Really cool. Before this video, I was unaware that there were aquatic carnivorous plants.
I figured there was something in the ocean that probably ate like algae or some other microorganisms but that was pretty cool for sure.
N now there extinct
Because you never cared lol
@@joecota8685 lol..yea. Almost the same as finding out your grandparents left you a million dollars under your mattress which you sold 10 years ago.
@@entertainmentgaming8738 ?
Is it just me or is the audio mixing on this pretty bad? At times the music is almost louder than the narrator.
That’s what I was thinking
That's the new way that TV is going
Yeah, I always have automatic subtitles on
It's just you
They're mixing for headphones.
I’m just glad that I got a Carnivorous Plant book when I was little, so I can appreciate how fascinating and deadly all these plants are.😊
Yeah, you really dodged a bullet there huh
🙄😅
I think we all do now. Well done you for keeping up the hobby 👏🏼
Deadly? Compared to what?
I can't appreciate anything until they show how fast really it is with a super slow mo camera instead of just taking about how fast it is.
Whoever mixed the audio on this needs to have their ears checked. Can't hear a damned thing over this noise, I don't even want to call it music.
Of all the thumbnails you could choose, you selected some mussels that only show up in the video for less than 5 seconds.
I've never even heard of water wheel plants before. So much nature remains unknown even to naturalists, much less to regular schmoes like me.
They've been known for like, hundreds of years lol
@@nicholaswhorley8343 it must be good to know everything about everything.
There's also something called the corkscrew plant, another aquatic carnivorous plant. lol
They're called "smores", Buzz.
Imagine going to the parts of the ocean we thought had nothing and finally discovering them to have massive complex carnivorous plants…..
Unlikely, since plants need light, and most of the unexplored parts of ocean are perpetually dark.
@@snehadityaghosh8973 a worthy sci fi or fantasy concept tho ngl
@@KaaneDragonShinobi That it is.
Yeah damn, I can just imagine some giant Venus fly traps, or water wheels and shit. Big enough to snatch a person, just beyond the shallows. It would definitely give you reason to be worried when something touches your leg
😖😓😖😰😖. And you can't tell if it's just seaweed or other plants, or if it's one of THESE bad boys before it's TOO LATE 😈😈😈 And it snatches you up and sucks you down it's tube and EATS YOU‼️💯😅😭😅 Lmao, I'm high and thinking about this just makes me laugh 😅😭😅 Even if it would be spooky, I'm glad we don't have human sized water wheels, that I'm aware of at least 😬💯
@@ActionJackson669 Plantera has awoken. Plantera is enraged.
Well shit D:
background music is too loud
I'd prefer seeing the video of how those plants capture is victims instead of drawing and animation.
Wow, hype with such an amazing plant, but don’t let us see its trapping power in action. #disappointing.
The most obvious thing I was expecting was no in the video. All you had to do was give a slow motion footage of those plants and you failed.
soooo is he going to show us the plant actually capturing something? or are we suppose to just imagine it?
I did not even know some water species was even carnivorous...
Even a old dog can learn new tricks...
Hell yea water Lilly’s are carnivores
You’re never to old to learn something new, knowledge is power and there’s always something to be shared!
You learn something new everyday‼️💯 Always and forever, moreso when you seek the knowledge out, but even without doing so, you'll generally still learn something new each day 👍💯
@@thetiredtraveler2540 every person you meet knows something you don’t. Always something to be learned out there
You know, we can listen to music anywhere, any time. How about mixing the narration so that it's actually louder than the music? Would sure enhance the educational value of your video.
Seriously
Never heard of the waterwheel plant before. Very cool. Besides the floating aquatic bladderworts that this video shows, there are also terrestrial bladderworts. They live in water saturated soil and have tiny bladders that trap microorganisms.
Amazing, that you are talking about less known, but just as fascinating carnivorous plants!
It can generte upto 600x gravitational force yet it can contain its shape and structure.. I'm speechless..
Tbf simple physics and brilliant design is the key. Water around it does most of the work
@@TojiFushigoroWasTaken, I agree, the use of hydraulic force is key here.
Gravity is a weak force compared to others
@@jmikronis7376 P
@@axelcastillo7432 It is a meaningless comparison. Tell us the speed at which the water fills the bladder.
I love biology. Yet, in all my 61 yrs, I had never heard of these wonderful plants. Now looking for sure-motion of the captures
Substandard. Not one captured video of an aquatic plant in action.
I do imagine quite a bit that in the far future humans will travel to distant planets and get eaten by plants of these worlds as they take selfies with the plant life.
