Scientists and explorers go on an extraordinary mission in Mozambique to reach a forest that no human has set foot in. What was your favorite part of this video?
Everything is so interesting! I never knew that there were still forests out there that are free from human interference! Thank you to the people who does their best to conserve our natural resources!! I would also like to extend my gratitude to National Geographic for never failing to provide us entertaining & educative videos.

@@perryleduc1954 Thanks for inspiring me😭❤️ Keep safe 😘this time of crisis 🙂 ... I'm hoping that someday I'll become a biologist , and nature calls my name😅

By using "we," there is a direct entanglement of people as a total. Of everybody. Rather than pointing the blame onto a discrete, manipulating group, we are therefore separating ourselves from the ties to this issue. It shows us OUR own reflection, as it affects the multitude.
So i seen on the discovery channel about all these volcanoes that spew more co2 in a day than all mankind together...what we going to do about that?....how can we stop 100s of volcanoes?
@Roberto - none of which is true in this case .... maybe do some background research first and you will see that this is part of a much larger program of conservation by this team in northern Mozambique to generate the evidence base (e.g. new species) to conserve these forests (most are very accessible and highly threatened) from destruction .... and what are you doing for conservation?
Would have loved to hear a bit of the local community’s knowledge of the mountain. They said no one had gone up to the forest, but did they have stories of why or what they thought was up there? Also would have liked to know the specialities of the members of the expedition.
The first “climber” is also an Exxon employee. He is there to learn if there are any signs of oil there on that mountain. If so, as the first person up there, him who is representing Exxon will have dibs on the drilling rights. The rest of them are there to have Forrest orgies where no one else has done it before.
For whatever reason, the video leaves out the fact that the mountain had been visited by locals before, albeit not in the recent memory of anyone nearby. However, the did find ancient pots buried near the stream.
I'd be smiling too, if I could do what he does... I still am smiling whilst going through a forest and look at live around me. It's people (and their actions) that make me cry.
" Look deep into nature and then you will understand everything better' Albert Einstein, This quote has always been an inspiration and rightly represents the blessings of nature. Born and raised in a pristine mountain environment I always feel the nature very spiritual.
This kind of media should be the ones that is shown to the youth today. It shows the perfection and beauty of nature as it is. We should be thankful enough to have lived in this time where nature still exist but also be responsible for passing it to the next generations. Best documentary i have ever seen in my life 👍.
Mutual of Omaha’s wild kingdom was a favorite show of my family as I was growing up. I believe that show was a main reason for my love of nature that I have had my whole life. That and my growing up in the country where I could explore forests and wetlands uninhibited.
Why “the youth”? We’re the ones who are going to have to watch the planet slowly start to cook us alive, because the older generation shoved all the consequences for their greed onto everyone else. We’re the ones who are trying to stem the tide, while the last vestiges of the older generation block us at every turn. We’re the ones who are screaming to “leave a better planet for our children” while the older generation seems to weirdly think they can take all the natural resources they’re brutally removing from the soil with them into the afterlife.... Said afterlife isn’t coming fast enough to quell the aggressive greed of the older generations that, IMHO, would do better to have this shown to them. Because they’ve forgotten what is beautiful in this world. The younger generation has known all along.
thank you very much for this upload, NatGeo! i've always loved forests and greeneries! i hope we can still save most of these forests in our efforts to curb a devastating climate change.
@Dik Burns unfortunately you are only partially correct. There are TOO MANY HUMANS on the Earth. No thanks to religious fanaticism, missionaries and poverty. FREE BIRTH CONTROL TO ALL! Or else we need and WILL EVENTUALLY EXPERIENCE a much more DEADLY VIRUS. Human beings might possibly be Nature's one MISTAKE. Nobody's perfect.
I applaud every knowledgeable people who devote their time and skills into the betterment of our world. Like with these amazing scientists who fight to preserve this planet's beauty, I am grateful for every person in any profession, who also abide by sustainable development and ecological modernization.
I so wish the video was longer! The excitement I felt waiting for them to reach the top and see what was up there was immense. It makes me so sad to think about what we are doing to our planet, I hope we can turn things around before it is too late

Well we the indigenous peoples of the earth have been harmonious with nature forever. It is only now some western folks have come full circle to understand that humans don't have to be at war with mother nature.
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. John 10:10 💙✨ But if ye will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret places for your pride; and mine eye shall weep sore, and run down with tears, because the LORD'S flock is carried away captive. Jeremiah 13:17 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Matthew 7:19 Parable of the Tares (Matthew 13:24-43)
Much respect to all for this amazing documentary. Living in big cities surrounded by asphalt and concrete so remote from wilderness creates humans totally desensitized. Consciousness and spiritual beliefs are the beginning to make the situation better.
