9 Sperm Whales Sleep Standing Up
For a long time, we all used to think that whales slept in the same pattern as dolphins, with one eye open and half their brain activated, but in 2013 scientists discovered a pod of sperm whales who slept in a very bizarre way. This pod just off the coast of Chile slept with their bodies completely vertical, gently bobbing near the surface of the water. When scientists got into the middle of the ominous pod and nudged one of the whales, prompting them all to wake up and swim away.
8 Snorkeller and Sperm Whale
One brave, stupid, or whale-whispering snorkeller went head to head with this sperm whale off the coast of the Caribbean. He literally touched his head to the head of a massive, 60-foot whale. The size advantage of whales over snorkelers is obvious, but they can be friendly and sociable if caught in a good move! However, it’s likely that it wouldn’t have done anything violent even if it wasn’t in a playful mood.
7 Rare White Humpback Whale
Photographer Jenny Dean was on vacation when she happened to catch a photo of the incredibly rare white humpback whale in North Queensland. This whale might be Migaloo, the name of what many think to be the only white humpback whale in the world. This was truly a once in a lifetime event, and these photographs are really rare considering the fact that Migaloo was moving incredibly fast and so was the vessel Jenny Dean was traveling on.
6 Beluga Whale doing Art
The Beluga whales at Hakkeijima Sea Paradise aquarium in Yokohama show off their artistic talent. The belugas use specially made paintbrushes to that they can hold in their mouths. Trainers stand nearby and dip their paintbrushes into paint, then guide the whales into making art. Three belugas on a cycle every weekday and twice every day of the weekend show off their talent at the aquarium.
5 Whales go Birding
Humpback whales primarily feed on krill, which float close to the surface of the water. Pelicans dive low to feed on those same krill. So, when the humpback jumps up to catch a bite, it can sometimes end unfortunately for the pelican as it gets caught in the jaws of the whale. It is not an extremely uncommon event, but it is not usually captured so well on camera. Kate Cummings caught this moment when a pelican made the accident of mistiming a divebomb and landed right into the mouth of a whale.
4 Giant Beached Whale
This bloated, giant blue whale washed up ashore at Trout River, a small town in Newfoundland. For a while, local officials were worried that the bloated corpse would explode since it seems to be ballooning already. The incredible sight attracted locals to get up close and personal with the animal for a while, as moving giant whales off of shores is incredibly hard to do. The whale measured a whopping 81 feet in length and many towns don’t have the resources to move something so big. If left alone for too long, the gasses inside might build up and cause an explosion.
3 Killer Whales Eating Live Sharks
In extremely rare footage captured by a drone in Monterey Bay, California, we saw two adult female killer whales feeding on live baby sharks. When Slater Moore on a whale watching boat traveled near a pod of killer whales when he noticed they were eating something, so he flew his drone over to catch the scene. They were feeding on seven-gill sharks, a rare deep water shark that’s a part of the cow shark family.
2 Whale Photobomb
Adrenaline Junkie Will Rosner was two months into his sailing trip across the Pacific Ocean and French Polynesia when he caught this moment on camera while snorkeling. The 24-year-old was diving in Tonga when he accidentally encountered a pod of whales and when he went to take a selfie, one of those friendly humpback whales photobombed him. The whale burst from the water just yards behind him, creating an incredible photo. Rosner reportedly swam with the pod of six whales for more than six hours.
1 Whale Pod Rising
Whales regularly surface from underwater to take a breath of air, but it can still look pretty dramatic. Like this pod of whales that surfaced at the same time to take in a deep breath. When a bunch come up at the same time, it can look like a dramatic scene of otherworldly aliens arriving on earth.
Whales are majestic creatures.... Nature is amazing and humanity must respect
kanishq ruhil Whales and Elephants are like gods dude they are special
so dramitic
I am afraid of whales :(
We all deserve respect
Sand summerstone don’t be afraid they will be much more afraid of you then they are of them also I have seen tons of whales
In the last photo the whales aren't coming up for air, they breathe through their blow hole which is on top of their head. These 'baleen' whales are feeding!
Yes, probably after releasing a spiral bubble net. I've seen this behavior off of Gloucester, MA.
rbraxley lucky lucky you, envious!
Carol Coates
Yeah??
Carol Coates, Correct! It's Krill tiiiiime!🐋🐳
You should take the beluga whale painting out of this video! Those are not made to be in aquarium and definitely not painting for our entertainment!!!
True!!!!
The photo of the beluga "doing art" is just wrong for myriad reasons.
