otherwise we couldn't really exist. They're like pebbles that are apart of the cement mix that will become the foundation of a house.
I really never expected this to be so unsettling, you could see after the first disintegration of part of the the cell wall and membrane it almost looked like it was trying to run away. It was just so disturbing to see it just, stop existing..
death is such a disturbing thing bro... like, in a moment you're alive, breathing and all, and then, just in a second, you're not anymore ;_; and then stops existing... man i just got an existential crisis :D
@@sherryquartzuniverse yes and we dont know whats after is there really a god or not and why did i live (Im giving the next ppl who read this an existential crisis)
That's us. Constantly running. The ego is running. Maybe it was being embodied by emptiness. Physicists will tell you we don't really exist. This is the dream we're in. That little single cell wanted to be separate until it was merged back with God. It just looks scary. 😉🙏
0:41 I find it fascinating how it rcovered for a moment and the membrane closed by itself. You see the contrast of the membrane coming back. And then a few moments later life suddenly stops.
I don't think the membrane came back or recovered. I think we saw the creature at a different depth/angle which showed another, more intact version, of the membrane. The anabolic process is slower and that membrane came back too quickly to be a 'recovery'. The videographer was shifting the lens focal depth throughout, trying to capture the best one for the clearest picture.
I think it lost too much blood or whatever it is the first time. An infusion would have helped. Probably couldn't find its blood type quickly enough. RIP
3 years later this invisible-to-the-naked-eye single-celled organism has been able to cognitively/emotionally impact millions of people! Proves that even the smallest of us can achieve great things...
Not to be “that guy” but they achieved that by dying, and it never had a choice to impact anyone anyways, it’s the person who recorded the cell’s death who did so, then again, you can believe what you want to believe
@@Golgari213 yeah but to be fair his books were of fiction, and while I cannot say much about what his books were about since I never read them, didn’t a great wizard help the main character defeat the villain?
We met him, were intrigued by him, felt sorry for his struggle, started rooting for him, felt his pain, were devastated by his departure, will miss him dearly, will love him forever. All of that in under 2 minutes
Ever really thought about the fact that everything in all of history has died, but you're still here right now with so much potential for so many different things? But one day, maybe in 100 years, or maybe only a minute from now, you will face your final moment like this organism and just be a part of history.
@@fastshot5485 it can't think, but you can see the cell knows something wrong and is trying to fix the problem, all it can do is flail around and it does so faster throughout the video until it dies. it can't feel or think, but it is noticably reacting to stress from its environment
@@karmadoesmore1644 Or the "weight reduction" threw off it's weight distribution and lowered weight and drag slowly throughout the video that it got faster and faster and wasn't as stable? Or maybe they just slowly increasingly want to experience going fast as hell until one day they can't stand it anymore and take off, knowing damn well that at those speeds it will have chunks torn off and be able to go faster and faster until it blows apart completely...and they find that speed to be worth ceasing to exist.
Life is, at its most fundamental aspect, a chemical reaction. Atoms exchange electrons and energy. When the reagents run out, and all the atoms reach equilibrium energy, the reaction stops. Entropy comes for us all in the end.
This video shows not only how Eldritch some life is (e.g. it just straight up loses cohesion and dumps its bits everywhere and suddenly it's completely immotile), but also how strongly humans pack bond with just about anything (illustrated by the comments section).
It gets even stupid when you notice how most of these wouldn't show as much empathy to people around them. Humans just romanticize the idea of connection and empathy instead of actually empathising. It almost makes you feel bad if you didn't feel empathy for this creature. I almost thought to myself if it's abnormal to not feel anything emotional for this except fascination.
@Saloni Sharma The fact that the vast majority of us put up with each other without killing each other is pretty indicative of empathy I think but that’s just me 😂
UA-cam: Where we can watch things die, but we can't swear™ Edit: So some people aren't getting the joke *cough* Human Resources *cough* so to clarify; You can swear you just get demonitized on videos.
You can fucking swear on fucking UA-cam! I do all the fucking time! You can watch cock fights too. The videos are taken down days after they’re put up but there are so many so often you can watch rooster scrap matches for hours.
Your video description made me sigh with relief, I initially assumed you were dissolving the organism on purpose and it bothered me more than I expected. I really appreciate your respectful approach to all life
Here we are watching this organism, and feeling some kind of sadness when it passed. This little guy could never fathom that a species known as humans, is watching him. Is there a species watching us, in which we’ll never be able to fathom that they even exist?
@@Tolbat Whatever begins to exist has a cause. The universe (all space, time, and matter) began to exist. Therefore: the universe has a cause. This cause is necessarily spaceless, timeless, and immaterial. Some people call him/it God.
Imagine being a human and your forgotten about but this single celled organism who has no comprehension of what the internet is or anything else gets remembered by millions
The thumbnail warned that watching this would make me feel uneasy. At first I underestimated that and thought there is no way I would feel bad for a single cell organism. But watching it die, and look like as if it was scared and in pain made me sad :(

From how atoms interact, to how them makes organisms, to how organisms adapt and evolve. It's too complex, too perfect, to have come into existence randomly, it's like saying a fully functioning computer can come into existence randomly, it's impossible. Life is like organic machines, but who made it ? A higher life form obviously, but what is it exactly ? We may never know.
Science is the understanding, Religion can lead to the right path, when humanity understand everything, those two will combine into simply the Truth
Adasdasda Asadasda Focusing on who made our existence is too simple minded. you are thinking too inside the box. Okay let us say we were made by a higher power, now a question must be raised “where did this power come from?”
And if this higher power doesn’t believe there is higher power above him.. well then that’s no better than if humans said there wasn’t any higher power. That we humans came about through chaotic chance!
If you don’t believe in a higher power, one must ask “well then how the heck did we come to be?” And on the other side of the fence, no matter how many higher powers beyond our creators there is, there HAS TO BE a random chaotic event that resulted in the birth of intelligent design somewhere along the way.

@lowgpu1687 I get your point, but that is pure imagination. Completely natural, of course, as it's an evolved human behaviour to question things
Ultimately: no. Based on everything we have verifiably observed about our world, there is simply no way for this organism to 'feel'. To imagine 'feeling' without any mechanism by which to convert an input into a signal, and without anything to decode and interpret that signal, is impossible. It would be like listening without a means to perceive soundwaves, there just isn't anything about these organisms which allows for that kind of thing to happen
What's cool though is that, despite how different we are, we're distant cousins to that little cell. In a very real way, it's family, and part of our interconnected biological world
@@lowgpu1687 Not in any meaningful sense, no.
Is it “possible” that there’s an invisible, intangible, inaudible unicorn standing in my room as I type this? Technically, but not in a meaningful way.
Same here. A single-celled organism doesn’t have a brain. Whether you believe in an immaterial form of consciousness (a “soul”) or not, the brain is vital to cognition- either as the source of consciousness outright or the interface by which it senses and interacts with the world. (Personally, I think “souls” are nonsense, but just covering my bases here.)
Even if single-celled organisms had “souls” and thus a form of consciousness, they’d be cut off from any ability to gather or process information about the outside world. They’d be in a permanent state of total sensory deprivation, so death would be a mercy. Either way- there’s no physical pain.

It's like a sick person getting better and then dying.
I don't think the membrane came back or recovered. I think we saw the creature at a different depth/angle which showed another, more intact version, of the membrane. The anabolic process is slower and that membrane came back too quickly to be a 'recovery'. The videographer was shifting the lens focal depth throughout, trying to capture the best one for the clearest picture.
I think it lost too much blood or whatever it is the first time. An infusion would have helped. Probably couldn't find its blood type quickly enough. RIP
