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.

Imagine living in darkness all your life and some dude shows up with 4 high lumen lights and blasts you and all your fish mates.
Same as aliens when they show up with high tech, we just like an equivalent of uncivilized monkeys
@@zondor8123 if aliens showed up to my house, I would also poop luminecently.
Id be pissed, like, hey! im trying to use the darkness to hide from predators and lure prey, and then this stupid ass light that got out of nowhere fucks everything up and blows my cover smh
@@zondor8123 nah their first technologies were the high tech stuff, they didn’t use the same stuff we did like rockets and such they just so happened to have a specific element abundant in their binary star system so they used it for antigravity purposes

Ok
I will give theme propositions

@@supremeworlok7631 good on ya
Someone should give them 30 days notice on their jobs
Every animal living down there:
Scary looking. Big teeth, big mouth, cursed walking fish.
Octopus: Yhea don't mind me I'm just a cute little octopus at inmense depths
I kind of want to see what the worms look like.
These deep sea fish often gulp their prey. Their extraordinary large teeth are typically to keep prey from escaping their mouths, not to bite into the prey.
@@marknc9616 Nope. Can't find who asked.
Facts tho
@@larsdamen9115 can't find who asked you either
@@mikethescienceguy Then what about you mike?
I just adressed the random ass fact.
Nobody asked why they have big teeth or mouths and nobody asked for you to pop in this comment section either.
I couldn’t help but laugh when the sea toad showed up. You’ve got David Attenborough’s majestic voice talking about the mysterious life and environment so far beyond our comprehension, and then they cut to the grumpiest fish ever sitting there like ☹️
🤣
Timestamp is 6:16 if I'm correct (sea toad)
I would too if I spent my whole life in complete darkness and then some giant "fish" made of weird material just shove a bunch of light at me
🤣🤣🤣
It's so cute omg the lil legs it has HSJSJJSJS
6:58 the crab is like "oop am I in the shot? Sorry"
sorry :(
Excuse me, coming through!

Awwwwww
the octopus was so cute
It looked like a cartoon character.
Anything narrated by David Attenborough is always the best!
No cap🥵

That's what I'm thinking whenever I visit my in-laws. Hey-oh!
This is INSANE.
Hard to believe those actually exist
Heavily recommend the channel *Natural World Facts* for more deep sea videos.
changed my life and allowed me to appreciate and understanding the deep sea. amazing video quality and narration as well.
You gotta get out more then
@@clare5687 You couldn't be more silly with your comment if you tried. You're acting like he can just go 1KM below the sea and see these things for himself. The even more ironic part is that we all stayed inside to seen this.
@@rawbmar1166 since they have deleted my comment 3 times now. Let’s try again. ITS JUST A SAYING. Idiot.
Is that PC enough for you ??

