All the people that are wondering if the pearls are real, of course they are real and finding that many in a freshwater clam that big is normal. Those are real clams that you see her cutting into to get at the pearls. The older the clam, the more time it has to develop more pearls and larger sizes of pearls. These are likely not cultured pearls because obviously she is finding them out in the wild. Freshwater pearls like these are not worth as much as saltwater pearls and natural formed pearls are worth more than cultured ones most of the time. Freshwater clams like these can grow upwards of 50 pearls or more in its life cycle while saltwater clams can only make 1 or 2 which is why saltwater pearls are worth more due to their rarity. The worth of a pearl varies depending on what kind of clam or oyster grows it, size, shape, color and luster. The nacre that the clam secrets and how evenly it coats the foreign object to form a tighter structure of a pearl effects the worth by a lot. Most pearls are low or average quality so freshwater pearls like these are not worth too much. You can buy a freshwater pearl necklace made of natural pearls like these for anywhere between 100 to 200 dollars or so. If they are cultured meaning the pearls are farmed by placing something like a bead inside the clam, its worth even less in most cases. Generally, pearls from oysters are worth more and are what farmers usually use to culture pearls. Most jewelry made from pearl are from oysters. The sad thing is that this lady is killing all these clams for pearls that are not worth very much. It's pure greed like this that pretty much destroys the planet. She doesn't even eat the clams meat which is a total waste.

This is not “waking it up” this is killing it Edit: y’all so mad over this comment I was simply saying she wasn’t waking it up like she said In the title I really don’t care that much if it dies bro-

Now where’s the giant 100 years old clam from the thumbnail

Reminds me of the guy digging giant nuggets of gold that were just spray painted rocks.

Surely if it was that easy there would be more people doing it. Sad to see these poor creatures destroyed for vanity

The fact that we don’t see her find pearls without a convenient jump cut after she opens the clams has me suspicious.

it's amazing how the mussel also knows how to dye the pearls too! ;)

PERFECTLY rounded magenta natural "pearls"....... in CLAMS, ...... above water. Wow!! Edit: ....and more that ONE

The fact that those clams were so big and had so many pearls inside means they must have been really old. It’s depressing to see you kill them so mercilessly 😢

While oysters can hold between 10-20 pearls, the odds of an oyster having any pearls is 1 in 10,000

Those are glass marbles - you can hear it when they clank together. Pearls are pretty soft they wouldn’t make such a sound

First of all....all these pearls were placed in that cavity.that place isn't where you harvest the pearls from. Then.... Waking up???? You killed it!

For those saying you can’t find that many pearls in 1 oyster, you can. They’re just not formed completely naturally. They are “seeded” to grow this many

Can't wait to see the video where she'll pull out the pearls already strung up with a clasp! And maybe already in a gift box with a bow!

어떻게 진주가 저렇게 하나같이 완벽한 구 모양일수가..ㅋㅋ 게다가 자주색 진주는 색깔 차이도 없어 다 똑같애..ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

How lucky this girl was! Good idea that she took the cameraman with her to make this... documentation (?).. 🤣

By the way, did you know how a pearl forms? It happens when bacteria enters between the mantle and it's shell, many cells in the mantle secreates layers of calcium carbonate. It's keep doing this until bacteria can't escape. This is how clams, mussels, oysters, scallops, and other molluscs protect themselves from bacteria. To protect it's internal organs. The coating of calcium carbonate around the bacteria leads to a formation of a pearl!

Это не устрицы, это речные молюски. В них никогда не бывает ровновного жемчуга. Речной жемчуг всегда не повный, только морской ( у жемчужниц) бывает ровный и круглый. Но и больше одной жемчужины, это редкость. Да и не бывает натуральный жемчуг такого цвета. Бред...

Это просто не реально таких цветов жемчюга не бывает .че́рный .золотой .малиновый.это просто не реально

it would be a smart idea to make a small insersion to get the pears so the oyster won't die continuously making more pearls

Aww a living creature that old deserves to live ❤

Cultured pearls can have their own natural color, which can be white, black, gold, pink, lavender, or blue, depending on the color of the mollusk’s lip, the outer part of the shell1. Pearl colors can also be treated to alter their appearance, with the most common treatment being dyeing, which is more common with freshwater pearls than saltwater pearls i googled it so all of yall can stop hating now because colored pearls are real.

