- This is the unusual story of a little-known insect : the water beetle. Having spent the winter beneath the ice, the water beetle which can walk, swim, and fly, stirs with the first signs of spring. Its habitat : a small pond. Its neighbors : dragonflies, frogs and newts. Its daily life : survival. Between two skirmishes, it gives birth to some twenty larvae of varying kinds...only the most voracious will make it to adulthood before the pond dries out.

Oh boy , I feel overwhelmed. Am I the only 1 that loves Wildlife Documentaries, found loads on TH-cam, saved as many as you can to playlist. Realise that you have over 100 and don’t even know where to start? I find a new TH-cam channel and if they have lots of full docs, then I feel compelled to the extent that I MUST save to playlist. I’m kinda having a laugh but I’m kinda serious, at same time. I feel like a hard core drug addict. I don’t even have enough time to watch all these docs and I still can’t stop adding to list. 😭
loool the squeeky plastic sound when the bug laid eggs lmao
Best entomological greetings from Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine.
the sound effects added though makes me chuckle
I love this documentary i wish i can get another documentary just like this.
You can if you watch it again lol.
This is one of my favourite documentaries! I've seen it many times and still it fascinates me.Good narration and truly captivating.
Man, that Foley artist works so hard!! Those underwater sounds couldn't be recorded? Right?
The best documentary I have ever watched in my life. The suspense of not knowing what creature those devils will turn out to be. The dragonfly is a monster indeed.
The fact that I got so attached to Water beetles really shows how great the narrator is.
Hahahaaa😁🤣🥰
This documentary kicks ass
This photography and camera recording is amazing under water..kudos👊
33:05 my first time to hear siblings pronounced as "saiblings"...we're always learning!
A documentary is only as good as its narrator
Great cinematography, wonderful detailed close ups.
The narration is absolutely hilarious :D
That music @ 27:00 is so Opeth :)
Muy chévere
I think this documentary is impressive.
Thank u
These waterbugs fascinated me from when I was a kid.
They are very spectacular to see and when they are in larval state they look even more ferocious.
I think the sound effects are cool. Makes it more interesting. If the scenes were just silent, it would seem there was something lacking from the film... You wouldn't be able to put your finger on it but something would seem missing and off... I think the sound effects- weather a bit overdone or not- were necessary.
Captivating narration, it felt like a movie whose storyline I was invested in! ❤
I don't know why everyone here is salty about this documentary. I mean, you probably watched it all. And I liked it, I was different than the usual documentaries.
although i really dislike all water insects, esp. one that prey on higher life forms,9 i know its natural but its still interesting, its not high budget but hardly shameful.
Edward Kelley very good
Thank you so much for this excellent informative documentary
An excellent documatry do one on a tropical pond and with the birds etc
Would be very interesting to see some behind-the scene footage
Brilliant documentary and well narrated :) thanks!
I learn new knowledge on water beetle, and also blood worms, thank you.
Good doc but the foley sound team need to drink less coffee next time.
Excellent photography
haha love the narrator... this is very well done it's amazing
Interesting story. Thank you.
Ah! Finally, a documentary with the full picture! Thankyou ☺ X (and If there's no interruption from adverts or prompts, I'm subscribing☺)
Dang-o Hollywood special effects on point!
The overdone sound effects are always obnoxious in these documentaries. A water bug laying eggs doesn't sound like a person abusing a bunch of celery irl.
Heather Deer thank you!!! Totally agreed.
I agree with you to a certain extent, and while I wholeheartedly agree that a water beetle laying its eggs in Iris stalks would not sound like a human chowing down on a stick of celery! My only disagreement/dispute with you would be that we don't know how these sub-aquatic sounds appear or present to other pond-dwellers... I am no expert, not by a very very long shot! but having owned fish and other aquatic creatures for 20+ years, I know that they are capable of picking up things we would not have thought possible. just my 2 cents...

