Taken From Blue Planet II
This bold cinematic experience takes viewers on a magical adventure across the greatest, yet least known, parts of our planet - our oceans. Since Blue Planet aired in 2001, our understanding of life beneath the waves has completely changed. Travelling from the icy polar seas to the vibrant blues of the coral atolls, this series shares these astonishing new discoveries. Meet the strange octopuses lurking in the depths of the Antarctic Ocean. Watch giant trevally fish leap to catch birds in mid-air. And ride on the back of a hammerhead shark as it attacks. Inspiring awe and wonder, Blue Planet II reveals surprising new places, charismatic new characters and extraordinary new behaviours.

Eels and octopuses are master crab hunters.
Crab: *bubbling intensifies*
*in a terrified way*
@@hfhudgeuteytr Bubbles of fear and anguish
Morays will pull divers air hoses out and look at them with a expression like a cat that knocked your drink over. They are scary intelligent
Hello
And eat you all aliveeeeeeee!!
Crabs: *Crosses water into another section*
"Phew, I think we're safe from them"
Eel: *INITIATE SNAKE MODE*
Lool

Sometimes we forget how lucky and safe we are as humans. Imagine if going to the shop for a loaf of bread means you're being hunted down by a giant dragon and the Kraken. That's what these poor crabs face twice a day lol
Yeah, very funny.
Try going shopping in Ukraine, or Yemen. Your safe life is an anomaly, which will not last forever.
@Speaker Roach PMSL Very true 😂
We are not lucky, we just simply got into the dominant position of eating chain
I guess you are not buying crabs for dinner? Lol
The fact that someone was able to capture a single crab running away from two different predators in so many angles is so amazing
Lucas, Chico, those are different ones each time. and the sound is fabricated entirely too.
@@PHlophe well the result is amaizing nonetheless
@@PHlophe ofc the sound is fabricated, you won't hear crabs jumping with such detail in real life, nor them making bubbles that loud
You sure it's the same exact crab? It's the magic of compiling a lot of different shots into a neat story. Could've been 10 different crabs in this video, they're pretty much all stunt doubles.
@@TheEchelon yes, a saw a vid they tried to do with Zebras and realised this. If you check the credits of some of these shows they have story writers and editors. They film a bunch of footage and try to rearrange it to form some sort of narrative people can connect with.
This has better plot development than most Hollywood movies. I was literally on the edge of my seat.
To be fair, that's a pretty low bar these days.
yeah , Gandalf is so great
on the edge of my toilet*
Funny you say that, they remind me of the face huggers in the Alien franchise!
so do i
The fact that some eels can move on land like snakes terrifies me.
Imagine they got the size of whales? We'd all be on the menu.
@@ericno4u We'd survive them and kill them for dinner
And some snakes live in the sea...
40 yrs ago, my local river became so bad, that fish were dying in there hundreds, we had a local panic, all hands on deck to save as many as possible.. I was 10 at the time. My greatest memory was finding like 3 foot eels in fields hundreds of meters away from the river.. We saved as many as we could find 👌still amazed to this day.
Lol gay we did love to see eel on the land to catch easily n fry with many ingredients
I’ve never found myself rooting for a couple of crabs so much in my life.
2:46 me and my wife were yelling, "come on, get there!"
Imagine if each trip to the grocery store was this hazardous.
I mean, isnt that the summarization of life of a non americans in america? /s
@@arlynnecumberbatch1056 Do you believe every bit of propaganda you read. A video about nature and you are that brainwashed your mind immediately compares predatory eels and octupus to normal every day Americans as if they are some kind of super predators waiting around the corner to murder people as they go to a store, did you ever think when you were young you would be this thick and brainwashed.
@@anothercynicalbrit6451 I think you have to read it in a sarcastic context. I don‘t live in Amrica so I can‘t relate to this situation, but maybe Arlynne is referring to traffic or criminals.
Maybe even gun owners, since they‘re mostly legal in the US.
But she/he is certainly not calling american citizens „predators“.
@@anothercynicalbrit6451 Dang, you couldn’t a little sarcasm/humorous joke? Then you pop up with the words “Propaganda” and “Brainwashed”. You do be triggered
@@arlynnecumberbatch1056 Oh please. You out-of-towners aren't nearly as interesting as you believe, but your supercharged ignorance of what Americans do is staggering.
This isn't "Crab vs Eel vs Octopus"
This is just "Crab vs Eel+Octopus"
Yeah I was expecting some eel vs octo action, that was disappointing. Its not even really "crab vs," the versus insinuates there is a fight to be had.
Well technically the eel and octopus are competing for the same food source so you could say they are rivals.
Ikr, I was expecting maybe the octopus was going to be hunting the eel sort of like karma lol
2v1 not fair for my crabby buddies 😢
wrong
3:40 me coming out of my room to get lunch
2:22 I can’t stop laughing at this betrayal that crab straight up yeeted the other one into the water as sacrifice 💀💀

