Flying Fish Picked Off From Above And Below | The Hunt | BBC Earth 

I think the flying fish has all the rights to say life is unfair.

Poor guys, hunted from below and above. They flew so beautifully.

These cameramen (or women) deserve awards for what they have captured on film. Literally incredible!

Flying Fish: "I am free!" Eagle: "Free food!"

Predators: *exist* Flying fish: "You won't let me swim, you won't let me fly"

Flying fish: "wind of freedom, fly me to safety!" Frigate Bird: "wow, speedy meal delivery on the wing!"

Bros were like ‘imma evolve wings to help me survive from these predators in the liquid’ just to be an easy meal for birds

They flew very beautifully, like a bird. It's interesting to see their mechanism of flight and dive.

Man : life is really rough Flying fish : wanna swap with me?

Can you imagine escaping prison only to realize that you accidentally dug a tunnel into another prison

0:22 They really have a way of making nature look and feel so gorgeous

That was sad :( What a stressful life these poor little amazing guys lead.

Such incredible fish that have ability to create themselves extra predator.

If you're having a bad day, just remember you could have been a flying fish.

This just became one of the most iconic shots in the Planet Earth series.

So sad they have so much predators. What beautiful creatures. The animals in the ocean really adopt not by the environment but by the predators.

The most toughest example of life I had ever seen before.

That moment when you realized you’ve become emotionally invested in the survival of fish

Nomesh sir😂

Imagine if they evolved for long distance and evasive flight but had to dive occasionally to breathe. Becoming a counterpart to mammalian sea animals who have to surface to take a breath.

This fish is the most absurdly science-fiction looking thing, but is also beautiful

Better than 99% blockbuster movies I watched.

pw students attendence here

I can't be the only one who just discovered that fish can fly with wings

Man i wish they showed one getting away at the end. I need a protagonist.

Flyingfish: Why are we here just to suffer?

سبحان الله العظيم الخالق البارئ المصور الذي خلق كل شيء فأحسن خلقه

Nomesh sir gang like❤😂

Imagine evolving for thousands of years to escape one predator just to become the perfect prey to the next predator. I can’t imagine being alive just to be eaten

When two teachers of different subject decide to take test on the same day.

😢Poor lil flying fishies! 🐟 they glide in the air so majestically!❤

NOMESH SIR ZINDABAAD

This has to be the best example of “damned if you do damned if you don’t”

i've never felt more profoundly unsafe and anxious in my entire life

I love nature shows, and The Hunt is one of if not the best ones out there, and this is honestly one of the best segments I've ever seen.

Subhan Allah ❤ Alhamdulillah ❤ Allah u Akbar ❤

Flying fish has a good reason to say life is unfair....

2:39 that fish is a real legend

سبحان الله وبحمده

Damn bro is dodging enemies from above and below, and he still never gave up. Bro got that dogfish in em 💯

If the flying fish doesn’t give up, why would you!

It's amazing how fish, reptiles, mammals, insects, and even some plant seeds, all figured out how to fly independently.

Those flyin fish 🐟 are so cool. They don't flap their fins

This is some of the most incredible natural footage I've seen

Next evolution for the flying fish: teleport

Everyone: talking about the fish Me: how did they get such cinematic camera angles and close ups

0:49 Amazing shot.

I thought life was really unfair to me, until I met the flying fish 😂

Poor fish, two different types of hunters at the same time.

Steven Price: how epic music do u want for these flying fishes? Producer: yes

I didn’t think they actually glided. That’s awesome!

海から逃げるように空に逃げてもダメで泣きました

Just wait till the sharks start flying lmao.

Those captures from BBC and the way the perfection of nature is artistically and cinematographically shown... It's outstanding 😍

سبحان الخالق المبدع

If there was one animal I wouldn’t want to come back as or be born as. It would definitely 100% be a Flying fish.

