What impresses me more than his fishing and knowledge of biology are Jeremy's people skills. I don't know how many languages he learned for his show, but dude was multilingual and jumped at the chance to meet and get to know people all around the world. Aspirational, honestly.
I miss this show immensely and wish it would make a return but love that Jeremy came back with spin-off series’ like Mighty Rivers and Dark Waters, there needs to be more though, there is never enough River Monsters action to satisfy longtime fans of the series.
Jeremy Wade's ability to combine adventure, science, and storytelling was unmatched. The spin-offs like Mighty Rivers and Dark Waters are great additions, but nothing quite captures the same magic as the original series. Let’s hope Jeremy graces us with more projects in the future-there’s definitely no such thing as too much River Monsters action for the dedicated fans!
@@brandonwhite142 River Minners. Instead of catching the biggest predators around the world, he goes around and microfishes for unique and beautiful non-game species to highlight local biodiversity.
I wish they made a show called saltwater monsters where Jeremy would go after huge sharks, and other killer saltwater fish like marlin and tuna. I guess they kinda did this with season 8 but would have been cool for that to be an entirely new show after river monsters ended
That would be awesome but supposedly it was almost a miracle that they were even able to finish this show cuz of all the planning / logistics they had to do made it extremely difficult to pull off. If I remember right they almost stopped after season 1 but the show was too popular to just end it there and luckily for us they didn’t lol
Worse hippos with their tantrums and unpredictable temper and on the other side nile crocodiles are basically dinosaurs' and they are actively known to hunt humans .
@@callengaza1928dude i dont understand why anyone would risk it with a hippo, one of the few animals i truly dont want to run into the wild, im deeply impressed by the sheer dumb luck lmfao
No way in hell I'm going in the Nile River with a man-made flimsy raft with giant crocodiles and there's hundreds of them maybe thousands and hippos. Like you're begging to be killed at that point.
It's so funny that the bear just kept chilling around them even after the warning shot. He's like what the hell man I'm just trying to chill with you guys 😂
That is not a "chilling" bear, that's a hungry bear that's seeing something that could satiate its hunger, so be it the fish they're capturing, or them in particular.
this show used to be one whenever i was my dads. It was always so intresting and i ended up loving it more than i realized. It was so comforting and i loved the way he just talked to and about these different cultures. Plus the stories were always so interesting
I remember those notes that pop up at the bottom in the first season or two said how many he spoke at one point, and I think it was that he is fluent in like 6+ languages or something crazy like that. He's a crazy smart man to be so knowledgeable about so many different subjects.
He is fluent in English and Portuguese, and knows parts of 12 other languages. Probably enough to get by in those countries. Very smart guy as well as good role model. And the fishing goat. ❤ I love River Monsters. I grew up fishing on a local river with my brother and male cousins. We had endless discussions about what was actually lurking on the river bottom. We fished and camped every summer growing up. I have nothing but the fondest memories. 😊 Jeremy got to live our wildest dreams.
He isnt playing, carrying a .50 cal. But those bears get absolutely huge. Coastal brown bears that eat salmon get so big. Up to 1,700 lbs which is insane. Theyre like tanks with teeth and claws.
@@LoganSrensen. There's a huge one at Black bear restaurant/bar , on the drive to Alaska. It's so big they had to add on to the building . The gal that shot it was 5 ft and maybe 90 pds ! She came walking out of the back with a cast on her leg , she fell off the horse at the grocery store ! Great people and 1 huge bear 🐻😊
Coastal brown bears are no joke. You do not fish with them unless you are well armed. 😅 They aren't normally aggressive if you give them space and respect. But they're always capable of defending their food source.
If you mean the bear at 5:15, that's just a blonde phase brown bear. Brown bears can be dark, almost black, brown, blonde and cinnamon. Spirit bears are a subspecies of black bears (Ursus americanus) Spirit bears (Ursus americanus kermodei) live in the pacific northwest. Not Alaska. Black bears can also be black, brown, cinnamon, blonde (spirit bears) and even a small population of Glacier blue/gray bears in the Yukon, BC, Alaska border area. Yes I'm a bit of a nature geek 😅
"Carrying a gun at all times is common practice in the Alaskan wilderness"- proceeds to show a whole video of other places where it'd be a good idea! 🤣 I loved this show. Perfectly blended education, entertainment and different cultures. The Chernobyl episode was a personal favorite of mine (if I could pick just 1). I typically liked the episodes where he was on his own, completely isolated.
It's a 500 magnum. Very common brush gun in alaska, because it's one of the few Pistols that packs enough punch to actually do some damage to one of those bears.
How did that flimsy canoe stay afloat with such big bollocks on board😂 the Lake Chamo scene was nuts…going out in croc and hippo infested waters in that is sheer madness Jeremy is a REEEEEAL BADMAN
It's mostly these sorts of creatures getting the spotlight in the collective consciousness while killer fish almost go unnoticed, unless you're an angling detective like Jeremy.
You dont get a perspective on how big crocs are till you see them in person. I saw one at my local zoo, it was a saltwater crocodile that was 14 foot long and man it was massive. Almost like a submarine with teeth, I couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that they can grow 6-7 feet larger.
When they’re trying to net sawfish I just can’t get over how he’s releasing the fish so calmly with crocs all over. I’d wouldn’t be putting my hands in that water especially at night lol
@fortunewilliam255 they specifically mention salt water crocodiles in this documentary but giving the benefit of the doubt the point still stands. Nile crocs could easily do the same
@ immediately afterwards they were in Australia looking for the skipe fish or saw fish idk but then those weee salties. The one with the African fisherman was a baby Nile. He said the croc was salty… feisty if you will
Having been in a few of the rivers in South and Central America, I was too busy staying alive to fish. Black caimans were what terrified me and my friend. Stay well, Jeremy, stay well.
It was mentioned that they aren't too far from where Timothy and Amy were eaten by a bear. Why didn't anyone from this expedition ask the bears if they knew Tim and Amy?
The bear(s) that took down and fed on Timothy and his gf were dispatched, if i remember correctly. You can't have man eaters walking around. One was a starving older bear who didn't have enough fat packed on to survive winter. They should've left 2 weeks beforehand when they had the opportunity.
My dad and i used to watch this religiously.. now he’s passed away and this is my comfort show