Great thing about the comment section, now we can collectively complain about it.
Stopped watching at 4:53 due to ^
Ridiculous sfx 🍬
The type of people who can find a problem with anything, we’ve all come into contact with these people, nothing satisfies them absolutely nothing at all.
The sound effects it sounds like ASMR
Love the sound effects! More!
Is this a nature documentary or an ASMR video?! Rustle rustle, squelch, drip, scratch...
This was amazing!!!
Erlkönig
Ok.. Time to watch this again... lol
Good show
Good
Fabulous! Loved it.!
@23:09 It is most likely digestive enzymes, not poison.
The sound effects added to silent underwater photography was extremely offputting.
Non stop bird, brook sounds and sink drops
The foley rustled a lot of paper for this soundtrack.
I love the violin music tho
Thanks for uploading this wonderful documentary - it is the first one I have seen purely dedicated to Dytiscus (marginalis). As an entomologist (herpetologist), I love the study, conservation and photography of freshwater macro-invertebrates! I am both interested in water insects of the temperate zones as well as in those found in the subtropics and tropics (including giant water bugs)!
This is a great video, very good quality with some really nice shots. One question: Is the 'green monster' really a dragonfly nymph or a damselfly nymph? I did think damselfly nymphs had the three fins at the end of their abdomen.
I think there was some confusion between the two - the nymph in the pond was a dragonfly, then what emerged was definitely a damselfly and then we briefly saw a shot of a dragonfly.... poor continuity there.
I enjoyed this, thanks
I'M ENJOY THIS DOCUMENTARY
love the narration
The Green Giant, was a Damselfly, not a Dragonfly, then just before it took off to the air, they showed a Dragonfly
Owen Ltd it was a dragonfly
James F oh.
the documentary showed the nymphs of both, but the molting scene shows a damsel
In Europe they call both 'dragonflies.'
@@FerndaleMichiganUSA Only by people that don't know insects very well... You won't find many biologists that would call a damselfly a dragonfly (but they are fairly closely related, belonging to the same order)
16:52 sounds like my stomach after coffee lol
Water beetle cooms for 3 hours, and the fap sound for the newt was hilarious too.
Why did they name the last larva to hatch Number Three? I kept thinking maybe they just meant that one was going to be the third to reach the surface, but then the thing with Number Two happened and... blew that theory out of the water.
I really want to know if they legitimately kept track of each one during the filming process and wrote it down, or if they just cobbled some footage together and made up a story about it. That one adult water beetle was their father? Please.
Ok in my opinion I wouldn’t have noticed all the sound effects if I hadn’t gone into the comment section first and all the complaints about them. I became more aware of what I was hearing while watching this, which is what made it distracting....
BUT...
Honestly, besides the hatching & snail eating sounds, the rest wasn’t as bad as people made it out to be. Is the sound quality exaggerated? Yes..
And yet it still managed to kept me intrigued & was overall, an enjoyable program to watch.
First few mins i thought this doco was boring then it turned out to be the most interesting doco ive ever watched
loved it
What!? Number 6 is evolving...!!!
I now know much more about the water beetle than I ever wanted.
I love the narration and filming of this, but HATE all those ear piercing high notes from the sound effects. Gives me a headache
Bugs is bugs.
So your susceptible to high frequency..hmm.
A predictor is knocking..😉
@@mtbalpinecounty didn't get it. Please explain:)
Bugs ARE* bugs...
Predator*
Dumbass.
Wtf
People complain cause they can. It's funny.
21:15 IT'S A GHETTTOOO LOL
The music at 27:00. Love it!!
Does anybody know which camera they used to shoot this documentary?
Did anyone see the balls on that first salamander? Also, how savage is that water beetle? “I’m just gon cement that shit shut now-“
Anyone have a better documentary rec for pond/lake wildlife? Does Planet Earth avoid ponds because of the typical lack of water clarity?
Great foley sounds!
lol...those fake sound effects are kind of funny....like the frog jump sound
I believe I can work out the pond insect food chain however it does need a fish and a tadpole.
Ok. Those blood worms are one of the creepiest things I've ever seen.
The sound effects are straight out of stranger things. I love it.
I loved this
21:46 - It’s Rice Crispy’s! That’s the sound, not celery, it’s snap, crackle and pop!
ASMR it’s not, but it is pretty informative.
Foley went over board.
5:14 ... oviPOSER? lol I think you mean ovipositor?
im depressed about number 2 :(
And number four and ten and are live
They don't know the difference between poison and venom?
Damn. Water Beetle babies stand no chance against dragonfly babies. R.I.P 6
Even insect don't wanna let other do,or touch his queen😁😁I am sure the sound is not the actual sounds but it's using a sound that is produce by a person during eating some burger or McDonald's or eating chicken leg piece from KFC
The sound effects though lol
LOVE the sound effects!!
This makes me want to play Spore
Saw this documentary in the Spanish tv years ago and it was since then my favorite documentary. I am very happy to have found it again, but the version in English is atrocious. The narrator and the sound effects are over the top, and destroy this marvelous documentary.
It does not appear in the catalogue of Saint Thomas Productions, so I really don't know what to do to find the version in Spanish.
I hope there's another version somewhere with better narrator and sfx.
Green giant=dragon fly larvae?
I'm into the subject matter, but half way through, I considered muting the sound
the nauseating sounds are totally unnecessary and fake
So at this time, there were no Ants on Earth.
Little beetles r screwed
That was fucking awesome

I also don't like the creepy crawler sound track either.
the male newt gets aroused by the water bugs "love making"... I don't believe it
Pond porn
27:00 beautiful
Great documentary I like it I give this video thumbs up 👍 for sure hands 🤚 down👇 no doubt? Keep it rocking 😎
the sounds effects under water are ridiculous.
47:00 me at four bottle, lol
Pause the video then click here -> 40:49
Is that gold ?
Ice sublimes? Must be a French thing.
Damn noisy frogs (ha) waking every one.
Music 🤣🤣🤣 during fight of no.3, 5 and 6
65 million years ago…… LOL!!!
Why is the meteor burning up before it enters the Earth's atmosphere??
