more importantly how the fuck did they teach a caterpillar to solve a puzzle??
its grossly impressive
Probably the same way a mouse would start remembering how to go though the mazes to cheese, repetition.
no idea
I was surprised to be told that caterpillars were incredulous.
If I believed that then I'd be... Well, at least I wouldn't be a caterpillar.
Yeh. wtf.
If only puberty were this easy for humans.
Just stay in your home for ten days, turn into soup, and you become an adult.
JoCoBrony Lol
JoCoBrony Be careful what you wish for
BluEye Studios lol true

And some people don't grow out of it.
Who Agrees that this guy is better than 97% of the crap posted every week.
me
Betterthan You152 amen!!
Yep
yea
Im from Mexico and everyday the "youtubers" post crap, thats the reason because i search for videos of another places.
And thats right, this guy is one of the best i know.
and we complain over puberty
Yea us humans are so spoiled as a society
Actually, the caterpillars are not conscious during the transformation, it cannot feel anything while being digested by its own digestive juice
Yea but still and they don't process reality like us either so...
James Langley------ Soooo true
That just made me realised... am I the only human being on this planet thats glad I went through puberty?
I always just assumed it was magic.
TheNoerdy1221 lol
lol
Butterflies are badasses
If that's not magic, then what is?
TheNoerdy1221 same.
What happens if you accidentally press B during that week long pupa phase?
You get a Metapod
Or Kakuna
Or Silcoon
Or Cascoon
Or Shelmet
Believe me, I'm a Pokemon
Pika Pika He just said that cacoons are different from pupas, only Metapod and Kakuna is a pupa.
Pika Pika lol
You get Sil-Soup
my mom told me the wings we're inside the caterpillar...LIAR
Technically, she is right.
Phycov how is she right the caterpillar ate it self and then remade it self kids are just taught this for obvious reasons. However that does seem more practical for that to happen but nope nature has to be weird.
I am aware of how it works. I was making a rather strained but true statement on a technicality for a bit of a joke. If you can't see what that technicality is, you aren't a bright cookie. I will give you a clue, the bloke above you got it spot on.
Killer SEELstar were*
Well, she is technically correct, seeing as how the caterpillar itself (including its insides) dissolves and then reforms into the butterfly, wings and all.
I just noticed that I haven't seen a caterpillar for 7 years
I remember I would just walk down the street to an old dudes house,he kept his bushes trimmed,there would be caterpillars all over them. You look up in the tree,there is a whole silk bed covered with them. Now I go back there,the trees and bushes are dead and the owner is gone. I miss seeing them. They were always fascinating
Where are you living? Antarctica? ;)
I've seen no small tortoiseshell larvae at all this year.
It's been dreadful weather for them in the UK.
I feel like I never see their nests anymore. When I was a kid we had them in our backyard and I would play with the caterpillars. I remember noticing them everywhere, in trees along the road, but no more.
+Ayverie Ablaze Last year I drove home from school with my bike, and I passed by the old airport outside of town. The street I was driving is straight and two-laned, and there are some apple trees and lots of scrawny and thorny bushes on the sides, otherwise there's not much but plain fields. So I was driving along this street in late spring, and when I looked to my right, for a moment I thought it had snowed, because the bushes were all covered in a white sheen. But then I remembered that it was almost summer, and I got off my bike and looked again. I was first HORRIFIED, then amazed, because every single one of those bushes was in fact covered in spiderwebs, only it weren't spiderwebs, because inside of them, there was a writhing mass of TENS OF THOUSANDS of dark larvaes from whatever butterfly species that was. The branches were so covered in them that I couldn’t see them anymore at parts. I could downright watch the creatures as they ate the bushes bare, and when I shook a branch slightly, batches of the larvaes would fall to the ground.
I was simultaneously grossed out, creeped out and also amazed, because I had never seen such a massive hatching in my life. There must've been hundreds of thousands of larvaes on all the bushes together. I never thought I would once be able to witness this and probably won't again.
