Austraila's Great Barrier Reef

- Few biological wonders can rival those in Australia’s Great Barrier Reef for spectacular beauty, and few filmmakers can rival National Geographic’s lush photography.
The giant colonial organism, though endangered by pollution and other threats, still spawns once each year in a gorgeous frenzy of new growth. It’s a fertile time for all of the creatures dwelling in and around the reef structure, and the National Geographic cameras capture barracuda, bright damselfish, giant marine worms, and many other lovely and fascinating neighbours.
I love the jazz music. This very bright & colorful underwater heaven is on my bucket list.
Truly Wonderful sharing here ! 5 thumbs up high !
Such a beautiful video of the coral reef, maybe I should purchase it so I can watch it on a big screen and when ever I want. Who knew there was so much life at the bottom of the sea. All that single cell bacteria just producing life on our earth. i think there must be lots more pictures to take and names to name too. The children might even like it more than cartoons, there are so many colours and shapes and sizes.
This is an amazing documentary. This is perfect to listen to before falling asleep. The narrators voice is so calm and soothing. The description and sound affects are so well done I can visualize everything he speaks of.
Turns out he was wrong about a lot of it. The reef didn’t die
This is one of the most beautiful Nat Geo documentaries! The photograph is just insane! I can't believe the colors! Everything is so lush and vivid! This is so educational too! I love it!
Dived this reef in 2006 and it is one of the most beautiful, wonderful places on Earth.
Added to my bucket list, right after take scuba diving classes.
The ocean and its coral reefs are so mesmerizing! This video is very well made and narrated, great job!
Beautiful documentary.....Awesome.....Everyone should be fortunate enough to view.....Thank you, so much !
I truly enjoy these videos...thanx and carry on
Excellent! As a scuba diver, I loved this video! Thank you!
que belleza,hermoso es nuestro mar gracias SUPERB DOCUMENTALES por compartir esta vida en el mar
Now see, people? _This_ is how a UA-cam post is *supposed* to be: The title is accurate, the quality if decent and there's even subtitles (not the auto-generated ones, either)! Thank you, @Superb Documentaries. Your channel's name is accurate, too, imo. =) Needless to say, I subscribed a long time ago.
Wow... What beautiful LIFE BEINGS we have in the CORAL REEFS of Australia...!!!
I really enjoy your channel. It helps me sleep.
That was amazing and beautiful, thank you
It is such a shame that this beautiful place is now dead. Rest in peace Great Barrier Reef❤️😪
Hugh Mungus its not dead
It will be!

How do you feel today knowing you were lied too?
@@YZ250W1do you realize now 7 years later that we were lied to.
i did snorkeling for the first time in obx north Carolina in Avon in the Atlantic ocean and the water was so warm and clear :) totally was the best thing I got to do in my life :)
Thank You for sharing ❤
thank you it is a privilege to see this
Beautiful - lovingly created
This video was very informative, beautiful and incredibly well documented!
How do you feel now knowing that we were lied to?
Unbelievable work you have done man. And it RUNS!!! My god I was almost as happy as you were when it started and ran on it's own! That has got to be the most incredibly satisfying accomplishment.
Great work!
That was amazing and beautiful, thank
Absolutely brilliant!
this made my class so eay. i understodd the topic coral reffs better. this video was shown in class
I am so proud of this narrator saying sea cucumbers are designed, @ around 5:50
I really enjoy this video. I have seen many times on different channels here and there but I still will watch and enjoy if it’s been a while since I have seen it haha. Please upload more wildlife documentaries omg ! It is the only content I even watch on here and happy to watch and support any good narrated documentaries for sure !! I haha enjoyed several on your channel that you’ve already uploaded and look forward to more hopefully !! Thank u ! Take care ! This one is definitely a good one ! They need to have better narrators in most the content we ever are shown ( especially in content in today’s world omg ). This man did a good job. He sounds more comfortable and natural , unlike most who can’t read a script for anything without trying so hard to be all edgy or predictably annoying , with how some are so flatlined and drone like or typical in how they read the script in such a repetitive way, same inflections and same pauses and cadences, where nothing about them sounds authentic or as if they have any remote experience in broadcasting. I especially get annoyed having to listen to all those annoying celebrities who you’d think could read a script and be believable but no. So many of them are so fixated on trying to come off a certain way ,trying to be so edgy & thinking they’re so relevant, when they sound horribly annoying. I truly appreciate this lovely vid.
fantastic documentraly
Teh start was awesome
beautiful documentary., very relaxing.
YEAH OCEAN! I just about cried when I saw those coral eggs. 10/10 would recommend
cool video
nice collection of videos

Very beautiful!
