Im sure Aaron is learning as much as we are. The variety of topics is mind blowing, and I Love his naration style, and the ability to take a mundane topic or group of facts and turn it into a video that is just fascinating to even the most educated of us, makes Tuesday mornings my favorite morning of the week. Once again reminding us how fragile yet resiliant our preciuous earth is!
I’m not nitpicking, but his name is actually spelled “Arran.” It’s very unique so I understand why most people misspell it, I just wanted to let you know! I completely agree with you, he has the ability to turn everyday/mundane topics into incredibly gripping educational videos!
@@Sniperboy5551 Ah, yes, I do remember that now, thx! Wont make that mistake again. He must have gone thru life spelling his name, like I did!
His name is actually thoughty2 I saw his passport. 😏😏
Hey 42 here 😄
@@jacobsims8307I often wonder just how many ppl get the reference of his YT name... a pun on Douglas Adams Hitchikers Guide. My hubbies fave book, but one that at school I never saw the interest in, but now also love!
This is the only channel that’s lasted this long that the host has had a consistently watchable personality and engaging content that isn’t just clickbait. Well done to the team!🎉
Check out the why files (wf files) if you haven't dine so. It's incredible, and the host is amazing
I think that those people cleaning up the oceans should be awarded with the title Earth's guardians.
Ok zoomer

Yeah who cleans up the cleaner-uppers? And who’s gonna clean up the cleaneruppers of the cleaneruppers?
I just love when you cover the marine ecosystems it fascinates me
Yeah, I'm just gonna say it. Thoughty 2 your witty insight and immaculate dialog along with the never-ending creativity of your videos is hands down superior to 90 percent of mainstream info-graphic channels. Your work is very much appreciated 🙏 thank you.
Thanks!
Thanks.
We appreciate how detailed this is. The vastness of the sea is remarkable to just think about. The amount of mysteries and even possibilities it contains is endless.
Excuse me madam you don't speak for me 😤
But yea
Very interesting and educational. The Sargasum weed washes up on the shore here in south Florida especially during major storms.
I used to collect the weed from the shore as a lad and shake out the inhabitants and take home to put in my aquarium. The diversity of creatures was incredible, from small shrimp and crustaceans and the awesome Sargasum fish to baby Barricudas and many species of small fishes.
Learned some things about the Sargasum Sea I didn't know. Thanks.

I'm glad i decided to work with a professional broker Mrs Mildred Dorta who helped me in making a profit of $23,000 after a short period of time
I'm very devastated, i need help, i lost $15,000 in a live trade because of bad decisions. How do i recover?
One of the additional reasons for the 'calm' weather is because its located almost always under the sub tropical anti cyclone. That is the high pressure in the middle of the North Atlantic (all oceans have one, or two, if they cover both North and South hemispheres). The STAC is also what drives the gyre.
I was a long liner and spent some time in the sargasso sea. I remember while plowing through a mat of weed, see hundreds of little plastic kids lawnmowers floating on top, like they were cutting the grass. They must have fallen out of a container, but it was a site to see.
Mermaids were cutting grass. They were on break when you came through. Just kidding. I bet that was funny
@glennrice4030 I saw a lot of things when I was fishing and yes, that was one of the more memorable.
Thank you Arran for this fabulous channel. It is both educational, and especially entertaining. The school systems could absolutely do with many more of you, the graduation rate would soar. Your narration style and wonderful sense of humor always have me wanting more, so I ration how many of your videos I watch at a time and they last longer.
Thank god I had almost run out of thoughty2 videos!
Typically I’ve already heard about whatever topic Arran presents, but I’ve legitimately never heard about this before. There’s always new things to learn!
Today I discovered a new sea. How did we not learn this in school?

