Welcome to Natural World Facts. I'm Leo, a Marine Biology undergraduate student with a passion for the natural world, a fascination with the deep sea, and a dream of working in the field of science-communication. This channel began as a passion project when I was 8 years old. Now, more than 10 years later, I'm still releasing fortnightly videos documenting a number of natural history topics, and I invite you to join me on my journey to discover all there is to know about our incredible planet.
Be sure to subscribe to be notified when I release a new video, and most importantly, enjoy. I hope you learn something new :)

Written, narrated and edited by me, Leo Richards. This channel (Natural World Facts) is my passion project dedicated to exploring the wonders of the natural world and telling stories that inspire! This film is unusual in that it is my first piece of contract work, commissioned by Schmidt Ocean Institute, who have kindly given me permission to post it here on CZcams - so the style might seem a little different to usual, but I had a blast making it. The film premiered at the Royal Institution in London. See the film's outro for full credits. Thank you to everyone at SOI who recorded the footage, gave interviews, piloted the ROV, kept the ship running, and managed a boat-load (literally) of media and footage to make this film possible!
Schmidt Ocean Institute (SOI) is a non-profit oceanographic research foundation that has been pioneering deep-sea research and discovery since 2009, on board their old vessel RV Falkor and their new RV Falkor (too). Their remotely operated vehicle (ROV) SuBastian is equipped with a suite of sensors and a 4K camera that has illuminated the depths and live-streamed dives around the world. Most footage shown is filmed and provided by SOI. Check out their website: schmidtocean.org/

They’re on a mission to protect biodiversity in troubled ecosystems around the globe. They're on a mission to bring back endangered species, clean up our oceans from plastic and rewild entire forests to give them back to nature.
If you want to get to know them, check out their work here where they’re protecting dolphins from noise pollution from tourist boats that are destroying their acoustic habitat.

I shot this on location in the UK's New Forest National Park, a haven of wild heaths and ancient woodlands, sheltering an oasis of wildlife.

Exploring life in the deep-ocean midwater is a long-standing challenge for deep-sea research. The region between the surface and sea-floor, a space that constitutes the largest most biodiverse habitat on Earth, remains poorly understood due to the limitations of sampling its gelatinous, fragile inhabitants. Robots in the Deep documents recent innovations that allow midwater animals to be sample...

How is this channel not being given awards for absolutely beautiful outstanding content? This is written and filmed beautifully as well as the symphony playing. Absolutely amazing ❤
Holy ads...and this video took me to a 3rd party website
He scares me, but I have to know more because no one knows anything for 100% sure, and I love a good mystery.
comfort video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
your videos are always the best
Это невообразимо) Это удивительно, спасибо!)
Respect to you brother shark ❤. I have to say that we humans are so arrogant, to think that we are above such a majestic creature of our wonderful life filled earth. Thanks for the video.
Imagine if humans found a dead cosmic being and built a civilization around it
This is prime material and I thank you for sharing!
👍
love the voice!
Way too many ads, you greedy content creators are ruining YT
7:09 a wild Parasect appeared! [Catch] [Bag] [Swim Away!]
I have learned what I can from the algorithm, then I see one of these videos, and I know I’m gonna be up all night fascinated Thank you🌊💙🌪️
Absolutely stunning documentary. What a lovely find!! Thank you for sharing it with us.
not very thrilled to know there is a emerging deep sea mining industry
Nature is flexible in ways our puny human brains can't understand, yet we still try to manage everything. Leave well enough alone.
So the deeper they are the bigger they get image we find deeper part of the ocean 🤪and see a bunch of ocean animals that are huge 🤩that would so cool😎 to see but scary at the same time 😰
I have an extreme fear of the ocean so rock pools quickly became my favourite. I get to see the ocean in a safer way and see but a snippet of life that makes its whole.
Ah! Leo you are truly amazing and so flipping lucky! I love your work, it fuels me.

Imagine du lässt dich treiben und Schwimmst voll in die rein😂😂
Fascinating journey! 'Ocean Watch: A Tale of Deep Sea Exploration' takes us on an incredible adventure into the depths of the ocean. A must-watch for anyone fascinated by marine life and exploration! 🌊🐠
What song plays at the 29:30 minute mark?
"nightmarish monster" Leave Squidward Scissorhands alone 😭
"Vampire Squid from Hell" Is cute and *eats literal shit*
I sat down to fall asleep and found your video on whale falls by accident. "Perfect" i thought, "something nice and boring with a soothing narrator to fall asleep to." Then i got invested and had to know more. 3 videos later i now know more about deep sea creatures than i ever have in my entire life, and yet am not asleep lol thanks bro, i love it
I know a lot of the content being shown on this channel but never have I heard a voice more perfect for this type of beautiful content ❤ absolutely lovely ❤❤❤
After viewing it's aggressive behavior, it is my understanding that it is now possible that the squid may actually be a formidable predator.
Amazing video ! I was searching for informations on how the environnement of species could module their size, and then I stumbled across your video that really helped understanding the phenomenon of insular and deep-sea gigantism. Thanks !
11:32 I think it’s supposed to be m, not cm
Trying so hard not to fall asleep to the tranquil music and calm voice.
best thing ever to soothe panic attacks ✌️
this some bloodborne shit
What an amazing video.. just have to say though, found it hard to hear you properly over the music at some points.. ❤
Did you ask the fish if he changed over time😂😂😂
Perfect for our homeschool marine zoology unit. Thanks for sharing!
Looking at the rockpools could also give us a good idea on how life transitioned from water to land millions of years ago as it was very likely that during the Ordovician and Silurian that rockpool ecosystems were the first major stepping stones for life to take that first step.
Wow that's awesome beautiful 😍❤️❤️❤️
Amazing doc thanks you a lot! PS: Greenland shark : Growing to 7cm it's written :)
Wonderful, as always, I like the more scientific approach it’s about my level
Allahu akbar...
Great video. Thanks
I think you need to be a bit gentler when touching the animals & such. It looks like you might have messed up that mother isopod and egg cluster a bit. Good vidbeo otherwise
I'm already imagining two nautiluses ramming each other with their shells, and using jet propulsion to gain momentum, in a battle for territory and/or mates, similar to bighorn sheep.
Planet Earth is truly an Amazing place ! ❤
