Remember the giant squid was also a cryptid till they finally confirmed they are real in the last few decades. Also check out accounts of military personnel that reported seeing great ocean beasts through the years, one good example in 1915 a german submarine had an encounter with a giant sea creature witnessed by 6 people including the officer and engineers which later in description found there had in fact in history been such a creature roaming the oceans called Mosasaur.

That was impressive on many levels, the timing, the recitation of information, the location, and the ideas :) I agree with other comments, this channel is definitely underrated
Seldom have I been so impressed by a semi-random reddit post, and with going more than halfway through the video without seeing what I wanted to see but still seeing things I want to see
“Without seeing what I wanted to see but still seeing things I want to see” might be the best way to describe what makes the content of a video of this length interesting

considering that deep sea creatures rise to the surface when in stress and pollution causes them to have stress, now it is the perfect time for them to emerge
Not entirely sure what this refers to, most deep sea creatures already ascend towards the surface every night as part of a common cycle. I guess their might be more factors but they already do it on a daily basis
I'm not really sure how much I buy the marbles out of the bag comparison. In that example, and the person is pulling marbles out of a bag at a steady rate, and nothing is influencing the speed at which they draw marbles. But the speed at which the sea monster curve has leveled over the decades is being influenced by how quickly our technology is advancing, the rate at which we are doing underwater exploration, and the increase in easy ways to document sightings or corpses of animals, using photos or videos.

It's been 2 years and a half and this video continues to impress me by it's quality. Really wonderful work. I wish i knew more about all the work that was done behind the scenes for this video.
James, I find it WILDLY attractive that you can retain, and regurgitate (a word my Latin teacher utilized, telling us to "regurgitate the lesson onto paper") that much knowledge. Would love to meet a guy like that some day. There doesn't seem to be many around. You are fascinating and I enjoy your channel. Much success to you.
This is what makes youtube so much better than TV. This is the kind of gem of content which feels like a lucky find in amongst all the crap posted to youtube. Amazing work and keep it up.
First off TY for making this video and second I gotta say your pace of walking while steadily talking all around that seaside town and staying on point is super impressive lol.
Amazing video as always! Incredible coordination with the walk - spotless timing, while it still felt spontaneous and natural. I hope you get a lot more recognition going forward!
What a great video. I'm amazed you could memorize this script and time it so well with the location throughout the shot. And this was all done in a single take, impressive! This gave me a very Tom Scott vibe. Definitely subscribing!
This is the best educational video on youtube, it's concise, informative, graphically beautiful, well presented, interesting, and the fact it was done in one take, with the walking timed to the graphics displayed, using the environment for scale and for landmarks, and the quality of production, its perfect
Gotta give credit that this was shot in a single take and not jump cuts everywhere. Also ironic just talked about sea monsters but finishes with "keep looking up"
The way you perfectly coordinate the view with what you're referencing in the script...and the fact that it's all one cut with no script in hand...this is the cinematography of the Gods.

"We're missing six sea monsters"
Well jesus Frank your only job was to keep track of them and you lost SIX?!
Don’t blame Frank man. Its not his fault they got lost.
The production and presentation quality of this is amazing! You truly are a worthy successor to Tom Scott now that he has stopped making "Interesting Things/Places" videos. Amazing Talent!
He did such a good job explaining how he knows that there's six missing sea monsters out there
Nice seeing you again
You are everywhere
You need a life

This was second for second the best short-umentary I've ever seen.
The creative camera work, the planning for the walk, the timing and execution of the narrative, and the concise yet interesting point.

Well, clicking on this random video recommended by the algorithm I was expecting some shallow especulation, but not a very solid and well researched video with so cool productions values (even if I didn't learn something new)...and a presenter so young!
Props to you mate!
That was impressive on many levels, the timing, the recitation of information, the location, and the ideas :) I agree with other comments, this channel is definitely underrated
Seldom have I been so impressed by a semi-random reddit post, and with going more than halfway through the video without seeing what I wanted to see but still seeing things I want to see
Thanks, thats the best!