Some of the fish look scary, yet watching them swim all lit up in the dark like stars in the night sky is breathtaking.
More like drowning
They are coming for you
@@gaki8844 I'd love for you to tell me how on land. Go ahead, I'll wait.
Watching creatures like this always makes me think about how you are never quite able to draw something unique, simply because you can't imagine what it would look like. Makes you think about perception and how little we actually know.
Humans, for all their cleverness, can't imagine much beyond the realm of their mammalian minds. Our narrow-minded obsession with our methods of mating, eating, reproducing, and living make all other things seem alien to us. If we can't even understand such closely-related species as chimpanzees and gorillas, how should we understand such exotic species as these?
I think it benefits every human of any age to learn about these things, because it expands the human mind beyond its naturally narrow scope. We only believe what we believe because those beliefs are a part of our biological imperatives. But when we see another creature, with another "culture" for all intents and purposes, we find our perception of reality expanded. That's the real meaning of being human, I think; to transcend our basal instincts and find a way to love and cultivate all forms of life. Shame we choose to force our way of life on other animals, or judge them as bizzare for their unique natures. That's why I love animals, as well as humans who choose to behave in unique ways compared to other humans, such as children, elders, and the artistic, who break the mold of what their rigid species considers normal.
What makes that statement crazier is that whatever hodgepodge someone has thought of or drawn on paper has been seen in some way in real life.
It also Clears one thing that they are not made Automatically There is someone Who has created Them❤️
Well, obviously they aren't made "automatically" that makes no sense. Their parents have to meet, gotta do an intricate "dance" and then eventually squirt out a kid. No part of that is automatic. Unless you're talking about evolution, which also isn't automatic. It requires active participation, crazy to think that some magic man in the sky literally created every animal, like sat down, planned them out, etc. At least your avg non crazy religious person would say their "creator" created evolution itself, a far more palatable thing than saying he flat out designed every single organism, like you seem to be under the impression of.
@@EditzbyHussain idk how you came to that conclusion from all that, it does not logically follow
Watching the Midnight Zone is like watching space. Tiny flickering lights from animals representing stars and galaxies. It's the universe is replicated in our oceans.
We wuz kangz.
@@michaelsrite822 @@@,@@@,
Universe is almost perfectly scalable.
You're comparing or drawing similarities on these living forms on Earth to Space? So early conclusion without really reading the video or giving some time to think.
Things are not the way you see, friend.
i agree- what an idea!
The fact that they got this footage is incredible ❤️❤️❤️
Hi👌🌹🌹🌹🌹🙋🏾♀️
Hey there
It's beautiful
czcams.com/video/U8HlHrEau6It/video.html
I cant imagine all the time, effort and money invested on this!
THAT OCTOPUS AT THE END THO . CUTENESS OVERLOAAAAD ❤
The Narrator’s voice is a voice I’ve been hearing throughout my entire life and I must say it’s definitely one of my favorites.
It's Sir David Attenborough. He's a treasure!
Same here. And if you hear Attenborough narrating you know you're in for something interesting
Imagine not knowing his name 🤨
95 years old - an amazing man!
But you still don’t know his name?
Even though it's kinda creepy this place looks ethereal. I wanna float forever like that. No thoughts just ✨float✨
David's voice helped me through my postpartum/depression stage. A calm male voice, just flows into the ears, yes i recommend it..
I am surprised I haven't seen any comments about how utterly adorable the Flapjack Octopus is. Stay safe down there little buddy!
Good footage, a good narrator, good music...Such an awesome channel!
Nice lightshow in the deep :)
czcams.com/video/U8HlHrEau6It/video.html
Though some of those sound effects, tho...
David Attenborough...a national treasure!
Speaking of footage, who the hecc recorded the footage? its not like a cameraman wear a deep diving suit went outside and then filmed everything, no thats impossible...
or maybe thats what they WANTED ME TO THINK
This is honestly better than most movies I've watched over the last decade .
Incredible footages.
The footage they are able to capture is honestly amazing
I keep saying "what!!??!!" Louder and louder with each creature.....
there are so so many species that haven't been discovered yet.
I could watch this stuff for months, it is so fascinating, seeing all of the unique creatures that live down there; disco lights, odd shapes, just mind-blowing...
Exactly 💯💯 same same 🥺😭✨✨
Chimpanzees
7:20 SO CUUUUUTE!😍🐙
The narration and the sound effects make the documentary an Oscar level movie.
Planet Earth has won Emmys.
I'm not so sure about the SFX... BBC sometimes overdoes it
Please don't spoil this by mentioning the Oscars.
I think sounds effects are ridiculous,
"the midnight zone" That is a perfect name for a band
I’m borrowing it for my band.
We seriously need to protect Sir David Attenborough at all costs.
Yea unfortunately his 95 years old so we won’t be blessed with his voice for much longer besides what videos we have from the past.
This comment sadly can't age well.
Sadly you cannot protect him from time itself
Sir Attenboroughs are delicate rare creatures we can only encounter on deep sea of BBC documents
Protect him like he’s a leatherback turtle
I love that you can tell when these videos will be David. Almost no one else starts his voice overs like him. They usually just go into it immediately he waits with that great background music and creates anticipation
David Attenenborough You're a gem
czcams.com/video/U8HlHrEau6It/video.html
@@Mavlonofilm this link is for his site stupid things he doing there
It's Sir David actually.
That's not my name, but thanks
Without the audio this can easily be something out of Lovecraftian lore. Well done.
Respect to the cameraman for risking his lives so we can get these shots.
He’s got a body of steel to withstand all that deep sea pressure!
This might have been taken by an ROV.
When David or Richard Attenbourough (sp) narrates anything; it's like magic. The listener is comfortable with his talking but doesn't notice it yet they learn from the discussion. What a storyteller! They don't make them like that anymore!
At times,I despise some of the technology we all have now. This is NOT one of those times. I'm grateful for being able to watch something so amazing on a portable computer we call phones now..
Beautiful. This struck me with amazement. The nature is SO unbelievably beautiful.
6:23 Imagine you're just eating at the table and you look down and see this thing staring into your soul, and then it barks
That octopus in the last is so cute
Daily reminder, You survived another week in a very tough world, even though at times it felt like you wouldn’t, and I’m so proud of you !
All fun until fishes start walking at midnight.........
The creatures Sir David Attenborough has introduced us to is nothing short of amazing. And who else would you rather have narrating.
Props to the cameraman holding his breathe to record this
Thank you for single-handedly keeping up my hopes and fascination for this planet, BBC.
That octopus at the very end was so cute.
No matter how I repeat this, I never get drained of. It's a masterpiece
So what I'm learning is, I was well justified to be scared in subnautica and now I know its even closer to reality then I thought possible.
Nothing looks and sounds so beautiful.. Than the dark deep sea, narrated by David.
I just always love the sounds that they put on the animal movements. Ive watched spiders that sound like lions before and its just great.
Absolutely phenomenal! From the sound design to the footage!
The more I watch these videos, the more I fall in love with the marine life
Every time I watch these videos, all I could think of his how amazing these cameramen are, and how amazing their cameras are too.
It's amazing to think that despite all of our technology and all of our achievements on this planet and yet we still know so little about what is in the our Oceans and are still finding and learning about different creatures and habitats that exists on our tiny home.
Thanks for sharing this. Great effort by the team and Sir David.
It's an another universe within this universe. Loved to see all those amazing creatures.
That octopus was super cute. I want 10.
Fantastic creatures. I understood once again that life itself is stranger and more colorful than any fiction.

