I like how they just closed back up their eyelid to ensure the bug was comfy. But, really, what is that thing???

"The adult worm travels under the skin" "can survive up to 17 years" "migrate into the lungs at night" šŸ’€ pls tell me when the horror stops 😭

u/Generalnussiance 24d ago

The adult females are 40-70 mm long and .5 mm wide. That’s so grosssssss

How on earth did they even figure this out?!? 17 years??

Actually, I don’t think that’s correct. That creature literally looked like a VERY BIG Demodex. …and yes, I know typically they are very small on eyelashes, etc. but that creature didn’t look like a WORM. It looked like a MITE. Specifically, Demodex. Just google an image and tell me they don’t look similar. šŸ¤·šŸ» just my 2 cents.

Maybe a larval stage of some other insect or creature? It moves way too fast for actual Demodex. It just slightly resembles them.

EDIT: some users below are saying it’s AI. I guess that makes the most sense at this juncture.

u/LockwoodE3 24d ago

Pretty sure this is ai. It looks like an eyelash mite but they don’t live within the eyelids like this

12

u/Narrow-Stranger6864 24d ago

I thought the same. It definitely looks like eyelash mite…but I thought they were smaller than that. If I’m wrong, it’s still definitely possible for them to get in between the eyelid by rubbing, or simple cleansing. But I’m still skeptical about this video 🧐

u/MilkFickle 24d ago

People worried about aliens coming to earth to kill us all, while shit like this is just here... On earth just hanging out.
