Taken from 'South Pacific' (2009).
Unimaginably vast, the Pacific Ocean is 99% water and only 1% land - you could fit the whole of the world's landmasses into it and still have enough room for another Africa! This landmark documentary series explores the sheer scale and majesty of the largest ocean on Earth, the isolation of its islands, the extraordinary journeys wildlife and humans have gone through to reach these specks of land, and what happened to both after their arrival.
Welcome to BBC EARTH! The world is an amazing place full of stories, beauty and natural wonder. Here you'll find 50 years worth of entertaining and thought-provoking natural history content. Dramatic, rare, and exclusive, nature doesn't get more exciting than this.

There's the "PENGWINGS" again XDDDDD

Alas ladies and gentlemen. Your friendly neighbour "PENGWIN" man is back.

Thanks to Benedict Cumberbatch who has the funniest way of saying Penguin in the world

[@somedayitsgonnamakesense]

i dont even know its dr strange narrating

[@blucat4]

He says it right, where are you guys from?

[@1Kent]

Surrounded by penguin experts and not one of them told him.

[@ceciLOVEtaco]

Seeing those wobbling bords become so agile in water amuses me .

[@ShamoIsFire]

Kowalski! Analysis!

[@HydreigonJ89]

These islands seem to be inhabited by our kind. The volcano must be helping them keep warm along with those kids. Those crabs might be a problem though.

No-one! We say penguins can't fly 😂

[@bilalkurdish.berlin5237]

So beautiful

[@SteveLoro]

la agilidad que tienen los pingüinos para nadar tan ágil mente es impresionante, literalmente parece que volaran en el agua

[@mellon4251]

Southeast of Hawaii is a very weird description of the Galapagos Islands.
Yeah, technically correct but kinda like saying Norway is Northeast of Florida

[@wacanimal]

Great scenes!

[@amazingvictory7658]

Thanks for this footage 😍😍😍😍

Crabs eat penguins that crazy

[@dominicharvey6048]

Who knew. I understand them eating eggs but never would have thought baby birds

[@westenwesten154]

2:01 "who says penguins can't fly?" well it is swimming not flying.

[@Ninjanimegamer]

Sure, you can call it swimming, but look at their formation. I see them flying.

[@irfanrahmansakib1989]

Do you know there’s a word 'Metaphor'.

[@zagree4454]

aw the baby got hurt by a crab

[@dominicharvey6048]

Crabs can easily cut off your finger, so yeah, it most likely cut it's erm wing? Flippers? Fin?

Sehr schön Gruss Jürgen 🤠

[@footfault1941]

Could fall victim of crab! Scary, but given the size of them, not impossible.
Underwater penguins can fly .. as for the scene presented here looks more like a tuna attacking a shoal of fish. Their velocity & a sudden turn match it. Although picking up fish one by one with such a tremendous maneuvering looks very costly, that's the way to sustain their life!

How do penguins keep FAR back from those 🌋, they must have secretive hidden places

[@johnfranks9271]

Like the Sally light foot crabs I can’t get past the possibly AI presenter who does not pronounce the G in penguin. Sort it out someone please 🙏

[@globin3477]

That's benedict Cumberbatch. He's a famous actor known for his odd pronunciation of penguin.

[@johnfranks9271]

@@globin3477 ah! that’s why he misses letters out I think it all started with his family name 🥒

[@bkjeong4302]

Penguins should be shown underwater 80% of the time and stop being shown as goofy animals on land, since they’re absolutely not goofy in their ACTUAL aquatic habitat. There’s been a tremendous amount of damage done to the public image of penguins because of extremely biased depictions.

Isn't "Pengweng" the Capital of North Korea?
