Real Controlling parasites

(1/2) > >>

Toby Hamee:
I found this link to a video that shows how certain parasites can control the brains of grasshoppers and actually affect their behavior, making them jump into water and they end up drowning. I'm not sure if this should be in the general category, but it kind of reminded me of Yeerks, lol.

Here's the link, however if you get sick very easilly, you might not want to watch it.

I think the grasshopper parasites are called hairworms, here's a link to them crawling out of a grasshopper on youtube, it's pretty gross o.O;;

Toby Hamee:
someone already posted something like this? darn, sorry for the repeat then. ah well. Thanks though.
I can't get the link to work either....

Myitt:
Nah I mean the zombie snails, I'm pretty sure no one posted the grasshopper worms x3  It's interesting though.  And really creepy x3

I always loved that little exchange in Fight Club:

marla singer: i'll take the parasites.
jack: you can't have both the parasites, but while you take the blood parasites...
marla singer: i want brain parasites. (person at the register looks at marla)
jack: i'll take the blood parasites. but i'm gonna take the organic brain dementia, okay?
marla singer: i want that.
jack: you can't have the whole brain, that's...
marla singer: so far you have four, i only have two!
jack: okay. take both the parasites. they're yours. now we both have three...

There are always the various infections diseases that form the basis for most Zombie movies...
