New life form in sewers?

Has noone else noticed that the footage appears to be sped up dramatically?

It's quite easy to stop a time code when the footage is on the computer with the right software.

The clogs in the sewer ducts are just absorbing and releasing water over time in a cycle dependant on many factors such as temperature and time of day. Someone videoed this and sped it up. WOW.

Just a thought.. if its some kind of new 'blob' that lives off waste, then shouldnt people be checking this out - could have a new way of disposing of our crap (literally)!

otta give this a Star & Flag !!!

Nice find !!

However, I find it amusing that it was brought up that the video was sped up, err.. the time stamp isn't sped up .. yea..

the way it reacts to the light is definitely creepy and looks eerily similar to the responses of the eggs in ALIENS...

just a thought..

Maybe this has been posted already, but anyone else seen Ghostbusters II?????

The perspective of the six inch pipe that it was filmed in, making them about 1/2 in diameter makes this seem a little bit more believable. I think they are tubifex worms.

Interesting. That creature doesnt look like anything Ive heard of either...

Looking at the life form, it looks remarkably similar to the true form of a Dalek, perhaps it is a new viral advertising campaign for a new series of Dr Who.

Wouldnt it be interesting if they took DNA samples and it turned out to be something mutated from human biological waste? Is there an abortion clinic connected to those pipes? Or a doctors office.

Im not saying it IS that, but it sure would make for entertaining debate if it was.

CGI all the way. Yet another Summer Hoax. I can predict the future. I will tell you how this will end up. First, the video gets viral. Second, the news make a short story on it, making the video go bigger. Third, a few days later some nerd says he made the video with some cool software. Then from there things start to slow down, and others start to imitate the hoax until it gets lame. After all is said and done, then school is around the corner and everybody changes their mindset and it will be until next Summer Hoax. I say... whatever!

Or none of that happens, and people will still be discussing this for the new year or two.

Star and Flagged, it's interesting and has yet to be debunked.

thats crazy, someone really needs to find out what that is

its def not a bryozoa like some people are talking about

and im doubting its worms


really wondering how more news about this hasnt been available

The crew at DeepSeaNews.com sent the video over to Dr. Timothy S. Wood, an expert on freshwater bryozoa and an officer with the International Bryozoology Association (what fun parties they must have, eh?), and he had this to say about it:

Thanks for the video – I had not see it before. No, these are not bryozoans! They are clumps of annelid worms, almost certainly tubificids (Naididae, probably genus Tubifex). Normally these occur in soil and sediment, especially at the bottom and edges of polluted streams. In the photo they have apparently entered a pipeline somehow, and in the absence of soil they are coiling around each other. The contractions you see are the result of a single worm contracting and then stimulating all the others to do the same almost simultaneously, so it looks like a single big muscle contracting. Interesting video.

Possibly?

Or, city officials come out and announce that they're Tubiflex worms (or however it was spelled).

You can't predict the future. Good try, though.

Let's assume it is something like tubiflex worms...

What's going to explain the 'spike' retracting into the top-right corner of the last one?

It would appear (i.e. my opinion) that at least 2 of the 3 “creatures” have the white protuberances or “stingers”. The first one appear at about 0:17 at the top of the frame –although not as clear as the third one. The second one isn’t completely centred on the screen, thus it may have one – it’s simply out of view. The third one appears clearly at around 1:50.

First "creature":

Third "creature":

For those fond of the tubifex theory, please indicate a solitary worm – i.e. a worm that isn’t “attached” to the mass. In all the other examples we can easily point out solitary worms (not one, but several). If these are tubifex, we should be able to do the same?

As was pointed out earlier in the thread: It’s interesting that one group of “experts” can say without a shadow of doubt that these are bryozoa… And then another group of pedigree scientists come along and say it’s most definitely tubifex… Perhaps they should meet up and agree that it’s tubifex worms covering bryozoa?

Edit: Images.

Thats exactly what I wanted to say, I cant believe no-one else has realised this point. How are we supposed to take these so-called scientist's words as truth when they're both convinced it's something else. The worm people see worms and the bryzoan people see bryzoa. It's actually brilliant to see our bungling scientists in all their glory as they try and pretend like all those years at university studying fungi wasn't a complete waste.

Another thing, to all you people making posts where you simply copy in either one of the two "official" stories and then say something wise like "case closed" - In all your awesome wisdom did you ever stop to read the other posts and realise those same crapola quotes have already been posted, excessively infact.

Also.. I think we should name it.. SpongeFred RoundBooger...

Do you even know what a parasite is?