Amazingly, those of us living in and near places like this are the desensitized ones, until someone from the city comes and marvels, then we remember how blessed we are
Not sure how I feel about this. I get the scientific approach but exposing it for the whole world to see may result its downfall. Some things should never be found and remain lost.
It's not exactly lost..The area around it is heavily cultivated ...So people always know about it..It just very hard to access due to the high cliff around it..
Reminds me of the movie "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" and I quote, "Beautiful things don't need attention". This phrase was uttered by the photographer Sean O Connell when he opt not to take pictures of Snow leopard in the wilderness of Himalayan mountains.
When he reached the top and saw all the butterflies. What we are doing to our miracle planet breaks my heart. Please keep doing your research. It does matter. Thank you.
It takes every single one of us to 'be more people like him' ... or we will never undo the arrogant destruction we've done to this planet-- and thus to ourselves, and everything upon it.
After watching this, I've decided my specialization. I would be taking Civil Engineering where my Specialization is Environmental, I would like my grandsons and greatgrandsons to have a world where Trees and Nature still exist
This made me feel sad, and happy at the same time. As an ecology student, I also want to help in conservation. But I'm also afraid I will be in debt my whole life for doing so. I hope our generation could change the way we give importance to the scientists. They are literally saving your baby even if they are not yet born. Also, I get a good cry over this one thanks natgeo!
Let your mission outweigh the cost. Even if you never pay it back financially you will pay it back socially. And our final judge will weigh in your favor
What an amazing expedition documentary - truly inspiring and wonderful to see such a team of dedicated conservation scientists of all ages and nations working for free to help save the planet - heroes!
The music durning the intro Amalthea made me cry. So gripping and I guess the sudden urge for tears was because of the fact that we do need to take care of this planet and a lot of people don’t even think about this stuff
Absolutely Beautiful Fi.m. I'd love to see more like it. The gentleman that was the narrator has quite a passion. His daughter is absolutely gorgeous n I love it when they rnso inquisitive. One of my daughter was that way n nowmshe is an adult with a grand daughter, who us also that way. I love to discover new things. I'm a 73 yr young great grandmother. Thank you so much for this film. I love National Geographic. Respectfully, Margie from Southern Mississippi
Thank you National Geographic for showing us this fabulous expedition! They are doing a great job and creating hope to preserve our planet. This rainforest looks beautiful and needs to be protected.
I had tears in my eyes watching this wonderful film. What an amazing planet we live on, such spectacular beauty and marvellous people investigating all these wonders on our behalf. Thank you for uploading this precious footage and helping us to realise how truly blessed we are.
Weird. Isn't it? When it happened to me for the first time, but watching a different documentary, it kind of shocked me that I was moved to tears. However, I wasn't surprised. As you said; "I've always loved Ecology this just affirmed it". Tears have a way of revealing our passions. We should always pursue our passions. It fuels our motivation and tenacity.
This Video may have a disadvantage because of curiosity for sure now that they know this land exist they would go to it, but I hope no one will touch this stunning and beautiful piece of land
I hope these scientists will reverse everything they did to this site. I.e. refill all the holes they dug, get rid of all the trash they have generated, release all the species they caught after recording it...
Let's hop on a jet with a humongous carbon footprint and go defile a pristine environment no human has ever touched because my daughter may not be able to see it one day. The irony is stifling.
Idk what they plan to do but unfortunately, scientists do sometimes take animals. But in the end, it’s for the good of the species or location, in situations like this, since it helps conservation efforts.
Wish this gave a little more information as to what they were doing and what they found etc. I get the point of the film but it kind of took away from the mountaintop itself.
Protective scientists setting traps and disturbing with hardware tools...???? I wish they find there a tyranisaurical bug that eat them all. Falsehood has no other limits than punishment.
That's a first. Most comments here are about attacking the ecologists for not being eco-friendly enough. To SJW's forgiveness is a dirty word. They get off on punishment, but love & forgiveness are anathema to them.
Yeah, I admire what he's trying to do and agree with everything he said but... Now there is human interference and the locals who previously never went there know there are juicy antelope up there. (Ones on ground level are all hunted out already).
Yess, actually it does make you proud, for someone who dedicate themselves to studying nature, conserving it, it's makes you really proud, it'll remember for thousand of generations, your name will be on it forever
Just don't put it on social media... Because it'll just get poached. Lizards, small mammals etc. People will want it as pets or medicine... Next thing you know they're extinct. It's fun and it's an achievement to discover something new but often these well intentioned scientist do a lot of harm as well. He obviously has no idea how Africa works. Those antelope probably went there (or are still alive because no one knew they were there) to escape humans because the whole area around them is cultivated. Now their location is revealed they're as good as dinner.... :(
The gaze they had over their face before climbing the cliff priceless all their emotions had been reflected in this glimpse they really love what they do 👏👏
Every single sight is musmerizing The moment when they found a new specie make me super excited So for me every single sight of the forest is heart touching Great job guys👍
Although that was a big hole to dig their impact upon that ecosystem is very minor and will likely recover very quickly and once again it will seem as if no one has been there.