I love it I’m enjoying this!!!😁
It's a whole other world ❤️🌊
This is so wonderful!
The ocean is so beautiful but totally afraid of it xD
You got that right.
fears are something that used to help us survive. Today, they have more of a getting your attention utility. Nowadays they are more of a psychic throttle, limiting our possibilities. Many fear the ocean because they can't see below the surface. Think of it this way: you're toolin down the road a relatively happy camper, then ... rain falls so fast that you can't see where you're going. Oh man what do I do what do I do?????? Fear of....sets in(short time for some longer for others)!!!!!!! Pretty much without even thinking you turn on your wimpy wipers so you can see what you couldn't a moment ago. Your frightened feelings dissapte. Feelings????? Has a feeling EVER ACTUALLY HARMED YOU? I don't think so. But then you remember you should have replaced those wimpy wipers last year. what do you do? Get new ones ASAP so can see safely.
I've been diving since 1973. 99.9999999999999999% of that time has filled me such awe, respect, marvel and wonderment that what I have gained from my relationship with the ocean is greater than what I know I have received. There is more biodiversity, per square foot, on a healthy reef than you can find anywhere else in the world. Scuze me, soap box time: And we're killing our oceans!!!- over fishing, pollution, climate change you name it. We saw the bounty as ours to exploit without worry because its so vast( 75 % of the earth's surface is covered by our oceans). We know more about what lies outside our air bubble than we know about the ocean. Our exploitations have brought entire species to near extinction. You gone baby, no return ticket for you! We dump our sewage, waste and a lot of other crap into it because of our belief in an endless ocean. Why worry? Theres so much water it'll dilute anything, plus it'll never get to us because its so far removed from US! Out of sight out of mind, the quotation of a foolish idiot. OK now, I step down from the box- well not quite yet; eat shrimp? get edicated find out how they're harvested! NOW I'm done. What the ocean does offer is the limitless potential to get YOU out of your own way. Are there beasties subsurface, could you get hurt ? Sure, but you don't fear and limit yourself above the ocean because you COULD get hit by a car, a bus,a bicycle, someone on skates, a plane, a train, rain, cellophane?;sorry I was on a roll!!, stung by a wasp, a bee, bitten by a dog, a frog,a cat, a mosquito, a bat, a friend, stabbed, shot, beaten, accosted. not get the correct change a cashier, audited, hit by lightening, a meteor from outer space, be in a plane crash. I've been nose to nose with a shark, seriously, about 12" me to it. My fault!!. Still have my nose and face. The shark 'knew' I wasn't a threat and let me know. Teeth, open mouth, nope just body language. I thanked the shark for not munchin on my face, backed off , took more pictures and the entire time marveled at what had just gone on all the while still knowing I could continue experiencing and exploring mother ocean. I relate this story because l, me put myself in that situation. The shark was just there being. Face it, below the surface is the same as our above surface, just more dense.. We're just passin through with their unspoken permission. I'm a scuba instructor, pool to open water, snorkel to scuba. Even those who were fearful or timid at first, realised that fear of the unknown feeling was voted out of office by their own VOTE. Rarely has it been necessary to ask, how was your dive? The ear to ear smile smile and laughter answered that unspoken question. Give it shot. Learn in a pool, get comfortable. You're not scared of what's under the pools surface? Just think of the ocean as a really really really large pool that's ALWAYS changing below its surface. Mahalo for reading this. PEACE!
wwwwwooooooowwwww long!
Sample it..Get a fish tank

I get what you are saying. Still scared, though :-) Another thing is my ears don‘t handle pressure change well - flying is a b**** if I don‘t use a lot of nasal spray, for example.
I‘m glad there are documentaries like this one.
That was beautiful and big
Truly a spectacular documentary! I stumbled on to it quite accidentally while searching
for something else. I'm so glad I did, even though I've now forgotten what it was I was
searching for to begin with.
(ps - I can't believe 9 people disliked this. What's wrong with them, huh?)
Nine people don't like life... though now it's 41... that was spectacular! All those eggs and sperm and more life... may it go on forever and evolve into higher realms...
very nice this was
Good narrative voice for a change
The narrator made me expect to see a gelfling swim by, chased by a skeksis...
Dark Crystal nice...
excellent academy
this is buetiful but the video is to long but its amazing to.
Nice content
Australis is so beautiful
Great documentary. Thanks for the upload!
