An unknown lifeform picked up by sewer snakecam in North Carolina. Believed to be of ET origin...but is it??? Answer to follow later today....tell us what u think it is by comment below....

There's something horrible lurking in the sewers beneath Raleigh, North Carolina. Sinister, pulsating, fleshy mounds of ichorous slime, which seem to be breathing in and out, and occasionally clench like a traumatised sphincter. They look for all the world like alien larvae, skulking malevolently beneath the ground, just waiting for the right time to rise up and destroy humanity by sucking out our brains. Captured by a remote-controlled sewer-cam, the video of the mysterious blobs had been fascinating and nauseating internet users for several days. But what are these repulsive growths, and what malign purpose do they have hiding amid the discharged effluent of North Carolina's innocent residents? The answer may well have been found by the Deep Sea News blog, where writer and academic Craig McClain ruled out some of the more common theories - invertebrates like slime moulds, bryozoans, and cnidarians - before consulting an expert, in the form of Dr. Timothy S. Wood, who studies freshwater bryozoans. Dr. Wood told Deep Sea News: 'They are clumps of annelid worms, almost certainly tubificids (Naididae, probably genus Tubifex)... 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.' Tubifex worms are also known as sludge worms or sewage worms, and often live near polluted water, feeding on bacteria and organic impurities. So there you have it. The good people of North Carolina are safe from brain-sucking alien parasites for the time being, and we can all now watch the horrible video with a slightly reduced chance of bringing our lunch back up.