“Without seeing what I wanted to see but still seeing things I want to see” might be the best way to describe what makes the content of a video of this length interesting
"Atomic Froniter". That made me laugh. Amazing, amazing work. This video is so interesting on so many levels. The subject of course but also the visuals, the smooth camera work, the location, the perfect 7 minutes long speech, the wmooth walk. That some impressive work!
I need to learn these edits, super cool!

considering that deep sea creatures rise to the surface when in stress and pollution causes them to have stress, now it is the perfect time for them to emerge
Not entirely sure what this refers to, most deep sea creatures already ascend towards the surface every night as part of a common cycle. I guess their might be more factors but they already do it on a daily basis
I'm not really sure how much I buy the marbles out of the bag comparison.
In that example, and the person is pulling marbles out of a bag at a steady rate, and nothing is influencing the speed at which they draw marbles.
But the speed at which the sea monster curve has leveled over the decades is being influenced by how quickly our technology is advancing, the rate at which we are doing underwater exploration, and the increase in easy ways to document sightings or corpses of animals, using photos or videos.

Physically yes. Everything else...
Look. If you know, you know. If you don't, don't ruin it for yourself.
Ah yes, Dolphins. The rape gangs of the sea.

Such a underrated channel, the quality is so high for a channel so small, you will go places bro.
I mean i have read your comment a few times and i still dont know what it means
@@Louis-ek4yi they mean the channel is underappreciated and it will soon become popular
@@wippo42 In that case i'm not sure i agree with the statement
It's been 2 years and a half and this video continues to impress me by it's quality. Really wonderful work. I wish i knew more about all the work that was done behind the scenes for this video.
This was great!
Thanks
You’re welcome
I agree
His voice is like a narrator for an actual sea monster expedition.
Where’d you get your profile picture? It’s amazing.
James, I find it WILDLY attractive that you can retain, and regurgitate (a word my Latin teacher utilized, telling us to "regurgitate the lesson onto paper") that much knowledge. Would love to meet a guy like that some day. There doesn't seem to be many around. You are fascinating and I enjoy your channel. Much success to you.

This is what makes youtube so much better than TV. This is the kind of gem of content which feels like a lucky find in amongst all the crap posted to youtube. Amazing work and keep it up.
First off TY for making this video and second I gotta say your pace of walking while steadily talking all around that seaside town and staying on point is super impressive lol.
Daredevil: “I have the best one take scene.”
Atomic Frontier:
Amazing video as always!
Incredible coordination with the walk - spotless timing, while it still felt spontaneous and natural.
I hope you get a lot more recognition going forward!
No script reading. Just a man with a whole lot of knowledge. Great video!
This channel deserves way more exposure, I hope you see the growth you deserve :)
I totally agree with you!
He just got featured on Tom Scotts channel
What a great video. I'm amazed you could memorize this script and time it so well with the location throughout the shot. And this was all done in a single take, impressive! This gave me a very Tom Scott vibe. Definitely subscribing!
"Specify sea monsters as two metres and above."
Me: "So tuna can be a sea monster then? Makes me feel more badass when I eat sandwiches now."
Tuna isn't a sea monster, it's name even says so! (Tuna/ Two? Nah.)
Leviathan burger.

“I’m going to be defining sea monster as anything 2 meters and above”
NBA Players: :/
Lmao
As a person who absolutely shits himself infront of camera, Im impressed how this guy kept his cool presenting points while walking for 7 minutes
To be fair it’s easier if it’s just the camera guy
seriously, i can't even memorize a 10 second line and say it in front of a camera without messing up
This is the best educational video on youtube, it's concise, informative, graphically beautiful, well presented, interesting, and the fact it was done in one take, with the walking timed to the graphics displayed, using the environment for scale and for landmarks, and the quality of production, its perfect
Gotta give credit that this was shot in a single take and not jump cuts everywhere.
Also ironic just talked about sea monsters but finishes with "keep looking up"
The fact this is a single one-take video with seamless edits that add to the presentation is amazing!
The way you perfectly coordinate the view with what you're referencing in the script...and the fact that it's all one cut with no script in hand...this is the cinematography of the Gods.
3:30 You didnt have to do that. Nobody would be mad if you just said "120 meters". But you did. Well freakin done and point well made
"I think dolphins are pretty cool and not at all monstrous" Who's gonna tell him what they do for fun?
Wear starfish as dolphin pasties?
@@lick28 Have you not heard the stories? I'd be happy to share, but i must warn you it is quite graphic and may change you view on dolphins forever
@@liklik7490 I was joking. I know a few things and nothing can make my view on animals any worse.
@@lick28 Sea Otters have been repeatedly doccumented to kidnap baby seals and 'use' them for pleasure while drowning the baby seal. The Otters are then recorded to 'use' the corpse of the baby seal for over a week after expiry. It's kindof comforting in a weird way knowing that Mankind isn't the only messed up species on Earth.
@@Neion8 I knew about rapey dolphins but sea otters using baby seals as fleshlights even after they're dead is something I didn't want to bring to my therapist today.
I don’t often send a yt link to someone, but after hearing many citations, detailed information, dates and other, and realising that it is only one take, I was blown away by the thought of the shear amount of effort/time this must have taken. The content is obviously also perfect,, but the video itself could have already provided enough content for an entire collage of videos. Best vid I have seen this year
I just came here from Tom's video and I just can't think of a reason why the youtube algorithm didn't show any of your videos earlier. I love the way you guys explain (and show) things: I've already watched most of your videos and found myself learning something new (always more than I expected) with every one of them, I also love the way you can fit that amount and variety of information in every single video, without deviating from the main subject but enriching it with related facts.
Also, the locations and the quality of the video itself are amazing! I'm sure you guys are going to reach huge numbers!
bro this is amazing you are 100% gonna blow up
Thanks! Really glad youre enjoying it

