WTF Flying Fish - Evidence of Evolution/Mutation?

[luvyouOonot11]

flying fish is not a new kind of fish --'

[megadarkassassinn]

they glide they don't fly

[themousemaster]

IT'S A BIRD! IT'S A PLANE! no it's actually a fish...

[keke121998]

is that even a fish???

[tokiohotelismyworld]

SUPAAA FISHH! :D -3

[NaoSouNando2006Nao]

Hahaha fish not only can walk but they can fly too hahaha... Kill the religious people. They have been mistaken to the point they have become a threat to the human race. I enjoy burning churches to the ground. Wake up and fuck them all worldwide. Evolution Now!!!

[wild0hawk]

its a flying fish, so ?

[wollin20]

Really impressive!

[amgt333]

we should interchange genes with the other fish thats able to walk on earth with this fish's flying ability

[themarxmarvelous]

How retarded are you that you have never heard of flying fish?

[sean1ers]

The only way to not be at the bottom of the food chain was to either be fast, have rough skin, be spikey, get big or get out the way. I guess these fellas decided to get out the way.

[H3llkn0wz]

Every time I scroll down to comments a part of me dies

[McLovinBt]

are you a little bit dumb? why should it be a gene drift or mutation?

it's a normal fish - a flying fish.

humans also eat nuts and we're no rodents ^^

and humans can dive and we're no fish ^^

[Korosiv]

@McLovinBt next thing you kno ppl r gonna be like "PLATYPUS? WTF IS THIS THING! OHhh MUTATION, NATURAL SELECTION WOaaHAH"

[patrickledford420]

mutation natural selection gene drift

[WhiskersMctabby]

why shouldn't fish be allowed to fly? i'm sure they've earned it

[ayshey]

dude this fish has always been there they r just not that commonly seen

[SaintsRowMaster12345]

this is not ur video

[macker993]

why wont it evolve? if it can Fly Away And evade it's Preditor thats hunting it. it can't evolve. evolution only acures when it really needed. exaple when a creature is beeing eaten and having a hard time Geting away. then it's offpring will have somthing more easy to use and easier to excape from that preditor. and thats how Creatures evolve in natures own path.

[drumrnva]

That's not quite how it works. Evolution doesn't occur because it is "needed". Rather, a creature that possesses the right features for a given environment is more likely to reproduce. If an animal "has a hard time getting away", it's far less likely to even *have* offspring. Over time, the environment and mutations select for the population that can survive in that environment.

[nathd86m]

well, no- that's no quite how it works- What actually happens is there is always a degree of genetic variation in all things. It is these differences that drive evolution. Say there are 100 fish and 10 of them are faster than the rest- the rest all get eaten, whereas the fast ones can escape and breed. And, they will have fast kids- who can survive- it's simplified here, but that's thats the method.

[donnomar]

No evolution does not occur when needed, evolution is random

[donnomar]

I correct my self, mutation is random, evolution is guided by natural selections

[macker993]

Evulution only accures when needed But! It is random selected into whom are most affected.

[TheRickylove83]

@macker993 well thats not a very good description of evolution.

[TheSocioTownUploader]

This is actualy a real species of fish called Exocoetidae, they are fish and havenothing to do with birds but the wings are like bug wings and when they are about to be eaten or attacked by another predetor they have the ability to hover above the water for a short period of time, the only reason why this clip is so amazing is due to the time it spent out of the water, that is one special fish!

[akaboy4life]

You have people who can run faster then other people? So can that be same with fish? Untill i see him like flying around my city and crapping on people then he is a bird

[WunderDoob]

SIMPLY AMAZING!

[llamzrt]

I caught one on film accidently for about 5 seconds

[kmartmask]

Oh yes, true science, such as the world is flat, the sun revolves around Earth, talking snakes, etc. Yep, God did give us true science. Fuck people like Newton and Darwin, they're just no good liars.

[1UTUBES1]

Flying fish will fly higher one day and become a brand new species through the process of selective evolution........

[MartinJWillett]

Why? If a flying fish can fly far enough to evade its predators now with a ten or twenty second flight why would it evolve the capacity to fly for five minutes? Evolution only occurs if there is a direct benefit for every step of the way. The selection pressure to evolve a few minutes worth of flight is not there so they will never get the opportunity to evolve the ability to fly for hours unless sexual selection kicks in to help them over that hump.

[miger2]

fuck face ur retarted its called a flying fish oooh its an alien retard

[xXKentoXx]

its called a flying fish and that's the name its nothing NEW or Mutated,its been on earth for millions of years.

[PR0GRAMMING]

It would be interesting if ocean birds swooped at those flying fish and tried to eat them. It may speed the evolution of their flying capabilities up by killing the ones that are not as good at flying as their rivals are; thus genes for improved flying capabilities (agility, speed etc) spread through the population.

[milvipes]

Frigatebirds regularly snatch them out of the air.

[davencuban]

i say its a evolved dragon fly

[fantasy0coach]

Those seagulls are deviant bastards, screwing around with fish like that.

[BruteForceAssault]

ha the best comment i've heard so far. thumbs up! =D

[milvipes]

Not denying the validity of the fact of evolution, but some idiots here are making it sound like the fish is an one-off freak of nature that just "morphed" yesterday.

Flying fish are so common in the tropical seas most seasoned mariners won't even give them a second look.

We need scientific knowledge to support the theory of evolution, not political fervor. Those ignorant fools are only weakening it.

[lakerskobe24mvp]

geological time scale is real

[josh28anhot]

is that real?

[fc007]

Yeah, they are I've seen some before.

[thruthem]

And so Allah said "Fly little fishie, fly!"

[OMGrenzhi]

and He saw that it was good.

[heyjuju]

Who? I mean what?

[pharos1]

empirical evidence suggests it is a very likely theory.

I tend towards evolution as opposed to a religious viewpoint because it seems to...erm....crap

[ateamga]

What you don't believe in burning talking bushes? I'll believe God was created in the image of an invisible God before I believe in observable evidence. Who really needs Science?

[Neobloodzero86]

one dumb comment i wish i new who you where so i could back hand your dumb ass who needs science come on man are you a fucking retard?

[PR0GRAMMING]

Well, if you do not need science (which is evidence based reasoning), stop typing on that computer of yours. Don't take antibiotics when you are sick. Don't drive a car. Don't look through a telescope. Just strip naked and run off into the jungle.
