    If nature makes a grown man giggle like a little girl, maybe it's something worth preserving.

      Sander Kamp Until you realise that electricity is largely run off of fossil fuel meaning that if you stopped mining, there wouldn't be enough electricity for you to watch this video.

    • @GameFuMaster

      ***** Not really, people arguing for preserving nature and stopping mining and what not don't realise what they'll actually lose if they were to get their way.

      ***** Well at this point in time it's more about comfortability than survival lol.

      GameFuMaster somedays windturbines in denmark create more than the energy demands, renewable clean energy is certainly achieveable just needs more backing and time

    Just listening to his excitement in his voice and seeing such a rare sight of whales eating ALSO put a smile on my face... That was really an enjoyable clip!

    @sfhipchick1 7 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    What an experience of a lifetime! I also really appreciate that he immediately moved away--I'm sure it was partially because he was nervous to be that close, but also, to be respectful of their space and the laws that go with that. Nice. So many are not so respectful. WTG!

  • @dastrnad
    @dastrnad 9 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Thanks so much for sharing, Brad! The ethereal call of the whales followed by the absolutely amazing site and the sheer joy in your voice was such a beautiful combination.

  • @CeciliaSherrard
    @CeciliaSherrard 8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    What a dream. A rare, bubble net catch. Only a small percentage are capable of coordinating this and so close to the boat. Amazing!

    • @trainscout
      @trainscout 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Exactly! The whales blow bubbles in a wide circle and as the bubbles rise snd the bubbles expand, the fish are forced close together. Then it is feeding time near the surface-for the whales and quickly moving gulls

    I love the excitement in the man's voice,so lucky to witness all those beautiful whales and seagulls together,I got goosebumps when they all came to the surface of the water one even waved at the end of the video, bucket list for me they were so lucky I wish I was on that boat ❤️🐳

    At 0:51 I swear I can hear the noises the whales make before they even break the surface.

    • @damienjohn
      @damienjohn 9 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Morisato You can, just like the guy who filmed the video; "I hear'em"

    • @bradrich1
      @bradrich1  8 ปีที่แล้ว +34

      They are coordinating their assent to eat the Herring. There is one "Boss" whale that gives the "go" signal. That's what we heard, in addition to the rush of water as they surfaced.

    I don't always comment on TH-cam videos. But when I do, it's because it may be the greatest video I've ever watched.
    The first time I watched it, it was on my phone's tiny screen, and it was STILL thrilling.
    So I can't even BEGIN to imagine what it felt like to experience that moment first-hand. Unforgettable!
    Also, mentioning shit seems to be a common reaction to awesome/scary wildlife moments.

    Take care! Don't get eaten!

    I clicked the video to see the whales. They are such an impressive sight, I adore those amazing creatures. But then I rewatched it 5 times because of this highly contagious, pure excitement and joy in your voice. I can't wait for my kids to come home from school, I'm sure that they'll love it, too.
    All the best to you and your family, may your life be filled with sparkling moments and joy.

    WOW! No wonder he was reduced to maniacal laughter. This puts the awe back into awesome. It's as if the whales under water said to ine another, "Okay, the gulls know what to look for. Now, we count to three and then we surface all at the same time and really blow these people away. Ready? 1 - 2 . . .
