Respect to our fallen brother.
Just like us. I mean myself. 🤣
@@budisudarsono6991 Hang in there, soldier! 😂🤘

🤣🤣🤣
" No wonder he was deflated " 😂
Gotta add that to my dictionary
The cracked me up so brutally... still gasping for air!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤭
🥁 🥁🥁🤣🤣🤣
I'm always impressed at the wildlife photographers ability to bring us episodes like this!
... photographers' ability.
Plural possessive.
Can’t wait until Sunday hello from bbc planet earth biggest Canadian fan ;)
@@majoroldladyakamom6948 Yep, typing too fast because I got interrupted!
Hear hear
And so am I, Alana.
2:02 The way he comes peeking around the corner is comedy gold 😂
The things some animals find attractive is hysterical 😂
exactly
I was thinking the same hearing some turkeys gobbling about the other day.
Im straight up scarred!!
some women do lips improvements , also scary stuff
Agreed!
Amazes me how a fat bank account makes someone attractive all of a sudden! 😂😂😂
this is fascinating. also the footage they get is insane, especially under water
Absolutely insane.
Even the seals understand consent!
😂
😭🤣🤣🤣
Not elephant seals and dolphins.
That is not consent. that is her period lol
Not when they take advantage of penguins!
I felt his pain. Been there before, keep your nose inflated my man. You'll get there.
😂😁
Female seal: (talking on phone) uh huh.....uh huh.....yeah.....girl I told him to get gone cuz his balloon wasn't big enough for me
Lmao 😂
"Impressed?"
"No."
[Shows sac] "What about now?"
"EWW, FREAK, GET LOST!"
😂
😂😂
The worst she can say is no
The female seal:
They:A sharp nip on the "tail"...
Us: A sharp slap in the crowd.
It’s been a while since good footage of hooded seals has been recorded. Amazing animals with the males sporting a unique feature! Reminds me of frigatebirds and their inflatable throat pouch.
So cool can’t wait for Sunday to see what else we get to see
Reminded me of a camel
Camels also do something similar with their tongues
@@Ambelica it’s not a tongue. It’s a sac called a dulla.
@@allstarpterosaur850 thank you for the info !
I just love it: the stunning pictures, the humourous comments! Absolutely wonderful!
" and that means no "
Some of us know how that feels.
No means yes and yes means more...💡
@@salop4liife620 Nope.
@@salop4liife620 Don't be stupid
@@InsoIence no just means you gotta force her harder
@@salop4liife620 never
At this point, I may as well give this method a try.
At this point, I might actually be impressed by it
😳😳
🙄🙄
hey girl
* *honks massive clown nose* *
They look like such powerful swimmers! So graceful underwater. Maybe not as much on land… 😄
“No wonder he is deflated” David you’re taking the piss 😂😂😂
This is absolutely alien. I love it.
looks cgi
"An inflatable nose can be used to intimidate a rival" life advice i will take with me.
1:25 this moment looks like something on a Hollywood or by CGI it’s so perfect 😮
BBC team is amazing. Always records story very well. 👍
Yes, everything about the English is the best.
Agreed. Compared to other channels, I also like documentaries by BBC earth, they always put interesting stories together
Nature and Animals are never boring to watch whats going on, but this was unexpecting !
Imagine the diver who filmed underwater🥶👍and the crew on the Ice.🎬
So true!!
The diver has no job and plenty of time taking useless pics
@@nasirnazeer6582 🤣🤣🤣
@@nasirnazeer6582 😂you are kidding...
It is mostly drones and underwater mini toy subs with cameras attached that catch these great pics and videos , most of the time it's not a person but a machine , you really think a diver can sit it those waters for hours just to get few seconds to minutes of good video 😏
I first try bringing flowers, then use this as a last attempt
Flowers as in a bunch of seaweed and coral😆😂
Dang my guy. She hit him with the restraining order lol
seal always felt like an imaginary animal to me when I was a kid. Like who would've thought about a combination of a dog and a fish
Amazing! Love the commentary too, it's so witty, and I think there is some sympathy with the young seal...
The seal "spy hopping" lol
She said “Boy Bye”😆😭
Show off! Nature is incredible
Apparently for seals, size matters
How amazing! I am absolutely impressed. Thank you for keeping us informed of the wonderful wildlife we know so little about!
Until I saw this video today I never knew that something like this existed,
lol the way he pops his head out of the water tho
Even seals understand, 'no, means no'.
So pretty much his thing wasn’t big enough so he was denied and hurried away in embarrassment and rejection… *relatable* 😭
Amazing Nature 👌❤️
Absolutely amazing
This is so intriguing my goodness
I feel your pain youngster 😂
The narrator can feel that guy's pain.
Do the inflatable nose and flap under the nostril in any way relate to their ability to hold their breath underwater? Evolutionarily speaking, do they serve any purpose, which makes these features, in particular, so important for impressing potential mates?
I think it's just intersexual selection. It could possibly be a negative thing for males (as it is with male peacocks) but I don't know for sure :)
It may be completely useless or even bad.
Oftentimes, sexual selection degenerates as evolution goes on.
To understand why, I recommend you look into Goodhart's law.