The Monarch butterfly is becoming extinct. I use to see them as a child too. I read they're being killed by Round Up Weed killer. Monarch butterfly only eats milkweed. But, when it rains and someone has used weed killer, it goes systemically into the Butterfly milkweed. The worm eats it and is killed. I use to use weed killer until I read the article. Now against it. It goes into the ocean eventually too. All the chemicals that are killing the Beautiful Monarch butterfly & what more? I would like My grandkids to experience nature like I did. At this rate there won't be any by the time they grow up & have kid's. I have a Butterfly garden with milkweed. I plant it in pots so no poison gets to them. The amount of eggs is amazing but, the chances of them survival is the knowledge of pesticides and what it does to nature. Wildlife too is so close to extinction too. Buy some milkweed from the nursery's & plant them in a safe area. Mine grow year round in southern California. They use to migrate to Mexico but they are chopping up the Forest's there. it's so rare to see one & the pure magic of nature and how they go through all the different levels of life to be a Butterfly is amazing. Help the Butterfly, monarch butterfly if you live in warmer climates. It's a great feeling to give LIFE!!
so what happen if you mix liquids from 2 catapillars?
It turns into a Beedrill
A frankenpillar - obviously...
I bet scientists are working on this. Pesticide resistant pollinating butterflies could help the slumping bee population
An homunculus
It will die if you open it.
Do caterpillars know they're going to be butterflies or do they just start building a cocoon like dude what the fuck am I doing?
Good question but I would imagine the hole thing to be painful especially the eating it self part I would not like to be a caterpillar who new something as beautiful as a butter fly has such a gross back ground XD
lol
pretty sure it's instinct
The magic caterpillar fairy tells them to do it or else she turns them all into ugly mosquitoes
ryanad 2000 Do caterpillars even have the nerves to feel pain? Actually even if they did, id be very surprised if the nerves didn't sort of shut down as or before the process began since there's no need to receive those pain signals and all. Seems it would be counter productive for their own bodies to discourage via pain what the body wants and needs to do.
Wait wait wait, they taught a caterpillar to solve a puzzle... then somehow got the butterfly into the same puzzle and it solved it? I'd like to see those videos. lol
Shaggy2286 a caterpillar was given shocks while exposed to a smell. Once as butterflies,they avoided the smells that once gave them shocks
lol! I was wondering the same thing!!
czcams.com/video/uK_iZZ4Bx2o/video.html 3:00 of this video.
Thanks for the link, certainly expounds on the info🤔 learning is fun! Even when I’m tricked into it 😡
@@uzi771 Thank you.
I learn more facts from him then in school
Ain't that just the truth.
BH2000 I would say you learn better (at least a lot do) watching videos than in school, as you are sitting and listening to a lecture and taking notes. And even being passionate about the topic you still will just not learn. Unless it is taught in a fun way, but it isn't taught in a fun way 98% of the time.
BH2000 Yes I like math too, and I agree with you, however physics isn't bad when you have to use math equations to solve things. I like that the most as you see a purpose to the math formulas.
BH2000 I don't see how that would make you a weird person.
Recon IMWIN *than
caterpillars are so cute and derpy but also really gross.
This is the most accurate description. I also liked 42's "furry slug".
How do you even make a puzzle for caterpillars ?
put leafs in a maze?
Michael Benedict leaves***********
Thank you, I was wondering this too.
Tyler Kordish well that's not really a puzzle that's more of classic conditioning.
nicolasmauser yeah what puzzle is a caterpillar gonna solve?
Here's another wonder - A girl, turn into a girlfriend, and than into a wife, and than finally becomes a monster.
The greatest transformation out there.
lol
*then
Yeah. Once you get so many girlfriend candies that she's demanding you evolve her to wife, you gotta transfer her back to the professor.
XD
Wow I was literally thinking about this at work today and was planning on looking it up on youtube once I got home. #Thoughty2theRescue.

Be careful who you bully in high school😛
what?
Wtf
Don't bully the unfavourable, they might be more successful than you in the future.
And if you ignore than their success will benefit you?
