- The coolest fish you've never heard of. The plainfin midshipman can sing, survive hours without water, defends its eggs with its life, and even grunts! In this episode, Sarika tries to convince Anthony why the plainfin midshipman (a fish you’ve probably never heard of) is perhaps the coolest fish in the world. #TheNatureOfThings101 #plainfinmidshipman #singingfish #TIL

Fall asleep, meditate or study to the soothing (creepy?) song of the plainfin midshipman: th-cam.com/video/22Eo5o6NyYU/w-d-xo.html
To the editor: next times do less visual/auditory restlessness, such as a random shaky cam shot of a fake alien for a split second, or relatively loud overstimulating 'background' music. Just because the editor has ADHD, doesn't mean he should spread his curse to other people.
Or slowly but surely lose the cream of your audience to whoever is willing to swallow this bad editing
Oh yeah, I loved that movie😊
Wow! Thanks so much for this video! ❤
Btw I didn’t even notice background music.
It reminds me of a boat horn. (also not sure what the editing comment was about.)
40ish years ago as a kid I was playing in the tide pools around Avila Beach, CA and found one of these things. I told everyone I found a fish under a rock on dry land and it grunted at me, but nobody believed me.
Today I'm vindicated! Fascinating!
Congratulations on proving ALL these years later a fish truly did GRUNT at you.
From Lyin Bryan to Vindicated Hilderbrand
That's so cute and funny... 😅
The kid in me is stoked for the kid in you 😉 🐟 🙌🏻
I am truly happy for you. I once saw a pig open a faucet to drink water. I chose not to tell cos, you know what. I told the story about 30 years later for the first time.
Had a catfish repeatedly grunt at me when I was a kid fishing and was freaked out and started crying. I was the one who caught it and it was pretty big. But I was absolutely terrified of him. Thankfully my dad calmed me down and put it back in the water.
For humming at such a low frequency, those fish actually deserve the name “bass”.
Base
😂😂 I see what you did there‼️‼️ You're cool!
Good one
Underrated comment of the day.
😂😂😂😂😂
I was a child when I watched Don Knotts in the movie “The Incredible Mr. Limpet”. It’s the story of a man that loves fish so much he becomes one after falling into the water. He becomes a WW2 hero when he discovers as a fish he can make a loud bellowing sound to warn the navy of the presence of enemy ships. This fish makes that story come alive for me!
I loved that movie!
Same loved the movie wish they make movies like that for kids again
What a great flick. Ghost & Mr Chicken was awesome too... love Don Knotts
that movie blew me away because it had "cartoons" inside a real movie. I had just turned 8 and i was still easily impressed
Yes! I loved these movie. Thanks for reminding me.
I have no clue why the algorithm shows me this, but I love it. Very interesting.
Tha'ts how I found it too. Great discovery!
Me too 😊
That fish was a second away from being called a farting rockfish.
😂😅
🤯🤣🤣🤣
How about "The Farting Singer"? 😂😅
Probably is by some!😂
@@deemushroomguy I think there was a Frenchman in the 18th century who went by something like that. Apparently he was quite a flatu...list? Fartist?
0:42 The captions said " *FART SOUND* " when the fish made the noise! 😂😂😂😂bahahahahahaha
Hahaha I just checked, it's hilarious lol
What's wild is, I was listening to her say how beautiful they sound, then I heard the noise and bursted out laughing cuz it sounded like a fart, only to see your comment a second later.
@@Ria-sd2ex right! I literally spit my coffee when i was watching. I wasnt expecting that.
@@askani21 later on in the film it changes the sound description too so it makes it even funnier that that one fish was a fart fish 🐟💨
@@askani21 Yes! Too funny.
Sounds kinda like a ship horn in the distance.
Exactly !!!!
I used to sleep with a fan near me all the time. It sounds like that fan as well lol.😂
It sounds like a fart
I thought so too!
This got me thinking that maybe some of those times that I thought I was hearing a ship horn, I might actually be hearing these plainfin midshipmen fish.
It sounds like buddhist monk chanting in a monastery, which is relaxing and meditative
Imagine going out to the sea at night before humans were everywhere with our light and noise pollution and hearing the sound of their mating call and seeing the gentle glow is bioluminescent algae as the waves strike the rocks beneath the starry expense of the Milky Way.
