Grunting fish reveal the origins of human speech

[emersondavis]

WILL SHE EVER SHUT UP????!!!!????

[johnwaynegacy94]

Evolution is fake! JESUS IS THE TRUTH!

[SixtehNien]

Why the f**k would I think about fish while I'm at a concert?

[Pooternackle5]

Why do christians and muslims have to constantly flood science videos to say that they are wrong, but then give no proof other than god or allah saying its not?

[JoseMR2k11]

this women speaks as if she knows what she is saying is the whole truth of human origins... she sounds so fucking stupid omg. she says this prove that all life that evolved from the sea and that this grunting is proof we came from them and we speak becuase they started it all.. fucking frustrating omg. i will never believe in evolution simply because it will never be proven as fact. it will always be theory. A dog will give birth to a dog every time. a monkey will give birth to a monkey evertime

[reallycoolguy121]

@JoseMR2k11

That's the thing... you don't "believe" in evolution. Either it logically makes sense to you or you suspend judgment until you improve your understanding of it.

[Takeshi357]

I'd think twice before trying to start a scientific argument with someone, in youtube comments, whose username contains the word "Jesus".

[TheAlertHusky]

SHUT UP AND LET THE FISH GRUNT!

[JesusGaveMeNewSoul]

MAY have is not the same as IS. ITS this thinking that has caused people to not be able to believe in God and receive ALL THINGS made known from Him... ANYONE who wants to know .. lemme know... I tried something to contact GOD for a month and HE came through ... little did I know I would soon see angels, Jesus 5 times and before seeing ANY signs... which I never asked for... being given the LIVING WATER from GOD.. all in secret, no church EVER... one on one FREE of charge. TIME + doing 1 thing

[doubleKlutch]

@JesusGaveMeNewSoul No. It is YOUR thinking that causes me not to be able to believe in God and receive ALL THINGS made known from HIM.

Only a church would teach you to shout pronouns like that.

Shouting pronouns is the first step toward brain washing. Reasonable, honest people don't need such tactics.

[yengo313]

what grunt?

[d0n77]

this might be able to be proven if we had data from when they started living or like most life it just seems like they all know what they are doing...its amazing how people claim the craziest things with such little proof..humans think they know but do they really???

[MillyVanillification]

@d0n77 So what are you advocating for? Having no thoughts? For you this might be hard to understand after a one minute video, but this doesnt mean that the claim is crazy.

What you dont know about is the thousands of hours of research necessary to get those findings. Why dont you use the internet to find out whats behind this micro-seminar here on youtube instead of posting ridiculous messages?

[d0n77]

@MillyVanillification im saying evolution has many holes and thats what they claim this video is about right?..its all in the title....i will write you in private since this will not hold my all my words and im not gonna flood this video with why i wrote what i wrote just for you to understand..i advocate for the reality or truth...that's all..i want people to know the truth...you must believe we came from monkeys since you didn't agree with me

[d0n77]

@MillyVanillification yeah..many hours of research in the wrong direction if your trying to prove evolution... only life creates life...for evolution to really be proven they will need to create life from no life as they have tried before and they failed horribly...evo only has pieces that hint we are of earth,but evo does not and cant provide how we got here..all life evolves right?well it seems not all prehistoric life agrees with that as it gets discovered..do you disagree?no thoughts?please!

[JonathanBruner182]

Those were some jacked up teeth.

[invaderzim133]

they didnt even show the noise it made how fucking pointless

[albedoshader]

You can hear the sounds the fish makes. But they are not spectacular. Replay the video and try to ignore the speaker.

[Pacober1]

its a short grunt

[twiggza]

something to think about at a concert? Who writes this stuff?? LMAO

[MrCanuck]

We did not came from plants but we share a common ancestor. Plants are from a different "branch" in the evolution tree. We are very complex creatures that evolves from... MOLECULES. Some replicated faster than others. Survival of the fittest remember? Do you have any idea what the probability of humans being here today is? I mean had one string of DNA molecule not replicate itself with a certain other cell... the probability is astronomical, like 1 in (9^^^^9^^^^.... <-- that many arrows^^^9...

[yengo313]

@MrCanuck dude it's actually 10^500 that we were able live in this perfect universe.

[devarsi]

Science treats us with the mushroom philosophy....they keep us in the dark and feed us with bullshit

[dutchDH]

so fuckin what?? horses have eyes just like us... doubt any of us came from horses...

[Prime2610]

Yes, but that we both have eyes could mean at one point we shared a common ancestor.

That was the point of the video.

[amidnightfire]

take THAT, christianity.

[MikeOldenmenger]

hahah nice one :D

[Dioxane]

It'd be nice if she would stop talking to hear it growl eh?

[RarewareLover]

JAWSUS SIGHTING at 0:08!!!!

[bustermk2]

I wanted to hear the fish grunt but she wouldn't shut up.

[JhnWalker19]

I breath gases like plants do, does that mean I evolved from a tree? NO, they make a bogus argument...

