  • what the hell are they doing?

  • @kevinjamesn omg yes I totally agree

  • Super Creey, but I guess it's pretty cool you got this! They don't do this all the time!

  • That was just creepy. I've never been fond of caterpillars.

  • I didnt know caterpillars could do that

  • Caterpillars has to be alive.

  • weird

  • now thats a really strange behavious!

  • That gave me chills.. :(

  • I had to have my friend come and stop the video, I freaked out so bad!

  • ARGH I FEEL SO ITCHYY

  • is it just me or do these caterpllars have wings...?

  • i have a major phobia of caterpillars and i had a panic attack today when i saw so many above my head. i absolutely h8 them and now i am trying to watch this vid to see if i can rid myself of the fear....not working lol

  • Those aren't caterpillars those are sawfly larva. They're related to bees and wasps and the larva feed on conifers.

  • thats really sketchy .

    i h8 big catepillars lol

    its kinda funny tho why do they do that

    if i was walkin pas tthat hedge and they jumped out like that i wud scream & run a mile :)

  • SPITFIRES!

  • ew thats freakin` gross i hate caterpillars !

  • Woah, wat da hell. That was weird. Looked like it would be sumthin on a Sci-Fi movie.

  • Haha that's funny, notice that they don't twitch at the same time, just one of them first gives the signal.

  • Huh? That's pretty interesting.

  • That was ...different.

    EEEEEEEEEEKK!!!

  • These are either caterpillars or Sawfly larvae. Amazing!

  • OMFG THAT'S SO SCARY.

  • OMG! are they really moving by themselves?! did any of them popped out? What the heck were you doing there?!

  • Amazing

  • ..omg..D:

  • Thank you az1az1 - I think that must be what they are.

  • "The Yellow-necked Caterpillar tends to feed in groups with every caterpillar twitching at the same time when the group is disturbed."

  • "This is a defensive measure to prevent parasitism by various wasps and flies."

  • what make the Bugs??? Dancing?

  • those are bugs?? wow what a whole bunch!!

  • " if one worm thinks they see a fly or a wasp, they twitch, the others seeing the twitch, twitch themselves to avoid having eggs layed inside them"

    What my biologist friend's guess was.

  • omg like when the caterpillers like jumped i waz like my heart skiped.

  • see, WWII wasn't the only reason the flamethrower was invented, it was to keep these tree eating pests away too..

  • Hah! I kept staring at it all mesmorised. It went too fast for me, my small brain couldn't take it in ^^

    They look like little spikes coming from the tree about to kill you! I can imagine how that must have looked to foreigners passing by hehe.

  • The poor... poor tree... lol If i was a tree and I had that on one of my arms, I'd like explode =P

  • nature is a horror film

  • That's beautiful.

  • That is soo cool!!!!Most girls don´t seem to like bugs,but I really do XD!

  • ok if i saw that i woulda thought the tree was like, exploding and ran for my life

  • HAHAHAHA, I cant look away! Caterpillars are pretty spiffy if you ask me.

  • Ugh, -pukes all over the keyboard and starts scrubbing myself-

  • ewwwwww

  • OMG its like their listening to iTunes and movin to the beat ROFL

  • It is in fast motion. You can tell.

  • omg that's soo creepy

  • I've had a way bigger mass of caterpillars on a bush in my front yard. It looked like the frickin bush was moving and alive, it was insane.

  • why do they spaz out like that

    it looked like you put it in fast motion at different intervals or something

  • THat reminds me of this tree near my house. All these catipillers will gather around in a circle in the middle of the trunk for days at a time.

  • ok... that was freaky... Where they watching a catterpillar football match and doing a wave of something?

  • lol =D

  • ewww

  • what the carp just happned?

  • EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. THAT IS WEIRD.

  • Thats bizzare!

  • ya, the puss caterpillar video is way weirder, i looked up the thing online and the one in the video looks similar, but scarier

  • They are real caterpillars. I think they do this when they hear noise.

  • cooooolllllllllll :D

  • This is connected to the reason that humans

    all YAWN at the same time.

  • wierd...

  • ewww.. cool but kinda freaky and gross.

  • ZOOMG that twitching thing was gross.

  • For some unknown reason, that was kind of gross.

