10000 Mealworms VS Watermelon Strawberry and Bread - Time Lapse [4K]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 вер 2024
- This time I fed my mealworms some slices of watermelon, slices of bread and a couple of strawberries.
Strangely the worms finished the bread the fastest, and even though they started to eat the watermelon and the strawberries at a quick pace they eventually slowed down.
Some info about mealworms:
Mealworms are the larval form of the mealworm beetle, Tenebrio molitor, a species of darkling beetle. Like all holometabolic insects, they go through four life stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Larvae typically measure about 2.5 cm or more, whereas adults are generally between 1.25 and 1.8 cm in length.
Burrowing and eating are a top priority when it comes to being a mealworm, and they will eat just about anything. They will eat grains, vegetables, any organic material, fresh or decaying. This plays a huge role in the ecosystem. Mealworms aid in the decomposition of any spoiled organic material.

Mealworm fun fact:
Mealworms are not worms. They do look wormish, but they are insects. :)

Oh, and set the reminder so you won't miss the premiere, let's chat!

Minions
Imagine how terrifying mealworms would be if they actually ate this fast
They
*Consume*
dont worry some genetic engineer is working on a modified breed that will do the job and of course forever help humanity,
Ikr
@@world-uk2vj OH GOD NO! please don't tell me you're being serious. Ew yuckkk imagine they had that ability and ate humans as well ehhh
Those things from spongbob
I like how they started to pass the bread around lol
jesus: do this in remembrance of me
meal worms: hold my wine
Puff puff pass
they all want a piece lol
Mealworms: Ayo pass the food here
Just common courtesy!
3:11 they all just laying around hella fat thinking "damn that was good"
Lmao
😂comedy gold
Yo how you do that number thingy 🧐
@@mireelove8722 you just type a time stamp with the dots : like so 3:11
@@fiddlersgreen2790 ight bet 3:11
These videos just make me feel really happy for the worms, they seem to have a great time
The happiest worms in town, that's for sure
@@PhotoOwl especially the shot where they're chilling in the strawberry leaves haha :D
@@marias1609 oh they loved that :D
*he takes care of the worms to then feeds the worms to his other pets*
and then died right after
These guys aren't good at social distancing.
loool
If they could well... they would be flying in the air 6 inchs away from eachother and breaking the laws of pshics to teleport bread to there mouths.. same story with water melon.. and strawberry.
how much
At least the two slices of bread and strawberries were getting social distancing
Ikr
I feel bad for the mealworms that didn’t get any
Regular me: Why am I watching this?
Biologist me: Let's go.
What I've learned from this channel: Mealworms will eat ANYTHING
Including styrofoam, fun fact!
Bruh the guys on the wall said "AYE YO, pass that bread please!"
Haha the bread is like its at a concert throwing itself onto the crowd being passed around.
I don't mean to flex, but I'd devour those watermelon *pieces* within a minute, easy 👌🏼
Me would devour them within 20 seconds
The bread...it's like the grossest crowd surfing that I could ever imagine.
I want a VR game out of this
@@mimmi1225 dont.that’s gross.
@@mimmi1225 No
Ikr
yes we must torture you with the VR mealgame! buy it today only 1000$ such a good deal
This is what true decomposition looks like.
Thanks for watching, a new one is up, just now :)
Well, technically no. If left alone, organic matter turns into a kind of sludgy soup. At least, we do. We don’t turn to straighten up dust. And when fruit decomposes, it grows moldy, and in the case of watermelon, seems to turn into a sloppy watery mess. This video is what organisms that aid in decomposition do. 😊
There goes UA-cam again recommending me stuff I didn’t asked for, but im still gonna watch
And I'm happy it recommended it to you :D
Amazing video! Could you feed them a a jello cube. Something like 4" or even 6" cube. Large enough, so the cube stands above the mealworm 'pit'. It would be interesting to see how they consume it, and if any tunneling occurs.
Awesome idea, I'll do that
my mom had to stop letting us bring mealworms home from school because i kept leaving the containers slightly open and they’d escape lol we kept finding the adult beetles just chilling out around the house
Why was your school giving you mealworms lol
@@kelseykay8618 to study the life cycle or something lol i don’t really remember the reason haha 😂
@@kelseykay8618 For lunch, obviously, they're called mealworms for a reason.
