Fun fact all the mayflys you see here are dead R.I.P
Very much true
So sad
All of them only live for 24 hours :(
So sad 😞😥😞😟
@Fearless Troop Another grammar wizard huh? Honestly can you guys just stop.
Mayfly 1: "alright i'm done breeding, see you tomorrow"
Mayfly 2: "yeah see y- hold up"

If you're a believer in reincarnations, Mayflies are the waiting lobby before you respawn.

Mayfly represent me when playing battle royale, I die as soon as I hit the ground

@@Gentle_Spirit777 AYOO?!?!??
They live less than a day as soon as they emerge out of the water. BUT, they can live up to 2 years as nymphs under water.
Thanks for including that extremely pertinent fact that answers a question I was hoping THEY would answer.
So they live 2 years and up to a few days
they spend a year awaiting birth but females only last a few minutes while males can last 2 days
Why not just stay a nymph then🤔😂
@@tylerhammmond they can't be like this (nymph)cuz they should reproduce inorder to live their species on earth so they must transform into mayfly
At this moments, I should thank God that I still life right now.
@Fearless Troop whatever
@Fearless Troop why u so pressed....not everyone’s first language is English
@Fearless Troop lmfaooo
Yes brother we should all be happy we still life and not be die
@Fearless Troop theyre lifing it's a verb, "I'm going to life today."
“and the pairs mate in mid air”
truly love is in the air HAHA
Mayfly after born: dream's speedrunning music start playing

They’re speedrunning life
1:30
Mayfly: I HAVE ONLY NOW REACHED MY FINAL FORM PREPARE TO FACE ME
Duck: *cronch*
Male Mayfly: in case if you forgotten, here’s how things work. I fly to you, I f*ck with you, and you lay the eggs. We do that for four minutes and then we die!
>spawns into world
>bangs other mayflies
>refuses to elaborate further

This is the most beautiful thing ive watched..what short but sweet life span..thank you bbc
2:32
Male: You like that baby?
Female: YES, JUST DONT DROP ME.
Also female: Whatever, I'm gonna die in the next 15 mintues anyway
See these all the time. I usually see lots just motionlessly perched on the patio walls. A few months ago I actually managed to see mayfly nymphs inside a water bowl outside :) they swim like fish and it’s so fascinating to watch
Don't focusing on their last day, because they spent up to 2 years in they're larval form.
So, is a long life for an insect. Those fascinating little animals are very important for the environment, because the chain feeding. And they're also living indicators of quality of the water, they are so delicate and a little amount of pollution is mortal for them.
Sorry for my english, hope you understand. :)
You are absolutely correct! And your English is very good.
Mayflies: THIS ISNT EVEN MY FINAL FORM
But it is.. ;-;
So basically this bug was created solely for the purpose of being food for other species. That drive to mate just keeps them coming back each year to keep the food chain successful. Brilliant idea!
No, no, and no.
@august west I don't mate like that so I guess so 😉
Yeap.. i guess you would have done a better job? At creation. Enjoy the moment 🙏🙏
@august west tf you mad at him for?
Well they keep the water clean?

Everyday, a mayfly dies.
Everyday an uncountable amount of organisms die
@@MichaelMyers66793 everyday trillions of organisims die
@@Acousticmf123 probably more
Every second bruhh
Imagine knowing that you’ll only get 24 hours to live and then dying in the first 5 minutes
They are like tiny fairies.... so cute.
Wtf woman ??
The cycle of life: So beautiful, facinating, but still somewhat sad
Bruh a pair of those did the dirty on my window. Smh.
Lmao
*no one*
*absolutly no one*
God: Lets create some animals whos only purpose in life is to horribly starve to death!
Satan: Whoa mate, how 'bout some nice demons instead?
God: ... and they shall have sex before their demisse!

