Brine Pool: Hot Tub of Despair | Nautilus Live
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 พ.ค. 2015
- Brine pools, on one hand, provide the basis for life through chemosynthesis for creatures living near them on the bottom of the ocean. On the other hand, the fluid they contain is extremely toxic to many forms of sea life. Here we see creatures that have ventured inside the dangerous interior of the brine pool and failed to return.
During two cruise legs in May of the 2015 E/V Nautilus field season, we deployed remotely operated vehicle (ROV) Hercules to examine some of the cold seep features of the deep Gulf of Mexico.
At some seep sites, seawater interacts with ancient salt deposits found deep in the seafloor, producing a highly saline fluid (brine) that can be more than four times more saline than seawater. When this brine is expelled, it is far denser than the overlying seawater and does not mix very easily with it. In some cases, the brine forms large pools, rivers or lakes.
This highly saline environment is toxic for most organisms, but we did encounter beds of mussels and fields of tube worms that have adapted to life in this extreme habitat by processing seep gases and chemicals into energy. A larger brine pool was dubbed the “Hot Tub of Despair,” referring to its warm temperature (19°C) and high salt content-which can be fatal to many animals unlucky enough to fall in. This site was found nearly 3,300 feet below the surface of the Gulf of Mexico and is a circular pool 100 feet in circumference and 12 feet deep.
We are studying these unique brine pools to better understand how they form, how they may change over time, and how the organisms living near them are able to survive-and even thrive. We analyzed water samples, conducted high-resolution mapping, and completed extensive visual surveys to gather data on these sites that our science partners continue to analyze.

Man: “or maybe they just come here to die”. Woman: “That’s awesome” XD
@Adventure Ha, I was going to point that out but then I saw your comment, interesting response choice 😆🤔
1:22
She's obivously American..."What if we brake it, That's awesome"...
@@spinneborstel Based on your spelling of brake it shows you must be American as well LOL.
Or maybe they are dumb sea animals and crawl in and suffocate before they can get out. That guy doesn't need to give his work more significance than it already has, be humble.
the way that random dude says "Drainage" 3:02
Mitchel Paradowski I was thinking the same thing!
He was referring to the movie"There will be blood".
Sounds like batman.
🤣😂🤣
Haha, beat me to it XD
it's both amazing and depressing how much we still don't know and will probably never know about this planet
Alex Yap and yet government is pouring billions into space exploration for a bunch of dead space rocks and inert gasses, smh.
Well, space exploration also helps to understand what is going on here...
How cute your comment .... But i wonder you really love nature, would you like to tell me how do you know this video? What website take you come here?
Minh Mẫn shut it
I wouldn't say amazing and depressing, I'd say amazing and exhilarating how much we still don't know.
I wonder how long the pool has been there in total? Would be interesting to know if there were long-extinct creatures buried and well-preserved somewhere at the bottom.
i like the death metal guy who gurgled drainage at 3:02. thumbs up
You mean "Draaaaaaainage"?
You mean Daniel Plainview?
Draaaiinage Eeeli!

Never thought I’d see an underwater waterfall! This is what makes science so great.
Science? Or God ? Come on men !!
@@gregnice44 Did I stutter?
@@gregnice44 science.
Got to love the relaxed nature of the conversation. This is the kind of excitement that scientific research is all about, people! And yet people in the comments just want to moan about the conversation's delivery not being polished enough in a documentary glean.
I liked it, they just have to learn to take turns a bit better.
I'll take this kind of conversation over the awful added sound effects plaguing modern documentaries.
@@scunts Ya no kidding, I usually appreciate the commentary and want to listen to what they're saying, but holy crap I feel more annoyed and want to yell STFU and just talk one at a time. This video in particular I find muting it lets me appreciate the beauty of what I'm seeing much more lol
It's just that very little of what's been said is completed and then it's interrupted over by others.
Science? More like lucky to play around with millions of $ of high-tech equipment while on permanent boating vacation.
THIS IS DEADPOOL

