Wildlife Expert Breaks Down Animal Scenes from Movies Part 3 | GQ - Zábava

You have my attention.
1.1k likes and not a single comment?
Lol
S c and you messed it up
🤣
U can actually go places to do it in my country of south Africa (very stereotypical ik lol). It's for tourists and I'm not sure whether all are legit and safe tho obviously.
Me: awe that orca is pretty cute
Expert: this is emotional torture
Me: oh
Don't be sad. That orca died shortly after filming and has not suffered for a long, long time.
@@a.hollins8691 didn't know that. That's sad and comforting at the same time.
@@a.hollins8691 Don't be sad hes dead..
*Sadness Intensifies*
Extremely Memely I literally cried at that part 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 don’t judge me 😩
The whale was already in captivity when they made this movie they didnt catch him just to maje it, also they freed kiko and he died in the wild after getting sick
That thing about the dorsal fin never going up again was the saddest thing I've heard in a while
for reall :(
It's wrong. Many scientists have said such. Dorsal Fin Collapse happens in certain Orca populations in the wild at a rate of about 25%, and there are many factors as to why it is more prominent in animals in captivity.
Except it isn't so sad. His story about the dorsal fin is wrong. It's true that a collapsed dorsal fin will never straighten out again. However it is absolute nonsense that it has anything to do with their happiness or mental well being. It is just a physics thing: male killer whales' dorsal fins are big, floppy and unstable things (they lack any bone or muscle structure). When a killer whale spends more time at the surface - like captive animals do - the fin is subject to more gravity, and it eventually collapses. It happens in wild killer whales too, for example when they are sick for a while and spend more time at the surface for a while.
He’s wrong though. It’s unclear why it happens, but it absolutely does happen in wild orcas.
While he may be wrong about dorsal collapse, he's not wrong about the psychological torture. Blackfish tells the story well for a particular whale (RIP Tilikum) and having been to Marineland and seen the belugas grating their teeth on the walls out of boredom, it's a heartbreaking thing. If you can ever advocate for it, that place needs to be shut down.
Rural Raccoons: I don’t want to be seen or heard
City Raccoons: I’m walking here!!
the new york accent in my head makes that delivery so much better
180Treehousegang BRO I DID THE SAMEEE THING THE BROOKLYN ACCENT😭😭
its the same with foxes as well which i think is cool
Lol 😂 actually fun fact: Hermann Goering, Hitlers number 2 and head of the Luftwaffe, was an avid hunter (and morphine addict). His first wife past away and he built a hunting lodge in Germany named for her, Carinhall. He actually let a few North American raccoons go and they ended up breeding and now there are cities/suburbs in Germany where they have gotten out of control .
Then you got Rocket raccoon!
"Australians sound super funny" - Did not think I would be attacked so soon in a video.
Bloody oath mate
The Dragon Reborn I wish I had an Australian accent
Honestly..
it was just rude
I always burst out in laughter when they say maaiitt!! Instead of mate.😂😂😂
Haha I thought the same...I don't sound funny, I sound normal 🤣
The part about the orca fins just completely ruined my day.
Ye, now you know that Keiko was feeling pretty darn miserable doing this movie/living in captivity (as if it wasnt obvious otherwise) and ofc he died shortly after actually freed, not able to adapt living in wilderness. So try watching the movie now without feeling miserable....
Watch blackfish and the story of keiko if you haven’t already
@@jaygio I bet you're a blast at parties.
@@jaygio Bit of a non sequitor, what are your thoughts on PETA?
@UCeLPeZ-e5MKNUT70i-tFM3w If you actually wanted to educate people and bring attention to the plights of animal rights and preservation you'd probably be a lot less aggressive and hostile like Forrest does to spread awareness, because not every person has access or has been exposed to the same information you have and they may just not have known at all until this moment. Instead, I get the feeling you just want to feel self important and snotty over someone who just learned something new and disappointing, and that's pretty pathetic. Have a good one.
