These are mealworms, and they're known for their ability to eat almost anything.

But what if you put 10,000 mealworms on a whole watermelon?

How quickly would they completely eat it and turn it to mush despite its massive size?

Yeah, I don't know, so that's why I bought 10,000 mealworms.

Yeah, this is the most nastiest thing I've ever done, but it'll also be one of the most satisfying things I'll ever do on the channel.

Okay, well, I got the watermelons right here, but I actually first just kind of want to put this

piece of bread in here to see how quickly these mealworms will start to devour it.

So yeah, I put the bread inside and as you could probably imagine, the mealworms wasted no time to start swarming this thing and of course, they then started to consume it.

If you pay attention to right here in specific, you can see how they just devour a massive hole right through the center of the bread.

If they're doing this to the tiny piece of bread, imagine what they do to the full watermelon.

Anyways, literally after only four hours this bread was hollowed out with mealworms

and just had holes all over it

but this is literally nothing compared to the other time lapses

i'll be showing off in the video i have tons of

stuff planned ending with the final 10 000 mealworms versus the whole watermelon

but don't think the stuff before is boring

because we're gonna be starting with leeches yup you heard

that right for the first time lapse i'll be recording i went

and bought five big leeches yep leeches usually live in the wild

and grab onto unsuspecting prey to basically just suck the blood

out of them well since i have five of these leeches

and they're in captivity it's gonna allow me to get some

insane time lapse footage of them sucking the life out of

a food object as the leeches get bigger it should be pretty cool now

if you watch my video about keeping pet leeches you'd know

they basically like to spend all their time under the water

so that's why i'll be setting up an aquarium for this test

and then quickly i'm just gonna fill up this tank with this

so i can go ahead and put the leeches inside so we can get this test started.

So yeah, I put each of these five leashes inside and I put a lid on top so they didn't escape.

And immediately you can kind of just see how they all just start swimming around under the water, just sort of like how snakes do.

Yeah, it's kind of weird, honestly, but once they want to stop swimming, they'll go up to the glass and just grab onto it using the end of their bodies basically as a suction cup.

It's actually pretty cool.

Anyways, for the food I'll be feeding these guys, it's this piece of beef liver.

Well, all right, why don't we just drop this slimy nastiness into here

and see how long it takes for these leeches to get absolutely massive.

And so step one was to actually get the leeches to bite onto this piece of meat, which is pretty easy.

You basically just pick up the piece of meat with tweezers

and start bringing it up to the leeches' faces until they grab onto it.

So yeah, I just went around and picked up all the leeches onto the meats.

But if you couldn't tell, the water quality got super bad because of the beef liver.

So I decided to actually let the leeches eat the beef

liver out of the water since in the wild that's actually how they prefer to feast

and while a couple of the leeches kind of detached from the piece of meat

and started to run away three of the leeches actually did stay on it

so i could watch as they started to eat you can literally see them contract their throats in

and out as they basically use their teeth to grind the meat up

and then they suck it up like a smoothie up into their bodies

but things actually did not go to plan

because out of nowhere this leech decided to detach from the piece of meat

and then he just started to slither away randomly then the other two leeches decided to detach too

and this guy decided to just burrow into the piece of meat

and this one just slithered away hey at least you got to watch him eat for a little bit

but this is why i love time lapses you just capture random interesting stuff like this

but even these leeches are nowhere near as interesting as the time lapse coming up later

because the time lapses get cooler as the video progresses

so that's why for our second time lapse

so we're gonna be recording flesh eating beetles yes you heard

that right flesh eating beetles and and they're called that because they're beetles that eat flesh.

And well, let me show you why that is so cool.

Now, as you can see, there's some actual flesh-eating beetles in here, but most of the things in here are still in their larva stage, which means they're actually even more hungry than usual.

And you see, these insects are cool

because they can literally just eat the flesh off of animals to the point where they only leave the skeleton bones behind.

So yeah, I'm going to try and record a time-lapse of that.