How did they not think of "The Waterfall of Woe"?
This!
+M750
They're marine biologists, not English majors
I have looked for this waterfall of woe you speak of.. i have failed at finding it :(
Woe-terfall
SuperAwesome10101 If you want to be pedantic, it absolutely is a waterfall. It just happens to be higher density/salinity water falling (spilling) over a mineral build-up into lower density/salinity water.
The same way you can have a lake or a river at the bottom of the ocean.
Damn so Sponge Bob was real there are seas inside of a sea I bet this is BikiniBottom
Bob bob theres also a river in the ocean aswell
Yes. There was a photo of a diver fishing from the undersea river as well. 😆
Goo Lagoon
@@MEGAF4IL yeah but fishes die in this brine pool, So this isn't goo lagoon.
@@kingbeast777 could the fish in spongebob breathe under the surface in goo lagoon?
I don’t know how in the world this TH-cam channel was recommended to me but I’m so glad that it was. I always watch these videos before I go to bed because I find them so interesting and relaxing. It kind of makes me wish that in another life I became a marine biologist and studied the ocean floor. Thank you guys for this amazing content 😀
"Jacuzzi of Despair"
"Hot Tub of Hope"
Someone's been playing a video game...
so you mean there's another kind of water underwater? i love scientists!
Like in spongebob
Its called the goo lagoon have u seen spongebob before
There’s also rivers and lakes.
There’s all kinds of pools lakes and rivers in the ocean based on temp and salinity
There's water at the bottom of the ocean.
"maybe they just come here to die" sameee
me too thanks
So how many years has that crab been there? They didn't let him say.
"it's anybodies guess"
420 years
and three days.
rollie4 and I was wanting o hear his guess.
The salt may have preserved it fairly well, so they didn't know
I remember learning about brine pools in the Christmas special of the Octonauts! My defense: I've got 3 kids under 5 and that episode was amusing.
I love octonauts.
Right, no need to explain lol
Why do you need a defense

Wow might not even reply but I love your videos

Hi
"There is water at the bottom of the ocean."
Awesome video!
that was brilliant to watch. thanks to all those involved in filming and posting the video for us land based animals to see.
"-Maybe they just come here to die.
- that's awesome."
Yes it is lady, it bloody is.
Everyone imagines scientists as super serious and grumpy, but they're just huge nerds
The Wet Lettuce nerds researching what they are most nerdy about :D
Since Stephen Hillenburg was an actual marine biologist, it's likely he knew about this the whole time.
That brine waterfall was... wow...
Thank you to EVERYONE who had any slight part in putting this EVNautilus thing together for us...I'm on my 20th video or so....just fanTAStic stuff!
Facebook is having a click bait fest with this video lol.
Because the Clinton emails are old news and no-one cares.
+Sam Lee - Imagine if the roles were switched, and Donald Trump was the one who made the poor decision to send and receive emails from the wrong computer, while Hillary Clinton was consorting with Russian forces who are effectively openly breaking into U.S. government systems and attempting to influence the presidential election.
Please tell me which of the two sounds more significant. The same Donald Trump supporters acting like the Russian thing is no big deal would be calling for the execution of Hillary Clinton on grounds of treason if she was the one implicated.
+Sam Lee Why do you have to bring race into it by saying "Giving some black dude a Ferrari"? Why can't Drake just be giving some guy a Ferrari?
***** I don't care. Still voting Hillary. Trump is a literal nightmare.
Aurelia C. Could you please go into more detail about Trump consorting with the Russian forces? Could you at least provide some actual evidence to your wild and what I believe false accusation against the next President of the United States?
It's fools like this "Aurelia" character who repeat and fabricate false accusations that is just a way to smear our candidate. Just a repetition / regurgitation of what some obvious paid Hillary shill that spews out lies in an attempt to destroy a man.
@EVNautilus from 4:00 to 4:07 on the down left side of the screen, something is entering the "pool".
When i add freshwater to my saltwater tank you get the same reaction in the water.
So since the brine so salty it makes seawater like the freshwater when i top off my tanks and you get the same reaction on the brine drain off. So cool love this!
Well that made more sense that what these scientists said, so thanks
I like how one of the first and last things they think about doing is disturbing it just to see what happens
Oh my gosh, we are such nerds! I'm sitting here in Charlotte NC, 9 PM, and being all excited with you. "Oh, look at that brine overflow; that is so cool." Very cool to be able to ride along and share in your discoveries. Wonderful to "meet" folks who truly have found their passion.
Wow, that brine flow is amazing, as is the entire region. I surely love the images and the commentary by the crew!!! Thanks!
This is really amazing! You guys are doing incredible work!
Thanks.
"they come here to die"
Honey they're kings and you're trespassing
"You can't just put a hole into a wall of brine pool!!"
"The drill is ready."
You can't just shoot a hole into the surface of mars
So, cause we only see the edge, it's really unclear to me exactly how large this "lake" actually is. Anyone have an idea?
Ahhh, thanks!
it's 100 feet in diameter and 12 feet deep
"Do you feel it now Mr. Krabs."
So beaches in SPONGEBOB were scientific after all !!!
OK now..... how do we explain fire in Spongebob.....
thermite, napalm, greek fire?
Chlorine trifluoride? That's likely what real Greek fire was. It can even set water on fire and light ashes back up again.
Lool at the mantis shrimp. Sparks underwater.
Aren’t they like- dead volcanos in the ocean?
Steam from hydrothermal vents sometimes resembles fire/smoke
Super clear, amazing video. Keep up the good work guys 👏🏻
It's cool how underwater you can see other liquids flowing like water.

