*nerdgasm*

[Punkylolita]

This is one of the best videos, I wish there's more deep sea videos :) so many new creatures and unknown ones.

[Rokz911]

[davidonspecialk]

[bwise8101]

[darkmagefire]

[BooGooNFlowoo4Evoo]

Is light harmful to these fish?

[BleedingSunday]

@Trickycandyfloss

Well.. the sea isnt filled with fish as you see in the movies.. Its empty, REAAAAALY FUCKING EMPTY!

[BooGooNFlowoo4Evoo]

@BleedingSunday True that the entire ocean isn't some artistic spectacle, but I wonder if some of the creatures are frightened by the running lights from the sub?

[Milennin]

@BooGooNFlowoo4Evoo They may be blind.

[BleedingSunday]

@BooGooNFlowoo4Evoo

I would see no reason why they would be.. The light are the last thing that well them the sub is even near them, and light doestn care fish

[DrAzizWalid]

[jinkhot]

[lolnumpty]

OMG lol!!! that dumbo octopus... so cute xD

[750billy]

are there any videos where they go lower!!1 my guess is because of the energy preserving features of the animals an how scarce food is i wudnt be surprise that there is a huge !!!!!!!! octopus like 400 feet in width an length an hides in the sand all the time an lets its camouflage tentacle snag watever it can get for it :D...creepy yet i want to see whats in the abyss so bad :D

[linkinparkundrground]

@750billy there's not enough food down there to support any massive creatures.

[ThamesOrIsis]

Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea, joy to you and me!

BTW: CitizenOvTheWorld, it's "of", and not "ov". What are you, from Transylvania or something?!

[lukedf452gr]

i wish humans had gills :L. We could conolize the ocean floor. Now that would be lush, like a real Bioshock :)

[ArticFox1030]

@lukedf452gr We would look ugly.

[Edmart3ROBLOX]

@ArticFox1030 Who cares?

Atleast we get to go down to the abyss and get to see the fishes we have never seen before!

Well it would be AWESOME if we find a megalodon...But extremely scary if it attacks us...Hmm i guess i thought it through...Oh well TO THE OCEAN!

[LocidPlaysCod]

Damn nature, you scary!

[BeatTheHeatNigga]

@LocidPlaysCod lol

[CitizenOvTheWorld]

[MrUtahutes17]

[omx15]

@MrUtahutes17 LOL YEAH

[BlueFoundatlon]

Im so fascinated about abyss!I cannot imagine how it feels to be down there.Too deep!

[kamkambyaping]

Oh lord! So deep! :):P

[surstroming]

look at all the sea floors, sooo lawly!

[minghan05]

I really hate all the excessive gushing by the presenter.

[dayman52]

he sounds like a chef

[SinaSama]

that octopus is soooooooo cute

[cree8tive]

This is truly educational, but I wonder what effect the light has on the examination of sea life. In other words, the seafloor is extremely dark, so the jarring bright white light probably stops the fish from doing what they would normally do. Would we see them in a more natural state (thus a more complete study) if you used infrared technology?

[420Khatz]

Bro these British dudes are cracking me up.

OH WOW THAT IS BEAUTIFUL. THERE GOES THAT DUMBO. WOW THAT IS EXTRAORDINARY.

[SinaSama]

@420Khatz i love their accent

[minghan05]

@420Khatz I agree. I think the british presenter is on some kind of crack. marvellous, extraordinary, absolutely beautiful...blah blah blah. excessive use of such hyperbolic expressions are jarring to the ears.

[dumoulin11]

car commercial before BBC documentary = FAIL



[Allosaurus333]

Please, some tell me da name of da macrourid species at 0:30, da chimaeriform at 1:00 n da fish at 1:40

[CrowbarSka]

I wish he'd stop saying they were "designed".

[JCeiver612]

@CrowbarSka you realize evolution is the process of designing a species to function in its environment right?

[CrowbarSka]

@JCeiver612 That's wrong. Evolution is the process is minor incremental changes, each of which is a small adaptation to a species' habitat survival threats and opportunities. There is no 'design' involved whatsoever. The word 'design' implies that there is a 'designer'.

[JCeiver612]

@CrowbarSka to people with the point of view as yours sure. But to other people who could care less what people believe and leave their mind open to words for what they are...just words. A Species designs it self through small changes. It just sounds like your more concerned about whether or not he believes in god rather than what hes talking about. You can say design or adapted but they mean the same to people who don't care about others religious beliefs. Like me

[CrowbarSka]

@JCeiver612 Well no because those words have specific, commonly-understood meanings, and the meaning of 'design' is not what you are describing. A species cannot design itself because it is completely oblivious to these changes and what they mean for future generations. Also, this is not a religious belief; it is a scientific one.