@@bleflar9183 haha thank you for making me laugh today it actually means a lot
@@rainbowshivlers12 our school made us dissect cow eyeballs and mummify fish so I guess it makes sense lol
So I’m guessing u r going to throw them into the deep fryer as a little midnight snack
Is it weird that I got hungry when I saw this comment
@@reee-wu1wc yup
@@reee-wu1wc I think you need help.
Some people eat bugs so I guess your not weird
@@reee-wu1wc protein
Lol it sometimes looks like the meal worms are jumping around to get a bite during the timelapse
They are weird creatures
May sound gross but the little worms peeking up through from the bottom of the bread was so cute 😂
One thing that I have always wondered is what these things turn into if you let them grow up! I know that they are the larvae of some type of insect but I have never actually seen the adults.
Darkling beetles. Small black non-shiny and skinny.
exactly
I can imagine someone questioning why in my search history they see where to buy 10,000 mealworms
Why is this so oddly satisfying
Also I wanna see them eat a muffin if you'd feed them one-
New sub btw!
I just uploaded a new mealworms video, can you please let me know what you think of it? I'm sorry, I didn't film a muffin this time, but now I added it to my list for the next video :) Thank you for subbing, it means a lot!
@@PhotoOwl The average virgin Pewdiepie fan vs the average chad Photo Owl Time Lapse enjoyer
Never thought I'd see a crowdsurfing piece of bread
I just imagine the minecraft eating sound x10000
All I see are a bunch of the homies raving to smooth jazz
1:50 im surprised he didnt notice he had a rare black mealworm. theres like a 1/500,000 chance for it to be a different color. very rare. also i just made that up but it definitely did catch my eye, i thought it was like a beetle or something at first.
that is called a dead mealworm
He even has many of them!
If we had gigantic foods like this there'll be no more hunger
I'm curious if it would be efficient to keep and feed mealworms as a renewable food source for a reptile like pet.
I’ve done it, Then My pet died
My heart after he touches those bread pieces
Me watching it in 2x speed :
"My goals are far beyond ur understanding"
Did anyone else notice that a number of them died while eating?
This takes mealworm cinema to an artform. Beautifully crafted bit of cinema with enjoyable music and thoughtful closeups.
Thank you! I just uploaded the new one, in case you'd like to watch it :)
They were a lot more excited about the bread than the strawberries. How do they react to protein?
Worms may seem ugly but so cute when I zoom in. As appearance of people may seems ugly but zoom in to their heart. Perhaps beautiful.
Wow that bread got decimated once enough mealworms realised it's there.
The dedication this person take to count each individual meal worm before recording so they have exactly 10000 is amazing.
Awesome footage! It's interesting, how they carry the stuff around
Thanks! Yeah, they carried the strawberries out of focus several times when I was shooting macro ... :D
@@PhotoOwl Hahaha XD
If these critters were Pokémon, their power would be their ability to easily eat any food that is plant-based!
They can digest Styrofoam into biodegradable components.
Meat? Yes.
Grain? Yes.
Plastic? Yes.
They look very polite I suggest treating them to a mango :D
That's a good idea!
This must be called "Buffet for mealworms"Just opened.
I disappeared for a little, but now I am back for meal worms and they perform in spades. This is exciting
I'm trying to show some new content :)
Now I feel these warms walking all over my skin
Man those watermelon scraps at the end looked revolting. Was that caused by the worms or is watermelon always gonna look like that after it's been sitting out for a day and a half?
I'm pretty sure watermelon is gonna look revolting after a day and a half no matter where you leave it :D
Mealworms aren’t at all like fly maggots that leave gross residue all over everything. Food can rot very quickly especially when there’s a lot of moisture and not enough ventilation.
Finally an experiment with animals where the subjects are in a situation as beneficial for humans as for animals.!
The strawberries just melted away into a sea of worms, don't how I feel about that I'll get back to you all once I've figured it out
This is one of those rare moments when zooming up on a bug actually makes it look cuter
After watching all your videos, I started to think if everyone was able to eat what you're feeding them. Would you mind asking them one by one?
So this is how spongebob lost his pineapple house
This is a random story, the other day on Thanksgiving I ate some old cereal that was at the bottom of the cabinet and it was pretty dark in the room. I didn't know until after I finished all the cereal, I saw three floating in the milk, that there were meal worms in my cereal.
What happened after that huh
I just went about my day, however I did try to get every piece of cereal out of my mouth when I found out just to make sure it wasnt part of a worm.
