According to the young man who posted the video, this could very well be a hybrid creature between a snake and… a turtle?
There have been numerous occasions when internet users have been left in shock by bizarre creatures accidentally spotted in nature. Whether slithering alone or in groups, they still send chills down our spines.
Recently, a foreign young man was walking down the street when he had to stop and pull out his phone to record a super strange creature. The viral clip garnered nearly 7 million views on TikTok, and to this day, the identity of this creature remains a mystery to many.
In the video, the creature appears to be quite large, measuring at least about a meter long. Notably, its movement across the road doesn’t resemble a snake nor a worm. Overall, the more you look, the more perplexing it becomes.
What is this creature?
The more you look, the harder it is to guess…
In the comments section, netizens sparked a lively debate about the identity of this strange creature. Several Vietnamese TikTok accounts shared their thoughts:
“Is it a giant earthworm, everyone?”
“Look closely at its tail; it’s sharp and tiny while the body is so big, really strange!”
“I boldly guess it’s a leech.”
“Looks like a walking lump of clay!”
“If I were there, I would probably faint on the spot instead of pulling out my phone to record.”
“Scrolling through the comments and still have no idea what this is…”
Paying attention to its tail, some comments suggested that it resembles a rat-tailed maggot – a creature that once “took the internet by storm” some time ago. They typically live in damp environments such as drains or bathrooms. However, according to many scientists, their maximum length is only about 15 cm (including the tail), making the size of the creature in the video quite unbelievable.
