  • Fuck - just found out about penguins - birds that can swim - why did no one tell me about this :-)

  • 'fuck you! and just flies" wohohoho, WIN xD

  • This answers the age-old question posed by the Fiddler on the Roof. Apparently, the fish and the bird would have no probs whatsoever to "build a home together". Especially not when it's one of those amazing fucking flying fish and, say, a Kingfisher.

  • this is NOT evolution. God Almighty created flying fish for the pure lulz.

  • Nice vid, but keep the swears to a minimum, it takes away the point of the video..

  • @HealthyCabbie Nonsense. Take away the swearing and you take away the... well... artistic emotionality of the clip... :)

  • @Ameretat010 : Would it then be good to hear Sir David Attenborough cussing and swearing every 20 seconds?

    This video is good, better if it had less profanity, as free thinkers we need not to go down to such levels.

  • @HealthyCabbie Formal platforms are one thing. Private thoughts on a social network are a completely different matter. I really enjoy what you call "profanity". I'm not big on formalities and "proper form". A language deprived of cussing would be poorer for it. And there are countless top-tier intellectuals who have turned cussing into an art form. De gustibus...

  • @Ameretat010 : Would you let your 5 year old son or daughter watch this video?

    And then your 5 year old swore at you, what would your reaction be? There is a good reason for not swearing in this vid, it's fine without the swear words.

  • @HealthyCabbie My whole point was: The video isn't "fine without the swear words". I'd wager it never would have gone viral if ainulindale would have censored himself just because some 5 year old *might* be watching. That's what restrictions on videos based on user age are for, aren't they? Honestly, I wish you the best of luck when it comes to trying to keep children from swearing. That's a truly sisyphean task, if ever there was one.

  • @HealthyCabbie I'd let my 4 year old (well, he'll be 4 in 21 days) watch this with no problems.

    People being offended by swearing is ridiculous and I find swearing to be a great punctuation to help express excitement, anger, love, or any other emotion that is difficult to express fully.

    Remember that only 100-ish years ago the word 'pants' was taboo and could you imagine an English stereotypical adventurer on TV who didn't say "Blast".

  • @Quimbyrbg : Would you swear in front of your: Wife, Sister, Brother, Mother, Father and Grand parents?

    Would your conscience not bother you?

  • @HealthyCabbie

    You're being fucking silly.

  • @Ainulindale21 Now now, temper temper.

    Try winning this discussion without swearing, going off on one like you are tells me you're caving in.

    LOL!

  • @HealthyCabbie

    And typing "lol" in all caps and an exclamation mark is a far greater indication of the misuse of language than a good hard fuck ever will be.

  • @HealthyCabbie

    'Would?' Try 'do!' There's nothing wrong with profanity. If we all collectively started giving a fuck that people said 'fuck' too fucking much, we'd make some new words profane. You don't know how language works, do you?

    Would you let your chillins watch A Christmas Carol?  You know, when it was written, 'humbug' was profane. Even the Muppet and Disney versions have Scrooge swearin' up a storm.

    Stop being a twat about this.

  • @HealthyCabbie Absolutely; I would and have done :)

    Swear words are only words, it is the intent that makes the difference.

    You can be offensive without swearing, just as you can be pleasant whilst swearing like a sailor.

    I agree that it can sometimes be jarring and in bad taste, but that can be true of any sentence; It's all in the delivery, context, and intent.

  • I am now thinking of patenting a home for pet flying fish - tank on the bottom, cage on the top.  Being Scottish, I can see a problem with flying fish however. They'd be a bugger to deep fry.

  • hilarious, I finally found that someone reuploaded this masterpiece, kudos for that

  • @Cross8ow

    the "someone" in this case is the original creator ;)

  • @Ainulindale21 kudos for you!

  • HELLO 9GAGERS

  • I'm from the Caribbean so I saw these b4 and know about them well, even ate them... don't like the taste though, but his reaction was just so funny and priceless xD LOL

    ~love the reaction AND ENTHUSIASM

  • Oh my god I love you 0:52 "IT´S A FUCKING FISH!

