We appreciate how detailed this is. The vastness of the sea is remarkable to just think about. The amount of mysteries and even possibilities it contains is endless.
Very interesting and educational. The Sargasum weed washes up on the shore here in south Florida especially during major storms. I used to collect the weed from the shore as a lad and shake out the inhabitants and take home to put in my aquarium. The diversity of creatures was incredible, from small shrimp and crustaceans and the awesome Sargasum fish to baby Barricudas and many species of small fishes. Learned some things about the Sargasum Sea I didn't know. Thanks.
One of the additional reasons for the 'calm' weather is because its located almost always under the sub tropical anti cyclone. That is the high pressure in the middle of the North Atlantic (all oceans have one, or two, if they cover both North and South hemispheres). The STAC is also what drives the gyre.
Thank you Arran for this fabulous channel. It is both educational, and especially entertaining. The school systems could absolutely do with many more of you, the graduation rate would soar. Your narration style and wonderful sense of humor always have me wanting more, so I ration how many of your videos I watch at a time and they last longer.
Some people say that the Native tribes living on Jekyll Island and other small island areas near the coast of Georgia were possibly Phoenicians. They said that in the areas even going inland a little bit towards the Smokey Mountains they found tribes that were unlike any of the others nearby due to their pale skin, blue and green eyes, and tall stature. The Europeans said that aside from their culture they almost could have been mistaken for Europeans themselves. So I definitely believe that the Phoenicians traveled through the Sargasso Sea.
Typically I’ve already heard about whatever topic Arran presents, but I’ve legitimately never heard about this before. There’s always new things to learn!
Now, the amount of sargassum in the sea has usually been rather scanty in modern times. So a lot of those older reports were often considered to be exaggerations. But given the massive mats of the stuff floating in seemingly from somewhere between the Brazilian and African coasts in the past few years we really need to give those reports some serious scrutiny. I was reading an article from a sailing website and someone who was participating in a racing event, thought it would be ok to sail through a patch instead of zigzagging though. Boy was he wrong. The pace of the boat went to a crawl, and they had to work to keep the rudder clear. If the Rosalie was caught in such a thick mat that it couldn't move, maybe they thought they could get on any rowboats they had and paddle their way through. Or if they weren't too far from land, some thought they could swim it. 🤷♂ Eventually the ship drifts free where it is eventually found. 7:13 Wait, they found artifacts under the sargassum sea? Why isn't this bigger news? There have been speculations that Phoenicians or someone, has been shipping copper over from American mines into the "old world" and supporting the bronze age there. If they arrived at the sargassum sea, then it isn't hard to surmise that they didn't make it all the way to the American continent. I disagree that they were harvesting the sargassum. More likely the sargassum wasn't an issue at first. And then a couple of years and whammo! large mats suddenly show up that made the trip too hazardous to continue. Trade stops and the copper route gets lost to history.
I was a long liner and spent some time in the sargasso sea. I remember while plowing through a mat of weed, see hundreds of little plastic kids lawnmowers floating on top, like they were cutting the grass. They must have fallen out of a container, but it was a site to see.
I spend a lot of time listening to several channels with videos like this, about random topics & science, and like to think I have at least heard of most things like this... but I cannot say I have ever heard of the Sargasso Sea. This channel is always a pleasant surprise. Thank you!
@@suteners2111 going back doesn't help if they never tell us there to start with. we never really had any classes this would even fit into anyway. I guess Geography would be it, but that class was pretty basic & never got too much into the oceans that much, other than basic concepts.
all good. and also, lol, watch out for some of the creatures’ defense mechanisms when the sargasso washes up on shore! Yes! Such as, the fire bristle worm! Yikesies! And, the snippy crabs in the sargasso washing up on shore! 😅 but also, leave the sargasso piles on the beach which help stop beach erosion.
I wish to thank you for your content, as someone who has Adhd, you managed to keep me enthralled and engaged in the content you provide, it might be a weird way to learn about the world but then I say let me be weird. Channels like yours are something I look for when browsing, as it feeds my constant addiction to mysteries, myths, facts, and just generally how things work, it's not a total guide to everything but honestly, the sheer variety of topics and information provided is enough to have made me learn more and chase more of the wonder we have lying in this planet we call home.
