Watch the BBC first on iPlayer 👉 bbc.in/iPlayer-Home Over half of all animals in the open ocean drift in currents. Jellyfish cross entire oceans feeding on whatever happens to tangle with their tentacles. The jelly-like Portuguese man-of-war can harness sail power to fish with its deadly tentacles.
The big blue is the world's greatest wilderness, far from shore and many kilometres deep. It's a vast marine desert where there is little to eat and nowhere to hide. Yet it's home to some of the biggest and most spectacular creatures on earth.
This episode reveals what it takes to survive in this savage and forbidding world. We witness feats of incredible endurance, moments of high drama and extraordinary acts of heart-wrenching self-sacrifice.

My uncle saved me from one of these as a kid, probably around 6?! He threw me in the air to my dad who was next to him. It wrapped around his waist and he still has scars to this day. A real hero to me.
That's cool.
Absolute legend
A true hero

He is a hero.

Audio team: how many fake sound effects you want sir??
Director : yes
I never noticed, but yes it’s all there! 😂
The sound effects may be fake but they're cool
Pretty much all the sounds in these types of documentaries are added in post production.
@@rockycuro7737 i don't feel any cooling wearing fake Rolex..
@Ras Musevery single sound you hear in this video is added to the video. The sounds of the water even are recorded on a shore. Waves don't make those noises on open sea.
Getting paralyzed in agony, slowly having your body melted, and slowly drank like a fruit box has to be in the top 10 worst way to die for an animal.
Remember humans can still die of those tentacles, so if you're covered in those fuckaroos you could technically be eaten alive too
@@mhplayer you would drown before start getting eaten...
Are they big enough to eat you? I feel like you could just swim away
@@partyrockificatiable if the shock and pain doesnt make the person freak and and forget how to swim, yeah maybe

Jellyfish: kinda floats around
Pirates of the Caribbean theme starts playing.
They played it because of the ship named the Man O' War
Fun fact the Portuguese man o war isn't actually a jelly fish. they are siphonophore's is a colony of smaller animals the float the reproduction even the tentacles (which themselves can be divided up between digestion and attacking) are separate animals fused together.
It's basically a very small floating carnivorous city.
@@louiscypher4186 yeah i was gonna say the same thing but im 11minutes too late
@@louiscypher4186. That makes it even more wicked.
That's got to be the best pirate I've ever seen.
best part is that it's actually a colony of polyps/cells acting together
this thing is a literal, tiny, biological warship
Like seafeathers or pyrosomes.
Exactly but the weird part is they cant live as singular organism. They will die if we detach them.
nice so tiny
Cool
It’s so incredible, they throw out the gangplank, board the enemy vessel and steal the precious resources. Spot on metaphor.
The guy who added the Pirates of the Caribbean music to this, is a genius.
And alien sounds.

Except this is CGI isn't it? It doesn't look real
Or at least filmed in an aquarium or something
@@xant8344 what about it doesn’t look real? I didn’t notice anything weird about it. I think jellyfish just look really weird lol
😂😂🤣
The way the light reflects off of the tentacles make it seem like there is an actual electrical current travelling through them.
Oh I was fool then XD but it looks so electricityes tho
I thought It was doing that
It's the same as power lines/tram lines, the car headlights reflecting off them make it look electrified.
also like cgi
I thought the exact same thing. So cool
The cameraman deserves a raise of quadruple his annual salary. Incredible footage.
You know they wear wetsuits
Huh? Just taking a video of unmoving creature that float on the sea? I can do that. He of course at the safest distance. And he also can swim well. And he also use the diver suit.
I know we're amazed by this creature. But please don't overrate things..
Pay him £20000 a month
The really close up shots are probably done with a macro lens. As for most of the video you can tell the thing was superimposed CGI.
@@DBT1007 LMAO perasan jua eh
Jeez even for a nature documentary they went HAM on the sound effects...
To pretty decent effect. When you watch it in the context of the whole documentary, the effects really help to draw you in.

SLURP SLURP
Almost everyone who grew up in south Florida along the coast has a story about these things. For me I always knew not to mess with them but I had one drift up to me while surfing once and brushed up against several tentacles with my foot. My whole foot ached but my toes were the most painful. They were throbbing like someone had smacked them with a hammer. If you get it real bad the tentacles can actually break off while stuck to you. Instinctually you'll try to grab them with your hand to remove them and now your hands are stung as well.
dang bro, glad your okay though
Weird cuz im from SW FL and ive never heard of these things... Although i am the only guy ever in Florida to only have gone fishing a handful of times lol

After that noisy digestion I was expecting a loud burp.
The first time I visited Florida in the 80's, I saw one of those floating and I thought it was a blue balloon. Being a good ocean conservationist, I swam to pick it up and remove it. When I touched it, It was the worst pain that I have ever felt in my life. Amazing creature.
Ouch
But you touched the tentacles too?
How are you alive
@@aris1869 they don’t always kill
@@thejohnson2328 At the time, I didn't even know they had tentacles. It was a long time ago.
It's even more creepy when you realize the man o war is not a single organism, but a colony of organisms which combine to create one sinister plastic bag
Well same with you, we are jus colaboration of trilions of cells that evolved to be dependant on each other.
Go Man - The weird thing about that is that these trillions of cells in one human body only has 1 consciousness.
Like how??? I do believe in a soul but the physical brain is just a bunch of chemicals and electrical happenings, how can a physical stuff created non-physical stuff like Consciousness?
@@ThEsOuNdInYoU not the same, they are considered as single individuals cooperating, not fully codependent. And not made of the same cells. you can imagine them as the simbiotic process between 100+ different animals. Each tentacle, each organ. It's quite amazing

