The Unknown Wildlife Of Cold Water Coral | Real Wild 

Beautiful footage, very interesting - except - Corals are not related to seastars and sea urchins! Corals and anemones belong to the Phylum Cnidaria, and are closely related, both are in Class Anthozoa. Seastars and sea urchins are in the Phylum Echinodermata. In fact, these phyla (Cnidaria and Echinodermata), or animal groups, are very distantly related. And yes, I am a biology professor and marine biologist.

Very nicely done. As a 77 year old diver I appreciate the great efforts that you went through. Please keep up the wonderful work of our great creator.

Being a retired scuba diver I'm fascinated by the cold water coral reefs. Back when I was diving it was thought that only warm clear water was where you would find gorgeous colors and beautiful wildlife. Mother Earth is always giving us new horizons to study and even to just gaze upon her many wonders. Thank you, and even though this documentary is five years old by the time I watched it it was a really good look at some new things.

I only just found your channel about a week ago and I've been glued to my screen ever since. Great footage, no hysterical commentary, just a nice slow pace of information and wonder. Thanks for all your postings and you have a new subscriber.

So amazing and beautiful..................... thank you Wild things......

... I can't thank you enough for posting these fabulous documentaries. I've been an oil painter since 1976. Fascinated by the "automatic painting" techniques of the master Surrealist Max Ernst, I intuitively adapted them to translate natural fractal patterns to the canvas. From the very first painting, now 42 years ago, my obsessions and passion have opened some kind of perceptual door that captivates viewers. Both a somewhat frightening, and very humbling ongoing experience to be sure. People often ask, "Where do you get your ideas?" Well, fabulous documentaries like these are my primary source. What these courageous and dedicated explorers have enabled me to see, and experience to some degree, so often suddenly stuns me with a moment, a movement, the colours ... which can easily appear in a painting years later, with equally sudden surprise. (I've been evaluated by professionals who determined that I have some odd variation of a "photographic memory", which explains a lot, I should think). So, Thanks So Very Much, again. Our Planet is a world beyond wonder ... and when the very sight of these stunning wonders journeys through your eyes, mind, heart and hands ... they re-emerge without loss of power, or mystery. And the great gift to the artist is to be able to reach out to touch, and feel, with his eyes.

I love ALL animals 😍😍😍

so much of the video devoted to people & machinery. So little to the life down there

It's helped me, with my understanding of coral reefs One "target" for the team to investigate, is the recently found deep sea coarl reef, at the mouth of the Amazon River - the reef, is several 10's of miles off shore, and to deep to dive with tanks - submarine required.

Awesome. Especially love the pronunciation of "Glacier"

I swear 13mins ago the video wasn’t close to the end 😂😂😂. Loved the video love this kinda stuff I can listen and learn all day.

Nature’s Science is so Fascinating 💯❣️❣️❣️ Thank you for sharing...God Bless all involved...Please continue 😘

when I was diving it was thought that only warm clear water was where you would find gorgeous colors and beautiful wildlife.

...Norway has CORAL REEFS??... DAMN! - astonishing footages!...

Peaceful, stunning, wow 😳 fascinating

This is one of the most visually stunning and informative videos👍👍

That's the tragedy of finding new fish are the grimy people who just see dollar signs instead of beauty and life

Watching from NSW Australia. Thank you RW for the upload.

Great video, & great image quality

11:05 they got us with the avengers theme

Fascinating! I'm always amazed by the number of life forms that inhabit our planet. Especially, those that hide in the deep to survive! They, like all creatures, thrive with the same instinct to live in spite of the predators in their environment. Coral alone with all of their species are Majestic! A friend has a large aquarium of saltwater fish with quite an assortment of living and thriving coral. And I can sit there and watch their environment and the various creatures for hours. He has one tank with a Triggerfish and a Lionfish that live together through respect...lol! The Triggerfish has razor teeth and the Lionfish has venom that all creatures avoid. Watching him feed them both with goldfish is amazing!. However, the tank with the coral is a sight to behold. You are so close to seeing their movement according to the circulation of the water. Only then can you see they are living and thriving amongst themselves and the different species and their textures and colors. I love these documentaries that examine sea creatures. They are so "foreign" in appearance and look like aliens from another dimension! However, I'm old enough to remember only black and white televisions with aerial antennas to capture the televised waves. We've come a long way in a short period of time to have big-screen televisions with spectacular results. The digital world is far more outstanding than what we were used to. In fact, analog technology, as amazing it was, is now different from night and day! Today's 5-G televisions, and source cameras, are providing spectacular results in graphics detail and life-like conditions! However, only the day when they develop and market wall-sized 3-D of similar results will provide the live experience to those who are watching and to be viewed by all regardless of their placement in the room! We are not there at this moment, but soon we will. And hopefully, I will be alive to see it.

