This series is so freaking good 😍😍 Shatner could make anything entertaining but the marriage between content and host is perfection
A few years ago, I visited a local nutrition store and noticed Mr. Shatner there. He was looking at some products, when I calmly approached him. He looked at me as I then proceeded to say in a calm and low voice. "Mr. Shatner, if it wasn't for you...." He extended his hand and shook mine, as he said, "Thank you." No show or convention appearance. It was a moment I'll never forget, as I got to meet him briefly. Weird or what?
Do you mean he didn’t let you finish or you’re just not including what was said here for brevity sake?
@@denisemay6807 No. He didn't cut me off. When I said, "If it wasn't for you..." it was meant to and spoken in a tone to show how much he meant to me. As a writer and have been on stage and t.v. as well, you never know whose lives you touch.
He came up to me during his horse auction...and expressed how devastated he was that no one was buying...
It was a fundraiser for children.
I felt greedy asking for his autograph on the beautiful program, which I later gave to a friend's little girl. They had a horse ranch.
What a beautiful man.
Bro... you TOTALLY NAILED your opening line when you met him! 👍😎
Awesome 👌
I have two Icons in my life that I have the utmost respect.David Attenborough and William Shatner. They understand nature and the beauty of this planet and how fragile it is and as the superior species of this Earth we have to learn to get on with each other and treat our animals with respect this is their planet too. Love the programme and William's sense of humour.xx
Wow, you're comparing William Shatner to David Attenborough. Amazing.
I love your comment and agree with you 100% everything you said so true!!
Attenborough has disgraced himself by driving sealions off a clifftop to their death below and then pretending that global warming caused it, POS.
Ah! I remember Paul the Octopus. He made me $1000 from following his prediction during the world cup final. I bet on 🇪🇸 and people thought I was crazy. RIP Paul. Thanks for everything.
If you're ever in his town, you'd better go lay some flowers by his urn... he at least paid for it! LOL
@@KennyMcCormick99 will definitely do it!
Good 👍🏻 for you!!!
LOL I caught that octopi mistake too. I was like "Octopusses?"
Animals have been pulling off Miracles since the dawn of time. There's really nothing they can't do. I've witnessed some with my own eyes, mostly with cats. Skeptics will NEVER convince me otherwise.
That’s because they are not miracles. It looks like miracles to us because we try to think the heck out of everything. Animals don’t have that problem. They know their connection to everything.
I was in Europe when this show aired ... now in 2021 , I get to enjoy it on RUclips on my telephone while I live in South East Valley, Arizona !
How cool is that ? !
Dogs do feel shame and embarrassment, and most of the other emotions that we feel.
I've seen the shame in my dog's eyes when I caught him snatching a piece of chicken off my plate😂
Psycologists are quack doctors and don't even realise it. The whole premis is unscientific.
It was scientifically proven in the 70's that even plants understand you and even have feelings. One test during the 70's involved all the plants in a greenhouse to be hooked up to bio-feedback machines to measure their emotions and anxiety as a man with shears started chopping up a plant. Well it worked and all the plants showed stress with the machines ringing in overdrive. For the second part of the test the man with the shears was to visit a different greenhouse located on the other side of the planet. As soon as he entered this second greenhouse all the plants exhibited the same reactions as the first greenhouse. It was from here that scientists discovered that plants have a global communication network maybe using some sort of electromagnetic grid field. So remember if you harm just one animal/plant then more than likely all the rest of that species will have this knowledge.
William Shatner your the only person who can have me laughing at random just thinking about something you've said or done. Thank you for brightening up my day :)
Me too 🤣
90 yrs old in 2- days
Sooo... truuueee....
Ha! I'm glad I am not the only one. William does the same to me. It can be the most common, mundane word or statement but the way he says it is so funny and classic. If you have not watched Boston Legal I highly recommend it. The entire show is great but Bill has the most classic scenes ever. I have never, ever laughed so hard in my life. Classic. What a one-of-a-kind individual.
@@Angel_1983 weird or what?😆🤡
i had a dog that came 50miles to find me
That's love!😊♥️
Are you joking or is that a true story
Same here.
Why would you leave your dog that far away?!
I'm with the guy who said we really cannot say what or what not an animal feels.
Dogs can see spirits too
Gotta love William Shatner ! ❤
I had a dog called Ben a German Shepard that traveled 45.81 miles back to its original owner my grandmother
Shepherd.
