Stunning! Stephen is a legend for bringing us these images, especially after 2020's horrific bushfires here in Australia, seeing the fungi growing back was a symbol of hope.
Thank you so much - it also gave us great hope that if these fires do not occur too frequently or too savagely that the forest has developed ways to regenerate. Thank you so much for your support.
I could watch it all day!
👆how is TH-cam okay with this behavior? These people target people's accounts that have public favor and shame their name by selling drugs under their comments. I've recorded every incident we are halfway to one thousand. I reported every single one. This is harassment. This whole people are selling drugs on videos where kid have access yet you better not cuse? WTF TH-cam? "🍄🍄🍄🍄💊💊💊💊" How do you not have this flagged? This is destroying wounded veterans chance at help with this medicine. I'm all for people having access to any drug they want but there is a wrong way and a right one. Colorado is doing it right. TH-cam is potentially killing dumb tweens with no friends. How could anyone be that dumb but kids? TH-cam is trash lately...
I like how the slime mold just invites itself and liquifies the mushrooms
The slime moulds are crazy with the time lapse. 👍🏻
Aren't they - supper cool. We also loved the frog - Litoria peroni [Emerald spotted tree frog] that made its way into our fungarium.
Agreed.
In 3 years I'll become a Biological Sciences' teacher in Brazil. I'll make sure to share the masterpieces of this page with all my students. Right now, I'm sharing it with everyone I know. Everyone should see the singular beauty of fungi! I thank you with my heart for making such content available. ^^
It’s one year away now, hope you’re still on your way to share your passion!
@@twicebang4556 It's been really tough and I've come to be almost alone on the road, but I'm still there. Hope I get to work and become a good teacher. :)
Amazing! Im stunned!
Glow in the dark mushys are muh fav!
Yes very special aren't they. We helped document a new species of luminous mushroom in India - it grows on bamboo. If you're interested it is in our fungi safari documentary in the Eastern Himalayas. Catherine directed and edited it and there a lot of my time-lapses in that one also - www.planetfungi.movie
Fantastic! And I love the photobombing critters 🕷 !
Me too!
Me encanto la forma en que has visibilizado el modo en que nuestros queridos amigos fungi realizan su desarrollo de trayectoria vital, muchas gracias por compartir. Felicitaciones, espléndido trabajo.
Beautiful and relaxing. Thank you friend ❤️
never ceases to amaze me :0
One of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. Nature’s primary decomposes in action! 🍄
Absolutely fascinating and so beautiful ! - Thank you 😇
Thanks for this amazing video.
Thank you🍄

Fantastic photography!!! Such beautiful organisms that most people know nothing about.
I'm watching this as I clean my harvest of liberty caps, and I have to say this guy is very inspiring and I love his work.
so amazing, it looks unreal
Beautiful. ❤️
Beautiful things to watch. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏻👍🏻
Amazing mushrooms ❤
Fungi are cool. We need more fungi in this world.
Огромное Огромное Вам Спасибо за Тайны природы ,которые Благодаря Вам мы Можем Видеть ❤
Amazing.. Good work
The liitle blue one is adorable
Amazing. Thank you for your work. Found you through a comment under Russel Brand’s TH-cam Channel/Podcast😊
Yes!! Love these!🙏🏼😁
These are incredible.
Fantastic!
They really are fantastic !!
Thank you so much.
Wonderful!!!
The amount of time and love spent on filming these gorgeous mushrooms is amazing.
Well done and what a beutiful hobby!
Just wonderful! Thank you!
Awsome!!!!!
Amazingly put together video as always. Would also be interesting to have some culinary and medical applications videos. Cheers!
Wow. Amazing
Gorgeous video
Mesmerizing!!!
Thank you.
Bravo, precioso ❤️
Awesome
Magical, amazing nature
OH MY GOD!!! GORGEOUS 😍😍😍😍😍
Totally astonisching
Incredible! love this!
awesome
Lovely
So Beautiful
Thank you
wooooah the starfish fungi of dooooom, woooooooow :D
Simply beautiful, really beautiful. What a great film.
