The sardine feeding frenzy is one of the great gatherings of marine life captured on film with such epic drama. The soundtrack for that scene is absolutely perfect!
Amazing isn’t it… So many different species of predators working together, feeding on a shoal slowly decreasing in size. Seals, Tuna, Shearwaters, Sharks…. then bang ! An enormous whale swoops in to finish it off.
It's amazing that people get this footage. And we get to watch this from the comfort of our beds. Something we otherwise would not have got to have the seen
Watching it I got to think some of the parts are cgi. Like in the first scene with the fly fish. There is no way they are tracking the fish in the air then are able to get the shot under water with the bigger fish attacking. It just doesn't seem possible. I think get get parts of the scene forsure but not always all of it
I'm sure there were many cut scenes edited to appear as one solid event, but I doubt if any of it was cgi. I would note, however, the scale is hard to determine in the finished video. I have seen tons of flying fish, and they were all in the 4 to 6 inches in length range. And with myself aboard a ship, I saw none of the underwater hunters. The flying fish were fleeing from the ship. @@ericpeticca55
I don't think is real all the time. At times looks like CGI, but they make it like look real as well, so you can get a better idea how things happens in to the wild.
I feel that beautiful animal documentaries like this are not given enough recognition and appreciation! So here‘s a big THANK YOU to everyone being involved shooting this footage!❤
The BBC has admitted that much of its wildlife imagery is a creation of editing in the cutting room and organised environmental settings. I'd be very surprised if the octopus makes that slurpy, slithering noise with its tentacles. How do we know the impala escaped and wasn't just one that jumped out of the ditch?
@@indricotherium4802 I think thats pretty common knowledge now. You expect them to be able to get mics up close to animals in these environments without interference? Sounds are always added in after, and a lot of things are done to manipulate the environment to get footage like this. Doesn't make it any less special though, and an incredible amount of work goes into these documentaries, so just be grateful we can enjoy them.
@@XDflamingdragonDX : I disagree. Once you know it's not natural you are aware while watching that it's product. One starts to think, e.g., bet that's in a nicely arranged tank. Good quality amateur and independent wildlife filmmakers on e.g. UA-cam give you genuine footage and, incidentally, don't cut out the graphic stuff like the BBC does (because it upsets their middle England audience). This sector has its frauds and manipulators too but the product is generally so transparently dodgy or awful that you know within a few seconds you're being taken for a mug. I suppose UA-cam don't ban them because where would they draw the line?
@@indricotherium4802 To each their own I guess. I used to have a similar thought process when I was around 12 years old and heard for the first time that a lot of the footage is in manipulated environments and audio is added in post. However, it stopped bothering me as I got older, especially after I watched a behind the scenes of the planet earth documentaries. As for the gore sensoring, that’s due to monetization, and money is what it’s all about so they won’t be taking any chances with including footage that could affect their ability to get ad revenue.
That sardine shoal being devoured is by far the most amazing nature footage ever captured . You could film for a thousand years and not see anything like it again !
I have seen numerous videos of shoals of sardines being plundered, and I am sure they were not this shoal we just watched. Most times the hunters tried to separate a wing off the entire group and isolate the smaller "sub-shoal" to concentrate their attacks.
Talk about feeling getting attacked from every direction and feeling claustrophobic. Too high you're dead..too low you're dead. you have to get it just right every time for who knows how long..I feel for the fish in this instance it's like they have no shot whatsoever. in life I'm the flying fish and everything else is the world trying to get me and just being exhausted with no end in sight

i can understand his doubts, but most likely they used a multitude of cameras and filmed it from different hunts adding together one big picture. and they were probably drones too. oh the joys of filmmaking

Where would the world be without the BBC Natural History Department? These miraculous films and the calm voice of Sir David Attenborough - the worlds finest human being.
@@bigglyguy8429 No, he didn't. The supposed lie is referring to a recent Netflix documentary called Our Planet, which examines the plight of animals affected by climate change. It is written and narrated by Sir David Attenborough. One scene involves the deaths of a number of walruses that fell from cliff tops while trying to return to their beaches below. The claim of the film is that habitat loss caused by climate change resulted in walruses seeking resting spots in high places from which they could not return. Climate change deniers claimed that the walruses were forced off the cliffs by polar bears, but the producer of the film denies this. I don't think many in the planet have the moral stature and done some much for people understanding nature as Sir David Attenborough, much less an anonymous UA-camr, nice try… not.
The Sardine feeding frenzy looks like a freaking space battle! It's so cool seeing different types of predators all join forces to annihilate some sardines.

