- In summer, the gannet's main food source of sardines live far out to sea. This means the birds must dive for their food, but even one small miscalculation could prove fatal.

well that got dark quickly
+EunuchOmerta Thanks for the heads up. Skipping this one.
got quack quackly
Exactly what I was just thinking. I was marveling at these birds' underwater abilities that I was completely unaware of until today, so I looked up some videos. This shit always happens, though. That's why I'm not into a bunch of animal stuff. I was good just seeing the birds underwater.
I am flabbergasted 😂 lol thanks little mermaid - my kids just wanted to know why scuttle can breath underwater. Now they are sobbing inconsolably 🤦🏻♀️
Probably should have stopped before that last part.
“Her chick will probably starve” 😂😂 that just adds to it
That film was AWFUL
Gannets Can Walk on Land, Flying in the air and Can Swim Underwater.. Wowww That's Amazing !! I Love This Creature So Much !!
Some birds also dig up worms.
@@hydrolito some birds poop on people
They can float like a duck too
Animals like that are quite the expert
They just break their neck if they don’t dive into the water just right
Way to leave it on a high, dave
yh lol
Hahahaha
I see the resemblance lol
THEY ARE SO FAST! I LOVE THEM!
Basically live action Scuttle from The Little Mermaid
The only thing they're missing is flying to space.
I got that Scuttlebutt.
This is Scuttle😘🥰
The new Scuttle
Penguins and gannets are the birds who love to swim underwater
" FRIENDLY FIRE!!! ...... *FRIENDLY FIRE!!!* "
scuttle
What a supreme in terms of flying in and out of water, & adding to that, their ability to Dive!!! Wow! What an amazing example of the complexities of Birds
Me:sees how gracefully the gannets are diving. Wishes I could dive like they do.
Sees how hard they hit the water at 100km an HR: Wonder how much that would hurt?
Narrator: The slightest miscalculation could prove fatal.
Me: Actually nevermind. I'll leave the 100km an HR diving to the expert gannets.
Guess, what percent people are here because of the little mermaid?
I'm thinking over 50 easily...
Great footage of amazing birds dive fishing for food.
Much respect for those birds of prey aquatic version, their wings allow them to torpedo motion into water, then all them to swing and bead off water when they come up to surface with 2-3 layers of derivative feathers, not even speaking about how long they can hold there breath and open their mouths and snap up a fish without water going down there big throats for beautiful similarity in muscle memory and ergonomics.
True true master in the air and seas
I’m bout to go down a Wikipedia’s rabbit hole how there vision works so on point in both ecosystems.
Am I the only one who came after watching thé little mermaid live action trailer? Xd
Same. Birds are awesome
To find out what species Scuttle was?
Incredible!
"her death means a chick back at her collony will probulary starve"
The little mermaid live action Scuttle
Well that escalated quick.
Bravo six going down
Amazing but sad
+zamrock19 Why can't we watch an amazing documentary that doesn't turn sad all the time? :( I can't watch animal documentaries for this very reason, they ALWAYS show death. ALWAYS.
@@samhhaincat2703 You need to grow up, death is a part of life, what's the point of living in a fantasy world
@@samhhaincat2703 snowflake
Beautiful
Amazing!!
Watching this to win a argument with my wife😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love my wife btw❤
Amazing
Unbelievable birds....🛩🚀
Where this gannet from the world?😊
I question the cheerful jingle at the end of that.
yh like they say "the chick will prob die" then they have that cheerful subscribe music
Attenborough, my man
Cool!
wow!
Morus sp. - wonderful animal!
I wonder if they accidentally kill each other when they dive down because they probably can't see what under the water on the way down.
Kelvin Chau That happened in this video.
No i think that bird simply hit the water wrong and broke her neck on entry
@@warpath77 Yes they do unfortunately - piercing bills, wing damage- underneath the white water is crazy, scary and thrilling to be in - NOT recommended, the sharks are around and getting hit from a Morus could easily be fatal to a human. It doesn't often happen, not sure why, but very few injure each other. An utterly incredible bird, that can swim :)
Narrated by Buzz Killington
LOL
Hello coming from a gannet :)
Excellent video!@rastus741 #waz
Where was this filmed? I'm curious as to what species of gannet these are.
The North Atlantic Gannet. The UK and Ireland has three-quarters of the world's population.
Nature is harsh. If you can't bear it, blame Disney.
I saw a video that said they made prototypes of this bird I’m
Convinced we’re being watched by government birds now
Wouldnt be suprised they could impale a dolphin or another gannet
Dolphins won't eat the birds ?
its a mutual endeavor, the sardines, dolphins and other predators work together to hunt the sardines.
Wait, the sardines are working together against other sardines to help predators? That ain't right. They're supposed to stick together.
Does anyone know which documentary this clip stems from?
its from The hunt.

Poor gannet....
Banzaiii