[JCeiver612]

@CrowbarSka i made the religious aspect of the comment towards you, not the video. Why care so much of his beliefs whether or not its scientific or religous. Humans Jaws are designed to move only the bottom half. But they evolved to this and so both are right. The evolution of it slowly designed it to work a specific way for a specific purpose. Evolution as an force is designing a species to work a certain way for multiple reasons.

[CrowbarSka]

@JCeiver612 I was also referring to myself. This has nothing to do with religion, except when the term 'design' is used. But I don't want to argue over semantics because you are just using that word to describe the same process. Your use of the word is misleading and inaccurate. Designing something implies that there is some kind of intention or greater goal. In nature there is no such thing; only cause and effect driven by the individual's necessity to survive.

[JCeiver612]

@CrowbarSka ill take the one sentence "I dont wanna argue about semantics" from this....because thats how i felt after i made the mistake of caring in the first place. Good day sir.

[missdonatella]

wow

[HeatherOfOz]

Is the light good for these fish that live in the depths?

[Jankunas]

0:01 skip the commercial.

[OriginalCoons]

we need to find out about the life deep on our own planet before we spend billions wondering if theres life on mars..

[Turfhousetv]

here is rare life on the earths surface check it out by clicking on turfhousetv

[TheSoundstalker]

oh, my! that is so lovely! *monocle*

[jessybubblz]

Ahahaha

"That is LOVELY. There goes that Dumbo..."

x

[DaemonLucius]

the deep see scares me...

[CubanBaby585]

woo.nice how deeps is that?

[Scorpac]

these commercials suck pretty hard

[EBOWARRIOR]

I wonder what they all taste like?

[DaFuckyouat]

I'm betting that they are mostly inedible because of either toxin compounds or exotic bacteria in their tissues.

[quiteobserver]

@EBOWARRIOR like compressed BigMac ;)

[EnterTheFlea]

2:15 lol potato with fins

[jubblyplank]

"there goes that dumbo..." lol

[koko544]

looks like my Jelly dolpfhins candy

[ownednoobsshit]

what is 1:28?

[dbstig]

i think it's a rednose cornetfish.......

[arenasification]

I'm a diver and the sea is the most fascinating and mysterious thing on earth.. I envy fish every time my oxygen tank is empty or hate that I can't dive as deep as I wish to go.. on the other hand it scares the shit out of me. it's a whole other world and we have no idea..

[wellyck]

this is not rare just hard to see

[himpllx]

Which makes it rare

[BloodyFlesh626]

Its annoying how the guy keeps saying*That*

[xenochrist15]

That that is... This extraordinary. That is, that is... That is lovely that is...

GOD DAMNIT! haha

[XxoxXCattyXxoxX]

Lol right! Hes a broken record. Well not broken just stupid. Lol

[hanaw79]

Scary deep...

[laughedtheboy]

buy the blue planet and watch this in full. highly recommended

[vitto]

1080p..please

[XmegaPresident]

Damn commercials....

[fuckitandfuckyou]

@XmegaPresident just push f5

[robotoaster]

@XmegaPresident , Without them youtube couldnt afford the massive amount of bandwith this site requires.

[makezmuzic]

beautiful blue

[alfok]

i prefeer call it Grimpoteuthis... dumbo octopus sound so ridiculous

[kebaosan185680]

impressionante

[thebobbyburrito]

where the hell is bigfoot?!

[jtefa56]

ouai c vrai javoue c vraiment impressionant

[nathanbilly592]

there are much more bigger things that eat blue whales like a snack in the areas where light is unable to penertrate an the pressure is so intense.one has to imgine the toughness of the creatures living down there

[dss103]

yeah wat is the name of the fish with the bulb on his head? i want to see that fish

[winstonabailey]

an angler

[sekz131]

me too!!

[ForgetTheLight]

One has to imagine if you're actually correct. Seriously, even though anything's possible, especially in the depths of the ocean, that's highly doubtful.

[luriomaxx]

Yeah, those beings are Cthulhu, Father Dagon and Mother Hydra

[y0user74]

Can't wait for disney to sue that species of octopus.

[xboxbobx]

hahaha! :P

[jibson2]

good one, its funny because the octopus cant afford a lawyer

[iloverain29]

damn. dumbo octopus... a cute specie

[omgnotyouagain]

hey the man loves his job

[Tinyoak2]

Lovely was said 5 times, they are "lovely" creatures until one of the cute ones bites an arm off.

[graviron]

i think "nice" was said more frequently than lovely?^^

[chicagocub1992]

For the first few seconds, I thought that this was animated.

[a6km]

how many times did he say lovely ?

