This is the chillest explanation of a tapeworm I've ever heard

[defwawn]

Why'd he make this sound so wholesome.

This worm absorbs nutrients straight from your intestines *ding* ☺️

[AllanGuiHaya]

Oh and also they can get as big as 11 meters :)
(That's 36 feet to you americans)

I WAS EATING A BURGER WHILST WATCHING THIS

[danielbernal]

Fun fact: in some places in mexico, they can sell you meat with or without this worm (the one with the worm is cheaper)

[Tomik_CZ]

At this point im expecting this guy to tell us about micro bugs that turn you into a zombie in the calmest voice ever

[hamzaomar]

Bro told me some devastating stuff in the most soothing way possible. I’m too relaxed to feel fear😭

[raffausfaus]

Are you sure that’s not a fish that lives inside a cow… are you sure that’s a cow? I think that’s a fish

[.Elliott.Draws.]

Dudeee i was already paranoid from a spider that was on my face i don't need to thing about worms in my organs

[octocreeper]

Dont worry guys, the parasite can play piano

[Chryser]

Not in France tho, you can eat fresh raw cow meat safely. On the contrary raw pork is out of the question (usually cause of the tapeworm).

[yukinagato]

Kinda wrong, as far as I know (or maybe I'm the wrong one, but well).

The tapeworm shown is Taenia solium, which is a pork tapeworm, not a cow one. And, it doesn't live in the stomach. It lives in the intestines (as actually shown in the video). However, it uses the stomach acids to dissolve the outer membrane of its cyst, allowing it to develop into a worm in the intestines.

[muhammadshais]

Correction: It's Taenia solium that can infect you by taking undercooked pork, not beef. Beef tape worms or T. Sahinata don't have that rostellum of hooks.

[starstrudel]

So fascinating.. it's actually quite an evolutionary marvel if you think about it. I love the chimes and gentle messaging. Yes it's grotesque, but he explains a way to avoid it and in the end a tapeworm is just another animal.

[MarielWhalley]

The fact that he said as if it's normal and not a parasite....

[christopherholder]

People who have weight loss problems will sometimes intentionally ingest a tapeworm in order to lose weight!!! Unless you are in danger of death from being overweight I would not recommend it!!!!

[rustyshackleford]

Tapeworms live in your intestines, not your stomach. He said so correctly at the end, but the title and beginning are incorrect.