Magic
@@WOK-YT-handle Mermaids
I understand how ancient people's believed in the divine and had different names for their gods. What a spiritual experience that would be if you were in a deep meditative state. 🧘🏾♀️
Expanse.
Also no wonder mermaids, sirens and similar tales were so comum across multiple civilizations - how you explain hearing the most eerie stuff coming from the waters?
I love how she gets us excited about science because she is so passionate about it when she speaks
I’m so pleased to have lived long enough to see such a change in how underwater creatures are understood instead of being dismissed as a lower order of animal. Now more people understand that like land animals, water animals feel pain, live interesting and complex lives, etc.
Well, they are kinda a lower order of animal. Yeah they still have lives and behaviors but they are not as complex as human anatomy.
@@phoenixdavida8987 More and more research proves that wrong.
@@sharonkaczorowski8690
I would say, "just as complex", just a different order.
@@phoenixdavida8987Not a fish.....but are you familiar with the biology of an octopus?
@@ericparker163 Yes. Amazing. Watch ‘My Octopus Teacher’.
My daughter wants to be a marine biologist, I'm totally sharing this with her. Thank you
Amazing! We love that for her 😃
I love her passion and communication style ☺️
She's pretty great and certainly loves the plainfin midshipman. You can catch more of Sarika and Anthony in The Nature of Things 101 or in our full-length documentaries: gem.cbc.ca/the-nature-of-things
I was thinking the same thing. Her communication style is just ❤❤❤
This was great! Thanks so much for this wonderful documentary.
And she's beautiful, and her smile, and she's named Sarika. Sigh...
This delightful scientist just made me fall in love with a fish I didn't know existed a half hour ago! NGL, I have a bit of a girl-crush on her, too!
I'm no scientist, but I'm very passionate about ravens because I befriended one 8 years ago, and now his whole family hangs out at my lonely off-grid ranch where I have learned so much about them and how extremely intelligent they are.
It makes me wish I had studied zoology in college and specialized in corvids. Amazing creatures!
I wish I was a good writer, because I have so many fantastic experiences with these birds.
“Far over…the misty mountains cold… to dungeons deep, and caverns old..”
I think that’s what the fish are singing. 😂
We must away…
The Geoff Castellucci fish. If you know, you know.
😂😂😂😂
❤
Hilarious! Instead of Neil Finn singing, it's Plain Fin and he's a midshipman singin a sea shanty...Far over the misty shallows cold, in rocks we wait...to find our gold. She'll come and stay ere break of day, she will find us...she knows the tune!
They OM chant and it sounds divine… like a group of monks chanting it!
Thats how it sounds to me too
Om is Hindu sound
It’s practised today
@@brucewayne5916Buddhism is derived from Hinduism
Hinduism is quite recent. It adopted various Budhist concepts.
@@hawkingdawking4572 idiot
Gowtham Buddha himself was Hindu before establishing buddishm
2:27 is what you came here to see, skip the contrived mock interview
No you absolute bellend 😂
Thank you so much!!!
THESE FISH ARE JUST LIKE FROGS IN A WAY, THEY SING TOGETHER THE SAME WAY FROGS SO AFTER IT RAINS.
Yes, they are the link between frog and fish: breathing in air, singing.
I love their froggy faces! What a unique and fascinating animal.
@@LazyIRanch They should be called Frog Fish 😂.
And they breathe through their skin like frogs!
@@OrchidNectar exactly!
I have never seen a video like this on TH-cam. Fun, light hearted story telling with a scientific theme intertwined.. puppetry, reals models of the fish, footage, audio and authentic laughs. Genius!
Now I want 1 hour long recording of the plainfin midshipman fish's humming sound on SPOTIFY!..
standby.....
As you wish... th-cam.com/video/22Eo5o6NyYU/w-d-xo.html
@@CBCdocsYou guys are really sweet.❤
12 hours of plainfin midshipman mating hum for your listening pleasure 👂 tap that link above!
@@CBCdocs These mad lads did it!!!!!!❤
I love how they look like they have rows of bedazzled jewels around their... throat? neck? whichever.. it looks like little diamonds
Sarika, you sound like the type of marine biologist that ignites the interest of science and discovery in children... and that must be a most fulfilling task!