That was my first thought as well when I saw this beautiful majestic being, reduced in dignity for some dumb human trick! Ugh
Beluga whales are just albinooooooo not biiggggggg
This video has problems. The belugas 'painting' were undoubtedly mistreated in being trained to 'paint' (elephants undergo horrible tortures to be trained to 'paint' and 'play' piano).
And in the final photo, whales don't rise up like that to breathe, they rise up like that to feed on krill.
Eric Brooks the beluga's eye looked sad to me too.
i also notice that thing and i feel sad about them.
*Edit:* So, I had no idea I actually made this comment. I mean, I knew I had made some lame comments back when I was the typical angry procap so, yeah... This is an old comment. Do I stand behind it? Meh. It's far too over simplified and poorly worded for my liking. Also, I'm not gonna respond to any of the replies I've gotten, because I know for a fact that it'll cause a debate that leads absolutely nowhere (especially when someone's whole argument is based on "let me put YOU in a cage and see how YOU like it"). I've been focusing more on learning about this complex subject and forming my own opinions about it. I'm not saying this to make antis look like they can't form a good educated argument. Many procaps have been guilty of the same thing too, but the vast majority of comment thread I've seen seem to mostly involve the less educated anticaps. I don't know why. Maybe it's the same situation going on with young SeaWorld junkies, where they just impulse respond to people? (I'm not saying mine wasn't an impulse response, btw; it was.)
Eric Brooks You can't abuse a beluga in the same way that you can abuse an elephant. To say "undoubtedly" is ridiculous since you don't even know where the animal lives, nor do you know the animal. You just make that assumption based on the fact that in some places, elephants are trained through the use of abuse. Just because certain individuals were abused, doesn't mean all of them are abused.
Yes thank you!! Life in captivity is torturous for them. And their "training" is abuse and starvation that they bang into walls constantly in desperation and frustration as they have human like emotions. Ever notice most of not all in captivity have scarred noses, and those in their natural habitat do not..
Sadly many will still support this, and make the Battle even harder, as they're incapable of seeing that being in captivity is not in any way shape or form justifiably ok.
@@namelessanonymous2090
That's been proven wrong. They're abused several ways besides being held in captivity. If you only knew..
You really need to.. but that's your choice.
I have heard that when a pod all surfaces simultaneously, they have encircled a school of fish and are feeding on it. They may take a breath, as well, but, HELLO, they don't breath through their mouths.
Quite right Lynn Lobliner
the last picture is whales feeding not coming up for air
There's so much information in this video it makes me wonder if it's Japanese propaganda smh
Beautiful! Whales are remarkable animals and they need our protection! They are just recovering from the evil people who used to slaughter them. I hope I'm long gone before they go extinct.
Thank You for sharing this beautiful video! Protection a must because extinction is forever.
Whale pod rising literally looks like creatures from another planet majestic AF
whale done !
Enderman Narwhal
Cancelled
I think it was on Porpoise....
Satyandyka Adirajasa corny lol, but clever 😊
I think the last image is actually the whales feeding, coming up in the center of a ring of bubbles other whales have blown to concentrate prey
That's exactly correct. They're all getting a big mouthful of krill.
They are feeding on herring not krill in this location. I studied and photographed them for 20 years in this region. Their bubble net feeding is different for krill and less coordinated and close like it is in this photo, which was taken in the Chatham Strait region of Southeast Alaska. They usually feed on krill lower down in Frederick Sound. This photo is a photoshopped fake. The boat has been added.
Thank you for clearing that up! Always good to get info straight from the scientists who study these guys.
Dartford crossing
#11 I think whales jump just for fun because they are happy :)
What you are doing Daisy Lea, is called projecting.
no patricia. what YOU are doing is projecting
I also think they are showing off--
@@patriciam.kimbrell2043 no i think its true watch this and look at the 3:40 mark...ruclips.net/video/XOK1T4JbYVc/видео.html
Last photo.... that man & his son are just chillin like it's no big deal, that would not be me at that moment in time.
Incredible sight. Protect the whales
Killer whales are in fact not whales but dolphin family
M. Sordam same thing
Not really but ok 😊
M. Sordam Dolphins is small whales. They have breathing holes on the top as whales.
M. Sordam Dolphins are toothed whales, so technically killer whales are whales. They belong to the dolphin family, but they're still whales.
Dolphins are toothed whales.
I don't care WHAT they were doing, they are awesome creatures!! Thanks
The beluga whale is actually closer to the dolphin specimen, but its still really cute!
yay whale helps dolphin
and did it porpoise-ly
😂😂😂😂
Finally a thumbnail that isn't clickbait
Love #4 how you pronounced Newfoundland ... you pronounced it as New Finland its actually pronounced new found land Newfoundland !! It’s so awesome hearing people who aren’t from here pronounce it .. btw I’m from St. John’s Newfoundland
Everyone in Canada simultaneously cringed when he pronounced Newfoundland like that.
