      fun fact we assumed that it was eating the poop but we've found more evidence that its actually trying to eat from it's stomach the proboscis had a drill bit in the original parasitic snail. Also these snail shells were made from calcium which isn't how shells from all other snails are made.

    I'm on my fifth or sixth viewing of this, and I laugh Every. Single. Time!!! It's all the subtle things he does to make it seem like he's actually one of the commentators....the "Hi, Chris", when he entered the conversation, or him apologizing when he "accidentally interrupts" someone, that make this so unbelievably funny to me. The brilliance of the editing on full display. Genuinely hope this becomes a series, as I could watch this sort of thing daily.
