"What do you bring to the table?"
"Aesthetically pleasing mandalas"
"I'm yours"
You had me at 🫧 🫧🫧🫧
Lmao!!
Ikr?!! It’s kinda comical!!
@@user-ns6uf4rc2iBiden wants to sniff you, and truthfully I wanna sniff your feet
😂😂😂
Does anyone realize how mathematically perfect the design is??
YES ✨✨✨🐠
It's like he had one of those spirograph toys - I couldn't do a better job in the sand on the surface - I couldn't even do it THAT INCEDIBLY WELL!! Nature - Crazy amazing stuff!!
Plants make mathematically perfect designs. It's not hard and doesn't require intelligence.
It's very impressive!
the fish made it so@@rizkyadiyanto7922
Spy puffer is just that guy. The wing man we all need 😂
I’d like to think ‘We need to help these little fish get laid’ was one of the reasons on the dry erase board for constructing a robot puffer.
“I help”
Spy puffer is a pervy voyeur.
I cannot believe a fish made this elaborate geometric masterpiece - not even a human could do this without serious planning. It looks like an image of the radiant sun.
You cannot believe it?
Because a human couldn't do it? There's a lot of stuff that humans cannot do that other animals do well. This happens to be one that we can appreciate is spectacular, but the natural world is full of amazing abilities that we don't have.
Still seemed like it took serious planning for the fish to me.
“no human could do this without serious planning” . A great case of the Plato’s allegory of the cave 😂😂
Some humans can do this without planning.
Humans can do this dont like top comment lol
Imagine creating a masterpiece 24/7 for a relationship that would not even last for an hour!
but the eggs will stay there while babies grow so all their hard work is paying off
Sounds like what happened with my last girlfriend. Gone in a flash.... good thing my robot girl was able to take over her duties and do a better job.
Like fixing up your bedroom for a one night stand 😅
An hour? More like 1 second. No thanks! How did they mate though? I don't get it. Lol
I know that feeling. 😂
Artist, architect, mathematician, and physicist.
These pufferfish have a killer resume portfolio
Don't forget "lover!"
Um Leonardo Da Vinci.
And now since they both pro‐created on camera they can add pornstar 🐚🐡🪸
A Renascence fish.

Spy puffer is that friend in movies that give relationship advices to the protagonist
She said one more sea shell or no babies! Lol😂
Bahahahahahahahahahahahha
Spy Puffer is a total bro 👍🏻
lol
What a wingman!
@@srezzy1326😮 😂
Spy puffer isn't a real fish. Its a "dummy"
@@mimidec obvi.
Imagine you make some art for the girl you like and it's so good it attracts the attention of a being so advanced you can't even comprehend
Hahaha yeah true
😂😂😂😂 nice way to put it into perspective
Alien ufo helped build the pufferfish pyramid.
And those beings even helped you get the girl.
They probably well aware what we are, you never know.
This video goes straight to my "I thought I had seen everything and new it all" folder.

Now you know everything.
Thinking you knew everything is pretty crazy of you.
I'm taking my next date to the beach and secretly see what he does in the sand 😂🐟
😂😂😂😂😂
Try making a summoning circle in the sand and see if your date is willing to breed in the center as sacrifice
Nice feelings expressed
Cute princess👸
Absolutely incredible that they can achieve this level of large symmetry despite being so small.
Well, humans build skyscrapers and pyramids.
Thats what she said
As an engineer, I can see a Superior engineer was able to program these animals to do this. And I am not worthy to lose his sandal.
You could say the same for humans lol.
@@wannabecarguyClassic argument from ignorance.
“I don’t know something, therefore god magic.”
Could you imagine randomly finding this with no previous knowledge of puffer fish? Atlantis!
Seriously, and crop circles are probably just really artistic cows just wanting some ass.
I was just thinking that! If I saw this at a random part of the ocean floor I wouldn't know what to think! I'd lose sleep over trying to figure out what creature could possibly have done that!
Oceanic crop circles 😂
Lol what giant pufferfish made Atlantis👀
Aliens :D
0:51 He’s like, GET that sh*t out of here 😤
I love that Spy Puffer helped out! Very cute haha 😂
Did not realize pufferfish did this. Amazing! Also, the fact that spy pufferfish helped be a wingman was fun. Fantastic footage!
How was that fun? We could have used that time watching real puffers making nests. I didn't come to look at some toy.
That spy 🐡 did him a solid! Wish I could get help like that 😅
Better art than a lot of stuff at the national gallery.
Now this is art that I would actually go and see👍
so many degrading art with no aim for artistic presentation and being hype in the art gallery... even a two year old kid can made it....
They consider a banana taped to a canvas to be art now.
@@jblob5764 and a receipt from the local co-op😢
Whatever shit billionaires buy is considered art now.
No crafting tools, no mechanism, no training. And boom comes the perfect design with accuracy and symmetric. Nature !!