It’s not real, adhd. It was a way to make being a make being a normal boy into a pathology and a way to make pharma shit tons of money. All studies that affirm ADHD were funded by big pharma. Teachers unions loved it because now boys could sit through their lesson plans geared to girl students. It became a meme in society and now people just accept that it’s real despite no evidence and plenty of evidence that the medication actually harms the children. Imagine thinking that giving amphetamines to a second grader is a good idea. It changes the brain and more than likely actually causes ADHD symptoms after prolonged use. The symptoms are mental withdrawal symptoms and the concentration comes from getting your fix. Stop taking pharma poison.
ADHD fellow here. I fully agree with you. This content helps with providing new stimulus and feeds the desire of learning something new, something interesting.
the last bit of your message made me do a double take and re-read your name, thinking you were John Michael Godier. I recommend that channel too btw, great content about space
Not weird, just different paths of learning and interests. You might like some of Simon Whistler's channels, such as Today I Found Out, and The Casual Criminalist.
As a Bermudian.... It would be nice if you mentioned us. We take care of our home too. It's a huge priority to the island if Bermuda and it's the people that push for preserving it. The name of the treaty is our capital and I don’t think that is a coincidence. A lot of people have no idea that Bermuda is in the Sargasso sea.... NOT the carribean. You talked about it like it was this empty place? How do you not mention the only country that exist in it? But mention, Christopher Columbus? Lol Anyways, cool video I guess.

Keep 'em coming. The only suggestion I have is to please include the American weight and measure calculations. It's too difficult asking Alexa to calculate for me every time..lol
Wow. What a fantastic video! Not only did you put basically 3 seperate channels worth of information about this area together (The Ocean Cleanup and Atlas Pro) , but managed to segway 2 of your other videos into it as well! Bravo sir, you are a master of smooth transitions lol
What i love and respect the most about Aaron is you can tell he really doesn't care what people think about him. He doesn't chase trends and he doesn't try to be someone he is not.
Im a fisherman in portugal and i donk think that is the case with eels as we fish them of our coast with as litle of 5 to 10 cm and the big ones reach up to 10 to 12 kg sometimes over that .they might be reproducing in holes of big rocky structurs,just no one can see. Our piers extend out to the sea and they are full off eels
He depicted the wrong species of eel; the correct ones are (Anguilla anguilla & Anguilla rostrata). The species return to inland systems throughout the Americas and Europe. The mystery is the migration they undertake to reproduce in the sea.
I really don't know how many people work on the videos but good job you're very successful but I still think you're way underrated for the quality of your content no bad videos no lazy work nothing ever off and no matter how boring the topic for me i can count on you to make it interesting to the point of multiple watch Keep up the amazing work
Here in the coast of Mexico we had "sargazo" for a few years, the seaweed suddenly appeared on beaches. I was there and it doesn't smell bad, but it completely takes over and there's no space for tourism until it's cleaned up.
I remember in the 80s that they found in Jawa Bay (located at the midpoint of the southern coast of Cuba) an ancient Stone Altar covered with Phoenician writings.
Yes there is in fact evidence, a few bits, that the Phoenicians did land, and this dating goes back to at least the Bronze age. From the Azores being inhabited, to places both in North, and South America showing evidence. The thing is like many aspects of knowledge, they were kept secret or disbelieved by people like the Greeks who were competitors, or the by the Romans, another group who were competitors. They have found artifacts in many places in the Americas and Atlantic areas. It is NOT a crazy theory. They also found Roman-era goods, which were transported on those Carthagian ships. It does not mean the Romans went there, only those who had access to Roman-era goods. The fact remains these objects have been found.
Thank you very much for this video. You are somebody, who can not only explain phenomenon extremely well, but you also love your language and your words.