They are all over at Vero Beach, Florida. They wash up on the beach by the dozens as they are dying. If you step on one, it will "pop" like a balloon, as they are hollow inside. They can still sting you, even when they are dead. If you are barefoot, watch out!

i am so scared of the ocean and the darkness and the depth, NO videos about the ocean make me feel better in any way
David Attenborough could narrate someone taking a dump and make it seem insightful and epic
Taking a dump IS insightful, and epic.
Eddie Cactus I recall him already doing that in a video about a Sloth, it even showed him watching the Sloth at close range whilst it was taking the dump. So close he could have wiped for it

"Have you ever felt like a plastic bag"
Portuguese man o' war: :(
Drifting through the sea, wanting to sting ALL OF YEE
That's not your mom!
“Do you ever feel?”*
Do you ever feel
Like a plastic bag
Drifting through the sea
Wanting to start again
Do you ever feel
Feel so paper-thin
Like a jellyfish
One blow from caving in
Do you ever feel
Already buried deep
Six feet under
Screams but no one seems to hear you sting
Do you know that there’s
Still a chance for you
‘Cause there’s a spark in you
You just gotta
sting the fish
And let it die
Just own the seas
Like the
m o' war
‘Cause baby, you’re a jelly fish
Come on show them what you’re worth
Make them go, “Oh, oh, oh”
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you’re a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make them go, “Ouch, ouch, ouch”
You’re gonna kill them before they know
You don’t have to feel
Like a waste of space
You’re a man o' war
Cannot be replaced
If you only knew
What the tentacles hold
After a hurricane
Comes a feast of fish
Maybe the reason why
All the doors are closed
So you could open one
That leads you to the perfect fish
Like a lightning bolt
Your heart will glow
And when it’s time you know
You just gotta
sting the fish
And let it die
Just own the seas
Like the
m o' war
‘Cause baby, you’re a jellyfish
Come on show them what you’re worth
Make them go, “Ouch, ouch, ouch”
As you shoot across the sea
Baby, you’re a jellyfish
Come on let your poison burst
Make them go, “Ouch, ouch, ouch”
You’re gonna kill them before they know
Boom, boom, boom
Even deadlier than the fish, fish, fish
It’s always been inside of you, you, you
And now it’s time to let it through
‘Cause baby, you’re a jellyfish
Come on show them what you’re worth
Make them go, “Ouch, ouch, ouch”
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you’re a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make them go, “Ouch, ouch, ouch”
You’re gonna kill them before they know
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the fish, fish, fish
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the fish, fish, fish

" All we need now lads is a dozen barrels of rhum and a magical compass YARRR !"
Once I was on a snorkelling venture in the Bermuda Triangle (i was about 14) and the tour guides said to look out for a jellyfish that looks like a plastic bag floating on the water. They said it would be super rare and that they had never encountered one. After about 5 minutes in the water, somebody spotted the floating bag and we all came scrambling back to the boat. The scary part is how long their tentacles are and they don't even look that big from first glance
the soundeffects and visual is outstanding.. really on another level
I wonder what would happen if the air bag part got a hole in it.
It would woosh away at great speed
Don't float, maybe
And becomes a scavenger in the bottom of the sea
You mean... a hull breach
xclimatexcoldxx epic fart sounds
Actually it wouldn’t really matter since it’s a lot of tiny organisms together so i’m pretty sure it would just be unscathed. Not 100% sure tho

I was (indirectly) stung by one of these in Cuba. Even with no apparent contact, I had a very painful rash all over my body for more than a month afterward. Can't imagine how agonizing a direct sting must be.
The effect varies from person to person.
I was stung by it on my arm once when i was 15, my uncles washed it off with vinegar and hot compressed it for a day and it subsided on the next night.
@@ShadowFungus I poked what I thought was a plastic bag washed up on the beach. The next day, I had mosquito bite-like spots on my right hand. They spread up my right arm the next day, then down my left, to my legs, then eventually my entire body.
They kept multiplying in number for a week or two. Not long after arriving back in Canada & hitting the cold, they swelled to the size of marbles & my skin felt like it was on fire. It was the kind of pain that just makes you feel helpless cause painkillers can't even touch it.
Still not 100% sure if it was a man o' war, but in years of googling that's the only thing that even remotely resembles the thing I saw.

Imagine you’re just swimming in the ocean and this grabs your leg...
These are very common on Australian beaches and their stings are bad but mainly just a nuisance. Many wash up on beaches and kids run around popping them with their boards... (the top bit is only about an inch)
"oh no, the plastic bag is alive!!!"
Just like Joe from Australia says, They're also very common along the Gulf of of Mexico also. We''d do the same as kids on the beaches of Texas. We'd also get stung too. They hurt like hell, but we would always bring along a bottle of meat tenderiser-(from our kitchen spice cabinet) to put on the red raised marks to instantly take the pain away.. Not sure how it worked? But it does.. Works on Jellyfish stings too. *If someone has been stung so much that they have bad headache or throwing up, Take them to the hospital! .
why would i be randomly swimming in the oceam?
AAAAAAAAAAAAH
imagine all the prehistoric creatures we will never have a fossil record of. This dude looks crazy, what are the odds any of his kind will meet the perfect conditions to leave behind a fossil
@hafs reader my question is how tf you could write it from right to left
Interesting questiom yes i think i read somewhere jellysfish are extremely rare to form any kind of fossil if at all dje to tje nature of their being but i would be super cool to find out
It can happen, as it has happened with exceptional conditions
"dude"
Lol its actually not even a dude, its like a bunch of different animals that somehow combined to form one superorganism
Absolutely amazing stunning creature.
I love how all beautiful sea creatures are incredibly dangerous