2:57 They're dancing together! 😂🥰
thats so dope!
Most people know nothing about the the mycorrhizal networks that spread across the forest floor that help trees and plants live. Fungi and slime molds are a kingdom of living organisms that we need to survive.
That's for the blocks that cover your "favorite."
Slime molds in time lapse looks magical
nice shoots
Nice vid.. 😉
Beutys. Beutys all around.
Wow ❤️❤️❤️
Australia sure haa some fascinating fungi.
Yes we are very lucky.
Your photography is stunning :)
I don't why but the frog at 2:33 made me laugh 😂
Very nice 👌👌👌
Beautiful video!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you.
Incredible!
its so amazing I just want to cry without knowing why
😅😅😅well information good show 😅
2:59 looks like they are dancing together ❤
That's what I thought 😂
2:31 im sorry but i can't help laughing at the 1 frame frog.
Dat Marasamius dance tho 😮❤
I think it would be interesting if you would post the amount of time that has elapsed, expressed as a ratio perhaps? Are all of these time elapsed at the same speed? Thank you for posting these! Your work is wonderful.
4th of July fungi show
WOW
Absolutely stunning!! but there is a part of me that wish it went just a few seconds slower! So I can take it all in and admire a bit more of the grow & change. But that could just be me
Ah that is a beautiful comment. The broadcasters other than BBC play them about twice this speed - so yours is an interesting comment. There will be an iMax documentary coming out next year "Magical Forest - the secret world of fungi" featuring many more and new ones of Stephen's time-lapses - a big screen immersive experience - maybe keep an eye out for that if you have an iMax screen in a museum or city you visit.
@@PlanetFungi Oooohh that could be cool!
I just set my playback speed for 0.75 and watched it again. I caught so much more detail that I missed the first time - like surface texture! Beautiful.
I will have an eye out for that will look into the IMAX screen playing. The BBC do have it fast which is fun to watch but slower would be great & thank you for the complement I really didn't want to offend as this work truly is amazing!
Mind blown. sep8_6 No, no, I mean legit blown. I’m calling it the Wait For It fungi from now on. 🤯 I can see why the Ghost shroom is popular, it’s a humble brag with cred. The delicate parasols? Somebody at Disney saw those long ago and they’ve been regulars ever since. Big thanks, really beautiful.
Thank you for your really positive message. Great to hear your thoughts and reaction. We have another video on this TH-cam channel about your "wait for it" fungus called "how to time-lapse a starfish fungus - there are heaps of these in that and a fascinating history. And if you'd like to see more time-lapses Catherine edited heaps of them into our documentary on a fungi safari in north east India - www.planetfungi.movie Thanks so much for your support.
@@PlanetFungi Bravo, I'll stroll on over and look around. The India trip looks spellbinding. Paz.
Oh nature you are fungi beautiful 😍
Wow
MASTERPIECE.
Thanks so much.
Fungi are the most alien and fascinating creatures, not plant or animal, but a little bit of both...
Or maybe something in between.
More like animal than plant but so vital to the big story of symbiosis on the planet.
I would love a version with different music
..and for the finale, we'll cover up one that we really think is great...nyah nyah nyaaaaahhhh!!!
Beautiful plants
From the thumbnail, I first thought this was a Fallout New Vegas mod...
Came here because I knew the Windows 11 logo looked very familiar. I double checked the time and they started working on the logo after Fantastic Fungi came out
the time-lapse of slime mould at 02:27 is from what documentary?
These are all time-lapses created by Stephen Axford and Catherine Marciniak of Planet Fungi (this channel). All the time-lapses in the video we licensed to the documentary Fantastic Fungi and the one you have asked about I think May have also been licensed to Nat Geo’s Hostile Planet.
Hallo Stephen. Noch nie so gesehen, Pilze imZeitraffer! wie stelle ich mir das im Wald vor? wie lange dauert diese Verwandlung? Wie macht man das in der Natur solange mit Licht ? Fragen bleiben. Solche Pilze habe ich hier in Germany noch nie gesehen.