Nature is crazy
At 2:42, that looked like my mother in law, both of them
tim H hahahha
Thanks a lot for your great work. Really it's not only wonderful but also awesome! !!!! It's prove that; Of course almighty ALLAH is the best CREATOR & CREATOR of all others creators. It's also true that almighty ALLAH will ask us our each & every activities ( in the DOOMS DAY / FINAL JUDGMENT DAY ) May almighty ALLAH blesses & guide all of us ( ameen )
WHAT? still believe in imaginary friends?😂
Religion is so fucking toxic
Dude, you are crazy, FU and your Allah, see the middle east? Africa? Parts of Asia? thats what Islam does and your allah. Go home Kamal, and fuck a goat or something alike, we have enough of that sick religion of yours.
Why is it that I can't find any documentaries on plankton? Just Plankton? The variety is amazing, beautiful, and mysterious. Up close, microscopic, and continuous documentaries of these creatures would be very interesting and enlightening.
We get over 90% of earth’s oxygen from them. Crazy. Plankton makes the circle of life probably most important thing on earth.
Amazing
belle video
Wow just how the colours of the reef show. There is a hole other story to our oceans! we only know the half of it. We should protect this in our world! so help me AND SAVE OUR WORLD AND MAKE IT PEACE!
I love it
😢 I feel so sad that this beautiful reef is dead. Rest in peace young and old ones.
Why doesn’t it bother you that we were lied to?
i did snorkeling this summer :)
cudowne śliczne piękne przecudne prześliczne rewelacyjne malownicze to cudownie tam być i to wszystko nakręcićnakręćcie więcej takich filmów na yotube i wrzućcie do interneru warto obejrzeć a jeszcze lepiej tam być o! jak ja bym chciała tam być od razu bym to nakręciła i wrzuciła do internetu żeby inni mogli widzieć te wszystkie cudowne rzeczy zazdroszcze tym wszystkim którzy tam są no może i mnie się uda no zobaczymy.
what
Bizarre foods guy brought me here. Lol
What is up with the sensual jazz in the background? XD
RIP Great Barrier Reef.
next monday im going to great barrirreef. im studying where im going . so exciting. im gonna dive so ba
+bulbob100 How was your trip?? Are you still there?
TriassicPark no im back. it was beautiful. i went liveboard o learn scuba diving by pro dive just had great time. i loved it.
+bulbob100 hi I'm doing a project on the great barrier reef at the moment! When you were there could you see any rubbish/polution killing the reef? Thank you!
Arctic Rose AJ no away reef was cristal clear very clean. its not rubish its the temperature rising i temperature killing corals. whole world facing same problem with rising temperature. But i dont know how australia gaverment will stop this but i heard govenment will soon start do some project.
i dont know what project u doing but i reckon u better contact diving company they go there everyday so they will know better than me. i got certificate from "pro dive" www.prodive.com.au/ hope u find more informations. good luck with ur project:)
1200 miles long!
why no HD?, this is what it enhances.
The special itself was filmed long before HD was invented.
Economic importance
Coral reefs are exploited for:
• Food (fish, lobsters, clams, snails, squids, octopuses, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, seaweeds).
• Ornaments (corals, shells, ornamental fish, sea-snake leather).
• Materials for fishing/hunting (baits, toxins).
• Building materials for houses and roads (corals).
• Lime for agriculture, cement manufacture-and whitewashing.
• Bioactive substances (drugs with antimicrobial, antileukemic, anticoagulant, cardioactive properties; insecticides, etc.) extracted from reef organisms.
nice
Rest In Peace - The Great Barrier Reef OCT•2016
An estimated 30% of the reef died, not the whole thing.
soriyen : it was 30% in May 2016
The rest is still alive, but is expected to die soon :(
Hl A that's not funny
Soon
ocean beautiful - thank you
Amazing life. OM.
I'm trying to search up some things about coral reef be cuz I have a project so I'm watching this. Our project was to choose a biome like savannas, marine, coral reef, rainforest and all the whateves. and I chose the coral reef so I'm finding some things. Who else is watching this for a project?

Superbe Nature que les hommes doivent protéger, au lieu de s'acharner à la détruire!!!
Great Barrier Reef, Australia's Natural Underwater Team park
looks like intersteller
I was expecting this to be about the sea creatures, rather than their sex lives. I'm 10 minutes in, so I hope it gets better soon...
Why did Nat Geo lie about reef dying because of global warming? Coral growth is up 20% today. It’s been going in cycles for thousands of years
So if a coral just keeps cloning its polyps, how does it evolve? Deformities in the cloning?
