Thats amazing!!! I love fruit bats! They look like mini bears with wings.

[theunholycrown666]

Wow that is immense. Bats are amazing. Cute in their own way.

[zachoxley]

They just opened up the biggest produce area in a super Target a mile away from there. That's the reason they're all jacked up!

[Pettetje]

''But they all end up at one plays'' because the moon was on the background, I started to get weird thoughts.

[lilsm555]

[tight686]

BBC gets some of the most amazing shots.

[MudHut67]

who would dislike this?

[Toxicdude12]

Hey Pass me that apple * THROW*

Dammit ._.

[Minoraptor]

well thats one species that doesn't need to worry about extinction

[Rustpuke]

@Minoraptor

Unfortunately great numbers don't always protect against extinction. Look up the case of the carrier pigeon.

[xcorsary]

@Minoraptor sadly, not true...

[jhazmarie18]

whoaaaaa its so beautiful!!!!!!

[lovefram]

I would love to see this in real life. So beautiful

[petrus4]

@lovefram I have seen some bats in real life. I was very lucky.

[amilraja]

@petrus4 , lucky to see some bats ? where do u live ? arctic ? just kidding :)

[Buddyb309]

@lovefram Imagine the bat poop you would recieve.

[Bwuhahahaha]

[MedusasFineEye]

‹(•¿•)›¨¯¯¨¨˜"ª¤++++++++++++++­­++++++¤ª"˜¨¨¯¯¨‹(•¿•)›

[djspiman]

Start this video and then right at the 2 second mark play Paranoid - Dansette Juniour. Best mix of song/video ever.

[headlessmule]

Those bats must be tasty....

[Neanerthebeaner]

that's amazing...do they mate there?...why do they gather? I wonder what leads them to that spot.... :)

[Rabbishlover]

One day, near halloween, the sky was FILLED with some kind of flying animal. Since they didn't flap their wings that fast, I must have mistaken them for birds. It filled the sky for over an hour miles around. They must have been BATS, then! This was on Long Island, NY.

[KaiMasaruArai]

i think that island is where batman lives

[Ypipable]

May their wing into two million.

[melilycui]

Woww

[MissJosephinie]

when he said " 1 meter across" and " 10 million" my mouth went straight open :O

[mskater5]

Thats about how many zubats i find in a cave every day

[Watonlyz]

@mskater5 yeah they are the most irritating pokemon ever. spent most of my money repelling those batards =/

[hihi0]

Perfect Vampire night.

[SEECH7]

Zambiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

LOL

[ipwnurs]

Must be Dracula's birthday.

[angelofdeathx9]

amazing !! ^_^

[waboy23]

Now you know where the expression "hung like a fruitbat" comes from... lol

[goalsformary]

good show!

[mosestheleader25]

Krylls!!!

[HHamanyy]

there are 10 million of them here ... HOW DID U KNOW..?! fucking bullshit

[killerfish02]

bats + full moon= creepy yet cool

[scrooge79]

freakin' unbeliaveble...cameraman should be Nobel winner...

[Repudation]

Batmannnn

[Wintella]

O_o Stunning! Beautiful!

[carmelcoveredsk8rmop]

1:23 ...just stunning

[stoked4snow]

"shit john, we shouldve brought an umbrella..." lol

[MoonChildMeko]

I find this to be enchanting! I ♥ bats.

[thoseofmiddlearth]

out of nowhere comes a helicopter

[joeboomer69]

Wow, 10 million bats with 1 meter wingspans in one place; that would be something to see (and unfortunately smell). By the way

crazysoccerman14, they're fruit bats, not vampires.

[crazysoccerman14]

I wonder how much blood it takes to keep all those bats alive

[matte5299]

None, they are fruit bats.

[jigsawjellybeans]

You, magical poop are a douche

[MarcusLeve]

Bird+Rat=Bat

[magicalpoop]

Shit I could throw one rock really hard and kill like 20 bats.

[xPsychoticxFreakx]

wow, that's just epic.

[xhannahxonealx]

fruit bats are adorable!! ^^,

[PauloGCS]

In Portuguese from Brazil:

Dez milhões de morcegos!

O título realmente diz tudo. Sobre o maior ajuntamento de morcegos ao ar livre no mundo, esse que diariamente acontece em um remoto pântano da Zâmbia.

Para obter as fotografias do espetáculo, uma câmera da BBC percorreu a área (equivalente a dois ou três campos de futebol) transportada por um balão de ar quente. Um helicóptero não conseguiria voar no local durante a revoada de tantos morcegos.

[mdm3boi]

im so impressed with the life series, its amazing, every bit they show is pure quality and now i have the box set :)

[AllYouHearIsSwoosh]

i wonder how cool it would be if i threw an apply in the middle of that.

[Beeferman55]

freaking awesome batZ man. Beats that movie...dark night n-e-Day

[Gusa1980]

That is correct. No one actually counts them. There are methods of estimation, but the results they give usually look more like "between 6 million and 18 million" with a certain confidence limit. So it would have been more accurate to say: "there are over X bats".

[kevinbruff]

UFOIST - No one counts them.  There are averages taken from bats flights by counting how many in one square foot (or something similar) of space and then using math to get a approximate number.

[acerb45666555]

i love them! a vegitarian fox with wings! :D

[RENN357]

more like a rat with wings...pretty horrible creatures...

fascinating none the less :)

[Nyarlathoteplol]

Not horrible. Bats are pretty docile and friendly creatures, compared to most wild animals. Only problem is that some of them can spread diseases.

[littlesparrow]

You are a pretty horrible creature.

[UFOIST]

Fantastic film work as always from the BBC. I'm a great fan of the eminent Sir David Attenborough but his claim that, "There are 10 million of them here" is a bit optimistic inho - who counted them?

[Golfgtiguy]

Nice clip . You are certainly on the ball .You had this up a week before the bbc showed it ! How did you manage that ?

The whales "Heat run " was on that episode too that was excellent too.

[dimonzozo]

Рюссськие в коментариях. Сразу видно. Всё-то у них срёт!

Видео отличное.

[Happyanand69]

Incredible..

[MariaZotovA]

Очень красивое видео!

[wefiyhigh56]

looks like Batman called backup

[TotalRapidFangirl4]

That comment you just made was 100% priceless.

YOU DESERVE A SMART COOKIE.

[sabrinagrlx09]

@wefiyhigh56 Haha =]] Yurh Really Funny!

[petrus4]

@wefiyhigh56 They are beautiful animals. :D

[GTManiK]

Вот так вот кто-то запостит на дёрти - и сразу срать набегут...

[DUDENOFF]

И как же эта вся летающая орда СРЁТ!!! :( ) Летит и срет! Летит и срет! Сцуко, не дай бог под такую раздачу попасть.

[justshadow24]

хуясе о_0

[Mazina84]

Very impressive

[thatiamdisco]

David Attenborough - Best narrator ever

[anotherutubeuser8]

Wow very cool video... its unreal seeing so many at once, especially known the size of them!

[Annabellemiss]

awsome

[duiker22]

Cool...but I thought Bracken Cave in Texas, USA, was the largest collection of mammals (and bats) in the world? 20 million or so. I would be curious to know...

[camilleisrael]

Wait a second, their wings are up to A METER ACROSS? Those are some honking huge bats.

[hanab]

Just amazing... What beautiful cinematography!

[somacoyote]

bats :3

[Bragoon0]

That is creepy. I would love to see that live

[sstair]

The lightning shots are amazing.

[naikrovek]

a similar (if not the same) species lives in Australia. The fights they are nightmare material for an American visiting.

[RalphBalderbendimen]

I love bats.