Beautiful Double big rainbow 🌈 ❤️🌈❤️
Best nature capture
I suppose because it is slightly in slow motion which makes it look like the physics are broken xD
They can also swin well
It was weird for me to see an eel and an octopus on land.
@@staticvoidmain it's weird for them seeing humans underwater
Seeing aquatic animals move across land is really something
Bruh when that eel slithered over the rock the Crab was like: “OH HAIL NAH”
And then when the octopus come out the crab starts foaming at the mouth 💀
The background music made the crab's escape even more spine chilling.
agreed
hello! spoiler alert!!
Now I heard about the iguana escaping from the snakes was fake, or morelikely nicely edited. I hope this one isn't
Lame
Oh, come on! Your comment appeared for me before I saw the end of the clip. You need a spoiler alert. 😄
I LITERALLY SCREAMED “NOOOOOO!!!” When the crab got caught by the eel towards the end. I love nature.
Forever Handsome, I scream the same haha, I was like "No No nooooo the eel got him. nooooo"
Loll, If you carefully watch there is a cut between two shots, BBC showed another shot where Crab succeeded. the actual crab you are referring is long dead in the first shot.
@@cosmicdust2192 no way, it still a lot of fun
Oh crap oh crap oh crap was literally on my mind
me too
Crab crew at 1:40 collectively nopeing tf out of there is a golden moment. The cinematography on this is pure class
2:38 Mr Krabs when he sees someone pick up a penny
This makes me realize that I've actually never seen a crab jump before
I aint never seen no eel slither across land before neither
@@AveryBlueRemix I have believe me it's terrifying
Not gonna lie, I have an actual true phobia of crabs. Don't know why. But now seeing them jump like this....I won't sleep for a week. Fml
Never seen them gallop, either. It's like they switch between horse mode and frog mode instantaneously.

Crabs: o_o

Imagine your casual walk to nearby grocery store as such as perilous.

Could listen to Attenboroughs voice all day. So relaxing and soothing it draws you in so you have no choice but to take in his knowledge
Is that an allegory for being gay?
@@TheStoneymoses you’re thinking wayyyyyyyyyy to far😔
Hopefully he’ll still be around for a while yet, he has such a distinctive and calming voice!! He’s a great person too :0
Yeah he’s daddy af
agreed
4:23 if you listen closely you can hear the crab shouting
This is a perfect representation of the quote “this meal is worth dying for”
I cant believe i just yelled at my screen for some crabs. The cinematography and the story telling are off the charts as always 👏👏
Me, too!! I never cheer for the crabs! I actually looked around when I did it, even though I'm the only one watching this.
incredible footage!
Same here
Whoever does the enhanced sound effects is a hero. It makes watching animal shows so much more immersive!
You know it's someone in a sound box with something like a box of water and thimbles on there fingers for the crab legs 🤣 I saw one before where the sound of a polar bear compressing snow was custard powder inside a rubber glove pressed together next to the microphone. Genius
@@bigsteve6729 honestly. I think fabricating and sampling the whole atmosphere is more impressive than holding a microphone out in the wild.
I love to close my eyes during movies and imagine what made really that sound. Its a fun game
@@vyl4650 Their filming uses time lapse so it wouldn't be possible to get accurate audio.
@@bigsteve6729 I agree, I've always been interested in the Foley arts. As a kid learning they broke celery for breaking bones & used coconut shell halves for horse's footsteps it intrigued me.
But as an adult knowing that they do things like crinkle clear cigarette wrappers bc it sounds more like someone blowing smoke than someone actually blowing smoke reminds me that things aren't always as they seem so I need to verify anything important B4 I jump to conclusions.
That's interesting.. One pet peave of mine in regards to nature documentaries is the overdubbed sounds.. I HATE them hahaha. It's so fake I can't not dislike it. I more often than not prefer to watch amateur videos just because the sound is actually REAL. Like, it's a documentary.. it's supposed to showcase nature in it's real, raw form, but instead they have those AMAZING images with a fake ass sound.. it ruins it for me, but I think I'm the exception 🥲
BBC sure knows how to make a gripping documentary. I've never rooted so much for a soft shell crab ever in my life! Go little crab!!
4:09 me running out of the ocean when something touches my foot
when you see crabs jump high with fear in their eye that's a moray...
Criminally underrated.
Brilliant!
dont know what they're missin

