Let me know what type of content you’d like to see next!
Would you want to see more BTS like this?
Can I have some advise on how to bome a biologist like you
ABSOLUTELY!!
i love your stuff. keep it up 👍
Your content is awesome, man. I'm always learning new stuff and it has some good action. Very underrated channell. How about a collaboration with houstin jones?? The other best youtuber
Yes!!!
PLEASE do more shark content if possible!! Your Shark Week episodes have been my FAVORITE and I rewatch them all the time
Yours was probably the most interesting shark week special this year. Great whites are my favorite animal so of course I love seeing them, but it's nice to see some truly rare and unique species being studied and showcased for a change instead of the same old.
That long nose dogfish was like a mini great value goblin shark it was sick😂😂
Theyre jaw and teeth setup is fascinating
@@contentcop frrr I love all the deep sea sharks, they’re all so unique and weird. Wish that goober made the cut, but glad he showed it off here
I would be happy if Shark Week was seven days of JUST Alien Shark adventures by Forrest and fam!!! Love this BTS and seeing the amazing camaraderie of the gang!
Thanks for this Forrest! Love these BTS episodes. Been a fan since extinct or alive. Great work by you and your crew! And get to work Mitch lol
Alien sharks, and the Josh Gates shark week show, are the only two I will watch.
Josh Gates and Forest are the only guys out there doing this type stuff that I trust period to be real and honest.
Facts. I wish Josh got more respect that he does. But of course he wont because hes a logical person who doesnt grift and play culture wars games and sticks to facts. @IRONHORSE427RACING
I love this! I just got back from NZ/ Australia and I know those indescribable moments being somewhere special with amazing people. Obviously I remember swimming with whale sharks, but some of the best moments were with the people who made it happen, took care of us, made us lunch, and told us stories. It's odd how you can get to know people so well in such a short period of time.
nothing better then a long day then coming home to a J and a new Forrest Video. Great vibes
You've very quickly become one of my favourite channels, thank you!
this was a lot of fun! I'm always glad to see you again on SW!!
So glad I found this channel, it’s so fun!!
I'm very thankful that you're still here with us. Great watch as always
Omg!!!! Forrest!!!! I finally got to watch your shark week show. Why did I cry watching those velvet dog sharks give birth on the ship?! I’m such a sap!!! Haha
Genuinely one of my favourite parts of this video is the tidepool filming. Glad they got a new toy.
17:49 it was the slimy kiss 😂😂
I have so much respect for “your” team being so small and taking on longer harder task. It shows that yall really care and can really be with the animals and nature wherever it takes you guys.
Sick of seeing these famous & rich people trying to “ teach other to help the animals “ yet they can’t put their money or time where there mouth is, meanwhile folks like me do all they can with what little we have especially for our animals.
Ie personally we have many horses, dogs and sugar gliders which all live better than we do 😂
Your pets have an amazing set ups as well !
Truly exciting to hear about your production company, God willing y’all will be able reach more animals and people.
17:00
I live in Nova Scotia and we have lots of dogfish here off the coast.
I always thought they were fascinating!
Houstin jones colab? 😂. Love the channel. Very underated
“Give me Dat Carrot 🥕 or Die”
2024 Cappi De Vara 😂
- Glad you all made it out alive. I'm sure they won't listen to you if there is a next time loll.
6:39 i just wanna say i love Forrest but if a man especially an old man tells you not to do or go somewhere PLEASE heed there warning cause the last thing i want is for you to end up on the MrBallen channel and him explaining "no matter how many times the old fisherman told them its not safe they went anyways and they were never seen alive again." So please Forrest no matter where you go if the wise men of the area tells not to do something theres a good reason why.
I understand the pressure he was under to get this filmed, but you're right. I have my pilot's license, and this reminded me of when I flew 3 friends to the Florida keys for 2 days, and when we were leaving, the weather report was bad, but 2 of them needed to be back to work and needed to get home. I ended up flying them home, at around 1000 ft to stay under the clouds, and it was so stressful! I appreciate the stress involved when you want to be safe but also need to get things done.
So true. Listen to the Oldtimers!
This whole episode kinda had a bad "you gotta do it" vibe. Like its one thing to bring the wrong equipment on purpose (dry suits) but to then dive while sick in them is reckless.
I reckon david Attenborough is tougher, has less sleep (3 to 4 mins a night I've heard ),has less production crew (just 3 oompalumpas ),and has lived with hypothermia for 45 years ,and he doesn't judge his fish based on looks .
I can't wait for the next episode!
I genuinely would love to spend a day with Forrest no cameras or clout chasing he seems like a genuinely awesome person to hangout with and learn so much from
Good video!!!
I wish your adventures to be successful!!!! 👊
Would the orange tag in the Angel shark not hinder on its ability to camouflage?
The scene of you guys in the tub cracked me up! I have brothers and boys will be boys.
That boat captain sounds like a badass. Knew he shouldnt go out but said f--k it and still got them back.
Edit: that's one hell of a resume. He's definitely a badass.
I like force he does a pretty good production and sounds like he has a pretty solid team. It’s nice to see behind the scenes I couldn’t stress how important it is to know what it’s like and what goes on that makes all these important, so serious looking productions, come to life.
😂 good ol force
Love all of your content, you never disappoint.
I sent a message hoping you would investigate the White Buffalo Calf born in Yellowstone early last month.
Forrest is a posotive influence on the world. Respect. I want to be a Park Ranger, but I can find anything within 8 hours of me...damn
Shoutout Mitch😂
Cool to see how it's all done and work what goes into this all .
