Everything Tech Review well it's working because they always have interesting stories!! which are short and sweet and straight to the point ...but they also leave you wanting more
oH. MY GOD... before I saw the manta and whale sharks swimming together I was literally gonna say those are my two fav marine animals..... im crying I wish I was there!!!!!!
The sad thing is that the friendly types of Manta Rays are going extinct due to them being easily fished by their friendliness and it left the reclusive types of manta rays in the gene pool, in the next 50 years it wouldn't be surprising if we wouldn't be able to interact with them anymore due to all ray with friendly personality has all been fished out. Just like the increase of tuskless elephant population in Africa.
I had the amazing experience to interact with a Manta Ray off the Kona Coast in Hawaii. It was at night, in a lighted area. It kept doing summer salts in front of me, within an inch of my body. It did this over and over. The mouth was wide open and I’m sure it was feeding. I couldn’t figure out why it kept banking so close to me. I certainly didn’t mind. It was amazing.
what an amazing job, must be so good for the soul. 1. she gets to immerse with nature, de stressing compared to e.g. office jobs with deliverable deadlines staring at a computer screen for 14 hours a day. 2. she has a noble inspiring purpose everyday to get up to save/protect these precious marine wonders
She's a scientist, so she definitely has a ton of computer screen staring to do every day, and a lot tighter deadlines and deliverables than regular office work.
My brother and I go to Hawaii with our parents to see them in the wild. They love the reef. And they love people. They are scary at first, but they are so gentle.
Asians need to realize that eating hamburgers and hotdogs will keep them healthy instead of seeking out exotic animal parts for tonics and and elixirs and soup.
The way they hunt is so funny to me because of how fast they flap They hunt in groups in a specific formation to get a lot of fishes, they make the fish feel calm until NYOOM FURIOUS FLAPPING Theyre like birds i love them
I love this channel so much. Instead of uploading the juiciest gossip, I see passion. There are passions for fishing, swimming with so manta rays, or even making the thinnest pasta! I love this channel and I'm so glad so subbed. Thanks GBS!
...i would like to pet this creature... also the asian traditional medicine thing needs to just stop lol. i dont care if some old fart finds that offensive, these incredible creatures being hunted to near extinction so some one can make a tonic that wont actually do anything is just stupid, its a waste of a beautiful and IMPORTANT animal.
For a marine biologist you seem to not know how to treat the mantas. You should not be touching them with your bare hands. Their entire immune system is contained in a mucus membrane on the outer layer of their skin. Our hands carry a lot of bacteria and chemicals that can eat through that membrane. When she touches their belly it rubs that protective layer off of them and makes them very vulnerable to infection and disease. If anybody has the chance to see a manta ray please respect it’s health and comfort.
If a single touch of the hand was enough to kill a 20ft manta ray, don’t u think they would’ve died off by now? You do realize fish ATTACH themselves to these guys, right? A touch won’t hurt. Heck, a HUG won’t hurt!!
People are just so ignorant towards the whole Ray species and what happened to Steve Irwin.First of all Steve Irwin was killed by a STINGRAY not a MANTARAY and even then Stingrays dont try to intentionally kill people like stories and people tell you they do.I feel sorry for Mantas especially because of this,Im glad this woman has devoted her time and energy on research with them.My dream would be to swim with Mantas! Such gracious and gentle creatures,HARMLESS!!!
I have had this obscure dream like forever to swim with and pet a manta ray (though I can forget the petting if it's harmful for the animal). I dunno, ever since i was a kid I just found them so majestic and was so goddamn annoyed how misunderstood they were. Stupid humans.
You will have to get in touch with Steve Backshaw from the UK. He’s a natural historian an Tv adventure that helps with little known naturalists saving in dangers species that are endangered or new to science. He’s also a bloody great bloke. Thanks for sharing guys Paul 19.25 gmt Uk cheers
I'm sad to hear one of my favorite ocean animals is being hunted close to extinction... (And these "tonics" made from them have no medical value, and are just "snake oil.") Save the Mantas!

Good thing I wasn't drinking coffee
C30 P17 pretty sure you stole this comment
Ocean waffle
"...for asian tonics" god dammit why is it always asian tonics.
XenomorphZZ It's probably China.
Covonuts goddamn Chinese
You know China, their folk medicine requires that an animal be endangered and protected in every other country.
Damn nabit! My people are so retarded for believing that powdered rhino horns somehow cure sickness.
Old stupid habits die the hardest.
The majestic sea Pancake.
The quality and amount of content this channel has is unmatchable

Matthew me too
They have both in they same tank in the Georgia aquarium
@@patriciasanchez9320 Who wants to see those poor creatures locked up in an aquarium? Me not.
They may be called devilfish, but they're more like the gentle kind blankets of the sea to me.
"Manta" is actually the Spanish word for blanket.
Devilfish? More like Blanketfish
Noah Henderson same
@@suicune690 that's so cute!
Yes. Manta rays and stingrays are very cute to me too.
I think she has one of the best jobs in the world.
Moontess she does.
that's why im studying marine biology
Sometimes it gets boring

Im going to breed them like how that kid bred laprasus from pokemon and released them in the wild so they dont leave that gene
I wonder if surfing on manta rays is possible just like in Super Mario Galaxy.
Keith Husain Honestly, if you manage to not slip off, a manta ray will probably let you ride it
You shouldent hold them because that could remove the mucus that protects them from bacteria
@@dcabral2585 that for fish
No, they would sink and be annoyed. And you'd be a bad person. Mario is a bad person.
@@janglur 😂
True true😭
Majestic sea flap flaps
Im happy that I subbed to this channel
Why couldn't it be Manta rays Steve was filming. 😢😢
Shiuld i breed manta rays since they are vunerable to becoming endangered
This channel deserves more subs. They put so much hard work and effort into their videos and it really makes a difference.
I'm scared to learn what will have to all the beautiful species on this planet in the future. The human race can be so scary.

