Thank you so much!!!! :) It’s just me by the way - writing editing and narrating - but it wouldn’t be possible without me being able to source this incredible footage from marine exploration organisations like MBARI and EVNautilus
Wow, it's pretty impressive that you're basically doing these on your own. I love the way you narrate these. Your voice and pacing is perfect. There's honestly nothing I don't like about your content. Only thing is I wish there was more!
@@NaturalWorldFacts I agree with Marcus, keep up the good work it’s very informative to us that’s curious about the world we live in outside our fabricated society
marine snow also includes fecal matter, sand, soot, and other inorganic dust. The decaying material is referred to as “marine snow” because it looks a little bit like white fluffy bits. The “snowflakes” grow as they fall, some reaching several centimeters in diameter.
Polychaetes are one of very few sea creatures whose scariest species is actually somewhat close to the surface. Bobbit worms scare me on a very primordial level.
This channel is gonna blow up I can feel it :D And it's really cool how there's a lot of continuity with your recent vids, like you're making so many links between different topics, from whale fall communities to bioluminescence and symbiosis. It's all connected into one beautiful network. Great video as usual, always covering fascinating topics.. Polychaetes are all pretty sweet, especially the eunicid "bobbit worms". Those ones are absolutely legendary! Sometimes in the Danish chalk we actually find fossilised burrows of bobbit worms, filled with bits of regurgitated fish from their most recent meal! I also recently donated a fossilised bobbit burrow to a natural history museum in Denmark :) Love how widespread bioluminescence is among the polychaetes, it's almost like they 'trademarked' this adaptation!
Thank you so much Christian!! It’s made my day to hear you’re enjoying the videos. My favourite part of script-writing and researching is coming across these links to topics I’ve covered before. It really does bring everything together and put it in the wider perspective of the deep sea ecosystem, which just gets me so excited! I was going to include the bobbit worm, but I don’t know why I didn’t. They’re incredible, and I had never realised they were so long as most footage just shows the head poking out. I reckon I’ll give them a solo video at some point, and I will for certain be coming to you to learn about their evolutionary history ;) those fossils sound remarkable. How ancient are bobbit worms?
@@NaturalWorldFacts Man, hearing about all the research you do for these videos gets me really hyped for your next uploads :D Seriously, you're doing great work bro! A bobbit worm video would be perfect, those animals are legendary. Snapping up fish in a fraction of a second, they're basically the "snakes" of the deep-sea! The oldest bobbit is about 400million years old, and it would have reached at least a good metre in length! Here's the paper describing it :) www.nature.com/articles/srep43061 This one had those fearsome, serrated jaws, just like the bobbit worms you see today.
Thank you so so much for the article and the inspiration!! Hearing you’re so excited about these topics helps get me excited to work on them. I always look forward to your feedback and the extra information you give me, and I absolutely cannot wait to hear what you think of the upcoming videos!! 400 million years old! That’s just incredible. Have they changed much in all this time? Or are they just perfectly adapted? (I wouldn’t be surprised. They’ve hit the evolutionary nail on the head).
If this was what school was, I would have actually been enthusiastic about it. I've always been addicted to knowledge and new information, and school has given me very very little actually new or useful or fascinating knowledge. I'm confident that if I were left to my own devices with youtube and netflix, I would have learned way more about my areas of interest than I was able to. I never had enough free time to focus on what I really wanted to learn about.
I love this channel. It reminds me of the actual educational nature shows that USED to be on animal planet, discovery and Nat geo. I have been binge watching every deep sea video you have, some, while I'm out on the ocean in my kayak dropping a line and waiting for something to bite
this is some professional done stuff! this is what like you'd expect from NatGeo or some studio like that, not some independent channel! incredible incredible work!
I love these videos, not only do they make me learn things i like that I didn’t know about and that most of this is just to show how amazing the oceans are, plus i love the deep sea and ocean so this is perfect
When ur a wannabee biology student I super like this channel. I never got the chance to take the course, but I like all flora and fauna, even when I was a child. Im fascinated by other creatures. But I ended up taking Psychology 💀❤️
It’s fascinating stuff for sure!! I almost applied for an overall Zoology course but ended up choosing Marine Biology at the last minute - I start this September 😬 How was Psychology?
This was great narration at its best and so beautiful at 4k, thanks! The aliens that we are searching for so desperately are already here and we are not appreciating this fact. They have so much to teach us IF we can just learn to listen. Many of them are almost superheroes, which we happen to love if they are human. Keep this up!
At 2:11 it scared me so bad because in the corner I thought I saw human skeleton remains or something, with white teeth, eye sockets and brown arms! Cool video too
So many neat worms, I still very much would like to know some of the anatomy of the giant tube worms, because it can be hard to remember that they are infact worms they are just so strange looking.
They really are neat! I touch on the tube worm’s anatomy a little bit in the Deep Sea Symbiosis video, but I’m considering dedicating an entire vid to them with greater detail as they are just so incredible!!