Some people hate mondays, I guess they don''t know about Thoughty2
Weird today was actually a good day for me. 😌👌👌
Some people say that the Native tribes living on Jekyll Island and other small island areas near the coast of Georgia were possibly Phoenicians. They said that in the areas even going inland a little bit towards the Smokey Mountains they found tribes that were unlike any of the others nearby due to their pale skin, blue and green eyes, and tall stature. The Europeans said that aside from their culture they almost could have been mistaken for Europeans themselves. So I definitely believe that the Phoenicians traveled through the Sargasso Sea.
Your sea related videos are fascinating.
They're Arrrrr-rated!
I spend a lot of time listening to several channels with videos like this, about random topics & science, and like to think I have at least heard of most things like this... but I cannot say I have ever heard of the Sargasso Sea. This channel is always a pleasant surprise. Thank you!
go back to school
@@suteners2111 hah
Are you american by any chance? Lmao
@@suteners2111 going back doesn't help if they never tell us there to start with. we never really had any classes this would even fit into anyway. I guess Geography would be it, but that class was pretty basic & never got too much into the oceans that much, other than basic concepts.
@@tnorki yep. lol
Im a fisherman in portugal and i donk think that is the case with eels as we fish them of our coast with as litle of 5 to 10 cm and the big ones reach up to 10 to 12 kg sometimes over that .they might be reproducing in holes of big rocky structurs,just no one can see. Our piers extend out to the sea and they are full off eels
I remember in the 80s that they found in Jawa Bay (located at the midpoint of the southern coast of Cuba) an ancient Stone Altar covered with Phoenician writings.
Now, the amount of sargassum in the sea has usually been rather scanty in modern times. So a lot of those older reports were often considered to be exaggerations. But given the massive mats of the stuff floating in seemingly from somewhere between the Brazilian and African coasts in the past few years we really need to give those reports some serious scrutiny.
I was reading an article from a sailing website and someone who was participating in a racing event, thought it would be ok to sail through a patch instead of zigzagging though. Boy was he wrong. The pace of the boat went to a crawl, and they had to work to keep the rudder clear. If the Rosalie was caught in such a thick mat that it couldn't move, maybe they thought they could get on any rowboats they had and paddle their way through. Or if they weren't too far from land, some thought they could swim it. 🤷♂ Eventually the ship drifts free where it is eventually found.
7:13 Wait, they found artifacts under the sargassum sea? Why isn't this bigger news? There have been speculations that Phoenicians or someone, has been shipping copper over from American mines into the "old world" and supporting the bronze age there. If they arrived at the sargassum sea, then it isn't hard to surmise that they didn't make it all the way to the American continent.
I disagree that they were harvesting the sargassum. More likely the sargassum wasn't an issue at first. And then a couple of years and whammo! large mats suddenly show up that made the trip too hazardous to continue. Trade stops and the copper route gets lost to history.
I'm so happy to hear him evolve as a narrator. He's gotten so good
Thank you for this video. I have always wondered how that is a "sea".
Please do a video on Admiral Byrd and his secret diary that his son found after his death.
I would love to hear your thoughts on it.
The diary is a fake. His son is a liar. Mystery solved. (really .. it's been solved for a long time now).
Aliens?alien breeding area? Eels are definitely Aliens. Thank you Again for sharing your perspective with us!
Wow. What a fantastic video! Not only did you put basically 3 seperate channels worth of information about this area together (The Ocean Cleanup and Atlas Pro) , but managed to segway 2 of your other videos into it as well! Bravo sir, you are a master of smooth transitions lol
I didn't see any segways but I did notice a segue.
What i love and respect the most about Aaron is you can tell he really doesn't care what people think about him. He doesn't chase trends and he doesn't try to be someone he is not.
Thoughty42, if you are not a teacher or professor, you absolutely should be!! No matter how dry the topic, you spin it so well with wit and humor. I'm sincerely addicted to your channel. Keep 'em coming. The only suggestion I have is to please include the American weight and measure calculations. It's too difficult asking Alexa to calculate for me every time..lol
YAAAYYYYY!!!! My week has been made with another "Best Hit Single" Thoughty2 video!!! Thanks again!!! ❤🎉🎉🎉
Your videos are always interesting. I've learned about things I've never even heard about before. And you speak so well I've no problems to hear and understand. Thanks for all the answers to life, universe and everything.
You're enunciation is so awesome! Keep up the great work, and fun and informative stories!
been watching a lot of your videos lately, really enjoying them. Every new video it's like you are getting a month younger
