That one shot at 1:58 of the single feathers floating in the infinite, deep blue, made me gasp. Tells stories about the horrors underneath the surface. Outstanding cinematography
I just hope that Sir David lives forever. As if these great documentaries weren't enough by themselves, David's way to present them is the proverbial icing on the cake. Cheers to you David ;- )
Truly, although they have yet to top Planet Earth. It's less polluted by the politics of global warming than the more recent ones. And I can't stand the Darwinism ideology they insert in commentary.
@@JP-uk9uc polluted by global warming? How are you going to make a video on nature without mentioning global warming, it's impacting everything to do with nature and the world.
@@tauruscommunist9532 you are ignorant. There is no global warming. Have you have checked the numbers by yourself? Or just repeating like the girls on andrew tate gander toilets
This was just exceptional footage. The crazy teenager, the helicopter parent, and the predator. The drama, the suspense, the close call and the happy ending. It was better than any script. But I liked the scientific angle, and the prey-predator evolutionary pressure on the fish to take to the air.
It IS a script. The bird in the water, the bird struggling to fly from the water, and the bird just missed by the fish are all different birds; check the white spots on each. They're lying to you.
Man, the drama at the end was sooo Cooool...! Mama bird trying to warn the child, the child tries to fly off away from the water...the "villain" Fish closes in...is it gonna get the young bird...? is it...?! Booom! it's a miss...! That's one lucky son of a bird! :-P
That hit at 3:24 is just epic! This fish has been on my bucket list of fish to catch (and release) for years, and before I die I will have chucked big tuna poppers at them off of the coast of Madagascar! Great cinematography from this series as usual, and David Attenborough's narration is flawless.
This was wonderful to watch on so many levels! Top tier: editing, music scoring, cinematography, storytelling, sound designing -- just perfect on so many levels.
Goosebumping even watching it, so just imagine how amazing was to witness it with your own eyes... nature and this planet is simply incredible jewel we should value above anything and always protect.
I can only imagine how long some of the team members spent trying to get these shots. If you didn’t know, it can take months to film these just for that one awesome moment
BBC rules documentaries in all their forms. And I think I soilt myself at 1:30 when that birdie got grabbed. And 4:59, sheesh how many hints do you need, "Get outa da water"!

That fish chasing that bird @2:40 before the bird has even landed is crazy. Them trevally are vicious. Ready to fish for one now... Ok now that I've watched further, they are jumping out of the water to catch them mid flight. Insane!!!
Wow! Incredible photography. That last shot, what a marvel of nature! Imagine a fish so heavy lifting clear out of the water to catch a bird in the air. Makes humans look so weak!
Holy moly what an awesome short documentary. The camera shots are next level and the fishes are fascinating and really show they're not messing around.
@@killergoldfish117 i fought 3 lions and won. A great white is done if it sees me. I will crunch it! I spent all of last summer defending my grandfathers farm from wolverines.
Absolutely incredible and fantastic and fabulous!!! With such beautiful photography and the narration is absolutely superb by David Attenborough! I didn’t know this at all about the turns! I have admired turns in the past down in Florida on the coast and didn’t know this at all! I had never heard of this fish either or seen it! Thank you very, very much!
Such carefully planned videos from BBC Earth! Words are insufficient for me to describe the feelings that pass through me whenever I watch any video of this channel🙏. Thanks.

I imagine the "Old bird" with the mustache giving the briefing to the younglings : - All right Chap's, time to go, remember : allways keep formation ! Follow your leaders , I you lose them, keep altitude and speed. Go back to nesting shore by the shortest route. And kids ... never ... oh do you hear me ... NEVER rest on the water surface if tired !! Let's go , sharpen your feather ! The skies await for glory ! give me a Huah !! - HUAAH !!
The cinematography and music to the story narration of Attenborough's voice, made this six and half minute clip into a nail biting epic short film.
Witnessed this in real life once. was much more epic. Its somewhere in the Maldives.
The cinematography is simply fantastic. The storytelling ability, wonderful!
so true, however thoughts and images of those large fish on a grill kept popping out in my mind
@SpaceAce100lol...fish...the the birds would also be fine in a Egyptian cream rice casserole
David Attenborough an absoloute legend
The fish are hired actors
Absolutely.
Too bad they use this talent to misinform the public for important topics in our lives.