I had no idea that there were aquatic carnivorous plants! Too bad the music in this video drowned out the talking, otherwise I would have enjoyed the video much more!
would've been epic to see them in action
bladderworts are a pretty common pest in planted aquariums. mostly harmless but almost impossible to get rid of.
I got bladderwort before but I didn't know that they are also carnivorous. Amazing plant indeed.
I've read it as "the fastest Coronavirus plant in the world" 4 times in a row. I can't be the only one...
. ♡
you are not !
You and me both! I came to this video just to see if anyone else read it like that🤣
Same. I feel like an idiot 😂
it is an anagram though
This plant grows fast. Breaks easily, and the breakaway parts will self propagate into a new plant. It's almost impossible to get rid of once it's introduced into a planted aquarium =/
The ending musical credit themes reminded me of the similar ending credits theme coming from “The X- Files”
Talking of the Waterwheel eating and didn't even get to see a Waterwheel eating...saw loads of venus fly traps eating though 🙃
After coming back from Green Planet. Sounds different without old David Attenborough!
I'd never heard of bladderwort's and I still haven't after this video thanks to the audio mixing.
Does this really need to be so sensationalistically produced to make anyone watch this nature doc?
It's like I'm watching that history channel. 😂
So the audio mixer on his video is still in a job. Always essential that music drowns out what the narrator is saying.
Thank you. I frequently complain that bladderworts are largely ignored.
😂
This plant has evolved to the highest degree, it eats those who should eat it. If it goes on like this, plants can overtake the world of fauna in their development.
MORRIS.....FEED ME🌾🍴
That’s….a REALLY REALLY huge leap in logic.
You didn’t get what endangered mean.
Thats not how evolution works
@@mki441 if it works
I love this videos❤💪🏻
*Always* : awesome plants. So cool. Amazing stuff.
*Never* : poor little organism that won’t make it back home to its family, friends, and pets. Gregor just wanted to go for a swim on his day off. It was just another normal day for Gregor, but who knew it’d be his last. Eaten by a plant…could life be any more cruel. Gregor was a vegetarian for crying out loud. Cruel cruel irony.
Always: Cute deer/koala/panda grazing.
Never: poor tree/stalk/bush that won't make it back home to its family, friends, and pets. Bob just wanted just wanted to bask in the sun and make sugar to feed its kids. It was just another normal day for Bob, but who knew it’d be his last. Eaten by a cute animal…could life be any more cruel. Bob was a phototerian for crying out loud. Cruel cruel irony.
Gregor was eaten BECAUSE he was a vegetarian.
Who says plants can’t adhere to one of the oldest rules of nature, eat or be eaten?
>so powerful, it occurs with 600 times the force of gravity
This sounds impressive, but doesn't mean anything, until you convert it to pressure difference.
A great loss.if we lose them
Absolutely amazing
I'd no idea such thing exists
A fascinating subject, but the experience is ruined because the BG music is louder than the narrator.
0:26 the subtitle reads bladderworts and at 0:33 blood awards. the description reads bladderwort
lol, I read the title too fast. I thought this was the fastest coronavirus plant.
Oh boy, the list of reasons for avoiding the ocean just keeps on growing!
important to not show something in action when you’re talking about it
No live footage. Terribly loud background music. Couldn’t give a better comparison than 600x the force of gravity? And seriously, who pronounces ‘aquatic’ like that?
Video had potential.
God had been very busy in that 6 days designing these plants. 🤣 And the fact that none of them would devour us whole shows his special love for man. 😇
*Just Like My Stomach, My Triggers Activate Every Hour* 😄
*ALL THE LOVE FROM INDIA BUDDY* 🇮🇳
Is the plant itself moving fast or is the pressure of water rushing into a vacuum responsible for the speed.
Said water rushing.
And to think I was afraid of sharks and piranhas!
we just discovered this plant and now it's "endangered"?! come on, that defies logic
I have studied bladderworts but I didn't know they are endangered. They are found in plenty where I live, in ponds and lakes.
It was the other plant described, a waterwheel, that is endangered
@@tommasoprocida4348 oh didn't notice. Thank you.
I always look forward to the orchestra music at the end of BBC Earth video clips .
Evolution is simply fascinating. Makes me wonder what kinds/types of carnivorous plants might have existed over the many millions of years predating humans.
You mean pre-dating humans, right?
MiLLioNs oF yEarS HAHAHAHAHA
@@coloradostrong8285 Not sure why you’re mocking this…🤨
@@KBWeeds imagine thinking humans existed for more than 2000 years. You're just asking to go to hell
@@KBWeeds He's suggesting evolution didn't happen.
