But all of a sudden, your boat capsizes and you fall overboard into the still, warm water. Luckily, you’re a strong swimmer. Wait a minute. What are all those fishes? And why are they swarming?

**swims in deeper water to escape piranhas**
**gets attacked by a crocodile**
Bruh-
Crocodile don't swim in deep water dude they need air to breath....sharks would have been better.....wait what am I saying no it would not be...crap!!!
*D R O W E N D*
If you are in the water, do not piss or a candiru can enter your urethra
@@justsomeguywitharedeyes3472 I mean really deep water like the ocean...you will not find any crocodile's in there for sure
"piranhas are more afraid of u than u r of them"
me: did the piranhas tell u that😐
XD
Lol It rang his doorbell and said that
Everyone gangsta till piranhas speaking in perfect english
They arent scared of u if there are more than 5 of them but if a piranha is alone it will cower to the slightest rustle
Piranha attacks have often happened around the same time as their breeding season. This means the piranhas were most likely parents guarding nests.
This is why I prefer swimming at pools and avoiding places like the Amazon river.

I can't help but wonder what this guy has been through
Hahahahahhahaha🤣
I’m from North Brazil and as a kid my mother would let me swim in a river notoriously known for piranhas, saying “You not bleeding anywhere right? Yeah you will be fine.”
Irresponsible mother
L mom
You know, piramhas don't really like humans meat and they don't care about humans bood
1.Don’t swim and stay still
2.Don’t scream for help and make noise
3.Don’t go towards the shore go further into deep water and stronger currents
4. Be nice and wear thick gloves and shoes so they can get to your juicy bits faster
Not sure if I want to follow any of that advice ☝🏼🙅🏻♀️
"Be as still as possible"
"Piranahas are attracted to dead bodies"
Narrator: swim to deeper water to get away from the school of piranha
Crocodiles: here comes my next meal yum yum 😋
🤣
I watch this knowing if I ever get into any of these situations I’d just forget everything he said out of panic and fear
How to survive piranhas:
'Be as still as possible'
'Swim to deep water'
..ight, imma die then.
So This is what pirates mean when they say sleep with the fishes
They Also said make slow deliberate movements
;-;
I once had 7 Red Bellied Piranhas in an aquarium. Once per week we fed them 100 live feeder fish. After they were done eating I had to scoop out all the remains of uneaten body parts with a net. At that time I also cleaned the inside glass. They use to swim up to my hand and I would pet them down their side. Never once did I get bit. They were an inch long when I got them and 5 years later they were 7 inches long. I lost them in a 3 week electric power outage during sub zero weather. My Son just recently got some but he's not live feeding them. Remember to check before getting any. Not every State allows them in captivity legally. And don't ever release them in a pond, river or lake if you want to get rid of them. They are fascinating to watch.
The whole thing of them swarming or attacking swimmers or just people in general is a total myth. Its good for the movies but it's not real life
I like fish so If a piranha bites me im bitteing it back
Nope you are fucked by the other piranhas once they have the first bite
@@wildfire3986 ???
Bruh I’m a kid
Wild Fire WHAT THE HECK U SWARED
Lol
I got a dog food commercial with the dog jumping into a pond after I clicked on this vid

How to survive:
#1 be as still as possible.
#2 don't make notice.
#3 Swim to deeper water.
#4 Protect your hands and feet.
dont know how anyone can survive in water with these steps. you'll jsut be drown
1 and 3 tho
How do u swim if u have to stay still
Fun fact- piranhas won’t attack you unless you disturb there nest piranhas have no inclination to attack any living human being without provocation.
I don't know how I'm ment to be calm I would be flapping my arms everywhere.
A lot easier said then done lol 😂
@@sonniergoo187 same lol I would panic
@@sonniergoo187 why would u flap them knowing they will bite u if u go flapping around 💀💀.
Swim to deeper water: now look at the video on how to survive crocodiles in the deeper water