That's what happen if a ship full of RedBull sinks in the ocean.

it's not a win win situation, it's a die die situation

man’s been drinking his redbull 🫡🫡🫡

This is such an insanely beautiful thing to witness. I love mother nature and all it's creations.. exactly why we must take care of this planet!

It makes me sad to think of what must be going on in their heads as they realise they have nowhere to go now. Also, the production team did an amazing job filming all this. The clip was amazing.

who else was rooting for the flying fish? I was like "yes, yes fly above, beautiful creature" but then the bird ate it up.

Allah is the best creator... ♥️

Beautiful flying fish

While watching this, I was praying for the flying fish.

when your extra skill is not of any help.

рыбку/птичку жалко.

الله اكبر سبحانك ربي سبحانك سبحانك ما أعظم شأنك

God: here, you can fly Fish: what’s outside the water? God: death Fish: guess I’ll stay in the water God: d e a t h

Lifes never been fair

Beeing food is really a hard job. Amazing images as always

Ok but with his clean moves he deserves to be a alive 2:39

That's not flying. That's just falling with style.

জলে কুমির, ভাঙায় বাঘ 🐯

You know when this narrator is speaking, its gonna be a good one.

Plot twist, the big fish and the bird planned this the day before.

This is the most amazing thing I've ever seen. The fish are literally flapping their wings and flying. Nature never ceases to amaze me...

I can feel how desperate the fly fish was

There should be a R rated animated movie about a school of flying fish trying to migrate from the sea that was polluted by humans. But throughout their journey they will encounter a fast array of predators and threats like sharks, boats, toxic reefs, fishes, and birds when they are gliding. The deaths of the fishes will be heart wrenching to watch as some will surely be killed through their journey while a few manage to reach their paradise.

When you have a lot of ability, you have a lot of enemy. nature at it's finest.

Flying Fish: _evolves once more so that it can teleport_ Aliens arriving on Earth: *There's some food for my pet.*

Talented, but still very vulnerable.

1:48 ココ クッソおもろいww

If you think your life is unfair, just remember the flying fish.

I've traveled as a chef on yachts and our decks were lit by low lights & in the morning, sadly, there would always be dead flying fish all over the deck, most likely trying to get away from all the predators that are always on the hunt for them. They are beautiful fish in flight. After I finished in the galley, would go topside and watch the dolphin playing in our bow wave, and before retiring for the night I would go aft to see the flying fish in the moonlight and count the seconds as they took to flight and stop counting as they collapsed their wing fins and reentered the water. This was what helped me unwind from a full days work. I also did my helm (watch) time, even though I didnt have to as I had a lot of other duties on board. I acted as ships nurse & where I was the only one that knew how to sew, and I don't faint at the sight of blood, so I was appointed to be the ships surgeon if the need ever arose, thankfully it wasn't necessary. There's so much beauty out on the ocean, but I've seen the other side as well, it can humble even the strongest & bravest man in seconds. The sea can be formidable! I am still on a vessel, a sailing vessel, & God has been so good to me. I've visited so many countries, met so many wonderful people & seen so many different types of dolphin playing on bow waves. I've lived a blessed life on the water & got through some frightening times as well, I know God was protecting me, He's my constant companion & for that I'm truly humbly grateful. 🙏👍🙌🕊🙆‍♀️🙋‍♀️

Sir. voice of video is beautiful. Love from India🇮🇳.

That fish is duckin fades every second

The flying fish is a representation of my life in 2020.

Who else was cheering for the flying fish

Imagine these fish evolving into birds after a few million years.

Subhan Allah!

And we humans are here trippin about paying bills! 😂😂🤣🤣🤣

When I'm thinking that I was unfortunate...then watching this video. Made me to think that I'm a lucky human. What a sad life for them.

The struggle of a balancing escape.

Real life pandora (avatar) 😜

sometimes you feel like a flying fish. caught between two worlds. where transcending one means death in another.

god damn. That is a stressful life.

I like this guy's voice.

Subahan allah

Stay in school Kids, the struggle is real.