And I've got thousands of flesh-eating beetles in here to the point, if I put my finger in there, it would probably turn into a skeleton.

Actually, you know what?

I wonder what would happen if I put a piece of dog food in there.

Hey, I guess let me get a quick time lapse real quick.

So I put the dog food in and oh guys, all I'll say is things are about to get interesting with these beetles.

But as you could probably imagine, buying all these crazy bugs and worms is extremely expensive and I've been needing to manage a lot of money.

So that's why I'm glad today's sponsor is Chime.

If you didn't know, Chime is the number one most loved banking app that millions of Americans, including me, use to help people bank smarter and have their money work harder.

But specifically, Chime was wanting me to tell you guys about their high-yield saving accounts, which I'm going to be honest is easily my favorite feature about them,

because they offer up to a whopping 3.5% APY on your savings, which is over 8 times higher than the national average of 0.4%.

To put that into numbers, that's an extra $310 you'd earn with Chime if you had $10,000 in savings.

Yep, so you remember how expensive I was saying all those mealworms were?

By literally just having my money saved in my Chime high-yield saving account, so my money grows for itself, and those worms will essentially just end up paying for themselves.

Thanks, Chime.

But don't think Chime is just a saving account.

Like I said, it's an entire banking app that has so much more to offer.

Thankfully, there's no monthly fees, and they won't charge you if you accidentally overdraft up to $200.

And on top of that, you can get paid up to two days early.

It's super easy to sign up, and the best part is right now they're offering up to a $350 bonus with a new Chime account using my link.

So if you guys aren't already using Chime, either scan the QR code that's been on the screen, or check out my top link in the description for a smarter, simpler way to manage your money.

Anyways, let's get back to the flesh-eating beetles.

And if you were wondering, it didn't take them very long for them to start swarming this piece of dog food.

You see, these are dog treats that I buy for my dog Jet, and they're made out of the top quality real beef ingredients, which of course Jet loves.

But that also explains why these flesh-eating beetle larvae were also loving it.

Anyways, it was pretty crazy how after just a few of these beetles latched onto the dog food, Pretty much all of the beetles soon followed behind until literally

this piece of dog food was literally like just not a piece of dog food anymore.

This is just a living piece of flesh eating beetle at this point.

Yeah, there's just so many on here.

Oh my gosh, bro.

What?

These guys are so hungry.

So yeah, I shook them all off because if you remember, the main reason I got these beetles is

because I actually want to see if they could turn an animal into a skeleton by just eating its flesh.

And I don't want them to get filled up on this.

But anyways, considering this piece of dog food was only in there for like 10 minutes, the beetles made a pretty decent amount of progress by chewing a bunch of tiny little chunks out of it.

100

Anyways, for the main course on feeding these guys, I've got a duck head.

101

Yeah, and we're gonna see if they can turn it into a white duck skull.

102

But yeah, don't worry guys, I didn't do this to the duck.

103

I actually just bought this at the pet store.

104

Apparently they're dog food.

105

Jack, can you give this a taste test?

106

You think the flesh-eating beetles, you think they're gonna like it? um yeah he's licking it i think he likes it

107

so since it passes the jet taste test i wasted no

108

time to put this into our tank let's see what these bugs do now immediately things were pretty interesting

109

because many of the beetles of course were drawn to this nasty duck head

110

and pretty much all of the beetles started to gather at

111

the base of the head these guys were all slowly chewing away at the fur of this duck head

112

and it was cool

113

because you could gradually see the group of flesh eating beetles move up along the side of the duck head

114

and they were even eating it so much that they ended up knocking it over.

115

Eventually, it was so nasty because the beetles had just completely swarmed the head

116

and were crawling in and out different parts of it, like the hole in the beak.

117

And after leaving this in here for a full 24 hours, you can just see how much they chewed through all the fur, and just how nasty this is.

118

But the real damage was done on the bottom of the skull, where it was completely chewed through.