Till 5:30, it looks like they are surfing through galaxies. And after that it feels like they landed on a random planet. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘Super job. Words are not enough to praise them.
I'm sure those dramatic sounds effects exist under water too lol 🤣
I HOPE SO!!! 🤣🧐
Way to go BBC! David Attenborough you are a legend! I absolutely love these videos!!!
We really know so little of our planet ! Thank you sir David Attenborough and BBC for bringing out this wonderful program
Deep sea David Attenborough is my favorite David Attenborough
the Flapjack Octopus is one of the most and few cute things in the deepest point of the sea
Just imagine what else is still undiscovered if this is what we know
We know next to nothing of things yet to be discovered!
czcams.com/video/U8HlHrEau6It/video.html
98% ocean is undiscovered
@@Mavlonofilm I'm reporting you
I’m speechless. Amazing footage…Amazing commentary.
I love BBC Earth. We need many many more docu's from BBC Earth!
Love how the crab in the background (6:50) was like "Don't mind me just passing by"
As always, stunning photography by people who have more patience than a full hospital….and of course, David Attenborough seals the deal..
What is more fascinating is how they captured all these footage. Hats off
ikr the midnight zone is 1000m-3000m its crazy how they got down there
The sound design for this is absolutely amazing
That frog fish is really really cool!!! I’ve never seen anything like that. The sea cucumber was very mesmerizing too
Honestly, we search for alien life, but the Earth seems quite alien to me although we live there.
Exactly we don't even know what's in the rainforests let alone what's in our own oceans
I always said that
A fish with feet? I’ve seen it all!
U never heard of handfish?

6:50 eons later: look that's how our ancestor first walk on the sea bed!
@@jaytgk3861 Lol, exactly right? But still; he does look sort of cool in a dopey sort of way. The crazy luminous creatures a bit above the floor are far more interesting.
I’m always humbled to see such creatures so uniquely created and yet we know so little of them. Great video.👍✨
You truly will be amazed for anyone in this life time to be able to travel to the abyss of the sea and see all the amazing creatures down there. A slu of different breed of fish and other aquatic animals. This world is amazing.
I could watch this stuff and listen to this guy for many days straight.
Educational, beautiful, mysterious. Let's work to save our planet people!
Absolutely amazing

"...and delicate sea cucumbers."
*shows us an alien*
Stunning that these creatures make those musical sounds in time with the light displays
As great as Sir Dave is, I wish I could see a version of this that’s just the footage and audio. It would be like a horrid eerie nightmare
Well bbc got the footage still I bet
pretty sure there is some sort of 10 hours of deep ocean footage video or something like that
Incredible Music makes this footage a x100 better.
I didn't know that our earth has so much beauty deep inside the sea. It's like a piece of heaven.
Nobody Live Wallpaper When We Touch 1:18

This was always my favorite of the Blue Planet series, going into the Deep!
amazing that so much life can live at such dark depths
Very nice 👍👍👍
Hats off to the camera crew 👏👏
Yeah the camera guy had to hold his breath for a very long time
wouldnt they drown without hats?
I love the sound effects.
You've definitely done this right.
I think the flapjack octopus is one of my new favorites it’s so friend shaped!!!