Lucius Aurelius Commodus how?
I met an incredulous caterpillar once. I said to him, _You'll be a butterfly one day._ He went, _Nahhh. Not me, mate._
😂
If scientists figured out how that magic "goop" works, could they make it turn into things other than a buterfly if they got enough of it? Like could they force it to form a human, or dog, or something? What about in like billions of years
That'd take a whole lot of goop. And be EXTREMELY complicated. Kind of like comparing a movement from 5th to 6th grade, and a movement from 5th to Harvard University.
poiuytrewq11422 yea not to mention the butterfly still has the same chemical make-up so it is NEAR impossible for it to change into a human or something else like that...
If anything it might just become a bigger butterfly.
That is and interesting idea possibly.
No. The "goop" is specially evolved to from a butterfly, and only a butterfly. Getting it to from anything else like, say, a puppy, would be no less difficult that simply trying to create a puppy from raw materials rather than breeding existing dogs. You'd need a completely different set of enzymes an nucleic acids.
What happened to RIF?
It ended after RIF 100, and was replaced by Casual Thursdays!

As unpleasant as nature can be, it is still none the less fascinating. Thank you for sharing, most informative.
I never knew caterpillars were this cool! Definitively one of my new favorite creatures :3
I actually saw inside a pupa when I was 5 I was very confused when I saw a liquid pour out.
Lol
Yeah, it's a pretty gross surprise. I did the same thing at about that age.
WHY????
Did you drink it?
Matthew K. No I think I just showed everyone I could find
Am I the only one horrified by 3:30?
I just imagine a guy going
"HHHNNNNNNNNGGGGGG!"
The entire time.
Im scared of caterpillar, that means Im scared half of the video..
imagine that if we find out that the study to catipillers leads to shapshifting for humans xD out of this world ideas is out if this world
Yeah I'm not going to volunteer to be liquefied just to try to shape-shift.
Well the liquefication part is pretty easy. The major issue is, you not being dead.
Pyromaniac Animorphs lmao
Pyromaniac space travel will be much easier if we are liquified.

Frank Schneider Well i could think finding a way to leaving the brain so it can somehow reconstruct you
Remy Lebeau But it's for SCIENCE!
Are caterpillars really incredulous? 0:04 Or are they incredible?
Wow! I'm amazed! I was wondering why my caterpillars Carl, Ericka, and Steve were not appearing to be making anything like a pupa (I honestly believed they would make it similarly to how a spider makes a web). Now, I know and its really cool!
Who knew that the size of the universe and the metamorphosis of the caterpillar had so much in common; they both completely blow the mind and humble us at the same time.
I've not watched you in years. I think it was shortly after you reached a million subscribers. Glad to see you're still uploading content
"Soupification" is a new word for the ages!
I learned more from this guy in six minutes than what I get out of school in a month! You go Thoughty2! Staying subscribed.
Did anyone else get kinda grossed out when showed the footage of the pupa getting cut open
hero awesome kinda
I felt sad for it
I think I died inside a bit-
Disgusting. He could have downloaded some photos from google to study the guts of these poor animals
Why did he cut it open?! So cruel!
Ok this video is genuinely 100 percent brilliant! I love flutterbys, i think most folk do, but i never knew it went through so much to turn into the butterflies we see around us, i simply thought the caterpillar grew wings and legs etc, while in its pupa stage, i had no idea it turns into liquid (within only 10 days???? wow, i mean, WOW!) and then transforms into the pretty little things we see each summertime, i am genuinely amazed by this, actually this video has made my day, and it is most certainly one f your best videos thus far, which is incredible considering your videos are of such high quality anyway, the information you provide is simply astounding, well done thoughty2, i will now look at flutterbys in a completely new light!
I'm more amazed that somebody has made puzzles for the caterpillar and the butterflies.
I love your channel!! Keep up the great work :D
This was the grossest, most interesting thing I've seen in a while.
Absolutely amazing content! Thank you for sharing! 💕
This, Sir, is a Great video. Thanks for your very talented delivery.
