Great informative footage delivered with such humorous narration.. thanks for capturing the hatching off the sack looking egg, never seen before, and the saw fish!! Amazing beautiful creatures.
Your videos are the best! I enter a zen-like state through the amazing music and great facts. I think it would be cool to be a marine biologist, and watching your videos further reinforces that. Keep it up!
In 1964 I was five years old we lived on a boat in Kingston Harbor Jamaica but we lived in Port Royal yes the port royal in fact we lived in a marina the very small marina that was only like 200 feet from the seawall that went down into the ocean at the epicenter of the earthquake true story... manta rays would be catapulting out of the water out in the bay and you can hear their slaps as they landed from miles away every once in a while someone will hook one just fishing off the boat dock and one time an old woman and a bunch of Jamaicans got one all the way in and when it came up it was like 8 feet around and they just cut the line and it’s slowly swam off even at five years old I still remember it.....Very beautiful and majestic...... thank you for your videos Jonathan the ICON‼️®™️
@@BlueWorldTV thanks for asking I live in New York City and work here but I actually own a home in Denver but the works in NYC thanks for your feedback I know how busy you are at least I can imagine absolutely fantastic videos every one of them as always...... I C O N‼️®™️
William Cox Inside trivia fact: This Blue World segment was created for season 4 out of a variety of skate & ray footage we have collected over several years making the show. Since we had no specific "stand ups" of me talking like we usually do, we decided to try the green screen effect and shoot the standups as overlays on the video. We enjoyed it so much, we decided to make the Shark Academy series with the same technique. So in effect this segment was the one that spawned Shark Academy.
again, I love this show!! the music the person talking in the beginning and of course Jonathan! ( i hope there is no mistakes in ur name ) the way you present the show is awesome. I like whales and I am from saudi arabia. There is no animal caring like here or most places. I have visited new England's Aquarium because of you! and I loved it! My dream is to see the BLUE WHALE and hopefully i can see him. can you tell me where should I go, even if there a chance to see the blue whale, I would go ! thank you!!!! keep up
I recommend doing a video on the angleshark. they are very endangered so I would do it soon so it doesn't become extinct. they also are a type of flat shark or really look like one
This might be a dumb question, but can't water transfer electricity, sooo if the torpedo ray electrocutes something would it transfer it through the water all around it??
Very informative and beautiful video!i love to see they swim.like a lady with a long wavy skirt .haha sorry for the male skates and rays!all looks great!
that torpedo ray in BlueWordTV video is the Pacific torpedo ray. BUT some electric torpedo ray such as the Atlantic Torpedo Ray can produce 240 Volts to 380 Volts or sometime 720 Volts with 30 Ampere. Your electrical equipment only have 13-15 ampere.So some electric ray don't have any predators :))
I came to learn only about Manta rays, since they're one of my most favorite animals in the world, and I ended up discovering many more amazing rays in the process! I have a new found liking for the Torpedo ray! Thank your for the amazing video! You've got a new fan/ subscriber.
I love all creatures of the Seas. This video was awesome! I've been waiting for a new one and wasn't disappointed. :) Could you do a video possibly on Wild Orcas?
I learned a ton in this video! Usually I just watch these videos to reaffirm things I’ve already heard and see the wonderful photography, but this time around I found out a bunch of new stuff!
Kwazii: The octopod is secure as ( gets zapped) Ray: Whoa! What's the big idea steppin' on my tail like that? First this big orange thing drops out of the sky, and now these guys are walking all over me while I'm resting on the sand! It makes me so mad! I can ( zaps) Captain Barnacles: Easy now we didn't to startle you. We were on our way to visit a friend when our ship crashed.
This is a wonderfully informative video! The only have 2 things I would say is that some deep dwelling sharks, like the cookie cutter shark have fully functional spiracles as well as wobbegong and Angel sharks. Also there is a difference between a saw shark and a saw fish, Pristiformes being saw fish and Pristiformiformes being saw sharks!
Really awesome video, this was so helpful..I'm pretty sure you highlighted the sharks nostril when you were referring to it's spiracle(s), since spiracles are posterior to the eyes.. And the spiracle isn't really like a nostril, just confusing because the rays nostrils are ventral by its mouth. Also, the sawfish uses spiracles, but so do many benthic sharks, so that's not why it's a ray
Ocean rays are fun a lot a lot, they are really really beautifully talented in all that they like all the other animals ah! Ooh lah! I love it ah!😌🎤🎧🏞️🌅🌊😎💗💗💗💗
For the sake of your hard labour, we are lucky to wacth such a bewildering sea creatures. I can't thank you enough. May Allah( God ) bless you. ❤️& respect from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
There is an error in this otherwise great video. In discussing shark spiracles, the nares are incorrectly identified as spiracles. Spiracles (when present) are located behind the eyes.
hey what an amazing scene its like haven under water i like your photography and videoraphy skills can i request some thing please !! can u make a new video containing small colorful fishes or a new aquarium video i like those whale shark video of Georgia aquarium i became a huge fan of yours hats off sir :D thank you :)
I know this is off topic of the video, But if people are capable of catching a Whale shark, like the ones at Atlanta why cant they catch a Basking shark?
Imagine being as cool as Johnathan Bird! Couldn't be me
I'm going to tell my kids that! They aren't as cool as me! :-)
@@BlueWorldTV I Tell My Kids Nobody Is Cooler Then Johnathan Bird
Don’t forget there is a 3rd cousin of the shark the chimera.
Great informative footage delivered with such humorous narration.. thanks for capturing the hatching off the sack looking egg, never seen before, and the saw fish!! Amazing beautiful creatures.
He forgot about the Chimera though
did anyone else want to dust the torpedo ray off?
Me
Woopty Do me
Woopty Do
Nah don't want to electrocuted
Yea it was really bothering me
RAYS ARE SO FRICKIN CUTE MY GOD I LOVE THEM AND IVE SEEN THIS VIDEO LIKE TEN TIMES
rays are really interesting
Such a fun channel. Whenever I feel blue or bored, I can come here and there's always something beautiful and soothing to watch. :)
Don’t forget the 3rd cousin of the shark the chimera.

