Bald Eagle: (screeches while flying in front of American flag) Director: “Hold up, CUT! Stop the filming” Bald Eagle: “Is there a problem?” Director: “Look kid, you’re a good actor and all, and I think you’re definitely a powerful and majestic bird but the call really isn’t doing it for me. Can we get the hawk in here for a voiceover?” Cameraman: “He called in sick today, but we got the kookaburras voice acting for dolphins in the studio next door” Director: “….that could work…”
Fun fact about that longhorn beetle: they're not nearly as much of a threat as they used to be because woodpeckers actually LEARNEDD how to get them out of the wood. That's right, they taught themselves how to eat a new bug that burrowed its way into the bark different from our native bugs apparently, if it weren't for that amazing adaptation from our woodpeckers, they might have done so much worse
First the animal noises, then a buncha other random government and doctor mythsss (how long it takes to digest gum, area 51, things like that) what's nextttttt
@@heiseigojifan2713 When you realize sharks kill less people than cows. You know why? Most people are never around sharks or wolves and we all know they're dangerous. That's such a nothing fact
@@heiseigojifan2713 Because I'm pointing out how much of a nothing fact your statement is. The vast majority of people never even SEE a wolf in real life outside of a zoo. Dogs are literally everywhere humans are found. Not to mention, people don't go starting shit with wolves like they do dogs. Hippos will attack anything that isn't bigger than them and some things that are. Yet dogs still kill more people than hippos. Because again, one's far more common. Shit, you know what basically never attacks humans and is STILL statistically one of the deadliest animals in the world? Fucking deer.
As a rabid horse girl, I can confirm. Rhinos are better than zebras. And honestly can't believe they're more related to donkies, because the donkies I've met just wanna back that dump truck of an ass up on you, so you'll scratch him, and the other cries at the fence at you when he doesn't get his own pile of hay, and he seems to think you can't walk without him, or go anywhere without him. He scream cries like a baby
Domesticated donkeys are such underrated animals. I actually think they're a lot better than horses...smarter and friendlier. Stubborn, yes, but that comes with "smarter."
I love how angry/offended that *THEY DO NOT LIKE TO BE TOUCHED* came across, like he’s the beetle’s therapist who had to hear him come home and go “I WAS TOUCHED BY A HUMAN I HATE LIFE”
Fun (false)fact: Benjiman Franklin didnt want bald eagles to represent America because he saw the eagles as cowardly and belive that turkeys would be a better bird to represent the country arguring that thier recklessly aggressive behaviour would be a better to represent the strength of America.
Specifically, Franklin was referring to the bald eagle's tendency to steal fish from the osprey, rather than catching one itself. Theft of another animal's prey is called kleptoparasitism and is very common among fish eating birds.
"A lion will make you defecate bricks... but a tiger will make you shit your soul." "The symbol of America just sounds like a seagull with laryngitis." I lost it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I mean, you look at Pliny the Elder's original description of a 'Unicorn': "It has the body of a horse, the head of a stag, the feet of an elephant, the tail of a boar, and a single black horn three feet long in the middle of its forehead. Its cry is a deep bellow.". Sounds a lot like a secondhand description of a Rhino.
Remember Leviathan and behemoth from the Bible? Yeah. They weren’t describing anything magical. Behemoth was the African bush elephant, and leviathan was just a really old Nile crocodile.
It's kind of ironic how Steven Hillenburg, the creator of SpongeBob was a marine biologist. Yet he still used the non-dolphin noise for dolphins and other sea creatures in his show lol.
@@legend._ I mean, it’ll do the job, make no mistake. There’s just better blades out there. Machetes are designed for cutting through dense foliage. When it comes to cutting flesh, they’re relatively inefficient.
I work in a plant nursery. I saw a female titan beetle near one of the plant tables. She was dead, but she was huge. I put my hand next to her to gague her size. BTW, I could tell it was female by the pattern on her wings.
Fun fact: for all the faults the movie _Birdemic_ has, one thing I have to give it credit for is the clever subversion on the “bald Eagle” sound effect used in movies. Basically, the birds you see on screen are red-tailed hawks (the birds that *actually* make that sound), but their cries are the actual annoying screech of the bald Eagle.
Do you know why we call the Bald Eagle the “Bald Eagle”? It was actually shortened from Old English “Piebald” meaning - Crowned with white.” Also, that’s an awesome Sublime Album.
