Sea worm sprays a whole lot of Nope (Extended HD version)

A sea worm's sickening tendrils have people questioning what it is, after video emerged of it squirting a membrane which moved over a man's hand. The creepy crawly, which resembles the sipuncula or peanut worm, gave its unsuspecting captors a fright when they spotted it off the coast of Thailand recently.A man holding the worm in his palm shrieks as its body contorts unnaturally before ejecting an elaborate system of sticky white roots. Using its unique digestive tract which starts in the mouth, the peanut worm can shoot out anywhere between 18 and 24 tentacles, ensnaring predators and prey alike.

How to hypnotise a deadly shark

Hey fellow liveleakers, First time uploader. Here's what I captured on my Gopro last week. As you can see, caressing a shark's nose basically makes it go to sleep. You can pretty much grab it and wave it around. The nose is a particularly sensitive part of the shark and the sensation of rubbing the tip just feels nice to them. Nice enough that they'll face death to feel it. That distracts them from the fact that they're no longer moving/breathing, and they sort of pass out. Sharks have to keep moving to continue the oxygen flow through their gills, even during sleep. When they stop, their brain starts to shut down, basically blacking out from lack of oxygen. So in reality, they are not so much hypnotized as they are half dead. *I do not support harming animals in any way. Theses are very experience divers and know how to handle a shark while it's in sleep mode. They take everything into consideration including the time before you let them go. As you can see in the end where the shark wonders off. Enjoy,