Love her voice, could listen to her explanations for hours
She's a great teacher. Her passion is infectious.
They're ohming. This is probably the coolest natural phenomenon I've ever heard of. ❤
Lol natural phenomenon. It's their mating call.
Spiritually enlightenment midshipmen fish is spiritually enlightened
She was a delight to listen to. It's this kind of person that makes kids love the natural wirld
She’s adorable. She makes me want to learn more. Her delight of fish is contagious 😊
The puppets caught me off guard, they were great! I literally said " Wait, WTF WAS THAT?!" and rewound it several times to verify,lol 🤣😜😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂
Lol same and even more so because I'm slightly delirious from lack of sleep
I love the puppetry and stop motion story telling! This fish is not hideous at all....
Aww, we think the same. 😍
"...not hideous..."; come on now. Those fish are beautiful.
Im an artist and love to paint iridescent things; bugs, butterflies, birds and now apparently fish too. When iridescent and chameleon paint came to be, my first time painting a dragonfly as it really is, I felt like I died and went to heaven! These guys rows of “pearls” on their sides and chin is extraordinarily mesmerizing. I gotta google some reference pics asap.
This video is very creatively done.
@@janemiettinen5176 Love these paints! The first thing I thought of was looking at a begonia leaf and flower petal, in the sun, which also have amazing dots of iridescence!
That sounds like Buddhist monk chanting…comforting.
I hear them as Benedictines or Dominicans. Same, really, just different songs! It's beautiful & hypnotic!
This is so underrated. The presentation is quite different from the usual animal science videos. The atmosphere here is so warm, cozy, casual, and whimsical due to the visualizations and the music.
The more we learn about nature, the less we know, how beautiful, how harmonious❤
I caught one of these around 17 years ago while night fishing off Pepin Island, New Zealand.
Made me jump out of my skin when I was retrieving the hook (Barbless) from his mouth and he growled at me.
They're amazing little things.
It sounds like the humming of a big boat coming near the coast. 😊
I love that this critter's defensive vocalization sounds like an angry whoopie cushion!
At the beginning it sounds like monks chanting “Om”! I think its relaxing and beautiful. It must be sending great vibrations to the residents and enhancing their lives at that meditative frequency. Wonderful.
This is beautiful and sounded like the “om” of meditation. Truly magnificent. Without context, it’s easy to mistake this for something dangerous, but when you know that they are singing to praise their existence, and the existence of their opposite gender, you just can’t help but feel wonder. Life is absolutely beautiful.
I truly admire her passion.
I absolutely love her excitement and enthusiasm, as well as learning all sorts of info about this species of fish.
@7:36 They way they stopped music is funny. I like when someone put so much attention to these kind of small details while editing.
As a fellow fish enthusiast (and herpetologist, fellow studier of the misunderstood underdog) I’m so excited that fish are FINALLY appreciated by the public.
Listen, I have intuition and I foresee a time within our lifetime where fish verbal/ electromagnetic communication will become a significant field of study. And we’re going to realize just how intelligent so many of them are. It’s already started. I also think that with AI’s help we will be able to start communicating with Cetaceans in the near future. I truly do.
I’ve been training my yoyo loaches to know when it’s feeding time vs water change time, vs other tank maintenance. My goal is to see if they react differently when I hum a different series of notes to them through the glass. So far they have begun to act accordingly for each “song”. This is far from a scientific experiment, but observations are incredibly important as you know. I need to start documenting this little personal experiment, but this indicates that they are able to identify precursors to change in environment, and anticipate this change. This would suggest the cognitive ability to comprehend a “future” point in time. Also, that they may be able to identify different frequencies and sequences but they could also just be reacting to visual cues and stimulus too…though as you know loaches have poor eyesight lol. This is all just hypothetical at this point, but you might want to start looking into developing studies for these observations, for as many species as you can! (I won’t ask for my name in your research paper lol)
Anyway, sorry nerding out. Thank you so much for your research!!! I quickly fell in love with this fish. I can’t wait for my husband to wake up so I can show him this video.
