He means bugs. To be more precise: the genetic alteration of bugs – very, very small ones – so that when they feed on agricultural waste such as woodchips or wheat straw, they do something extraordinary. They excrete crude oil.
Unbelievably, this is not science fiction. Mr Pal holds up a small beaker of bug excretion that could, theoretically, be poured into the tank of the giant Lexus SUV next to us. Not that Mr Pal is willing to risk it just yet. He gives it a month before the first vehicle is filled up on what he calls “renewable petroleum”. After that, he grins, “it’s a brave new world”.

According to the article, this worm was not specifically found on Mars, right?

They're very common on Mars, but I didn't know they were THAT common, practically traveling in packs.

But a REAL debunking, besides some vague argumentation i did not have found yet.
Some say the voices have no delay. Thats not debunking thats not thinking.
Because it states it is an unmanned mission, therefore the people talking are watching the (delayed) video footage on earth and commenting on it as they see it
Second, if they were capable of doing this around 1968, why wouldn't they have a communications technique without delay as well?
And who had around those times the budget, the means and the will to fake something like this?
I do also find the ground color ands structure have a great resemblance to the Rover pics we got 30 years later. Was at that time the surface color and structure already known to us?
The fact the sky has color means they also knew already that Mars had an Atmosphere, was that also already known at the time?
The only real suspicious thing i see is that between the different flightpaths there seems to be some interference of the signal.
Anyway.. Worms, there is one at the end.

OK, how about this.
It takes light or radio waves between 3 minutes 3 seconds, and 22 minutes 38 seconds to travel from Earth to Mars. That's because the closest the planets come to each other is 55 million km, and the farthest is 401 million km.
The Soviet Union's Mars 2 lander was the first Earth based mission to reach the surface of Mars in 1973, but communication was lost within a minute after touchdown. Three other probes, Mars 3, Mars 5, and Mars 6, either crashed or failed to even enter the planet's atmosphere during the 1973 and 1975/76 windows.
Viking 1 and 2 were launched respectively in August and September 1975, each comprising an orbiter vehicle and a lander. Viking 1 landed in July 1976 and Viking 2 in September 1976. The Viking program ended in May 1983, after both landers had died.
In 1964, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory made two attempts at reaching Mars. Mariner 3 was launched on November 5, 1964, but the shroud encasing the spacecraft atop its rocket failed to open properly, and it failed to reach Mars. Three weeks later, on November 28, 1964, Mariner 4 was launched successfully on a 7½-month voyage to the red planet.

Any number of cheap Hollywood movie studios. What looks so extraordinary?

How does a space probe change 'flight paths' like suggested in the video? Why would Russians be speaking English?

A starter would be the original "cheap movie" were this fragment comes from.

The worms can handle high temperature and reproduce asexually, according to the account published in the journal Nature . They feed on subsurface bacteria, previously thought to be the only organisms found that deep, and were found in what carbon-14 dating shows is 3,000 to 12,000-year-old palaeometeoric water. National Geographic said there were signs of the worm as deep as 2.2 miles. Prior to the discovery roundworms were not known to live below dozens of feet.