This whole channel is AMAZING.. thanks for letting me sit in your conversations and absorb some of the VAST knowledge y'all provide 👌 😌 🙌 💯 🙏
A world within a world....wow...beautiful, thank you, now to the next episode...I could watch a two hour one ...love this stuff...straight observations...with lots of WOWs :)
Guy talking : "Or maybe they just come here to die"
Girl: "That's awesome"
i feel u
so this is how the pools in spongebob work
ibo ayoubi so thats why they drown in the sea
That is ocean's suicide point.
Good video! Commentary is so chill. More of this, please!
whoa!......a thousand meters deep!..... nobody knows what kind of awesome life grows there, my imagination blows up
┌п┐(►_◄҂)┌п┐ I´m macho john thompson
Cthulhu and his minions, and your sanity would be blown up!
Hey Nautilus-Crew!
So I really enjoy your videos and it's absoooolutely amazing what u guys are showing!
A question that comes up is: why dont you take samples of the "brine" and mussels and maybe a dead crab or maybe you could put a crab that just died into a brine pool and see how it changes over time (might be that a normal shore crab is just going to crack under the immense pressure but since you have such a sophisticated robot you should figure out a solution for that haha)
Also - As mentioned in the video, what would happen if you destroyed a brine pool? The salty water inside of it would simply mix with the seawater and dilute until it becomes normal seawater in the end? or what exactly does the brine-fluid contain? And it sure does change while being taken up to the surface? (pressure changes and so on)
Thanks for your efforts and i'd love to hear from you!
Wow 6 yrs ago! Thank you IV found this very interesting and fun to watch.❤❤❤
hands down the best youtube channel to exist
Fantastic. So, what was the estimate on how long that crab has been in the brine pool?
Riaan Jutte They always keep unanswered questions. They should have a monthly debrief.
Riaan Jutte 420 years and 3 days
Tragician hahahahahahah
The crab's dead shiny eyes silently accuse the ROV. "Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'entrate."
Angry Kittens I think he said something in Italian or French not sure
I want an uncut version, I'd watch this for hours.
Wow this is so awesome!! I would love to be a marine biologist one day. I think the ocean is just so interesting and beautiful. So many creatures and things we have no clue of. Amazing
The "cascade" mineral deposit cpmment that it looks like a waterfall - I was standing on a mountain top in the Rockies one time as a teenager and I had a moment of revelation (I guess) that the mountain was falling down and I was standing in a moment of time so brief that the mountain looked like it was not moving but all around were rocks that were there, where they were, only temporarily.
wow, this is amazing. and good insightful commentary.
though, I'd really like to get an answer to "how long has the crab been dead?" question. he kinda dodged out of that one :D
That's the point when I kinda realized this dude actually knew his stuff. He didn't want to give a wrong answer and actually weighed his words.
Thank you for sharing these great videos
So crazy. The waves and the waterfalls?! Underwater and land mimic each other in so many ways!!
Whoever said "DRAINAGE" in Daniel Plainview's voice: I love you
Kind of makes me wonder how much is actually preserved in the deeper parts of the brine pool.
Superb footage, beautiful heliocline from that brine hottub.
I'm amazed at the quality and clarity of the footage...I'm guessing that camera cost a fortune!
They finally discovered The Fountain of Youth.
Technically you will be pickled so yes you are immortal!