Sisters in STEM 💪
Play them some dubstep.
@@themarlboromandalorian I’ll use dubstep when I’m feeding them snails! 😂
Loaches, as a whole, are an amazing and fascinating species. In particular, the Clown, Kuhli, Yo-yo loaches. My Clowns have learned to go to the bottom of the tank and lift one pectoral fin and wave it at me. I always wave back at the same time. Loaches are so intelligent.
Please keep a detailed journal of your training progress. There are so many people who would be interested in reading about your progress. 😊
The visual gags in this are top notch
Her passion, his playful spice… cute puppetry… sold! I loved this fish story. Thanks guys! 🎉
I love this fish talk . Such a great vibe .
I agree with you 💯 %.
Her interest is contagious! What a great teacher and what an amazing world we have to live in!
I am by no means a water person and know nothing about fishes but this story is just amazing!!! 🙌🏻. Thank you for explaining it. ❤️
A Midshipman is what a new graduate of the United States Navy Academy in Annapolis MD is called.
not a graduate, just an active NROTC or or Naval Academy student. Once you graduate, you are commissioned as an officer (former Navy officer and midshipmen myself)
@@TXTrojan Thank you for correcting me. I am a US Navy veteran and should have known that.
GLORY BE TO THE CREATOR THAT CREATED ALL THOSE WONDERFUL SPECIES.
Yes, the great Spaghettimonster really made some cool stuff!
Their song really is relaxing.
So relaxing you lay your eggs
I lived in a sailboat for a while. It’s one of my favorite memories. If I could, I would do it again in fact, I would never leave the ocean. At night is my favorite time. Laying in my listening to the sounds. There are many unwritten rules of living in such a community of boats. Sound travels through the water, most wonderfully, or horribly depending upon the sound. And one of the boats was a musician. He would play at night until 10 o’clock. 21:00 or 9 o’clock at night was the time to quiet down, 22:00 or 10 o’clock was the hour of silence. He played the violin, the French horn, I’m not sure, but I think the oboe, sometimes the guitar but very seldom… but this could’ve been a record player. His violin at times could break your heart as a song, always travel through the water and verberate off my hull. The French horn was so romantic it would make your heart sway. But I think was the oboe, that I can’t really describe, but when you close your eyes, you were floating suspended over a hidden paradise lightly with exotic flowers, and the fresh breeze off of clear crystal water. Just say I I look forward to the evenings of listening to the music is a great understatement. When he changed his plane to more subtle and sweet music with the tones of woodwinds, music to put children to sleep. At 10 o’clock silence. Well…. Almost silence. The orchestra and the choir of the sea would begin its turn. The snap shrimp would be busy, snapping and clicking, and the fish would start to sing your songs looking for mate. I so love the sounds this day. I miss them. A recording would not do it. You need a feeling of floating on the water to accompany. The sounds. And then there’s a sound of the riggings as the lines and halyards back-and-forth. The night here on a boat so full of sounds, they can transport your imagination to another plane where your heart can do nothing else but sing.
I like that their defense move is to give predators the raspberry!
Trump fish.😂 🇬🇧
Lol 😂
I can't Pppt
Understand Pppt
Your accent
You can tell that Sarika is a beautiful person inside and out.
1:55 plain fin midshipman meditative hum. 100's humming the same note so loud their hum escapes the ocean into the surrounding air
That sound is totally hypnotic and relaxing. What incredible creatures !
This was my favorite thing I learned today.
Which way did you lean?
I learned dont drink and lean.🤤🍺
@@truesoulghost2777my side hurts😂stop it
This chicks knowledge about fish is amazing. Her delivery is awesome.
As a singer myself I can appreciate the dedication.
I saw this fish on the beach about 20 years ago and never knew what it wa until today! Thank you Sakira!
This is awesome it sounds like monks singing Ohm or a fog horn.
She's incredible! the way she describe these fish is making me more interested in fish! what a scholar!
I wonder if these kind of shenanigans are how our ancestors first came out of the ocean?
I think it was, according to Sumerian texts, genetic engineering.
Not haphazard ocean to land crawling.
Or maybe God, our creator?
It's not happening now, so it never happened then.
