  • if you see the end its sad

  • its spongebob

    

  • When i look at this thing, goosepumps came out.

  • Why didn't it sting him??

  • Nice thing to do

  • they're pulling it by its eye holes D:

  • i never knew they were fish

  • Why didnt it sting him ?!?!?!

  • this is def HUUGGEEE!!!

  • Hand me the syrup!

  • Humans are so cruel.

    I hope aliens capture them and do the same.

  • @jgbloyd Becaus you are not human then? It is important recearch dude...

  • @LoOpEddy Yes, in the name of research, all the more reason to experiment with humans.

  • @jgbloyd Starting with you? Not many people are willing to back human experimentation. If you think experimentation shouldn't be done on animals, then the only reasonable thing to do would be to volunteer your own body.

    These people aren't trying to make it suffer. They are trying to better understand it. People all have different ways of harmonizing with nature. Some people find harmony when they can understand it better. It's a natural interaction: for humans, to, are of nature.

  • @JohnnyRadman I do experiment on myself, already. I prefer being the lead scientist on studies of myself.

    If I dislike the methods used by others on others, it is illogical to conclude I should volunteer myself to those same experiments. Check your logic.

    I never said they were merely trying to make it suffer. Check your English.

    Appeals to Nature are fallacies. War, rape, murder are all "natural"; does not make them ideal.

  • @jgbloyd If you are going to advocate human experimentation, then arguing you should force it on others makes you just as cruel as them. I was saying if you actually believe human experimentation is the way to go, you should advocate for it yourself: I didn't realize you meant to use it as petty vengeance.

    You said they were cruel. Cruel implies mal intent.

    If you realize they weren't trying to make it suffer, why willingly make them suffer for their ignorance? That seems more cruel.

  • @JohnnyRadman Those who speak of "animal cruelty" in regards to experimentation do not mean to say experimenters have bad intentions or act cruelly just to be cruel. Thus, you're changing the dialogue so that you can argue against strawmen with false intentions.

    My wish for aliens, in their own search for knowledge, to experiment on humans without regards to human feelings was a rhetorical device to induce empathy. Apparently, empathy doesn't come easily for everyone.

  • This iz big

  • 0:27 to 0:33 thats what she said

  • i loved how he is says "its a monster" well wat u expect a 1 foot long stingray

  • Yeah, rock on for putting the fish back. It really shows valuing the fish's life more than personal achievement or bragging rights. Although I was disappointed about not weighing it, I was very glad to see the good judgement.

  • How in the Hell do you catch something like that!!!!!!!!!

  • WOW under water flying carpet!

  • @TheGhostbuster5000

    I CAN SHOW YOU THE WOOOORRRLD.

  • Holy Shit!

  • "It's a monster!"

    ...It's actually a Sting-Ray.

  • @BradMathiowetz1 When he said "It's a monster!" he was talking about the SIZE. He's NOT calling it a MONSTER. -_-

  • im watching this cuz i got stung by a stingray....thumbs up if thasts y ur here

  • wow

    

  • Thank you for letting the ray go when you needed to. To many ppl would rather kill it than save it.

  • If I was that crane driver, i'd be pissed!

  • its funny how they aplaud at the end after accomplishing nothing at all and no proof of it being the biggest

  • "I don't know how much this fish actually weights, I just know this is one big motherf***er"

  • CRIKEY!!!!

  • they are fucking the ray, thats how it got pregnant!

  • anyone else see that condom he had in his had 0.o

  • freshwater? WTF?!?!?

  • @kbone390 there are fresh water sharks too you know lol

  • i bet that host is a faggot

  • omg aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaa scaryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy­yyyyyyyy

  • what a beautiful creature 

  • They looked like Pikmin when they carried it to the pool lol

  • they picked it up with a radar!

    stingray is like FUCK, I SHOULDNT HAVE EATEN ALL THAT MIRACLE GROW!