I'm on my 6th video! Can't get enough! You give such intriguing and unheard of facts that explain alot of wonder in the world but also gives equally as much more wonder out.
OK Though now I have to say it. You have the best channel and delivery and beautiful creatures, but misidentify them a lot. 5:33 is clearly a sea star (echinoderm) and not a polychete.
Leo, if you had to pick one part of the ocean as a favorite, I mean deep, open, coastal, what would it be? Edit: I should have read the "about" section on your page. I also have a fascination with the deep so I love how much attention you give it.
Oh it has to be the deep sea! There’s something so alluring about the mysteries concealed within a place so dark and inaccessible. It’s the last true frontier of exploration on Earth, and there’s just so much left to discover. For me, it evokes a distinct sense of wonder mingled with fear that captivates me; the melancholic beauty of whale-falls and their carrion communities, the vibrant reds of tube-worms blooming from the deathly grey rock of hydrothermal vents, and the surreal landscapes of deepwater brine pools punctuated with the preserved remains of unfortunate crabs. It truly is another world. An unfamiliar landscape, home to a collection of curiosities unlike anything else on Earth. How can I not fall in love with a place so utterly bizarre? Edit: I forgot to ask- what about you?
@@NaturalWorldFacts same here. I dont think I could have said better. We know more about our moons surface. We've explored I believe less than 2.0 percent and most of it has been in the last 30 years. Every time they explore they discover something new.

In a earlier comment I said your the modern day Attenborough and your comment just now totaly solidified it. The way you just described the deep was beautiful. You've got a talent my dude.

@@sarab3888 I looked them up and they are indeed beautiful. Sadly I live at the North Sea and we don’t have these beautiful creatures in our waters. Much to cold . When we can again visit indoor events like an aquarium I will sure look out for them. Oh, I almost forgot. I did see a real sea cucumber, a purple one, when I was visiting Gran Canaria. Strange creatures. Someone was poking it with a stick and it eviscerated itself… It is a way of protecting itself a guy told me. Indeed the cucumber was creeping away between the stones afterwards. The woman that was poking it was flabbergasted.
I was eating breakfast when I found this video reccomended... I didn't watch it until after I had finished because I worried that writing masses of worms knotting and unknotting in viscous muccus would ruin my appetite. I'm relieved to see that these creatures were more interesting than stomach-churning and many of them were actually quite beautiful.
Thanks so much :) I try to post a variety of different series to keep things interesting, so it’s great to hear you enjoy this as well as the other content. I sometimes worry not all viewers will connect with certain videos, but personally I find all nature truly beautiful. You have a lovely day/evening!
Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful! Little by little, you are shaping the understanding of the people! When I think that entire species of polychaete worm live their whole lives on whale bones, I am in awe. It's fascinating. I'm so glad I could inspire this knowledge you dropped on me, and as always, it is well done, Leo!
Thanks so much for sending that deep sea worms vid on hangouts- it really did inspire me to create this, I’m in awe of osedax worms too!! Everything about the depths, from the eery to the otherworldly, it’s all beautiful.
"Bobbit Worm, however, is on another level entirely. Bobbit Worm don't need no tube. Bobbit Worm goes wherever Bobbit Worm damn-well pleases." -Zefrank Sorry, all this talk of polychaetes, I just couldn't help myself
I truly love your videos so much! I make creepy alien like ceramics that are also very inspired by deep sea creatures. And my family and I are all divers so even more sea animals to see!🤿🎉🐠And you’re videos inspire me so much and we learn more about these creatures and the deep sea. Its amazing!🙏✨🌟 keep up the good work!🌟
Great suggestion! I’m in the process of researching for one, but struggling to find footage or pictures to supplement it. I’ll try and come up with an alternative way of presenting the info though as it really is an awesome creature.
It really adds to their mystery I think - their elusiveness, leaving their scale and behaviour up to the imagination. It’s awesome that we know so little about a creature so huge!! Nonetheless, I’ll see what I can do regarding a video ;)
You could probably just use art pieces of it and if they don't have any online maybe use the art pieces of the kraken which is based on the colossal squid
Good point! And there’s a huge specimen at the Natural History Museum here in London down in the vaults which I’ve been taken to! I have a few connections and could possibly get access to it for a video, but that might have to wait until after this lockdown.

So show Me what those other than Him have created. Rather, the wrongdoers are in clear error." (QS. Luqman 31: Verse 11)
Amazing work! The only thing I have to say is that the background music is a touch bit to loud. It makes it hard to focus on what you are saying at some points.
5:31 that is not a polychæte, but instead an enteropneust, a deuterostome related very closely to echinoderms. still a very fascinating video, though! very informative!