[NormanBatesIsMyMum]

Of course, but that doesn't rule out that you and the tree may share a common ancestor.

[adrastea99]

what do you mean evolved FROM a tree?

do you even know how evolution works?

[JhnWalker19]

More so than you, first of all, because two species posses similar traits does not mean they share a common ancestor,also the science is contradicting, it is similar to Big Bang theorists who ignore the laws of thermodynamics that state such a reaction could only result in a more basic compound but it somehow created complex DNA strands? Shut your ignorant mouth, your a sheep who only thinks he knows how the world works

[adrastea99]

I would like to quote you:

"I breath gases like plants do, does that mean I evolved from a tree?"

That basically says you know nothing of evolution

"the science is contradicting"

What part is contradicting?

"laws of thermodynamics that state such a reaction could only result in a more basic compound"

Explain how thermodynamics contradicts the big bang theory. Then explain what the big bang theory has to do with DNA

I am not a sheep, I am a human

[fureddosan]

@adrastea99 "I am not a sheep, I'm a human", my new msn quote :)

[dannyswearinhisheart]

Wow. You used quite alot of commas there didn't you? :D

[Dahzbog]

Jhn your a retard, you started off strong but your finish,

"Shut your ignorant mouth, your a sheep who only thinks he knows how the world works"

was weak and unwarranted. So i say to you now,

"Shut your ignorant mouth, your a sheep who only thinks he knows how the world works" So how did that feel?

[DarkProject]

I understand where your coming from jhn, but Big Bang is not an answer to everything, Scientist try to define truth as by using the most possible approach. they cannot find a definite answer for something.

[albedoshader]

Science is not about truth. It's about finding explanations for observations.

[CarcassBroomstick12]

umm, no...just about every animal makes fucking sounds

[konikula]

funny ending :)

[mindstormsabrewin]

So, can I teach my fish to curse now?

[tetranoob]

Was that Dave Matthews of the Dave Mathews Band at the End?

I always thought there was something fishy about that guy....

and also Hootie and the Blowfish

[dbohls]

Ba doom. Psshhhhhhhhhhh.

[UncleKennybobs]

I won't be thinking about this next time I'm at a concert.

[Gramra]

I'd piss myself if a fish started growling at me.

[PoliomanGamer]

i'd piss myself if a fish started yelling at me.

[rxvexe]

Same

[XxGreenDayGuyxX]

Hahahaha same :P

[scullyy]

blasphemy!

[TheRealBladeRunner]

lol

[lost4lag]

Lol, I do hope you joking :)

[scullyy]

so do I

[JohnDeBunkTest]

hmmm, Speach centers in people and fish are in the same brain region ... So the organization of our brain speech center dates back to fish.

Interesting finding, logical conclusion. The working of our brain becomes clearer.

[Bokensewins]

yay in 10 million years fish will speak :D

[patio87]

Um, that's not really how it works.

[Zoiros85]

Well we are decadence of fish so.. they already speak.

[Kujien]

More like 360 million years :)

[alex3914]

Maybe they will evolve smarter to avoid our traps. Maybe in a million years the smarter ones only survived because we kill the rest of their population and we couldn't go under the water because it was their territory and we had to wipe them out to get access to the water but the people of the government agreed that there should be a peaceful way to do that ETC,etc. Anyone have any ideas for the title of my book?? (Its how my books gonna go....)

[josephperera]

Why not call it "Wonder Under"

[alex3914]

LOL Its not a rap song though :) A lot of people die in my book , I don't think it would be a wonder..hmmm lol thanks

[tetranoob]

Fish already speak, theyre called Humans :0)

[ryu8888]

How the hell is that supposed ot make any sense...

[LittleTruckingBozo]

Thats pretty cool.

[alex3914]

It makes sense but this is what you call a theory.

[liz1060]

Even proven statements are still theory. This is what you call a hypothesis.

[Zoiros85]

Yes.. And that's important.

[Kujien]

No this is not a theory. This is a hypothesis. Theorys explain facts. There is a difference between scientific theory and a general theory.

[alex3914]

Thanks,very interesting. So now that wer'e looking for the origin of our voices why don't we find the origin of our amazing immune system so that we can improve it.

[teemuruskeepaa]

These young adults of NewScientist are eager to be accepted in the scientific community (or scientific journalist community), and try to make claims, instead of merely asking. It seems that these people are quite unprofessional.

[jpttech]

This is what you call a hypothesis - not a theory

[rahgz]

This, is neither a theory nor a hypothesis, and these guys have nothing to do with being accepted anywhere. They are repeating the latest publications on the most renown scientific journals,

[ajani57]

Silly creationist, when will you learn? Theories trump facts. Theories trump laws. Theories gather. They gather a bunch of facts, laws, observations, etc. to explain something BIG. Saying 'just a theory' is like saying 'just a royal flush.'

btw, the above video is proposing a hypothesis. Learn the jargon. Thanks for playing.

[recoordant]

that's interesting, thanks.

[orangelixir]

Yeh, I'll be thinking about that for sure at a concert lol

[ultimatelights13]

nice