Who doesn't love this dude! Been watching him since nearly thr beginning and his content gets better n better. Been wanting to learn more about this, but always forget. Well, then i see your video and just finished it, so off to learn more about this sea 😊
Alway love to see a video by you pop up! This was a pretty interesting watch, it's definitely sending me down a rabbit hole of my own. Thank you for the video!
Your videos are always interesting. I've learned about things I've never even heard about before. And you speak so well I've no problems to hear and understand. Thanks for all the answers to life, universe and everything.
This channel gets better. You explain things in a formal way with a style that makes it entertaining somehow I can't explain. My new favorite on RUclips
So if the jet streams are supposedly changing, & the poles are moving, will this destroy or move the Sargasso? Imagine how that would affect the earth, the things we dont even consider, but I'm glad it's being monitored & researched.
subtropical anticyclone is something you should check out it's a geographical features of oceans, some have more than one if they are spread out both north and south of the ecuator the Sargasso Sea is in that region in the North Atlantic so it will just move around where the currents end up settling
I was thinking about the stone slab found at Brazil exactly when you mentioned it; they were without a doubt the most impressive civilization when it comes to sea exploration.
actually, theres evidence that native south americans were related to polynesian and were different then those who came over the land bridge in north america. so that probably makes the polynesians the most prolific explorers of the old world.
im so hung over and low on dopamine. ive deen trying to find something i can watch that doesn’t t make me want to doomscroll at the same time. this channel is it. thank you thoughty2
@Thoughty2 great video and content. I have one request - could you possibly use the correct world map in your videos, one that represents the true size of each landmass.
The sargasso sea is where the American and the European eel breeds. Pretty much the only difference between the two is one vertebrae but strangely enough one type goes far to inland America as far as Minnesota and possibly even further at one point but hydroelectric dams have hindered their journey. The others swim all the way to (u guessed it) Europe. That in itself is a mystery as to why they have become separate breeds.
The map on wiki for European eels also encompasses the Mediterranean. Maybe some Phoenician fishing vessels were following the eel migration when the adults returned to spawn to try to harvest roe (or other reason) and that is how they ended up at the sargassum (which may or may not have been full of weed at that time). Only to see a line of American eels swimming in. I am speculating that the eels were in greater numbers at that time and imagine a dark column that may have been visible from their boats. 🤷♂ If we remember that the Atlantic was once much narrower in the geological past, it may have been that when the eels developed their migration paths, the coasts of east and west might only have been as narrow as a regular river. And what we now know as American and European might have only been east bank and west bank.
I am from Florida and it is pretty common for sargassum to wash up on the beaches. Mostly on the east coast of Florida where I live, which makes sense since it is facing the Sargasso sea.
Content idea for you: The new underdog hero of the deadite. Deadpool is basically a scientific version of Spawn. These and other reinanimated corpses have gained empathetic support, able to justify their vengeance to the audience.
Been watching for a few years, thank Thoughty2 so much for not just switching to a younger demographic like Game Theory and countless other channels I could name. That shit always ends in lower-quality videos
It reminds me somehow of Jupiter's great red spot. I knew the Sargasso Sea was a thing, having seen it on some map when I was a kid and wondering about how a sea could be in the middle of all that ocean, but didn't know anything else about it. Thanks for the video!
The wonders of our beautiful blue marble we call home!!!! It's a shame how mankind and its "advancements" have ruined it. Thanks, Thoughty2, for yet another very informative and entertaining video. A job very well done.
New technology needs to desperately be launched to clean the Sargasso of the plastic debris throughout it. Plastic destroying microorganisms would do wonders there, and globally in general.
Shout out to the cleanup crews doing the dirty work that our generation are too lazy to do and the generations before us were too clueless to realise what damage it caused. Much respect
"Shout out" is high up within the words and phrases that make you sound stupid. No one really needs to shout if they are congratulating. So let's put this phrase to rest!
Thank you for adding that end part about the plastic waist. We need to raise allot more awareness around these issues as we will not have a planet to live on in less than 9 years.
When I was MUCH younger I meta native had served in the Canadian military. He said that that they had used Phoenician dictionaries to translate Cree. Which is spoken in northern Canada.