Thanks for pointing that out, that’s actually very interesting and it makes sense now you mention it - acorn worms definitely don’t fit the ‘many bristles’ description of polychaetes. In all honesty I know very little about deuterostomes, but I’ll be reading up on them for sure thanks to you! Thanks again :) 🪱
I promise I mean no offense or sharp critique, my friend. There’s a reason why that referenced content has tens of millions of views and is well loved by a community of viewers. Your incredibly valuable information was clearly presented and well written. I was just entertained by the dramatic and violent oceanic volcanic vents contrasted by such calm, slow and indifferent vocal performance. I’m not saying that was a bad thing or took away from my viewing experience much if at all. I’m an excitable individual so I would be more like Steve Irwin if this was my role to play. Getting this vital information and the beauty that must be preserved to more eyes and hearts is so valuable and noble. For that I appreciate you greatly. I only intended to offer constructive criticism so that this vital conservation effort can be best received and shared. I hope your message spreads and that we can all win this fight together. Godspeed.
It’s really quite alright, your initial comment made me both chuckle and smile so thank you very much for that! And thank you for the lovely words of support, I love making these videos and hearing that you enjoy them really does make it all feel very worthwhile. Also, it’s always brilliant to meet a fellow lover of dark internet cartoons haha! Now, I’m gonna go make a video and touch some rusty spoons.
@@NaturalWorldFacts Thank you for understanding. The world is an endlessly amazing ball of energy. That we’ve just finally begun to explore it yet have the capacity to destroy it is a cosmic irony. Never give up the fight to give a voice to the voiceless inhabitants we share it with. What you’re doing is very important.
Have they tested to see if any creatures see in UV light or any other form of vision to help them see or have certain things stand out. Like I wonder if you took a black light across the chimney vents if things would glow at all??
You guys have the BEST marine documentaries on TH-cam, hands down.
Thank you so much!!!! :)
It’s just me by the way - writing editing and narrating - but it wouldn’t be possible without me being able to source this incredible footage from marine exploration organisations like MBARI and EVNautilus

Wow this is so interesting. Keep up the good work! Shout out from Reddit
Cheers David!! :) Thank you so much
been here before it hits a million subs.
Keeping my fingers crossed ;)
Kiss from Angola. Thanks 😘😘😘
Oh to be a worm, at the bottom of the sea.
Just doing worm stuff
god. the youtube algorithm is really blessing me with this video
This guy can be doing a video on the lions of the Sahara and still find a way to mention whale bones of the deep ocean
😂😂😂
5:31 that is not a polychæte, but instead an enteropneust, a deuterostome related very closely to echinoderms. still a very fascinating video, though! very informative!
Thanks for pointing that out, that’s actually very interesting and it makes sense now you mention it - acorn worms definitely don’t fit the ‘many bristles’ description of polychaetes. In all honesty I know very little about deuterostomes, but I’ll be reading up on them for sure thanks to you! Thanks again :) 🪱
@@NaturalWorldFacts mmhm! no problem!
5:33
That brittle star is a spy!
Love the music 🎶
At 2:13 that pillar at the top left kinda looks like it has a face
The music in these reminds me of that family guy cut seen lampooning the godfathers distractingly loud “background” music 😂
That explains deep sea gigantism (aot reference)
This narrator sounds a bit like salad fingers. Loved this documentary though! Keep up the great work!
You get a heart. I would be offended but I love David Firth 😂😂
I promise I mean no offense or sharp critique, my friend. There’s a reason why that referenced content has tens of millions of views and is well loved by a community of viewers. Your incredibly valuable information was clearly presented and well written. I was just entertained by the dramatic and violent oceanic volcanic vents contrasted by such calm, slow and indifferent vocal performance. I’m not saying that was a bad thing or took away from my viewing experience much if at all. I’m an excitable individual so I would be more like Steve Irwin if this was my role to play. Getting this vital information and the beauty that must be preserved to more eyes and hearts is so valuable and noble. For that I appreciate you greatly. I only intended to offer constructive criticism so that this vital conservation effort can be best received and shared. I hope your message spreads and that we can all win this fight together. Godspeed.
It’s really quite alright, your initial comment made me both chuckle and smile so thank you very much for that! And thank you for the lovely words of support, I love making these videos and hearing that you enjoy them really does make it all feel very worthwhile. Also, it’s always brilliant to meet a fellow lover of dark internet cartoons haha! Now, I’m gonna go make a video and touch some rusty spoons.
@@NaturalWorldFacts Thank you for understanding. The world is an endlessly amazing ball of energy. That we’ve just finally begun to explore it yet have the capacity to destroy it is a cosmic irony. Never give up the fight to give a voice to the voiceless inhabitants we share it with. What you’re doing is very important.
Thank you!
Pompei worms are wild. Shouldn’t be existing lmao. Imagine the deep sea worms we’ve never known of
Have they tested to see if any creatures see in UV light or any other form of vision to help them see or have certain things stand out. Like I wonder if you took a black light across the chimney vents if things would glow at all??
My God this is like ASMR to me. (in a good way)