The bit about rhinos being legally blind is something I first heard about maybe forty years ago. It was in an article about a scientist who experimented with putting corrective lenses on a rhino and documenting how being able to se a lot better changed the behavior. I which I could remember more about this because as I remember it made a massive change in how the rhino interacted with other animals and people. But like I said it was probably more than forty years ago and I only read the article because it was interesting and well written. And I certainly never heard anything more about it after that. Back in the pre-internet age it was a lot more work needed to keep track of things like this.
Dolphin meat is delicious. Grille with saffron and lavender flowers. Add crushed pecans. Spiritual chakras 2 and 5 will be activated. Good for clarity of thought; eyesight. Manifestation of procreation energy.
@@jazzman7842 well technically speaking in the USA for many years they had canned tuna but it was really dolphin meat... See, the govt is smart, they force spirituality on you and you just accept it. You question me? Yet if you had to go to court tomorrow guess what it will say on the wall? Guess!! It will say "In God we trust". Yet I bring the mystery of nature and immortality, and you curse at my words? I am only on this planet for a few moments longer... Then you will see, so few of you asked my spirit the right questions. Amen.
Rhinos ARE technically Unicorns... Due to literally thousands of years of mistranslation, Rhinoceros was treated more as horned hippopotamus', which basically means "horned river horse". Centuries of misinterpretation and boom you have "horned horses"
Honestly, it's one of my favorite channels. This channel makes me feel better when I'm bored or sick or I can't find any brain stimulation. I watch it regularly when I want to go to sleep. Sometimes i leave it playing on its own ,video after video. This is not a dig or insult. It's a legitimately good channel for great entertainment and comedy that always keeps my interest when I need help making my day better!
"Let's just appreciate that some guy went through years of school and student loans just to end up getting paid to put glasses on a discount octopus." WORTH IT! ;D
Oh yeah, every Brit lives in constant fear of seagulls. Did you know there’s one specific seagull in London that figured out how to hunt pigeons by jumping them, dragging them into water and drowning them, then picking the meat off the corpses and sharing it with his mate. These things are straight up flying Lecters
Yep. I remember a group of these flying psychopaths forming a V to dive at students at school, forcing the students to drop flat on the ground, usually dropping their food which the gulls at the end of the V would grab and the group would then land, distribute the goods, eat, then repeat. If you didn't drop to the ground flat on your stomach? The gulls were not afraid to use force to MAKE you give up the goods. And yes, I am talking about the birds and not the mob, mobsters have more mercy than these terrors. Read a book where an island and its inhabitants were enslaved by seagulls: all I could think was "It's just a matter of _when_ this becomes reality for the UK at this point".
As someone who got terrified by the roars of Leo the Lion from _MGM,_ let's appreciate the fact that Samuel Goldwyn and Louis Meyers have enough balls to film the roaring lion in front of camera and made it to the big screen.
Fun fact because the rhino-unicron thing reminded me of it: The vikings used to pay indigenous peoples for narwhal horns - then they sold the narwhal horns but marketed them as “unicorn horns.” Everybody believed them, too.
Flipper was my childhood, and I wasn't surprised a bit, when I found this out. I was already pretty up on how they liked to lie, even at a young age. You, Sir, are a joy to watch and learn from.
Okay the cuttlefish one was adorable. When I think of one wearing glasses I can’t help picturing them using a tentacle to gently straighten them if they were to slip to one side 😊
I live in the UK, and seagulls down the coast are no joke. You have to literally watch out and protect your food if they're near by because you may be going hungry and they not.
Definitely. I live in a seaside town, and I've been had many a cone of chips 'liberated' by a gull or 3. There's never only one. They are gluttons with no moral compass and they make it everyone's problem
Do you live near Whitby? Official council signs warning about the risk of getting mugged by gulls at one time. Not been since lockdowns, so may have changed. Or have the gulls removed them?
When I was a kid I went to the beach and started feeding bread to the seagulls, until this big ass seagull attacked me. So I refuse to like seagulls to this day, they crap everywhere and attack children..
I'm in a rough spot rn, struggling through trying to quit my addictions, and let me tell you, this channel has been a godsend. I just put them on and get lost in the witty commentary and fun facts. thank you man
I would give just about ANYTHING to be able to hang out with a rhino. They are up there with my very very favorite animals--and I grew up on a farm and ran a rescue. Tell your sister to send some love scritches from a random weirdo on the internet. 😆
My Friend, YOU are an Educator of the Finest Kind! Make everything so accessible and easy to understand while being highly entertaining! What a GIFT You give those who might not have been so interested... You might be doing this for the Wildlife but You are MUCH appreciated 👍
Seriously, though. Tigers make lots of sounds and one of them hits the 'evacuate your bowels and run' button on the human brain. From miles away. Also, they actually live in the jungle (sometimes) and they're burlier than lions by a lot. Not sure why they're not king.
