Crazy how it's like the ocean got a surprise update patch
I’m still waiting on the dlc
They keep buffing the creatures in Australia
First Chile discovers 100 new species and now New Zealand. Something is happening here
Maybe the sea creatures are running from something below or maybe there's something below that is causing them all to show up? Idk but this is odd @@neo2190
Let my homie big G cook🙏🔥🔥
Discovered just in time for them to be soon classified as extinct
You joke, but that's actually happened before in NZ's waters. (Just not by humans)
A lighthouse keeper's cat on had brought in a weird bird, so it was sent off to London for identification. By the time it had been identified as a new species, the cat had killed every single one of those birds on the island.
This is the only known case of a single creature causing the extinction of an entire species.
Edited for technical accuracy.
Edit 2: Turns out this isn't quite true, and more of a pre-urban legend. Multiple factors led to the extinction of the Lyall's wren, and the above story was exaggerated for effect.
I don't think they were joking@@simonteesdale9752
Their fault for being tasty.
Kind of like reasonable gas/food/housing prices…
@@simonteesdale9752Stop using the word genocide for everything that involves killing. That is not a genocide because no people are involved. Its called a theriocide if anything. Just STOP. That word has lost all its meaning.
The korean mukbangs are gonna go crazy
Nooooooooooo
Lmao
😭
😂😂😂😂
lmao ts funny
Scientists: We got this new thing from the ocean.
Me every time without fail: Put it back.
Like put it back in their home pls!!
Well compared to the trillions of fish that we pull out of the sea every year. I don't think its fair to critise scientist for doing their research.
Yeah lets just put scientific advancement on pause forever cus cute fishie
These scientists dedicated their life to marine animals, they love them and fight for their protection more than we do. Huge fisher boats are the issue, not scientists
I think people are confused
I don’t care about the animals being in their natural habitat or not, I just don’t want to see that monstrosity.
That "sea pig" and that "eel" look like they went through the same thing the "blobfish" went through.
You only know this because u saw a video of it recently, stop acting like u know more than them
@@mrpickles-hb6zx It's a simple theory. You're out of line
@@mrpickles-hb6zx well, for one, I just made an assumption but never compared myself to the researchers so I don't know where this aggression is coming from. And two, I was able to confirm through asking in a subreddit that while the eelpout looks normal, the sea pig was in fact subject to depressurization which caused it to look like that; the same thing that caused the blobfish to look gelatinous in that one viral photo.
sure is
that's the purpose of videos, so we know more and start acting like we knew more than we did the day before

1:42 I don’t like how he chucked it instead of gently placing it down
I completely agree with this
Oh no bunch of sensible people there again
@@ChobeVelyashawait till they find out how other animals treat these ones...
He looked like he “chucked” it down because it was likely dead already. They don’t care. It’s all in their pursuit of “knowledge”, and how “good” this will look for everyone involved’s LinkedIn profiles and their résumé/CV.
It’s funny to me… Everyone complains about illegal fishing & “trolling” or “raking” the seafloor, which is clearly horribly damaging, but look at what these scientists did here. Basically raking a section of seafloor to analyze whatever they pull up. They forcibly removed living things from their homes to LOOK at them, and some of them, he said they couldn’t even figure out “what” they were! What a waste! So naturally, he chucked it back. At that point, nobody cared. 🫤
They don’t need to be gentle. The animals suffocated likely in the open air, if they even survived the capturing process, or the pressure reduction after being forcefully brought to the surface… but no bother to these ppl. Think of the LinkedIn!!
you do realise they're all dead? they've just been ripped from huge pressure to sea level pressure.
Love it when they describe the thing they filmed instead of just showing the thing they filmed
Bro that jello in the thumbnail looks like a headcrab
I was looking for this comment. Not disappointed. :D
:::::::::
0:50 reminded me of a
Japanese horror movie
I saw. I forgot the name

that, this WEIRD looking

exploded!! 🤢🤮
Yes! First thing I thought and started reaching for my crowbar...
hey Gordon
It looks like dumplings from spirited away
scientists found headcrabs, so half-life is canon
no i don't wanna die

True, that's why I was seeing something similar and didn't remember it until you mentioned Half Life 😆
i knew id find a half-life reference in the comments somewhere

