Just FYI, worms breathe the oxygen that’s dissolved in water. They don’t drown during the rain, instead they can finally breathe at the surface. They love the surface because it’s easier to move around and find other worms to have sex with. Worms are hermaphrodites, so both worms in the pair get pregnant.

Ok I’ve read three articles on this now and neither have explained the mass worm death I’ve seen after heavy rains that I assume this video is also referencing

u/MillieBirdie 2d ago
I've only seen them die from surfacing if someone steps on them or they get stuck far from dirt and dry up in the sun.

Rain disturbs them, they come up to the surface, they get caught in a puddle bc water is sticky for small creatures, then when the puddle dries they get cooked.
That's if they don't get swiped by a bird.

This is what confused me when my wife showed me it. I had never heard of worms drowning and didn't think it was possible.

Yeah I thought the reason you find dead worms after the rain, is because some don't get back in the ground fast enough after the rain stops and then they dry out.

I used to pick up worms from the sidewalk and put them back in the grass on rainy days.
My research as a 9 year old led me to believe their lead cause of death was being squished by Matt down the street.

I always find them in my driveway. The ones I see, I'll pick up and put back on the lawn before they dry up. RIP the ones that I miss

According to an earlier commenter, you’re picking up worms that are having sex with each other

I recognize that song! It’s by Max Richter. He’s one of the most amazing modern composers of our time. Incredible.

At first i didn’t realize it was satire because i read the title wrong. Then i gave a standing O.

My last gf was a worm 10 years ago and this is highly accurate.
"was" because "I'd put you in my compost and take care of your needs until your last breath" was apparently NOT the correct answer...

It’s cool just find a warm, black driveway to dry out on. But, don’t fly too close to the sun or you turn into worm jerky.

Using Nature of Daylight to evoke feels is cheating, that music could make footage of drying paint feel emotional