Stop anthropomorphising the birds. They can’t do any of that.

Out of all the safe places to learn how to fly, lets learn over the bird eating fish!!
they seem to be less "training grounds" and more "proving grounds"
*bird eating fish
@@militar3rd eh? That’s what it says though ☺️
That's what God decided.
Well, it certainly separates the "men from the boys" quickly! But just like today's teens, they just don't want to get flying!
Ten out of Ten to be given to this amazing documentary
agreeeeee!
Tern out of Ten*

I can only imagine how long some of the team members spent trying to get these shots. If you didn’t know, it can take months to film these just for that one awesome moment
Took them 5 minutes. Just throw in food to lure the fish and birds and film.
In this case finding the action was easy: the problem was actually getting the attacks on film since the whole thing happens in seconds.
@@kontoname Because using bait in high end cinematography is definitely plausible and used
Nobody tells a story of nature like David Attenborough 🌲🌊🔥💮

Awesome video.
Bird at 5:25, "Hey wet ugly thing, thanks for the boost. Couldn't have done it without you.".
Blue planet and planet earth r the best nature documentaries.
4:54 when u get warned multiple times but still don't listen and when u finally listen, it's too late but u narrowly escape😱
That fish chasing that bird @2:40 before the bird has even landed is crazy. Them trevally are vicious. Ready to fish for one now... Ok now that I've watched further, they are jumping out of the water to catch them mid flight. Insane!!!
One if the best videos I ever watch on UA-cam. Kudo to BBC and Sir. David Attenborough
Wow, that was intense! I've seen a huge Pike catch a duckling, not a small one, an almost fully grown one.
same! I find actually pike substantially fascinating.
I've seen videos of catfish hunting pigeons.
That's cute. Here in Australia we have a fish called Murray Cod. They eat baby emus, kangaroos, possums & cormorants.
Thank you Sir Attenborough. You're just the best.
Exceptional footage ! minutes 5:25 was just simply awesome. Those GTs are wicked!
This got to be the best camera man ever. The shots, the angles, the story telling, suspense, music, dang it. Got it all!!!
Imagine fishing with a kite that looks like a bird.
I think you are on to something here...
Hi
Or set up a floating bird decoy attatched to a line.
i was doing just that!!!!
not uncommon.
there are birdlike swimmingbaits for fishing at pikes for example
Last scene was Breathtaking.
Wow! Incredible photography. That last shot, what a marvel of nature! Imagine a fish so heavy lifting clear out of the water to catch a bird in the air. Makes humans look so weak!
Evolution.
By far the biggest drive for survival.
First off: these shots are SICK
Secondly: these fish must have evolved from the fish that fight Manny in IceAge 2! 👀
High quality video, thanks
1:43 That Fish got that Bish........ I mean Bird 😁👍
The audio in this video is absolutely breathtaking...
The commentary made it so intense and the cinematography was top notch.
Holy moly what an awesome short documentary. The camera shots are next level and the fishes are fascinating and really show they're not messing around.
*fish
I don't recall seeing terns in the bait shop.
When you’re fishing for giant trevally anything under two feet that moves is bait
Can you see the artificial lure? It’ll be like duck decoy
@3:02: There is a fish here that amazingly has a brain calculating the air speed altitude and the trajectory of a bird. 🦅 🦅 🦅 👍👍👍
the scratching the ground before flying? The slow-mo fish falling back into the ocean defeated? AMAZING videos!
Cinematography had me terrified of a fish.
i want to fight those fish.

This is amazing. It's like a great white breaching when they hunt seals.
That's exactly what I thought when I first saw the introduction... that must be a really big bird!!! Maybe an albatross.
Excellent production
How the hell was this even captured!! Incredible 😍
5:24 and 5:27 not the same fish not the same bird not the same scene but still Amazing 😍😍
"If they have to survive, They must have learn quickly."
I was watching this with pure and absolute utter enlightened shock! Awesome job!
Fun fact:
The fletchings can float in the water, but once a fish takes them underwater, they’ll drown.
doesn't seem very fun
there's no coming back from that
that wild scene was unimaginable ... 😮 😮 🙄 ...
the title should be “fish eats birds”
fantastic material
Incredible footage.
There are some really great shots in this video. Well done!