  • Where you brought up in a cave? And neither are they flying so whats with the video.

    This is why evolution is dumb. LOL

  • Are you from america?

  • that's bloody brilliant... that's what it is!

  • @Ainulindale21, if you think that flying fish are crazy i would love you to do a vid on your view of flying squid, i recently heard of them and apparently they are for real!!!!

    Nature is constantly surprising us!!!!

  • Look at the little bastards go! It's fucking amazing!

  • Fintastic !

  • so if a fish falls from the sky....and strikes you down XP

    you now know they evolved a bit more...

    but didn't compensate for the land !

  • Hmmm....fish fly, insects fly, birds fly, mammals fly, dinosaurs fly  and evolution did it all with random mutations. WoooHoooo!!!

  • would you look at that! its a fuckin fish!

  • Birds didn't start on the ground.

  • @FBIPacker Coelurosauria, the dinosaur lineage from which birds arose, began as terrestrial beasts.

  • Thank you for sharing, like you I'm wondering why nobody has every told me this before. Your delivery is rather good too btw. Props to you.

  • I cannot make up my mind which of these 3 aspects of this video is the most awesome:

    a) the surprise and overflowing joy and excitement in his voice

    b) the awesome accent

    c) OMG THESE FISH ARE FLYING !!!

  • I love how excited you are! XD I've known about them for a while, so it's refreshing to hear someone so flabbergasted!

  • Must bein thebible somewhere no? Maybe right below vaccines ?

  • Wth is Waht-hir, Bloke? I love your DNA fish, don't care if you're fat or a ginger. Just don't be such a /b/tard. o.O

  • I heard about flying fish but never seen one in action, so I'm like O_O

    :-O

    FUCKIN RAD!!!!

  • You can find the original i tranlated here in youtube aswell

    /watch?v=cHgcTmU6-xY

  • your accent combined with your enthusiasm is hilarious

  • those things can kill a man.

  • That is pretty rad, Transformers!

  • Wait, you NEVER heard of Flying Fish before? I knew about them when I was 6. Jacques Cousteau the famous french Undersea Explorer and Documantarist showed them a few times on his show!

    But your entheusiasm is fantastic!

  • The whole "Fly Fish" thing is cool and all... But, im still going to remain sceptical about it until i see it my self...

  • @Chibihammer40k i suggest when u have time visit the philippines. =)

  • I must confess, I'm not a fan of videos where they swear so much, but the way you use it is, excuse the language, fucking brilliant. lol.

  • I was just rewatching this on your channel page and expanded the info to read it. At the bottom, where you are talking about your "ginger scrotum", YouTube decided to put the "less info" link right after it.

    I was like, "That's amazing! I was just thinking I wanted less info."

  • Funny as hell :D!

  • I learned of this when I was about 5 years old playing World 2-3 of Super Mario Brothers on my NES :).

  • wow... I've known that since I was five years old. Moomins teach you all sorts of stuff

  • Think the flying thing is awesome. How about the fish that can change it's sex? NOW THAT IS FUCKING AMAZING ^_^

  • heard about the "jesus" lizard?

  • a swimming pool+bird cage hahaha

  • PLUS, there's a "fish" with wings that CAN'T fly: and it's called a penguin.

  • you might enjoy flying squirrels, snakes and frogs too then :)

  • meh, show me one that can ride a bicycle ;)

  • Whats funny is the people who rag on him for not knowing about flying fish before. I guess they know everything and always have.

    P.S. they taste good.

  • Just found this channel because of Concordance. This video is a kick. Yes, your education was sadly lacking if you were never taught about flying fish. Aren't they marvelous?! Proof of the way mutations gain new uses and lead to new species. Do you know about mudskippers, fish who spend part of their time out of water? Many fish flip and flop from one mud puddle or stream cut-off to another. Mudskippers have fins that allow them to walk, after a fashion. Not as dramatic, but cool.

