The deep sea is a world of challenges. Pressure increases rapidly. In the mesopelagic zone, the light of the sun becomes a faint glow, and at 1,000 metres down, the midnight zone is bathed in darkness. And yet, even in this bitter uninviting world of cold shadows, a myriad of peculiar creatures have made their homes, dramatically adapting their anatomy, behaviours and physiologies in order to cope with the challenge of living here. In this film, we’ll take a look at the unique ways in which these otherworldly creatures have adapted to thrive as masters of the deep dark sea.

You are a good narrator.
@Tamas Mihaly Thank you :)
@@NaturalWorldFacts
You're welcome and thank you for sharing ❤️ sharing is caring 😁
Your voice reminds me of Rem from Deathnote. Calm, serous, eerie. Very rare combination

Let’s take a moment to pay our respects to the creatures that had a bright light shined into their sensitive eyes
Permanent damage for sure
I was thinking this too 😂 hopefully no harm done
I love this comment so much. Human compassion.🥺
I’m sure they see alien craft constantly they prolly know more than we do
Hopefully they are blind and no harm was done
Ive been having the worst rapid anxiety attacks at night when the room is dark and the night is silent. My thoughts drown me into madness. But somehow - immersing myself with deep sea content calms me down. It's eerie yet calming. It helps me compartmentalize my messy thoughts for some reason.
I can relate to that. There’s something so utterly mesmerising and calming about the deep sea, and I too find it comforting. I really hope my videos can help you feel comfortable late at night, anxiety attacks can be awful. All the best, -Leo
@@NaturalWorldFacts I think I speak for most of us when I say, thank you so much for the beautiful and healing content 💜
I really appreciate that Sofia! That really makes it all feel worthwhile :)
@@NaturalWorldFacts Your voice is so soothing and enthralling - the cadence and tone just draw me in so deeply.
Interesting. Perhaps you'll develop a bioluminescence of your own... Be pretty cool
I do most of my scuba diving in Northern/Western Europe where the twilight zone basically starts at 6 meters and where you’re surrounded by darkness at 40 meters, and it’s amazing to see how similar the species you encounter here look to genuine deep sea inhabitants. I could watch this channel all day!
Wow that sounds incredible! What species have you seen while diving that you recognise from my videos?
@@NaturalWorldFacts For example raniceps ranirus, liparis liparis, taurulus bubaris (I use the Latin names becaus I don't know the English ones); squid/cuttlefish and crustaceans like macropodia rostrata.
@@philippebeinaerts thanks for sharing, that sounds interesting
I searched every single name you put there of the animals and man, i love nature so much. Thank you for mentioning them.
@@NaturalWorldFacts The Chimera (ratfish) seen at 7:22 looks virtually identical in body plan to the spotted ratfish found in shallow waters in the Pacific Northwest. I've found them in knee deep water while wading out for a dive.
Unfortunately we will have to say our final goodbye to Sir David Attenborough and many more natural historians broadcaster's over time. I'm glad there are people such as yourself to carry the torch of fascination and conservation.
So, rise.
17:30 the fact that deep sea creatures can surface to higher parts of the ocean at night is at once terrifying and exciting. the music composition for this video is beautifully done too
At 14:50 they play Joji. lol Will He
the other fish thinking: oh no, it's night time, here come the weirdos...
The deep see videos are my favorites! The surprisingly vast amount of life that is able to survive and even thrive down there is amazing.
I agree! The deep sea has become an obsession of mine (as you can probably tell) for that very reason 😁 really hope you enjoyed the film.
@@NaturalWorldFacts i love the mysteriousness of not knowing what really is down there :) i find it much more interesting than space
And the longer we're unable to get to it, it's safe..... plastic trash in the Marianna Trench, watching the robots pick it up, my heart sank.
We are killing this eco system. The ones we can't get to.... are the safest from us mass farming them or something. I'm surprised there's isn't a load of toxic waste dumped in there...
I've seen you comment in so many videos I watch, guess we've similar (aka good) taste
Another great video. Using that 'Will He' cover was good- piano and base fit really well with the undersea clips.