I can't get over the fact that he's a wildlife biologist named "Forrest". Some things are just meant to be.
Nominative determinism babeyyyyy!!!!
theres a professional tennis player named Tennys Sandgren lol
I bet you believe all celebrities have their original name too... lots of people change their name for profit. Including this guy
@@Gnossiene369 lmao well it’s his actual name nimrod
@@Gnossiene369 i can’t tell if I should label this the stupidest conspiracy theory or the most idiotic. What sounds better
Free Willy is even sadder when you realize that Keiko the orca was freed in July 2002 but didn't adapt to being in the wild and died in December 2003.
Did you know he never actually left human care for more than one month? Watch, Keiko: the untold story of the star free willy!
Wait what ? What happened ? 😭
@@lauradelacruz3458 He died of acute pneumonia in 2003, when he was 27 years old.
@@isitoveryet9525 wow that’s so sad, but was he really incapable of adapting in the wild ?
@@lauradelacruz3458 probably sometimes when an animal is in captivity for that long they lose their animal instincts
Yesterday I watched this guy literally cry of joy because he and his team got footage of a leopard that was declared extinct +20 years ago. I knew he looked familiar..
r/thathappened
@@zeke6170 Yes actually. Forrest has a show on Animal Planet. "Extinct or Alive" where he travels the world looking for things he thinks could still be out there. Like "Finding Bigfoot" but with real animals. And a host who's smart and honest enough to say if something just doesn't have a chance of still being here. This particular one is the series premier for it. The Zanzibar Leopard. According to Forrest, they went there because of a conversation they had with a producer. "You know Forrest, the Dodo and Tasmanian Tiger are popular ideas for animals that're still out there. What's something you think is out there, but people don't seem to consider?" and Zanzibar Leopard was the first thing he said.
Ezequiel Espinoza it actually did. You should check out his show Extinct or Alive, cause it is super interesting, and it’s actually some species that he have found that is not extinct
Ezequiel Espinoza yeah doesnt seem that improbable but okay
@@zeke6170 There's always one *_eye roll_*
"Yay, Free Willy, I adored this movie as a kid!"
:D
"... This is a physiological form of emotional torture that you're seeing exhibited as a characteristic."

* sad childhood noise *
T H I S
Combat Wombat . . . O-oh
Free Willi has actually helped the whales as species a lot because it drew a lot of attention to the cause. :) So while the thing about his fin is indeed devastating, the film itself isn't bad. And the whole point of it was for Willy to be free and that hasn't changed with this fact. :)
Well, the movie itself makes a clear point that a marine mammal like an Orca should not be captive for our entertainment.
"He's in africa, we got an African elephant mounted on the wall and what comes bashing thru the wall? An indian elephant" Idk why this was so funny 😂😂😂
Yep it's only funny to you
I found it pretty funny too
@@masterofpuppets5072 ratio
I definitely laughed at that 😂😂
I love that he stops the video at one point just to say 'Look how freaking adorable raccoons are! Appreciate their cuteness people!'
Let's be honest. They could make a sub channel with just this guy and we would all flock to that.
Like birds or sheep! Animals.
It would look just like that flying fish scene!
He has become a friend of mine
He really is a cool dude it seems
I totally agree. He’s way of doing these analysis are so satisfying
I'm a simple man. I see Forrest Galante breakdowns, I click.
Same. I love his breakdowns.
But you have a female name ,so you are a simple woman
literally what i did lol
need him back on JRE
Yes
People arguing that his statement about captive orcas having collapsed dorsal fins due to emotional distress is not true are blowing my mind. ALL of the current research states that wild orcas who have collapsed dorsal fins have either been injured or they are UNHEALTHY. It is a sign of something being WRONG. A captive orca who is fed a non-natural diet and kept in a tiny tank is SUFFERING. To try and argue otherwise just to make the point of, "Well, it's seen in the wild TOO" is absolutely disgusting. It's seen in the wild when something is wrong, or injury has happened. An orca kept in captivity is experiencing EMOTIONAL DISTRESS. You cannot argue that. Stop trying to discredit this man's statement just to play semantics with his words.