3:02 Batman: "Drainage"
This is wonderfully unsettling.
Thats like a sea within a sea. It has beaches and even a waterfall. Amamzing
Amazing! Underwater waterfall!!! What an amazing world we live in!
Who are the 60+ people who disliked THIS? Why?
That crab with it's legs sticking up above the surface of the brine was incredible. It looked like it was sitting in water with its legs sticking up out of the water, but the entire situation IS UNDER WATER!!! MIND=💣💥
P
as to the sixty ppl, most likely they didn't want utube to flood them with similar or even the same videos as suggestions, which they do even if you just view a video, not to mention like it. only by disliking a video can one keep from being inundated by a subject one doesn't care for, like laughing about the death of the poor crabs....personally, i thot it was a good video, i will give no dislike
(dives in)
Amazing footage. Beyond cool!
Pools of liquid in liquid are always fascinating
"Maybe they come here to die." Because crabs just can't deal with the complexities of life. 😐
I get the idea of preservation. Does that mean that we can possibly find prehistoric fishes in those pools? Has someone tried looking in these or are our machines not capable of traversing through brine pools without damage
I love all your commentary!
God how incredible a gallery piece would some of those evaporite encrusted arthropods be
this crab look like creature from other planet, awesome
Wow! The out flow rate is amazingly high! Where is the inflow? I think that is an intriguing direction of investigation.
Also, are the crustaceans benefiting from some of the brine overflow as well? It is interesting to see the boarder line of their proximity to the top of the wall. Clearly a not livable zone. Much like the tree line, on a high altitude mountain.
This video and it's commentary makes me so happy and I can't explain why...
this rules; in the times where we measure importance in days or hours it's nice having awesome material from years and years ago just waiting to be discovered like an awesome brine pool at the bottom of a gulf.
We could start a spin off from "Will it Blend" called "Will it Live". Send different creatures inside to see if they can survive or thrive.
well you gotta choose carefully, otherwise you might fill the whole thing up!

That would be ethically questionable, they are scientist, not psychopath

This some weird dudebro "I love to treat women like trash" declaration?

GloriousMane He/she never mentioned women. Tras de ladrón, bufón.
Psychological projection, it's pathological in non-functional sociopaths like you.
But he’s a man...it’s safe to bet he’s talking about woman.

I love their enjoyment of brine. It brings me joy.
I was waiting for the mandatory -this is cool dude, hold my beer!
I love that there’s so many people commentating and I love the content but sometimes the audio becomes overwhelming. I love all your work and I hope you’re inspiring kids to get into the field
Remember to equip the Reinforced Diving Suit when freediving near brine flows.
I would be interested to know the concentration of salt in the brine pool, as well as the other toxins in the pool.
answer the question
Hot tub of despair and hot tub of hope? Sounds like a scene from Danganronpa.
upupupupupu
Weeb
I've never seen brine moving this is so cool
WOW
We have so much to learn about the oceans of this world
What did you finally decide to call that brine overfow?
Evolution Pending a response and in keeping with the theme, I propose the Lament Falls.
So for how long was that crab down there?! WTF?!!!!
DonMikimax I though it's was headcrab!!!
Imanyne Imtiyaz Who the hell cares. Head-crab, crab, all the same. The guy did not answer the question!
420 years and 3 days?
Enough to make alot of money for the krust krab
How awe-inspiring they observe the frailty of lesser creatures mortality..
Say, falling into that brine having all that mineralization around the crustaceans, you
think that might make fairly decent conditions for some early stages of fossil formation?
What's the depth here? People are 'sharing' this with idiotic headlines as if this was something just underneath the surface, some toxic area that causes instant death.
DRAINAGE 3:00
3:02
@EVNautilus do they end up taking sediment and/or the dead crabs( tosee how long they have been in there) from the pool to study?
No where did I read or hear, the size of the Pool or its location. Are they natural formations occuring elsewhere or the results of hot spots.
