I just love david attenborough's voice.
The minute I saw this thing I was like, IT'S VICTREEBELL!
HAHAHAHA
Same
That is just logic
240p.. we meet again.
It's like the video was made before HD UA-cam was a thing...
lol
240p is like I'm back miss me?
AHAH
I love the viscous sound effects those plants are making.
the song in this clip is absolutely soul stirring
Another great man, Stewart McPherson, discovered and named one of these plants after David.
whats really amazing is that it starts off so simply
Ihave probably seen this sequence in the documentary like 20 times. It never gets old for me. Nature is spectacular. :)
same
Some plants are just too beautiful and fascinating to describe. This is totally awesome!
Its awesome to think that the new largest pitcher plant in the world is now named after this great man :D (nepenthes attenboroughii)
the long tip of the leaves before it turned into a pitcher plant looks like a green snake.
if ever there's a signal that this plant is deadly through and through
lol i had that same thought
Worse, this is a snake that turns into an outdoor vagina.
You got no chance....!
i got a nepenthes x ventrata and the traps are absolutely stunning
Going to start raising these beautiful plants Incredible Sir David was an International Treasure .
Nepenthes are wonderful houseplants, if you have good southern exposure with filtered direct light, and a warm, moist location. They do best next to aquariums, or in terrariums, since they like moisture in the air, but if the climate is right, they are fairly hardy, and will take out gnats and flies that make it in the house. They can be fed dry fish food, if you wish to fertilize them, but NEVER use fertilizer on the plants, or it will suppress traps.
Nazier Michel Ask, which part did you not understand?
Almost all forms of Carnivorous Plants have been gathered by Botanists, and have been raised as houseplants.
The price has been significantly reduced, because of the technology of asexual reproduction has dropped the price. My Nepenthes cost about 8 USD, and lived about 2 years, before the plant failed. It seems that the time that these plants live depends on the light and temperature conditions and the variety of plants, that are grown. Venus Fly traps seem tolive two years or until they flower and set seed. Cobra plants and other pitchers seem to be able to live for years, and the sundews usually live six months to a year, or until they flower and set seed.
Jonathan Brooks
lol your venus fly traps probably only lived 2 years cause you think its a house plant
not to mention venus fly traps can die when flowering/creating seeds due to stress. nepenthes can last 10x that if they have the proper conditions, ive had my sundews create upto 4 flower stalks each this year and none have died (they dont stress when flowering like vft), no offense but i think their living conditions were wrong
@@jonathanbrooks4969 maybe the vft does because it doesnt get a winter dormancy which weakens and eventually kills the plant.
When the plant sprouts do they play music from their tube?
SeeToTheChan phaaaaaaaaaa
Sup bro
SeeToTheChan yes they start playing the violin
Lol
probably
Wow, too cool. But lmao at the sound effects when they opened. :P
0:03
And here we have a wild David Attenborough, sprouting from his leafy den for the first time today. His only purpose? To creepily whisper into the microphone about different plants and animals
I'm addicted in watching his videos becos of his axcent("his neration is so good")
i didnt know plants could be this scary. must be that music in the background
Love the sound effects
Those pitchers must take quite a while to grow so big...
Amazing plants!!!
I still remember when James always chooses victreebell and suddenly swallows him up -_-
Haha we watched this in my biology class. "Secret life of plants" or something. we laughed so hard when the pitcher plants made the exhaling noise. it is now an inside joke.
12 years later im watching it now (:
Yes we have learned in biology class
These plants were soon called after Sir David.How cool! :)
I have those and it's Big too! I love these plants I have more than ten.
Gotta love those time lapses.
love the sound affects
That time lapse makes it freaky.
They somehow look gross, beautiful, and scary at the same time
MagicSunshineSkies like life
true
Yes
True
True
God he's good, love his voice. NZ
I love the traps of the Nepenthes :)
Hi cutie 😗😘 😘
absolutely great, Thanks for this vid.
that time lapse is great
OH SHI-
"A wild Victreebel appeared."
How do I catch it?!
David is an awesome person , thanks David for your great work!
It's a wild Victreebell!
They must be releasing demons when they open
Will ritchie Yaa😂😁😃😄
invasion of the body snatchers lol! Great Video, amazing...
@MaverickXIII your Weepinbell has evolved into Victreebel!