This has to be one of the most fascinating things I have seen that occurs in nature.Truly amazing.
And you have birds doing basically the very same thing. Life is amazing, and dudes do anything to get laid.
And it just did not happen due to evolution. At some point in time; this knowledge had to be placed in the genes or DNA of the creatures that have these abilities. A Creator had to do this as there is really no other way for it to happen. Think about it.
@bradoutboard8885 Oh so your part of the "Annunaki/Alien genetic engineering" crowd? Interesting take though,one I certainly would have never contemplated.
@@bradoutboard8885 "as there really is no other way for it to happen" something or someone brainwashed you brother, get help
bradoutboard8885 and you know there's no other way than a "Creator" how? Lmao just talking out your ass like all religious people
Spy Puffer's a good wingman ❤
A friend like spy puffer is very rare.
You mean fin man ;P
I should learn from this fish how to value myself and choose the best male - hardworking , caring
No you not a fish. Anybody with money say yes the rest is not important
@valkane3596 hoping u end up homeless until you realize you're flawed and very wrong✨
Except you will choose totally the opposite
@@valkane3596she's not a fish and doesn't have to be, Don't equate all humans with your problematic self

That circle is the equivalent of candles and roses around a bed 😅
Nature is incredible! I never realized fish were this intelligent or artistic. This is better than crop circles 🙂
God's creation is a masterpiece in itself.
@@yummm8775 lmao
Even fish can make accurate art and then there is me... a loser 😂😂😂
As much as I like fishes and care for them, they aren't that "intelligent". It's anthropomorphism to say that they are artistic. This is the result of million of years of evolution, this build is made automatically, and is optimised for the female to lay eggs. We, humans, interpret it as art, when in reality it's a comportement motivated for reproduction. But don't get me wrong, it's still pleasent to see, and very cute imo.
@@octologue3206 Wrong. Everything we call intelligence in ourselves is also results of millions of years of evolution, and most of what we do is also motivated by desire to reproduce. This is absolutely intelligence. Pufferfish are much more intelligent than your average fish.
A pufferfish??
This is wild & so sweet.
What a pretty design!
Pufferfish did so well he's reeling in the human females too!
@@crazy10bearsthe pufferfish needs to leave some rizz for us, inferior land walkers.
You know AI is getting scary when it makes a good wingman for a pufferfish
Exactly let nature be nature
But cannot for us
@@AaravSharma-dq4hx Not yet😂
It's controlled by people so it's not AI
It's remote controlled
Spy Puffer is not the wingman that he deserved, but the wingman he needed 😎
Puffer wingman may be the best man
Spy Puffer is the best wingman ever,Of all time.
Amazing. I have never heard of fish doing this kind of stuff before! The eyes of the puffer look very developed and it shows in the complex geometric shapes that they can create
Ikr. God is great

@@georgyzhukov6409 thank you God 🙏🏻
Look at the look of happiness on the fish's face! that look like, "I'm gonna mate in here." that's priceless! 😏🥂
Excuse me! Not only is it a beautiful design but this is brilliant.
I don't have enough shells!! - Spyfish "I got you bro!"
Wonderful. Another example that demolishes the notion that only humans can do creative work. 🐠

I think puffer fish are officially my favorite fish.
They became my favorite animal

Omg, I love PBS “Spy in the Wild” series, the spy octopus one was entertaining to watch also
yes
OMG yes! ❤❤❤
Omg. I cant believe that a fish can do this art!!
I have to have my husband learn this technique! He can't be just getting happy endings so free and easy!
SpyPuffer bro was like
"I got'chu"
Incredible that a fish can create such intricate patterns and designs! Im not sure how they think of it, but its truly fascinating
Pure work of god
@@monke6157 Hey, you can't just credit God here, the fish worked very hard and his efforts should be properly recognized 😤😤😂

Look at that sand sculpture, it's a fabulous sand sculpture. One of the best sand sculptures ever.
Wow! NATURE.!