119

These are the literal bones of the duck skull, and this is just straight up so disgusting.

120

This looks like a zombie duck head at this point.

121

Oh my gosh, this smells so bad, you guys don't even know.

122

But dang, check this out.

123

I'm actually kind of surprised.

124

This didn't just like turn a completely white skull kind of color.

125

Because I know these beetles sometimes do that.

126

But I guess it makes sense.

127

This is just kind of dog food.

128

But I would call it a success.

129

I mean, look at how destroyed this thing is.

130

Anyway, so these guys will definitely make a very interesting addition to my pet collection.

131

Alrighty, we're almost at the final 10,000 mealworms versus watermelon test.

132

But quickly, I'm excited to show you guys time lapse number three, which is an alien creature digging.

133

Yep, you know how some people set up their ant colonies

134

and 2D ant nests to get footage of them digging out those tunnels along the glass?

135

Well, this alien creature is actually able to do the same exact thing.

136

Let me show you how.

137

Yeah, so this thing's called a vinegaroon, and it's the same one from a few videos ago on my channel.

138

But you see, I call them an alien because, let me just look at them, they look extremely weird, and they have these claws at the front of their body that actually allow them to dig.

139

Yup, and for this guy, as you can see, I filled this tank up with a bunch of clay.

140

But if you look, I actually left a hole on the side of the glass empty.

141

That way, when I go and fill this place up with dirt, the vinegroom won't be able to make a hole anywhere in this dirt, other than that hole I made in the clay right on the side of the glass there.

142

Now anyways, after getting the dirt in, I wasted no time to put the vinegroom inside.

143

Now immediately, this alien creature wasn't exactly super interested in digging.

144

He was kind of just trying to climb out.

145

But you see, that's

146

because there's actually a few things I have to set up in here to make this guy want to dig quickly.

147

First of all, I put this water dish in here, and then I started to use my finger to dig out a little tunnel under the water dish.

148

Now when the vinegaroon comes over here, he'll find the little entrance to the burrow I made, and when he's ready to dig, he'll know where to start.

149

So guys, I just went and set up my time-ups camera in another room, so we could observe what these creatures do when no one's watching.

150

And yeah, during the first few hours, since it was technically still day, you can see he was very active amongst the top section, still trying to escape.

151

But the second it hit nighttime, this dude went down to the burrow section, and he started to dig up like a straight up drill.

152

Nah, let's see that on an instant replay.

153

That's actually pretty cool.

154

You can literally see the pile of dirt up here grow as the vinegaroon digs out all the dirt from the tunnel.

155

I think this is some of the clearest footage ever caught of these creatures digging.

156

It's pretty cool to watch.

157

Well, dang, now that this guy dug this tunnel, you're probably wondering why they actually make these tunnels.

158

Well, they actually make them to hunt.

159

And well, I got a cricket right in here.

160

Let's drop this thing in.

161

And so after I dropped the cricket in, he started to walk around the top area.

162

But little did he know, the vinegaroon was right under his feet, waiting in the burrow for food to walk in.

163

And a little bit later, the cricket did just that.

164

He started squeezing through the opening that was dug out the night before.

165

And he went in deep enough to where the vinegaroon was sitting.

166

I know it got super foggy in here when I brought it to my recording area, so it's kind of hard to see, but the vinegroom started to attack the cricket, and he started to chase him out the burrow.

167

The cricket tried to escape, but it was no use because the claws of the vinegroom are just too strong.

168

And I know you guys can't really see it well in this footage, but I can assure you, the cricket is no longer with us, to put it lightly.

169

Dang, that was cool.

170

But I'm gonna go and move this guy back to his original enclosure I built in the original video.

171

Well guys, it's finally time to do our final time lapses with the 10,000 mealworms.

172

Okay, I'm not going to waste any time and I'm going to record some stuff right away.

173

But before we do the watermelon, I actually want to start with something a lot more interesting.

174

This thing.

