I was the unfortunate victim of a man o' war "jellyfish" and i can tell you that it was the most excruciating pain I've ever felt in my life. I was 10, visiting Florida for the second time and came across a full blown adult headed to shore. i picked it up with my hands not being told what it was. I learned my lesson!
This is an amazing documentary! More information : this video was probably made before the discovery, but we now know why the crowned medusa (peryphilla peryphilla) is red. In the deep sea, no red light is normally supposed to be present because of the darkness, so many deep sea animals' eyes are not able to see red light. Therefore, animals that might feed on the jellyfish probably won't see it and peryphilla peryphilla will pass unseen. Many other animals in the deep sea are red or use red light either to hide or hunt. For more information about the deep sea, watch the second episode of the BBC's "The Blue Planet".
Did ya know some Jellyfish are biological immortal? Can´t believe they didn't mention that in the vid but some could technically have been alive for 66 million years if they could have somehow avoided getting eaten for that long.
What a great documentary. Looked it up for my daughter who is studying jellyfish for her school speech. She is now prepared, confident & in awe of these beautiful creatures. Thank you for sharing 🤙🏽 NZ
@@cruisepaige kids don’t learn any more with the internet and even worse when mums do the research plonk them in front of this and say “take notes” smh
Before quarantine hit, the California Academy of Sciences was going to open a jellyfish exhibit. I was so excited because it was on my birthday and I was going to go with my friends. Sadly, quarantine ruined it but I'm hopeful I will get to see it one day.
20oz? Gotta be American - everywhere else in the world we are into litres but nope americans be like nope we gonna stick with this lol I have no idea what the equivalent is for the uk maybe a 500ml or a two litre - they are the most common over here anyways googled and yes it’s like the small bottles of coke you get - we also say the names like coke Fanta sprite etc not just “soda”
I liked the documentary, but it kinda weirded me out with how Jarms was basically the only one who got to talk about the Jellies. "We're going to Townsville to find out more about the Box Jellyfish. Here's Jarms again instead of any of the scientists that work there." "Now we're at Cairns, where this scientist would like to show us the Box Jellyfish's arsenal. We're not going to let him talk however, probably because he isn't Jarms."
I figured they cut a lot out. And heres me wanting to know every single bit of information they have on every type of jellyfish lol. I'd sit for 3 hours watching that 😂
Not really surprising, the majority of the documentaries on this channel are just compilations of stock footage with this guy narrating over everything.
@@triplehate6759 actually, this documentary, and many others on this channel, are made by a German documentary production company. They've beem making documentaries for at least 2 decades.
Jelly fish are my favorite kind of animal. They always give you the options of puppies, birds, kittens, wolves, foxes, or some other thing, but never these amazing creatures...
When I was 10, I got stung in the face and chest by a blue Portuguese Man O War. It was extremely painful. The doctor put meat tenderizer on the areas so the stings would fallout. Fortunately the pain lasted only a few hours.
I have a phobia of ocean creatures, though I've never swam in the ocean, I've visited it many times from the beach. Creatures like these and sharks are what keep me out of the water....they're amazing to look at on a video.
No you being smart keeping you out of the water. I'm not going to go into their house because they don't be coming into mine. I am just respectful that way.😆
now this is a documentary ... I came to learn more about jelly fish not all these so called documentaries they make these days with a lot of glitz and graphics and personal stuff... and focusing on people who've been stung...lol
It's a documentary from a big german production company. They are normally more down to earth and of higher quality than many others. We have quite a few more from them.
41:30 Creating heat without losing energy? Holy shit that sounds efficient. It's like a heat battery that never dies out. Photosynthetic jellyfish? Wth. If life were a videogame, there would be so much overpowered shit in it.
I'm surprised there was no mention of the Stygiomedusa Gigatia Only 100 have been photographed since 1920 due to the depth where they live. These jellyfish are enormous.
They're red because the spectrum isn't visible to predators at that depth. The lights are an alarm, an attempt to not frighten off the predator, but to attract a bigger predator to eat that one. like a burglar alarm. It's evident how old this doc is, we know so much more now.
Ever hear that dude that played Alfred on gotham narrate..I can’t remember what he did but omg it was epic..they guy that played krennic in rogue one had one too
The most beautiful documentary, unbelievable, the creatures that are lurking at night, an underwater universe, those jellyfish looked liked the constellations,,beautiful documentary ,loved it thank you for the educational documentary,,Zoe
Are they the same as in the North Atlantic? I once dove right into a meter wide North Atlantic jellyfish. That stung. Also it had a scar across the middle of it for the rest of the summer where my arm or something had gone through it. Apparently it was living there, bobbing up and down all summer. Weird animals.
Thank you for this beautiful video, I love the ocean's living creatures it jest takes me to another frame of mind and away from life's terrible realities I'm trying to watch them all.
Palau island has jellyfish that don't sting because they use the sugar made by algae in their hoods during photosynthesis as food so they are completely harmless
What an interesting video. That last little buddy, pacing around in the cage makes me feel so sad 😞. When I see the cute thing yawn with it’s mouth wide-open, I start to cry thinking about how bored it was put into a cage all by itself. How very sad indeed.
I believe they are red because the color red is harder to see by predators. Some predators have "nightvision" wich they use to catch prey deep under the sea:)
You could be right! If you think about it, lots of sea creatures lack a 'full-color' vision and most of them probably don't have red cones in their eyes because their world is so blue.
Amazing... Yes just amazing.. Thank you all for this presentation.. Just loving the impact.. Speaking of impact i would love to meet the people who gave a thumbs down. Google would not let me say more... But watch this marvel and like wow.. Pretty cool you may say.. Woow... Have a great day to everyone.😀😀🐟🐟🐟
''We brought this one from 300m deep to the surface...oh it's exploded inside and died.'' ''These Fish and Shrimp will do anything to avoid light so we are going to shine a torch on them!'' Stop annoying other things haha
Moon jellies are fun to play with, but they are expensive ashell when you try to buy one as pet lol... upside down jellies are gorgeous but they pack a sting
Just one complaint that have happened over and over in this documentary even though it’s not true. A Jellyfish’s sting is VENOMOUS not poisonous. Poison refers to toxins that would harm or kill an animal if it were to ingest a poisonous animal or plant. Poison only happens when something is ingested. Venom on the other hand is a defense mechanism of animals. Venom refers to something that makes skin or blood contact then injects venomous toxins into an animals to harm or kill it. This can be anything from bites to stings. Spiders are venomous whereas mushrooms are poisonous. So a jellyfish is venomous because it touches its prey/ predators with its tentacles and injects venom into the animal using microscopic needles basically. Sorry this really bothered me and it’s upsetting that a documentary that is used to inform people if using an incorrect term. The only way it would be correct is if it showed an animal dying after eating a jellyfish, not getting stung by one.