My understanding, and I"m no expert so grain of salt and all that, was that the fin flops down because captive orcas spend so much more time at the surface than in the wild wild. Being in the water gives the fin support. I'm curious what you label as a non-natural diet? Dead fish as opposed to live? Being a snake owner, I haven't heard of live vs prekilled being a health issue so long as the snake eats.
@@desolatefox I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure orcas in captivity get different food when it comes to hormones and such that are in the food they receive, as well as medicine they get which they would never get in the wild life (for example to elevate their sperm). Even the outburst of hormones, joy and all that of hunting a living animal is a very different experience than being feed a dead animal
@@jojofishy613 Hmm, interesting. I hadn't thought of meds. Plus orcas are more intelligent than snakes, so feeding would be an enrichment on its own.
@@desolatefox in the wild orcas get a very very diverse and large diet whereas in captivity they only really get fish and probably not nearly enough for their size and caloric needs and have been seen hunting small birds so they are actively seeking to hunt and get enrichment they are otherwise not offered. This is incomparable to a much much smaller and if we’re honest with ourselves much dumber snake so the enrichment it needs and caloric dietary needs are much easier to accommodate in an acceptable way. That’s why snakes are more acceptable captive animals than a very intelligent large animal when it comes to food and enrichment.
@@kylieroth2326 That's a very interesting take on it. I appreciate your comment and that we can converse.
Wait, we just gonna skip over the fact that they specifically targeted great white sharks just for the iron in their livers? IS THAT NOT COMPLETELY NUTS TO ANYONE ELSE?
They are also fond of the claspers, and eat whale babies for just the tongue.
They don’t know what livers are or what iron is. They probably think “this tasty organ makes me feel better.”
I've seen orca's tear live penguins in half and leave the still alive penguin for dead.
You should watch pods of orcas synchronizing their diving under ice chunks TO MAKE WAVES to break up the ice chunks and dislodge the seals on top. Them things are wicked' smart.
It’s been shown they pass down information to younger generations. So if one figured it out then they can communicate that and then pass down that information. Crazy isn’t it?
comments liked this guy so much he’s coming back 3 times and no one is complaining
And i expect the 4th one
Comments liked animals so much...
Hannah Strom And that’s a fact
GQ should just make a series with this guy alone. Sitting in a room, talking to us about animals in movies for hours on end.
*throws phone on floor” ANOTHER!
PUT HIS NAME IN THE TITLE LIKE YOU DO EVERY OTHER PERSON. SMH. GOD BLESS YOU FORREST
Glad to see I'm not the only one who feels that way
Yeah, that’s not cool at all.
he's already done 2 others so they don't need to put his name in
@@Maximilianfrehde That's why they should put his name since people who watch these videos should know him by now.
I think his videos are part of the “technique critique” which don’t have any names in the titles.
I'm so glad you mentioned Free Willy. It really was a real orca - his name was Keiko, and he lived here at the Newport Aquarium in Oregon for years. I remember seeing him countless times as a kid. When they decided to let him be free, it was a huge deal. It's just a terrible shame that he didn't live too long afterwards.
I remember being so disappointed when I read about that in a book at mu local library as a kid. Having looked more into it as an adult, it's actually harder to say whether it was a success or a failure given what is actually known about these animals now. Given that he died at the age of 27 years, that's actually not bad for a male orca given that they usually live up to their thirties. The biggest problem was that males are completely dependent on their mothers for their whole lives for protection and support, so because captivity severs that bond, males are exponentially worse off there. He may have done better if he was released to his original family, but it's unknown how they would've even found the exact pod. I have to say, he was at least better off than Tilikum, who was probably the worst possible case of a captive orca in all of history. At least he didn't become so understimulated and pushed around by other whales that he took it out on people, which may have been a factor for why he was approved for release in the first place.