175

Yeah, this is literally a piece of styrofoam.

176

And you're probably wondering right now, what the heck, Terra green why are you feeding this to the worms well it's

177

because mealworms have an absolutely insane special ability and it's actually

178

that they can somehow digest styrofoam yeah talk about the lamest special ability ever

179

but i just had to get a time up showing this off

180

and immediately these dudes started to completely climb all over the

181

styrofoam completely covering it i don't know why mealworms are one of the only animals that can eat styrofoam.

182

It's honestly kind of weird.

183

And the craziest part about this time lapse is if you look right down here, you can literally see the moment when the mealworms decided to start chewing a massive hole through the side of the styrofoam.

184

So they could literally crawl inside to eat more.

185

It's super cool.

186

And anyways, after leaving the styrofoam in here all night, I shook off all the mealworms so we could see the damage that was done.

187

And holy look at this thing.

188

First of all, that hole the mealworms shoot through the side is nasty and it's still filled to the brim with worms.

189

Then just this whole top part has bite marks all over it.

190

And this thing is probably hollowed out and just filled with worms.

191

Nah.

192

And yeah, if you're wondering about the other pieces of styrofoam, basically the exact same thing happened to them and they got obliterated.

193

It's safe to say these mealworms are hungry.

194

Now, I think it's about time we get out the watermelon so we can do the final time lapse.

195

And I got a knife here so I can go

196

and cut this thing up so we can reveal the nice juicy red part.

197

So yeah, that's exactly what I did, and I just put the watermelon straight into this tank so we could get this test started right away.

198

Now, you already know, the mealworms started to, of course, climb all over the watermelons right away.

199

Mealworms love watermelons because, of course, they're super sugary and sweet, but they're also made out of 92% water, meaning the mealworms can just get super hydrated.

200

Now, it's so crazy because you can see how nice and bright red this watermelon is now.

201

Well, it only took a couple hours until

202

that bright red completely started to fade as thousands of mealworms started to climb all over the watermelon, nibbling tiny little pieces out of it.

203

And yeah, this all happened in the time span of only 12 hours.

204

Yeah, I literally just left this overnight.

205

Okay, I just checked on this for the first time since waking up.

206

And first of all, this smells absolutely disgusting.

207

But look at this.

208

This was a bright red color like 10 hours ago

209

but it's like completely rotting because of what these mealworms are doing to it.

210

This is nasty and they're making all these tiny little holes in it.

211

Nah.

212

Anyways, I moved the tank to the floor to continue the rest of the time lapse.

213

But as you can see in this footage, as I continued recording, the mealworms weren't nearly as interested in the watermelon.

214

Pretty much none of them were even eating it anymore.

215

I mean, it does look pretty rotten to be honest, so I guess it would make sense to why they don't want to eat it.

216

But yeah, I decided to just stop the time lapse since they weren't eating it anymore

217

and I came back 24 hours later so I could see the full results of what the watermelon looked like.

218

What the heck?

219

This is so nasty.

220

Is that mold growing on the watermelons?

221

Oh my gosh.

222

But actually to my surprise, when I took a look under the watermelons, there was massive holes chewed through the green shell part.

223

And like this watermelon here had so much chewed through this part.

224

So yeah, I guess the mealworms really were eating the watermelon, but I guess it just wasn't showing up on the time-lapse

225

because it was happening under where we could see it dang that's actually insane

226

that they could eat so much anyways hopefully you guys learned something new

227

or were entertained by the time-lapse as I showed you in this video

228

and about these 10,000 mealworms well I'm gonna have to see

229

if I can get these donated to a pet shop

230

or something anyway since this is the last video I'm posting

231

in 2025 I just want to give a massive special thanks

232

to everyone that's been watching the channel this year we've seriously grown so much and we've just posted so many fun

233

and cool videos.

234

So seriously guys, thank you.

235

I actually appreciate it a lot.

236

And of course, thanks again to Chime for sponsoring this video.

237

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