Who doesn't love this dude! Been watching him since nearly thr beginning and his content gets better n better. Been wanting to learn more about this, but always forget. Well, then i see your video and just finished it, so off to learn more about this sea 😊
Alway love to see a video by you pop up! This was a pretty interesting watch, it's definitely sending me down a rabbit hole of my own. Thank you for the video!
Isn't it? Me too. 😂😂 Couldn't resist commenting seeing a fellow Indian. 😊
Hi guys
@@debolinachatterjee7154 hainaa, i am amazed, socha nahi tha much people from Indo watch this channel
*Always
@@anshuuu9708 Yep it's quite uncommon to see Indians here but you know what
INDIANS ARE EVERYWHERE !!
This channel gets better. You explain things in a formal way with a style that makes it entertaining somehow I can't explain. My new favorite on CZcams
I really don't know how many people work on the videos but good job you're very successful but I still think you're way underrated for the quality of your content no bad videos no lazy work nothing ever off and no matter how boring the topic for me i can count on you to make it interesting to the point of multiple watch
Keep up the amazing work
Here in the coast of Mexico we had "sargazo" for a few years, the seaweed suddenly appeared on beaches. I was there and it doesn't smell bad, but it completely takes over and there's no space for tourism until it's cleaned up.
A well deserved 5.2 million subs. You appear to put a lot of effort in and I appreciate that.
Very good job!! love the ending (how you tied so many things together regarding the sargasso sea. !!)
all good. and also, lol, watch out for some of the creatures’ defense mechanisms when the sargasso washes up on shore! Yes! Such as, the fire bristle worm! Yikesies! And, the snippy crabs in the sargasso washing up on shore! 😅 but also, leave the sargasso piles on the beach which help stop beach erosion.
So if the jet streams are supposedly changing, & the poles are moving, will this destroy or move the Sargasso? Imagine how that would affect the earth, the things we dont even consider, but I'm glad it's being monitored & researched.
subtropical anticyclone is something you should check out
it's a geographical features of oceans, some have more than one if they are spread out both north and south of the ecuator
the Sargasso Sea is in that region in the North Atlantic so it will just move around where the currents end up settling
I wish to thank you for your content, as someone who has Adhd, you managed to keep me enthralled and engaged in the content you provide, it might be a weird way to learn about the world but then I say let me be weird. Channels like yours are something I look for when browsing, as it feeds my constant addiction to mysteries, myths, facts, and just generally how things work, it's not a total guide to everything but honestly, the sheer variety of topics and information provided is enough to have made me learn more and chase more of the wonder we have lying in this planet we call home.
It’s not real, adhd. It was a way to make being a make being a normal boy into a pathology and a way to make pharma shit tons of money. All studies that affirm ADHD were funded by big pharma. Teachers unions loved it because now boys could sit through their lesson plans geared to girl students. It became a meme in society and now people just accept that it’s real despite no evidence and plenty of evidence that the medication actually harms the children. Imagine thinking that giving amphetamines to a second grader is a good idea. It changes the brain and more than likely actually causes ADHD symptoms after prolonged use. The symptoms are mental withdrawal symptoms and the concentration comes from getting your fix. Stop taking pharma poison.
ADHD fellow here. I fully agree with you. This content helps with providing new stimulus and feeds the desire of learning something new, something interesting.
the last bit of your message made me do a double take and re-read your name, thinking you were John Michael Godier. I recommend that channel too btw, great content about space
Not weird, just different paths of learning and interests.
You might like some of Simon Whistler's channels, such as Today I Found Out, and The Casual Criminalist.
This was a particularly interesting topic! Very well-presented and informative.
I was thinking about the stone slab found at Brazil exactly when you mentioned it; they were without a doubt the most impressive civilization when it comes to sea exploration.
actually, theres evidence that native south americans were related to polynesian and were different then those who came over the land bridge in north america. so that probably makes the polynesians the most prolific explorers of the old world.
Thank you very much for this video. You are somebody, who can not only explain phenomenon extremely well, but you also love your language and your words. And this episode, once again, highlights humankind's negative interaction with nature as a whole.
Whatever topic you choose, you are knowledgable, witty and engaging. Keep up the good work. You are so near the answer to everything. It's just the "th".
Wonderful little known story. Well done
As always, I totally loved the video. Your voice always pulls me right into the story. Well done brother. Well done. 👍😎

