You can even see worms on that video at times when they move.

Tubifex Worms are the Unknown Life Form in North Carolina Sewer | NowPublic News Coverage

Tubifex Worms (Unknown Life Form)

Creatures from the Sewer | Deep Sea News

You shouldn’t trust me however…you should trust an expert in one of the aforementioned groups. Enter stage right Dr. Timothy S. Wood who is an expert on freshwater bryozoa and an officer with the International Bryozoology Association. I sent along the video and this was his reponse…

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.

No, masta did the right thing by explaining it, lest this becomes some hysterical-conspiracy-mystery-bullshit thread.

It's worms, folks. Now get back to bed.

It hasnt been proven to be those worms, at all, thats one dudes "opinion."

Show me one video of them moving in the same way, or one photo where they look the same as the original video. You cant, and neither can the "experts" you quote.

I don't know if there are videos where they move like here. It was said that it's a coincidence that they were found in that sewer. It's not one man's opinion. Various experts claimed so and to me that's far more convincing than a theory that it's a new life form. If it really was something extraordinary they would take it for some sort of examination but if they did they wouldn't leave a basis for various theories.

Plenty of experts said it was a Bryozoa too. Your experts disagreed with them, and plenty of experts disagreed with your experts.

I've seen video of the worms, they look totally different. Im not saying it's a new life form, but it's not those worms.

From what I know it's pretty clear now and I don't see any experts arguing over this anymore. Most sources take it as a fact now.
A guy I quoted is an expert on bryozoa and he said that it were worms, not bryozoans.

Even the city of Raleigh officially claimed so if I remember correctly.
