- What's inside a clam? A retractable foot, a siphon for sucking up water, powerful muscles, and sometimes a pearl. And you thought oysters were fancy.

Science Insider: "What's inside a clam?"
Clams: *Confused screaming*
Just Some Bigfoot With Internet Access yo can I have your internet
Lol
You are literally EVERYWHERE!!
Ahhh it's you again. Should I call the cops?
Bigfoot, someday I will hack your acc and find who are behind the screen
for everyone asking: oysters can’t feel pain but clams can
This comments makes me sad because I took apart a clam when I was fishing this summer, I was curious of what was inside the clam 😞😭
I can go for clams right about now.
Zephie Kitawi I’m not gonna like it because I don’t wanna ruin the 69...
remind me to like it if someone made it surpass 69.
Zephie Kitawi litterally u dont know that stfu
Why? I mean I can fly and shoot lazer out of my eyes too if anyone asking
Without clams , theres a whole lot of species wouldnt exist without them .
Wdym
Like clams
@@aceshadowins1310 Adaptations take a long time to be put into effect. And you need to look up what the meaning of science truly is or else you wouldn't have made that simple minded comment. Take your foreign education somewhere else please.
@@Daisy-ge1ig it's not "foreign education" it's a little something called "common sense" you Americans don't have;) Learn HOW to think, not WHAT to think Mericans hahaha.
@@aceshadowins1310 I don't think science is common sense. :/
Just gonna say that Pearl's are clam boogers. Not kidding. Just like what happens in your nose, when something that irritates the clam enters inside it, it coats it in mucus that hardens over time and becomes the "pearl" we know.
Mugetsu 1012 it’s ok, honey is bee vomit and we love it just the same 🤣
@@Sheilor_Noir 😂
Mugetsu 1012 And honey is bee shit?
So… pearl from Steven universe is vomit
@@zyrillesadventurei5104 hahahaha no
I have never wanted to eat a clam before this. Now I definitely don’t...
Well mate. You missing out one of life greatest thing. You should try at least once in you lifetime
Oh, pasta with clams it's the best!
Scallop sushi is 👌🏽👌🏽
Elexiel i regret half of the decisions i made
Keneki For The Win well cooked. People who eat them raw rip if they have liver deficiency
The first humans to open a clam must have had trouble sleeping for the next couple of days. “Rock outside, M E A T inside”
2:36 I just love how they put a boot on a animated clam foot. 🤣
Adorbsss
I thought that its their tongue. MY WHOLE LIFE IS A LIE😂😭
It was obvious, clams dont need a tongue, i do still call them a tongue though
Same 😭🤣😂
Yep, also used to call that part the "tongue"
Is pokemon to blame for this? Haha
ehh, it's neither a foot, we just call it like that, it obviously isn't a foot nor a tongue
Explained basically three organs of the "inside". What about mating? How do they live off these "particles"?
I don't know exactly but male clams spew out "the thing" and it floats in water until it meet the female clams.
BL 69 this is true
Are u a teacher because I bet you say idk can you go to the bathroom?
I think it's salt or micro organisms such as phytoplanktons
How do they breathe do they have gils
I have so many questions now! How the insides of the giant clams look? How do clams make babies? How do they get their shells? How did they evolve this way?

Science Insider: shows geoduck clam
My brain: Gintama flashbacks
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Excited for the new season, has got a nice new art style but I'm going to have to re-watch it all :(
Not a reference I expected to find on this video to be honest
Important for the environment so people are eating them because it is delicious.
war elven yeah... if you like eating snot.
Very true. They clean the water around then. They're filter feeders.
Everything they filter... You will eat it... Huehuehue....
They have mollusk farms lol
Okay wooosh me or something I know this is a joke okay
It really isnt
Human : we must save environment.
Clams : helping save envitonment by filtering water
Also Human: clams taste good :)
It doesn’t exactly filter the water
Clams are still animals that need to eat actual nutrients not toxic waste. Infact they expel waste too so it’s not like they are just a vacuum cleaner or something
I mean they do...
yeah it tatse good , what you expect ?
A lot if things from the environment are tasty
@@fupert I eat a human arm and it will be tasty just add some salt
I've known that clams have feet exactly since 6th grade when I've first learned about it. It never left my memory because I was as shocked about this fact as probably you when you're watching this. I even drew a fishnet sock on the foot of the clam in the picture in my book.
The ocean is pretty awesome
I have an early memory of being at a family party in Wisconsin and a 60 year old relative was opening live freshwater clams with his bare hands. So far I've never seen anyone else able to do that.
Me: man I gotta get some sleep
Also me at 3 am : hmm what is inside a clam? Gotta research.
1:17 wow you got a clam with eyes on it!
😂
Wow, I heard those are very rare.
Ikr dude
Am I the only one who thought there foot was a tongue😭
Not gonna lie the shell kinda looks like the mouth
It’s because of spongebob lol
@@briancooley8777 True,
I always thought it was a tongue.
🤣🤣
@@monsemaniaa most people believed that was a tongue