"one mission, finding new species in the sea before they're lost forever". heartwarming.
New Ocean update is lit
0:49 is clearly a plumbus.
Beat me to it.
@@4ktrash4lyf came here to say the same thing
Let's call it a tie. We're all Rick and Morty geniuses.
I didn't know plumbus is an animal
That's the first thing that came out of my mind
Must be amazing for scientist to see so many new species so quickly. There must be an absurd number of undiscovered species down there.
absurd is living on the surface under the sun's radiation
@@frankyymilkyy9001maybe there’s a civilization down there to
This is why I love animals just the diversity of animals we have on our planet
There is an absurd number of new species discovered every year; about 18,000. I often wonder how many of those are new evolutionary discoveries vs how many have always been there, but only just now seen.
And then people refuse to admit that there is GOD
Loved this! Thanks for sharing!
I was actually extremely surprised that the thumbnail was not clickbait
They should also include information about the damage deep-sea mining could cause to these new squishy marine animals
Oh, the insurmountable loss..
Sounds like that is different topic.
Maybe, but it’s closely related, though. These newly discovered creatures are living on the sea floor. Deep-sea mining would likely destroy their fragile habitat that has been undisturbed for hundreds of thousands of years.@@namenotfound8747
@@andraspeter1114 We do not understand how the ecosystem works, so disregarding its importance is absolutely irresponsible. And even if you don't care about the whole oceanic trophic chain (you should), then out of ethics, one does not destroy life because one does not like how it looks or feels disconnected to it.
@@Flickvids100 We were taklking about deep sea mining which is obviously not senseless destruction. Also Im quite sure that there at least is a legal requirement to conduct studies about marinelife impact before the mining operations beggin. So yeah, not every human activity which is in the interest of the whole species (like getting minerals for green energy production) and causes liminal interference with the habitat of wildlife should be disregarded as unethical. If we say that than basically we should just simply go extinct as human life as we know it is incompatible with an intangible planet.
Wouldn’t bringing to the surface an organism that is used to living with 5km worth of water the pressure likely to kill it?
Yes, they are most likely all dead
Yeah, humans don't really care about that stuff.
Yeah, but science
Yeah, but it's fun to look at how weird they are.
Of course, that’s probably why many of the specimens look puffed up. Just look at the difference between a blobfish at its natural depth and a blobfish in air.
bro this is unbelievable, they found an actual plumbus in the ocean
I would have loved to be on that voyage, the sheer excitement of discovering new species!!! Wow.
🥱
“We've even got, at least, one creature which we’re not really sure what it is”
_Proceeds to not show it_
My guess is that they want to be the first ones to describe it. They dont want another researcher or person to steal their images and claim they described it first. Scientists are a bit paranoid that way i have learned. I went on an reseaech excursion vessel that had seen a pod of 9 humpback whales that day. That was our goal, to go out and see the whales and track the migration. But they didnt post online or or tell other reasearchers right away because of this same reason. That's only my guess tho!
How could they they don't t even know what it looks like
Of course they wont. Typical.
Satyam...myrenmaruu
@@Vexcenotpretty sure they mean as in what species it is
Afterall if they didn't see it they wouldn't have mentioned it in the first place
Each specimen was the last living member of its species.
I hope it's not the case
source: trust me bro?
the irony
💀
Ok but let’s be real, nobody cares about another slightly different sea urchin
I remember a scientist explaining that as far as exploring the Universe goes it's like man has dipped a glass into the ocean and held it up. That's the scope of understanding we really have of what's out there
The ocean is one of the strangest and coolest things about earth. That sea pig is too cute!!
That's why I love how there are still tons of things we have yet to discover.
Sad that we have lost so many species we will never even find.
yeah like ur father
yeah like the person who asked
yeah
ye
the plumbus update is crazy
That was exactly what i was thinking lmaoo
A lot of the ocean is still unexplored after all, I'm always curious to see findings like these
This is amazing!!

This si truly fascinating. One of the weird creatures became a biologist. Incredible.
What a nice and round number of new species to discover.
No one can tell me that there's not something similar to this kind of strange life on other distant planets and solar systems.
I don't think anybody is
If it lives in the Goldilocks Zone and the living conditions are similar to earth there’s a high chance there is depending on temp,,oxygen,gravity and pressure
Oh Gosh! That's Exactly what I was just going to tell you! But now that you say I can't, then imma just go find someone else and tell them...

The way they looking for new species is fascinating. They just plow the sea bottom with nets destroying everything alive and then they are like: "Wow, we found new species before they extinct, let's find another one!"
can there be like a whole documentary i need to know about all of them
“We’ve even got at least one creature which we’re not really sure what it is.”
**doesn’t show a picture of said creature** 😐
THANK YOU! Great "Reporting" :P.
And still some insist in accelerating deep sea mining.
Abyssal plain is dessert with occasional signs of life feasting on falling organic matter.
@@souravjaiswal-jr4bj Did you hear at what depth they retrieved these organisms? Most of the ecosystems down there are highly sensible and depend on the nodules. Once gone, they stay gone.
And...no, it's not a dessert. Please don't eat it.
People want a green revolution but are against mining any of the toxic metals that we use to do it.
And pump in CO2.
@@souravjaiswal-jr4bj those "occasional signs of life" form an essential part of the food chain. They're also part of the recycling system that keeps all life on Earth running. If it wasn't for them we wouldn't be here.