It caught me off guard lol
I knew I sense Joji in there lol
Lol damn, I thought I was the only one. Good ear
thank god I thought I was getting crazy
was expecting for franku ask for some pizzs b0ss on the submersible, but yeah, perfect fit
14:24 that piano joji song was immaculate and I was completely moved by it 😌
Never knew I needed a joji piano cover in the background of a deep sea documentary, but if fit very well. Surprised I recognized it lol, I guess it's pretty distinct. Absolutely stunning as always.
I couldn’t help it, it just fit so well! Really glad you enjoyed this one :)
I thought i was the only one who noticed!
I was coming here to see if that was a joji cover that i heard playing. Really nice cover
I thought I was tripping
honestly these videos are so beautifully put together. so enjoyable to watch, helps me to fall asleep when my mind is too loud
Aw thanks Dani!!! You’ve made my day ☺️
I was listening to this with headphones and noticed a very subtle reverb on the voiceover. I don’t know if you’ve always done this or if it’s new to this video, but it definitely adds to the relaxing nature of your videos.
Thank you! I’ve done this for every deep sea vid but am always playing around with the audio mixing to try and get it right. Thrilled you enjoyed it!! ☺️
It’s so subtle but calming when my mind is racing. I know nothing about marine biology but for some reason these videos are so fascinating
You beat me to it. I was about to say the same thing.
Thanks Natural World Facts , your videos are brilliantly edited and the effort put into each subtle detail immerses the viewer fantastically.
@@NaturalWorldFacts אטוט
The more I learn about this beautiful planet, the more I am just completely blown away by how incredible, how amazing it is. The Ocean life that emit bioluminescence are absolutely breathtaking! Thank you so much for educating and sharing with us another reason why earth is a gem 💎
You've truly outdone yourself with this one mate. A magnificent masterpiece from start to finish Leo. I always learn something new from your films. And I did, as always, in this one. But more so then info Leo, a true love for the ocean and the deep sea. Cheers brov.
I really appreciate that, thanks for making it all worthwhile :)
This had no business being as beautiful as it was. Loved this video.
This cleanliness of the production and presentation, and the information contained within cannot be understated. This is exactly the material I search hours for. Thank you for the video.
Something about the little orange fellow, motoring along at 18:11 made me smile. Some of these creatures are quite cute! Thanks for another wonderful video. I think yours are the only videos I've watched that don't play scary music and stupid action sound effects (even BBC does this) when showing deep sea creatures. I like how you take what others show as being nightmare fuel, and make us feel for these animals and their resilience with your gentle narration and music.
You've put a great deal of work into this, and it really shows. I find myself wondering about pelagic creatures because of your channel, and have shared this curiosity with others; I fell in love with the vampire squid and its adaptations, namely the eyes. Anywho, thank you for sharing your passion with others. It truly is a privilege to be able to watch these quality videos/films 😌
They may be called Vampire squid from Hell, but really they're big softies with a diet of marine snow, that hide inside their tentacles. Amazing creature.
“It has created a world of the weird and wonderful. Defined by glowing life forms and gelatinous beings that would seem out of place in any other environment, but here, they are masters of the strange.. changing in extreme ways in response to an extreme environment.”
I really appreciate the writing you do for these, it sounds nice to me because the words you use flow together so nicely, almost like water. Kudos to you.
Writing has long been a passion of mine, alongside wildlife, so it’s always a lot of fun combining the two to write these videos. I’m glad you noticed, and overjoyed that you liked it. 😁
This makes me believe that there is something hiding down in the depths... And like everything is so huge down there... And it's amazing how life can adapt to it's surroundings... This amazes me.. 😳😍
Your writing is beautiful and the entire piece is SO well done! You have quite the career ahead of you.
Yes Leo is an amazing young talent 👏 the next David Attenborough for ocean studies 💙
I have a huge fear of the ocean but I love to learn about it and the creatures it contains.
I know, good ocean documentaries can be like horror movies at time for me
Hands-down my favorite channel. It's just so well done, the editing, narration, and music are all superb! Much love 💛
Much appreciated 💛💛💛
I stumbled across this channel last night and I've been casting it to my tv for hours now. You have put some amazing effort into this, beautiful and informative videos. Loaded with information but not at all dry and difficult to digest.
