4:08 "Land of the giants"? That's deceptive. The jaguar is much smaller than African or Asian cats. The largest herbivore is a rodent. The caiman are significantly smaller on average than crocodiles or alligators. So putting that odd punchline in the narration over that Louisiana guitar sounds more like a sales pitch than reality.
And imagine - merely 10,000 years ago or so, in those same plains you would have found even bigger critters. Gomphotheres, giant armadillos, giant ground sloths, saber-toothed cats, rhino-like Toxodon, and more...
I’ve traveled to Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia, México, India, Middle East, and many other countries. *But the only other destination I want to experience is ride down the Amazon River (Pantaneal) during the rain season NOT WITH PROPELLERS but strictly WATER JETS because they can travel down extremely SHALLOW WATERS like the AMAZON RIVER. ONLY BECAUSE I WANT A DESTINATION OF SOLITUDE, so I can actually EXPERIENCE and ENJOY THE SURROUNDINGS without the immature nonsense.
Every Christian needs to pray for him . And pray for the government because they have gone to the dark side. My grandfather’s sacrifice is wasted on this country. I’m disgusted with the state of this country. Just glad I’m now old and won’t live too see the lose of our beautiful country. It will be a disaster. God bless you grandad you did your best but it’s all been a waste of life x
Well, the title is jus misleading, nobody wants to see a large rodent when you say "wanna see a giant animal?". With that type of music, you better show me a dragon or at the very least a live mammoth
I have watched loads of these BBC Wildlife programs and have found the the Narrator gets drowned out by the loud music and they have a habit of giving the job to posh powder puff voiced guys who are more suitable for reading kids stories.
With the music in the background I didn't know whether they in South America or the bayou of Louisiana 😂
Yeah, I don't think that music worked well for what they were doing.
Not at all suitable
The music was a bit over the top
Lol
The ONLY, the ONLY people who get the music right is the BBC. And got it right again, they did.
Like why using southern - everglades - rock, if this is south america?
@@blucat4 bot
@@lobomalsano Why not?
The metal slide guitar as backing music sounded incongruous.
Very disturbing!
I prefer sugar flute over the soundtrack for more accuracy.
I'm happy for you finally getting to use that word
@@breakneck777 Which word, The?.............;)
Also the weird colouration and slow mo. Seems like BBC aiming for a US audience.
3:33 Bird tryin' to get a capybara's attention for some reason.
It's picking parasites, I think.
Think about that for a second ...a 350 pound Jaguar, and it's all muscle.
It's not all muscle; that boy is well fed.
Yes but how many guinea pigs does it weigh?
These diverse species are a blessing for Brazil.
The background music is weird and annoying.
The ONLY, the ONLY people who get the music right is the BBC. And got it right again, they did.
This video was recorded almost 15 years ago.
Annoying

Aqui é Brasil!!! Um dos nossos riquíssimos biomas: Pantanal!! ❤
Make sure you keep it that way.
All swamps come standard with electric slide guitar sound effects
12 yrs old docu... the poor old Pantanal burnt to the bloody core just last year having suffered prolonged extreme drought
My country is incredible has many treasures: Pantanal,amazon Atlantic forest,caatinga
Pantanal is such a gorgeous region.
Why did they get the music from a cable bass fishing show, for the background?
The ONLY, the ONLY people who get the music right is the BBC. And got it right again, they did.

😂😂😂😂😂😂
This documentary is incredible! Nature's true wonders! 🌿🐾
The unexpected color change and riff was a lil psychedelic. Neat
It's like Skull Island but... Skull Inland? Imagine they had an undiscovered giant primate of some sort too 😂
Yes, giants... Even a snail, too. (together with anaconda)