  • I hope nature pressures it to fly higher and further so it can attain true flight. Then in all the major animal domains, flight will have evolved (insects, mammals, birds (hurr), reptiles and then fish). Maybe in the past, some fish had already attained flight. but untill we find some fossils it's just wishful thinking. I don't know of any flying crustaceans although there is some sort of spider that can "sail" in the wind for short distances. (what is short on a spiders scale?)

  • reaction is epic :))))

  • You probably know ALL about them by now but in Barbados you can have them every morning for breakfast. I'm sure I've seen dried / shaped / painted skins of Flying Fish in shops out there that you can buy for a couple of dollars (like the dry Puffer Fish you get). Would make a nice holiday... But local artists just might not bother making them anymore.

  • 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!!!

  • i too had no idea this existed?

  • Your voice is very similar to Ricky Gervais ;)

  • It´s really toutching how euphoric you get.

    Maybe you should link it to philhellenes`s (in my opinion best) video "why didn`t anybody tell me?". Your video is the best example of what he ist talking about.

  • I enjoyed the enthusiasm. good stuff

  • Seen these little buggers, I've only ever seen them out in the middle of nowhere in the Pacific though.

  • It's 200 meters they can go bud... and guess where they go? Yep, right back in the water. If they hit the land and stay there, they're dead. So if evilution is true, there should be fish bone islands the size of Jupiter on Earth.

  • LOL, I was down in Cozumel, scuba diving, I had the opportunity to see the suckers in action, it was awesome. What was better was what was underneather, three black tip reef sharks. Sharks, possibly one of evolutions finest accomplishments.

  • The reason why you didn't know is because you are ging.... I MEAN British.

  • haha i want one

  • FLYING FISH ARE AWESOME I VE SEEN SOME ANDD THEYRE LIKE, A FEW CENTIMETERES LONG!!!!! (sorry for the bad spelliing) AND THEY FLY. AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Just so you know, there are birds who not only fly, they can plunge into and under the water, where they swim and stay under (fishing) for more than a minute. Then they get out of the water, and fly away. They're called pufins.

    Also, look up Flying Snake. If you haven't, I think you'll like that.

  • 1:27 FUCK YOOOUUU!! XD

  • Flying squirrels don't actually fly, they glide. A couple of other animals do that too.

    Planet Earth was an awesome documentary. As was Life.

  • @Crickett2814 flying mammals = bats

  • You do know there are squirels that can fly too right.

  • I think, technically, they're gliding fish as 30 seconds is considered a long time. Like flying squirrels who also glide. Beside the point though; what I should have said is "holy shitting jesus sticks"

  • its like the first time you eat ... fuckin ice cream or sumthin!

  • That's amazing. I've never seen anything like that before.

  • You think thats cool ... here's a bird with claws .... ON THEIR WINGS!!!

  • truth is stranger than fiction.

    A chocolate frog to the first person to name the animal which flies by JET POWER.

    (there really is one)

  • @LaughatNAZIs flying squid?

  • @rasmussen15

    The chocolate frog IS YOURS.

    I've actually seen this whilst fishing from a tinny.

    They were trying to escape a few dolphins which were , breaching and diving through a large group of squid.

    Hard to say for sure, but the squid were so closely packed I reckon the dolphins were also swimming circles around the squid to keep them compressed and panicked.some of the bigger/faster squid were getting a good 2 metres out of the water.

    This was just off the coast of Adelaide, South Oz

  • @LaughatNAZIs

    Is it the flying squid?

  • I caught these guys helping pilot a ferry off Cape Canaveral, and by caught I mean with my hands, while on deck, 'cause these buggers were jumping through the ferry.

    They taste like Baltic herring. Great with mustard, and before you get pissy with me about eating these beautiful creatures I was on the first leg of a 10,000+km trip so fishing was quite mandatory.

  • I knew about flying fish for many years, but I just had a moment like this yesterday. I heard about marsupials having two vaginas or two penis heads. I just...... I was like…… why the hell hasn’t anyone mentioned this?! This just blows my mind! So I googled for pics, but found very few :(

    Conclusion: Google is hiding this information from us! ;)

  • Ahhhhahhaaha! Fuckin' brilliant, mate. I want one too.