Well your right

They didn't think of that and so did i
"It's a hot, dry day in July when you decide to explore the Amazon basin by boat"
Old Steve: no, no i don't think i will
Step 6: don’t come into piranha infested waters
I love how in one scene one piranha looks at the camera and turns away
Piranhas don't just attack swimmers on-sight. Piranhas normally go after wounded or sick prey, and the story with the cow doesn't clarify if the cow was alive or not when put in the water. Also, nice job mentioning that piranhas guard nests. During mating season they stop forming schools and start making nests which they guard fanatically. Most piranha biting attacks have happened during their breeding season and were most-likely worried parents trying to make the swimmers stay away from their nests.
Piranhas have schooling systems? Nice
Me:* acting paralyzed*
Family: “cmon hurry up”
Also me: *getting eat alive *
Family: uR GRouNDED
I’d never be in a river like that in a boat like that lmao, I’d get so anxious
I just came in contact with this channel and feeling like it's very difficult to survive in this world ..how did I survive till now ?
These tips basically let me know, if I was in some water with piranhas I'm a goner... Thanks 😑😂
Lol
Me to
Jeweled Crown Matronymic piranhas rarely attack people unless their nests are disturbed they will eat deceased animals and occasionally humans though
...
Yep
"piranhas are more afraid of you than you are of them"
bullshit I don't pick someone's meat off their bones when I'm scared of them
oh just me ig ok
thank you so much for every video you do :D
Step 1: Stay absolutely still
Step 3: Swim to deeper water
Me: Nice video bro 👍
well just to lighten the mood:
1) A tourist walks near the Amazon river on a very hot day.
It's really hot and he wants to swim in the cool water.
He asks a local:
-Are there any crocodiles in the river?
The local guy:
-No, there are no crocodiles...
The tourist jumps into the water.
The local:
-...because piranhas ate all of them!
hear's another one:
2) Did you know that a piranha can devour a child down to the bone in less than 45 seconds?
Anyway, I lost my job at the aquarium today.
just kidding
3) There are 2 piranhas in a tank
No one told them how to drive it
lol niceeee
-Poop- *lol hahhahahahahahahhahaj*
The second one with....the child.....BlahhhH
the third one lmao
@@simon_off3358 lol ok
I just had my breakfast and enjoying some coffee, and I need to learn how to survive a piranha feeding frenzy.
Thanks for making this channel
“And it looks like it’s the species you now you find yourself swimming with.” I cannot tell you I gasped SO LOUDLY.
Lol someone give this dude a award for this vid
Me slouching in my couch watching this and thinking, "hmm maybe it will happen someday, better get ready for this while ignoring the test I have tomorrow.".
Work in a few hours and here I am still awake watching how to videos
It means a lot to me , your yt saves lives !!!!!
Another way: move slowly back to the boat that is probably less that a foot away from you
I don't know how I'm ment to be calm I would be flapping my arms everywhere.
A lot easier said then done lol 😂
Interesting video.
Thanks!
This helps a lot thanks.
Just for correcting misinformation:
The attack on bathers actually took place in the northwest of the state of São Paulo, Brazil, and not in Paraná, as was said in the video. 😉
It's funnier if it happened in Paraná..

Don't share your beliefs or opinions and don't challenge theirs.
If you dont want to get in this situation is to not go to the amazon
This is the most easy way to avoid this
Of course it is
Yep I agree ☝️. I wouldn’t go in that water either I don’t wanna be one of the next victims. And I’m also paranoid of sharks since they’re man eaters also so I don’t trust the ocean.
I play ur game and I always pick ur character I know ur the best motal combat for life
Great video
Thanks for the tips. I was just tramped in a river filled with piranhas add didn’t know what to do.
My question is, how do you stay there without drowning? I can hold my breath JUST for 30 seconds.
Float on your back
HEY!
Hey you... Yes,you.
How are you doing in life? What are your dreams... Thoughts.. what is life?
Life is a complicated thing... You should enjoy it ☺️ some may not like you,but who are they to judge? You are beautiful,smart,and an awesome being. Just being on earth with you makes me happy 💝🌍 You should calm down, follow your passions and be happy! Passions doesn't mean what the world wants or tells you,no. What YOU want to do. Sleep? Draw? Work? It's up to you! Go do whatever makes your soul fulfilled. Except if it's illegal- then... Mabey not.
Take a snack from me 😚🤲☕🍨🍪🍙🌮🍕🍫🍬
Expecting 1k likes? 😂😂😂😂😂
Ok thats pretty random
No,I just wanted to spread positivity and happiness ;-; is that too much to ask for
🍕 thanks
thanks thats nice🍫🍨 you have a good life
This channel's videos has the craziest segues.
Next July, when I for a change, feel a bit like boating on the Amazon and happen to fall in, I'll remember all this, no worries! I'll swim out to swift and deep water, presumably to eventually drown cos I can't return to shore without crossing these buggers in calmer waters. Or, alternatively, I sit still very still indeed. For how long is recommended?
Yeah, of course, I don't panic.
With all respect to the efforts made to provide this free video, the advice given is not practical at all.
I'll better boat at home.