You missed the point. It's not comparing tge jaguar to lions or tigers. They are comparing it to other jaguars around the world.
I liked the bgm...its unique for a bbc earth video👍🏻
So beautiful to see nature thriving like this.❤❤❤❤❤
Beautifully done! Breath-taking
Excellent
👌💯. Lots of nutrition in the swamp to feed the giants.
Wonderful place and fantastic creatures
And imagine - merely 10,000 years ago or so, in those same plains you would have found even bigger critters. Gomphotheres, giant armadillos, giant ground sloths, saber-toothed cats, rhino-like Toxodon, and more...
Bbc, please try to get local music next time. Pantanal is a sertanejo kind of music land, you’re welcome
I very much enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Thanks. ✌🏻👊🏼
Brilliant! Love it. 🙂
It's much different without Sir David Attenborough narrating.
Who?
When he says Pantanal those guitar...😅😅😂😂
Thank for info
RIP youtube's compression algorithm.
2:46 anyone notice the big shell?
"Everything here is BiG" 😂 its way more than BIG😂
I love the weekends. Your on TV 📺 thank you ❤❤❤
The music rocked! 🤘
Looks like the biggest snail in the world too
R.I.P. Pantanal
Nice documentary

wow❤
Useful information
Wow 👍
बहुत सुंदर
It's a miss information that anacondas can grow up 9 m long. The largest one measures 6,45 meters.
"These elusive cats are so numerous people travel from around the world to see them"😮
peaceful🌸🌸
This video I think was recorded like almost 15 years ago. It seems old and outdated.
When the Anaconda came first into sight .. was that a giant snail on the bottom screen?
It was an interesting video but the music really distracted from it.
Looks like our victory falls in Zambia
KOOL!
Was that a salmon moving up the cascade? Was that a black bear waiting to catch it?? Are not both North American species???
There are salmon and bear species all over the world.
@@clueless4085 I did not use the plural. At 1:06, I do not think that a Spectacled bear, the only species in South America.
@@lauxmyth I think you misunderstood what I was saying.
Great 👌👌
दुख ये है कि हम इस प्लैनेट की सबसे खूबसूरत चीजों को खो रहें हैं 😢
The background score is too loud. It masks the actual narration.
この川を無事に登り切った鮭は、もれなく龍になれそう🤗💕
❤❤❤
Step aside Texas, there's a new contender for "bigger in ________" place
So basically the big rat is everyones food.
What's the music? Pleeeeaaase!
everything big there, including me!😏
At least put music from South America.
The incipit seems the incipit of "Prometheus" by Ridley Scott
Eeeehh Brasilsao

❤️❤️❤️🇧🇷❤️❤️❤️
This music is really hard to take
3:19 that's a big boi here
I think Burmese Python is the largest
And land of Giants perhaps wouldn't that be Africa?
Reticulated Python is the longest. But Green Anaconda is the largest, because they are considerably heavier.
@@prabirchoudhury8375 Oh
Didn't see any giants 😕.
They should build a Walmart there
Is this where Lizzie is from?
This is nature documentary NOT ROCK CONCERT.
A bear eating salmon at 1:06? There are no bears in the Pantanal.
Sushmita: turn that flippin music off !!!
سبحان الله
2:50 the biggest snake? What about that snail shell the size of the snakes head?
So if a beaver was a Pokemon would it be grass/water type or normal/water type ? 🤔
We already have one-- Bibarel. It's Normal/Water.
OMG! Is that a giant snail beside the anaconda? 😱
Yes snail is the main source of food for many animals in the Pantanal.
Absolutely! Big animals, need Big 🐌 appetizers. Amazonian Escargot! 😁
❤❤😊😊
The music was horrible and distracting
The ONLY, the ONLY people who get the music right is the BBC. And got it right again, they did.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Incredible footage. Overly dramatized and frankly dumb script with maybe 4 useful sentences - they even managed to make it about humans.
The Pantanal is burnt out. As it dries out, it is inevitably losing its ability to function as a wetland and is at risk of becoming a savannah.
😊สวัสดีครับ
Word on the street is everyone gets their steroids from Alfredo at the corner or Riverbend and Wetland Avenue.
Everything is bigger in America
😍😍😍🌴🌀🌀🌀🌬️🌬️🌬️🌬️🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
Video was great until that awful music halfway through.
The background 'guitar' is definitely annoying and drowns out the narrator.
largest no. of human crocodile in the world also found in america.
Uh.., 🤔 FYI? Crocodile's 🐊 are a different species of reptile than a Cayman. For ur information only.
The music reminded me of Ted Nugent.
If exaggerating was a video 👆🏻
The caiman is really small for a crocodilian. So not everything there is a giant
Totally spoilt by irritating music