if there is anyone here who has never befriended a jumping spider, I suggest getting to know one. They are amazingly animated and have personalities, forethought and even seem to be playful at times. Amazing little creatures
Many thanks to the entire crew member behind this video and all those ppl who liked my comment. I wish us great success, health, love, and happiness! It's great to have you here. 💗💗💗
The moment the Polar Bear launched her surprise attack on the Seal until she resurfaced with her prey literally had me holding my breath. I really need to do more cardio. Clearly.
I love the sound effects they add in it😂 like the spider fight when he was sliding down above the other spider sounded like a fishing pole bringing in a catch lmao 😂
This is brilliant- unbelievably fascinating- and very well edited. It grabs you at the start and never lets go- watch it, trust me. Even if you didn't know you wanted to see it- you do. I was even captivated watching the spyders- which generally speaking just make my skin crawl.

How can you watch these and still think everything in the universe happened just by chance. The more I watch some of these clips the more I realized there's indeed an intelligent creator out there
I feel the complete opposite. If life is presious why would you create so much death and suffering. 13 Billion years on almost an infinite universe, it feels almost inevitable that something this would arise. Charles Darwin has shown that evolution molded life as we know it now. A creator would have made a specfic being that would not transform over time to adapt to its environment. Also my question has always been: If a 'intelligent creator' created us.. then who created the the creator
@@dihana417negative why is there medicine to harvest, not just for humans but for all life, there definitely is a creator, hopefully one day who ever the creator is, will open your eyes to this beautiful universe the creator has made
@@Matthew-q1u No one is doubting the beauty and wonder of the universe. I'm merely pointing out it was never designed or created by a higher being. Literary Zero evidence. We are here by chance and we are incredibly lucky to experience it
@user-fm2kv3sf3n I like how you move the argument away from what he first pointed out: the suffering and pain. If you want to give god credit for the existence of all these wonderful things, you also have to givr him credit for all the horrible things. Plagues. Famine. Suffering. Don't be a hypocrite.
In this case. I have seen them many times when there were no birds around. In fact, they were trying to escape my ship so there may not have been any fish after them either.
Nature documentaries never fails to surprise me. I mean, just how do they capture such real time footage? Like I'm kind of aware of the process but it's just truly amazing how they do it
This guys voice sounds so peaceful cozy along with the story & video I can literally fall asleep 😴 watching /listening to this at night it puts me relax .
Such a huge predator like the Polar Bear is extremely good at going down wind and sneaking right up behind the seal and then grabbed it under water, awesome. We can't lose these animals ❤
We lost them 10 years or so ago according to the climate folks that were caught red handed altering the raw climate data to support their narrative. The actual data supports what they are saying but that wasn't good enough for them.
This video is an awe-inspiring showcase of the beauty and power of nature's hunters. Each scene, captured in mesmerizing 4K UHD by BBC Earth, offers a glimpse into the extraordinary strategies and skills employed by predators in their quest for survival. From the stealthy stalking of big cats to the lightning-fast strikes of birds of prey, every moment is a testament to the incredible diversity and adaptability of life on Earth. As we witness these breathtaking hunting scenes unfold, we are reminded of the delicate balance of nature and the awe-inspiring complexity of the natural world. Truly a captivating and unforgettable viewing experience!
I imagine that drones are now used, and with brilliant editing, we have a visual feast. The narrative is superb. A real treat. Cape Town. South Africa.
9:46 seeing how the hare managed to run away from the 2 wolves trying to hunt it down, I couldn’t help but think that it sure is stressful to live a life of a prey😓
Yes--I'm always haunted by the same thought. Every day of their lives they exist as potential targets, a meal for another animal, which, as Orca lovers are way too fond of reminding me, also has a hungry family to feed. That's very shallow logic for those of us who care about the rabbit and the dolphin, not just the wolves and orcas!
@@prototropo you feel empathy for both sides..... You hope that the prey that fights for it's life escapes,but on the other hand you hope that the starving predator gets to eat. At least nature gives animals a chance when they are still in their prime unlike the animals that we process in slaughter houses.
That's why most prey animals are most prolific in the procreation department. Rabits, for example can have their first litter at age 7 months and have 3-4 litters per year each containing 6-10 kits. @@prototropo
Unless you have been nothing but an honest vegan your entire life rather than the omnivore you are, those hated slaughter houses have fed you. I have eaten a lot of fish and wild game, much of it I have killed, cut up, cooked, and loved eating. But sometimes I have to go to the market for my meat, which mostly came via a slaughter house. The wild game has always tasted better to me. Wild game cannot support our entire population these days. Their habitat is being lost daily as our population has increased by over 1/3 in just my lifetime. I remember when the population of the USA was 180 million now it is over 300 million. I used to hunt in areas that are now full of homes and fish in pristine lakes that have shrunken to muddy and/or polluted rivers. There are millions of people in our country that have never hunted or fished in their lives. Guess the source of their meat. Empathy is fine, until you are chewing on meat, at that point it become hypocrisy. @@johnkooy5327
Wow! Amazing footage! Our crew got on camera a not-so-successful hunt, though... Our crew got on camera 2 male lions trying to take over a bull, and we must say, it didn't look great for them!

