We all love you Frankie ✨ have yourself a swell day!
Please make a children's series so I can use it to teach my 12 year old grandchild
well maybe that's just how a zefrank do. hmm? ever think about that??
me neither.
but still mebe
I'm trying to subscribe and it won't move past the ' which best describes you' screen.
“These science hippies made clay models of a sea cucumber, apparently that’s what you do with a PhD” is my favorite line. 😂
That is how the PhD do
Best part is he cut that joke out of the family friendly version, presumably because he didn't want to offend any teachers
@@samvimes9510 Did he keep murder chicken?
@@squatchjosh1131 sort of, he changed it to "headless chicken monster"
@@samvimes9510 Seems like a fair compromise
“...all the sea cucumbery bits they need to start cucumbering” is one of the best sentences I’ve ever heard. Thank you
Hahaha oh I loved that bit too! And **lowers voice** MURDER CHICKEN
I prefer "he's got another sleeve up his butt.
😂😂😂
Totally...they cucumber and I lol
Every sentence in this video is one of the best sentences every heard
"Crawl around in a way that looks just how vomiting feels"
I love these analogies, they are SO CORRECT
That one catches me off guard every time and hits just as hard
I had to replay that 4 times cuz I kept laughing too hard to hear what came next 🤣
Its. It's absolutely correct too. And I hate how correct it is
💀☠💀☠
Hearing zefrank say ‘tubed feet’ the exact same way in every video is my main source of happiness
And bebehs
@@andfoundout and byurds
I’d like to imagine Zefrank’s True Facts videos to be Nat geo documentaries but the narrator has the freedom to say literally anything without any consequences, as long as it’s focused on the subject or animal at hand
You're telling me this is not the nat geo youtube channel? I'm so disappointed.
I'd like to think in the distant future humans will look back and see these videos as an accurate representation of our education system.
I feel it's mystery science theater with learning bits.
look up "the round planet" you'll have a great time
I dunno, Ze gets off topic sometimes...
I'm always floored by the amount of real scholarly research that ends up going into what is essentially a comedy video that's simultaneously more entertaining and informative than any textbook I've ever seen.
ZeFrank, you should be proud.
Absolutely! Science, in and of itself, is fascinating but you need the right teacher to interest those who don’t naturally enjoy learning about science. Zefrank is perfect for that!
in sweden i think you got a study on the slimeyness of fish
We can agree on that.
@@tobiascarlsson5967 , you studied fish slime at school in Sweden?
@@chthulu27 no i read it in the papper as being a uni study and it makes sence boil you tackle and bits or you will kil the thing that is your bobby and joy .
If I have watched these during my childhood, I would probably be a biologist by now. A foul-mouthed one, but a biologist nonetheless.
Your logo is cool!
@@pcfllms Thanks!
@@pcfllms what bout my logo?.. cool 😎?
I'm currently finishing my degree in Zoology, and Frank has inspired me even further.
@@jameshowlett2219 amazing
"Every once in a while Satan releases a murder chicken!" That part made me spit out my beer and had me cracking up so hard!😂🤣😂
Had to replay that one lol.

Little guy was having the time of his life
He's eating it, now he's gonna eat me! Oh my gooooooood!

And that makes you think about guys irl doesn’t it?
He is taking it like a oil rig worker finally hitting that black gold. He will definitely tell his wife afterwards.
@@WindFireAllThatKindOfThing He's probably intelligent enough to not be dumb enough to smoke.
The temptation to show this to my science class without waiting for the education version is very real. But I think I like being employed. Another tremendous edition to the series!
There are EDUCATION VERSIONS of each of these!?!?!?
@@carsonrush3352 also curious. What a great way to drive interest and grab the attention of school kids (of any age, although the versions I'm familiar with would only be "appropriate" for college "kids" 🤣)
@@carsonrush3352 Yes, it's on another channel, I think it's called TrueFactsEducational (or something similar).
It's badically the same video just without the saucy parts. 😂
You must be one of them science hippies ZeFrank is always talking about.
Do you have the hair like Doc Brown from Back to the Future?
Its sad, these ones would grab attention far better than toned down ones. Magnitudes!
Oh the jokes this episode... simply delightful
1:19 they probably have that in Vegas
1:38 it's like an orgy for introverts

👍😌
“They have an orgy for introverts” is from this day forward the only way I’m ever going to describe this kind of asexual reproduction.
@@Killer_snail its sexual, just without intercourse
We all watched the video, there's literally no need to parrot it.
It’s ✨ass+✨ for me…🤣
How you don't have your own TV show?? You're a perfect example of learning entertainment. I've genuinely learned so much random shit watching your videos over the years.
