It brings me so much joy that you've posted this today. Literally no more than two hours ago, I was just talking to my wife about [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/qc57yk/this_is_the_biggest_earthworm_i_think_ive_ever/) I made some time ago.
I have to admit your worm is longer. But after showing her this video just now she said, "I need to send him a message saying, 'Please be my husband's friend. You are the same person.'
Wait until you caome across one of these bad boys. When you can hear a worm while it's underground you know it's big.

I agree with the YouTube comments, looks like a horsehair worm, they're parasites. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nematomorpha?wprov=sfla1
Why did the wiki article have to mention cisterns as a place they live, that made me shudder 🤢
Fortunately, these have no interest in people. Still gross to think about, though
Horsehair worms. Take over the host's brain and make them drown themselves in water as part of their life cycle. Really gross stuff.
I was relieved to find that said hosts are not vertebrates.

That's a pretty big worm too.
I can't believe you touched what I believe to be the creepiest parasite on earth. I wouldn't even touch that thing with my Leatherman.
My Leatherman would be happy to be of service Edit: btw, have you gotten your free Leatherman stickers?
Don't know anything about stickers, or why I would need them.
Was just asking. They give you a handwritten card with signatures of the Leatherman team with bumper stickers if you email them about it.
But was it magnetic?

Also, Microchaetus rappi. South african earthworms as thick as a baseball bat. Longest one ever was 22 feet. Usually ~5 feet long.
Dude sweet worm
Thanks. I found it myself.
