Marine Mammals: Champions of the Deep
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лют 2025
- Beneath the surface of the ocean exists an incredibly hostile world - an icy world immersed in eternal darkness where the pressure is phenomenal. This world is the abyssal domain - the largest habitat on our planet.
Yet, some air-breathing, young-feeding marine mammals, like us, spend much of their time in this dark world. Scientists are now discovering that the depths reached by these ocean giants are much greater than previously thought.
Using transmitter beacons worn by the animals, abyssal cameras and 3D scan images, this film accompanies and illustrates a contemporary scientific revolution. Constructed according to a dramatic progression towards the abyss - from the shallowest to the deepest dive - it brings to the forefront the often unknown animals and their remarkable physiological adaptations to the pressures of the great depths.

❤Thanks for uploading❤
I am the director of this show filmed in 2014-2015. To give a feedback to some of the comments, none of the figures provided in this documentary have been exceeded as of today... at least, on scientific records with tags. I agree that sperm whales probably hold the title of the deepest diving marine mammals, but this has not yet been formely proven. Interestingly, some tags now include miniature (30 grams) video camera with Led lights, but their video quality is poor and, in the abyss, they mostly see what happens just in front of them. However, deploying an array of them simultaneously could bring interesting results. More soon, as we are working on it in collaboration with scientists !
Bonjour monsieur Loyer, un très grand merci pour votre sublime documentaire et tous les autres comme « Céphalopodes le règne des ventouses ».
J’aimerais savoir si durant le tournage vous avez pu discuter avec les scientifiques des baleines à bec du genre hyperoodon et Beriardus qui sont aussi de très grands apnéistes.
Quant aux cachalots j’ai eu le privilège à plusieurs reprises d’évoluer à leur côté avec des scientifiques, il semblerait bien que leurs incroyables performances soient tout de même dépassées par celle du ziphius cavirostris et ce grâce à un métabolisme pouvant fonctionner en anaérobie plus longtemps (Les études françaises et anglaises disponibles sur Internet vont aussi en ce sens).
En tou tcas une nouvelle fois, chapeau et merci d’avoir pu mettre en lumière ces grands animaux si peu connus du grand public 🙏🏻.
@@Soilec Merci François pour vos commentaires et encouragements. Nous avions considéré à l'époque l'opportunité de les inclure, mais, ayant déjà les mesoplodon de Blainville et baleines à bec de Cuvier, nous les avons écarté, par peur de faire des doublons. Il existe certainement des papiers qui valent le détour, et nous travaillons actuellement sur des projets qui consistent à laisser ces animaux... se filmer eux-mêmes. A suivre !
@@SaintThomasProductions
Effectivement c’est compréhensible d’autant plus que mis à part Hal Whitehead avec les hyperoodon dans le Gully canadien, il n’y a pas beaucoup de chercheurs étudiant ces populations. Des individus se filmant eux-mêmes, super projet !! Façon crittercam en plus évoluée je présume ?
Envisagez-vous d’en faire un futur documentaire ?
Excellent documentary. I was wondering how the elephant seals could navigate and hunt in the near-darkness of such depths without the benefit of biosonar - it seems that recent research at UC Santa Cruz (and undoubtedly others previously) has revealed fascinating use of their whiskers.
Excellent docu.. images are stunning. I'd love to know what camera and glass ecosystem was used for the production of this film.. thank you!
Спасибо за видео❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love this, I interview some of the most well known scientists, creatives & enthusiasts around the world every week.
I'm so glad that I saw your comment , your channel is amazing ! I'm subbed now.
@@rottweilerfun9520 thank you so much! I'll have new episodes soon.
It's nice to see something measured in Eiffel Towers, rather than the usual school buses.
Mhank your soo much appreciated thank you for the opportunity you have been.❤