Please don't ever quit
“No Jerry, we’ve seen quite enough of that filthy shrimp.” Is now one of my favorite sentences.
That shrimp sure loves fish jizz. I just can't get with the fish jizz thing myself. It's for sale, in several kinds and flavors, at my local Japanese market and I"m just like ... Nah.
@@alexcarter8807 it's packed with protein and there's plenty to eat! That's probably the best that shrimp ate that week.
Also, they sell fish jizz at Japanese markets? Why?
@r33mote of course they did...
@@alexcarter8807 u like fishsticks ...?
@r33mote yea but it’s just the American facial taken to the next level because Japan 😂🎉
This whole episode was a weird one. I alternated between fascinated, disgusted, and laughing hysterically.
But I absolutely lost it at the line, "but sea cucumbers have another sleeve up their butt."
Your first sentence describes a good day on the coral reef when I was a kid. Good times.
That line is fantastic 😂
I was losing my shit throughout, but "sleeve up their butt" really tipped me over the edge to maniacal, gasping laughter
Oh thank god, I’m not the only one then
“Margery, there’s a little something on your cheek. Let me get it for you…oops.”
Ahh, the benefits of butt lungs… a phrase I never thought I’d contemplate.
Thank you for another incredibly informative (somewhat repulsive), classic comedic ZeFrank style. 😂 Ty for all the work you go to out these together.
From a long time viewer, & 👩🏻🔬 Hippie 😁
💀☠💀
Why is no one talking about the sound effects at 9:03 😂 i can't fathom how you come up with these things i love you videos! Thank you for making then and putting all this effort ❤️
This man is the epitome of quality over quantity
do you mean frederick?
You must not have watched summoning salt.
him and Sam
And the quantities are high , figure out the quality !
I am your 777th like. You're welcome.
There’s nothing like a zefrank1 vid fresh off the printer, you can still feel the warmth
If you can feel the warmth, then knowing Zefrank there's probably a moist patch from some kind of bodily fluid causing it. Yes Jerry, I hope it was consentual too!
Oh... Oh god... That's traumatic to think about all the reasons it feels so... Fresh
Yeah 😆
I feel like the pearlfish after every zefrank video
I’d been afraid he’d given up for a couple of years, and wouldn’t see him anymore. I’m glad he’s making new ones!
I worked on long-line deep-water oyster farms for yrs and sea cucumbers were just one of many interesting animals that came aboard during oyster harvests. Little crabs & mini eel-like critters called blennies were also hiding in and dropping from lines of oyster clusters. Baby starfish often attached too, along with scallops etc
I had a sea cucumber in my reef tank as a clean up crew and within a few months I saw it was smaller and shriveled up. But I also then realized that there was another sea cucumber and I kept finding more and more smaller ones. I didn’t know that they can also split like that it was very interesting to see.
wtf 😳
yeah; they don't have brains, so i would guess it's fairly simple to split like that
"Let us begin by starting right before the beginning" feels like the most Zefrank way to introduce the mating season, love it.
Very Douglas Adams too
He switched up the format!
*“Murder Chicken”* made me laugh way harder than I ever would have thought it would, please don’t stop being amazing, zefrank
*Scary Clown Says Run Away*
SAME
That's what in Zelda games we call Cuccos.
If it makes it to the surface we are all fuxxed! 🤣🤣
I rewound a few seconds to hear Murder Chickens again. 😂
I learned about ZeFrank and this channel over Thanksgiving dinner last week. It’s all my kids wanted to talk about and they’re both over 40 yrs old. Mr ZeFrank, you are hilarious and I learn so much at the same time. I watch every day now. Thank you.
I remember watching the sea pig video 9 nine years ago and somehow you still manage to inform and entertain me. Thank you Zefrank!
".....but they can crawl around in a way that looks just how vomiting feels...." Thank you, ZeFrank, for giving me new life goals.
So wait this isn’t how life feels to you?
@@erikjonromnes I think ya boy is gonna be crawling around trying to look like vomit
Most accurately somatic decriptive analogy!

These videos are an integral part of my life and I wouldn't exist today without them. Frank is obviously sent by the great Cthulhu.
It is videos like this that puts life's little vicissitudes in perspective.
No matter how bad life gets, at least I'm not a sea cucumber with a crab in my ass
I can't believe it's been 9 years since the Sea Pig episode! Thanks for visiting the sea cucumbers again!
honestly. time needs to slow right the fuck down~
What... No..... No can't be.....
No no no nooooo
i was about to say, didn't he do this one already. lol
Just realised I've been watching this channel for the best part of a decade...
Seapig!Seapig!Seapig!