I've always loved the ocean and when I was very young I thought I might want to be a marine biologist. Well, life trundles on and I'm completely unable to apply myself to sciences and structured learning and am thoroughly stuck in the art and literature side of the brain. However the passion for the depths below still burns. These videos are fantastic, I have no doubt you'll be a recognized name in the field soon enough.
To following passions and doing what you love!
Cheers!!
Just discovered your channel and I love it. You seem to have a rare ability when it comes to communicating the inherent beauty of life in its different forms. Learning about the universe we live in should ideally, in my opinion, be a deeply passionate and emotional process. The few videos of yours I've seen so far make it very easy for me to get invested in such a way. I'll definitely spend more time with your videos.
With all this stress I've had with work and school recenently this channel has become essentail to me. Whenever I watch one of your videos I can forget about my problems and just appreciate the beauty of the ocean.
That’s really lovely, I’m so glad my videos can help take your mind off the stress :)
Another fantastic video, beautifully done! I especially love these longer videos about the wondrous inhabitants of the deep sea...thank you!
Out of all the places I expected to hear a Joji song, a deep sea documentary was not one of them. BUT I LOVE IT! Great vid great vibes.
These videos mean a lot more to me than just a like, so thank you my man.
Aw that really means a lot, thank you!
I love how relaxing these videos are while also being clear and informative. Your voice is fantastic, and the clips chosen and the editing are just... * chef's kiss *
One thing I'm curious about is why the light used by photographers and scientists doesn't seem to bother these creatures if many of them are ultrasensitive to light. I'd presume it'd hurt their eyes or even cause damage, like if we stare directly at the sun, but obviously we wouldn't have this kind of footage if that were the case because they'd swim off or avoid the spotlights altogether. Is it the type of light used or something?
As somebody who grew up fascinated with the ocean, this channel is a Godsend😎
Your videos are so calming and you can hear the pasion coming through by the way you talk. And as someone who absolutely adores everything and is fascinated by the deep sea, these videos give me so much joy and inspiration. Thank you.😊
You have the most calming voice. I watch a lot of sea documentaries but never before have I been so taken aback by how nice the narrator sounds!
Insomnia, dxm, and rabbit holes brought me here. Thank you for this, sir/ma'am/person. This channel is so cool! And your editing style is greatly appreciated: I mean learning things is fun too, and, AND, I just wanted to express my appreciation for how refined your product is. Thank you. People like you tilt the cosmic scales towards good.
I so love this deep sea series!
Also a big thumbs up for the Narrator of this series ( somehow your voice fits perfectly on the dark and silent depths of our amazing seas.
Kind regards,
Sybren
Man, I have to say, I watched your videos, one on the slow worm, and the other one making an enclosed ecosystem-both were excellent. I couldn’t help but notice your age, and I’m most impressed. You have a real presence and gravitas that lends itself so perfectly to your videos. Transcendent, my friend. Keep going!
I have a deadly fear of the ocean, mostly the surface/shallow oceans. But hearing your documentaries and your voice describing the way these creatures live fascinate me and also put me to sleep (in a good way). Keep doing what you do!
I recently found out I'll be a first time Father to a son in April, and I cant wait to be able to show him these beautifully narrated, informative videos.
Keep up the always wonderful work!
Congratulations! That’s really lovely news, I hope he grows up into a true deep-sea nerd 😂
Thank you so much for this comment, you’ve made my day! Wishing you all the best for everything!
@@NaturalWorldFacts I hope so too, your videos will help make that easier!
You've definitely made my day as well! Best wishes and take care, friend!
Really exceptional quality, like all your videos. I appreciate it. I'd love for you to go more in depth, getting into more details about physiology, etc
I'm amazed by the quality of these videos, even thought I'm more of a mechanical engineering guy I find that these videos just seem to make me forget about what I'm working on at the moment and devote my entire attetntion to them. It's great to see that there's still David-Attenborough-quality stuff being made.
i've been watching so many of your videos, they're incredibly interesting and soothing. thank you so much for putting out such wonderful content, it must take you a lot of time and effort
Your videos give me hope by reintroducing to the wonder and curiosity I used to feel everyday during my childhood. Thank you.