@Thoughty2 great video and content. I have one request - could you possibly use the correct world map in your videos, one that represents the true size of each landmass.
Another good one Thoughty!
Great informative video thank you
Thanks for the video, can't wait to see it haha.
Yay!!! Thank you for your special perspective of things. Love ❤️ you!!
Thanks for talking about eels!!
Hey THOUGHTY2. Great video as always. Makes my week when I get to watch new videos from you, so thanks, N as always Love the mustache!
The North Atlantic Gyre reminds me of the great red spot on Jupiter.
Hey man! I've been watching your videos for quite a while, and i always seem to enjoy them no matter the topic, keep up the good work! 👍 ❤
Thank you. Thank you for expanding my ocean awareness. Your animations are top notch.
Happy Birthday "Thoughty",!
I am from Florida and it is pretty common for sargassum to wash up on the beaches. Mostly on the east coast of Florida where I live, which makes sense since it is facing the Sargasso sea.
Ive seen where the weed washes on shore but i didnt know there was a floating Amazon rain forest. This is amazing
Always interesting ❤
Great video. I love your channel and your presentation. If more teachers were like you, young people would be more interested in learning.
Love your videos man
It reminds me somehow of Jupiter's great red spot. I knew the Sargasso Sea was a thing, having seen it on some map when I was a kid and wondering about how a sea could be in the middle of all that ocean, but didn't know anything else about it. Thanks for the video!
Great analogy!
Like your content and voice mate 👌
First time i heard something i didn't already know, im grateful for such a well put together video! Well done
The pile up on beaches is from the great sargassum belt and not the sargasso sea.
…….water??? I’m just guessing.
Hardly hidden, is it?!
“Hey… 42 here”
Learning has always been fuel for my dopamine levels .. but crikey you make it so unbelievably entertaining 👌
Love your definitely intentional alliteration.
The sargasso sea is where the American and the European eel breeds. Pretty much the only difference between the two is one vertebrae but strangely enough one type goes far to inland America as far as Minnesota and possibly even further at one point but hydroelectric dams have hindered their journey. The others swim all the way to (u guessed it) Europe. That in itself is a mystery as to why they have become separate breeds.
The map on wiki for European eels also encompasses the Mediterranean. Maybe some Phoenician fishing vessels were following the eel migration when the adults returned to spawn to try to harvest roe (or other reason) and that is how they ended up at the sargassum (which may or may not have been full of weed at that time). Only to see a line of American eels swimming in. I am speculating that the eels were in greater numbers at that time and imagine a dark column that may have been visible from their boats. 🤷♂
If we remember that the Atlantic was once much narrower in the geological past, it may have been that when the eels developed their migration paths, the coasts of east and west might only have been as narrow as a regular river. And what we now know as American and European might have only been east bank and west bank.
And we cant breed eels we dont know how they actually do it
We haven't even finished exploring the oceans, barely touched them, yet we have already made a great start on destroying it.
yea, it is really a sad reality 😢
im so hung over and low on dopamine. ive deen trying to find something i can watch that doesn’t t make me want to doomscroll at the same time. this channel is it. thank you thoughty2
You’re cute lol
so another great eduscation from Thoughty2😃😃
With all the vessels sunk by war, there are probably trillions on the seabed.
Trillions? Are they anything like scallions?

One of my favorite channels. Keep it up
What an amazing vid - again. Thank You, great job everyone involved, this is rare gem of CZcams.
New technology needs to desperately be launched to clean the Sargasso of the plastic debris throughout it. Plastic destroying microorganisms would do wonders there, and globally in general.
Until everything you own goes rotten as fast as a banana.
While not meant to be funny, i keep imagining well doers tossing the latest iphones into the water, launching new technology into the water.
The sargassum seaweed makes it way all over to the Caribbean

Thank you for adding that end part about the plastic waist. We need to raise allot more awareness around these issues as we will not have a planet to live on in less than 9 years.
There is literally not a single video you have made I haven't enjoyed and gotten smarter while having fun.
Thank you so much so glad you uploaded and the video was very interesting i only hope you would upload more often...
First time I’ve seen ur videos. This was a great video. Thank you , I will be seeing you !!!! 👍
Just loved the Greenwitch vibe of the thumbnail.
i love every second of it, even the ads are nice

When I was MUCH younger I meta native had served in the Canadian military. He said that that they had used Phoenician dictionaries to translate Cree. Which is spoken in northern Canada.