Man has always traveled the globe. I think mainly it is driven by the desire to get as far away from family as possible, not a desire to find new places that makes us travel.
Lol, me too......I don't want to one up you, but I remember Global cooling. "The ice-age is coming, the sun zooming in, ..." The Clash, London calling 😂
The sargassum seaweed floating up in Caribbean Florida, Central America and the Gulf Coast is not coming from the Sargassum Sea but from Sargassum development between Brazil and Africa…. As far as I understand it

it's a geographical features of oceans, some have more than one if they are spread out both north and south of the ecuator
the Sargasso Sea is in that region in the North Atlantic so it will just move around where the currents end up settling
Aaron : I'm glad you asked
Me : I didn't, but do go on ...
😂
I was thinking about the stone slab found at Brazil exactly when you mentioned it; they were without a doubt the most impressive civilization when it comes to sea exploration.
actually, theres evidence that native south americans were related to polynesian and were different then those who came over the land bridge in north america. so that probably makes the polynesians the most prolific explorers of the old world.
been watching a lot of your videos lately, really enjoying them. Every new video it's like you are getting a month younger
Wonderful little known story. Well done
I would love a collab of Thoughty2, Brew and Joe Scott
If I wasn’t jobless by watching too much of Thoughty2, I would have bought your ads everytime just to support you.
Wild preposition for a joke
@@christinefischer2137he ain’t joking
@@mondoseguendo6113 Excuse me if I highly doubt that he is "jobless by watching too much of Thoughty2".
im so hung over and low on dopamine. ive deen trying to find something i can watch that doesn’t t make me want to doomscroll at the same time. this channel is it. thank you thoughty2
You’re cute lol
Thank god I had almost run out of thoughty2 videos!
i live for thoughty2’s videos
Thanks for the video, can't wait to see it haha.
Thoughty2 is like MrBallens posh British twin in story telling
@Thoughty2 great video and content. I have one request - could you possibly use the correct world map in your videos, one that represents the true size of each landmass.
You're enunciation is so awesome! Keep up the great work, and fun and informative stories!
Aliens?alien breeding area? Eels are definitely Aliens. Thank you Again for sharing your perspective with us!
You can find that seaweed on the coast of Texas and Mexico. I have been to both places and found that along the beach.
This was a particularly interesting topic! Very well-presented and informative.
I absolutely love your channel. I started watching it in 2021 while I was pregnant with my 1st child.
The sargasso sea is where the American and the European eel breeds. Pretty much the only difference between the two is one vertebrae but strangely enough one type goes far to inland America as far as Minnesota and possibly even further at one point but hydroelectric dams have hindered their journey. The others swim all the way to (u guessed it) Europe. That in itself is a mystery as to why they have become separate breeds.
The map on wiki for European eels also encompasses the Mediterranean. Maybe some Phoenician fishing vessels were following the eel migration when the adults returned to spawn to try to harvest roe (or other reason) and that is how they ended up at the sargassum (which may or may not have been full of weed at that time). Only to see a line of American eels swimming in. I am speculating that the eels were in greater numbers at that time and imagine a dark column that may have been visible from their boats. 🤷♂
If we remember that the Atlantic was once much narrower in the geological past, it may have been that when the eels developed their migration paths, the coasts of east and west might only have been as narrow as a regular river. And what we now know as American and European might have only been east bank and west bank.
And we cant breed eels we dont know how they actually do it
Maybe the Sargasso-Sea is the All-Blue, Sanji is looking for...?
I am from Florida and it is pretty common for sargassum to wash up on the beaches. Mostly on the east coast of Florida where I live, which makes sense since it is facing the Sargasso sea.
Ive seen where the weed washes on shore but i didnt know there was a floating Amazon rain forest. This is amazing
Content idea for you: The new underdog hero of the deadite. Deadpool is basically a scientific version of Spawn. These and other reinanimated corpses have gained empathetic support, able to justify their vengeance to the audience.
Hey man! I've been watching your videos for quite a while, and i always seem to enjoy them no matter the topic, keep up the good work! 👍 ❤
Yay!!! Thank you for your special perspective of things. Love ❤️ you!!
