Anybody have any idea what this is?

I've made a clip of it too, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vh350vaVoGE

seems like some sort of worm, but also seems to have some sort of web secretion or i may be imagining

whoa!....I mean WHOA!!!

I don't know what that is amien, interesting clip tho!
It almost seems..ha, I don't know...snail like...I can't tell if it's dragging an egg sac or it's home or if thats just part of it's body, that part doesn't look like it's moving on it's own. Sure is a strange one and I hope you find an answer......and don't send one my way, LOL ok?

if I run across some info I'll let you know

it's one of the plaster worms. suunto knows the correct name but it's like a bagworm that crawls across tile or concrete especially.