What incredible animals. What a gift of nature
They aren't a gift. They don't belong to us. We share THEIR earth.
He said they're a gift to nature, not us
Nous sommes égoïste et voleur de la nature. On prend sans demander...on vide nos océan on détruit la nature..vive les protecteurs de la vie...
These animals are even more amazing in comparisons with human athletes. The elephant seals and beaked whales are diving in a far more viscous medium than humans trained to run in the best class, but the runners would require about ten vigorous minutes to travel as deep as these mammals dive, but without the hunt and return.
Think about running your very hardest for ten minutes; then imagine another mammal swimming the same distance, but in the dark, while hungry and hunting for food, all without breathing, and then BACK!!? That is amazing and astonishing and head-slapping and unbelievable and incredible and I want to be them!
Thanks for these, need to show these in school.
Breathtakingly amazing! Scientists have come such a long way in a very short time. It was only a few years ago depth of dives & breath holding were mainly guesswork. Personally just watching, even just imagining the deep deep dives of these marine mammals gives me panic attacks. 49:02

Wow ❤❤so beautiful to see all this things 😍
The ultra modern fishing boats didnt loose 30% from their catch to predators,they steal 70% from the fish which belong natural to the predators!
wait you do eat fish right hypocrite ? yes that what you are a hypocrite.
Nicely put
You spoke an absolute truth!!!
*continues eating fish*. i wonder if killer whale meat taste good ? anyone tried it yet ?
Well yeah because it's the whales territory, if anything 30% is more than fair
EXCELLENT VIDEO . . COOL AF GRAPHICS . . THANKYOU FOR THE CONTENT !!!!!!!!
Waww se jeant fontastic good working thank you very macht majic
AWESOME DOCUMENTARY MUST SEE.
Merci merci merci beaucoup pour le partage je m abonne direct .🙏🙏🙏🙏😍😍😍😍😍😍
Love this channel thank for soo much
Cool 🏖🏖🏖🏖🏖

How amazing with the scientists working now a days.
لله في خلقه شؤون.سبحان الله !.تبارك الله احسن الخالقين.
amazing record 2h44 mn and 2992 meters deep - excellent documentaire !!!!
Orcas are so magnetic.i love nature and God gave us such a beautiful life I hope we try to take care of all the animals.they should be all cherishedlike God and the angels
god had no part in this.
Did you man majestic?
Great divers! Incredible animals!
thanks
Very well done, Ty.
Thank you soo much!
Great documentary
What fantastic video love it. great job u guys 100%
سبحان من خلق و أبدع ❤
Watching from Kenya time 00:36
Hola, watching from Chile time 19:03..
01:33 just few minutes after you 😂....kenya
I had no idea elephant seals where such deep divers until now
Muuuch love
Great 👍🏽
Excellent documentaire !
I've always thought how fascinating that fish or mammals can see underwater
wow the cgi with natural backround, great!
Wow😮 cool☃️
Super Doku, vielen Dank!
AWESOME!
Video quá dỉnh👍👏👍🇻🇳🔔🇻🇳🔔❤❤
wow!
i love this!!!
15:30. These ultra-modern fishing boats don’t just lose 30% of their catch to predators - they’re actually stealing 70% of the fish that rightfully belong to the natural predators
SoubhanAllah💟 wAlhamdoulillahi Rabbil A'lamine☝🏿