Wow nice Everytime I open my you tube a beautiful diving reef I want to see again and again.

This is a wonderful documentary. My only question is this, why do some marine biologists refer to Orca whales as "the technically largest dolphin" on the planet, and some refer to them as "killer whales"? I vividly remember Keiko being at the Aquarium in Newport Oregon-- and I saw him a couple of times. Once when he was under weight, and again before he was taken to Iceland. Both times, he refused to hunt for his food, he would play with live fish, and make "friends with live fish and play with them and not hurt them." He would pose for the camera's and spin and seemed to dance in front of the windows when camera's were flashing at him. He almost seemed to smile. I know he was domesticated, and it was the goal to "make him wild again"--I think this poor animal could not in reality live on his own. I am grateful to those who cared for him, grateful for the countries that wound up caring for him until his death. If I am not mistaken, he did wind up finally in a fjord in Norway or Sweden? I know it was a very small fishing village, whose economy depended on FISH! They were not financially able to feed this dependent whale. It was so gratifying that funds came from all over the world to pay for fish and to reimburse them for caring for this animal, who had won the hearts of the world. I think, just because the ORCA's eat fish and other air breathing sea mammals, this should not cause them to be labeled "Killer Whales"--we do not call sharks: "killer sharks"--do we? It just kind makes it seem as this species is someone savage. Yet there are stories of Orca's protecting divers from Great White sharks, bull sharks, and white tipped sharks, and even Galapagos sharks--these seem to be the most vicious when they are not happy. Just my opinion. Thanks for a great documentary! Enjoyed it very much. Fantastic job!

I’m confident this was filmed before the oil spill in the gulf

Watch this beauty of science and you ll be richer in knowledge and you ll get also tranquillity !

This is by far the best underwater documentary I have watched! Thanks for this.

it is truly amazing what we don't know about our own planet I've heard we know more about the moon than we do our own ocean and this video proof that thank you so much for sharing very cool video

I've always wondered who or how scientists come up with the names of all the different species of plants, animals, birds, insects, etc.. etc. Like did they just look at it and say " yeah that looks like a coral reef to me" lol.😄 I mean where do they come up with the names of everything? It has always boggled my mind! 🤔 😊

Honestly, I just wish that just one of those who disliked the video would say why. This video is brilliant and so is this channel👏👏👏

Who would have thought that fishermen could and would become some of the most detestable human beings to inhabit the earth!! So sick to death of their self entitlement to destroy, plunder, poach and pollute our beautiful oceans!!

The planet warms and chills since its beginning. Dont be silly

Love this channel. Just subscribed. Blessings to you for the love of your Earth....our Earth. You are another traveler on this amazing journey! Thanks for taking me along..... :)

A great documentary. Great film shots with such large depths. Thank you for sharing. Applause for the twitters !!!!

Beautiful sea life

Great macro, and larger critters too. Thanks for sharing this perspective.

WONDERFUL AMAZING NATURE beautiful video Thank You

What a pretty sea cucumber with its aqua colors 😍😍😍

I love reefs the most great video.............

Great video thank you 💖👍🏻

COOORRRRALLL

Unreal....

I love all these documentaries...thank u 4 sharing

a few things...corals are not related to echinoderms...they are more closely related to jellyfish and anemones...but otherwise super cool.

Amazing underwater Life.....Super Documentary

This is the best nature science i've ever watch..... thanks for sharing

Love you for providing this ❤

I appreciate being able to view this very much . Thank you.

Amazing ocean . we are human being we must Conservate the nature too together....

love this video ❤️

i just watch this stuff when im bored to be honest i love stuff like this idk why but its just really fascinating

the display of God's awesome creative power does not stop at land's end. Praise the God of Abrabam, Isaac and Jacob for filling the seas with beauty

At 19:58 cool to see even scientists use home buckets for water changes lol a reefer staple

Just a correction.That fish on the bit about the coral reef here in Norway is not a pollock, is a Skrei (atlantic cod)I am fortunate to live with the sea on my door (my house is over the sea)am i am glad to see Norway reefs 🥰Amazing!!🙏🏼

tank you for the revelations on thr state of the coral reefs.