As a bio major its so wild seeing how random the amount of love each species might get. Normal species with lots of bio lore? 5 min video. REALLY cool sea cucumber but little known? 13 minutes❤
are you also bald?
If it full of pee pee poo poo joke the video length would go longer than usual...
@@alphaxfang 🤯
Not too long ago, my mom was making something with eggplant and I told her theyre actually echinoderms, and that they're repated to se cucumbers. She was like "😮really?!" and I was like "no 😂"
I will never let her forget.
its hard to imagine the picture of zefrank narrating these vids. he sounds so much more scholarly that he looks
Fun fact: in italian these things are some times referred to as "stronzi di mare", which translates either literally to "sea sh*ts" or metaphorically "sea assh*les" (second one if we take the second meaning of the word "stronzo": inept, stupid, of malevolent). I have a vivid memory of some kid at my holiday place who once fished out one, got stinky water sprayed over his face, and promptly shouted: “now I get why they're called assh*les!”
sea shits and sea assholes, yum...
That's hilarious
This is gold 😂
Can we rename them to "sea shits" please
Yes. I’ll take the “stronzi di mare” special please.. that sounds fancy!
So glad you take the time to do these videos. You may not upload often, but every upload is a gem.
that is how the zefrank1 do
Whatever I'm doing, I get a huge smile when I see the notification that he's put out a new one.
Quality > quantity
Yes, even if it's a turd-gem 😆
I love these videos
i just found your channel thru your new Tarantula Facts video, i’m absolutely in love with this channel, these are essentially tiny documentaries with jokes scattered throughout and i can’t get enough
As a trained Latinist and considering my user name, I adore this episode.
Z Frank is so good at hilarious simile "Like a sneeze trying to put itself back together" "it looks like it feels to throw up" great stuff
My husband lost it 😂😂😂
TIL that a cloaca is an ass+. education is empowering.
I laughed so hard at those two lines!
The weird question Zefrank1 made me ask myself, "does a sea cucumber with teeth go to a dentist or a proctologist?"
Perhaps a dental proctologist?
Or a dentologist
Lol, what ever you do don't try to make pickles out of them it doesn't work out pretty lol
Not sure about that, but I'm pretty sure sea cucumber doesn't worry about being violated if he goes to prison. Just sayin'....
Well... That was a rabbit hole of thought I could have done without.
All my life I've had zero interest in sea life, insects, & science-y stuff in general... until stumbling onto this channel a few years ago. I love this guy's delivery. His voice & humor make it enjoyable to listen to & I actually learn new things. I'm almost 60, & I've learned more watching this channel than I ever did throughout all 12 years of schooling, LOL!
Another masterpiece. It’s so wild how this has become my main source of learning zoology. I hope one of these days you can do an entire Attenborough-length documentary, I think myself and others would love that.
I’d be so happy to watch every documentary. I’m ready for jokes and Jerry’s mistakes lol
The hero that I needed the most this Friday afternoon.
I love you and I want you to be the best version of yourself. You're stronger than you think. ❤️
@@robwaters8848 thanks man. Didn’t realize I needed that until you said it.

It's 1am here. Saturday.
@@44actual to paraphrase the great Kamina, 'believe in us, who believe in you!'
"...but they can crawl around in a way that looks just like how vomitting feels!"
I am amazed that this sentence actually makes sense.
It's honestly kind of accurate. Vomiting involves the muscles of your esophagus working backwards to push your stomach contents out (which is not what they're usually doing, and hence why you often feel sore after vomiting). That kind of motion is pretty much how that particular sea cucumber was moving.
I’ve just stumbled upon this channel and at first I thought, “what the heck am I watching?” And then hit subscribe and watched 10 more videos. Was crying with laughter at the end. Love it!
Zefrank usually has me cracking up throughout his videos, but him doing sound effects for the sea cucumber's butthole had me absolutely dying! 🤣
"looks just like vomiting feels" just broke me.. this man is a genius!
Me too! I had to pause the video. It's been a while since I've literally hurt from laughing so much 😂
"the sea cucumber has another sleeve up its butt"
This is the quality content I sub for.
Have you ever been a guests on any podcasts? I admit I don't know much about your background, but you seem knowledgeable enough to hold your own in many of the exotic animal keeping / breeding podcasts.
If he and the team, like the mysterious (and possibly inept or just a prankster) Jerry, weren't before, they definitely are by now. No matter how hard they may try to forget, some has to have gotten stuck.
I think he's been a guest at several lectures already. I can't recall which ones at the moment, but I once found a video here on UA-cam.