I wonder whether [those are steel balls plating with various colors and inserted into those oysters through a small cutting line, then the oysters can cure themselves] or not ? If so, just let me know.

Fun fact, clams produce pearls as a response to an irritant within their shell. It is a defence mechanism to try and protect themselves from the irritant. So to make a pearl, you've got to put the clam under the stress of a threat to their comfort and safety, and at the end of the clam's life span of trying to fight off whatever it is that shouldn't be there, the clam just gets killed and it's defences are harvested and seen as a beauty. Pretty cruel if you ask me

They are the most round pearls that sounds like marbles, really who do you think you’re fooling? 😂

It would be fun hunting for clams to find their pearls, but I have shellfish allergies

I liked the color of the pearl❤

Красивые пластиковые шарики достаёт из ракушек🤣🤣🤣

The oyster is so much more valuable than the pearl and it is a real shame that most of us will not see this until it's too late.

Fascinating video. How much money would all these pearls be worth?

"I awakened the pearl clam that had been sleeping for a hundred years" IT'S MURDERING MA'AM

I was waiting for her to find gold coins and gold nuggets in there... and a day pass to disneyland.

Natural pearls ARE NOT perfectly round and as far as I know they don't come in that shade of purple.

Мне нравятся твои видео ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉✨😍

I do have to say this is superior to social media in which I get uttery trapped into that abyss each and every day.

I am amazed that they are all perfectly spherical and the size is unbelievable. They appear to be planted.

구라도 이런구라가 없네 ... 자연에서 나오는 진주가 저렇게 완벽한 원이라고 ...??

From a professional point of view, there will not be so many pearls of the same number, same color and same shape in one shell. It is fake. To be honest, it is a bit boring. I would rather see those real picking videos, which at least can make me happy. Learn the real thing!

Now that you've shown us the "process of collecting pearls outdoors", please show us how to do the same indoors.

Where is she...I wanna go! This looks fun.minus snakes and other deadly critters

I’ve seen clips of pearl farms, I think they were, where they could open the clams, oysters or whatever, in such a way as to not kill them. Then they were returned to make new pearls. Did she at least take them home to eat?

29 Million views brought you great wealth. Way to manifest, Pearl Girl!

I was wondering if these creatures survived after extracting the pearl, but seeing the way this woman viciously sliced open the shell and roughly pressed the inside membranes to force out the pearls.... I sadly have my answer. 😥

I fail to see the joy in destroying a clam that has lived for a hundred years 💔 😢

There’s an extraction method DIY without killing “ the hen of golden eggs” seen in KZfaq,operation is on a table clams are put on position and using tongs pearls are extracted,clams put back on where they were found

А я однажды достал из такой раковины золотую цепь, браслет , золотые Ролекс и ключи от BMW M8.

People who thought she would find a gigant pearl by the profile of the video.😂Whe need more peoples like you!🤣🤣

Jeez! Huge! In the freshwater! By the way, what are those pearls for themselves biologically/ecologically?

Как она не боится промывать жемчуг? 79 штук белых и 14 фиолетовых, это целое состояние.

Fun fact: you can collect them without harming the oyster but it’s harder to do.

Xero Does it kill the creature when the pearls are extracted ? I only ask because in your statement you say that Oysters can produce multitudes of pearls throughout its lifetime. If that was scientifically true , what do they spit amount out themselves throughout their lifetime ?

Natural fresh water pearls are rarely perfectly round. Explain.

What I learned about pearls is that they are never complete round and smooth until polished. Makes me wonder if this video is real

Wow They are so beautiful 🤩

For all the people out there wondering if this is true or not: of course you can find a huge claim with perfectly round different colored pearls like that😑

The fact that she knew they were sleeping for over a hundred years and chose to get the pearls anyway

im not convinced it's real. perfectly round-shaped pearls are very rare. and she just happened to stumble upon 4 clams that not only have pearls, but lots of pearls, and lots of round pearls.

I hope that she is collecting the flesh of these clams to feed the family and not waste it!

I once found a fully stringed clutch of benoit ball pearls in a clam.

