I didn't know manta can do this😅 It seem they do it for fun?
belly flop!
Manta rays are very much underrated.
They really love to jumpscare you by breaching right near you 😆 I like to think they have a sense of humor and are basically giggling when they do it... Like weeeee dude yeah scared you didnt I 😆😆😆
So why do they (and other fish) do that? Just because they can?
I think R Kelly’s “I believe I can fly” would have been more suitable.
Damn, them pancakes at it again

So majestic❤

Keep up the great work!
Manta ray , "I think I can fly"
Evolution is gonna kick in one of these days
Title: Manta Ray falls in love 🥰
i didn't know they could do that!😮
Kung fu panda 4
Did it breach twice in a row?
😮😮😮😮
i wish i could cuddle a manta ray so bad but i know i can't touch them :(
Makes sense why UFOs are shaped like that
They cut the clip of Steve Irwin bobbing by
i love manta rays so much
That bird is diving really deep.
Just magnificent I see the Stingray decided to put a little show on for you what a magnificent treat in life to have God bless be safe❤
""hermoso ser..""💙✋🏼
I bet he’s having fun
Are you sure it's not a ship lol flying one lol 😂
Получил первую зарплату? 😂
❤cool😊

We wonder how someone might of waited just a several seconds of each others time as paths cross by chance sensing.... Through the years💌
BIG MAN ITS BIG MAN!!!!!!
Bro how’d you even catch it swimming up like that remarkable
Fabulous!! Thank you!!! They are such unique-looking beings, almost like birds!
it's looking for Australians to stab
I'm 38, and I've only just learnt that they breach.
Half life 3
One of the most iconically beautiful animals on earth. Its design is so cool, that we worship it in movies, TV, and science fiction.
What in the world? I had no idea they could (or would) do this, given their body shape.
Strong wind and it would fly away like a plane 🤣
❤❤❤❤❤❤thank you 🤩🤩🤩🤩
This is a particularly majestic sea flap flap.
When a manta thinks it's a bird!
A video showing a manta ray actually breaching, that's unusual,a like for you sir!
I love that these majestic and beautiful peaceful giants just like to bellyflop sometimes.
Even the mantas arent real these days
I legit didn't know mantas did this O_O
I wonder what goes through a Manta Ray's head when it jumps into the air like that. Google says they can't breath air, so isn't it a bit like if we could jump up into outer space?
Having Fun!
