A Chinese journalist named Shen Shwei has been trying to clarify the mystery surrounding the Beijing worm rain on Twitter, claiming that the footage was false and that there had been no recent rainfall in the city. The worms observed in the video, according to some sources, are usually present in the area in March and are not unusual.
I’m in Beijing and this video is fake. Beijing hasn’t got rainfall these days.

It is unclear whether the worms falling from the sky are the product of natural weather events or some other factor, but the event has generated a lot of interest on social media, with many expressing surprise, curiosity, and even disgust about the strange occurrence.