The butterfly fairy comes and puts a quarter under their pillow, then they get so excited they suddenly grow wings...
What? You got a better explanation?
What happens when caterpillars turn into butterflies?
It levels up
The most decent channel on youtube with respect to content and presentation. I thank life that i found you :)
Hi, Thankyou for uploads thoughty2.
Every year I find moth caterpillars in my yard. They're so furry and cute I cant help but let them live! Sometimes I even pick them up and pet them as it crawls on my hand. This is the only part of its life it gets love from me. Once, I hit a moth with a flyswatter so hard I could hear the impact louder than a high five.
:C thats mean petting a moth with the intentions of swatting it when its grown up
I never once said I intended to. what I didnt say is that grown moths scare me, so I swat them if they get inside my house and too close for comfort.
but what if it was one of the caterpillars trying to reconnect with you and then you killed it
I would feel bad if I knew that. :(
IM SORRY I JUST HAVE A STRANGE PHOBIA OF MOTHS.
And spiders...
And many other things...
We had eastern tent caterpillars outside our house, and I caught one once and snuck it into the house in an old Crayola tin. My mom just had to ask “What’s in there?” in that I-know-you’re-hiding-something tone.
Gah he's not wearing a suit... what is happening?
He's metamorphosing.
avarice seven I genuinely thought he was going to be in a suit at the end...
avarice seven Lol
casual for nature suit for society? idk..
This video is great. Thank you for creating it.
awesome video dude, watching this makes you realise how little we actually know about life on our "OWN" planet
All we have going for us as humans is our brain and thumbs. Can't have it all.
i have a wang
Eric Carlson without thumbs we'd be screwed lol.
And dicks
Wow 😮 Speaking of Rebirth and Transformation no wonder I like butterflies 🦋
Wow I learned more here about this topic than in school
thank you for the great video! I always look forward for them. they always put me in a great mood
Really, what an interesting animal... I just wonder the benefits of those processes considering the natural selection
@6:05 got me upset like really y’all have to killed a butterfly 🤦🏾♀️
Another great video. Keep up the good work, Thoughty2
Been hear since 70ish thousand and man your fucking good at what you do. Much better then most people on CZcams.
I love this guy can he home school me he's honesty the only youtuber I watch every video he makes and never get board of his great wit and good banter keep it up mate
+brian george gtfo
+brian george im dying!
Brian george wow why so aggressive
thats fucking metal
actually its carbon
Still metal.
And halogens
carbon isn't metal, I think.
+flashdrive it isn't...
We had those same type of caterpillars in my old neighborhood. I made 2 attempts to keep a caterpillar alive through its transitioning phase into a butterfly. The 1st one escaped, & I accidentally stepped on it. The second 1, I cut off the section of the plant it was on, then placed in a plastic fish bowl. This time it was enclosed, but it had openings on the top, so it could get fresh air. I think it was partially luck, & good timing, because within in 1 week it began its cocooning process. From there, I just waited until it emerged. It was an interesting process to observe, & I set it free immediately. It looked the same as the 1 in this video, black yellowish-orange wings.
thanks for the knowledge bro. this is why im subscribed to your channel
Ten people dislike this video crazy this is a very good video.
the 10 dislikes were from caterpillars who didn't like seeing that guy cut open the pupa!
Oh my gosh he's so cute🙈
Oh my god this was amazing, I loved your Pokémon references.
I like Thoughty2 I been watch his channel for a long time, well actually I am sure I have went threw and watched them all lol. keep doing what you do, your good at it!
I haven't seen a caterpillar since I was born. And now that I've found one, I keep visiting it and feeding it. I watched this since my caterpillar changed its color.
This is enough for me to believe the metamorphosis process is evidence of design. 🐛 to 🦋 = Intelligent Design
No other way. This cannot just "happen" right 😉 It's definitely a God thing
@@MickiB_Is4916 Definitely. And think about the variety of butterflies as well. If you saw a new butterfly everyday since you were born it would take some 55 years to see them all! Incredible!!
This is completely amazing!