Unicorns WERE single horned rhinos. Even in the Bible when it talks about unicorns, it talks about their might and brute strength, not how equines are typically described. Some modern translations change unicorn to "young ox" but it doesnt make as much sense in context especially since unicorn literally means ONE horn.
@@esbirdnerd Because the Bible is one of the most well known books that has parts written thousands of years ago, so sometimes people will study older translations for info on historical stuff. It's how you get theories like the Nephilim being evidence of giants actually existing.
It is honestly criminal that in pop culture, leopards are often dubbed over with cougar screams (a.k.a. sounds that leopards are physically incapable of making), and meanwhile lions are dubbed over with either tiger roars, or ACTUAL leopard roars. Just watch The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe for an example. Literally ALL of Aslan's roars are leopard sounds-and meanwhile what do all the leopards and cheetahs sound like? Take a guess...
Honestly... The cougar scream creeps me out the most. Lion and tiger roars are definitely fear inducing, but the scream of a mountain lion just fills me with a creep factor that nothing else matches. Maybe it's because I live around them, idk...
@@scottcantdance804 They also chirp. Mom was inspecting mines, heard chirping and said, “What kind of bird is that?” The mine manager looked at her, horrified. “Ma’am… that’s a mountain lion. Not a bird.” But because Mom never tried looking for the source of the chirping, the lions never tried to intimidate her or chase her away.
@@brigidtheirish you should lmao. Imagine explaining that at a family gathering..."So what are you up to these days Frank?" "Oh I just finished a movie where I growled into a garbage can for the sound effects." Relative just edges away....
Animal Planet needs to give you your own show dude. Your commentary is so spot on for the younger generations! (I sound old as fuck but im 30) good stuff man please keep it up
That "eagle screech" in movies used to throw me off when I was a kid because I grew up in a rural area near the coast in central California. Red-tail hawks were common there, so I knew what they sounded like. Whenever I heard that sound paired with an eagle, I was confused.
I don't know about Tiger roars but as a kid I found Lion roars quite terrifying. I grew up at Obafemi Awolowo University and it had a functional zoo that had Lions. The zoo was a couple of miles away from the staff quarters where we lived and we frequently heard the Lions roaring. They didn't sound that far away. At a time there were rumours the Lions had escaped and during those times we children felt the roars were coming from a few feet away outside our room.
Man the more I learn the more I wonder how I would have turned out if I was not lied to as much as a child. Not all that different to be honest though.
The reason why that makes you happy is the fact that people perceived as serious as a scientist only can be - are still only a kid playing videogames in their mom's basement underneath. It makes them as human and as relatable as an RU-vid content creator
1:07 See, this is why James Earl Jones is a goddamn badass. His voice is so amazing that it comes with its own intensely modified sound effects. That's why Darth Vader sounds like a Scuba machine built by Lucifer. And now it's why Mufasa roared like a fugging F-16... Sometimes the truth is just better than fiction.
Bro…found your channel by mistake but I’m sure as hell glad I did. Been binging for hours now. You got a subscriber for life here so keep the awesome videos coming!!
Wait people thought the Hawk cry at the start of westerns was an eagle? I thought it was always intended to be a hawk because it shows how hot/aired the land the movie takes place in. Since Hawks are very common in "The old West".
@@gl9040 also, 9 hours ago this comment was pretty new. So it only had 3-10 likes. As you can see the time stamp when CLB commented- it was an hour later. When it had about 20 likes^^
When I was a kid and learned that birds evolved from dinosaurs, I couldn't believe it but the more I learn about them and how brutally they live despite being often small and cute, the kids believable it is
You know the scream the Jurassic Park raptors make that shakes you to your core? That was made with a combination of dolphin vocalizations and walrus roars.
"They call him Flipper, Flipper, faster than lightning. No one you see, is smarter than he! And we know Flipper lives in a world full of wonder, flying there under... under the sea!!!"
I hear red tailed hawks around my area all of the time. It's such a cool sound, I understand why they use it, but they could just be honest about it lol. Red tails are truly beautiful, deadly creatures.
And than, there is this Dutch maniac who's feeding his "pet seagull" for over 100 days now to get it in his flat. Yeah. And denied to feed the offspring from that seagull, cause he hate it that the baby tries to get something to eat as well.