@@Find-Your-Bliss-that is not what Sumerian texts say, that’s the stupid thing from ancient aliens
@@soleshajosephwe and every other living being individual or species are in a constant state of evolution broseph
Change is the only constant
That sound reminds me of a lot of monks singing “om” …. Love it
It's like they're saying Om, and yes it's a very meditative sound
Sound was so relaxing. Like a cats purr.
If I was at the beach and heard rocks farting, I would be traumatized, and never return.
And I'm with him, I personally find their singing pretty terrifying too. Very cool tho
🤣❗️
It’s a pretty fish. And so dedicated to its family.
Her enthusiasm for this little fish is great!
When I was doing my masters of marine science at San Francisco state, we had a professor emeritus around who worked on these guys' acoustics. His name is Roger Bland. This has brought back a lot of fond memories of my times in the intertidal zone working with porcelain crabs
I love the intertidal and benthic zones.
Wow. This was so refreshing. If our children's camp and education company here in China could collaborate or work with this team I would be thrilled. It's actually increadibly hard to find wonderful people in the sciences for my daughters and all the children we nurture to look up to and wish to emulate. Sincerity, warmth, relaxed humor, passion, joy in discovery, attention to facts and truth, just fantastic Sarika and Anthony!
I dunno man... They don't even want them learning about Winnie the Pooh.
Sooooo interesting! And so well-produced. The puppets made me laugh so hard.
It sounds like monks chanting!! I love it!!!
How much you appreciate this fish is so endearing.
This is what I live for , the discovery of these fun things about natural
What a beautiful fish and thank you so much for studying and sharing this incredible fish.
She is right!! It actually sounds like OOOHM very relaxing 😊
I can't get over that fish spitting out rocks.
"... 🎶take me to the river🎵..."
Beautifully informative and, oh my goodness, the fish puppets SLAYED me. Just slayed me. Yay for informative AND funny :)
Monty Python would have a field day with these facts.
Such a YT trash fav 😂😂
Nature is fascinating! Interesting how these fish 🐟breed and survive!WOW ‼️‼️‼️🦈🐟‼️‼️‼️
Better "midshipmant" than "fart song fish".
Who knew? You learn something everyday. And it was a lot of fun doing it. Interesting conversation/information. Thanks for posting.
Sounds like the perfect man to me. If I kiss one of these fish, will he turn into my prince? 😂😂😂
When it does it's grunt to ward off predators, it's quite similar to the sound caimans or other reptiles like alligators or crocodiles make when they are younger before they learn to hiss.
This was so much fun! What an amazing fish. ♥ Thank you Anthony, Sarika and the production team
According to neuroscience we should learn something new everyday. So today I learned something I would never have thought about unless You Tube had this video available for us.
Wow that one special fish allright!
I hope she makes a childrens book that explains about these incredible fish,amazing abilities that like to fish. I have to tell my sons that like to sing ,maybe I will write a song about them!
Thank goodness for people like Sarika. Very cool to know about this fish :)
OMG when she showed a dead fish at the beginning AND the captions wrote [fart sound] I laughed so hard 😂😂😂
That's nothing my dad had a mounted fish on the wall that could sing actual songs and dance
😂🎉❤❤
Bahaha my traumatized child self😂😮
😂 Dork!
I still have one of those. It's my millennial badge of honor and shame
Have you seen the video of a guy asking his walled fish to sing that Longshoremen song 😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Om" is the sacred sound of the universe and the essence of all creation in: yoga, Hinduism and Buddhism. What an amazing study, thank you.
This was brilliant. Love how she presented it all.
I never knew I'd have a favourite fish, yet here I am 👁👄👁
Plainfin midshipman. That is astonishing. These fish should get the Fish of the Millennia award. I love the deep singing. Having lived near this bay for so long I'm surprised I never heard it. Thanks for such a great story!
Nice to hear a story about a fish.
That is incredible. I never heard of that singing fish. You learn something new all the time😁☮️
00:30 when she started rumaging through the plastic, I cackled. Made me think she was gonna pull out a specimen... starrring as her lunch XD
This lady's incredible! I want her to teach me more stuff!
Yes!
I love learning about new animals everyday and this just made my day.
I’ve heard that sound!I thought it was my imagination!!