I had moved, so I kept my cat in the 🏠 for a few days, let him out. He ran in the woods, never c ame back. 6 mo. Later came walking down the road. It was my cat.
was he carrying a guitar?
My family was renting a house and when our lease was up we moved to another house that was just down the street that just happened to go up for rent around the time we were moving, long story short our cat made his way back there and found him chillen in the front yard one day 🤣🤣🤣🥰
Memories are reliable when a person recalls intense emotional experiences. In fact, memories can surface in great detail in flashbacks. Memories are triggered by sensory experience too. Music, smell, sight, and taste. Our brains store everything that has happened in our lives but we need triggers to unlock the past This process is totally unconscious. So how can anyone fill in the gaps when memories surface independently to thought?
And yes I have owned cats that have turned up outside the house, a house they have never lived in or visited. ... Our farm cats have done just that after we moved house. The land they were placed on was a few miles away from the house yet my mother's pet greeted her at the front door and walked in to sit with the dogs and other pets as if she had never been absent. She was semi-feral but very tame. In our previous village, She could disappear for months and then one day return with feral kittens. This time She came to us for a different reason. She was dying. Two weeks later She passed away in a box in our kitchen.
The problem with science proving things is that it is limited to whoever does the study, PHD etc. and let us not forget that outcomes are based on who funds the research. This is why 'facts' shift. There are many things we all see and know about life but science takes ages to prove it however, most of the time things happen in real-time and not in a lab. Thus real interaction between humans and animals can never be replicated or proven .. Therefore, science is not advanced enough presently to understand it.
There are a number of cats and dogs that have traveled great distances to be with their humans or return to familiar territory. We can't imagine how they do it, but that doesn't mean it's not possible. And I don't believe people could misidentify their beloved cats so easily.
My x husband dumped my Cat up in the mountains, never was there before. Three days later she was outside my kitchen window meowing because I still had her babies. I was in a new apt in national city, CA. We had lived in Long Beach. Three different strange places. And what about Lassie come home with Elizabeth Taylor? High wash. Animals are psychic plane and simple. I have dozens of videos of them watching Orbs flying around.
I remember when Serbia played against Germany at the World Cup 2010. We all said there's no chance of winning, but Paul the octopus got it right...
I find it weird that he predicted 8 games. (Oct)
Shatner is absolutely the best!
What a gorgeous horse! 🐎
Marilyn : Meh ... it's a high headed arab .... but Bill does a great job with it .
Too bad he's not on one of his Reiners .
It's a weird world and I love it.. Most memorable line.
Cats have a psychic ability that we will discover when we grow up
NO NO NO. IM A CAT LOVER FROME 6 YRS OLD. YOU KNOW YOUR CAT.
Ya well I seen me a chicken play tic tac toe ,walk a tightrope ,and play piano. And I seen a pigeon drive a missle and deliver messages across great distance . Animals are smarter than most people think . I am still teaching my 9 year old dog new things I never thought it could do
They should put a rail fence on the bridge so they can't jump off. Especially after that many have jumped
dogs are much safer at home, so much can go wrong once theyre taken somewhere unfamiliar and if other dogs have been there, germs can get left behind that will make the dogs ill.
You would THINK!
I noticed nobody pointed out that octopuses have 8 to 9 brains, might this not have something to do with it???
As a kid I saw a movie called homeward bound. The pets traveled to find their owners. The cat sensed where to go, the dogs smelled and tracked them.
I loved that movie !!!
I once came across an octopus right near shore at a non-public beach access in the Caribbean. The instant it saw me, it emerged from a rock, swam right up to me, turned so its eyes were on me, became every color of the rainbow, and then swam off to sea. I completely understood everything that octopus communicated to me that day.
I absolutely love this show thank you for sharing and have a blessed day everyone that's reading this
I had a cat find me after I had moved, but it was only about 7 miles away. I was very close to this cat.
That's still pretty remarkable~!
Would Dr. Pike not recognize a friend, or his child even if he hadn't seen them for a year? I recognize animals that I haven't seen in years. If you have horses or cattle, even if they are the same color, you can tell each one apart from the others.
screw that dude
My childhood neighbors had about 100 sheep. They all looked exactly the same, but even the kids could tell them all apart. They knew which sheep was which and thought I was weird for not being able to tell them apart and remember their names.