Honestly, in the light of irreducible complexity, it's a bad theory. Anybody still believing in it should probably reassess it.
It's very unique plant..
Awesome!
No
@@ravishoul1432 ?
Way to show venus fly traps 7000 times, and not even show a proper video of either water traps in operation. Just still for the waterwheel. Embarassing.
I have this plant in a container by my window for several years already, with small pretty tiny yellow flowers. You can see small creature got sucked and eaten. Propagate by seeds, cuttings or division.
Even if all humans become extincted, the Earth will be fine. There have been MANY extinction events that have wiped out the majority of life on this planet and yet life keeps bouncing back.
I wouldn't have clicked on this video if the thumbnail was a picture of Bladder wort
Nice work on the thumbnail
What! I did not know this ! I have these plants as aquarium plants! Great video
My brain : yup these are the ones u should watch before you sleep
Awesome videos and so interesting. Thank you
I can’t be the only one who read “the fastest coronavirus plant on earth”
I said put a mask on it.
Why is the background music so loud?
waterwhell "can i copy your home work"
venus fly trap"yeah, you can but just change a little bit so we dont get caught"
waterwhell...."under water fly trap"
Did he say "Massive tiny bladder like traps"? I played it 5 times and I think that's what he really said: "Massive tiny".
..a mass of tiny bladder like traps...
🙄
Has to be the strangest thing in nature!! Carnivorous plants amazing!!
Amazing info, and an amazing skills
How does it pump the water out to create that deficit?
its a plant, it absorb water along with the prey
600x force of gravity has to be one of the dumbest ways to measure speed 😂😂😂 Are they also 1500x faster than an ant's fart?
he didnt say its fast.
he sad its powerful.
and compared it that its 600x stronger than gravity.
You could have picked a better thumbnail..
I read the title too fast and read it as coronavirus plants
Why is the thumbnail a bunch of mussels? Talk about clickbait.
I read coronavirus instead of carnivorous. My brain is cooked
Exerting 600 times the force of gravity is pretty easy. We spend all day overcoming gravity, ya know
Really? Try spending all day walking around weighing 600 times what you weigh now.
fascinating species.
but the bgm being louder than the narration is very annoying and i couldn't hear what was being said at some parts.
1:32 Delta-P is at it again
....The thumbnail made me think this was a new plant or something...bleh. lol
My head so f up I thought it's the fastest corona virus plant in the world.
Thanks BBC Earth
I had no idea Coronavirus was in plants too 😂🤦♂️
The necklace. Of course you involve the cops! If it was stolen and not just lost, that's how you make sure it pawn shops and jewelers are notified.
Let's research and manufacture technologies to satisfy our curiosity and discover new worlds, by destroying the ours.
1:02 "massive tiny bladder"🤣
OK, I got to the part where the plants had "massive tiny bladder-like traps" and had to turn it off.
If I was a sea creature and an aquatic carnivorous plant tried eating me, then I’d punch it in the chops and swim off.
Narrator used massive and tiny to describe the same thing
The fastest Coronavirus plant in the world, yeah I read that at first glance 😂
You’ve heard about carnivorous plants on land and in the waterways but what about the AIR
T H E C L O U D S
I did an experiment with Venus Fly traps long ago and they did not do well on flys they would brown out a bit and actually dumped a few flys rather than eat the But when I fed the plants Raw Steak they thrived grew larger and a beautiful green color as well!
I read ‘carnivorous’ as ‘coronavirus’ plant 😆
1:02 massive AND tiny?? Lol I like the wording here.
good concept, but imo pretty terrible execution especially from the BBC. audio balance is a mess and you can only half hear the narrator over the music, distracting graphics (dunno why but I'm getting that overproduced BBC Sherlock vibe from it), and to top it off it doesn't even show the dang plant doing the one thing the video is about!
Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water....
Very nice concept
Background noise on this video is horrendous. Almost blowing my ear drums out
I read the title as “The Fastest Coronavirus Plant”😂I was like. Excuse me, WHAT plant??
Title looks like "fastest coronavirus plant..."
Without David Attenborough's narration this video feels incomplete
Well sadly we are just going to have to get used to the concept of Nature Documentaries without Sir David narrating them. I don't know how old you are, but I have been watching him since the late 1970s, definitely since the 1980s.
Bladderwort sounds like a name for a rock band!
Oho, looking at the dust , I thought this carnivore plant ate, a hyena or a deer, Oho what a joke😂
It's a plant.. lol?