The deep sea is a major interest for me. I marvel how much life there actually is in the deep sea. For me it's a fascinating world.
I love these despite having thallsophobia. The narration is so smooth and perfect and its scientific but not too clinical per se. Its refreshing and informative. I love it
The music and the commentary with the imagery; I love everything about this.
This is hands down rhe best channel on TH-cam. And it was my favorite episode. The clear sighting of Angler fish and Fangtooth was amazing.
Thank you so much for sharing with us. Please keep up the great work
Thanks for the really lovely comment! I’m thrilled you enjoyed the video. Making these is a ton of fun!
@@NaturalWorldFacts I am your big Fan from Australia. Been following from the beginning.
Wish you all the success. Your narration is amazing
Thank you so much!! None of this would be possible without people like you 💛
Right now i'm reading a book "Der Schwarm" von Frank Schätzing.That's related to a similar object - the balance in the deep sea. Your videos help me to dive in that atmosphere. Спасибо за Ваш труд!
i’ve been watching ocean docs since i was a kid and i swear i’ve learned more from this channel than animal planet ever taught me. well done man.
You have such a wonderful voice! As soothing and calming as Attenborough. I don't think you'll ever want for work!
a dose of knowledge of the deep sea which not many people know is always a welcome. keep up this amazing professional quality content, love your videos
Thank you! Comments like this make it all worth it
I love these long calm vids. perfect for watching before going to sleep.
and they are really interisting too.
Aw I’m so glad! Really hope you enjoyed
I have just discovered your channel, and I can't stop binge watching all your videos! Great quality, thank you!
Love it when the TH-cam recommended algorithm works. Great channel, dude would make a good Scary Stories narrator
I can't put into words how much I love this channel. Your videos make me so happy, I'm not even joking! I wish I could express how fascinated I get every single time I watch your videos, I've learnt a lot from them and I'm slowly becoming a lover of the ocean and its creatures.
I'm sorry if my english is not correct, it isn't my first language and it's kind of difficult to find the right words... Anyway, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us ❤️
Your english is perfect and your comment has made me smile! Thank you for the really lovely words and all the support, I’m so happy to hear you enjoy my videos. 💛
Could you caption what sorts of fish and or species is on screen at the moments if possible? ❤ the videos, so calming 😌
I’m so happy that you used a joji song. This Chanel is definitely my favorite.
Only discovered you recently and oh boy am I glad I did amazing content and narration man much love from Australia
Thank you! So glad you found me
Love your content! I am so proud to say I discovered your channel before you hit 100K;
Keep up the good work!
Thank you for sticking with me for so long!! I couldn’t have got here without you :)
This is what i asked last tuesday and you made it to post a video this tuesday as you replied in my comment. Thanks and appreciated.
Overwhelmingly beautiful visually , music choice and narration
Another wonderful video! You really do such a lovely job with your script writing and the pacing of your delivery. Beautiful footage put together with that - and you have a simply sublime experience for your viewers. Thank you once again for sharing your talent with us!
Thank you Sonja, that’s so lovely to hear!
Genuinely can never get enough deep sea content, you make such stunningly compassionate and captivating videos of the under appreciation critters that are usually dismissed as creepy.
This particular video has impacted me on a different level as paired with your beautiful wonderful narration went on, it eventually got backed up by one of the hardest joji tracks ever. Yesssiiirrrrrrr
Your videos are so great !!! cheers from Brazil, from the plot to the narration, to the images, all great, i work with audio and if I could give you one advice it would be : Use a effect called De-Esser, you can find it as a VST and use directly in your video editing software or in any DAW, this will help to reduce the "s" sound and it's reverberations.
I need a list of all the music you use! Perfectly chosen music as always! Thanks for sharing!
No worries at all! The music is listed in the description if you’re looking to find specific tracks :)
Thank you for posting this! Deep sea everything is so fascinating that I’m looking into graduate programs in related areas of study 😍
Oh wow I’m so pleased to hear that!!!!
I love the will he instrumental, it's beautiful and suits the imagery so well.
