Did I count THREE WHALE SHARKS? That's crazy! And those manta rays, too. This is so amazing. I really want to visit the Georgia Aquarium, omg. Those animals are so majestic. This tank must be ENORMOUS. I can literally stare at this for hours.
What an excellent video. I was in Atlanta visiting my girlfriend who lives in Marietta last week and we went to the Aquarium. Seeing those Whale Sharks just blew me away an amazing sight. Thank you for bringing the memories back....I Love Atlanta
Gives me anxiety knowing they're swimming in circles not in the ocean which only 5% has been explored by humans but we are stealing animals out of their natural environment for our own selfish greed. So fkd up
+Vegan Moll they were brought in as babies and the tanks have currents fir them to swim in. btw fish have been SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN TO have low intelligence not all species but most.
Max Bensly So that means they don't know shit? Fish are actually very intelligent beings in their own ways, Obviously not in there swimming round & round
I always try to help people take good pictures of their vacation. The truth is a lot of people don't know how to turn the flash off. They suffer from "MPS" Minimum Photography Skills. I work on the So. Cal. Coastline, so people would ask me to take their pic with the ocean in the background. In the days of real film, I would always say "One more just in case" then cut their heads off. I always imagined them saying when they got the prints back. "Good thing he took another one"'
Nice video! My wife and I just went diving in that exhibit last Friday. Awesome experience and a lot less people under water than there are at the window :)
After a while that I get to be mesmerized by their beauty, I begin to wonder - which of these different fish personalities am I most fascinated about?! (^-^)
Very Interesting video I live in Las Vegas right now. And I have visited the Shark Reef Aquarium inside the Mandalay Bay. Its a pretty huge Aquarium actually one of the largest in North America. But looking at the Georgia Aquarium on internet through me off makes Vegas's aquarium look like a box lol. But me and my are relocating to Atlanta, Georgia real soon well the city's suburb to be exact we def plan on visiting the Georgia Aquarium once we move there. And I have also visited the one in Long Beach, California. I that city had a nice aquarium well me being from L.A. I say everything is nice in So Cal. Even tho its kinda funny to see how this states aquarium is located in its state capital Atlanta. I'm surprised its not located near the states coastal area like Savannah, GA.
They're fed, away from boaters and poachers, away from fishing nets, away from a lot of the things that would kill them and there's enough space for all of them. I'm more than certain this isn't cruel. Just look at them, guys. They're fine!
Take the "Behind the Scenes Tour" if you want to be amazed at the inner workings of this facility. It is extra in cost but I found it very educational. From food storage, biology labs, vets to a morgue to determine cause of death and prevent spread of outbreaks in the aquarium. There was a story where a catfish had part of its jaw bitten and they performed plastic surgery on it and it got so big in isolation during recover nothing messed with it after it was returned to the aquarium.
Was there yesterday..... Fantastic, well worth the price! Tank is made of Acrylic (17 times stronger than glass) and is 24 inches thick, they had a sample/cross-section of it at the base of the tank. Warning "Don't go in there hungry, spent $61.00 for lunch for 3 (2 Burgers with fries, Polish Sausage, 1 water, 2 bottled Sodas 20oz).... Oh almost forgot, add: 2 Brownies and a mini Cheesecake. Food was OK, prices are ridiculously EXPENSIVE!
If your looking for a fun road trip to Atlanta then I would say yes, the Georgia Aquarium is worth the drive. I would see the World of Coke and GA Aquarium on the same day with a combo pass to see both. then, visit Stone Mountain the next day. If your still not satisfied yet make the 1.5 hour drive north to Chattanooga to see the Tennessee Aquarium which is maybe better than the Ga Aquarium. It has more to do and better restaurants near by.
This may not be 100% morally correct but it's much more tame than what Seaworld does. The whale sharks in this video don't look sick and aren't showing obvious signs of anxiety or depression, unlike the poor Orcas at Seaworld, who had sagging fins, wound marks around their mouths (from bumping into the tank walls), and would pace back and forth tirelessly.
That's the largest window in the ocean voyager gallery. But first , after getting to that window , you have to pass a tunnel , next it says that there are two more spots after getting to that window. It says that the largest window in the whale shark exhibit ( ocean voyager gallery ) is 23 feet tall , 61 feet wide and 2 feet thick
SomethingClever SomethingDorky The sharks are fed by the trainers. I think they already removed the Hammerheads recently, which is a shame tho. I loved the Hammerheads
lucky! I got to sleep next to the lion exhibit at the zoo actually, it wasn't that relaxing though... especially since I woke up twice too see one of the female lions walking right past me and starring....
people comparing this to sea world are so off base. it's a 6 million gallon aquarium and more than likely the whale sharks are juveniles being rehabilitated...
+Rhubiarb again more than likely for rehab, and I'm not defending keeping whales or sharks in captivity but in the context of rehabilitation if it's proven successful I see no problem
Anybody can dive if you are certified. We even received a whale shark specialty designation from PADI and had an amazing behind the scenes experience of the entire aquarium as well as watching how the whale sharks are fed. Check out their website and you can see how you can dive too. We also got into the water with the beluga whales the next day. I have the video of our dive on my TH-cam page.
That's all they've got in the biggest aquarium in the world ? Thousands of fishes in a huge tank and people just keep staring at it ? No dolphin shows ? Penguin dance ? Water diving ? Dome shaped aquarium pathway ?
+Vegan Moll worse happens in the wild m8 xD xD xD these animals are safer in the aquarium then they ever would have been in the wild...Mother Nature is cruel...I remember catching a fish and letting it go, only for it to be eaten by a barracuda 10 seconds later

