Plants in 2012

[chipaputalaguea]

[Amichannnnn]

It looks like they're dancing. :) This is beautifullll.

[annonimuz2]

[enkopingsbo]

looks like hands trying to grasp the sun

[noxtradamentus]

they were all dancing celebrating life! cool.

[allenda77]

I absolutely love it when you see plants following the light :)

[Siegerzkranz]

Ch-ch-ch-ch-chia!

[ZhaoPao]

The ents are marching.

[CoG888]

They are alive! Vegans need to stop eating these precious creatures!

[Zaharkl]

imagine if plants moved like this real time

[roberoom]

now do a time lapse of how long it takes a bunny to eat through that.

[1245312453]

wow

Veri nice

[MultiTheBest88]

chi chi chi chiaaaa

[DeadForestWalk]

"The sun... the sun..."

[thegreatMSG]

Looks like thay really likr to grow Towards the light.. :)

[Sharp0000009]

did you know that plants lean towards the light? well, here's your proof!

[riaminal]

i swear they lean from one side to another for a reason, like for sunlight or something?

[MBandKS]

they were dancing to the song i was listening to while i watched this xD

[griekenlandisdebeste]

they turnining all the time to the sun

[urusaiyatsu]

I thought a bright classical song playing softly will match it quite nicely.

[urusaiyatsu]

Hehehehe so cute!! They look like they're listening in on conversations.

[ChessiaTrick]

oh wow it is like a little forest :)

[spokesdude]

ITS ALIVE!!!

[realisticHomeboy]

You immediately notice how they follow the sunlight.

[seuquin]

Looks more like alfafa sprouts. But looks delicious anyway.



[PublicLibraryx]

They are alive so im not surprised they moved like that....

[TheOopsPrankers]

its alive !

[dedicatedanimefan]

even plants dream of becoming ballerinas. lol!

[jordanpophits]

around 1:00 it looks like the seaweed under water o.o

[CBBPhoenix]

Do the wave! :D Lol I'll think twice before eating that again !

[gunnarlarson23]

no i like this video better without a song. thank you "mnolf" for not putting a song in because it distracts the whole point of the story. every time i watch time lapse, i turn down the volume because i want to understand what the person was thinking when he saw the scene and what he/she is trying to tell us

[MrSlompo]

rsrsrs... quando o sol aparece eles ficam doidinhos.

[LadyBluemantle]

Am I the only one creeped out by this? They look like squirmy worms. It will make me think twice about eating sprouts.

[ManofArts]

@LadyBluemantle No, I got creeped too...

[ManofArts]

...And the plant's thoughts drifted. It, vaguely aware of the hyperexistant organisms instantaniously flashing past, wished it too, can think and move as fast as them. These creatures, sometimes -in-a-flash-, pulled his cousins out of the very life source. Stories were past that these teleporting creatures built huge machines that murdered millions faster than the sprout of a leaf! against these super-beings... what was there to do but grow toward the light?

[Alexaflohr]

They are alive. xXxREDSOXxXx. i have the same question as skarlbiog.

[xXxREDSOXxXx]

looks like their alive, with them mooving towards the ligh :D

[howlerkos]

Oh but they are alive. o3o

[leoelmosca]

[PoisoningOrchid]

they are alive, they just dont have feelings, thoughts and flesh like mammals and other. :)

[bananatree94]

@xXxREDSOXxXx lol they are alive....

[theamazingplant2]

@xXxREDSOXxXx uhhhhh, they ARE alive. so are all plants. thats kind of how they, you know, LIVE!

[sandsandyou]

[KazakstanTube]

Dont You Use A video Camera?

[Xlay16]

[MidnightPsychoKiller]

[FusionNinjin]

@MidnightPsychoKiller yea it looks pretty cool :)

[maxhendrixboxer]

Fantastic, not too keen on the jumps though

[supersandslash]

looks tasty :)

[6cobby9]

I love how they lean towards the sun during the day, and lean toward the lamp at night but not as much as the sun because its a weaker light source

[d4mi3nBr0th4]

it looks freaky

[darkshadows106]

THEY'RE ALIVE!!

[AskMeWhyNot]

[p1x3lman]

it would be better with a nice relaxing song was in this vid... like air or acoustic guitar

[solboard]

Makes you almost think they have a fragment of consciousness

[darion777]

they all grow towards the light, all living things have the will to keep living

[Fe0n]

the cress is fighting for the light ^^

[MNZ2007]

the middle part is the best, like a bowl of worms

[violaplayer1987]

This is beautiful

[anthonytaurus]

[KungFu17]

it's eerie when plants move like animals

[adsensus]

lol, ya, im glad plants dont move that fast in real time.

[Grunts4Life]

Ents,walkin trees and shit!

