Welcome back to the second episode of our new format for Bizarre Beasts, which we're calling Season Zero. Over the next year, we will be remastering episodes of Bizarre Beasts that were originally created for Vlogbrothers.
Revisit the Red Handfish with us as we (once again) confront the question, why is this fish walking?
A special thanks to the Handfish Conservation Project / Rick Stuart-Smith, for so much wonderful Handfish footage. If you'd like to learn more about the Handfish Conservation Project, you can visit their website here: handfish.org.au/

They're rare because they keep getting caught red handed.
Ugh, groan
Ba dum dum, tiss 🥁😂
It walks to confound scientists and nothing more than that and getting social media views.
damn even fish chasing clout these days, smh
The rarest fish on earth - THAT WE KNOW OF
Is it weird that my first thought was of Lord Byron? "She walks in beauty like the night of cloudless climes and starry skies, and all that's best of dark and bright meet in her aspect and in her eyes."
i was dying for an update on the smooth handfish. thanks hank and crew
Oh NO! Save the Handfish! Keep Australia weird!
Best fish vid you'll see today, hands down.
If fish are flying, then humans are their aliens
I got my pin set today! The Mola Mola is my favourite but I love the iridescent effect on the Portuguese Man O'War.
I like man'o war and Mola Mola are so weird
Sink or swim? Ok, I‘ll sink!
I love Hank Green
Gotta be one of my favorite fish. Love telling people about the hand fish
I love you red hand fish! I'm really glad someone cares for them
when you were listing walking fish, i was hoping you'd mention the cave angel fish, one of my favourite animals and, it occurs to me, a potential bizarre beast candidate?
Sticking your face under a hand dryer is actually so gross after learning how much bacteria is in those things
I still love this format of double Hank so much
Would be cool if these fish are the ancestors of the second wave of tetrapods.
God do I love these videos. They are so wonderful! I also wonder if there is any way to get just a selection of the old pins (and the new mola-mola/Sunfish)? I have most of the original set bit I'm short just a few.
Maybe they got tired of swimming. I do.
If they’re in the angler fish family, then they must be related to the red-lipped batfish, which Animalogic just covered. Those are also walking fish that can barely swim, but they are contenders for “ugliest fish”. And they have beards.
I really want the next Bizarre Beasts yo feature ruffs and their three types of male birds
Yers, both known unknowns and unknown unknowns.
Nearly missed this one as I was scrolling through my subs catching up because the ones I've seen have a red bar across the top. Took me a while to realize that the thumbnail for this video didn't have a red bar across the bottom, but a red FRAME around the whole thing... phew!! Now to enjoy the vid... 😁
who wouldn't want a pet fish that has hands if anything this fish has a very profitable future
I really wish you could buy the season 0 pins individually!
This is where you get fish fingers😂😂
I wish I'd become a scientist.
Oh no. Bizarre Beasts has decided that to do 90 Day Fiancé - The Other Way: Pillow Talk recaps.
Well, swimming does make you an obvious target, so it makes sense to avoid swimming if you and your food live on the ocean floor. But the ability to evade predators by swimming, even for short bursts, should be enough to keep swimming around. The only thing I can thing is that there's diseases in fish that can mess with swim bladders, right? I know that's a thing in freshwater fish, but I'm not familiar enough with saltwater. But if there are diseases that cause saltwater fish to float or have buoyancy issues due to the swim bladder, that could be evolutionary pressure to lose the organ entirely. Fish that float when sick would be easy targets for predators.
The other thing to consider is that there might not be ongoing pressure to avoid swimming. Potentially one event/issue wiped out swimming handfish back when the species were just starting out. Evolution is a messy, wild, absurd process that doesn't lead to the perfect organism.
They're walking because they're not in a hurry and don't need to run, silly.
I love this fish! I have painted in in my collection of "stupid looking fish" sticker sheet project :D Im sad that its so close to extintion ):
The answer to handfish, why? is simple: Australia. I say this as an Aussie who lives in the population area of handfish
If I could make a request or a suggestion to modify the bizarre beasts pin club subscription?
I love to put my pins up on my pin board, but it can be difficult sometimes to remember which pin belongs to which card. Would it be possible to maybe add a little printed version of the pin image onto the pin cards? I know I at least would very much appreciate that
Its still a fish 😂
you may not like it.but deep sea anglers are the most agile amongst frogfishes
Of course they are from Australia! All the world's most bizarre creatures live there!
But do fish exist?
If they do, whales are fish and so are we.
taxonomic categories are vague and weird. the word "fish" in common parlance just means "animal which lives primarily or wholly in water, or which follows a bilaterally symmetrical finned bodyplan." taxonomically its more specific but its kind of irrelevant
No Such Thing As a Fish is my favourite podcast.
I love them♥️
More like this. I miss the straight up science from your channels.
"Air is a fluid" oh boy, here come the comments 😅
That's kind of a broad definition, but, okay.
Jumping dimension is funny zero
Huh, 5:46 am post
Does anyone know if there's any bipedalism going among fishes?
Still not as rare or bizarre as the Babelfish.
is it extinct? not sure, havent looked hard enough. why doesnt it swim? see question 1
I thought this was on the rarest fish in the world, the Devil's Hole pupfish. Clickbait...
It's not as if you research or write any of this. You just read stuff that underpaid contractors create. You're not 'wrong' any more than you are ever 'right'.
Season 0 was all researched and written by Hank as it was originally posted on vlogbrothers :) Hank also does write episodes of Scishow and other complexly shows. I can’t comment on how well paid the other writers for Complexly shows are but their employee retention rate is pretty good! They’ve had writers/editors/producers working there for years, So they must be doing something right !:)
The babies immediately sinking to the bottom really got me 😂
I'm betting they walk because that negates the need for a swim bladder. Similar energy as swimming, given where they are in the sea, just as much food, but they save a lot of biological resources by eliminating their swim bladders; not just the organ itself but the proteins coding for it and the blood vessels and nerves maintaining it.
A swim bladder doesn't seem that energy intensive. It is a *relatively* simple and passive organ.
@@brooklyna007 Even if it's only 5% total of a creature's anatomy, organ itself and the biological infrastructure to grow and maintain it (other animals have considerably larger ones by the way), then that means you get an extra creature's worth of material for every 20 you make.
Not just the energy to keep it, but the biological energy, the carbon credits if you like, to have it part of the production in the first place.
@@jansenart0 i feel like adapting for something like that requires a niche where food is especially rare
@@theshuman100 Marine snow isn't especially rare on the sea floor, but finding a mate and surviving to reproductive age is. It's just a matter of diverting genetic resources to where they can best serve the propagation of DNA, whatever sequence that may be at the time.
As a gardener when you talked about the babies just falling to the ground my very first thought was to pair them with corn
??
@@YunxiaoChu
The corn cobs are high up in the air, and when kernels fall out of them, they just go straight down.
Hank, it's a real pleasure to see you in such great shape. Congratulations!
A recommendation for a Bizarre Beast is the Devil's Hole Pupfish. They're also in the running for rarest fish in the world. They're very weird!
I also had the realization once, that fish are "flying in the water". I thought I was smart.
You were smart, just not uniquely so.
Family Feud did a catergory on that
So do penguins.
for me the epaulette shark is adorable, who knows it together with the mudskipper, could be the prototype of a new lineage of land animals.
You should send Mola Mola pins to everyone (like my husband) who already has season 0 pins. Let us complete the set without having to buy them all again!
Genuine question: with all the edits and revisions, why don’t you just re-record the entire video rather than re-editing it?
/Asking out of curiosity, not judgement
I have no idea, but my guess is that they do all their research for a whole season of Bizarre Beasts in a certain time frame before recording all the episodes, but this year it all got disrupted by Hank's cancer diagnostic and treatment, so they probably had enough time to add some new or updated facts about animals they already covered, instead of presenting a completely new set of facts from a whole new batch of animals. Also, I guess it gave them the excuse to put that whole first season more in line with the rest of the show in terms of visual presentation, pin sets, etc.
@@Alfonso162008 ohh that’s a fair take. I didn’t realize Hank had health things going on, def makes sense they’d keep the rerecord time down to a minimum.
Thx for the context:)
@@tuckerdidit42 You're welcome 😊I always assume that people follow Hank or his brother on Vlogbrothers or their social media, that's why I didn't give much detail about his cancer.
THANK YOU!!! So many documenting "professionals" claim they can't swim yet they just cut off the portal of the film that shows them swimming. Thank you for actually stating they do swim just not well.
Aww dang! I really wanted to get the Season Zero pin set, but $120 is WAAAY too steep for some pins. And the Mola Mola one is adorable too!
I mean... $10 a pin is p reasonable. Like it takes someone time to make and package those. $10 an hour is kinda crappy tbh
Yeah it's actually cheaper than the pin club, our stupid monkey brains are just better at justifying smaller amounts spreadout over a longer period of time than one lump sum even if the result is the same (or better) lol.
Houting is too an extinct fish, hunted to exticntion by the dutch
what is killing the handfish
See that bird ... They were once fish
great video, thanks
They're so cute
What? So the ICUN doesn't even classify Megalodon as extinct?
I think the IUCN focuses on modern species. Prehistoric species technically don't have an IUCN status.
If sharks are fish and ray finned fish are fish then TETRAPODS INCLUDING US ARE FISH!!! THEREFORE Walking is common among fish!!!
"almost" upsettingly?
ALMOST???
5:20
"This is really important:
...We do not know almost everything....
We feel like we do because we have a tremendous bias toward knowing things that are known because of how we cannot know the things that are unknown..." 🤯