Always leave it to PhD to explain what they don’t know!
THE CAT STORY IS THE BEST.
Because someone who knew the folks who moved, put the cat in their car and drove it to their farm and let it out at the driveway. Not weird. Is what.
Holy sh*t! Bill Shatner, on a horse, talking about things we don't understand? Count me in :D :D
Weird or what?!!!?
Definitely! I've always kept an open mind about things that can't be explained, because, well, they can't be explained :D I had no idea this show even existed. I enjoyed the episode though. It was objective. Leaving us, the viewer to make our own guesses.
William Shatner enjoys riding horses 🐎 , what's Weird about that ?
Sugar definitely traveled the 2k to her family, these drs and PhDs are party poopers
Edit: also, I bet they don't have a pet cat either
Octopuses are incredibly intelligent intelligent. That octopus blew everyone away with his accuracy. Good for him! He deserved those treats!
Several years ago I was building a walkway in my front yard when my service dog started to growl at something .
When I turned around and came face to face with my neighbor's 300+ cow .
She wasn't there to hurt me , she just wanted someone's company .
The neighbors left to go get some feed and hay so I just let her stay with me for the time .
She was and still very gentle so she just laid down and watched me lay the planking for my walkway .
When they finally came back I saw them drive by the hit the breaks and backed up and pulled over .
The wife and daughter asked me " What are you doing with my cow ? "
My reply was " Babbysiting $ 35 dollars a pound "
Nice come back!
i had a neighbour from my old house ring my mum because our cat turned up 9 months later after traverling miles from up pyes pa to windermare
Apparently, dr pike hasn’t seen The Incredible Journey….
Many animals have traveled thousands of miles to reunite with their families…
I cracked up so hard when shantner sped out of the driveway n his dogs travel case fell out!!😅
A wonderful movie of regular diver, visiting.a female Octopus for one year, proves adapting intelligence, humour, emotion and love in the ocean that is so much more than our world of love.
Have seen that movie/ doco. It was a luvly story. Made me think of it when watching "paul".
"my teacher, the octopus" It's an excellent documentary.👍
--Shannon Aguilar
My Octopus Teacher is the name.
I wish they would just tear down that Damn Bridge .
I don't care about it being historical or not .
This is the age of cancel culture 🤣
I just love this guy
There are many cat stories like this all over the world. Dr. Bingaman unfortunately is not tuned in.
I always fast forward past those simple minded debunkers. Why have someone share their opinions on a topic they havent fully researched?
A friend's cat came home from miles after they dropped it off. They decided to keep it after that happened.
people like that wouldnt be any friends of mine. Most of my pets came from pos people dropping them off cause they were unwanted. I truly think the penalty for dumping an animal should be capital punishment.
Good and never should have dropped it off in the first place
My cat comes to find me anywhere I am at home. Just to show me that the squirrel has arrived for breakfast. She does this nearly every day.
WOW
AMAZING
It took the professor an equation to figure out that it’s a 50% chance to pick the correct box.
That cat is interesting I wish my cat was like that. The only intelligent thing my cat do is coming home at dinner just for Tuna and he goes out again.
New subscriber!! Love all your videos!!
I love ❤️ it to William
People should put their dogs on the lead when they go over the bridge.
I have two jack dogs..very intelligent.
If I’m cuddling the male dog on my lap,the female will do a alert bark as if there’s someone at the door,the male jumps down to investigate..she jumps up and takes his place .
There’s no one at the door ,she plans it to con him ,and he falls for it every time .
Jealousy is her strategy.
Lol..pick the winning lottery numbers.
Normally , a hound that is aggressive towards a human , huntsman or horse is culled .
I indeed CAN believe this story ...but Border Collies , like the one shown that was killed , wouldn't normally do such a thing . They are far , far too intelligent .
But I'll keep my best friend leashed if we go over that bridge . Thanks for the warning !
Dr. Pike needs to activate the right side of his brain.
How can I meet William Shatner at least once in my life would be my mother's dream to
William Shatner could make a grocery list sound mysterious and exciting.
"And then there's the sheep, he's just stupid" lol
I guess he never saw the movie "Babe"
I love Sugar's story 🧡🧡🧡
Cats RULE.😻
Were I live the stray cats learned how to do home invasions now I have 5 of them
Overtoun Bridge, nr Milton, West Dunbartonshire, Scotland - Decided to look into this a little bit more.
