Fun fact all the mayflys you see here are dead R.I.P
Very much true
So sad
All of them only live for 24 hours :(
So sad đđ„đđ
@Fearless Troop Another grammar wizard huh? Honestly can you guys just stop.
âand the pairs mate in mid airâ
truly love is in the air HAHA
At this moments, I should thank God that I still life right now.
@Fearless Troop whatever
@Fearless Troop why u so pressed....not everyoneâs first language is English
@Fearless Troop lmfaooo
Yes brother we should all be happy we still life and not be die
@Fearless Troop theyre lifing it's a verb, "I'm going to life today."
This is the most beautiful thing ive watched..what short but sweet life span..thank you bbc
They live less than a day as soon as they emerge out of the water. BUT, they can live up to 2 years as nymphs under water.
Thanks for including that extremely pertinent fact that answers a question I was hoping THEY would answer.
So they live 2 years and up to a few days
they spend a year awaiting birth but females only last a few minutes while males can last 2 days
Why not just stay a nymph thenđ€đ
@@tylerhammmond they can't be like this (nymph)cuz they should reproduce inorder to live their species on earth so they must transform into mayfly

See these all the time. I usually see lots just motionlessly perched on the patio walls. A few months ago I actually managed to see mayfly nymphs inside a water bowl outside :) they swim like fish and itâs so fascinating to watch
Male Mayfly: in case if you forgotten, hereâs how things work. I fly to you, I f*ck with you, and you lay the eggs. We do that for four minutes and then we die!
2:32
Male: You like that baby?
Female: YES, JUST DONT DROP ME.
Also female: Whatever, I'm gonna die in the next 15 mintues anyway
Mayflies: THIS ISNT EVEN MY FINAL FORM
But it is.. ;-;
They are like tiny fairies.... so cute.
Wtf woman ??
Don't focusing on their last day, because they spent up to 2 years in they're larval form.
So, is a long life for an insect. Those fascinating little animals are very important for the environment, because the chain feeding. And they're also living indicators of quality of the water, they are so delicate and a little amount of pollution is mortal for them.
Sorry for my english, hope you understand. :)
You are absolutely correct! And your English is very good.
I work as a boat painter on the Kennet and Avon canal, I started my business in May last year. Iâm also born in May, itâs my favourite month naturally for this reason but also for the arrival of spring. Itâs lovely being greeted by the Mayflies again this year, theyâre so fleeting and it reminds me of how special it is to live in the moment. I get plenty of Mayflies on the boats when Iâm working, and Iâm extra cautious to try to make sure the ones that linger avoid the paint as Iâm working. Itâs unfortunate for some though but I try my best. â€
Mayflies are awesome. Every fly angler adores them. Beautiful photography also!
Teacher - Tomorrow is your exam
Mayfly - Tomorrow is not a word for me
So basically this bug was created solely for the purpose of being food for other species. That drive to mate just keeps them coming back each year to keep the food chain successful. Brilliant idea!
No, no, and no.
@august west I don't mate like that so I guess so đ
Yeap.. i guess you would have done a better job? At creation. Enjoy the moment đđ
@august west tf you mad at him for?
Well they keep the water clean?
Everyday, a mayfly dies.
Everyday an uncountable amount of organisms die
@@MichaelMyers66793 everyday trillions of organisims die
@@Acousticmf123 probably more
Every second bruhh
The cycle of life: So beautiful, facinating, but still somewhat sad
One of the many pleasures of fly fishing on a river is witnessing the mayfly hatch
There was one sittin on my curtain⊠never seen it before here in switzerland. Such beautiful creatures wth
Imagine knowing that youâll only get 24 hours to live and then dying in the first 5 minutes
amazing video !!! they swim like fish and its crazy how they go from the water to air so fast
So thatâs what Paul is
I'm here not for a long time, but a good time.
That's Paul đŻ.
Amazing feature and narration
I don't understand why mayflies supposedly have the shortest lifespan when in fact they live in water after they hatch for up to 2 years. That's pretty long for a bug to live.
Shortest lifespan as adults
Bruh a pair of those did the dirty on my window. Smh.
Lmao
Why did this just make me sad? đ
Because the absurdity of life can be unsettling.
It contains death
Live every day like itâs your last. Oh wait, it is.
Thankyou đ
Love is in the air lmao
1:37 same
Nature is beautiful
Chill as a kid underwater. Fly, bang, and die. What a life.

i come here to know 'what is mayfly' after saw red and mayfly from larva cartoon
So sad đą
bruh I hate the big shows the close ups give me shivers
Fascinating indeed
Mayflies are the only creatures that can speedrun midlife crisis
so cuteeeâ„
Actually I knew about mayfly from "my girlfriend is an alien"đœ
These bugs really just did a real life speed run
They are all over my door and I found one in my bathroom. I was scared when saw them.
Now I know why they are called "may"flies
Itâs the end of October in Illinois and they are literally everywhere! I canât open the door without 2 or 3 flying in! I figured they wouldâve died by now because of the cold weather but I guess itâll take a while longer.
Not anymore lol
We live at a lake so itâs pretty bad the first few days of the week đ€Ł
Im here because of Larva cartoons
Same! I wanted to know about them......
@@genesisordonez7938 lol funny how curious we are
The nymph stage is one year why it is the shortest lifespan
Subhanallah â€ïž
Iâm busy today, but will that important thing tomorrow
So many shots Iâm just like how long did they have to weight, howâd they get the camera so close without a reaction from the wildlife. I need a bts on wildlife docs theyâre shit so cool.
Oh hey its paul
Incredible and short.
Me: No just short.
Wonderful creatures!!
oh no...they suck! lol. watch some mayflies videos of them in the cities!
Nearly every evening I have these land all over my car, they come from no where, land and then go again. Very annoying when Iâm trying to wash the car. đ
@Fearless Troop stfu if you don't know."these" is plural and after a plural you don't add another.
@Fearless Troop lmao butthurt over a grammar mistake

Like a mayfly, maybe the aliens will say that human just live for 100years, the shortest life for human..
WOW i like it, it's remind me of larva movie

How tf did these things survive billions of years of evolution
This is the closest thing we have to fairies
They are the life speedrunners. Change my mind.
They live for two years in the water before developing wings and flying off the water. So, their life cycle is pretty long for an insect.
â@@mp6471You are absolutely correct!
Red Larva: *Intense sadness*

Wth why do they fuse their moufs shut in its final form
i think its left behind with anything else that can make them too heavy to fly.
@@lintfreecloth ah I see
1:03 me getting out of bed in the morning
đ So true
Maybe mayflies are water type, also they might supposed to be flying at water I think lol
What happens if we perform surgery on a mayfly and give it food? Mega evolution into flygon?
that only works on lobaster I think, I heard that they canât âdieâ
Watching this, can't help but think. With such a short lifespan, why were they created? To clean the riverbed? To be food for other animals? If that's the case, then the Mayflies are more purposeful than us humans. Think about that.
I still hate the things but this video was pretty nice
Kinda nice tho. Living peacefully eating in the mirky darkness then enjoying a trip to the heavens and finding love and banging midair. Kinda neat. Might get eaten early by a fish tho so that balances things out lol
*no one*
*absolutly no one*
God: Lets create some animals whos only purpose in life is to horribly starve to death!