I'll sum it up for you. It's about tests. Basically, when a new test turns out to be very good, it will first become more popular (take for example those big standardised exams to get into university) but what happens next is that the test becomes bad again. Why?
Well, as the test becomes more and more popular, more people become aware of it and they start focusing their studying and training on the test itself instead of preparing for whatever skill the test was testing.
The same happens in nature, there's some of it in every species.
We can use these seals as an example.
Imagine the first time some female elephant seal randomly became attracted to males with a deep voice.
That's a new and successful test! Deep voice = big male = strong male = stronger offspring. (Female mammals NEED to be selective because they have limited and costly chances to reproduce, if they mate without being picky, their pups might not be strong enough and the mother's genes will die forever.)
So okay, generations go on and females with that taste have an offspring that simply survives better, it's good, it spreads, it becomes popular.
But now, how did the test degenerate? Welp males developed the big nose to add depth to the noise they can produce, and it attracts females selecting for that trait just as good as being bigger. Males became good at the test, the test is now bad.
The balloon nostril may be useless in a similar fashion. But maybe it's also a way to show health with that nice red colour. Remember, even obsolete tests may retain some sort of good core.
It’s not “useless” it’s used to mate
If the male doesn’t have one the female might not even look it’s way
@@RightWitit that's just uselessness with extra steps lol
You're merely shifting the uselessness of the trait to the uselessness of the method of selection the females are adopting - and calling that useful.
The question remains: why do females want their future offspring to inherit that seemingly useless trait?
Excellent series by the BBC
Nature is astounding.
Outside of the awesomeness of the nature aspect of the video, can’t help but also admire their on-point zombie sound effects.
Elephant seals, males in particular, seem straight out of Spirited away ahaha
Great work Thank youU
I love how animals understand No means No!
Not all by any means. Ducks are notorious for mounting anything and everything, including raping females to death.
Exactly
They don’t, that’s what they are killing each other constantly. Even domestic animals like cats kill other cats when mating. The female can kill the male cat after doing it.
not ducks
not dolphins
Really gives new meaning to “big balls,” huh.
My all time favorite Narrator of all time ❤
“The worst thing she could say is no”
A sharp nip on the tail:
wonderful!! thank you
This voice really fits these wild documentaries
Talk about being puffed up in pride!!🤣
Beautiful video 😍
LOVE David Attenborough!
Very nice explanation
When he inflated his nostril, I felt for him cuz he was putting it all out there. And he could tell she wasn't going for it but he summoned the courage to try anyway. 😂
Yes yes yes... Long live Sir David Attenborough
Awww the little seal pup 🦭
Seals are such funny creatures.
Wow this is fascinating...love it!🥰
I love Hooded Seal cause these are just some funny little seal
This footage is amazing and they‘re so cute! 😍👍🏼 Nature is really incredible! 🤗🥰
only cute when it's not human doing it. In today's world the feminazis would be calling him creepy and hashtag nomeansNO and all sort of shenanigans
Cute?!
Awesome, thanks
Incredible!
BBC Earth is the BEST👏👏👏
always good
I think the female got attracted to the cameraman who was filming all this😜😜😜🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Any such adventure by a human male will land him a Me Too title.
Wow seen alot a interseting things in animals and id say this is at the top a the list lol
Well looks like size does matters
Soo impressive authentik.😻😻
oh my, Nature has so much rare secrets, i didnt know hooded seals do mate like this ?! 👈👀it is worth to make a short outstanding Love story with the voice of Sir Attenborough, sound and footage - amazing ! Thanks ! 👍
whoever put the bouncy ball effect in to make it sound like their nose is a legend
Lol....what funny commentary 😂
Thank you!!😊
The sound design is so impressive
For people how don’t know
Pretty much all audio of from the animals is added in post
Keep ya head up, you’ll find the one💯
Gelungenes Video. Gruss Jürgen 🤠
Nature has a sense of humor as well. They can't be serious, but joking!
Nature is amazing
FASCINATING😮
,,The bigger the nose, the better'', that figures 😁
بہت خوب بہت زبردست بی بی سی ہمیشہ کمال کی ویڈیوز لاتا ہے ہمارے لئے۔ بہت بہت شکریہ
I was eagerly waiting, then the dictator said, "That means No!!"
those soundeffects tho
i am speechless
😂😂 I'm feeling sorry for this male seal
Impressive video
Ohoo Attenborough Again 😁
Now we know: Hooded seals are the mammal equivalent of Frigate Birds. 😅
So cute 🥰
kkkk How do you know these things lol, i love watching this, the commentary as epic.
Yo I've never seen these seals before very interesting!
Male dromedary camels also have a similar looking part of them that comes out of their mouth, called a dulla, if I'm not mistaken, which is appealing to a prospective mate.
Your day is going to come young lad ♡♡
I like how they added the sound of someone slapping a dodge ball.
They look more scary than elephant seals
In fact, both hooded seals and elephant seals possess a proboscis, both the hooded seal and elephant seals are classified within the family Cystophoridae, Cystophoridae is a unique family of pinnipeds, this family is known to contain the largest living carnivoran in the world, which is the Southern Elephant Seal (Mirounga leonina).
elephant seals are huge, bro.
the leopard seal is scary af too.