Seems that in addition to the 50 dogs that have jumped to their deaths, over 600 more have jumped and managed to survive.
It is 'alleged' (I repeat 'alleged') that in at least one instance, a dog that threw itself off the bridge and survived, made its way back up onto the bridge and jumped again, dying on the second attempt. I have not found any confirmation of this story. Besides, I find it impossible to believe that the owner of a no doubt injured dog would stand by and allow this to happen!
It is still strongly believed that mink is the reason for this problem. Considering mink was introduced for large-scale farming in the 1950's in the UK - at the same time this dog problem started - it's not beyond belief that some escaped (as they do) into the wild and settled here. The accidental mink escapes were then aggravated by deliberate releases conducted by animal activists - who failed to consider the consequences of their actions upon populations of natural British fauna. (David Bailey did much more to discredit the wearing of animal fur than activists did. Anyone watch that cinema ad? Ughhhhh!)
There is truth in the test to see if dogs respond more enthusiastically to the smell of mink - apparently, 7 out of 10 dogs prefer it to any other brand.
So what gets me is - as mink are an invasive species responsible for killing a lot of native British fish, birds and other animals, why is it taking so long to eliminate mink from the area and stopping this tragic problem from continuing? It certainly isn't impossible to cull mink to extinction, as this animal has been successfully expelled from my locality.
I could find no reference whatsoever to the paranormal story detailing a man falling to his death from a horse.
Instead, I found reference to a completely different ghost called 'The White Lady of Overtoun,' a grieving widow who supposedly walks the bridge and is now blamed for stirring the dogs into a death frenzy - though why she should have a particular hate for them isn't mentioned, nor is it explained why she should start doing this from the 1950's and not before.
There are a few reports of 'ghost children' occasionally touching people's legs. Sounds more likely that flapping coats and bags are being misinterpreted by those wide open to suggestion.
Furthermore, in 1994, a paranoid schizophrenic father (believing himself to be the anti-christ) threw his 2 week old son off the bridge - because he believed him to be Satan, all due to a birthmark on the baby.
I know...
What's worse is, the child's poor mother was there, the horrified witness to the murder of her own newborn son.
The father chose the location for the murder because there's supposed to be some link between this area and Druids (although, the bridge evidently wasn't built by Druids and the fact is 'we' don't know all the places where Druids conducted rituals. Half of Britain has probably seen Druidic and Pagan rituals over the many centuries they were practised).
The father then tried to commit suicide, failed, repeatedly, and was put into a mental hospital. It's said he has since been released.
Animals are full of surprises and I have been taken care of my family's cat because they moved and can't have him right now I've known the cat since he was born lol any way I have forgot how smart cats are everyday I watch him he makes me laugh and what he does I can't let him out here because of the cars he is 9 yrs now but he is a perfect kitty ❤❤
Something that the dogs heard or felt that might have prompted a protective instinct to protect. Leaping first out of love for the owner.
The man that said we should never underestimate the skills of animals that was one of the smartest things I've heard someone say about animal behavior because we don't know and they do continue to surprise us
LMFAO!!😭 Shatner w/ the dark humor of not securing his dog to the back seat & it instead flys out the back door onto the road!!
LOL I guess the scene of another car instantly running it over was just a tad worse & decided to just cut the scene out! 😆☠️😆
Remember Milo and Otis? Proof that animals can find their way home.
Love that Paul !!!! RIP dude...🤘
I love everything William shatner! 😂❤
does makes it more interesting!
You're the best, Cap'n! :-)
About the Damnned Scottish bridge :
1- enclose it from inside so dogs can't jump over the sides.
2- have an audiologist or sound engineer scan the area for odd vibrational patterns.
I just realized - Dogs like to answer calls or whistles . Dogs can hesr frequencies that humans can't. They may think that they are answering someone commanding them to come to them .
They are not intentionally committing suicide.
I had stopped tge video to write my ideas. When i resumed it the psychic in a way validated my thesis🎉😊
I had a cat who traveled across town to find me! we where moving , he had never been to new house. we went back to get last load along with bringing the cat we couldnt find him .... 2months later he showed up at new house!!!!!
18:48 😆👍🏻 Fluffy loves Bill.
Excellent.
