[foe279]

hey riptor01 do u see him getting heart?didnt think so

[mithrandyr89]

take it easy with stingray. they are extremely dangerous

[GerardoOchoa]

@mithrandyr89 No, they are quite gentle and those at Stingray City are so used to people that greet you as puppies. Of course you have to be cautious but not afraid.

[marick626]

playing around with a moray eel eh? not a very smart lad I see. XD

[shrapnel200]

i wouldnt have the balls to do that to a stingray after Steve Irwin (may he rest in peace)

also, ARENT MORAYS POISONOUS!? (still pretty sweet, though)

[everybodylovesdonuts]

@shrapnel200 they say that Steve Erwin could have actually lived if he hadn't of just ripped the stinger out of himself...

[GerardoOchoa]

@everybodylovesdonuts not to mention that Erwin loved to show off bullying the animals. I snorkel and dive surrounded by stingrays and I've never have had any unpleasant encounter, but true, I don't pull them all around. In this video Emophiliac is being very gentle and not risking any dangerous outcome. You can gently touch both eels and stingrays provided they approach you first. Don't ever try to touch them if they are not aware of your presence of if they are acting aggressively.

[GerardoOchoa]

@shrapnel200 Morays aren't poisonous but could be aggressive at times. Timming matters. The same applies to stingrays. The Crocodile Hunter always treated animals roughly for the sake of showing off. Actually the surprise is he didn't have a major accident before the one that costed him his life.

[Emophiliac2]

@GerardoOchoa I've only run into Stingrays on the bottom a few times. The most interesting time was in the Galapagos, when I got lost and the visibility was really poor. I think that's why I was able to swim up to within 10 feet or so of a couple of large stingray. They kept their distance so I wasn't able to do anything like what is on this video.

[ilikeanimes1234]

last month, me and my mom went on a cruise to jamacia, grand cayman, and cozumel. we swam with stingrays in grand cayman! it was amazing!

[kichy1998]

It's always fun until the moray takes your hand off...lol

[filx96]

this is so cool, i was there in '98 too. i have similar footage of the eel and stingray. but my footage is still on VHS tape, don't know if its still workin, i dun even own a VHS player...

[DontWakeDaddy]

Man thats alot of fish.

[dymonicchronic]

moray eels are awesome. do you know if you can keep them as pets?

[HarlanAshmore]

sure can setup is expensive

[riptor01]

r u crazy???? they are reall dangerous creatures!!! i strongly disagree!!!

[Mastarde]

Yo no jugaría con el chucho XD Y con la morena mas de lo mismo pero temo mas al chucho.

[lawyer66]

im from here stringray city is the best

[Cty2]

cool awesome film there morays are my favs

[blanem94]

very good video.but it is dangerous to play or feed the animals

[lawyer66]

no it is not i am from there i have been on the dive charters they give u food for the fish yes there are risks but overall its pretty safe

[blanem94]

no disrespect but they could depend on you for food.they need to get thier own food

[Emophiliac2]

I should mention that the stingrays go back to normal feeding patterns as soon as the food runs out. I spent plenty of time floating on the surface, watching the rays feed.

[tvhooch]

I went there 2006!

[tweekums]

what music is that?

[PrayerWarrior4Him]

The eel's serpentine body structure is so cool! I bet that was fun!

[22HaloLover22]

wow that is so beautiful. you are one lucky guy! must have been brill filming that

[Gothicburdon]

that is sooo beautiful i just love moray eels

[baglervb]

Yay :). I have a science project on moray eels and this is just the kind of vid I was looking for. I'm going to play it when I give my presentation.

[TJhandford524]

i just came back from the grand cayman islands! i went snorkeling! Too many tarpon at the GCI tho! They are huge! they looked like sharks!

[OwenPikap]

I heart stingray city. This guy accidentally dumped the squid juice from the bucket we were feeding the rays with, and one of the stingrays sucked on my chest. I freaked out and clocked it and got back in the boat.

[porly666]

a stingray sucked your chest? Is your name Steve?

[Ishtiama]

Wait no, yeah. There is a moray eel. :D I only watched the first few seconds and then it was all! DOOOOOH :3 Kthxbai

[Ishtiama]

That's a baracuda you liar! D:

[MermaidGirl45]

The stingray almost seemed to like you touching him. It looks like you were petting him...like a cat! Didn't it still have the stinger though? Were you ever scared to do this at first?

[RowdyRonster]

That was a fantastic video!! I am deathly afraid of the ocean but videos like this show me things aren't as bad as I think in there. I was amazed at how tame that stingray was. After the Steve Irwin incident, I was beginning to think that those things attack if u got too close to them. U showed me otherwise.

[Candystripedshredder]

All Rays and Skates seem to enjoy having their undersides rubbed - Steve Irwin's mistake was sneaking up on one from above and behind. The Stingray only lashed out as a frightened reflex.

[KidKrackRock]

great video... this song is ill too... i am a million miles below the sea, drinking coffee and sitting on a couch reading my better homes and garden magazine.

[outlaw2747]

That was so amazing.

[PaintballisMyLIFE532]

ive been to that same place. isnt it the barrier reef near stingray city

[outlaw2747]

Not sure. All I know is that that place looks nice.

[xcrazyxbrunetteq]