  • You took out the song after all my effort to identify it >.>

    I had to go upstairs and look through my CDs to refresh my memory.

  • Shit...in my country we learned about those fish in elementary school. If you'll get one you'll need a swordfish to to scare them into flying

  • I saw this on MSN Vid's and I tracked you here. The version on there is bleeped out. But this is fucking amazin! Keep it up man! ;D

  • I think I love you almost as much as the flying fish.

  • I know. When I first heard about these, I was like, "Holy Shit, something from Mario Bros. that actually exists. Too bad evolution wouldn't allow for bipedal tortoises that walk off cliffs. The walking off cliffs part might get selected against.

  • oh gee I like your response LOL~

  • lol Did you know there's walking fish? you have some that walk in the bottom of the waters, and you even have some that can walk on land and even breath similar to amphibian.

    EVOLUTION FTW

  • I just saw your original vid featured on stupidvideos(dot)com (although bleeped out)...Too bad the hits there won't show up here.

  • Awesome video! Found this video on msn video thing and I loved it so I found it on here too! Thumbs up!

  • How did you manage to go through childhood in the UK without encountering some mention of flying fish??

  • Stephen Fry says that the fish is not a flying fish because it does not "flap its wings" it glides therefor it is more of a gliding fish. =P

  • I had similar incidents about the wonders of science and biology. The later was about regular fish and how they extract the oxygen in water.

  • you shouldn't have deleted the original, dumbass.

  • If these fishes just had lungs their evolutionary path could take to them to the sky and really become flying fishes! Such a species would be sooo extraordinary! But I doubt they will evolve lungs any time soon.

  • @fuunguus Who the longer they need to stay out of the water away from their predaotrs, the more likely one of the will have random mutation that helps it survive and benefits the group in way that they can fly MUCH farther than they do now. That would be cool.

  • You are SO amusing. I have to show your videos to everyone!!  I really love your arguements with that Nepf weirdo and I love flying fish too.

  • Can anyone say "transitional form nearly on the level of a crocuduck?"

  • @kenandkids Not really, how the hell would a crocoduck survive?

  • 3F = FUCKING FLYING FISH!!! Nah man don't buy one just go and see them in a freedom life.

    Good Example of Evolution.

  • omg why did they remove it... best video ever :D

  • Man you could make commercials with this commentary :)

  • Don't look into squirrels.

  • @keithrockerboblewis FLYING SQUIRRELS!!!! OMG

    What about possums? Or Bats

    FLYING MAMMALS OMG

  • If they thought the original violated terms of use, won't they also take this one down?

  • I wonder if fish react like this when they see us swiming?

  • @EmmaDelamare best comment ever

  • They can fly higher than a fucking chicken anyday

  • 1:19 to the end = LAWLTASTIC!

  • Sorry no one told you about the fish. I just thought I should get in quick and tell you there are also birds that can swim underwater!

    Honest!

  • i love how you say Water at 56 seconds mad funny

  • The original made me cry from laughing and .... so did this!

    Awesome!!!

  • How a viral video "violated" the terms of use?

  • They aren't "flying fish", they're swimming birds.

  • i like the original better!!!! but it's stilll funny!!! hahahahahahaha lol =]

  • Oh dear....ahh I just managed to stop crying for a second to write this:

    First off - you sound exactly like one of my friends, and since I can picture him saying this it's even more hilarious ^_^

    Second - I can believe you didn't know about them. CAN. Unless you run into the scenario in a conversation, or playing Super Mario Bros (I asked how the fish jumped so high) it's fairly unlikely you'd look this sort of thing up.

    As you said - they're fish..and their fins are fucking wings! Awesome!

  • lol this is one of those things I never think to tell someone about :P idk why.

  • Mother of god. This is awesome.

  • Psssttt.......

    Dolphin's talk.

  • Flying fish=intelligent design.