Great video 💯📸😊❤🎉
I have often noticed thatt the "expert skeptics" that try to explain away something, they often offer explanations that they cannot possibly know and which sound even more unlikely than what they are denying. Also, in this case, claiming to know what the octopus is thinking. Another expert could step forward to debunk that.
LMAO @ the angry people wanting Paul to be eatin.
I believe experts have Super EGOS
Expert is short for educated idiot
I always fast forward past those simple minded debunkers. Why have someone share their opinions on a topic they havent fully researched?
Love them! Blueblood, rh negative maybe?
We as humans also have blue blood. It only turns red when oxposed to oxygen.
Yes it’s true cats can find their way back home. Same happened with a family cat of ours. Husband did not like this cat and took him in a box..in a truck over 10 miles away and dropped him off at a farm….sure enough a few weeks later we were eating dinner and Leo jumped up on the air conditioner outside looking at us eating dinner. It was our cat. It was dropped off miles away and showed back up. I believe that was Sugar🥰….BTW we kept Leo after that. We were so amazed
So, whomever put the muscles n the box for the octopuses was the real predictor
Shatner is a national treasure. And just the first minute in ... my yammer may return later as I watch this great show. Seen enough others to come to the conclusion that Occam's Razor is a spoilsport.
One day as I was sitting with my colleagues in a public garden, one of us tried to attract a cat which was approaching us. I personally love cats but that particular one did not attract me. When the man called the cat we all expected it to go to him but instead it went all around and sat behind me putting its back against my body.
I had a cat which disappeared and we moved a few miles up the road where we bought a home from a rental. The move was unnerving to the cat. It was not more then a couple of miles, but our cat found us. I was shocked to see she found us and was my cat and not a different cat.
Nothing worse than these close-minded scientists to halt progress. I think they are people who need certainty and anything out of the ordinary scares them, or blows their mind too much.
Beautiful stories!!!
Brilliant show....
Our house partially burnt down so now we live temperarily half a mile away. We have most of the last remaining cats living with us but some live in thenold house groundfloor and my husband goes andnfeeds them daily. One of the kits wenhave here is at times very restless but we can never let them out as its a village squarenith quite busy traffic so someti'mes my husband takes her to the house for A holiday, but she makes her way back down climbing up the canopy to turn up on the upstairs windowsill. I know its not far but she found her way.
This episode made me grab my cat and snuggle him
I love this cat. I believe he crossed the country to find his family. I don't like the fact they've abandoned him, but a good ending 🎉
18:40, fluffy wuffy 🤣wtf LoL
The only way I came across the octopus, it is in the sushi bar
William Shatner, the face of Micheal Myers...😁♡♡♡♡
Experts are always Skeptics because they want to be looked on as Gods
There are too many stories of cats _and_ dogs that have traveled 100s, even 1000s of miles to get back with their families, to say it's just mistaken identity.
the domestic cat was just a stray that looked like their cat.
Dogs communicate with tone of voice and with how they posture their body, ears,head, eyes,and tail. I eat, sleep,play, fight, and live with dogs for over 50 years, you can learn, if you pay attention.
They fixed the games and used the Octopus as a cover and made fortunes.
I would suggest looking in to the weather patterns on the days the dogs have jumped. It could be that there is a sound we can't hear that dogs can coming from the bridge. The weather conditions and wind could cause a very low hum or a high pitched whistle that we can't hear drawing the dogs over the edge of the bridge.
your program full of surprises
We had a dog we had to let go to a farm, she was 38 miles from our new home, she disapered after a few weeks,. the farmer phoned us and gave us the sad story. Two weeks later in the early hours, she turned up on our new house door step at 1.00am barking, this is a totally true story, she lived 19 years. Judy the amazing jack Russell !
Years ago when I was probably like 14 I had seen a dog being suicidal she was a Chihuahua Pug mix and I watched her running in and out of traffic she did this like six times so I went down grabbed her ass brought her home she ended up being the happiest dog you ever seen after that I know she was depressed when I got her but I had made her not depressed no more but her old owners who were not taking good care of her had found out that I had her and they stole her right out of the yard when they didn't even take care of her good in the first place the next thing you know she end up running away from them again and they never knew where she went after that and I took care of that dog for about two years before they ever even known that I had her
It just chose a box. Simple and straight. Now we got some octopuses psychiatrists actually discussing why it picked that box. This is hilarious lmao!!!!
Arsenal needs to buy an octopus