[linkinpark489]

i want the dumbo octopus as a pet

[nimasadr]

lol 2 bad it will burst inside out when u bring it near the surface

haha

[linkinpark489]

yeah that would kinda suck.........

[nimasadr]

haha. but u gotta admiit it would look pretty cool.

[linkinpark489]

yeah it would

LMAO XD

[jonysuave]

i am a space fanatic, but shouldn´t we know ourselves first? deep sea is so unknown

[JavaSpitLava]

wanna reach my space?

lol its on myspace believe it or not?

[SgtKneecaps]

we know more about the surface about the moon then we do about our oceans

[NoMoreCheats]

@jonysuave space is more unkown that the deep see is...and im a space fanatic too...one day i want that my mom and dad watching TV see me on saturn! :O..it's abso fuckin lutely NICE...the black holes,milky way galaxy and THE GIANT EARTH that contents ALL THE GALAXIES ZOMFG! =O

[RatRippinReptileRage]

@jonysuave Space is as much a part of you as Earth

[Nicklan17]

@jonysuave yes I agree.We don't even know whats down there yet.

[ElendinCusPro213]

@jonysuave.

True but I rather want to know about space, what if there is planets that looks like Pandora? (my opinion)

[AlienMagi]

@ElendinCusPro213 do you know that name pandora has severally been used as a planet name? so could you state what you mean next time? And if you actually hope there are planets like in avatar you must be mentally ill.

[ElendinCusPro213]

@AlienMagi,

No I didn't know that because Im not a unsocial nerd as you, and yes I think it would be cool if there was a planet like pandora from Avatar, Go Worship your Aliens AlienMagi

[AlienMagi]

@ElendinCusPro213 I'm surprised you re actually 16 years old, because you sould like one of thoose teenage girls who think twilight would be cool. Except avatar was an alright movie, but you're still living in a fantasy like that. I've got a friend that wants pandora to exists and he's a fucking weirdo

[eatmyleftudder]

@jonysuave Last thing i checked i don't live in the deep sea.

[larune]

@jonysuave this is exaclty what top political parties, government officials and big businesses need to know...forget the moon...i want to know whats beneath the surface..what's 5-12000 feet beneath the surface

[tunkunrunk]

@larune maybe the thing ,the spaceship ,the meteorit or the laboratory that brought life seed to earth is still beneath the surface hidden from human sight . scientists should improve dramatically remote controlled explorator robots (long life batteries ,handling ability )

[1Solace]

@jonysuave no

[XpenANDpaperX]

@jonysuave maybe there r living prehistoric creatures on the sea floor :O

[OmgItsPieYum]

omg 1:52 the dumbo octopus is so cool!!!!!!

[mileyfan2004]

its kinda sorta cute too but yes it rocks!!!

[AznJaeLii]

2'15 Looks like a flying potatoe XD

[linkinpark489]

LOL

[dunstan5980]

its interesting that he keeps saying how each of the fish is designed to do a specific thing. Most videos on NatGeo would have said it evolved to be like that.

[victorisda69king]

just an oopsie.... everyone knowsScience doesn't allow design

[WhiteWolf4x]

Fishes isn't a word.

[icanbendsaws]

Actually, it is, and it is grammatically correct.

[WhiteWolf4x]

Well as far as I've known, I've been corrected when I would say "Fishes".

Idk you guys may have a different form but Fish is plural for fish.

[icanbendsaws]

It can be said either way. Both are correct. It's kind of like deer and deers; most people only use one form of the plural word, so the other form is not widely known to be correct.

[Soundfrequency]

Well that's very nice and all, but CAN you actually bend saws? CAN you? Can you really? REALLY can you?!

[icanbendsaws]

Yes, actually. I can. Can you?

[Soundfrequency]

No, I can't :<

[icanbendsaws]

That's really sad. I'm so sorry. D':

[minghan05]

@WhiteWolf4x I would say "fishes" refers to the different species, just as "peoples" refers to the various types of people, but we all know that "people" is used as a plural to refer to more than 1 person.

[WhiteWolf4x]

@minghan05

I commented on this a year ago. I want to know the steps you took to say to youself:

"I'm gonna read all of the comments for a rare life fish video on youtube".

Cuz that's just wacky.

[Heavyandgothic]

I love all those fishes that lives there.

[2girlsandahubby]

that was so awsome

[HawaiiScubaTV]

Beautiful!

[lumburgapalooza]

Gotta love British commentators.

Everything is so damned lovely... you really feel like they're interested in what they're talking about.

[poppalarge68]

I really enjoy watching rare aniamls from the sea...Thanks for this clip.

[leaves54321]

[realm213]

[Coolestguyth]

Ahhh the wonders of the sea.

[texas187king]