This guy is clearly not the sharpest tool in the box.
How do you pronounce Newfoundland? I honestly don't know, since I'm a brazilian, but I'd like to know so I don't sound stupid lol
I Live there and I thought it was cute.
Milena Karla new found land say that together he pronounced it newfinland it’s Newfoundland ... I’m from here
Some bull crap mixed in here... #1 is a well know photoshop ( and I suspect some of the others are!) # 11 is definitely NOT Quebec as I have driven that boat! (It's out of Victoria, British Columbia)
“Middle of the ocean”....with land plainly in view in the background.
What do you expect from a vid filled with endless misinformation..
WOW THAT LAST SHOT LOOKS LIKE A FINAL FANTASY BOSS FIGHT!
SPEAK UP!!!!! I have great hearing and I could barely hear you. If you are loud we can reduce the volume but we can only turn up the volume so much
Imagine if you were on your little boat and a big ass whale flips it unintentionally (or intentionally)with its tail!
in the last picture they are feeding, not coming up for air all at the same time
the last was outstanding
Thx for that sound warning when the video ended i had my volume up and i jumped when that noise came up
4:09 y she is so happy about the bleached whale >:(
Brononymous Rival *beached
Also she's just smiling out of posible disbelief. I can imagine the excitement that one would feel if they saw the world's largest animal up close (dead or alive).
All these pictures are incredible - especially the white whale, that one's amazing, I've never seen even a picture of an all white whale, just beautiful....
The whale doing art makes me very sad. That just seems wrong on so many levels.
It is. Glad to finally see someone who gets it. Life in capitvity-is a nightmare most people are not aware of. And me er will be to not see it is wrong regardless and arts n crafts makes a great life for them.. so depressing. Hopefully it will be ok we soon
I agree ☹️
Awesome video
Is no one gonna talk bout how at 4:01 there's a bird shaped barnacle or w.e on the 🐳
sperm whales clicking sound is so loud,That you could overheat,and get your eardrum destroyed or Die,But there nice creatures,And there very intelligence,Like They can have compassion and love and they have a very unique language,That's more complex than ours.
Dude cmon man what’s up with the ending literally freaked me out after you said aliens too that loud noise man lol.
The same videos almost in every whale video 😍😍
I have a great whale photo. It is my sisters high school portrait. It is awesome, she is so big it is an areal shot.
4:42
Orcas are actually not whales, they are dolphins. The largest type of dolphin.
I kayak I don't want to get that close to nothing that large in the water 😍
I would cry, not out of happiness but terror. I’m terrified of deep water.
The last one is called bubble feeding. Where they blow bubble to scare fish to the surface then they lunge up from below and swallow the fish
in santa cruz, ca, a kayaker was almost eaten as a large whale thrusted out of the surface while feeding. You can see in the picture the whale coming out seconds after hundred of small fish started jump in out to avoid this whale. It was in the news around 5 years ago.
The last one reminds me of Dune. He is the quizart hadarackh!
The last photo and the last makes me shocked! Btw nice vid..
Omgg The last photo of the whales above the water of them "breathing" that is wrong they actually do that to feed themselves on krill so please do your reasearch *AND STAY IN school kids*
Learnt more out of school
Carousel feeding your right. Orcas, humpbacks and sealions all work together when carousel feeding.. this video is proven to be 90% misinformation.
shouldn't include poor beings trapped or held captive at aquariums and taught to make art...poor call advertising for that...
Great images/compilation. Where,when, nice info. Ur hypothesis,.. thx 4 posting
Rip headphone users at the end
Last one is amazing.
The whale pod rising is not a pod rising to breathe.
It is "bubble netting". A highly sophisticated feeding behaviour often practiced by Alaskan humpbacks.
I live in Newfoundland the whales here are beautiful
Whales breach for sheer joy as well!!
In the last photo, the guy in the boat with a fishing rod looks out- fished!
Number 5 is absolutly amazing!!
Already said below but... the last whales were feeding... they blow bubbles around the fish then all swim up the middle together and collect the confused animals....
Cool video!
Really good compilation.
Those humpbacks at the end were clearly feeding. They don't breathe through their mouths.
just stunning.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I don't know why I am here
And so do you!