I love animals ❤️

Third comment! Surprised this channel doesn't get as much views as it's sister channel, Real Stories.

Just wow documentary!!! love it.

Wow I really love looking what's inside the ocean like beautiful fishes and corals and many more.God creation was really amazing and magnificent.😍😍😍💖💖💖

Love these videos

This is great

I thought I had to go far away over seas to see reefs, this is different and wonderful and needs to be protected!

Thank you for uploading this!! I’m always looking for new ocean nature documentaries or shows with European voice overs because they are relaxing and they help me sleep lol. and I thought I’d seen them all!!

I just love the underwater world

Those cameras 😲 look at this quality. Its like a movie 🎥

New and other waters for many different divers with original place origins. Delicate balance of protection and services respected. Look at those fish school formations splendid in performance court tegrities. Reef variations patterns had dramatic combination. Yes, finding new species is always a wonderful level. Spawning beds are vital for eco systems nursery standards. As a side note: Some of the comments you claim had a different human like description that highlighted a particular range of psychology that might of implicated a direction of entertainment, in which might of lead us in too a smile limit. Fair-regraded as a talented-demeanor-rendering-generosity. The water near the attic circle seems to have a darkened appearance as older water or ancient passage. Thanks for sharing such video experience.

So extraordinary yet so fascinating ✌🔥🔥🔥🤩

Beautiful documentary

I love orange roughy. Especially baked on top of a bed of rice. Lemon butter sauce

Amezing sea

Amazing. So much more work to be done. Hopefully, through experimentation we can establish a usefulness baseline-maybe chart: name, size, abundance, availability along X coordinates then Soy, Horseradish, Vinegar, Tar Tar, Cocktail, Butter and Wasabi along Y.

Some of these documentaries are so bittersweet, you learn and see wonderful new things, yet you're constantly reminded of how greedy, ignorant, irresponsible, unappreciative and really just primitive we humans still are.. technology aside, we still have a very long way to go before we can be proud of ourselves..

Destroying those reefs for profit is an outrage. The problem is that there are still millions of hungry people who are not fed by the caught fish. Disgusting Amazing documentary. Bravo for the photographers

I am so thankful that most of the ocean ecosystsm is still a mystery else humans would hv destroyed it by now.

Great video, I really enjoyed that. Absolutely first class.

Wow this is amazing.

Very good bhai log👍

The human capacity to destroy in the name of profit has no limit, which is why regulation is of the greatest importance.

I wish I could hear the species names more clearly. Some of these took a few searches on google to have the kind of fish get suggested. The flamboyant red... what? Nothing comes up for that one..

A great documentary

The way that poor but amazing robot was being pulled back into it's pod was rather

MERAVIGLIOSi fondali marini. 👍👍👍👍👍👍 GRAZIEEEE milllleeeee 👍🌅

i love how the fishes dont react to the bright light and probably the noise of the submarine/machine. theyre calm af. so cute.

Wow. Absolutely stunning footage. Would be so amazing to take the time to collect all the video to make something like this. Must be an incredible journey. African wildlife Has such a hold on my heart. Thank you so much for this. Just beautiful. - ANRT

I also LOvE your show. Nicely put together . Theirs no one talking on screen. That we have to listen and look at for most of it . So, congrats Totally awesome !!!

imagine noone knew these creatures even existed then one day they see an octopus!

That narrator sounds like the love child of Benedict Cumberbatch and David Tennant

The more humankind get to know the earth, the more they destroy it, prove me wrong anyone?

Awesome.

Beautiful!

What are you people doing subscribe this channel is awesome I know a lot about the oceans and animals learn something new every time I watch one of these episodes keep them coming please show your kids teach teach teach!

Nice and amazing vedio😀👍💖

DID HE SAY THAT CORALS ARE RELATED TO SEA URCHINS AND STARFISH??!!

mind blowing

Its scary but cool that we know more about space but not the ocean

22:16 if you turn on captions, it says "seein enemies" XD

😳AMAZING 😱

سُبحَانَ اللّهِ وَ بِحَمْدِهِ ، سُبحَانَ اللّهِ الْعَظِيمِ

Absolutely fascinating video. I love shit like this!