Pearls are like kidney stones for clams and oysters, and we collect them and see them as beautiful
3:04 Try looking at it in a different way
Well this is better 3:24 HAHAHA
Add those two together and... *boom*
Wtf
:))
I wasnt the only one
Me: So lets claming
Clams : get ready to Clam up
I absolutely love the animated googly-eyes
Why I'm so excited about this video. I love these bizarre amazing creatures. They are just too cool.
If it doesn't feel pain then why should it hide itself from external threats??
nah probably instinct. All living organisms has an instinct to live and survive.
They will want to live right?
Not feeling pain doesnt mean you cant die
Lol I was like what kinda a question is that!? All living things want to live even if some organisms dont feel pain. It's a natural instinct. Even viruses which are alive/not alive want to survive by infecting other living beings!
Uhh to survive??
Is it true tho that clams can't feel pain because they don't have a nervous system? I guess you wouldn't mention that here since this isn't a video entitled "what's not inside of a clam"
I honestly hope so :(
But they form pearls in response to irritants and clamp up when they feel out of water or threatened... So they must have some sensors I guess
@@marfisilva Yep. Maybe just not 'pain' receptors? For example we humans don't have pressure-pain receptors in the skin of our elbows. (You can pinch tge skin there as hard as you can, it doesn't hurt) Maybe clams have some sort of touch receptors or something 🤔
Our brain it's self can't feel pain, only the pain receptors extending to our skin, scalp and bones do.
*oysters
Clams are complex enough to have the capacity to feel (we dont know if they do, but they are complex enough)
Clam: "Stop tickling my foot!"
Please continue to do more of these videos on insects and species like this
Science insider: What's inside a clam?
The guy named clam: 😳
lol
Thanks to coronavirus and CZcams i now am a MARINE BIOLOGIST
Amazing! Clams have eyes... I didn’t know that.
SI: So, these are the muscles?
Dall: yep
Clam, in it's mind: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Clam, in its mind: "Hmmm yes... me exist... me do exist... maybe... idk i havent figured out i think therefore i am so idk if i am yet" *meanwhile muscles being severed*
Clam: "hmmm... man it's kinda dark not having any eyes to see..."
1:50 "to open up just BUTCHER the animal like it's nothing.
forreal they just kiilll it w no remorse
They're doing it for science! That clam should be glad it's making such a contribution.
@@kensebego199 Wtf bro they dont need it, humans are just killing animals like psychopaths
Hate to break it to you but if he didnt something else would've alot messier than that and he didnt butcher it he cut two muscles holding it closed
guessing y'all are vegans?
3:04 ok there buddy.

God damn this clam even puts my longsword to shame
We should exterminate em

2:54 I never knew I was gonna see a picture of a clam projectile pooping today but hey now I feel more more cultured 😂👍🏽
Yes, thank you, this is something I’ve always wondered.
I’ve never seen a real-life giant clam actually move. The only time I’ve seen them move before was in Animal Crossing.
I feel bad for the clams harmed in the making of this video...
me: *_you got the stuff?_*
dealer: *_i do_*
dealer: *C L A M*
Its all fun and games until you see a clam walking down the sidewalk with new timbs
Me eating while watching this
My stomach: I have decided to turn myself inside out.
This won’t stop me from eating clams whenever tf I can
All power to you
@@WoahManny
RIP

I remember I dissected my first clam in elementary school. It was pretty cool.
the giant clams are so gorgeous !!!!!
Orders clams for dinner my iPhone heard it ...... gets home from dinner CZcams recommends that I watch this video so that’s why I am here
Something similiar here.

