Man narrowly avoids running over mysterious creature crossing the road

Matt Anderson, a video blogger, was driving in Brisbane recently when he almost ran over a mysterious-looking creature.

On closer inspection, he realised it was a line of over 150 insects crossing the road together.

“Only in Australia have I seen something this crazy and makes you realise how amazing nature can be,” Matt said.

“A line of worm insects over 150 crossing the road in a line!

“This could be straight from the animal planet of a David Attenborough documentary.”

The insects look like caterpillars crossing the road in seemingly conga line fashion.

“Maybe it's because of a defence to larger pray and replicating a snake or perhaps they find it easier to cross large distance together in unison,” muses Matt.

“I am so happy to have experienced this line of worms. Just wow.”