Marianne Way also being red means if the animal is eaten the preditor that eats said Medusa will not give itself away to larger creaters
Marianne Way Yes couldn’t agree with you more, have watched it and learned so much ! Fascinating documentary indeed
Thanks for the fact!

They may sting like heck but you have to admit, they are beautiful creatures.
When they don't look like piles of snot that is !
One of my favorite...
That's why I love them
they are, but im so scared of them. came here to face my fear

Ugh ikr it's breathtakingly beautiful ;-;

THEY ARE SO SATISFYING WHEN THEY MOVE
I'm more amazed by the lack of 20oz plastic bottles everywhere.
Because they usually migrate North to breed during this time
The only species that deserves extinction are 20oz plastic bottles.
Here we have the deadly 20oz bottle. Native to all waterways, It has no predators and at the top of it's food chain it devastates the native species.

Jellyfishes always fascinated me.
In Farsi we call them the Brides of the sea.
I think it suits them well.
Like a graceful floating brain with tentacles, very cool!
this documentary is beautiful as it is informative and it is really beautiful
By far the most interesting, factual, video. On each occasion when I digest this information, my brain feels smarter. 🌅 🌎 🌙

I love seeing these creatures but not touching them, there are some really huge ones in the Black Sea where I go diving.
Are they the same as in the North Atlantic? I once dove right into a meter wide North Atlantic jellyfish. That stung.

Does size matter?
yeah black sea jellyfish can sting baaaaad
Whenever I visit the Black Sea I pick them up. If they're moon jellies they're fine. I haven't seen other ones other than those.. Don't want to lol.
VIDFIO I live in Australia, which, of course, has the box and irukandji so I'm kinda screwed :/
7:00
Literally every jellyfishing joke from spongebob ran through my head.
From the chant to
FIRMLY GRASP IT!
Im stoned right now and I'm watching this on mute with Tame Impala playing over. It's beautiful.
37:54 that cumputer is a bloody relic xD
26:20 "The neon advertisers of the ocean" Made me laugh
Jellyfish are beautiful
Wow! its very amazing!
I watched this at 3 am one time and Im glad I did
I'm watching at 4am myself
wow there is such an enormous variety of creatures in the sea!
Thank you for this beautiful video, I love the ocean's living creatures it jest takes me to another frame of mind and away from life's terrible realities I'm trying to watch them all.

One of the most fascinating docs ive watched in a while great quality ty!
awesome documentary , great footage, great speaker, good text, great music
Tiny Medusas are adorable.
They can be sort of soothing, calming sometimes
At 3-5:00, take a shot of whiskey every time the narrator says "tiny". I'm fuckkkkked up
Me:"its.... Beautifull!"
(Touch!)
How strange,amazing and fantastic is this world of ours!
''We brought this one from 300m deep to the surface...oh it's exploded inside and died.''
''These Fish and Shrimp will do anything to avoid light so we are going to shine a torch on them!''
Stop annoying other things haha
So true - it’s as bad as doing a documentary on humans and saying they don’t like pain so let’s stab or shoot one haha 😂
Yeah I hate it when scientists bring me up from the depths and I explode turning my insides into my outsides. So annoying man.
Something tells me theres a little yellow sponge watching this too.
In a pineapple under the sea
I like water and I like jellyfish the most
***** why would u assume that? or think that? i've been tricked/fooled/lied/hurt by human but that doesn't make me NOT like other human =)
When that kid picked up the jellyfish, I was ready to call 9/11
Fascinating! I thoroughly enjoyed this documentary.
A beautiful documentary about beautiful creatures. Thanks so much
I have never heard that "most people" are disgusted by jellyfish! People always seem to react with awe and curiosity.
The world need more documentaries instead of drama
So beautiful to the eye
fantastic thank you tak!!
Excellent documentary, especially if watching it in 60 FPS!
Thank you !
great video
I take back my impromptu remark below. This is an excellent video. Sorry
awesome!
Look, but don't touch.
Yayy Norway!! ^^
I love these creatures and to touch them
Ive tried watching this before but I fell asleep, lets try this again 😊
Actually, I've taken marine biology last semester, and the Portuguese Man-O-war is actually a colony of hydroids,
Actually the word jellyfish evokes feelings of sensitivity, curiosity and fascination
I've touched 2 jellyfish in my life! I've touched a moon jellyfish and a upside down jellyfish! I learned about each and every one of them!
Congrats! :D Now go forth, and find more of them to play with! :D
Moon jellies are fun to play with, but they are expensive ashell when you try to buy one as pet lol... upside down jellies are gorgeous but they pack a sting