  • Seriously, something that big you dont catch, you just get lucky

  • Get stung by this && your ass is grass.!

  • @JayBrodieBro a whale gets stung by this and its ass is grass, no joke

  • I wish people would leave the poor things alone...

  • I want to punch it

  • YO WHY ARE YOU HURTING THIS THING? DON'T TELL ME ITS FOR SCIENCE/ THE BABIES WOULD BE BETTER OFF IF YOU DIDN'T DO THIS. WHY DON'T YOU GIVE MICHAEL VICK AND DICK CHENEY A NATURE SHOW.

  • @dougerber Sometimes SCIENCE, requires sacrifices!

  • @dougerber Dude, take a pill. They put it back in the water and didnt wait for the crane because they were concerned with the stingrays well being.

  • we're going to do an ultrasound to see if the babies are alright.

    the crane is still half an hour away.

    good job on planning ahead jackass.

  • Here a simple method for scale that fish with that pool tank. Measure how many gallon of water reach 1 inch or meter , then after the fish get in the pool tank , how far it raise. ;)

  • @TheKoreanMV Not bad, but that would only provide volume. Density would need to be considered.

  • Its almost as large as my d*ck....but mines is bigger :3

  • I will defintley not sleep again

  • I'll never sleep again!

  • kill it!

  • What the Tale Was the body to tail ratio of a regular sized sting ray. ITS TAIL WOULD BE HUGE!

  • 00:27 Thats What She Said xD

  • Uggh you "let it alone it's part of nature" yahoos are annoying. XD They're not really doing anything to it and they put it back. They caught a large stingray to study and it was "the largest stingray". No one seems to be bothered when we view that we HAVE the facts after the study was undergone. We're just like "Oh, cool info". Well dayum. How'd they get the info!? They did it by shooting it in the head and putting it back in the water AFTER shaving all it's skin off. That's what they did. XP

  • they were using the eyes as handles?!!!!

  • @CapeCodSkater no its basicly the only bone on the animal are the large "gill wholes"

  • time is running out for getting her weighed for record books? YOUR GONNA KILL HER JUST TO FIND OUT HER WEIGHT? btw. "were gonna see if this pregnant fish is alright with an ultrasound" idk bout you guys but i dont think a pregnant woman would be alright if she was lifted up by her stomach.

  • @punx2204 That's a pregmant WOMEN. Shaped quite differently. I don't know if you aw the whole video before commenting, but there's a reason they were "running out of time". They would eventually have to put her back in the water by a certain time, which they DID.

  • @Axxidous Pregnant stingray not women even as sneaky and slimy some women act there is a difference between stingrays and women.

  • @Axxidous Pregnant stingray not woman even as sneaky and slimy some women act there is a difference between stingrays and women.

  • @valstar1000 wait, you meant to respond to punx2204 right?

  • would its weight have counted as a record? since it was pregnant, doesnt that mean your weighing more than just 1 fish? just wondering

  • @xtr3mechin4 They probably have a way to differentiate the mother's weight with the babies'.

  • damn nature you SCARY! with your pancake lookin fish

  • @mattcrack44 Lol!

    shit nature is SCARY!

  • @mattcrack44 Damn trolls, you so unoriginal!

  • it must suck really hard to be pregnant and be disturbed like that just for amusement. Because world record or not, in the end it's all for our amusement anyways.

  • 1:07 looks like a giant pancake

  • Leave the poor thing alone, jeese

  • They act like they're being so gentle and careful with it... But it just looks like they're killing it.

  • Leave em alone!

  • i'd blame whoever made the crane for making it slow as fuck

  • Leave nature alone. it is that simple.

  • would that technically be 4 freshwater fishes? wouldn't the record be affected by that?

  • what a beautiful animal!

  • nope saw a way bigger one i went fishing with my family on a bridge and this guy caught this big sting ray it was way bigger than that that stingray is about big as 2 persons but the one i saw was so big it couldfit every one on the bridge on its back but sadly the guy had to cut the line or his rod would break or hed get pulled in the water

  • It's nice that someone realizes that the fish's life is worth more than killing it and getting it weighed for the record books.