manta rays would be catapulting out of the water out in the bay and you can hear their slaps as they landed from miles away every once in a while someone will hook one just fishing off the boat dock and one time an old woman and a bunch of Jamaicans got one all the way in and when it came up it was like 8 feet around and they just cut the line and it’s slowly swam off even at five years old I still remember it.....Very beautiful and majestic...... thank you for your videos Jonathan the ICON‼️®™️
Amazing how things from our childhood stay with us forever. Where are you living now?

The longer format allowed you to segue more data along with your usual hands on hosting technique. I quite enjoyed it.

These are in my top 5 sea creatures... My God, they're fascinating. ☺️

Beautiful video, really great information. My fave is the spotted ray incredible critturs. Thanks so much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
"And while they're not as well known, they are just as fascinating." I would say more so.
شكرا جزيلا لك على هذه القناة ... معلومات مذهلة تقدمها عن اسماك القرش شكرا
Beautiful!!!!
I love wingy rays. Underrated sea animal. Shame people only know the stingy ones, and not the other day types. Bat Rays are cool too.
Thank you for the video some of these rays i've never heard of like the torpedo ray
Torpedo Ray can shock 240 volts !!!!
I do like the eagle ray and the manta ray
they are so beautiful
Maybe in a future episode you could go diving on the wreck of the Lusitania.
the eagle spotted rays!!!
Mr. Ray, is that you?
Thank You so much for replying
I recommend doing a video on the angleshark. they are very endangered so I would do it soon so it doesn't become extinct. they also are a type of flat shark or really look like one
Brilliant.
Beautiful Nature. Nature is the only truth & truth is the only authority 🙏🏽.
Rays are my favorite fish and i like sharks too!
I LOVE YOUR INTRO
jinyoung baek it’s 3 sec long
Awesome! Can you do a video about Slash? Thanks!
I LOVE THE SEA THE JUNGLE ,CAVES AND FORIST AND ALL THE ANIMALS THAT LIVE THERE EXPECT SNACE AND SPIDER
ruzena sarkozyova what is a snace?
Awesome! Can you do a video about slash thanks!
Wow, hadn't heard of most of those. Question, though - if sharks can't breathe through their sphericals (sp?) what purpose do they serve?
R MH Some sharks can breathe through them, mostly bottom dwellers like Wobbegongs.
R MH I have read that it provides a direct flow of oxygen to the eyes and brain for most sharks although I am not sure the benefit of such a thing
Holly Chandler So, a passive air intake kind of thing? Huh. Sharks are cool, but they are also so strange! Thanks for answering. : )
why are manta rays so friendly? as well as the whale shark (well as much as it can take being friendly)
***** My guess is that they are highly intelligent as fish go and they are curious.
BlueWorldTV
so even the wild animals can seem tame?
+Tsumefan2 Manta Rays and Whale Sharks have no interest of us, they have a completely different diet from other sharks
LightningToothless
so that's why they are so chill?
Maybe. They are also curious.
This might be a dumb question, but can't water transfer electricity, sooo if the torpedo ray electrocutes something would it transfer it through the water all around it??
Karoline1210aka in a small range, yes.
Very informative and beautiful video!i love to see they swim.like a lady with a long wavy skirt .haha sorry for the male skates and rays!all looks great!
AND INTRESTED IN EVERITHING EVEN SPACE
I love it
I love ur vids
Pretty lit.
Plz do a vid for wild orcas
Is the eagle rays wingspan the same as the eagle
I wonder, if a torpedo ray can electrocute its prey, does that mean that it can't get clean by the 'cleaning' fish?
more vids please
What do you think about the stingrays
I think stingrays are super cool animals.
Amo il mare belle riprese peccato che non si parla italiano.
I like dollfins
I like sharks too!!!!!
spinosaurus ate a type of sawfish.
Jonathan can you go visit and swim in the Amazon river please make a video there please
that man looks like someone from coldplay
The handsome one I hope.
What about chimeras there another relative of the shark.
iv seen the whale shark
I,like,thes,
the sharks can breath only if they are moving?
We did a shark Academy episode on shark breathing.
Can you make a stream in the ocean
Do guitarfish

