Thanks for celebrating the natural world with us Michael!
Amazing
Thank you for bringing it so it can be celebrated

I love David Attenborough voice its soothing and it calms you down after a hard day
BBC Earth David Attenborough is amazing I love the BBC
Michael: "Do you have advice for younger science communicators?"
Attenborough: "I dont think i have any advice...Im still learning...its a very presumptuous person who starts handing out advice."

Or is he?

That Kaua'i 'Ō 'Ō bird singing into the void is the saddest and most surreal thing I've heard in a long time.
Manchease Skrelpher i was thinking the same thing. imagine being the last of your kind, that's heartbreaking.
that means no more taxes. Yay!
teared me up
Manchease Skrelpher I bet it was so kawaii
Manchease Skrelpher and it wouldn't be surprising finding out if we had anything to do with the extinction

Jamie Long Nobody thinks your trolling is funny. You're wasting your time.
I don't know why he said that. It's more of a reason for us to lack the understanding rather than having it. If we've never experienced contrast to life then how could we easily distinguish them?
If David Attenborough popped up in my window with a camera while I was getting it on, I'd probably be alright with it
Dude same, especially if he narrates it with his spectacular commentary, I mean come on that's a once in a century love making session
Would make a great pick up line in a bar!
It would only be 30 seconds of film for me 😔
The Kauai 'o'o story at the beginning is really chilling... even the song itself sounds kind of haunting. It sounds like the bird itself was scared, as if it somehow knew it was the last one left. I can't imagine what it must feel like to be the only one left.
thats so incredibly sad. there was a reverb added to it to give it that haunting effect but if you think about it it was just singing out of habit it still lived a very filling life. That o'o bird did have a mate in 1980. I loved and lost and after it was the only one left it had a "new normal" it learned to live amongst the other birds for years. Still doing it's call but I do not think it felt a lone or sorrow. I think it just did its best with what it had
If you look at it from a different aspect, the last sound that species made was a dude trying to get his nuts off.
"The most wonderful thing about tiggers is that I'm the only one. I'm... the only one."
Projecting human emotions and characteristics onto animals is the weirdest thing tbh. Birds have no concept of existence, they don't even know they exist lmao.
@@sn98886You do realize that feeling lonely isn't just a human characteristic right? Birds can feel lonely aswell especially since they are very social animals and I'm sure that bird felt lonely which could have also made it sad/scared
That Kaua'i bird singing in the beginning of the video got me all emotional and shit.
HAhaHA Geo!
My Reviews they could at least have jacked the poor thing off for it.

My Reviews
it's eerie.
My Reviews yes
4:21 and I quote Sir David Attenborough "I am still learning" that is deep. This guy has spent decades in this field and still says he is learning.
Dona Collins pretty sure he doesnt know how to stop
Christopher Johnson wouldnt want him to stop either
everybody is learning always, even when you are sleeping.
He could be lying.
Noone ever does and this guy David Springs, he knows his shit!
So... I think we saw the purpose for human life explained in this video...
Time for me to get started.
We are in an inenviable position.
We have the power to be the dictators or the custodians of this planet.
Do we want to be abusers, or a loving partner?
@@peterclarke7240 truly
Two incredible humans together. I've watched Attenborough from when I was a kid up until now and I began watching Vsauce when the channel had around 1000 subscribers, so I feel very privileged to be experiencing this moment.
Such a thought provoking video Michael! It was a pleasure to bring two legends together!
BBC Earth Unplugged Hi BBC you guys make the best nature programs :3
BBC Earth Unplugged Michael doesn't pay a TV license.
I'm baffled by the 500 people who disliked the video :S
BBC Earth Unplugged how do you know something goes extinct how do you know some are not still out their?
We never do. It's a matter of falsification principles. As long as we cannot prove that there isn't a particular example of a species out there, we can never deem it as extinct, it's all based on observation.
Attenborough fucking legend
Urgh IK!!his voice is so urghhhhhh BEAUTIFUL
I read that in a Scottish accent.
thats *sir* david attenborough to you. dont act too familiar you peasant.
Igor Jovicevic-Jov Yep, one of the greatest of all time...
Or David "Attenbro"
.... I FUCKING HATE AMERICANS!
I genuinely thought this was a new upload but realised it was uploaded 6 years ago
How have I never seen this video until today?
Hey Vsauce, why do we hate our own voices?
cause the way you hear your voice in your head is different from a recording, I don't hate my voice anymore cause I have made a lot of videos with me talking so I'm used to hearing my voice.
I'm guessing you used google translate.
Dead what?
Reborn to be Wilddd referring to "Иван Никишев"
Keep at it. You'll master this strange language one day if you put your mind to it.
I met David Attenborough once, and he is every bit as interesting and as insightful as he appears here, even without cameras. Perhaps even more so. What a legend of broadcasting!
E. R. E. Jones That's good to hear. I have a huge admiration for Sir David. Nice to know it isn't all for the cameras.
E. R. E. Jones I met him once and he touched my swimsuit area :(