I hope that y'all eat the damn clam because if you don't that's a damn waste😢

Love the purple pearls👍🏻 so beautiful

You are right if you crack it open once you crack it open it dies So don't ever do it I learned it the hard way:(

Hizo un Joann

ОХ УЖ ЭТИ СКАЗКИ, ОХ УЖ ЭТИ СКАЗОЧНИКИ🤣🤣🤣 ПРОСТО Я БИОЛОГ🤗

I can't see any iridescence on those pearls, which is usually unique to natural pearls, that's what makes them so beautiful.

Ok will send it today.

Keep going soon everyone last one will be gone.

Isn't life more important than pearls

There is a friendlier way to do it. You can just keep the clams alive and put some sand in their mouths to get more pearls. (Although that's just what I've heard tho. I don't really know much about clams)

Oiê sou a Maria Eduarda e gostei muito da historinha. Meu aniversário é 22/03 😘

She is killing what could be a renewable resource for future pearls!

That is cultured pearl harvesting - it is a business. Families have streams they own just for this, so don't get too upset.

Omg... so beautiful 😍

Haha, cute intro.

wow marvel at the unique creations

word around the world is pearls are never so round, so perfectly round

Amazing how these painted ball bearings come in 3 standard sizes. Even the pearl coloured ones have standard sizes, although you can tell those are actually plastic because of the different sound they make clinking together than the coloured metal ones.

And you killed it for a video

Banyak banget ka mutiara nya❤

С такой женщиной никогда не будет камней в почках 😂😂😂

If ppl were wondering these clams were planted with beads and as time goes on the beads start to get covered in calcium carbonate which then are turned into pearls. These clams aren't dead btw when they are planted with beads.

Wow ill get sea shells and make a necklace 😊❤

Мы с лукошкомзходим по грибы-ягоды, а они - за жемчугом! :)))

Число жемчужин в одной раковине может достигать нескольких десятков. Например в черноморских мидиях количество жемчужин может превышать 100 штук. Чем больше в теле моллюска жемчужин, тем они мельче. Так в мидиях, содержащих более 100 жемчужин, примерно 60-80 % жемчуга - это мелкий жемчуг диаметром меньше 2,5 мм.

Wow 😮! I didn’t know that clam have a lot pearls. I never seen before .

That thumbnail, though… 😂 The water is still over it, but it’s not submerged.

This is asmr and music to my ears

That's amazing!! The fact that they have to be killed to harvest the pearls is distressing, though. Maybe if she was also eating the clams it wouldn't feel like such a wasteful project to harvest the pearls. I never knew they could produce so many pearls; I always thought it was just one or maybe two. The purple ones are gorgeous!

Freshwater clams can make pearls as a natural defence against irritants that enter their shell or body12. However, it is a very rare phenomenon2. Pearls can also be cultured by inserting an irritant into the shell of a clam3. Only some freshwater clams are used to commercially grow the kind of pearls that have an opalescent sheen, called nacreous pearls45. Scientists can study these pearls to learn more about how clams create them and how they may change in warmer waters5.

YOUR SO PRETTY…AND THE PEALS TOO😂😊❤❤❤…….

I'm 53 at my only bucket list that I have is to have my emails again.And be surrounded by bunch of clams, so I can find Pearls.I have always wanted to find April's girlose.Pearls i'm willing to work hard finally

Wow lot of different colours of pearl

To be fair My son told me the sad story of how these pearls are made Inside the clam ..it's amazing how beautiful things can sine from sadness and it's a shame the clams don't get to keep their pearls after how they are made

Ce qui serait intéressant c'est de voir comments ils font pour glisser les perles dans la pauvre bestiole avant la vidéo What would be interesting is to see how they managed to slip the pearls into the poor creature before the video

I never laughed so hard in my life.

Pearl girl : kills.multiples clams cutting them in half Pear girl : WOW WOHO WOW

How do you know or prove how long a clam has been sleeping ? Those pearls are so pretty 🤩 there’s another video by someone else who said he woke up a pearl blue clam that’s been asleep for 100 year’s just saw another person claiming the same thing

What a ruse and we’re all watching 😂 😂

INCREDIBLE HOW AMAZING....

What's even worse, is these will end up being marketed to oblivious tourists as high end rare saltwater pearls. "Woo-hoo!" 😂