Newport represent ✌️
He really gets the balancing act between trying to be accurate with the animals and making an entertaining movie. Also how, if it comes down to a choice, the moviemakers are usually going to prioritize entertainment.
Or budget 🤣
“So should you just go around riding ostriches, no” - well there goes my plans for the weekend

Ostriches have to be trained to let you ride them, because they can peck really hard and you're not gonna outrun them, as they can reach speeds of up to 70 kph.

Serial Killer Reviews Horror Movie Scenes
😂😂👍👍👍👍
you know they probably would do it because they know everyone would watch the video, but for ethical reasosn and avoidance of criticism they won't. But that video would be a banger for sure
“You see, this scene is completely unrealistic. It’s clear to me that the filmmakers do not understand how hard it actually is to saw through someone’s spinal cord.”
I love it when I find creative jokes I’ve never heard before
"Yeah, no... Chianti doesn't go with liver. Or fava beans."
I’m so glad he doesn’t pick apart every inaccuracy and understands when something is meant to be funny and enjoys it
Especially life of pi. He literally understood that those aren't meant as real animals in movie
Julian Rodriguez- I've just read through most of the comments here, & many of them were pretty good. But I found myself scrolling back up just to comment on yours. Because of all the lines I read, yours said what I caught myself thinking several times through all 3 of Forest's series here. It's great how he knows when to criticize, & when to just chill & laugh!
The amount of times Free Willy made me cry as a kid ...
A beautiful movie, and a head of its time in a way
I honestly started to cry when he was talking about the orcas dorsal fin and the emotional torture as he put it. I can’t understand why we have animals in captivity still to this day. Makes me so angry and absolutely devastated for all these animals that are stripped of their own right to be free for our amusement.
It depends on the establishment. If it’s a good place it’ll only take animals that can no longer survive in the wild due to poaching illness or injury. You can tell on which establishment are good or bad places if they let you touch the animals. If they let you touch them it’s not a good place those animals are drugged or abused or both. But unfortunately a lot of times in order to fund rescue efforts they have to have zoos to sell tickets to make money.
This man's parents knew exactly what he was going to be as an adult by naming him Forrest. Great vid!
Its actually funny how convenient it is good sir.
That's called nominative determinism. Same reason I'm studying marine bio...
@@skystygian hows that padded room you're in?
Forrest isn't his actual name, it's just the name his mother always called him. He spoke about it on Joe Rogans podcast
@@skystygian Then why is my surname "Skilling" and yet I do not have all the skills? I feel like the universe is pulling a fast one there.
I said out loud "wow" when he explained the precision of the orcas only eating the livers of sharks for the iron. Very cool!
The interesting thing is this is actually pretty common behavior for a lot of predatory animals. When there's an abundance of food, many will kill but only eat certain nutritional parts of the animal they killed and not bother with the rest. Another interesting fact is that you'll even find some animals, such as deer and cows, eating meat and things like bird hatchlings if they need certain nutrients they aren't finding in their environment.
Not cool for the shark!
They like whale tongue too. In Eden Australia, they hunted in partnership with the Aboriginal people for tens of thousands of years, when whites arrived, they liked the idea of that & so continued it, the orcas demanded the tongue in return for rounding up the whales out at sea & herding them into the bay & assisting the humans with the killing in what was known as "the law of the tongue"
So the orcas brought the whales in, tail slapped to call the humans out to do their bit, if the humans were too slow, they'd grab the whaling boat anchors & tow them out to the whales, the humans would harpoon them & then drag them back to shore (again frequently with the orca's help) & the humans would then tie the whale's body up in the shallow water overnight for the orcas to have first choice of the meat. The orcas would eat the tongue & leave the rest for the humans
Sounds kinda wasteful
@@johnv6806 because orcas are such successful hunters they can afford to be wasteful. besides any leftovers are an easy meal for fish, crabs, sharks, octopus, worms, mussels, shrimp, snails and other animals
We need a part 4, 5, 6 keep them coming, love this guy.