@@cenyarn Lmaoooo baahahahah
Mealworms are such cool critters. Back in middle school we learned they can learn to navigate mazes for treats.
I cant even imagine the smell of this...
Try to make a time lapse of you lied down with them
👀
We had these in primary school and they turned into little beetles lol
Suggestion: 24/7 Live Stream of the Mealworms eating something so we can watch in real time during the process until the meal worms completely finish whatever they are munching on.
Sounds like you're a pretty positive man because I saw something replies to comments!
Thanks, I try to reply to every comment
Imagine if they really ate that fast in that speed and place your hand to see how long it will last?
Great video as always mate!
Thanks a ton!
Interesting.. can we use machine learning / big data analysis to track each worm and check if they all eat an equal amount?
Rip bread watermelon and strawberry :(
Don't feel too sorry for them :) I just uploaded a new mealworms video, let me know what you think of it
I didn't know watching a guy put his hands on a tank full of MEALWORMS could be so relaxing
Its 2 AM and i'm watching it
Yeah that's awesome
Best time to watch some mealworm videos :D BTW I just uploaded a new one, please let me know what you think of it
Your worms must be happy to have such a nice person to feed them.
Damn! Lol. Love your vids 👍
I guess even mealworms hate the rind of a melon 😂
The worms here really hungry they are thank you for the food but you can't understand their language 😁 keep up the good work always blessings 🙏
All they do is eating :D Thanks!!
@@PhotoOwl yes I know eat and sleep 😂🤣
1:02 thats what you call crowd surfing
1:25 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
I don’t know why but it’s so satisfying watching these worms devour the stuff.
*Me watching this at 144p
My eyes: let's burnout
Competitive eaters : We are the fastest eaters in the world 😋
Maggot : are you sure about that 🤨😝
When the worms started to eat the bread and then a few secs later I was like: “is that dirt?” And now I’m like: “clearly not.”
I can't tell you how gross yet satisfying this is to watch
I absolutely hate worms but you managed to make me think they’re cute and thats a huge accomplishment
I just imagined a situation if a person is locked in a room filled with these
Mealworms are pretty weird, but very cute in a way I can't explain 💞
Thank you! 😊
They make for good eating as well
would it be possible to do this with tapeworms?
The last time I heard the word Mealworms was 15 years ago when I fed them to my Firebelly toads along with some crickets. Ah, good times... And then when they passed away, my mom flushed them down the toilet ;-;
My friend Harry and I are gonna open our own pet store. "I got worms." Were gonna specialize in selling worm farms
1:12 this dude really done touch the worms
yeah why not :) btw smooth editing of your comment lol
I love how every worm gets a turn.
The dislikes are from the food that got eaten and the mealworms that didn’t get to eat
mealworm atop the left breadboat after it sinks : i was once chillin
1:30 AM stumbled upon this randomly and find it very helpful in making me sleepy..
That's awesome :)
I've just discovered your channel and I must say. Your videos a absolutely fascinating. Completely different from anything I've seen before. I thoroughly enjoy them. Thank you for introducing me to a disgusting but at the same time, beautiful part of youtube
comments like this make me cringe so hard my face turns into a fist
@@scapingby that's funny because I make yer maw "cringe so hard" over my face when i use my first
Are the worms dead or full after eating the watermelon
Fun fact: interestingly, in indonesian, this worm is called "hongkong worm" and then called "japanese ant" when they reached the adult / became beetles
I love how the mealworms take the bread to a corner and slowly drown it in the sea of mealworms lol
This takes finish your food to a whole new level
Watermelon: Yeah im pretty sure ill surviv-
Mealworms: *s h u t u p*
LoL
Where do you get all of these mealworms and what do you do with them?
Did your mealworms got sick after eating/being around the rotten watermelon? Just curious.
Not really
Top tip to everyone watching these videos, you can put on any music you like as your own backing track if you want to. I watched this to 'Turn down for what' and it goes toghether incredibly well.
The ones who climb on top at first get to go on a ride around the tank while the rest of the worms move it around
my brother: how to make bread car?
me: 0:17 not moving 0:40 Now moving!
Damn, even mealworms don't eat their crusts.
SEE MOM?!?!
you would have to PAY me to put my hand without gloves in that container
If the worms were people they'd be on Family By The Ton
It's all fun and games until they form into a giant bipedal worm monster and start wearing armor