What's in a clam? Tasty goodness!
Do mines with garlic, breadcrumbs .
You can actually open a clam easily by using two spoons as a lever and jam it on the hinge part. Its easier that going in the front.
Where on Long Island was this done at?? I lived on Long Island my whole life and never seen this place. 😃

Clam is a useless disabled fish that taste good.

Clams have a feet
lmao why are they disabled?

Up until now, I thought that the foot was actually a clam's tongue.
Clams: *has a defense mechanism to avoid being eaten by animals*
Humans: *eats clams*
Clams: YOU WEREN’T SUPPOSED TO DO THAT
You guys might think I'm stupid, but I am. At first when they said 'clam's foot' I was like " They have a foot in their mouth?"
people : what's on your mind
me :
when they said they went clamming i realized how stupid "fishing" sounds
for sure
that's how conjugation works
@@jesusvera7941 i meant like. it's clamming for clams, fishing for fish, but it's not dirting for dirt it's digging for dirt
@@nidgithm hunting for hunters, oh
Lobstering and oystering
I actually never thought about this
You putting eyes on the clams are so cute
Clams are a freaking environmental hero! And oysters and so on. Love them so much for their work
Hey, Clam, big fan of your work.
This channel makes me feel big brain
ikr
This comment makes me feel small brain
Big brain makes me feel this channel.
Really wanted to know more about them interesting
imagine placing your arm inside one of these giant clams...
Living in a tropical island in the Philippines.. clams, seafoods and shells etc are just a normal thing to eat. I just ate mussels and oysters dipped it in a spiced vinegar yum yum yum fresh from the ocean 😋
sounds like eating ur gf out
people when eating the Clam: "OMG, this is so delicious"
Me: "Where are the Clam's mouth?"
Answer: 3:24 there are the Clam's Mouth

I once caught a fish on my fishing line that had a hook attached. I was surprised that a clam would actually try to eat bait.
I think that its weird that people eat them.

Jennifer your weird

@Saltyyy Kush420 🤣😂! Its a little odd for me because I have family that work at a bat sanctuary
@Saltyyy Kush420 no my aunt works at one in Massachusetts. Not sure where you live, but you can ask for help at a zoo or a sanctuary where you live.
When they enter the hole, how do they ever get out??
Idk
If you were to dig a hole, what would you use to get out:
Probably what you used to get in

Fascinating topic, thank you🐚🐚🐚
Poor clams; even disguising as a frigging rock doesn't save them from humans. 😒
Theyre not killing them just opened their mouth basically
@@ading4742 he said he cut through the muscle which means that clam can never close again. It will die.
Nothing can be saved from humans. When we are finished with this planet there won't be anything left. We really, truly are a virus. I wish we could accept that fact and decide to do the right thing by not breeding any longer.
Edwin Hernandez i agree to a certain extend but i know that there are still kind people in this world... i believe you are one of them :)
Edwin Hernandez Deciding not to breed? You mean not doing the most fundamental things living things do?

I just realised that😂😂
imagine getting your leg stuck in a giant clam while underwater
they dont let go
So wait, if farms make oysters go through a x amount of day cleansing period and I assume clams too, can they be eaten straight out of the water, say if you were on a deserted island?
I want to eat some clam now.
Yeah especially 6am in bed now
菲菲Run same time zone
I actually had clam chowder for lunch today. Never again. 🤢
So we are taking in the waste we polluted into the water when we are eating clam?
In the same way that you are taking in grass and bugs when you eat a steak.
That's a specious analogy. It's more like ingesting all the mercury and PCBs when you eat fish.
@@user-vn7ce5ig1z I think it's less specist than lazy and a poor analogy on my part, but thank you for assuming I'm a bigot before an idiot, lol.
at 3:50 there is this big pearl that was found by a fisherman here in the phillipines and costs alotta pesos
awww his soooo cute!
"We got a crap"
Disclaimer please about a clam being murdered for som yt video
I assume they ate it afterwards, so at least it's not a waste. I hope they did.
wow, that seems a lot of fun
Just awesome