Free Willy isn't a positive movie about marine captivity, it's a positive movie about realizing that these beautiful creatures *don't belong* in captivity! Hence the title. The boy frees Willie.
That went over his head Being an expert doesn't mean you are a genius.
Can you imagine this guy as your college professor? Would you EVER skip his class? His way of explaining things is brilliant, yet simple. He is beyond engaging!
Not to mention all the stories he has
Retep would make more sense
Free Willy was such a sad movie and story, gave me a wake up call how we should treat animals at a relative young age.
The real life story of the orca who played Willy is also very sad. Irony is that, a movie about freeing an orca was portayed by an orca who was captive.
The Wake Up Call
Greatest movie of my childhood
@@linusdn2777 if only you knew the true story of that very Orca named Keiko. You should look it up.
Beautifully ironic
His respect for animals is truly beautiful. I wish more people had this capacity for empathy and understanding.
That actually made me cry when he talked about the emotional (and physical) unhappiness and torture orca’s are put through in that environment.
Critiques life of pi, a movie about a boy and a tiger: talks about fish and ignores the tiger
Realistically the tiger eats the boy when it's hungry. Not much explaining lol
Pretty sure he talks about the movie in a previous video which is why they probably kinda skimmed over it again
If you watch the movie you will understand why he doesn’t speak about the tiger
CARLOS PIÑEIRO Ik it’s not real in the end but still😂
He talks about Tiger behaviour in a previous video. Not about this movie though. I think its pretty clear that you can't live with a large predator in a small boat.
I love watching him talk about animals. You can see that he truly respects and love them and it's really inspiring. I wish more people were so passionate and aware of wildlife, it's beauty and importance to the world.
I just wish people had more respect and passion for nature in general
Great (necessary) way to start: be vegan.
@@yaboijesus9804 you're right, I realize that this way I could be agitating, but I just couldn't contain myself this time. Normally, I also prefer to be constructive, reserved and respectful when it comes to this subject.
Him "But Australians sound super funny!"
Me "Oi!......Actually i suppose you're right!"
I think the best thing about Forrest, other than how much he truly cares about animals, is I never feel like he's talking down to anyone, or "showing off" bc he knows so much.
Love this guy
Forrest Galante : "You have never been chased by a spider"
Me : *laugh in Animal Crossing*
Like I have been chased by a spider. But it was a mama wolf spider and I scared her. So my bad.
Roxane this is the comment I was looking for
Just live in Australia,, red back spiders love to chase you after spraying them with bug spray
Roxane Y E S
@@lucyluu02 :( that's mean!
My huntsmen chase me because I feed them, so they want to see if I have food for them
People found out that free willy was still in captivity after the movie came out. They raised millions of dollars to bring him out to sea. But the whale didn't know how to get food on its own, it also didn't know how to communicate with other whales so they shunned him, so he died alone. Sad sad tale.
True, sad story. But Orca's aren't whales; they're actually dolphins. I get that they're commonly known as "killer whales," and it kinda makes sense to just call them "whales" for short (which I really hope Forrest was doing in this video), but they're still dolphins.
@@WreckNRepeat cool thx, i didn't know that!
WreckNRepeat all dolphins are whales. The same way all panthers are cats...
@@hassanbayyan2207 Scientists aren't completely in agreement on that. But you're right, many taxonomists consider dolphins whales. And to your point, that's probably why the guy in the video called the Orca a whale.
WreckNRepeat the definition of dolphin is a “small gregarious toothed whale”...there is no debate.
All these 90's movies featuring wildlife bring back so many memories.
I really want to see this guy break down ‘The Meg’. Specifically the scene where Jason Statham has a knife fight with a giant shark.