Props to Michael for keeping his cool in what was probably one of the most astonishing things to happen in his life at the time. Film promotion or otherwise, getting a chance to have insightful conversation with Attenborough is really a remarkable opportunity.
Hello
That poor little bird, saddest shít I've ever heard
That Kaua'i 'Ō 'Ō singing is really sad, just imagine being the last of your kind calling out for others and hearing nothing, must be scary.
how do you write Kaua'i 'Ō 'Ō?
I copied and pasted a "Ō" and typed it in
This Guy you just did
bound to happen to us someday
Reminds me a bit of humanity's attempts to communicate with aliens
Hey! Vsauce. Michael here. But, how many atoms are in the human body? Well, let's start with the number of calories in a BigMac.
It's 563 calories (at least where I am from)
Rafael Esteva he said atoms not calories. Before you reply make sure you actually read what someone put before you say anything.

The very first Vsauce episode which tries to capture my heart instead of explode my brain

it fascinated me to see the exact moment when david really began to talk about what he love, and began to educate michael on things. i love them both and this interaction is amazing
I like how Micheal is sitting in the chair, legs crossed, and all steady and engaged. And then there's Attenborough, melting in his seat lol.

Guitarmaster7272 sir David Attenborough is a pro at this, that's why
Oliver Ashton He's just very old and doing a promotional interview he probably doesn't give many fucks about.

The opening was dark, tugged a heart string.
yeah well that opening sounds like my life
I hope the human race will wake up and stop destroying stuff. The sad thing is people who think that humans are better will realise the beauty of nature when its all gone :(
All Things Wildlife You're right.. plus idk why do the people save animals from freezing in a lake or being depredated... just think in the depredators that now have no food for their children nor themselves... plus letting it drown or freeze it's not bad for the nature... it is the natural selection doing it's process.
If its not a cute panda most people won't care, its the sad truth
Yeah... 😥😔
This video is a world treasure
as a prehistoric planet enjoyer i very much love David attenborough
When I was five years old I sent a letter to David Attenborough asking if there's lions in other places than Africa and he personally sent me an answer
...there's lions in India too apparently.
Avid The Gir Forest.
Avid Yh I bet
I would pass out
They're pretty neat (I've been to the gir sanctuary) but have extremely low numbers. It's pretty sad.
Yea asiatic lions. They were present in southern Europe and Middle East too until around Roman times
Vsauce could you talk about meditation in a video. It interests me
No

Cant believe im so late to finding this this is so amazing love david i can listen to him speak all day long
Why you so fucking late bro??
Holy f*ck, that beginning. Existential feelings coming early.
daedra40 Yeah
I hope we don’t create too many more endlings like that ,we’ve done more than enough damage already
Sadly, we create endlings everyday.
99% of earths species have gone extinct
It was surprisingly sad, but i imagined a trap type beat over it and it sounded amazing. Wouldn’t it be cool to make a song from the song of an extinct bird
He's 90 and has more hair than Michael.
Long live Attenborough!!!....may he live on and on atleast until if they make another planet earth season .
.
That's genetics for ya, shocking huh?
He's 90!? I was about to say that 75 year old looks terrible.
He looks very well for 90 years old.
Attenborough: Hello Michel it is nice too meet you
Michael: Where are your fingers?
How have I not known about this video till now!
My heart melts for that lonely bird who never finds his mate :(
Playster forever alone birdie
It makes you feel, yeah
Feels bad man
Mikey Reid : MS paint like my ginger mate

Attenborough. I could stay here listening to his voice until the end of the world. Doesn't even matter what he's talking about.
Alan watts has the same affect listen to him
+Luis Fernandez
Yesss I listen to Alan Watts almost every night before I go to sleep. His voice is so soothing.
You could say, till the extinction of humans perhaps
MrGilRoland Even if he's talking about how he was about to murder you?
This someday soon, will be seen as a time capsule for this wonderful man.
“A male calling for a mate who will never come” you didn’t have to call me out like that Michael
Attenborough is the biggest inspiration to anybody on this Earth. No matter who you are he makes it feel as though you are there with him, and I am incredibly greatful to be alive at the same time as him. Forever a legend.
Joe Gregory hmmm🤔.... no

Thing is he hasn't said he was holding a tiny puppy. Now he needs to get a new one after watching this video.