[allyressler123]

Incredible, if ever I needed an example that a plant was alive and moving, this would be what I would use.

[Cress123]

[hannahsaysHI]

[chunli111]

thats well cool, but didnt u water it? or does cress not need to be watered? anyway so i guess u musta fast forwarded the film to like ths rite, i meen reely reely reely fast forwarded rite? lol

[Shintoga]

It's not fast-forwarded; in time-lapse filming you record a frame every few minutes, it's not being filmed every single second :) I have no idea about the watering needs of cress, however.

[bffmkslnbff]

after they were a lil bit green it looked like little green people working on a farm lol cool vid

[dancingqueenn]

That was cool! =D But it made me dizy. lmao

[Knivexafe]

amazing isn't it? now i truly know that plant really reach for the light

[Daznboi625]

Little Arms trying to get some light..

[S70T5]

they plants follow the direction of the light. like during sunrise and set

[MarkHarmer]

Great fun! I used to work in sound effects, and I imagined crowd noises, cheering and booing, as the cress moved around. It almost seems to behave like a human crowd.

[almogz]

amazing ! no words!

[golden4th]

Wonderful, the video really shows what life is. This vivid pulsation in the cress we would expect from animals but not from plants.

[BluBrace]

amazing

[Babdinho]

ye that was funny when they all leaned towards the light kinda competing who gets the most light

[ehack87]

that is crazy

[Tinnguyen123]

we need to do that but with a teenage kid or something to see how he grow.. and look after a period of time..

[fr3d420]

this was an excellent time lapse film... you know... ive always said this... ever since i was little.... they need to make a tv channel, completely dedicated to time lapse filmography.

[MisterVitus]

whats cress

[secretdubai]

Wow - that is quite freaky, the way they seem like alien tentacles waving around and suddenly reaching en-masse for the light. Amazing video, thanks for posting it.

[thedailyenglishshow]

Very cool.

[marvinmartian123456]

as boring as watching grass grow

[ztarwarz]

killer

[wat3rm3lon]

that looks kind of gross. cool though XD

[ImmortalGrandPriX]

this is cool and artistic.

[saintal]

I love how the plants reach for the sunlight. Very cool.

[SmokingLlamaCC]

how lame is this you guys spend your time filming plants

lol

[dabinduppes]

great example of phototropism.

kudos

[gmaternal]

it's alive!

[psydoll]

yeap, some music...

[mrmrmanhuman]

when will you be making ''cress death''? That would be cool. Woohooo!!

[mnolf]

in fact, i did :)

http://markus nolf org/gallery.php?s=218&highligh­t=1853,1854

[LisaSimpson2]

Cool video, very interesting. If you added some music to accompany it though it would be even better. I love the way the seedlings always lean towards the source of light.

[mnolf]

yes, it's lacking music.

i didn't have the proper utility back then...

[LunariusMoon]

aww they're so cute trying to get to the sun

[fr00t]

lmao its fake boys its playdough

[AlandIv]

that's the most fun we've had watching plants grow in... well... FOREVER!

[hidenfire]

this show that that plants are living

[jimbo571]

I thought that plants are dead yet they continue to grow because of magical powers from space creatures. But your explanation sounds good too.

[hidenfire]

lol (i just had to say lol)

[veronapc]

You schould put some music on! g

[ChristopherNoel]

Wild and amazing! For fans of time-lapse, check out "Tuesdays wtih Felix": a year in the life of a baby.

[fluessi]

yeah. they turn to the light :D

[johnaast]

this made my skin crawl... luked awful

[d3aces]

Wonderful !!!

[peterbone]

It's good but it would be better with an artificial ultra violet light source instead of natural lighting.

[06aiden]

pooberry "Wow. Mesmerizing. It almost looks like they're alive. What are you gonna eat now, vegetarians?!? " LOL i know wot you mean :P but they ARE live... To me it looks like a crowed of people... and i love how they all sway taword the sunlight.. Funny.

[SephirothRaiku]

This video make my skin crawl it was awesome. The Photosynthesis was so awesome, it was almost like they plants were living, so sweet!

[mnolf]

yes, plants ARE living creatures...

btw: 10 comments within 10 hours -  where does all that popularity come from suddenly?

[SephirothRaiku]

x.x; I know that it just made me sound stupid. I meant it in the sense like they were...like, REALLY alive, like partying and stuff.

[GHRiz]

The front page has a time lapse balloon thing featured. Your time lapse comes up in the related box. Traffic by association. :)

[MikeDubose]

Yep. That's how I got here hehe

[tallt66]

Imagine that, living plants :|

[emoomggosh]

Someone should do a Mjwana plant growing that would be so much cooler

[Arcual]