The hard work to carry the whale shark a big trailer i guess this is beyond perfect
I'm so glad I live close to this beautiful place. I love the Georgia Aquarium
MY FAV PART OF THE AQUARIUM!! coolest room!
this music just opened up a thought bubble of life that i never really think about.
Love video and music to this tranquil underwater experience.
What an excellent job you did. Love the music and I think its cool that you were able to get all the adults and children being drawn in by the sights!
this is so so relaxing, thank you so much. i love the bit at 6:01 where the guy waves goodbye to the fish. fucking spectacular. thanks man.
This video really helps when I'm having bad anxiety or nausea because of anxiety. So calming, I love it! Thank you!!
Gives me anxiety knowing they're swimming in circles not in the ocean which only 5% has been explored by humans but we are stealing animals out of their natural environment for our own selfish greed. So fkd up

+MwR52981 no, are you? Do you understand what's it's like to treat animals like Fkn rapists & lock them up.
+Vegan Moll lol your so over reacting
Fish are so sloww and steady. Its relaxing
thank you for putting this online at youtube , i love it
Does it make anyone angry to see all those flashes go off? Why would you use a flash to take a picture of something in a reflective surface?
So true I would just take my flash off

This video gave me chills.
I can't believe they have whale sharks in an aquarium! I wanna go!
thanks for sharing this, one of the best aquariums i cant wait to go back
Nice video! My wife and I just went diving in that exhibit last Friday. Awesome experience and a lot less people under water than there are at the window :)
I went to the Georgia Aquarium a few years ago. Marvelous time!
can't believe I'm missing this OMG came here because my niece's baby was crying :D
I went to the Georgia Aquarium many times because of those beautiful manta rays.
After a while that I get to be mesmerized by their beauty, I begin to wonder - which of these different fish personalities am I most fascinated about?! (^-^)
Thank you, Brandon! Great job on the video and music choice - perfect.
Good memories!

Such a calming vid
This made me wanna go fishing. Nice video though.

You're an idiot.
SomethingClever SomethingDorky yea their fine, and the more space the better.
SomethingClever SomethingDorky mm
@@lordrevan773 if you would take the time to RESEARCH how they got the whale sharks, you would understand it isn't cruel.
SomethingClever SomethingDorky so if I put you in a cage and tell you you’re safe from murderers and rapists, it’s okay?
Can't wait to go here!

just went there this past Wed. It was awesome :)
Stunning.
that's one strong piece of acrylic!
So relaxing
beautiful
I was surprised to learn that the Georgia Aquarium is in Atlanta. I had thought it would be close to the seashore.
Holy moly this vid is amazing
It really is amazing
I could stare at this for at least 5 hours
Very calming video. But and a big but, poor whale sharks locked up like that - usually they swim so far.
haha compare this to my 5g tank with a hang on back filter. This shit is on another level stunning all the fishes look so calm and swim in herds. Gosh
Very nice video :)
I love it there it's amazing ;)
If your looking for a fun road trip to Atlanta then I would say yes, the Georgia Aquarium is worth the drive.