@@anonview Lectures are one thing, but I think he would flourish in the podcast format. I will have to look for those
I believe there is a TED talk, as well as a presentation to an Art's program, here on YT. He did the "Dear Kitten" voice work and does cameos for friends. Magnus the Therapy Dog is one of his YT friends. He is so incredibly intelligent, talented and has just the ze~niest humor it's just a stupendous package. Good luck and be well, good neighbor.
Ze, you should invite other UA-camr nature casters on and let Jerry have at 'em.
This is one of the most amazing educational lessons I have ever had. Its audience will appreciate how exquisitely written, smart, and flexible it is. Kudos to you!
Can I just say I love that you've taken the true facts videos to the next level. From casual fun facts to actually informational at an academic level. And still just as funny! Keep em coming Ze :)
Seeing a new Zefrank video is available is the UA-cam equivalent of getting a warm chocolate chip cookie. Great work as always. You need to be on National Geographic or BBC.
Warm chocolate chip nookie
He has done one. I think it was NG. I agree that mainstream could loose a bunch of it's puritanical overreach to embrace Zefrank and be the better for it. 😁👍
Yup! My feelings exactly.
Now that’s the kind of world I want to live in.
I CONCUR !!!
So, when I was a tiny thing, maybe 8 years old, my class went on a fieldtrip to the aquarium. There, we learned about the sea cucumber, and how it can "throw up its stomach." But we were also told that kissing a sea cucumber *without* it throwing up its stomach would give you ten years if good luck.
Long story short, when I was 8, I kissed a sea cucumber in front of all my classmates.
Did you get lucky? :P
@@phelan_pt Yeah how did the next 10 years go
@@michelles1250 We need answers man!
@@princessazulaofthefirenati5870 Did you or didn't you get lucky?!
LMAO I didn't expect this much interest.
The sea cucumber was a perfect gentle-creature, and kept its insides inside. But I think the ten years of good luck were delayed, cuz those didn't hit until a few years later. :p
6:14 Wait, it's "ZAY-frank"?! I've been saying "zee" for years
Being an old, old scuba diver, know these creatures pretty well, they are so fascinating. But Mr Zefrank, I learn so much more from, it must be the hysterical laughter that make me retain so much more. Love it...
I've been waiting for this ever since you briefly touched on them during the sea pig video. They're such fascinatingly weird creatures. Also, "Take that you asstropod!" Hilarious.
This episode got a few really good laughs out of me. Im so happy this series is back, I feel like I'm 12 watching the anglerfish episode again
The ostrich one and the marsupials video ALWAYS crack me up when I need a good laugh. 😂
Also the Nudibranchs.
"Imagine performing a 4 way high five..but using your genitals.." I nearly died with that one.
Personally, I love the carnivorous plant one!
By far the BEST narrator and writer on you tube! I don’t even like half the subjects but I listen to them completely because it’s so amusing and smart and just thoroughly entertaining. Kudos.
ZeFranks' videos never cease to amaze. He could do a whole series on the common trout and I'd be repeatedly watching each one. Incredible
Bwahaha, "murder chicken!" Absolutely brilliant stuff sir, thank you very much for the work you put into these amazing and fun videos. Always makes for a better day when you post, thanks again!
You managed something that I thought was impossible: you managed to 1-up your own video about sea cucumbers which was already excellent!
I think this was one of your best! Soooooo many good lines AND absolutely fascinating!! Thank you!
Rediscovered this guy and had to binge the rest of his catalog and I need MOAR
As a biologist (albeit an ecologist, not a marine zoologist) seeing sea cucumber species I'd never seen before and sea cucumber body plans I didn't know existed in those shapes was a thrill. Hard to tell some of them apart from nudibranches at first glance.
You are an absolute genius and a treasure to have on UA-cam. The "teaching" ,or child friendly versions let me share your style with my nieces. We love all of your content
That was beautiful!
Well written!
Marvelously preformed!
Thank you.
"Oh, crap! You know what that is. Every once in a while Satan releases a murder chicken..." Dead! 😂🤣🤣😂😂
The jokes and puns in this episode were all on point 🤣 i nearly spat out my food a couple times.
And that is how a sea cucumber do
"No jerry. We've seen quite enough of that filthy shrimp"
“That’s the cloaca - it’s sort of like an ass-plus”
I nearly did too, but that was because of how disgusting sea cucumbers unfortunately are
"I don't know about you, but I want to learn every single thing in the world."
Absolutely amazing episode, had me laughing almost the whole time, but that line hits home. Glad there's someone out there who gets it!
I cannot begin to express how much joy i have watching these videos.