Unless you're running Service Pack 3. I was born after that and I get nightmares. 98 was better than 95, and any would be better than ME and Vista. But I agree that normal XP was good. I have a computer with 8.1, but whenever I get the chance, I go full Ubuntu. I have a computer beside me running 98, and another one with XP, and I was shocked to learn that the 98 didn't have wifi, and the XP did, but the particular computer didn't have a wifi reciever.
same here!
watching David Attenborough lean forward energetically with interest made me happy, like "he's a cool guy"
That ending music and his final messages on videos like this are so amazing that I sometimes start to tear up.
The story about the Kauaʻi ʻōʻō bird was very impactful. That moment is probably one of the best moments that has been on this channel in its history, in my opinion.
No
i cried
Haunting and beautiful, yet mournful and saddening. I have to wonder if it was largely our fault that such a bird vanished from the earth. It's a shame, considering it's such a nice sounding call.
The sad thing is people will only realise the beauty of nature when its all gone, that is why I'm starting my channel, to preserve nature :(

90 years old and is that lucid. One of the reasons is that he still has ambition of learning stuff, he says he´s still learning, he has no arrogance. Learn from him, fellas
David Attenborough is probably my favourite broadcaster of all time. He has been a very big part of some of the best television in my whole lifetime. Modern photography techniques are also absolutely breathtaking and show us things we could only dream of seeing only a few years ago.
Attenborough is one-of-a-kind, and still productive at age 96 (in 2023.) He had a short series on plants on PBS a few months ago.
The bird, that's so sad, idkw, that really got to me
Yeah I felt really bad :( Poor bird
I hope us humans will stop destroying and killing things, the sad thing is that some people will only recognise the beauty of nature when its all gone :(

David Attenborough is one of my favorite people of all time.. I envy him for his apparently fantastic life.. what a beautiful individual, thank you Sir David for the countless hours of entertainment and learning that you've given me- and now starting to give to my son as well! I've searched your name on Netflix dozens of times to be able to watch every program you've been apart of and of course to see if you've got any new ones!
That's definitely not every programme David Attenborough has been a part of. Not even close :P
Rumer Priestly he mean every programme on Netflix
came from the recent video on time, can't believe i didn't know about this until now
same actully

Haven't seen this in years, still pulls my "heart strings"
the start gave me chills, i have a big fear of the unknown and death, and just hearing the sound of that bird while getting told that "all of them are dead... its calling for a mate that will never come... its calling for everyone else but no one is there... all alone"
"We are our planet's autobiographers". that.....that right there is some deep shit.
Too bad it's a misnomer. You can't autobiograph someone else (or something - since we're talking about our planet). The term itself defines a biography about yourself written by yourself. If you take away the "auto" then it will be accurate: We are our planet's biographers.
Ethereal Di But we *are* a part of our planet?
I think you'll find we shall be writing the earth's obituary, and it shall read:
'The hand which writes this is responsible for its necessity, despite the fact it was needless.'
@@freezadehopson4231 id take it even further and say we ARE our planet. i think that's what attenborough means too
Sad to seen Attenborough so frail, absolute legend
didn't he already?
Natalie le .. yeah i think he did already
old age does that to people...but unlike most old people Sir Attenborough has no intention to stop making awesome documentaries...he's my hero
Frail? He is in his 90s and still dared to go on a parachute above mountains, go to the hottest deserts and to the coldest places to document animals. People who are in their 90s are too tired to even move. He is an ABSOLUTE legend!
no he didnt he is still alive
I could listen to David's voice for hours, and Michael's. So having them both just talk about all these things is so awesome! ^^

Vinay K a
David’s such an amazing guy, he’s humble saying he has no advice, but he just gave the greatest advice in saying he has none to give. Documentary filmmakers shouldn’t ask yesterday’s what to do, they must turn to the technology of the future and in the equipment of tomorrow they’ll find the answer of tomorrow’s documentary filmmaking. To get closer than ever before, reach new places, see behaviors undisrupted by observation, show change, innovate in presentation.
But David’s not the dinosaur he humbly claims to be, he rides that wave of the future, he stands at the forefront alongside the next generation, his passion still burning as he approaches 100 years of age. We shan’t see his like again.
The introduction was sad, yet beautiful
Thank you for this experience
Either Google's subtitle auto-generator has gotten much better over the last few years or these guys speak really clearly because these are some of the most accurate auto-generated subtitles I've ever read.
The Kaua'i 'Ō 'Ō bird singing to nobody, to nothing, alone, is the saddest damn thing I've ever heard.
You hear of extinction events in the news and read about them in books but you never really consider that when a species goes extinct that at some point there was just one left, an animal that no matter how successful, no matter how strong and long living or fertile would die alone, wondering where the rest are.
Thank god for David Attenborough.
Most of what I know about the flora and fauna of Earth over the last 30 years has been down to his incredible programs. And well done Michael for this interview.
That intro about the bird is heart breaking.
The fact you converse with this man and ride on a scooter with idubbbz makes me respect you as a content creator.

Not watched Vsauce in four years, but I tell you what, the intro was the best intro to any TH-cam video I've ever seen.
Humans and our fascination with classification is actually extremely interesting and probably is a tool that helped us gain the initial edge over our primate relatives. The need to use our brains more for survival is the greatest struggle our early ancestors went through.
Attenborough is truly a hero and I love hearing him speak
You have David Attenborough... glorious
I hope that they truly appreciate what they've got here. That is a zoological Messiah in an armchair.
