How Dune's Fremen Get OFF Sandworms, The Real Answer

It's not a mystery. We already know. Author Frank Herbert gave a detailed explanation on how they do it. So it doesn't matter that sandriders getting off sandworms it isn't shown in Dune: Part Two. Here's how Fremen dismount their sandworms.

The hooks don't irritate the worm. The hooks pry open parts of the worm that are sensitive to sand. It's the sand that irritates the worm, which is why the worm rotates upward, to reduce the amount of sand that touches its body.

[@GiantFreakinRobot]

That’s why the hooks irritate the worm… they let in sand.

​@@GiantFreakinRobot Well, then sand irritates the worm, not the...wait...something sounds familiar...

[@varunmadhavan3227]

It is also what keeps them from diving under the sand..

@@teekay9886is this a gun control joke because if so that’s fkn genius.

[@SuperKripke]

This begs more questions like do they retrieve their thumpers before they ride? Also, how many worms or thumpers to get to South Arrakis? And finally, how do you get cargo like the carriage of the reverend mother onto a worm in the first place?

[@GiantFreakinRobot]

Thumpers are disposable. The worms eat them, I’m pretty sure!

[@FelipeKana1]

Why would you think they need to retrieve the thumpers?
Also, the sandworm Paul rode was much bigger than the regular ones they use later for mas travel. Probably much easier to board them.

[@SuperKripke]

@@FelipeKana1 Considering that they would never give up their tears even for the dead, I imagined they were pretty miserly with thumpers too.

[@ReinhardtX57]

the theory is pretty simple...
someone who is already riding the worm, just turn the worm and pick them up with rope in a circle motion.
or everyone just wait at the top of a dune and the worm just crash into the dune and every thing ontop of the dune falls onto the worm

[@bigcuppagirl2286]

@@ReinhardtX57😂 me imagining this happening

[@saturn5312]

dude if the worm is sinking into the sand, the sand behaves like quick sand that even the rider will sink into the sand, you are talking like as if the the ground was concrete

[@GiantFreakinRobot]

That’s why they get off before it goes under.

[@saturn5312]

@@GiantFreakinRobot gosh di d u even see the movie correctly? even though the sandworms are far apart the sand starts sinking in, and u think the riders can get off the sandworm just beside it??

[@Kanoog]

..... Some people lack logic, but it's okay.

[@bigcuppagirl2286]

I mean it looked difficult for Paul to get on, and his teacher who said “just as I taught you” I’m assuming he did it and they all do it the same way. So how does everyone else get on? They’re not going slowly. How do kids get on?! And the “last on, first off” theory doesn’t explain how they get on or off without incident or how they get the paladin and very pregnant rev mother on…I still have questions after watching this

[@GiantFreakinRobot]

Same way Paul got on. Jump.

[@bugra320]

​@@GiantFreakinRobotEven Paul barely managed to land succesfully on worm. I think it is impossible for a pregnant woman to do same kind of trick

[@NerdyMystic09]

​@@bugra320 to be fair, it was his first time, and the Reverend Mother was in some capsule thing, so I'm assuming a few fremen just picked that up and jumped at the same time.

[@zosterinski]

And how do they put those eclosures for the vips, like Pauls mother on the worm…?

[@GiantFreakinRobot]

Totally different question! Another video perhaps

[@ChrisOnStage2]

How do they do it? Frank Herbert: "They just do it" There. Answer solved!

[@wye43]

You didn't answer the question.

[@blueshit199]

but he did?

[@GiantFreakinRobot]

I’m not sure how that doesn’t answer it. Pretty cut and dry!

[@py8554]

You think so perhaps because you stopped watching the video before the 00:30 mark

[@blueshit199]

I kept wondering about it because worm travel was pretty big part of part 2, why Vileneuve thought it wouldn't be relevant to show it, I don't get it

[@GiantFreakinRobot]

Not so much not relevant but just not needed. It’s not very exciting, not like getting on, so it wouldn’t be all that fun to watch either

[@blueshit199]

@@GiantFreakinRobot i was still wondering because vilneuve's dune shows sandworms as some sort of force of nature more than just living beings, I imagine jumping off of them would get people stuck in quicksand they create, or pulled down under after them and crushed, or something

[@FelipeKana1]

​@@blueshit199 Frank Herbert already explained in the books. The rider makes the worm do a curve, and people getting out slide to the side in the tangential. After everyone is safe, the rider makes the same thing for him/herself and jumps out

[@rambosx6699]

@@FelipeKana1 Then why is denis saying "I know how to do it" is he going to modify frank's way of getting off a sandworm or going to use the same method?

[@bigcuppagirl2286]

Me either. How do they get everyone on to the work? How do they get the paladin for the Reverend mother on to it?! It’s going by so fast!

[@alianejeromelapasaran9224]

I'm searching on how they ride the sandworms together as a group. Got me thinkin'

[@GiantFreakinRobot]

The group just jumps on as it goes past

Horses are a bit smaller