I’ve never seen this channel before and I enjoy to watch documentaries sometimes so watching this not only gave me whiplash but also gave me the same feeling i got the first time i watched ‘How To Basic’: incredibly confused and entertained
Why have I not seen this guy before?? He's both educational AND hilarious!
This is how education should be taught, not by boring your class/audience, but by making it both interesting AND funny!
We'd LOVE to learn every day if stuff was represented this way for any and all subjects!
You've only just discovered the WONDER that is ZeFrank?? Congratulations! You have sooooo much lovely binging to do!
I would love for all of my grandchildren to have Teachers just like ZeFrank1, hell I wish all Teachers were as engaging, knowledgeable, & educationally entertaining. Can you imagine how many more kids would be encouraged to gain more knowledge, to be more curious, to ask more questions….,
@@lisae2389
Hell to the yeah!
@@Crimethoughtfull I only now did too! Algorithm took LONG enough to recommend this gem of a channel lately! >/
These videos are actually used in an increasing number of biology classes with cooler teachers xD
It's why he started making child friendly versions.
I’ve waited 9 years since learning about the sea pig to learn about the entire cucumber family. Thank you!!!
This episode is one of the funniest so far. Had lots a laughs while learning the most random facts about sea-cucumbers of all animals. Amazing work.
I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time
If Zefrank was a teacher at college I would never leave his classroom. love it 😀
That’s classroom a a a agoraphobia… And that’s good rhythm.
Hey just so you’re aware… your name sounds like nose puddle imitation.
I had a Marine Science teacher who was almost as cool as Zefrank. She would talk delightedly about worms that go in your brain. I loved that class.

9:03 - when you don't know what you ate but you got cramps and it feels sharp on the way out
Man, your writing is always incredible, but this one has been particularly hilarious! I think it's often understated how amazingly humour works as a supporting element when teaching, especially with how well you integrate it into the actual facts without breaking the flow and how everyman they are, nothing intentionally flying over anyone's heads, because "Ass+" and "looks like how it feels to vomit" have taken up long-term lodging in my skull for the foreseeable future. Brilliant work! And the sponsor of today's video...
Ze Frank is one of the best channels on UA-cam, hands down. Thank you for creating years of hilarious and educational content for us to enjoy.
Every single video you make is equal levels educational, comedic, and weird. Also Asstropod is my favorite word now tysm
Through tears; note to self: While laid up recovering from two broken ribs, no matter how exited you are to see a new Zefrank video (yayyy!) do not watch it yet. Just, be kind-er to yourself and save it until later.
Ow! Seat belt broke them in an accident or you got kicked by a horse? Or just good old kicked by a human?
Maybe it was the... MURDER CHICKEN 🐔. Sam Nelson I hope you feel better, broken ribs are difficult, can't be immobilized like other bones. Hug a pillow if you can't help watching Zefrank😂. Laughter is the best medicine but in this case it comes with side effects. Feel better!
Most things that brought joy 1-2 decades ago don´t even have a dark corner in my memory anymore but for some reason zefranks work is so good that I find - for example - this episode to be even better than some that came before. Weird thing is I think that about every episode.
Nature commentary honestly never gets old
Somehow cuttlefish is still my top video of ZeFrank
This is the most amazing educational lesson I have ever had. So beautifully written, funny and do intellectually accommodating to its audience. Thank you. Exceptional.
12:12
First time in a long time I've been so caught off-guard.
11:37 “whats that old hippie doing in the ocean?”
hilarious.
tears of joy. love this channel.
Your videos are comedy gold. I don't know how I didn't see them until now
"sea cucumbers have another sleeve up their butt" and "this looks like how vomiting feels" are classic lines, thanks for uploading!
9:15 I'm dying... Zefrank, you crazy.... lol
I love you, zefrank1. Please never stop being your hilariously weird yet educational self. I hate baseball caps--but that one turtle video you have with the "No, that's a cat," running around in one bit makes me smile a little EVERY time I see one, and that's very often! Thanks for making an eyesore into a free laugh!
zefrank, you sure make learning a blast! I can't tell you how much I wish I had teachers that were as funny and interesting as you back when I was in school.
"A sneeze that tried to put itself back together." rotfl! This is why we love you!!!!!!
6:55 *murder chicken* 👹
This is informative and hilarious all at once. I love this channel!
Learned a lot about cucumbers under the sea. As always luv the humor 🤣
"In this shot you can see that fat stiffy really filling up the palm of that man' hand." Never change, Frank.
How can you be so entertaining and so informative at the same time? Never stop doing this...... again.
This is the best way to learn something new. I love the Voice paired with the humour. Definitely earned a sub and a like
Love this video, just like all of them!!! Thanks, Ze!