"Do you reckon that was good?" love the search of approval. No worries man it was sick! Great job!
"Megalodon is not one of them."
Elsewhere, in the middle of one of the seas of Earth, a Megalodon watches this video......don't question it, as soon as the words, "and Megalodon is not one of them" and then leans back in a comically large recliner that it somehow acquired without much questions asked as too why they are building such a large chair and sending it to the middle of literal nowhere. The Megalodon leaned back, made all the more comical as it was floating between the surface and ocean bottom, and tried its best to placed its fins together while exclaiming, "Good.....they suspect nothing."
This made me laugh

The meg is not a sea monster, it's just a chill oversized dude chilling in the bottom of the sea sipping it's cocoa watching RUclips videos. Now that doesn't sound monstrous to me.

Holy crap, this is impressive! He walked and talked near perfectly and without getting winded or tripping on any words, while the cameraman walked along with him steadily and panned and walked around at all the right times, all in one long take!!!
Between the science, camera work and the coordination of the shot, I’ve never seen video more worthy of a like and a sub.
This is really impressive production / performance. Well done!
This video was superb. The title was catching, the content well rehearsed and executed with excellent timing. I haven't been this impressed with the quality of a video in a long time. Fantastic work.
I can't believe that a video of this quality has less than ten thousand views. This is the same quality as Tom Scott, it should be getting millions of views! I wonder how many other such videos are being hidden from me due to the RUclips algorithm.
I'm really impressed! This is a damn good one-take
Thanks! One of the hardest videos I've ever done. Glad we could pull it off
@@AtomicFrontier as am I! Currently checking out the other videos. Really impressed so far :)

uh oh, thats not good.
I really hope to see this person have their own show they host one day, Loved the energy!
That was the most impressive 7 minutes I have seen on RUclips or tv. I think that was one continuous shot and flawless. Just brilliant.
just saw this video on Reddit, and immediately thought that this channel deserves more subscribers. keep it up!!!
Thanks Aaron! We're working on it (but sending a link to your nerdy friends also helps!)
What post was this ?
Glad to have discovered you through Tom Scott- you deserved it. Your work is fucking awesome and has definitely earned my subscription. I look forward to the amazing work that you'll be producing in the future!
production is great. i love that your delivering these facts in 1 take on a location. most youtubers just edit their conversations together
i like to imagine he just asked a stranger to film this quick, like a tourist asking for a picture lol.
These videos have such high production quality, they deserve more views.
Good lord that was an impressive single shot monologue. (Not to mention a genuinely interesting topic and a coherent delivery!) Great work!
I don’t think a single RUclips title has ever made me say “I beg your pardon?” outload before
Watching this has inspired me to finally learn how to edit motion tracked text that can be set behind subjects into the background
It’s amazing you did this all with one long tracking shot. Most cable tv productions couldn’t pull this off.
I'm so glad Tom Scott recommended this channel. There's some quality content here. Good luck guys 👌🏼
Okay did nobody else notice how the words at the beginning spelled out “Atomic Froniter” instead of “Atomic Frontier”?
I literally paused the video, rewinded it, looked in the comments because I was so confused. How are more people not seeing this.
You have gained forbidden knowledge. Good luck
I saw the text, paused the video, rewinded, lookes at the channel name and looked at the text and then wondered why none of the to comments noticed

@@RainbowBunnycornReading We are, we just don't give a shit.

Such a great video! One single take for the whole thing, amazing camera work, and didn't even stutter. That was amazing!
Never seen this channel before, but that was an incredibly good video! The way it was shot, the content being broken down into clear, bitesized chunks with helpful infographics, and all in one take! Very impressive!