  • i love how they do the same thing as animal planet's "river monsters"

  • leave it the hell alone

  • Next time you're in a lake, just remember that thing could be swimming around

  • its weird when u touch them they fill slimy

  • 1. The babies would make her heavier and 2. You don't fuck with the pregnant. Greedy asshole, wanting to weigh her.

  • koolz lol

    

  • i don't think that's a STINGRAY its a SEA MONSTER!!

  • holy crap tats big

  • WOAH DATS CREPPY LEAVE NATURE ALONE

  • Good for you for letting her go..

  • therer are huger ones, he was loooking for a bigger one but got this one look up eagle sting ray! its huge!!! o-o

  • world's largest stingray?

    Asian Freshwater stringray are the LARGEST freshwater FISH in the world...

    record was estimated at around 770 lbs....

    regularly caught 250-400 lbers...

  • @AceofDlamonds no its like the forth biggest fresh water fish look it up

  • @josh123666

    oh really mr expert? show me proof of records....

    even without record sizes,....this stingray still tops the charts in average weights.

  • @Airgunhead1234 That's quite possibly the worst thing I've heard all day.

  • poke the eye balls

  • Holy shit!

  • wow... i caught a big fish....but not that big....i would be scared to touch it...

  • ohh its a monster look at the tail

  • Holy shit that thing is huge!

  • . . . . Damn. Im scared sh*tless of that o.o .

  • DAYUUUM!!!!

  • OMG, I'd kill it. i wouldn't let anything that scary live regardless of whether they are rare or endangered. I know I'm terrible.

  • They aren't carnivores. stay away from them, and you'll be fine.

    oh btw, the're are more freaky things out there than this ray.

  • @HyphysWives You'd kill it because it scares you? ><

  • thats retarded. Who cares if it deid. I t could have been a world record.

  • Comment removed

  • lol i have tht swimming pool

  • is that its eyes they were using to pull it out of the water?

  • Would've laughed my ass off if it came back frolm the river during the end and stung the shit out of someone.

  • @Ghoghag

    Oh yeah me too. this little boys in the photo it may have shot through there veins in nano seconds killing them dead instantly.

  • Sea life is beautiful

  • 12 little GIrLy men.. you should have had some big Strong TEXAS born and bread Cowboys who are Latino, Black, and German.. Then you would have gotten it in there with only like 3 or 4 REAL men. Those doggone Girly men cant lift nothing. I know Women who eat GREENS, CABBAGE, Black Eyed peas and spinach they can lift that little fish and more. your boys are weak. ohhh its heavy.. it wasnt like it was a WHALE. you would thought they were lifting SHAMOOOOO

  • @WonderWomanFan4life

    shut the fuck up, no one asked for ure opinion u dumb tool,

    meatheads these days!!

  • @bunchie94

    Why do you select me from everyone? I have a right to my opinion. Those are TINY men and apparently you must be one. I am sorry. EAT your spinach so you can aspire to grow big and strong like POPEYE or at least the ROCK. Not everyone can have BIG MUSCLES and Bother a helpless animale when it is not even bothering YOU. what was the point? Who cares how big it is? Why did the stinger KILL the Crocodile Hunter, and this BOZO had stinger in his hand and lived? Was it a Cover up

  • leave the goddamn thing alone. :(

  • wow thats huge BUT ive seen a MUCH MUCH BIGGER ONE it was held here at the LONG BEACH AQUARIUM in California here in Long Beach and that thing was the size of on adult it was just sitting there not moving but it was super big ill never forget that one

  • ufo fish

  • where is the stinger?  is this common here? interesting

  • @subzero2039 dude tht aint the eyes its the air hole look at this 0:48

  • @DAR8763 i still think it;s the eyes but ill go by what u said