Waauw keren bngt
i like how the music constantly changes into manace when Orcas turn on spotlight🙉
are amazing creatures, but they are also facing many challenges. One of the biggest problems is that they are often seen as pests by fishermen, because they sometimes steal fish from fishing nets. However, orcas play an important role in the marine ecosystem, and they are also and social animals. We need to do more to protect orcas and other marine mammals, and to raise awareness of their importance.
One way to protect orcas is to for the fish that they lose to orcas. This could be done through that subsidize . We can also involve the of the importance of marine mammals and sustainable fishing.
Another important step is to develop better methods for identifying and tracking individual orcas. This could be done using biometric and DNA identification methods. A common database of all known orcas could help scientists to better understand their populations and movements, and to identify and track individual orcas that are at risk. I support the idea of a that would include the entire hydrosphere
By taking these steps, we can help to protect orcas and other marine mammals, and ensure that they continue to thrive in our oceans Together with us.
truly stunning
It's human who steal fish from whales not the other way around
VERY INFORMATIVE ONLY ONE QUESTION I HAVE NEVER SEEN CAMERA GETTING MOUNTED WITH ANY TYPE OF GLUE SEEMS LIKE IT LEFT A SQUARE UGLY PATCH ON THEIR HEAD ? WILL THIS EVAPORATE WOULDNT THINK SO OR THE CAMERA WOULDNT HAVE STAYED ON FOR SUCH A TIME IS THERE ANY OTHER WAY TO GATHER INFO & FILM THESE WONDERFUL CREATURES?
@5:51 i mean, which whale doesn't spend most time under water
Đại dương còn nhiều bí ẩn chưa khám phá được❤
Technically the deepest diving mammal was a Cuvier’s Beaked Whale, that was documented over 3,000 meters or just shy of 2 miles under the surface however I think in general this title should go to the sperm whale, as they are the most common species of mammal associated with the deep sea!
This is an incredible species of whales i used to think that people who did this kind of research were hunters but they are not they just trying to learn about how these whales live and its amazing i never heard of these kind of whales before
I understand why they do it ,but the part where they were chasing the Sperm Whales hurt my heart. I hated seeing them so scared.
Prédateur le cachalot ? Le seul prédateur de ce documentaire c'est l'homme !
Vrai
I can't help but think the tagging event could be quite traumatic to these beautiful, intelligent creatures. Would be fantastic if there was a non-invasive way to garner this info 🤷♀️
I thoroughly agree! If we want to know something about some part of the world, we should not cause it harm or stress or death to it. The only solution I can provide now is to leave it alone unless you can a truly non-destructive way of measuring. Enough spearing, stealing, piercing, killing things other than ourselves to gain knowledge. We have done so much damage. I would prefer to go without more knowledge on them, to know that we are not stressing, hurting, or killing them. We've done enough damage to other species.
good that your taking their fish also while provide easy meals.
The Norwegian fisherman are so kind to catch, feed those Orcas and whales.
Love the documentary of the sperm whales 🐋. They are smart . Stealing the fisherman’s smorgasbord. Killer whales are highly intelligent beautiful mammals . Thank you for this incredible documentary.
These humans are destryoing the ocean...
Fantastic documentary. I feel for close captions readers though, they are soooo wrong.
Oh my gosh it's so terrible...
Iqsi,seu ❤❤❤
It can be done more safely?
Wow 😳
It was all - - - until
24:15
Smart fish, dinner on the line, just have to grabe 'em.
Fishermen should be pretty happy that they are "assisting an endangered species. The fishermen can afford to loose a few fish, since approximately1\4 of there catch goes to wast
7:10 they can tag these whales with suction cups and they stay on even while diving? When we use suction cups for chimes and other things on windows they always fall off
I remember 25 years ago longlineing
How can I Study This In Lunar time. This Is very interesting
I really do wish there was more actual footage. ☹️
If the elephant seals dive to hunt at such depths, how do they find their prey. They surely cannot see in the absence of light. Do they also use echo location as whales and dolphins do. Or perhaps their eyes are capable of seeing an animal's florescence? Be an interesting answer I am sure.
From THAILAND every day
Fishermen ARE predators.

I was lucky enough to look eyeball to eyeball with a Sperm Whale , twenty years ago and I'm still in awe.
Were you in a boat?
What's with these subtitles? They look they've been through Google translate a few times to get back to English.
That said when there is a conversation going on in another language, use subtitles instead of trying to dub over it. It's stupid and annoying to have to listen to.
Neither humans nor angels can design and create lifeforms like God can. We are arrogant enough to try...try and fail.
😄 you think everything was magically created by a man in the sky! Lol.
@@dnsimin What is more absurd than nothing creating something?
goofy ass comment
I fully agree😊
You are the predator, not the Wales
Why didn't they talk about blue wales or did I miss it?
Une personne a besoin de nous tous..... Watson.... Charle... lui un homme exemplaire... Sans les mammifères marins la vie sera terminé pour les humains.....
i think its great that the whales are beating the humans at their own game. lol, after all its the whales food , humans are poaching and should be sunk.
If you look at pond water, there are on a smaller scale predators swimming around killing things just like the ocean predators.
I wonder if you look at the Universe, if black holes are just predators going around killing stuff.
❤❤❤❤❤
I cant believe orca can dive 1100m
The fishers are in the whale's house. So who is the thief?

Bonjours je suis prestataire nautique à Mayotte.
Nous observons ces espèces souvent au même endroit. Si cela peux aider, aucune étude de faite sur elles...mais j'ai repéré leurs spot de prédilection.

I'm curious as to how the Elephant Seal finds the squid in the deep dark water. Do the Squid light up ?
That harpoon tag on the sperm whales looked painful.