They refer to them as poisonous pitcher plants, and yet their method of killing is by way of drowning their prey, the digestive juices don't poison the prey to death. I am not sure how this is being interpreted as "poisonous."
when you look at these vids...
They look just as living as animals..
its just that they grow slow and are stuck to the ground.
this is an insane plant...the nepenthes rajah. Later on is the truncata. :) I love CP's :)
This plants is so cool, I want one!!! Nice time lapse
Squirrel Turtle, Seal, Magic Karp, Clam Oyster, Cruel Tentacle, Char(ing) Salamander, Vine Dinosaur... the list goes on =)
i saw a tribute to david attenborough on planthouse.ca and it was pretty enlightening. david has been doing this a long time! THUMBS UP
this program's half the fun comes from the man here. really, he's cool
What a loss for those who don't see, this man has done more for the planet and flora & fauna than anyone else I know, and I am proud to be English!!
He is a wonderful narrator isn't he?! Great voice!
When they sped it up it almost felt like it was alive :OO xx
They are alive
most badass time-lapse ever =D
This is amazing somewhere to hear my favorite narration and see many if my favorite documentaries. Especially since Netflix lost the BBC.
Amazing yet slightly sinister
Bellsprout to weepingbell to victoryBell in just a few days,nature is the best trainer!!!!
Lol
Mount Kinabalu
nature is so perfect and beautiful, we should do everything in our power to make sure nature is protected.
i agree scary and so extremely awesome at the same time
It's extraordinary!
I'm driving head first back into documentaries (because of Cosmos season 3) and *David Attenborough* may be the best (nature) Documentarian of the last 60 years.
That music around 1:05 definitely put me in a vibe bro.
David Attenborough's voice = Planet Earth.
Nepenthes macrophylla is a beautiful carnivorous plant that grows only on the summit of a single mountain on the island of Borneo. A vine which grows to a length of about ten metres, Nepenthes macrophylla has modified pitcher-shaped leaves that hang from coiled tendrils into which insects and other invertebrates fall. The semi-woody pitchers of Nepenthes macrophylla are usually cylindrical, becoming narrower at the midpoint.
Watching those plants grow like that is freaky, especially with the creepy music and sound effects.
So amazing love Nepenthes and BBC thanks!
that footage of it growing in sped up time if fantastic.
that was Fascinating!!! ... I love Timelaps videos!
Love these plants but Venus Flytraps are still the most exciting to me!
Awesome video! I love Neps!
Oh! That plant is so fresh even after 17 years now 😊😍
I love this program BBC :)
Yup. Nepenthes are expensive and rare, but they are amazing plants.
LOL, I love the "pahhh" noise when the lids open.
Oml you commented this before I was born... lol
Also the "pahhh" noise is kinda creepy i think
This is TOTALLY where the idea of Victribell came from. =D
It is
Great video!!!
13 years ago
It's the first time I'm afraid of a plant😳 It's scary, big mouth!
watch out! we got a badass over here!!
Nature really is incredible :)
Thanks guy, you made my day :,D
EVOLUTION COMPLETE
Impresive
I liked your research
Wonderful metamorphosis of leaf.
We’re about to buy nepenthes rajah seeds from amazon, and we are the lucky ducky because it comes with 50 SEEDS
Nice.
lol WOOOSH when the pot opens
Bellsprout is partly right. I would, from the looks of them, say Weepinbell is the closest looking one.
amaizing!
Did anyone else notice the ant the size of a computer mouse crawling on the pitcher at the end?
No..that was all in real time, and the sound was coming from the plants -they have organic sound-producing cells inside the pitchers called herbiosonicocytes that can mimic synthesisers and orchestras ;-)
I remember when I was a kid I watched this documentary, or maybe a similar one, in which sir David Attenborough took one of these traps, pulled a fly out of it and then drank the sweet liquid.
People don’t ask who is David Attenborough but I ask how is David Attenborough
This video was posted back in 2007, the early and bare boned days of UA-cam and some people in the comment still have the urge to complain about the 240p 🤷🏻♂️🤦♀️
They were just born 5 months ago, 360p was considered HD back in the days...
Hey, that's periuk kera from Malaysia
brilliant.. love these plants. i finaly got one growing at my place in perth, not this species but similar.
You do know that they speed up the video, right?
Plant: Opens
Also the plant: UNHOLY SCREECHING