I knew I would get grossed by this video/explanation, but I had to watch because the content you produce is simply amazing and deserves support. ;)
I was planning to have soup for dinner... guess ill have toast instead 😪
RIF please
It ended already at 100
Screw the transformation, I want to see the caterpillars solving puzzles
that's some awesome episode. I have always wondered what happens during that stage and answer is truly shocking
Is thoughty2 a hitch hiker's guide to the galaxy reference?
Yes, it is.
Ray Chang love it!
Incredulous does not mean what you think it means.
Silkendrum huh interesting...
Maybe he was suggesting that butterflies/caterpillars are AS incredulous about their amazing metamorphosis as anyone else :) Hey, let's give him the benefit of the doubt. Lol
Thank you so much! This is fascinating! :D And you're an awesome narrator!
Great video! Dedicated my TOP 5 to most beautiful ones!)))
Such a simple organism, and yet, the metamorphosis is so complex no one know how it's done. And then people say this happened by accident...
Flix
Who says that?
Evolutionary biologists as well as atheists from the depths of 4chan.
Who came from Phil because _same_ and now I know why he was so traumatised
If you like this video and now think caterpillars and butterflies are neat, you can buy little kits for like 20 bucks that come with everything for larva to turn in to caterpillars and then butterflies, and then you can release them in your yard. Oh, and it comes with like 3-5 larva, and a little mesh enclosure.
Thanks Thoughty2 for the most wonderful documentary. :)
4:24 PLease dont tell me they actually cut open a pupa there
well what else can it be? it would be appropriate to show it. FOR SCIENCE XD
At this moment, millions of people puke at once.
Thoughty2. Lets go for a pint.
Mind if I tag along?
Me too... Please take me... ☺
Hey man, make more rif videos. I love them and it teaches alot. Keep up the great work.
This one is truly intriguing.... Nice work
am i the first one to say im here from the new amazingphil video
not a good a idea to eat while watching this.
thanks I'm at 0:52
robert rigopoulos your stomach is weak. I'm actually eating right now. doesn't affect me one bit.
👍
robert rigopoulos I disagree
The most comprehensive explanation of a caterpillar's metamorphosis that I've watched. Thanks for sharing! :)
THANK YOU FIRST VIDEO TO ANSWER MY QUESTION
Educational yess. Thanks Phil! Phandom?Hi.
Imagine future humans going through a similar metamorphosis. One day, when they are old and wrinkly, they sit down for the longest sleep of their lives. 10 years they sit, their insides turning into liquid and hardening. Over the course of the next 10 years, the human would begin to resolidify and create an entirely new species all together. Wings would burst out of the backs while their strength and endurance would be greatly improved. Their eyes would have changed to be a dark purple. Over the course of the next 10 days, their hair would turn a pale grey and grow to a moderate length.
Chubby worm......thank you Thoughty2 for your marvelous wisdom.
Subscribing, not just because I was way way way way informed about butterflies after this. BUT ALSO BECAUSE HE IS SO DARNNNNN CUTE! 😘😘😘😘😘😘💕💕💕💕
What REALLY Happens When a Thoughty2 Turns Into a Butterfly...
This is great to know. Up to this point in time I thought it was magic
it pretty *is* much magic
Any thing that happens in the universe has an explanation nothing happens for no reason whether its the big bang or how the butterfly reforms it's self and remembers everything all has a logical explanation, we just dont know what that is yet.
ryanad 2000 no everything is magic
Yeah, like magnets. How the fuck do those work?!
john kord nope it's magic.
Your videos are always very interesting!
love ya thoughty42!! :) keep up the good work!
So the caterpillar is kind of like the egg for a butterfly?
HI THOUGHTHY2
I always wondered this growing up... And to learn this, after all these years, is quite magical..! And still mysterious. To be able to liquify your cells, body and reshape it in around 2 weeks..! Truly amazing..!
When i saw the pupa being cut open it really made me sad knowing that its still a live being. I mean its like hitting puberty and being stabbed, but sometimes you need to so you can understand stuff better i guess.
