There have been a lot of inspirational quotes at the beginning of a TED-Ed video. This one may just be the best. It's incredibly groundbreaking, and it just made me look at the world in an entirely new way
My granddaddy taught us how to do this as a small boy. He always called it grubbing. Any time we wanted to fish, we went out to the yard, drove a wood stake into the ground and rubbed a brick over it until they came up. I’ve never seen or heard anyone else doing this, so when I saw this video title, I had to see if my hunch was right. Thanks for bringing back memories of my granddaddy and my youth.
During cross country practice we (~30 people) used to have to essentially run in place as part of a workout. So all of us would be in a big group stomping on the ground for a few minutes, and I remember looking down to see like dozens of worms in the dirt at my feet. Lol it was so strange but pretty cool at the same time and I'm glad have found this video years later.
@Max Powers Why do you hate it? You have a wonderful ability to imagine how a person feels it's called Empathy. 🥰🥰 Love yourself more. You are s beautiful soul - start saying it to yourself everyday when you wake up, geniunely look for reasons/logic to love yourself. Don't miss an opportunity to love yourself, not praising or admiring yourself too much - that will lead to arrogance and narcissism.
The animation of the gull and wood turtle doing a stompy dance was exactly what my day needed. Also gonna go grab a pitch fork and see if I can rustle up a special snack for my flock of birbs
We used to carve notches in one stick that had a sharpened tip. Drive that stick into the ground and then use a second stick to rub up and down the length of the first. It works best in places with good soil, near trees that had fallen leaves and such. I did this several summers for a part time job as a kid, selling the worms to local bait shops
Learned that nature would prefer "works most of the time" rather than "works rarely" is kinda "I didn't realize that", so thats why humans near the sea didn't evolve merfolk like features.
8 billion people on the planet , someone else is worm hunting at this very moment once you actually get/have this notion in your head , that there's 8 billion of us , coincidence is just totally out of the question , it's just ignorance of the amount of things that Can happen and will things happen , We make the connections , that's all it is
I'm curious if worms in a place where there's no moles also have this behavior. I'm not sure if there are moles here in the Philippines since I haven't ever seen any of them once in my life, or if there's any other worm predators similar to moles here.
Something else might fill the same niche as a mole and illicit the same response. If not its unlikely. There might be a different noise that will cause something like this depending on what eats the worms.
@@jordantucker9799 Frank Herbert might not have known about this when he wrote the book, and worm charming could have been inspiration. I don’t know, but it’s a cool similarity.
Frank Herbert spent years researching and world building the ecosystem of Dune, so I wouldn't be surprised if he spent some of that time looking into worm behavior.
Pretty cool stuff! One thing that that bugs me a little is the connotation that every adaptation in evolution is purely overall beneficial. Or heck, are beneficial at all. The question "Why do worms still have this feature," or why does any other species still have something is, to put simply, because they aren't extinct yet. It's like asking someone why they left the lights on. "Well I didn't turn them off" is the only totally honest answer. You can say you forgot, but when the analogy goes back to evolution, you have to remember that there is no thought behind it. There is no mind saying "Shoot, I forgot to remove that feature" even though it doesn't work anymore. In fact this type of thing happens all the time. They're called vestigial structures. For example, whales still grow finger bones and hind legs, but are never used. The rare vs common predator is a good reason for explaining why they aren't extinct yet *because of this feature. But it does not explain why they have this feature in the first place or why they still have it. To put into other words, let's say for example that moles all disappeared one day and the amount that other animals exploited this feature went way up. Way up to the point where these worms are in danger of extinction. Now you can then ask "Why do worms still have this feature" and the only honest answer is that they or the feature hasn't gone away yet. And one or the other eventually will in this scenario. But nothing has really changed. The worms of course didn't, and the structure of evolution didn't change, so neither does the question. I'm very much not narking this one video. It is actually really interesting stuff! I just notice this kind of thinking about evolution is super common. To think that everything happens for a reason, often an environmental one. I mean, a lot of things do happen for environmental reasons, but it's not why things don't happen.
Same here, I guess in Holland this is common knowledge... maybe because we have lots of canals, and worms are perfect for fishing. I always did this trick with a shovel, stick it in and out of the ground real fast. Tapping it is new to me though...
Oh yes. My ex-husband use to purchase worms on the rear times he decided to go fishing. I never understood this because all he had to do was flip the dirt anywhere in our yard and there would be an abundance of worms! The soil was extremely soft and rich so it wasn't like he had to dig for long. But he never did.
People buy worms because it saves lot of time. It's same with wheat. Why u dont just farm your own wheat and make it flour and then make your own bread?
@@qxqp that's just analogy thing. If u have money, u tend to buy stuff to save time. Fishermen also be like that. Not just worms. It's also about fish n crab for bait. Some of them just buy it from the bait store or something.
@@DBT1007 Are you really comparing digging up worms (15 minutes) with becoming a farmer and growing wheat and grinding it into flour just to bake bread? Do you also argue that guns don't kill people, people kill people?
Can you make a video about how the worms conquered the world? Because it's weird that they exist on islands in the middle of the sea. Someone did not put those here on purpose then run away😹
Most likely the worms ancestors moved around when the Earth was still in it's Pangea form and then once land broke away, each worm populations evolved seperately to what we have today.
Its because humans spread them, earthworms aren't even native to North America. Trade ships would take on dirt which contained earthworms as ballast and dump it in various places.
3:45 Adaptations aren’t maintained because they’re beneficial. They are passed down because they’re beneficial hence increasing the likelihood they are passed down
If you take dish soap and water and mix a good amount in a bucket and dump it in a spot where you would already find a few, like under a large rock or something, you can get like over 20 under the tight conditions to come up all at once. It's not as effectas this but it's a nice little experiment, especially if your kid was like me and liked digging around in the backyard. My dad showed me this and it blew my mind when big giant worms came up out of the ground rather than the little ones I would just find every once in a while
Not very nice to the worms, given that they breathe through their skin. Covering them in dish soap and water would likely lead to them suffering and probably dying. Better to find other, harm free ways of summoning them.