I am about to have my Art degree. As an artist this is truly amazing to see! I have loved fish my entire life. We are without a doubt kindred spirits.🐠
Now I want a Sand Sculpture
Unbelievable😮 Some say fish are dumb. creatures, but just look how perfectly that design was made by these little fishes,I am speechless,never ever thought I would see something like this
Fish are very smart. I remember seeing videos of goldfish performing tricks. I don't care what people say, you have to have some intelligence to learn how to do things, especially when it's against natural habits.
@@SkitSkat674 Well said.👍
@@SkitSkat674, yes but in this case it's not against natural habits, it's literally a part of who they are, it's their instincts, they are born with this, with this knowledge to do this, it's a part of their race, of their mating ritual to attract a partner and continue their race by creating a new generation, it's not intelligence in this case even though it looks and is really awesome
@@doloresgronenberg5882Thank you.
Great white shark had now already adapted a strategy to take down a fully grown living Humpback whale.
This trait has never been seen and unheard off until 2020s.
Fish are smart and adaptable creatures.
I liked the part where the fish grabs the debris and just gives off a vibe like he’s saying „ay get ouvva ere’ mate”
Spy puffer being the finest wingman ever 👌 ✨️
I like to imagine how confused the male pufferfish seeing random puffer spy help him lol
Nature is amazing🙂
That spy puffer just changed the course of pufferfish history
Puffer Fish are the Bower Birds of the Ocean.
The godlike result of evolution and unimaginable time lapses
When a fish is more romantic and dedicated to what his crush like than most men
What a nice and smart little fish 😊
Puffers are awesome and incredibly intelligent. I have a porcupine puffer (He acts like a dog and even eats peas), a Dogface Puffer, a Blue Spotted Puffer, Figure 8 Puffers, Green Spotted Puffers, and Pea Puffers. Watching an aquarium is so much better than watching television. 🐡🐡🐡🐡🐡🐡🐡
You don't keep them all in the same tank, do you?
Here's one artist that won't be bothered by Gen-AI
Kinda funny to think that human bros are using some pretty sophisticated technology to help their fellow fish bro get the girl 😂
Helping' the lil' homie get some. Good on you, PBS.👍🏽 😂
This is insane! Imagine a shoreline full of these that men have made with buckets & shovels and we have to choose, lol.
Spy puffer is the real MVP of a wing man
That’s amazing! Very intelligent fish! Also, Spypuffer needs a cape. 😁
After so much work all she gives him is like two seconds of love! This is Country song material. 😊
and via the mouth...? Bizarre
All it was just a kiss lol
That's actually pretty adorable... imagine trying to flirt with someone and this inexplicably odd but really kind stranger decides to become your wingman
Male Puffer after the short af mating :
"Ayo shoutout to my dude Spy Puffer!"
These fishes are so romantic ~~
“With a little help from spy puffer.”
Too freaking cool 😎.
Making a perfect circle like that is amazing in itself
Spy Puffer is like a robotic fish cupid... Whooa
Great Job spy puffer! 😂
A heart-warming story about overcoming limitations, adversity, pollution, and finding romance. A movie made for those with short attention spans. A classic for modern audiences for sure.
How is it about overcoming pollution?
@@Lucas-sk5iy People throwing seashells in the pufferfishes art. Humans not letting the fishies figure it out on their own.
Spy puffer is my spirit animal...LOL.
This fish has more class than a lot of people do these days.
The world is a beautiful & amazing place. Thank you for sharing. I am blown away ;) ♡♡♡
The spy puffer is the homie who runs down to the store real quick to get a candle to complete your romantic surprise setup.
Spy puffer is one hell of a wing man
All that precision art and hard work for a 5 second hit and run!!! 😲
I absolutely cannot believe this. I'm a deep spiritual person, and this just left me in complete awe of the Divine😢
Me too! It’s unbelievable.
The puffer’s divine architecture is possible because God created that species. Try to formulate another reason for why this design on the sand is so mathematically accurate, and it can only make less sense than the fact that God blessed these creatures with a fascination for art. All praise and Glory to God! Ave Cristus Rex!
Wow, I had no idea of this art. Amazing ❤
Brings me chills.
Endless harmony.
pretty cute how the fish picks up those shells to decorate the ridges
The amount of effort some animals invest to court a mate amazes me, sometimes it's more than what humans do 😂
I generally don't think of small fish having the ability to both create and appreciate art. Isn't that a hallmark of a sentient being? Thanks for the education
Praise God
Humans aren’t sentient . Some like the guy above me is as dumb as the fish
I think it's just learned behaviour, skills and survival startegy as usual
@@danko5866 I was pondering that, but then how did it start? And why the carefully chosen shells? Learned behavior would have any comparable shell placed with less precise positioning. Perhaps I'm applying human action to a nonhuman, something I think is a common reaction. I've seen pretty nest, attractive hides, etc. but not such intricate work. It's art
Exactly praise god
I swear this is interesting af. When I was young I didn't watch cartoons or read picture book like other kids but I watched animal stuff like this
What a good wingman spy puffer is
LOVE THIS have seen it twice before, Never gets old.
I had no idea that there were any fish that did anything like this!
A pufferfish has artist in its soul.
I'm boutta cry this is so adorable, I've gotta up my game as a human now
Dynamic symmetry performed live, for love! Beautiful.❤🐟
Honestly this is just amazing stuff.. Animals keep surprising me, wow.
We all need a Spy Puffer in our lives.
I think the "art" element is highly overstated in this video. You hinted at the real point. It's a safe *nest*
''For some it might be a mesmerizing symmetrical sand sculpture, but for the fellow male pufferfish it's a declaration of war'' -David Attenborough
I can't decide which one is more amazing the sand sculpture, the actual pufferfish him self or the spy puffer.💯💪🏾
Spy puffer being the best wing man
I just witnessed a robot pufferfish get the wife assist on a real pufferfish over his incredibly detailed sea-bed sand artwork, who knows how many tens of meters underwater
This is so fucking cool