I know UA-cam forces shorts but I prefer the longer videos 👍
Shorts are the absolute f-ing *worst!* 😠
Wow...really extraordinary, fascinating documentary....need more like this...thanks for sharing...
Such a huge predator like the Polar Bear is extremely good at going down wind and sneaking right up behind the seal and then grabbed it under water, awesome. We can't lose these animals ❤
And no problem with climbing back up with its strength and claws, unlike how dangerous it would be for humans.
@@ameyring they swim for many miles too when they need to, fantastic beasts
We lost them 10 years or so ago according to the climate folks that were caught red handed altering the raw climate data to support their narrative. The actual data supports what they are saying but that wasn't good enough for them.
BBC is the leaders of educational moves
That polar bear one is incredible, especially when you consider it's all in a single shot.
Majestic wildlife!!! Thanks Sir Attenborough ❤
Watching from Thailand 🇹🇭
BBC Earth is the best❤
Yooooooooo how was this filmed it's incredible
YOOOOOOOOOO HOLY SH*T THE WHALE WAS A PLOT TWIST
The bull surviving the lion attack was incredible
The bull is a straight up G!
This video is an awe-inspiring showcase of the beauty and power of nature's hunters. Each scene, captured in mesmerizing 4K UHD by BBC Earth, offers a glimpse into the extraordinary strategies and skills employed by predators in their quest for survival. From the stealthy stalking of big cats to the lightning-fast strikes of birds of prey, every moment is a testament to the incredible diversity and adaptability of life on Earth. As we witness these breathtaking hunting scenes unfold, we are reminded of the delicate balance of nature and the awe-inspiring complexity of the natural world. Truly a captivating and unforgettable viewing experience!
Nature is brutal 🖤
Mesmerizing footage, truly captivating!
The fish really said ✨️WeEeEe✨️
I imagine that drones are now used, and with brilliant editing, we have a visual feast. The narrative is superb. A real treat. Cape Town. South Africa.
9:46 seeing how the hare managed to run away from the 2 wolves trying to hunt it down, I couldn’t help but think that it sure is stressful to live a life of a prey😓
Yes--I'm always haunted by the same thought. Every day of their lives they exist as potential targets, a meal for another animal, which, as Orca lovers are way too fond of reminding me, also has a hungry family to feed. That's very shallow logic for those of us who care about the rabbit and the dolphin, not just the wolves and orcas!
@@prototropo you feel empathy for both sides.....
You hope that the prey that fights for it's life escapes,but on the other hand you hope that the starving predator gets to eat.
At least nature gives animals a chance when they are still in their prime unlike the animals that we process in slaughter houses.
@@johnkooy5327 Right on all counts, John! Thanks.
That's why most prey animals are most prolific in the procreation department. Rabits, for example can have their first litter at age 7 months and have 3-4 litters per year each containing 6-10 kits. @@prototropo
Unless you have been nothing but an honest vegan your entire life rather than the omnivore you are, those hated slaughter houses have fed you. I have eaten a lot of fish and wild game, much of it I have killed, cut up, cooked, and loved eating. But sometimes I have to go to the market for my meat, which mostly came via a slaughter house. The wild game has always tasted better to me. Wild game cannot support our entire population these days. Their habitat is being lost daily as our population has increased by over 1/3 in just my lifetime. I remember when the population of the USA was 180 million now it is over 300 million. I used to hunt in areas that are now full of homes and fish in pristine lakes that have shrunken to muddy and/or polluted rivers. There are millions of people in our country that have never hunted or fished in their lives. Guess the source of their meat. Empathy is fine, until you are chewing on meat, at that point it become hypocrisy. @@johnkooy5327
Flying fish and swimming birds, its a crazy world we live in eh :D
INCREDIBLE.!!!!! How they ever filmed this is INCREDIBLE. SURVIVAL is the key word for me!
Wow! Amazing footage! Our crew got on camera a not-so-successful hunt, though... Our crew got on camera 2 male lions trying to take over a bull, and we must say, it didn't look great for them!