I don’t think Wade has passed?

i mean there is a guy next to him with a revolver
@@oldblokestranded8767 and baby bear
😅😂😂
@@oldblokestranded8767 The revolver is just a deterrent, if the bear wants to hurt or kill them the revolver isn't going to stop him

There are see fish monsters videos!!! Various sharks, Wolf Fish etc?
He is likely getting a bit old to start saltwater. Everything is bigger and stronger in the ocean
He has met up with big sharks in some episodes
He’s done that already
Fishing in the african rift valley on a log, basically, with nile crocs and hippos, is next level insanity
true but you see the cameraman is probably on an heavily armed safe boat.
Worse hippos with their tantrums and unpredictable temper and on the other side nile crocodiles are basically dinosaurs' and they are actively known to hunt humans .
@@callengaza1928dude i dont understand why anyone would risk it with a hippo, one of the few animals i truly dont want to run into the wild, im deeply impressed by the sheer dumb luck lmfao

You will never catch me playing in rivers 🤣🤣 where I’m from rivers = death. Love this show though !!🥳 woooo woooo

Yeah lol he's an idiot I'm surprised they didn't get gobbled up.
And then fishing and placing them gently on the water with his hand on the water just waiting to be snatched by a croc.
Animal planet must have had no budget for this show lol
Hippos 😮
I wouldn’t care if I was in a ship the size of the titanic 😂 it’s not worth it
It's so funny that the bear just kept chilling around them even after the warning shot. He's like what the hell man I'm just trying to chill with you guys 😂

It has already associated them with the idea of easy food.
i’m so glad i got recommended this. i haven’t watched river monsters since 2012
Forreal good memories watching this with my dad on animal planet
Bear: “heyyyy there buddy I see you got a fish there, don’t mind if I do” 😅
Fires warning shot
Bear:”rude”
5 seconds later, hey its me again.
this show used to be one whenever i was my dads. It was always so intresting and i ended up loving it more than i realized. It was so comforting and i loved the way he just talked to and about these different cultures. Plus the stories were always so interesting
We know about the show
Jeremy is the TRUE River Monster.
thank god he had ricky from trailer park boys to protect him from the bear
Now I can't unsee it lmao
Yep
💀💀💀
😂
😂😂😂😂
Those hippos are crazy intimidating
8:23 the cayman just looking like “damn dude I know I’m a cayman can you please stop holding me”
Dunno why but that bears reaction to the warning shot really cracked me up... We need that in slow mo 😆👍
If you hit the settings button in the top right you can make control play speed
the face on that little bull shark is hilarious its like ok man put me back
How many languages does this guy speak

He isnt playing, carrying a .50 cal. But those bears get absolutely huge. Coastal brown bears that eat salmon get so big. Up to 1,700 lbs which is insane. Theyre like tanks with teeth and claws.
A 50 cal is almost kinda small for big bears. My buddies dad lives on Kodiak island and he’s looking for something bigger than his 50
Lmfao, a 1700lb grizzly is almost unheard of, not impossible but incredibly rare
@@minnesotatomcat a 500s&w outta do it 😂

Love this guy! He's like Steve Irwin with a fishing rod.

It's a 500 magnum. Very common brush gun in alaska, because it's one of the few Pistols that packs enough punch to actually do some damage to one of those bears.
@ some damage? You mean that thing doesn’t immediately desenegrate them?
500 grain round definitely does some damage
Bear not tryna hear nothing
Awesome gun!

What an amazing fella he is. Stay safe, stay healthy, my friend.
I love fishing in Alaska so much been here for 33 years now!!
I would truly love seeing Alaska, but in the summer. 😂 I'm not fond of our winters here in PA. Lol Alaska must seem like heaven to us nature lovers. 😊
@ it’s a beautiful place summer time is the best for sure lol not from here tho!!
Another brilliant episode. 🙏💯💯💯💯🙏

Belize is beautiful! And friendly people.... how's the fishing there?!
I loved my vacation there !! Can't wait to visit again!
I miss this show and Jeremy ❤
That sawfish episode was crazy
always loved his shows beats soap operas!
The goat Jeremy Wade! Will never forget that the show ended because he caught every single river monster 😭🙌🏻
His cameraman is a legend 🫡
Loved this show so much growing up
Jeremy Wade aka the GOAT
Im high and this is so much more scarier and better than any new horror movie😅
The lucky dip from hell 😂
Jeremy is so ridiculously brave,,the coolest customer on film I think .
Very impressive everytime ❤
That’s not a graceful retreat but in all fairness I would call it a tactical retreat 😂😅😂
Ah yes the famous african alligator found in africa. Jeremy even says crocs it shouldn’t be this hard
Oops, we changed the description
Crocs scare me more than sharks
good, sharks are just big and goofy, crocs are aggressive and hate everyone
olha para quem gosta de novas experiências este programa vai além das expectativas
It always impresses me how he knows so many rare languages.. and of course the fish!!
I love this show, informative and fascinating at all times !
bring Jeremy Wade back to TV!