Also Satan: *Trying to get people to burn for all of eternity*
I don't understand why mayflies supposedly have the shortest lifespan when in fact they live in water after they hatch for up to 2 years. That's pretty long for a bug to live.
Shortest lifespan as adults
Like a mayfly, maybe the aliens will say that human just live for 100years, the shortest life for human..
One of the many pleasures of fly fishing on a river is witnessing the mayfly hatch
Live every day like it’s your last. Oh wait, it is.
So that’s what Paul is
Mayflies are awesome. Every fly angler adores them. Beautiful photography also!
Actually I knew about mayfly from "my girlfriend is an alien"👽
There was one sittin on my curtain… never seen it before here in switzerland. Such beautiful creatures wth
Kinda nice tho. Living peacefully eating in the mirky darkness then enjoying a trip to the heavens and finding love and banging midair. Kinda neat. Might get eaten early by a fish tho so that balances things out lol
I'm here not for a long time, but a good time.
What happens if we perform surgery on a mayfly and give it food? Mega evolution into flygon?
that only works on lobaster I think, I heard that they can’t “die”
This is the closest thing we have to fairies
**Cleans river by feeding on Algae**
Fēw sêcönds lâtër
**Makes it dirty again by shedding it's skin**
🤦♂️
One day of life. What would you do?
Play pacman
Have sex in midair, duh
I’d kill myself before the day ends to prove you wrong
Now I know why they are called "may"flies
Wth why do they fuse their moufs shut in its final form
i think its left behind with anything else that can make them too heavy to fly.
@@lintfreecloth ah I see
Evolution: "...I'm sure I forgot something..."
i come here to know 'what is mayfly' after saw red and mayfly from larva cartoon
How tf did these things survive billions of years of evolution
Maybe mayflies are water type, also they might supposed to be flying at water I think lol
So that's how Teresa May came tobe
That's Paul 💯.
Amazing feature and narration
kesini gara2 larva 😄
So sad 😢
Im here because of Larva cartoons
Same! I wanted to know about them......
@@genesisordonez7938 lol funny how curious we are
We live at a lake so it’s pretty bad the first few days of the week 🤣
Nearly every evening I have these land all over my car, they come from no where, land and then go again. Very annoying when I’m trying to wash the car. 😂
@Fearless Troop stfu if you don't know."these" is plural and after a plural you don't add another.
@Fearless Troop lmao butthurt over a grammar mistake

Subhanallah ❤️
Struggling to not die as a virgin be like
So many shots I’m just like how long did they have to weight, how’d they get the camera so close without a reaction from the wildlife. I need a bts on wildlife docs they’re shit so cool.
bruh I hate the big shows the close ups give me shivers
Love is in the air lmao
Life Speedrun
They are all over my door and I found one in my bathroom. I was scared when saw them.
Incredible and short.
Me: No just short.
Imagine you lived a very poor and short life, then reincarnated as a mayfly.
They could probably go extinct so easily
they were so close!!!!!! all they had to do is lay them eggs!!! let them lay them eggs first man! after that you can eat them
I work as a boat painter on the Kennet and Avon canal, I started my business in May last year. I’m also born in May, it’s my favourite month naturally for this reason but also for the arrival of spring. It’s lovely being greeted by the Mayflies again this year, they’re so fleeting and it reminds me of how special it is to live in the moment. I get plenty of Mayflies on the boats when I’m working, and I’m extra cautious to try to make sure the ones that linger avoid the paint as I’m working. It’s unfortunate for some though but I try my best. ❤
Oh hey its paul
This is so sad lol
Watching this, can't help but think. With such a short lifespan, why were they created? To clean the riverbed? To be food for other animals? If that's the case, then the Mayflies are more purposeful than us humans. Think about that.
Yoooo it’s paul
These bugs really just did a real life speed run
It’s the end of October in Illinois and they are literally everywhere! I can’t open the door without 2 or 3 flying in! I figured they would’ve died by now because of the cold weather but I guess it’ll take a while longer.
Not anymore lol
Chill as a kid underwater. Fly, bang, and die. What a life.
Its paul
Anyone else from Paul the mayfly
Yes
Top 10 saddest animu moments...
It's that bug that's living in that one guys eco jar on TikTok
I'm here cause of McDonalds.
U guys think mayflies feel pressure time??? Honest question 😅
This is kind of cruel but….. what’s the point of living that short of a life lol?
i would just stay in the water.
life up there is dangerous and my only purpose would be to mate.
"You may get killed in the process but you have to do what needs ti be done"
Hey someone tell me what this Chanel is on 😏😏😏
Mayflies are the only creatures that can speedrun midlife crisis
The nymph stage is one year why it is the shortest lifespan
Big Bang theory! All this is possible by accident 🤔😂🤣
They are the life speedrunners. Change my mind.
They live for two years in the water before developing wings and flying off the water. So, their life cycle is pretty long for an insect.
@@mp6471You are absolutely correct!
1:37 same
I’m busy today, but will that important thing tomorrow
Nature is beautiful
I wonder how many people came here from fly fishing 😅
They also terrorize humans at Cedar Point.
Who else comes from larva animation from kids?
I still hate the things but this video was pretty nice
My Girlfriend is an Alien brought me here
It’s crazy how their life so short and they STILL have to attract a mate. In my opinion they should just be mating and the time.
Evolution did them dirty, no mouth??? Wtf
I collect them at work and line them up on the wall.
What's the point of this??
It's not a Paul issa Mayfly