I wasn't aware of Forrest's accent until I heard him say the word "command" about 14 minutes in. Now I can't unhear it. 😅
Brandon Parker and zebra lol
@@yfsgom Lol with "zebra" he says it both ways in the same sentence and I didn't even notice.
Some of his "a" sounds are less "Hand" and more "Java". I love that it's really his only accent. When I watch Extinct of Alive, it happens one or twice an episode.
His accent only starts to come out at around that point. Maybe he started getting really into the review at that point. Droopping into your native accent sometimes means people are letting go of all formality and becoming more comfortable.
@@CrazedComposure sometimes it happens with excitement or emotipn, too
I love that every once in awhile his Zimbabwean accent comes out. Forrest is an absolute angel!
14:19 was able to hide his African accent the whole video except on the word "command".
Yeah I liked it. He's honestly so cute 🥰
I love that you can tell he's got such a passion for what he does. I think it makes these videos that much more interesting
Imagine him just sitting with his wife watching Ace Ventura and be like:"That is not African elephant it's Indian, you can clearly see the difference".
Nemanja I actually think that’s what happened
I'm like that when they put up a picture of an alligator and call it a crocodile. When you know the difference it's like someone trying to pass off a fluffy dog as a cat. It's irritating.
I am that person lol
That’s me with my mom 😂
I can confidently say that nobody is unhappy about seeing Forrest on this channel a third time
Grey to the grave
Looking back at Free Willy. It just brings back such sadness. To see what we've done with these animals and how we treat them affects them.
Forrest’s accent was coming out in places more here and it’s so cute.
Forrest: "Australians sound weird"
Australians: *surprised pikachu*
I love that he can hardly get through a scene without pausing it every few seconds. As a fellow animal educator, I know how much we love to talk about the animals 🤣 I've also had people tell me they got chased by a 6 foot diamondback rattlesnake. Problem is, we don't have them in Northern California, and they rarely are 6ft in the wild. You're just running the same direction that it is fleeing.
Love how he didn’t bother to mention how the kid couldn’t have possibly managed to survive more than 5 seconds in a boat with a tiger
I was fortunate enough to have had my family move to Maui when I was 8 and lived there until I was 25.
Swimming with whales and dolphins is truly a magical experience I am very thankful to have had the privilege to do. While whales are heavily protected by law (as they come to the warm water with their calves) and it is forbidden to even approach them within 100 yards, if they approach you, you may swim with them as long as you try to maintain distance and _never_ attempt to touch them. Being on a boat and seeing them is one thing, but being in the water with them, hearing them sing and watching them play? It’s a nigh spiritual experience that humbles.
Seeing Orcas, or any such animal in captivity, is absolutely infuriating. Disgraceful of us.
Do: Psychologist Breaks Down and Diagnoses Movie Villains. That would be interesting.
omg yes!
I think they already did that...
I just saw one for The Joker. Haven't made it that far down on the list though.
hes the big brother that everyone could sit and listen to for ages about his job
You gave him a part 3. No one has ever gotten a part 2 or 3. If there’s a part 4, please consider using:

They already did The Grey
“All of the sudden he just goes into this DEMON raccoon face which I think is still adorable,”
“Maybe I shouldn’t,”
_”maybe I’m sick in the head”_
Actually in Ace Ventura there's a bit early in the movie where the villains horse and the elephant are established (I think it's called bubba or something) and the mansion was a host to exotic animal traders as the basis for his being there so that's why there are many non native animals in that scene...listen that movie was very important to me as a kid ok i cant help it
I'm so glad someone else noticed that. I was in full Ace Ventura 2 defense mode. Nailed it 😀
Him: I grew up in Zimbabwe.
Me: Ah, so that's why he called it a zeb-ra instead of a zee-bra.
jliller I was waiting for a comment like this
tbh I didn't even notice, we say zeb-ra in Ireland
I think most people call them zeb-ras and not zeebras
@@mudassar9272 Not in America.