    Obviously.

  • This is even better than the first version. The footage you use is so much cooler here.

  • Sometimes, there are things you just have to find out for yourself. Makes it that much more amazing :)

  • Haha, I can't believe you've never heard of these, they taught us in my school about them at about grade 4. But it is pretty cool.

  • oh man those youtube cunts. I kinda miss the flashing red letters "50 FUCKING METERS!!!!!" LOL

    awesome video man. you should put it up on reddit like I did the first time.

  • @AtheistKharm

    Heh, thanks for that, can't believe how many people came from there :)

    I'm uploading the original to a fileshare site should anyone want it.

  • @Ainulindale21

    Oh hey man, forgot to tell you. There are these fish, and they can fly. Just thought you would like to know

  • NOBODY tell this guy about platypuses!!! ;-)

  • @FordPerfect or birds with claws on their wings

  • WHERE IS THE ORIGINAL????

  • I killed it with stupid (read the description box)

  • Clearly this is the work of a magical intelligent designer.

  • @anglicantian Easy there anglicantian, it's just a youtube video. It is funny and all, but to call Ainulindale21 an intelligent designer, or magical for that matter, is a bit of a stretch.

  • @18deadmonkeys

    No, I mean the fish! Do you really think this ability came by via sheer chance?

  • obvious troll is obvious ;)

  • @Ainulindale21

    You're just ignoring the obvious fact of intelligent design in order for you to uphold your hedonistic lifestyle of raping goats and eating small babies. Designer is lord!

  • @anglicantian You only believe in a god so you can say it's the devil that's making touch little boys and rape dolphins. Just so you can ask for forgiviness and do the same crap over again.

  • @caligulaincarnate

    Oh, I'm sorry, you seem to be under the impression that I was actually being serious?

  • @anglicantian No, you said "eating babies" which is a dead give a way. But there are christians out there who think somehting along the lines of that, and wanted to post it for them.

  • @anglicantian No, you said "eating babies" which is a dead give a way. But there are christians out there who think somehting along the lines of that, and wanted to post it for them.

  • @anglicantian No, you said "eating babies" which is a dead give a way. But there are christians out there who think somehting along the lines of that, and wanted to post it for them.

  • @anglicantian

    I love it when people say "sheer chance." Unlikely is not an equal proposition to impossible. The unlikely happens everyday, the impossible never happens any day.

    That being said, I think you're a satire artist in the process of POEing the population. The use of "magical" gives it away. A real ID proponent stays away from several key words. For instance; supernatural, god, creationism, and magic.

  • @AxisAnalysis

    Aaarh, busted! But good analysis nevertheless.

  • Btw, in a few million years, these have a chance of becoming fully flying. Just imagine that. Where are those stupid creationists that are always looking for transitional species? These to me, I see them fully flying for longer distances in a few milion years.

  • I had no clue either. I thought flying fish were just the ones that sorta jump out of the water. I didnt know they had wings and crap.

  • silly fish you're a fish not a bird get back into the water .

  • I think this video is too short. I could listen to Ainulindale21 rave about these little fuckers for the whole ten minutes.

  • It'll fly out the pool and then flop on the floor :) fail fish.

  • I prefer calling gingers tampons. Just an fyi.

  • Dude, everyone's known about these flying fish. I've known about them since I was a child and read about them. But I guess that there are a lot of animals on the planet, can't have heard of them all I guess.

  • i think the other one was better

  • God is making up for penguins...

  • I hate to say it, but this cut is not quite as good as the original. The footage of the flying fish is too slow. It lacks the speed and energy the original had.

  • @rondus18 yep, he should upload the original too!! it's not as funny as it was before. just too slow

  • You have a point. Ah well, I'm sick of the bastards anyway ;)

  • Science has a way of delivering that profound feeling of wonder. Every day we can have those "first time having ice cream" moments if we take the time to stop and really look at reality for what it is. Imaginations do not compare, mysticism does not compare, and wishful thinking does not compare. Reality is awesome! Cheers!