Nice video
Nice video, but I got two comments on it :) For one, I would have left out the painting whales, I'm pretty sure the whales aren't having nearly as much fun with it as the paying customers are, and second, after your number 1, it's all nice and zen and suddenly WHAM COMMERCIAL ROBOT HANDS AND WEIRD LOUD SOUND. Nearly gave me a heart attack. xD
So if you could make that transition slightly less stressful for the next video, thanks :P
The last picture of the whales the narrator says that the whales are taking a breath. When they surface like that they are feasting not taking a breath.
Got news for you, those are Humpbacks NOT Blue whales!!
and sometimes some whales get beached
Beautiful photos and cute voiced man.
Amazing pictures i have never seen this kind of pictures for whale
Great video amazing whales
pushing photography to the edge
Whales breach like that to help,remove parasites from their skin
Your outro scared the shit out of me!
This was wonderful.
So memorizing, i would love to see a whale in person 😍😍
Wow! Get your sound levels sorted!
A few of the descriptions were wrong, particularly the last one stating the whales were rising in order to breath. Obviously they are FEEDING - not breathing!!!
When I die, I hope people are so impressed by my corpse that they stand in front of me, smile, and take photos.
Am I the only 1 terrified of whales
Don't be - they are truly gentle giants. And some are very curious of us. A mother and her calf swam up to our tour boat off the coast of Argentina and allowed us to pet them repeatedly. It was truly priceless. I was shocked how friendly they were with us (they could have easily torn us to shreds, but that's not their way I suppose).
Mother nature at her finest.
Sam Burns, Yeah! "Truly gentle" enough to CRACKKKKK🔨🐣 your skull or spine, with and without intent! He's safer being terrified!
Fox43656 Animal Jam, No! They're my favourite animals, EVERRRRR! However, I am VERY terrified of them!
Lol btw im a girl
Fox43656 Animal Jam, Funny how I was about to edit my comment to "he's/she's safer being terrified", then I said "fuck it"! My apologies, doll!😚
I liked this video and I don't care if it contains a few piddly mistakes.
Number 1 is a group feeding, not breathing
1:30 that's the polar bear barge that is always pulled up on the beach in Homer, Alaska
if you wonder why whales jump out the water and go back in its because whales breath air so the hole on their head is to breath air
Kind Regards.
That last one bummed me out. You have to have known those whales were not coming up for air like that, since you already remarked on feeding whales accidentally catching a bird... they were feeding. Maybe do a little fact checking before putting out a video?
Love the first photo
Amazing video. Thank you.
The whales at the last where eating plankton not taking a breath
Number. 4!! Newfoundland that is where I'm from. I remember when that happened. We get a lot of whales here in the summertime.
Hi!Can I download the photos from somewhere?Especially the first place,in a HD format.Thanx
So beautiful!
Whale that’s awesome
WHY would you have a picture of a dead whale? That's not an incredible picture, it's an incredible shame and all those idiots taking pictures with it are creeps!
#1 the whales are not taking a breath of air. This photo is a feeding lung
Not sure you have permission to use the image of the whale watching boat with breaching humpback whale? ALSO that image was taken near Victoria BC A LONG WAY FROM QUEBEC!!!
Brett Soberg Who cares about permission to use a picture of a whale watching boat ? It isn't that deep bro !! You must be XTREMELY BORED !!
Nature blissfulness shows here
Dangerous to but they are awesome no words to say. Let blossom like them
Yeaaa let's kayak in the middle of the ocean. And touch head to head. Idiots. But I love whales. So beautiful. Love these videos.
Yeah I like this whales videos😂
Killer whales are actually dolphins
the day a whale comes near my boat is the day I will sprout wings and fly, or run on water,,,,,, hell to the no ,,,,,,,,,beautiful but hell no,,,nope.
jamie marie ikr!!
jamie marie
jamie marie lol!!!🤣😂😂
jamie marie lmao right!
Ughh. Sadly you've been very misinformed about whales.. the fact that this video is proven 90% misinformation doesn't help. Whales are actually very gentle with humans and actually very over protective. (Sonar detection/Geo location) . Not one whale has ever harmed anyone (fact) but have saved many/all humans lives they've come in contact with. Please look into it, bc this misinformation like all, is unjustifiably villifing whales.
Fantastic!
the whales are trying to tell people something is wrong. the water or the surface of the ocean. animals try to get our attention but people don't always realize it.
Amazing, but a little terrible for me.
in you are not aware...you audio is off a bit, in that your not staying the same distance from the mic and/or not keeping your voice at the a consistent volume. also the sound effects are far louder than your voice or background music. Not just on this vid. i've watch a few.
otherwise its all good sir, thank you much, very cool.