Hallo Winifred. Die Zeitrafferaufnahmen entstehen meist nicht im Wald, sondern in einem Studio, das wir in einem Schiffscontainer erstellt haben. Der beste Weg, dies in Aktion zu sehen, ist in unserem neuen Dokumentarfilm „Follow the Rain“, der im März zum ersten Mal gezeigt wird und im Jahr 2024 weltweit ausgestrahlt wird. Der beste Weg, um auf dem Laufenden zu bleiben und zu wissen, wann es einen gibt Screening in Ihrer Nähe bedeutet, unseren Newsletter zu abonnieren: www.planetfungi.movie/follow-us. Vielen Dank für Ihr Interesse und Ihre Unterstützung, Catherine.
I wish I could be a mushroom
Astounding. I'd love to see a making of. I don't understand how they do this in a studio.
Most of the fungus we all time-lapse are saprobes - meaning they grow on a substrate. That substrate - wood or mulch can be re-located to a studio - in our case half a shipping container where you can keep the light and temperature constant. You get a glimpse of it in our free video on this TH-cam channel - How to time-lapse a starfish fungus. I hope you enjoy.
Is there a known evolutionary benefit for bio-luminescent mushrooms?
For most species it is observed that bioluminescent fungi attract the night insects, slugs and snails who after contact then go on to spread the spores.
❤
Mushroom are so beutifull
WOW !!! Would totally love to see that ( Wave ) that comes in on the Auricularia sp. in Slow motion ... whats going on there? It was like the Fungus issuing the 'time to finish' command, like some sort of fungi thought process caught in action... Totally amazing Vid 100% inspirational ...
What is that mushroom at 2:01 that opens up and looks like a flowers with lobster claw -like end that are pink? Is it edible even?
The mushroom is Aseroe rubra or starfish fungus. It is a stinkhorn. This species is not regarded as edible by humans, but it is eaten by many forests creatures, and plays an important role in decomposing leaf and wood matter on the forest floor, creating nutrient rich soil for the plants. There are some stinkhorns, usually the phalus types that are eaten by some humans as they are regarded as a aphrodisiac. I’ve tried one of them and found it very bland in taste so don’t recommend it.
Thank you very much! Never seen anything like it. Helps to decompose, and make the soil rich. Serves a good purpose!@@PlanetFungi
This is so beautiful & awesome! Except that one that bursts open & looks like a hideous alien being born. 🤢 Just amazing!
AMEN
Oh shit my 🦆s shock of fact mold and froggers
Shame that the end is blocked by stuff.
2:32 frog jumpscare
Guau es hongo azul
👍
Hey man can I post this on instagram ? I'll make sure give credits
Hi there we are happy for you to share it from our instagram post - then attribution will be on it and it will link back to our insta page. Here is the URL on insta instagram.com/tv/CTVmEgUjG8A/
Do the spiders like the fungi, or do they both simply like the same environments?
They just like the damp log, although we have seen a harvestman (who looks like a spider but isn't) eating a small luminous mushroom in India. So maybe-we know so little about how organisms interact with fungi. Time lapses provide a rare window into seeing these.
The naming of the blue mushroom at 1:00 is incorrect, I believe. I think it is supposed to be " Leratiomyces atrovirens" not "Coprinopsis Atrovirens"
It was thought to be a Leratiomyces species about four years ago but over the past couple of years it has been DNA tested and a paper is being published soon - it has been identified as a Coprinopsis species and will be called Coprinopsis atrovirens. All the photos you have seen of the Australian variety were taken by Stephen Axford of Planet Fungi and we have been keeping a close eye on the research that has been done on the specimens we have collected - so we are very confident this new name is correct.
@@PlanetFungi Ah, I just couldn't find any record of such a species by that name is why.
@@rdizzy1 Yes that is a stay tuned. When the paper comes out we will celebrate with a new video about its discovery and the how tricky it was to name it.
@@PlanetFungi Nice, good for you guys then.
Go to 2:33 for froggy 🐸 (he looks like Keroro Gunso)