Actually, they saved these whales from poachers who were illegally going to catch them and turn them into food...
my dad said that when we go to Disney world on the way there will go the aquarium I cant wait : )
How was it?? It just made it on my list of places to see, just from the first 4 minutes of this video.
wonderful ^^
I saw a chinese fishing boat go by did you?
Whale sharks grow to 14 metres, so how big is the tank?
I went there once, basically a full bodygasm the entire time
can i know the name of the song.. its really nice
That's the largest window in the ocean voyager gallery. But first , after getting to that window , you have to pass a tunnel , next it says that there are two more spots after getting to that window. It says that the largest window in the whale shark exhibit ( ocean voyager gallery ) is 23 feet tall , 61 feet wide and 2 feet thick
This makes the ocean voyager gallery the largest indoor aquatic habitat IN THE WORLD
How many aquaclear filters does it take to filter that water
its transparent plastic sometimes called acrylic glass that has a thickness of 600mm-900mm, ( bullet resistant,not proof ) :D
How was it?
I want this in my living room
Honestly didn't think a lot of these species could co-exist without trying to kill each other; especially considering there are reef sharks in there.
Welcome to nature.
they're all trained to eat what the trainers give them which is actually a pretty good idea!
SomethingClever SomethingDorky The sharks are fed by the trainers. I think they already removed the Hammerheads recently, which is a shame tho. I loved the Hammerheads
Dude, I gotta know what the name of the song is, it's so relaxing!
I actually slept overnight in this very room.
lucky! I got to sleep next to the lion exhibit at the zoo actually, it wasn't that relaxing though... especially since I woke up twice too see one of the female lions walking right past me and starring....
The Bushwacker 💀
What is it called? I've looked it up and I can't find it.
people comparing this to sea world are so off base. it's a 6 million gallon aquarium and more than likely the whale sharks are juveniles being rehabilitated...
Really? how the fuck did they get a whale shark there? the same way they got the orcas. they stole them from the ocean you fool
+Reece Jones they're rehabbing jeuveniles
+Rhubiarb again more than likely for rehab, and I'm not defending keeping whales or sharks in captivity but in the context of rehabilitation if it's proven successful I see no problem
The fish look like they are swimming in slow motion. Are they ok?
I seriously need a trip to see this place?
how thick is that glass?
what'd you have to do to go diving there?
Just an expensive ticket? Friend of an aquarium employee?
what are those whale sharks eating in there? aren't they normally swallowing loads of plankton? can't imagine theres much in the aquarium
And how was it? :)

We even received a whale shark specialty designation from PADI and had an amazing behind the scenes experience of the entire aquarium as well as watching how the whale sharks are fed.

a 8,1 Hectare Zoo with 2,5 Million Visitors per Year is impressive
They fly the whale sharks in from Taiwan (where the meat is considered a delicacy) via UPS planes in big holding tanks.
Yes they do...
So then what do they listen to?
Songs For Tropical Fish...
yeah, there was too many people to really enjoy the aquarium that day...
feeding time must look chaotic
will sharks gang up and bully small fishes lol
Wouldn't all those pictures being taken with flash come out pretty shitty?
Most yes but also most people don't know how to properly use a point-in-shoot camera. They just set them to auto and go with that.
Noobs.
this Georgia Aquarium video was the one is the one that I want the most so whoever made it I love you
I watch this Georgia Aquarium videos and also whoever made this is Georgia Aquarium video I love you so much
who what nevermind
What the hell was the meaning of that reply??
woah i counted 5 whale sharks!
They got frigign whale sharks???
I've been there once
They should clean the line in the middle of the glass tho.
its all fun in games until someones gotta clean that tank up
Myever best place for public and family enter meant.
Mother of god....I want to gooo
super
sadly wonderful ! :/
Okah. I'm going there before I die. I have to.
I've been there before
my betta would never survive in there oh my
make a great screen saver.
we are going tomorrow
How was it?
its more amazing in real life i lived in Atlanta
That's all they've got in the biggest aquarium in the world ? Thousands of fishes in a huge tank and people just keep staring at it ? No dolphin shows ? Penguin dance ? Water diving ? Dome shaped aquarium pathway ?
If you go you'll come to find that everything you just said is there.
It's cruel
+Vegan Moll worse happens in the wild m8 xD xD xD these animals are safer in the aquarium then they ever would have been in the wild...Mother Nature is cruel...I remember catching a fish and letting it go, only for it to be eaten by a barracuda 10 seconds later
Dang man... just wow, and you had to see that. Wow.
Xeni Wolfe humans are safer in prison. Do we deserve to be locked up for no reason at all all for human entertainment? You're a speciesist
I think I heard 20" thick
Did you talk to my girlfriend?
Captivity is cruel!
+Kelly Addams nope.
im going on may 5th 2013
I had so much fun when I went recently you can check out my vlog from there on my channel adventures with cs
4 whale sharks