I like all but their belief that they are the first humans to step foot there. I doubt this. Humans have been in Africa for hundreds of thousands of years. To assume no one ever managed to make it up that just seems arrogant to me.
He was only going on the word of the locals who weren’t aware of anyone ever being there. Sure that’s not definitive proof, but the locals would know if a bunch of foreign rock climbers were in town to climb it.
T.C. Thompson Some believe our planet is 350 billion years old, and they’re discovering lost civilizations all the time. We have no idea how many civilizations actually have disappeared. Just theories
I love every moment of this wonderful film, but my absolute favourite is when Dr Julian Bayliss says to his daughter, Poppy, "Can daddy help you?".....asking permission of each other, no forcing....is a wonderful message for our times.

" What we are doing to the forests of the world is but a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and to one another. "
It is a misuse of pronouns to say We are doing this. Largely, it is They, the governments and corporations, who do these things to Us. Pronouns.
By using "we," there is a direct entanglement of people as a total. Of everybody. Rather than pointing the blame onto a discrete, manipulating group, we are therefore separating ourselves from the ties to this issue. It shows us OUR own reflection, as it affects the multitude.
Can’t argue with that, sadly the only way ( in my opinion) we could stop is if there were so few of us we couldn’t destroy ourselves our our planet.

I need more of these. It inspires me even more to save nature.
Only stupid people are asking for inspiration before doing something meaningful.
Scientists, Thank you. May this voluntary expedition advance knowledge & assist in saving the climate, Earth, & us all.
Thank you so much for this excellent and important production!
This is just amazing documentary. Hats off to the experts
What an EXTRAORDINARY VIDEO.!!! THANK YOU 😍😍😍😍😍😍
What an amazing look at something so pure and beautiful! I could watch much more. Thank you for this video!
As a fellow human I am grateful for all the sacrifices my comrades gave and I am very proud of all of you
I had tears in my eyes watching this wonderful film. What an amazing planet we live on, such spectacular beauty and marvellous people investigating all these wonders on our behalf. Thank you for uploading this precious footage and helping us to realise how truly blessed we are.
PERFECT!!! Thank-you from my soul for sharing.... Please keep doing what your doing, my grandchildren need this!!
The music is amazing too, especially with the headphones.
I love that you SEE NATURE as I SEE AS WELL, even about the insects,
Thank you.
This should be shown in every school on the globe. 🌎🌍🌏
This has been a dream of mine since I was a kid. To the bunch that went out in this expedition; Thank You so so much.
I’ve never been moved to tears by a documentary I’ve always loved Ecology this just affirmed it.
Weird. Isn't it? When it happened to me for the first time, but watching a different documentary, it kind of shocked me that I was moved to tears. However, I wasn't surprised. As you said; "I've always loved Ecology this just affirmed it". Tears have a way of revealing our passions. We should always pursue our passions. It fuels our motivation and tenacity.
So what?
This is a powerful film
It's as powerful as the Batman movie eh!! 😁😁😆🤣
BAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
why?
How
@Dik Burns u're just scared of change
This Video may have a disadvantage because of curiosity for sure now that they know this land exist they would go to it, but I hope no one will touch this stunning and beautiful piece of land
I'm also hoping for that...discoveries could be good and bad at times. Great things should be protected.
Africans have known this land for hundreds of years, if not thousands.
I hope these scientists will reverse everything they did to this site. I.e. refill all the holes they dug, get rid of all the trash they have generated, release all the species they caught after recording it...
My thoughts exactly. I know they must take specimens, but I wish they wouldn't. This place is sacred.
That is the general procedure on such a project. But you're right, it's especially important in a location like this one.
Someone who clearly demonstrates his disdain for those who don't show respect makes it VERY obvious his intent is to return it to the way he found it.
Let's hop on a jet with a humongous carbon footprint and go defile a pristine environment no human has ever touched because my daughter may not be able to see it one day. The irony is stifling.
Idk what they plan to do but unfortunately, scientists do sometimes take animals. But in the end, it’s for the good of the species or location, in situations like this, since it helps conservation efforts.