They want to be recognized and loved that is so cool
I always love swimming because it almost looks like flying. And see a Manta “flap its wings” just adds to that thought.
You guys got Andrea Marshall? She's a titan when it comes to manta rays, huge fan of the species- thanks for making this video.
Amazing animals, i hope scientists can protect them for the many threats.
I can't go scuba diving because I have a problem with my heart but I wish I could now
F L A T B O Y E S
You are not petting a manta ray, you are petting a undersea ufo.
what an amazing job, must be so good for the soul.

fuck yeah I've never been first for anything lol
Jesse Renee You're not

My brother and I go to Hawaii with our parents to see them in the wild. They love the reef. And they love people. They are scary at first, but they are so gentle.
Manta rays are so fascinating and the way she describes them makes me wanna cry. Like I crave being near them
Yay the comments are now racist!
'Andrea - Queen of Mantas' a documentary about Andrea and her studies on Manta Rays!
Asian tonics? Man, if the "traditional medicine" market stopped overnight, imagine how many species would be able to recover...
Brown Himalayan bears, manta rays, wolves. A lot of them
A curse on those who fish/hunt and kill such beautiful and amazing creatures.
Let’s name the zones, the zones, the zones. Let’s name the zones of big blue sea!
tortilla fish go flap
Ooh lah! I love it ah! They're oh so awesome, sweet a lot a lot and talented as always ah!🌊🌊🌊🌊💗💗💗💗
Leave it to humans to be the reason that these beautiful creatures are literally disappearing ....
Who taught you how to dive? Keep your hands off all marine life!
SEA PANCAKE
yyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeppppppppppp iiiiiiiiii aaaaaaaaaaagggggggggggrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Aww the manta ray got some belly scratches 🥺
Floofy huggable sea blankets. 🌊
So sad, we are killing this world.😅
WTH! Asian tonic????
Asians need to realize that eating hamburgers and hotdogs will keep them healthy instead of seeking out exotic animal parts for tonics and and elixirs and soup.
Frynker Murr I don't think hot dogs or hamburgers are very healthy
Frynker Murr Asia is a very big country. it's specifically China u need to blame :(
Yuuki Asia is a continent, not a country
Save these beautiful creatures
Ima shark
Helicorpion :D ima doge

“It hoomans! Henlo hoomans!” -Majestic Sea Flap Flap
Everybody loves floofy sea flap flaps. 😋
I once encountered one at the beach one time. It freaked me out at first cause it was massive and swam over me lol. It was very cool!
This is one of the reasons why I’m going to become a marine biologist
One of the best trips I ever had in the Caribbean was the manta ray habitat. It was truly beautiful.
My favorite animal
Imagine Sir David Attenborough saying: "ahhhh, and here, we have the majestic giant sea blanket"
The way they hunt is so funny to me because of how fast they flap
They hunt in groups in a specific formation to get a lot of fishes, they make the fish feel calm until NYOOM FURIOUS FLAPPING
Theyre like birds i love them
Now I feel sad...
I always called them floating pancakes lol
A marine biologist should know: Never touch anything when you are diving. Pay respect and keep distance!!!!!
I want that lady's job, I've always loved manta rays and I would love to do what she does.
I love this channel so much. Instead of uploading the juiciest gossip, I see passion. There are passions for fishing, swimming with so manta rays, or even making the thinnest pasta! I love this channel and I'm so glad so subbed. Thanks GBS!
It’s forever fuck stingrays and Rest In Peace Steve irwin🤷🏽♂️💯

beautiful ocean and calm fishes
So majestic, I'm going to start diving soon and this is what I'm looking forward to most.
Just saw one for the very first time it jumped out of water while I was fishing yesterday. I still can't over of how huge it was
Fun fact: when they jump out of water to run from a predator,shake off parasites or just do it for fun
Moana's grandma would be proud
Why are you touching the rays? Pretty sure that you're damaging their mucous/protective layer
So beautiful, thank you for this piece.
Such beautiful creatures! I hope to see one up close one day.
THAT HAS TO B THEE ULTIMATE JOB❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊..

When will humans learn? When we harm nature we harm ourselves?

Codm lol simps
UNDERRATED
Can the Asians stop making tonics, and cooking dogs, please?
First part in the Dire Dire Docks and didn't get a star. Very dissapointing.
Manta Rays have the largest brains of any fish.
I love these sea pancakes
"WE FOUND THE MANTAS!"
lol we now a decimal of the ocean
I ❤ rays
uhhhhhh
F king asian tonics Asia ....... STOP
Anybody knows soundtracks?
Of course people want to off them 🙄
Why do most people fish for manta ray
People are just so ignorant towards the whole Ray species and what happened to Steve Irwin.First of all Steve Irwin was killed by a STINGRAY not a MANTARAY and even then Stingrays dont try to intentionally kill people like stories and people tell you they do.I feel sorry for Mantas especially because of this,Im glad this woman has devoted her time and energy on research with them.My dream would be to swim with Mantas!

Cute and amazing
is this a weighted blanket
I love God ❤❤❤ ! He made this world perfect … except when he created humans
So he didn't, then. God made a mistake.
Manta rays are the smartest fish
What an amazing creature...!!! :DDDDD
Plus, great music on the background...Does anyone know the titles?
they are the gentle giants
Don’t touch them
Are you single???

Nice job man
Manta Rays were my favorite animals growing up. I remember crying seeing them get killed for medicine.
omg!!! I just read an ACT english test about Marshall's research
