Let’s watch a white blood cell chase bacteria

[Officer Big Mac]

It's so cool to see life operating on such a small scale. And while we are in a pandemic, let's raise a glass to the unsung heroes of life - the white blood cell.

I'm not sure why YouTube recommended it after 12 years but it's still cool to watch. We need some Benny hill music to go with it though.

 

[Nepenthe]

Fascinating. Creepy, but fascinating.

 

[Zojirushi]

Isn't Corona somehow fooling white blood cells and then they fuck us up?

 

[Dinskugga]

Super cool!

I just thinking about the movie "the blob"

 

[DrFunk]

Shout out to killer T-cells as well

 

[JetmanJay]

But the other bacteria got away :(

 

[aisback]

This is neat

 

[Rangerx]

The bacteria should have drifted into that left a bit more.

 

[Everyday Math]

And here's a rather dramatic depiction of the Immune System destroying a virus.

 

[Ehoavash]

I thought it was a Cells at Work thread lol

 

[DiipuSurotu]

That's some Pac-Man shit right there

And that white blood cells are not "living beings" but still have the amount of agency displayed in the OP's video

 

[Silvergun-Blue]

Needs a soundtrack.

 

[katsu044]

Not as brutal as i was expecting , but still mildly interesting

 

[bytesized]

That white cell kinda sucks at its job, it took forever for it to catch the bacteria

I've seen this gameplay before, it's pretty cool.

My wife watched it a couple of days ago and the cancer episode caused her to break down (her dad passed away from cancer in 2016).

 

[Blackie]

I found myself rooting pretty hard for that lugubrious white blood cell and getting pretty mad mad at those pesky little dancing bacteria. Maybe the white blood cells should work in groups to better surround the buggers? Lol

Human body is really a complex network of interdependent systems working to keep everything running.

Sometimes I like to think that one day humanity as a whole could get to a similar point on a macro species level

Maybe it already is and we, as the cells, can't comprehend what the greater system is doing

Pac-Man?

 

[PaulloDEC]

Satisfying.

 

[FTF]

[mbpm]

But is there a guy in a news helicoptor commentating it?

 

[Polioliolio]

And imagine, if this wasn't pressed onto a slide, this takes place 3 dimensionally.

Once Upon a Time...Life, I swear I learned more from that show than some of my university classes. It was both fun and highly informative.

FWIW I also enjoyed Osmosis Jones which was obviously inspired by it.

That's a Eukaryote not a bacteria.