I regret I have but one upvote to give.
What's it called when a crab is walking to its part time job?
A side hustle.
shut up
🤣🤣🤣🤣
*Boring*
Ba dum tssss
@@rexcentx2254 shut up
Much better drama than anything Netflix has thrown out over the last few years.
3:13 eel becomes a snake
I'd be scared too, seeing all those creatures that belong in the water all of the sudden moving on land. Very spooky.
Almost creepy
That's what the ancient insects say when they saw our ancestors moving to the land. Very spooky indeed.
Imagine, your math teacher follows you home...
The way that the cameraman was personifying the little crab is amazing.
Jumping crabs, their actually beautifully colored, it's amazing how self preservation influences their movement.
Imagine just trying to get lunch and get back home just for an eel and an octopus coming after you 💀
I imagine the bubbly noises coming from the crab are translated roughly into "oh shit", "God help me", and "this always happens on a Tuesday!"
“He Got Jimmy!”
I never rooted for a crab in my life. But today I do!
I would never get tired of watching Blue Planet.
The scenes, shots, cameraman are always amazing..
4:40 "Another happy landing" - Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Such a beautiful and intriguing video 🦀
When Attenborough is the narrator, you know you’re gonna watch it ‘till the end!
You forgot to say "sir"
Please add the Sir to his name.
He has truly earned the respect.
Lol true. Such a shame he is an atheist though. Such a stubborn sir!
Until he says with his distinctive voice "pastures". reminds me of the planet earth series.
I always feel much more engaged when it's Attenborough speaking
Avengers end game is the most ambitious crossover.
Crab, eel and octopus : hold my sea water
Aquaman Sequel much? I know it's DC but heh!
you mean "hold my water"
1:57 crab hunter said: hi… :)
3:01 I don't know, I just loved those eyes!
I've been watching animal documentaries my entire life and yet this is my first time seeing:
1- A jumping Crab and
2- A moray Eel walking on ground like a snake..
am I the only one here?
nah me 2
I thought it was only me.
An eel on dry land?
@@rinzo2009 that was scary for sure 😅
Yeah, the eel on land isn't fair.

Hey, mans was trying his best.
@@Gaelek13 they dont bother to
I keep coming back to this video from time to time. Love how tenacious and deadly nature is
Yes, "light-foot" crab! Already seen various times by now, but its elegant locomotion ability, especially leaping & very secure soft landing, never fail in fascinating me! Gorgeous!
ok
I've grown up watching Attenborough. Everytime I hear he has a new series I think there can't be much he hasn't already shown us and boom, jumping crabs, moray eels and octopus hunting out of water.
IKR Attenborough is my entire childhood. He single handedly sparked my interest in zoology and what would eventually be an interest in science as well
You would have to be 80+ years old to have not grown up watching him
As always the camera crew did a great job !
Yes
Seriously, to think about the number of takes I need just to get a good photo of my roommate’s cat in her sleep. And then this.
Beyond great !!
The fact I got emotionally attached to that one crab. Almost cried when I saw it get dragged down. Then relieved when it got back up and ran.
The way the crabs jump is one of the most adorable things I’ve ever seen)
BBC sure does an amazing job with the animal documentaries. Such quality. I salute all the camera and editing crew. If it wasn't for their skill and patience, who knows how these documentaries would look like.

Oui d,accord merci a eux c,est cela la loi de ma nature elle n,a pas besoin de nous cette harmonie océanique est forte formidable
As much work as each of these animals have to do to get something to eat, makes me appreciative for the conveniences I have. Amen.

We are all blessed.
AMEN
Thankful thankful :)
I swear that this didn't even cross my mind.
Gratitude.

You make this look like a movie. Terrifying. The camera angles, the crab's own movements as seeing the moray, the octopus coming out of nowhere, the ambience, everything.

This narrator is amazing. Hes never had a bad video
It's actually interesting and kind of surprising, that soft jelly creatures eat hard and shelled ones...
thats what she said
Octopuses have hard, sharp beaks. Without them, it couldn't eat crabs.
Why do you think the crabs have shells
@@DieFlabbergast well actually they have powerful arms with a strong grip and some can use tools, so even then depending on the octopus they might be able to bash it on a rock
It's funny how the crabs just fling themselves, like if someone kicked them in the ass lol

1:26…..Eel: DID SOMEBODY SAY ALL YOU CAN EAT CRAB LEGS?!!!..😂🤣🤣😂
Can you imagine if you went out for a jog in your neighborhood and there was a very real chance you would run into a lion, a hyena, and a bear? Most humans simply do not understand what it is like to be any other animal on earth. We are terribly well insulated from the food chain.
So what do you suggest? You want me to be afraid every second of my life or tag big banner along everywhere i go that says be gratefull or be eaten?

One thing I thought was interesting was that these particular crabs were jumping and swimming forwards. Crabs usually walk sideways. I just wondered why these are different? It works for them. Pretty cool crabs. 😎😎😎
This is how my grandparents went to school everyday.
My heart was racing when that crab was hauling ass to the rock 😂
United we stand divided we fall hail the crab army
This really makes me appreciate the fact that i was lucky enough to be born a human, at the top of the food chain because the idea of being chewed on by some massive water dragon like just because i went to take a sip of water is utterly terrifying.
And even we often get pushed around by the tiniest of organisms through viruses.
Watching those crabs run and jump was adorable 😃
"The feeding grounds are separate from the breeding grounds eh? Well, at least they only have to do it once"
