Here I was, scrolling through TikTok on my way to the office when I came across a video of the Falmouth Worm Charming Championships. The vid showed hoards of people separated into tiny plots of land. Some were dressed as birds. Others were dancing or flopping about in flippers. There was even a full orchestra shoved into their own roped-off space. So, naturally, I was intrigued. What on earth (worms) is going on? Were any of these methods successful? And most importantly, how does one charm worms? Well, please join me on a journey as we unpack what the actual fuck worm charming is.