Hell yeah this was dope!
Shark week as it used to be. You made it
Certified legend.
6:02 *90 degree bow* “Hai”
If you know you know
Love your videos man
Forrest will there be another season of extinct or alive at some point?
Eating dinner with giant rats😂😂😂
This is soo cool I wanna do this as a future career and I’m gonna go to university to study marine biology and oceanography and dock hand and I hope I can graduate and make a career out of something amazing like this!!!
FINALY A CATCH AND COOK FROM THE GOAT
Fish in japan are literally pokemons. Im a diver and started researching species from dive locations i havent been- and japan has some insane looking things haha
Great Video !!
Good stuff !
literally giving the fish a haircut
WOWS 😀 , This So Fantasticss 💙🏝☀️ Be Safe Out There, ☀️😉 Most Exciting 🐋🐠🌿 An GO Galante!! 💙🌼🌿🌼🗽🗽
Great...now I want an Asahi...no joke my favorite beer XD
as far as fresh fish not being good for sushi, that really depends on the type of fish. Different fish have different "types"/textures of flesh. There's also a technique called ikijime wish stops the onset of rigor keeping the fish as fresh as possible. Some fish you definitely want to "age" to enhance the flavor/texture.
Love your videos!
That looks like a incredibly fun & difficult way to make money & adventure!!! Blessings
Did you buy that shirt at Target?
What tv shows has he done? Never seen him on tv or I have and did not know it was him?
Dave The Diver would be proud.
such a based comment
Forrest Forrest Forrest! You didn’t listen to Mitch in Florida and got hit by lightning. You didn’t listen to your Japanese captain, broke 3 underwater cameras and almost sank the boat. Dude, listen to the professionals! We need you alive to keep making cool content.
In Japan it’s probably just called a fishing boat lmao
Great BTS Video 📹
forrest where is the video on the Tiger genetics?. thanks.
If the shark condition is good, it will be released, and if the condition is bad, it will mourn as a specimen or dish. There are quite a lot of shark lovers in Japan, so I think it's good.
And Yaizu fishermen boat, captain name is Mr. Hasegawa.
Hey forest I am very interested in biology and zoology I love your work and it would be an honor to reach out to you
Super cool! thanks for giving us an inside look
Christine needs more screen time in more shows. Maybe her own show. Still would rather have new seasons of Extinct Or Alive or Mysterious Creatures though. My kid loves the Alien Shark shark week specials though, so I'll take what we get.
Forest, do you get the same feeling as me when I go to Japan? the feeling that you time-traveled to the future?!
here in my country, in Europe, we feel we are pretty advanced right! I bet you feel the same about America but landing in Japan you get the feeling we are years behind our economy and systems are crap compared to Japan!
I absolutely would love to do what you do unfortunately I don't have the training or the team to be able to run outside of the midwest
is the Long Nose Dogfish related to the Goblin?
saw this guy in a youtube short and came here hoping for a "How To Grow A Good Beard" tutorial.
Well... according to this "tutorial," you should use salt water, spit and shark slime. 🦈
Don’t die Forrest !! Take care of yourself.
I had a feeling it was in Japan when I saw the mountain in the background
what do you think of these white sharks in nova scoca
You listen to captains…. They know better.
that shark was dead af when you threw it back in lol
Amazing👍
Are you still on the Tasmanian tiger hunt?
More species of sharks are showing up in Puget sound could this be global warming.
Nawice.
Can I ask how you actually associated with the Discovery Channel Shark week channel inc.?
Yeah the rat tail fish are related to sharks and rays and chimera who's with a closely related to cause they're all cartilaginous fish
What is this called?
It’s funny how he was like “I held my breath for about the last 20 feet” even though the number one rule to scuba diving was not hold your breath. He should have done the CESA
big fan
11:59 promoting conservation is saving lives, wouldn't you say?
Woop woop🎉
You should have taken the damn thing home and put it in your living room. I would have!
do the comms system really rely on a connection that is provided by being submerged.. i dont see why you'd need to hold a wrench to your head otherwise.
Do 1 more video with nelk please
Forest very gently telling us he w a s seconds away from dying... come on man don't do that to us
Your show was the only one good one for the whole shark week.
wheres the tasmanian tiger video?
I love your work Forest, but when a captain says the sea is too rough to go out then please listen to the captain next time. It is not worth it to risk lives just to be on schedule.
I never realized how big the capybara’s were
Forest da man
Goblin Sharks? aka super deep ones.
The thing when you build a tank, each gallon of water weighs approx ten lbs, not including alien sharks...heh
I love shark it tastes good.
Sushi is nasty
Why is shark week happening so early when it was always late July. My birthday week
probably the olympics
- I wonder *how* much you had to pay them to *actually* release these sharks !? 🦈. I am glad you did, but I'll bet yah they weren't too happy with doing that because that's how they make money. Too bad they couldn't just catch normal fish. Sharks are important to the ecosystem.
Take a decongestant b4 diving if you're stuffy, your ear drums will thank you
honestly seemed like you guys disrespected the japanese fisherman making them go out when they advised not to, because your western cultural habbits of "it has to be done" because YOU had a time line to meet makes it seem like you do not value their advice and lives just so you can shoot some content. Yes they are respectful and will most likely say yes, doesnt mean your prerogatives has to be forced onto them.
Probably wasn't up to them , I'm assuming the network funded this expedition and had certain stipulations about dates ect