I wish I could listen to you talk all night long while I sleep or to at least put me to sleep your voice is magic! And I love your channel and you are incredibly intelligent!
Loved the video!! I'm obsessed with this channel. My favorite part of this video was the vampire squid. Squids are amazing.
Thank you so much Elisa!
I was going down a path of hatred. Of the world of people. There’s so much to be angry about and my fellow humans deserve so much blame with me included. So this out of nowhere is a glimmer of hope. Haven’t even watched it but I know it’s going to put me on a better path today.
I’m so happy to hear this, Dave! Humans sure do have a lot to answer for, but never forget how wonderful the world around is can be!
i love the music choices in this vid, it really sets a great scene in addition to the narration :D
The combination of deep sea knowledge and the Joji piano cover playing in the background is perfection
Started from Oceangate and now I’m here
There's an error I noticed. At 9:05, Giant Isopod is said to reach a meter/2,5 ft but a meter is around 3,2 ft. And the largest confirmed Giant Isopod specimen was approximately 50 centimeters. Where did you get the data for a meter?
Check the bibliography
@@zakr1187 That's the point. I checked all 4 sources except the paid one and none of them include a 1 meter long Bathynomus specimen.
Thank you, this bothered me so much. 2.5 feet is ~25cm away from a meter.
Thanks for pointing this out! No idea how I messed up that conversion so badly, but you’re absolutely right. I got the 2.5ft value from a specimen that was hauled up near the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, but have no clue how I then did such a terrible job of rounding the metric conversion! My apologies for this.
Update: I’ve added an on-screen card to correct the error. Thanks again for being so perceptive and pointing this out! There’s always something that slips through the cracks.
i love everything about this vid - the footages, narration, choice of words, music!
Thank you, I love your videos, the creatures of the abyss fascinates me and your voice is so soothing ^^
I'm high as fuck. Let's teach us things. The natural world is fly AF
Bruh what is this beautiful voice
Video was a masterpiece of the deepsea! Blew my socks off good job
What an amazingly soothing voice, it's as if words simply flow out of you.
At 14:30 there’s a really nice remix of Will age by Joji. Does anyone know the remix version
Yes! It’s a cover by Jorge Mendez, can be found here on TH-cam :)
Let him know I sent you haha!
@@NaturalWorldFacts thanks will do. Amazing video too!!!
Thank you :D
This’ the most beautiful thing I’ve seen in a while 😭
These videos are my immediate go-to for a calming experience ✨️
This deep sea documentarys rlly helps with my insomnia, are so comforting and relaxing
That Will He cover was so good I had to repeat that chapter because I wasn't paying attention to what you were saying
This is one of the few nature channels with really tasteful mix of commentary and music. Some top level contact, here.
How is this video for free? Man you are super talented and I’m glad that I found your channel! Keep up the AMAZING work
Gosh I love these videos. I've been listening to them on repeat while preparing for finals.
This channel is fantastic. I’ve been looking for something peaceful and educational to half-listen to while working.
slow dancing in the dark is such a good fit for background music for this subject.
15:03
I loved this mini documentary! Thank youuuuu ❤. I don't know why I am so drawn to deep sea worlds. It is somewhat fascinating to think actual living Beings are thriving so deep in the dark! 👍
Love how he used jojis instrumental song it's bring such a peaceful glow to this video love it
Mr. Richards, you do wonderful work. Thank you.
I can't believe there's only 500 comments. This channel is so peaceful and intriguing. I'm always grateful for each video I watch.
Fantastico education of Anatomical adaption of extreme environment, both repelling n puzzling. Thank you
That Joji piano tho!! great work as always :D
Who ever narrates these videos needs a raise bros voice is so soothing should make a 24 hour video of you talking and reading stories 😁
I'm not going to lie, I had this pop on my home page for awhile, but didn't watch it because it wasn't in the millions of views. But, I decided to click it, I am now subscribed, and thinking this is vastly under viewed. I have barely started watching and the amount of work that has been put into this is just.... bravo. Barely made it past the intro and I'm already fan. Onto the video, let's do this
Absolutely brilliant. I’m a happy and very satisfied new subscriber.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Love the Joji cover! And of course the video.
Great stuff.