The "amazing astounding facts from the natural world, every one of...[them is]...something that was discovered or figured out by a person - by people - the most bizarre of beasts."
👏🤓👏

Love the updates! Does this make us the handfish of the land?
Bugs wings probably evolved from Gills, hank.
oh I love them
"Data Deficient" is the excuse kids make about Megalodon.
Could they have evolved from something that walks, like a crab or lobster?
What happened with the project to help the red handfish population since the first vid??
is the pin Banner coming back? we wanted the pin banner please?
Hey Hank, you look great!
A weird Australian fish, how unsurprising. Aussie is full of unusual animals, both in and out of water.
He forgot frogs and salamanders.
Beautiful creatures 🤞🤞🤞
It's thought that a Tasmanian species of hand fish is extinct
Well with your air analogy they don't swim like we dont fly 😂
I knew it was gonna be from Australia.
These fish are walking because…. “It’s a trap!”
Would you rather come across handsy fish or fishy hands?
Might have to rewatch season 0
Oh i heard about that pokemon
Will those of use who have been here since Season Zero and already got all the OG pins be able to get the mola mola?
Its good to see hanks again😅
❤
Why? Because it can! LOL!
They really are fascinating critters, for sure. And I'm happy to see Hank looking so fit and happy again, too. So thanks, BB, on both counts!
Okay these things are sooooo cute.