I wonder if Canadians call it a zed-eb-ra?
You don't name them if you don't have them.

I absolutely love this guy! I could listen to him all day and I love how he clearly loves all animals. Thank you for this brilliant break down sir
We need a pt4 of this guy
He has a show on animal planet, extinct or alive, you can watch on animal planet's website for free :)
@@WhiiteMexiican really? Thanks mate!
"you've never been chased by a tarantula"
Well you sir have never played animal crossing new horizons for the Nintendo switch (2020)
So painfully accurate
Jacob P. Is. . . Is this an ad?! XD
"You've never been chased by a spider."
You've never met an Australian whitetail have you? Those things are aggressive and they DO run right for you if they feel threatened.
Also, I once had a garden spider in my vege patch follow me around while I pruned the beans it was living on. At one point it literally' jumped off the plant, hit me on the forehead, then landed back on the plant and reared up at me. I think that qualifies as being chased.
The Orcas fins are so sad. I live in Florida and my moms an elementary school teacher, every year they go on their field trip to sea world and it upsets me how animals being in captivity is being normalized and is made out to seem unproblematic to the kids.
Nothing is more powerful than the time I have spent in pods of orcas and when they look you in the eye as they swim by your boat, it’s almost indescribable how powerful the recognition is. I was amazingly lucky to have these experiences growing up in Alaska
OMGG THAT PART WHERE HIS HAVING AN ENTIRE MONOLOGUE ON HOW CUTE THE RACCOON IS TOTALLY ADORABLE🥺😭
I'm honestly kind of heartbroken by the fact that orcas curl down their fin because of being sad....
But Free Willy wasn’t meant to glorify captivity on orcas . . . the whole point of the movie was that the constraints of captivity were cruel for the orca which is why the movie was called Free Willy and why the orca ends up getting freed into the wild with his family.
"As weird as it sounds, it's a 'trained' spider." - As a tarantula keeper myself, I want to provide a little bit better of an explanation; if anything, the kid (or his stunt double) was trained! A tarantula or a spider doesn't really have the intelligence like mammals do to understand good or bad, but like he said, they can be used in movies as long as the person working with them knows how to read their BODY LANGUAGE! If a tarantula moves a certain way, you can tell whether it's ok with going where you want it to go (which honestly is most of the time), or if it's feeling particularly "nnnno! nope!" and won't go where you want it to go. So it's not the spider that was trained; it's the actor! Ta-daaa.
That makes sense.
But a spider can be more used to people handling it right? So it might be more chill and do what you want it to do.
@@snazzypazzy Spiders ain't got that level of intelligence.
Just cause I'm fascinated now...
Can you condition a tarantula to do simple tricks like 'push the button get a treat'?
Are they just incapable of reading a handler's social cues, or is their behavior so set that they straight up can't learn by association the same way as a mammal?
Do a video!
I like how his accent came out when he said command lol
My neighbors growing up had an Emu farm here in Tennessee. Some babies got loose one time and over the next few years you'd randomly see them here and there in the neighborhood fully grown. It was always weird walking outside and seeing a fully grown Emu(the farm had closed for years at this point) in the field next door.
I’m glad y’all keep bringing him back on, he’s so enjoyable to listen to and very easy to connect with
I would love his opinion on Tiger King
He did a video interview about it - czcams.com/video/rxsInA4CGYc/video.html
@@rinu1 Thank you
@@catebernal3997 You're welcome :)
Rinu Cz Thanks for the link! I’ve just finished watching Tiger King so this will be good to watch.
@@rinu1 Thank you so much for posting that! It was what I was waiting for somebody to say. So many people have been forced to back down by Doc that it isn't funny
Forrest's parents definitely knew which way he was going in life to give him that name.
