Gotta be AI. Yhe blob fish only looks like that when its brought to the surface and they're dead by the time they look like that. Expanding way past its natural size because the water pressure isn't holding it in its normal form. The fact that one was still lookiing like that but swimming under water makes me believe this is AI. Still its a pretty good documentary considering.
Crazy thing is, deep-sea science has already moved on since this video. In just the last couple of years we’vge found 300-year-old black coral forests, a bunch of totally new monster’ species ( including a carnivorous sponge nicknamed the deah ball), and entire communities living miles down on hydrotdhermal vents.the deeper we go, the weirder it actually get
It is to Sleep, indeed.
Even with different opinions, this documentary was fascinating and beautifully made. Thank you for the atmosphere, the pacing, and the sense of wonder you created. Grateful to discover this channel and to share this space with everyone here.
What a Great video
AI slop
This is an absolute masterpiece of atmospheric storytelling! 🌊 The way you’ve woven the haunting mystery of the deep sea with such poetic narration is honestly spellbinding. As a fellow creator in the wildlife space, I’m genuinely blown away by how you made the 'Blue Marble' feel so alien yet so connected to us. That segment on the 'Jacuzzi of Despair' was particularly chilling and beautifully shot. Your channel is a hidden gem for anyone who loves high-quality documentaries. Keep up this incredible work—the community needs more content this immersive! 👏✨
This was both eerie and relaxing at the same time. The way deep sea life adapts to darkness and pressure is incredible, and the pacing made it perfect for falling asleep.
Blinking fish eyes is very disturbing…
One of best documentary
INFORMATIVE DOCUMENTARY love it
I really hope the lovely whale finds another...
Terrific thank you.
NYC 9:40pm drifting to sleep, I hope
14:02 Did that fish just blink?
Evolution my A** Created rather
Depressing take on the beautiful ..no thanks!
Both the visuals and narration of this video are top-tier, second to none.
That's a fascinating topic! The way life adapts to such extreme, dark, and high-pressure environments is truly mind-blowing. It's incredible to think about what other undiscovered creatures might be lurking in the deepest parts of our oceans.
Enjoyed it really much! Never thought AI could wright a script for such an amazing and immersive story!)