i agree, ian
Hi Ian
Hits the same as playing Subnautica for the first time then finding that one biome you accidentally glossed over
new sea dlc is crazy 😭🙏
We've discovered only 5-7 percent of maritime life; such amazing discoveries are unstoppable.
If we haven't discovered all of them how can you know it's only 5-7%...? 🤔
@@ginojaco estimates. And most of undiscovered species are microorganisms or insects.
Most will go extinct before being discovered
@@rafael_lana no doubt, but that is not to the point, which is - rather simply - that it is impossible to state that any given percentage of something is accounted for if the total figure is unknown... 👍
@@ginojacoit’s not. Take an average number of known species by area of ocean and extrapolate. It’s not that complicated, and everyone knows it’s an estimate, that’s the very definition.
Just in time for the new update
Que lindo chicos estuve en 1999 con amigas en varias casas de familia por un mes y me trajeron muchos recuerdos sobretodo la vibra❤❤❤
0:53 that is literally a digimon lol
it's Tokomon
omg yes
my first thought as well xD
Didn’t expect to find a digimon fan here 😂
@@ChronicTheHempHog-mf3nh we are everywhere 😂
Think people have to see the woods for the trees here. Just like theres a pleural variety of various different robins and pigeons, you're bound to have the same underwater. Alot of these new discoveries are analogous to other known genuses. Its definitely fascinating to see the evolution of underwater creatures.
The sea pig looks like a vital part of making a plumbus
0:49 looks like a headcrab with its feet cut off.
Scientists are looking for strange creatures in the depths, but all you have to do is look into the Parliament. This is where the strangest creatures come in...
😂😂😂
Lol
not the appropriate place for politically-benign boomer jokes
No chance of them becoming extinct though..
Agreed. They were safer before humans discovered them. Now they're endangered species.
New species* chilling in their own environment
Meanwhile* humans on their way to catch them and disturb their habitation
And that's how your Biology textbook ends up thicker and thicker
A sea horse now a sea pig, what they just missed was the sea cat
Its the octopus
Cat fish
Correction...
*Sea sheep*
We've also seen the Sea Bears and Sea Rhinoceros
In thailand, seals are called แมวน้ำ which is a compound word of แมว(cat) and นํ้า(water or sea) so I think that could count as a sea cat
the new plumbus model is looking crazy 💀💀
People just straight up finding pokemon in the ocean, the world's a mad place.
The ocean is always fascinating, but damn scary.
1:35 please don't hurt him with harsh word
Imagine you saw one of these but couldnt identify what it is, cant even tell if whether or not its an animal. But years later people discovered it, and it turns out to be a new discovery.
Okay but are they posted somewhere one by one??? I want to see T_T
Everybody gangsta until a sea pig attaches to someone's nervous system and stars piloting the body.
Did they put everything back nicely?
They dissected.
no it ded
They wanted to spend money for the MRI and CT-scans.. but surgical knife was cheaper.
Most things living 5 km deep will die when brought to the surface.
When they pull something up from the bottom of the ocean like that they usually don’t make it. Pressure difference.
This is so amazing and wonderful. I hope they get the funding they need to continue making these discoveries 👏🏻
Discovery of new biological mechanisms in these new species, especially those with promising potential for medical applications would help counter-balance other industrial interests, thus help conservation efforts.
It's not only about the irreversible loss of diversity, but also the irreversible loss of knowledge.
Tokomon?!
That's a headcrab from HL wtf
One of many examples where people talk but dont say anything.

I have heard this story before on the news about new species of marine species in San Diego. Scripps Institute is the US biggest research for these things.
To be discovered during the largest extinction event the earth has ever been part of is a stake in the heart.
Beautiful work! Congratulations!!

I cant remember them all anymore, before they were 151 only
I remember going to Kelly Tarlton's in Auckland years ago and being fascinated about all of the life in the ocean. Information on these newly discovered animals will hopefully be a cool addition.
0:49 OMG THAT'S SO CUTE 🥺
This thing looks like that one cute alien companion pet in a sci fi game
(Definitely not an aquatic headcrab)
Whenever you feel as if your job is irrelevant... Know that a squid expert exists...
It's almost like revealing new pokemon
If an alien civilization discovered us, would they do the same thing?
most likely
They would take us as pets and give us candies as treats.
maybe, maybe not, an Alien would have a different mind and thus it could have no curiosity or no desire to know. It could even exterminmate us all just because, who knows.
If a alien species could discover us they would ignore us. Unless they need a planet sized ball of molten iron.