  • fake or wot

  • yo wer is da caterpillars

  • hmm, racist inuendo's aside...that's pretty cool!

  • That was pretty cool. I think it's interesting, because it shows that some creatures have even developed a sense of synchronation and beat.

  • i hope to see a video of bottlecap jellyfish mating online sometime. saw it once on tv.  circles of 10 gather into rings of ten circles, they all spin, the circles and the rings, upon panning back, there are lots of rings, all making a larger spinning thing... and there are 50 layers neatly stacked 1 foot apart underneath doing the same thing. AMAZING.

  • EWWW

    D;

    It gave me chills.

    @___@

  • Ok, I love caterpillers, but THAT was gross. XD

  • ew Dx

  • that was wierd

    *can't stop laughing for some reason*

  • 00..........icky and cool

  • i dont like the way they move ;_;

  • dude that's nuts.

  • O.o freaky...

  • Dude... that reminded me of the demon in the beginning of princess mononoke. except they're worms jumping out from a branch, not a giant bore... If u've seen the movie u know wut i mean

  • how cute...i want to subscribe to ur videos

  • Ew! Why do they move like that?

  • So thats what caterpillar group sex looks like.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v­=LfxAfgToV7A

  • ewwwwwwwwwww...i would've ran soooooo fast...

  • Huh... that's their only natural defense mechanism. They conjugate onto a branch to blend in with the texture of the plant, and simoultaneously convulse to intentioanlly freak out predators. Best way to give someone a heart attack.

  • yesh i know i would have screamed and ran...then came back with a stick and poked em.

  • that is so weird...

    friggin spazzoids.

  • Hrmm... I'm oddly turned on now.

    Should've put some music on.. Made them dance to the beat >_>

  • O_o what the? i would have ran thats just nasty

  • I would have ran from that shit thats fukin weird they could be doin some weird sci-fi type shit!!

  • Weird.... it looks as though they're trying to camoflage with the pine needles.

  • spray then with hummus(from date movie)

    they'll go away!

  • 0_0..........

  • and you feeel it rocking through your booones, and you JERK IT OUT!

  • oh the wonders of nature!! ^o^

  • interesting... o_o

  • are they mating?

  • eww.

  • wtf that twitching is so creepy

  • that's gross...

  • I had the same experience with caterpillars on a small evergreen shrub outside my front door earlier this summer - appeared to be about 300 or so caterpillars on several branches of the shrub. Creeped me out, but was totally fascinating at the same time.

  • from the windowssssssss to the wallsssss! lol

  • thats... creepy o.Ø

    Omg my skin is getting all wierd... KIIIIILL THEEEEEM AAALL!

    or touch them and theire gonna eat all the flesh of you'r hand xD

  • it only takes one of the catepillars to move to move the rest, must be a group warning sort of stimuli, something to ward off animals that get the yeebi jeebies, such as humans who watch youtube

  • eww

  • why are they movig like that? :( thats horrible

  • Eww! Why are they...pulsing?

  • how come they all moved at the same time?

  • eugh!!! i'm gonna have nightmares >_<

  • I'm completely astounded. That same exact thing happens in my front yard every spring. The worms are crazy....i usually just bust out the w-d 40 flame thrower, gets the job done.

  • That's fucking scary.

  • crrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeepy

  • wth are they doing?

  • That is absolutely DISTURBING.

  • ya you know, with some tomatoe sauce? Yeah? eh? Nah

  • i would eat them in some tomato soup. yum

  • bug spray?? get some WD40 and a lighter and torch those fuckers

  • Those aren't caterpillars, that's the tree.

  • I've never seen them do that before. They're lucky a bird wasn't around to slurp them up like pasta.

  • Imagine walking through the woods and right into that.

  • spazzing ..

  • "Spray that summabitch with some bug spray!"

    L M F A O

    thats what i was thinkin

  • God, gross! That is fast 4 a caterpillar...

  • Spray that summabitch with some bug spray!

  • cweepy

  • EWWWWWWWWW...ME NO LIKY.....LOL

  • that's just WEIRD...o_O maybe they're reacting to electrical fields or something?

  • whoa yeah why are they doing htat?

  • Wow. They're acting in unison, like the arms of a sea anemone. Interesting.

  • eeeewwwwwwwww that is gross
