I thought that maybe they might be related to barnacles or some form of squid with an exoskeleton. Wasn't there a recent discovery of deep sea squid that had rigid parts in its arms? Squid have specific arms for mating. Maybe they're related to that whole Tully monster. Unfortunately when it comes to fossils there's not a whole lot that we can tell. Maybe they're related to some form of trilobite I suppose we'll never truly know what its ancestors are. Maybe it's just another one of those strange creatures like the water bear and the sea pig.

@sheogoraththedaedricprince9675 squid are cephalopod which are mulloscs. There is no doubt about the phylogeny of molluscs. The sea spider is an arthropod. Only srthropods have an exoskeleton. The tully monster nobody is sure yet. YET

Babies exhibit no natural aversion to predators, threats or other animals, but they will recoil from spiders. Why is fear of spiders ingrained into our instincts? What did they do in our evolutionary history?
When I went to kawaii, I experienced one of the most terrifying moments of my life. It wasn't the underwater cave diving, it was the black rock beach. I was 18, and in the middle of hopping rock to rock, thousands. And I mean THOUSANDS, of dinner plate sized solid black tarantulas started running towards me. Luckily they turned out to be crabs that turned black from living in the rocks. Still a moment I'll never forget. I don't like spiders.
Yes I think I am convinced that this little critter comes from some part of the Cambrian explosion’s weirdness that survived and kept evolving on its own separate and unique path. Evolution: how many legs do you need? Sea spider: yes. All the legs.
"so you want your organs in your body right?" "nah. That's too mainstream. Give me breathing, digestion and blood pumping in my legs and make my abdomen the size of a pinhead"
"She came to me with a case, and I tell ya, a mean one. Her workplace was one that, shall I say, encourages foul play. Now this dame had a rival trying to get a leg up on her. "A leg up? Which one?" She wasn't amused.
"Or as large as 75 centimeters" which is unsettling. But as long as they stay down there, sure. Whatever doesn't float their sunken boat on the bottom of the sea.
@@kellydalstok8900 No, they mean what they said, their boat is already sunken, they are literally at the bottom of the sea, they're saying that they hope that boat doesn't float back up.
Narrator: "It doesnt exactly narrow down how these guys came onto the scene in the first place." Me, after hearing legs 8 dozen times in 5 minutes: Did they walk in?
Their reproductive organs being on their legs just reminds me of Kirk's fight scene on Rura Penthe in _Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country._ ""I was lucky that thing had knees" "That was not his knee."
I'd be interested in a video that talks about animals (or plants) that originally were li9sted in one group or family or phylum but later research moved them to a very different spot.
There’s an old saying that teenage boys can eat so much because they have hollow legs. Obvious proof that there is a genetic tie between teen boys and sea spiders
This video exemplifies why I love your narrative: passionate, humorous, and just a bit sarcastic. Love this channel as it keeps me interested, and devoted.
usually i'm not a big fan of spiders, but for some reason i can't help but think these guys are pretty cute. the lil guy on the pin is especially adorable
Side note: I have to say I am super delighted that sea scorpions are extinct. Could you imagine going to the beach today and having to worry about scorpions in the water?
Watching the swimming one move is almost hypnotic, a slow, deliberate dance, like tai chi in three dimensions with far more legs. All in all, lovely little fellows and a delightful addition to the tree of life ^_^
I remember marvelling at a Corixidae Water Boatman bug many years ago in the bush of Cape York, North Queensland, Australia. I remember thinking that this little critter had perfected all three environments....land, air and water. It landed on the edge of a water filled plastic container, walked around the edge and then into the water, where a couple of legs propelled it around like a pair of oars. It then took to the air again straight from the water. Incredible evolutionary perfection. What an amazing little creature.

i have to say, it's so amazing seeing hank with a full head of hair coming in like this, somehow youtube hasn't recommended me any of his other adjacent channels so this is my first time seeing him in a very long time, but knowing what he's gone through it's so cool to see this new look as a monument to the journey, best of luck dude
Slowly but surely, we're FINALLY bringing more attention to how cool pycnogonids are on a mainstream scale. These gut-legged fellas would be such cool Pokemon!
Wait that's their head and their abdomen is tiny? I've been looking at sea spiders backwards my whole life! Also thank you. I've always wondered what exactly sea spiders were. An arachnid? A crustacean? Something else? Now I know but also I'm even more confused by them.
05:05 - I beg your pardon, male spiders store their sperm in the pedipalps. Some female spiders actually consider the size of the pedipalps to be a determining factor for a choice mate. Female spiders keep all their equipment in the abdomen though.
Wow. Great video! Lots of new knowledge! Densely packed, well presented. Amazing job. Knew you only from shorts - you are an outstanding science communicator.

Giant Tortoise: Island rule: Basically, large animals go small and small animals go big Sea Spider: Basically, the closer you are to the cold, the bigger animals are DÈJA VU
LOVE that the juveniles are just heads. Zero leg -> all legs is a hell of a puberty to get stuck with Also I can’t believe not a single hollow leg/you eat a lot joke was made
well theres the surface to volume ratio that is just more beneficial th lager the animal is. which is why small animals have to eat a lot more than larger animals - because they lose more body heat
The point of body heat only holds true as long as the animal in question is endothermic. For exothermic animals such as sea spiders, it's not a factor (Not to mention the fact that if somebody was tasked to design an animal with the single worst heat retention capability, they would produce something like the sea spider).
I've once had a dream where every single type of insects broke into my house and there also appeared this specific species of spider wandering around on the floor, that was 4 years ago.
I had a nightmare when I was a kid, which was about sea spiders. It was this weird hyper realistic computer generated documentary style dream about the "deadly sea spiders". This was probably 20 years ago and I took comfort in the fact that the idea of sea spiders was a ridiculous idea. While this video is fascinating, I still don't like the sea spiders.
Also, larger animals have less exposed surface area in relation to their body and according retention of heat energy and metabolism. It is simple math. Volume is measured in cubic (³) while area is measured in square (²). The latter consequently increases much slower than the former, which is why animals tend to get bigger in colder areas and smaller in warmer areas.
How hard are these to raise in captivity? If sea spiders are raised in captivity, their food can be restricted to specific sources. That way, the DNA from their food can be removed from the DNA data.