Most days going to bed I listen to one of the videos…really soothing..❤ thankyou thoughty2
Like your content and voice mate 👌
There is literally not a single video you have made I haven't enjoyed and gotten smarter while having fun.
Always interesting ❤
Been watching for a few years, thank Thoughty2 so much for not just switching to a younger demographic like Game Theory and countless other channels I could name. That shit always ends in lower-quality videos
The North Atlantic Gyre reminds me of the great red spot on Jupiter.
Microbes have already evolved to eat plastic.
That reality will only escalate.
Food source, evolve to eat it.
…….water??? I’m just guessing.
Hardly hidden, is it?!
And every government will blame every other government for the plastic floating in the seas.
It reminds me somehow of Jupiter's great red spot. I knew the Sargasso Sea was a thing, having seen it on some map when I was a kid and wondering about how a sea could be in the middle of all that ocean, but didn't know anything else about it. Thanks for the video!
Great analogy!
Thank u for the awesome vidya sire
Hey 42 here
42??
It's always us bloody humans . The world be a great place without us
The wonders of our beautiful blue marble we call home!!!! It's a shame how mankind and its "advancements" have ruined it. Thanks, Thoughty2, for yet another very informative and entertaining video. A job very well done.
After i watched your eel video I did a whole school project on eels because of how informative all of these damn videos are.
New technology needs to desperately be launched to clean the Sargasso of the plastic debris throughout it. Plastic destroying microorganisms would do wonders there, and globally in general.
Until everything you own goes rotten as fast as a banana.
While not meant to be funny, i keep imagining well doers tossing the latest iphones into the water, launching new technology into the water.
Shout out to the cleanup crews doing the dirty work that our generation are too lazy to do and the generations before us were too clueless to realise what damage it caused. Much respect
"Shout out" is high up within the words and phrases that make you sound stupid. No one really needs to shout if they are congratulating. So let's put this phrase to rest!
@@dxb8086 shout out to the unhappy d!ckheads of the world, your parents may not love you but we do.
The sargassum seaweed makes it way all over to the Caribbean
Where it affects my country's beaches horribly
Im from Barbados 🇧🇧
Learning has always been fuel for my dopamine levels .. but crikey you make it so unbelievably entertaining 👌
We haven't even finished exploring the oceans, barely touched them, yet we have already made a great start on destroying it.
yea, it is really a sad reality 😢
"Not too fuck it up,"😂 best thing I've heard this year?!!!! 😂😂😂👌
With all the vessels sunk by war, there are probably trillions on the seabed.
Trillions? Are they anything like scallions?
Trillions? Are they anything like scallions?
Thank you for adding that end part about the plastic waist. We need to raise allot more awareness around these issues as we will not have a planet to live on in less than 9 years.
First
You are the first 🎉
When I was MUCH younger I meta native had served in the Canadian military. He said that that they had used Phoenician dictionaries to translate Cree. Which is spoken in northern Canada.
How could i live to be 75 and not have known this? 😮Thanks Thoughty❤
i love every second of it, even the ads are nice
Man has always traveled the globe. I think mainly it is driven by the desire to get as far away from family as possible, not a desire to find new places that makes us travel.
Really enjoyed that, thank you❤
I’m old enough to remember when it was plastic bags that were going to save the planet from the evil, easily recyclable and biodegradable paper bag.
Lol, me too......I don't want to one up you, but I remember Global cooling.
"The ice-age is coming, the sun zooming in, ..."
The Clash, London calling 😂
Thanks for talking about eels!!
The sargassum seaweed floating up in Caribbean Florida, Central America and the Gulf Coast is not coming from the Sargassum Sea but from Sargassum development between Brazil and Africa…. As far as I understand it
As always, I totally loved the video. Your voice always pulls me right into the story. Well done brother. Well done. 👍😎
More interesting than I thought it would be. 🐠🐠🐠 🐟
Thank you. Thank you for expanding my ocean awareness. Your animations are top notch.
