The Alaskan Bull worm is a giant worm that appeared in the SpongeBob SquarePants episode, "Sandy, SpongeBob, and the Worm" and a video game "SpongeBob SquarePants: Creature from the Krusty Krab". The worm is able to easily destroy property by eating it. It is one of the largest creatures in the series as its mouth is mistaken to be a giant cave, its tongue is mistaken to be a giant worm, and its size is enough to crush an entire city.
Description
At the Krusty Krab, SpongeBob gives everybody a description of the worm; he says it is big, scary, and pink and "all wiggly". Sandy says she can fight the worm, but SpongeBob unsuccessfully tries to stop her numerous times. SpongeBob and Sandy arrive at the mouth of the worm mistaken as a giant cave. Sandy enters the mouth and fights with the tongue, which she has mistaken for the giant worm. SpongeBob reminds Sandy that is not the worm but just its tongue. They are later chased by the worm, until they happen to lead the worm of the edge off a cliff where it crushes the newly moved Bikini Bottom. Afterwards, it is revealed to speak, although its only vocal is a long "Ouch!".
Trivia/Goofs
- It is voiced by Dee Bradley Baker, but it isn't credited in the ending credits.
- Its acts of destruction include eating signs, buildings, SpongeBob's home, a fish's butt (twice), and crushing Bikini Bottom.
- It's similar to the Graboids, from the Tremors series, which are also giant worms. The end of the episode, which showed the Alaskan Bull Worm fall off the cliff, also parodied the end of the first Tremors movie.
- Sandy's "Worm sign" comment is a direct reference to the Dune book series by Frank Herbert.
- Although the worm is large in general, there seems to be a slight inconsistency as to how large the worm actually is. When first seen, he is easily distinguished as being about triple or quadruple Sandy's height, however, when chasing SpongeBob and Sandy, he seems to have shrunken considerably. When Spongebob and Sandy were riding him, he seemed to have grown again. Lastly, he was large enough to land on and crush the entire city. Likewise, at the beginning of the episode, he was small enough to travel through the city to eat buildings.
- It makes a video game appearance in Chapter 4 of the Spongebob Game: Creature of the Krusty Krab.
- Exactly why the worm is bigger than most of the characters is unknown, though it may have been either that this episode takes place after "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy IV", or the worm was mutated by the radiation left over from Operation Crossroads in the Bikini Atoll, which may explain why the characters can talk in the first place.