Skate babies: I know I must camouflage myself in order to survive
Human babies: I must cry rapidly for no odd reason.
I work at Sea life (not sea world) and watching these videos makes for some interesting facts for the guests I speak to!! Thank you!
I love all creatures of the Seas. This video was awesome! I've been waiting for a new one and wasn't disappointed. :) Could you do a video possibly on Wild Orcas?
The sea is such a beautiful place! I can't wait to explore it and learn more about it!!
You can say that again!
Anna C Same, when I graduate and move out I hope to move to southern America maybe in Cali or somewhere next to the sea so I can go exploring often.
WOW!
Skates and rays are so great!
They look so diferent from each other!
And that new born skate was so cute!
Herowebcomics mope
saw someone get bitten by a skate and it bite them
lol
no lol
too much blood
The scientific term for this species is the Sea Pancakes :P
molly winegar now we only need to find the maple syrup fish
No it's not sea pancakes,It's sea flap flaps
Bounty Hunter actually it’s majestic sea flap flap
@@elonmosque4294 oh okay
Thats cute 😅
Great video! I like the informative approach a lot.
6:24 Mr.Ray!
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
What’s your favorite Batoyed mine the manta ray because they’re the biggest also they’re really friendly
I like Mantas too, I liked how one was in Super Mario 64. (One was also in prerelease screenshots for New Super Mario for DS.)
Those skates look like xenomorph facehuggers.
On a video I saw a hammerhead catch a stingray for food when it count it a tiger shark tried to still it
RIP STEVE IRWIN..... NO HATE TO STINGRAYS AS IT CANNOT BE BLAMED FOR MISCOMMUNICATION.
someone on Discord just introduced me to your channel and I've subscribed... sorry I was late being able to find this channel
Wow great video man, swamn with manta's was great fun, keep up the good work and educating me and many others XD
I learned a ton in this video! Usually I just watch these videos to reaffirm things I’ve already heard and see the wonderful photography, but this time around I found out a bunch of new stuff!
Wow such an informative video👌... I just love your channel♥️♥️♥️... It is always like coming with you for a deep sea dive!!!
I'd love something about the beluga sturgeon! have you done sth like that before?
***** Not yet
The best channel, most amazing, beautiful.. My best wishes to entire team of Blue World.
Thank you so much 😀

Thank you for up-close shots of all these beautiful animals. I see them when I dive, but not as personnel as this! (:
For the sake of your hard labour, we are lucky to wacth such a bewildering sea creatures. I can't thank you enough.
May Allah( God ) bless you. ❤️& respect from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
This was Very cool and informative! Thanks so much for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Can we all just take a moment and admire how STINKING COOL Jonathan is?
Yes, we should do that! :-)
There is an error in this otherwise great video. In discussing shark spiracles, the nares are incorrectly identified as spiracles. Spiracles (when present) are located behind the eyes.
My knowledge increased about these sweet marine animals, you guys are the best, but you guys certainly knew that!
Have you done goblin sharks or really weird looking fish like the frog fish?
We have featured the frogfish in a couple videos. Check out our episode on the goosefish! Now that is a weird one.
These creatures are amazing i remember going out to the channel islands last year and seeing some manta rays surfacing to eat
Jonathon
Love your shows. One question? You get close with Tiger and Bull sharks, why not white ?
Thanks
Dive operations won't allow it.
You live one of my dreams. thank you
I call rays sea angels!!! Sharky xxx... Good name for them, they're so beautiful!!!
Woohoo another Blue World. My 5 year old daughter will be happy when she gets home from school today.
hey what an amazing scene its like haven under water i like your photography and videoraphy skills can i request some thing please !! can u make a new video containing small colorful fishes or a new aquarium video i like those whale shark video of Georgia aquarium i became a huge fan of yours hats off sir :D thank you :)
I mean, cockroaches are mantises’ evolutionary cousin, and they eat each other.
Skates and rays 🐳🐋🐬🐟🐠🐡🐌🦑🦐🦀🐚🐙🦈
I say again, another great video with great information. Keep it coming Jonathan
Great segment BlueWorldTV ! we are just starting out with our web series for Ocean Youth and your channel is a real inspiration!
I know this is off topic of the video, But if people are capable of catching a Whale shark, like the ones at Atlanta why cant they catch a Basking shark?
Jayson Sumner They can, but why catch it without someplace to put it? As far as I know, nobody has ever kept one in captivity.
Saw a skate in the surf near the beach on LBI today. Avery cool considering they almost never come near the coast! Gave me quite a scare!
+BlueWorldTV I have a question! Do any of your relitives play minecraft :)
My kids used to play it a lot.