I NEED MORE OF HIS VIDEO! he is chill, what he's saying is informative! I LOVE IT
The flying fish thing is the only one I can confirm as a civilian. It happened a bit in dusk though, but definitely did more of it at night. Nobody in our boat got a direct hit but they were literally jumping in our boat, and it was nuts.
1:00 That is equally depressing and grotesque.
It is, and that's why hes talking about it, to .make the young more foolish 16-25 year olds that watch this channel that have no clue about these things.
@@jaygio yeah and that's why this channel is good (or at the very least, it's ok). Don't act like you were born knowing these things; you'd only be fooling yourself. Or like one would be a fool for not knowing these kind of things after that age. If not for these youtube videos, most of us wouldn't have learned these facts, and there's no shame in that.
First Name Last Name feel better edge lord?
@@drows3y_tiger344 The guy is right, granted he's acting like a prick while doing it. But that's his problem. Don't encourage or respond to him. The key way to stripping an "edgy internet commenter" of their confidence is just by ignoring them.
Marine scientists have actually determined that the bent dorsal fin in orcas is due to a stronger pull of gravity against it since most orcas in human care tend to spend more time nearer to the surface of the water. Although it is related to their lives in human care, it is NOT due to depression or anxiety. Scientists have not determined that it negatively impacts their health or ability to swim either. This notion is a dated and anthropomorphized idea. It does occasionally happen in wild orcas as well.
Show him Sharknado, I want to learn my about sharknados so I dont get killed
Konnor there’s a video on vanity fair of scientist fact checking natural disasters and they cover Sharknado
I would love to see a part 4,5,6,7 with this guy
First time watching this and to be honest I love his review it's accurate, he acknowledges that they are a few things that he isn't completely sure of and he is an animal lover and encourages others to do so, exactly what we should be doing.
#absolutelove
Yes thank god he is back!!
I would be happy to watch 10 more episodes of this man
I was cornered by a skunk once. He just looked at me for a sec then walked off calmly. I got my self there. The skunk didnt force me there.
I once opened a drawer, and a chipmunk propelled itself out of the drawer and straight at my shoulder. It would have been hilarious to have a video of me screaming and batting it away. It dropped to the floor and ran off asap. Scared the heck out of me!
I love the way he says “commanded” when referring to the doggy and the horseys.
I love how much you smile when you talk about being a kid and riding ostriches!
I don’t know what’s better his knowledge about animals or his beard
The Orca made me tear up a little when he was talking about the dorsal fin
Don’t watch Blackfish.
@@ambergerhelper7852 Definitely not going to
@@ambergerhelper7852 you should. It shows how damaging captivity is for such animals. Very sad. But very good documentary.
"If you yell to your mom she knows its you"
Ehhh no.
I have two sisters and my parents always go through all of them if someone calls them😂

Forrest: You have never been chased by a spider!
Animal Crossing players: *well you see…*
This is one of my favourite series on GQ
Need to watch the Netflix show “Zoo”, that show will trigger your inner animal nerd
after crocodile freezing surroundings I was done with logic
There’s a scene where the lions pull a human into a tree, a behaviour more typically associated with leopards
Show looks like something to laugh at rather than take seriously.
Terra was an awesome documentary too
Its based on a graphic novel. To no ones suprise, it is almost nothing like the show
“You have never been chased by a spider”
Flashbacks to being chased by tarantulas in Animal crossing
As an avid childhood ostrich rider myself, I was told that the absolute upper limit that an ostrich could safely take as a proper ride (not like Forrest was describing) was about 50kg (like 100lb?). It's a wonderful, strange feeling to ride an ostrich, and I miss it!
On the third month of quarantine, GQ gave to meee, an expert breaking down an-imal sceeenes 🎶
And yet no one's gonna say anything about the monkey sound when the raccoon attacked
Thats still do this day my favorite movies. R.I.P Keiko they had him in captivity and when they finally released he died a year later to pneumonia.
Has little to no accent until he says "command" then it comes back full force lol. Took me off guard.