An extraordinary heartening film...great a couple of Welsh based scientists on the trip to this magical mountain forest...thank you for this 🙏
Wish this gave a little more information as to what they were doing and what they found etc. I get the point of the film but it kind of took away from the mountaintop itself.
watching this brought tears to my eyes, the earth never ceases to amaze me
Love your spirit, effort, the photography, the music and poppy too! Lets hope we can do something for this planet real soon.
National geographic have always greatest documentaries based of reality and deep tech. Loving the National world wide.
What do you think of the new Fauci film on Nat Geo
I applaud everyone involved in this! Bravo! You are the best of us! I wish you all love!
Such a paradox, in order to study an undisturbed biotope, you'll need to disturb it.
And use tons of fossil fuels to get to it.
Lol... I agree. I haven't watched it yet but I hope he takes precautions as not disturb the forest.
Protective scientists setting traps and disturbing with hardware tools...????
I wish they find there a tyranisaurical bug that eat them all.
Falsehood has no other limits than punishment.
what they could of done is used drones... fly in fly out leave no trace.
Have you ever heard the saying that "one needs to break eggs to eat an omelet"?
Let's stop being selfish and forgive each other it will do wonders for our planet. Much love and many blessings
That's a first. Most comments here are about attacking the ecologists for not being eco-friendly enough. To SJW's forgiveness is a dirty word. They get off on punishment, but love & forgiveness are anathema to them.
@@robinlillian9471 let us look through the eyes of our Saviour not serpents
Beautifuly filmed, and exciting watching a place revealed without human interference. Well done
Yeah, I admire what he's trying to do and agree with everything he said but... Now there is human interference and the locals who previously never went there know there are juicy antelope up there. (Ones on ground level are all hunted out already).
Speechless at the profound beauty of this place as well as very embarrased by how much damage we have done to mother earth
I've never thought about it before, but discovering a new species and naming it sounds like an achievement in life.
Yess, actually it does make you proud, for someone who dedicate themselves to studying nature, conserving it, it's makes you really proud, it'll remember for thousand of generations, your name will be on it forever
@@abdindaraii537 unless you're carl linnaeus it'll get renamed and moved around in about 9 years
Or be very lucky and stumble across something new.
Just don't put it on social media... Because it'll just get poached. Lizards, small mammals etc. People will want it as pets or medicine... Next thing you know they're extinct. It's fun and it's an achievement to discover something new but often these well intentioned scientist do a lot of harm as well. He obviously has no idea how Africa works. Those antelope probably went there (or are still alive because no one knew they were there) to escape humans because the whole area around them is cultivated. Now their location is revealed they're as good as dinner.... :(
@@SkyeAten how Africa works? As if humans everywhere else haven’t destroyed most of the natural habitats they’ve been in.
The gaze they had over their face before climbing the cliff priceless all their emotions had been reflected in this glimpse they really love what they do 👏👏
So great! Thank you!
Every single sight is musmerizing
The moment when they found a new specie make me super excited So for me every single sight of the forest is heart touching
Great job guys👍
such a beautiful and passionate video. thank you.
I just shed tear when they said free😢 thank you so much for your mission to protect our planet ❤
Nothing had changed to this pristine forest untill they came....
"THEY" are the ones who give you information. Without them you will think butterflies are your ancestors spirits!!!
Although that was a big hole to dig their impact upon that ecosystem is very minor and will likely recover very quickly and once again it will seem as if no one has been there.
Well if they never discovered anything about this place.. you will be Litterally fukcing dead mate
stating a fact is hard to handle apparantly
The soundtrack sounds like interstellar somehow
Totally, and totally unsuitable for this doc
Great crew and touching production 👍🏼
it has the same eerie soundtrack feeling of Interstellar , inception and gravity. a great job
I like all but their belief that they are the first humans to step foot there. I doubt this. Humans have been in Africa for hundreds of thousands of years. To assume no one ever managed to make it up that just seems arrogant to me.
Nah not from Africa. Likely a bunch of rock climbers from the UK, the usa or australia have been up there a few times.
He was only going on the word of the locals who weren’t aware of anyone ever being there. Sure that’s not definitive proof, but the locals would know if a bunch of foreign rock climbers were in town to climb it.
T.C. Thompson Some believe our planet is 350 billion years old, and they’re discovering lost civilizations all the time. We have no idea how many civilizations actually have disappeared. Just theories
Everest wasn't scaled by a local the first time
For millions of years, humans have walked on Africa
I love every moment of this wonderful film, but my absolute favourite is when Dr Julian Bayliss says to his daughter, Poppy, "Can daddy help you?".....asking permission of each other, no forcing....is a wonderful message for our times.
thank you all for this . i hope others will find it as informative as I did. can we learn from our mistakes?
This is a wholesome topic that RUclips reccomended me instead of toxic political issues.
I wish a 3 hour documentary of the whole team and more details would exist!