Great question! Google it to start your process of learning... do you realise that humans are mainly bacteria? Each of us consists of about 40 trillion human cells and about 22,000 human genes, but as many as 100 trillion microbial cells (the microbiota) and 2 million microbial genes (the metagenome). Understanding the microbial side of ourselves may therefore be critically important for understanding human biology. Biodiversity is the key to all health, ours and the reefs and the whole planet, we need to protect it and encourage it. :)
It adapts to environmental conditions to survive and the weak dies off. Why do you think over 99% of species are extinct?
What a awesome God. ONly God can make a tree,and this beautiful world like this. 2/9/16
+clarice neeley Yes, indeed 3/6/16!!! So glad you enjoyed as my fiance and i did!
God didn't make this
time made this beautiful world, that's better
+clarice neeley science. please. go read a book. not a fictional one.
awesome God
So what I learned is that we shouldnt endanger the Great Barrier Reef? I do not exactly get the point. And theGreat Barrier Reefis obviously really beautiful. An
the great barrier reef is almost completely dead if you compare it to 40 years ago with now you will see the huge difference.
Wow, yikes. How do you feel today knowing that we were lied to?
Should be rescreened on Australian television. Everyone should be aware of what is at stake for future generations - given the current coral bleaching, and changes to our landscape, effectively trading short term economic gain for one of the seven wonders of our world. How can we apologize to those who come after us for our lack of foresight and selfishness.
The good news is, it is easy to grow new ones, I could do it but don't have the cash. I'm thinking a kickstarter campaign could be the answer! Funny how all the buggers in power, the ones that hold all the purse-strings just sit back and let it happen pretending there is nothing they can do! makes me sick.
RIP reef. Read an article today saying the great barrier reefs will be gone in a few years due to global warming.
no thats crap

The GamingDude eat your words
How do you feel now? Are you not embarrassed you fell for all these lies. Save the rainforest save the ozone layer. Acid rain
@@RichardTavilla How do I feel about conspiracy theorists? Nothing. I did however read an article TODAY about how the scientists examining the reefs were crying in their diving masks because of all the damage. How does that make YOU feel? Is it just lies? Did The Guardian and the scientists fake the entire article and the pictures??
Search "Great Barrier Reef suffering ‘most severe’ coral bleaching on record as footage shows damage 18 metres down" for the article.
but we all know the real problem is the washed up fertilizer, altering the ph and nitrogen level of the ocean and making phytoplankton grown in population which then leads to the growth of population of crown of thorns starfish, which just happened to be the second threat on corals, next only to cyclones.
plz coral reef upload video hindi language
im sure that all of the 900K views are looking for content for their presantation
How do we save life on Earth?
First we can come to terms that 6 years later we are able to see that we were lied to.
over 50 minutes of ocean bukkake
be prepared to see devastation decades in the making. Hardy Reef off the coast of Whitsundays, Australia. Everyone is in denial but the sadness you will witness at what man has done to nature cannot be denied. The image is one of a fine haze of human faeces colour everywhere you look. Every coral structure is brown and lifeless. Gone are the brilliant plant life and sea flowers from postcards of decades ago. This has not happened from only two years of global warming, no way. The depth and concentration of despair will leave you alarmed and concerned at what the ramifications are of this devastation. I can not rest easy now after seeing this just yesterday the 18th of March 2017. Gigantic Coral structures what would have taken thousands and thousands of years to grow dead by poison. The damage is more than global warming, Chemical run off from pesticides and fertiliser over decades has caused this graveyard.
How embarrassing for you now 7 years later knowing that we were lied to. Nothing they said was true
Just letting you all know that all this is almost completely dead due to mining and ship paths. Soon it will just be this video left.
Dead. full stop.
***** Sad days.
if i ended up as queensland premier, i would invest a crapload of money into assisting the reef to regenerate as well as divert ships so that in an event of oil spills it wouldnt affect that area
Turns out that we were lied to. I just snorkeled there and am really bothered that we fell for it.
سبحان الله الخالق
💞😘💞👍👍👍💞💞💞
it's a great beauty but the being human destuctor of this spectacular life of mother nature ! l'm sorry
The basic design of the narrator is also a long hollow tube taking in stuff at one end and letting out poop at the other...
240 million years! Who was there to document this statement?
The things that have been proven are very MUCH worth watching. The theories do not make this documentary more interesting at ALL (to me!)
"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."
Genesis 1:1!
This WHOLE documentary (sans the millions of years statements) gives glory to our Magnificent Creator God! Who but God would send an abundance of food to feed coral under water, that no one knew about till knowledge started increasing here in the end times! The spawning at the exact same time has been occurring since the dawn of creation. Over abundance feeds God's other creatures! Only OUR generation would call. the spawning of coral "sex"! Shame! Nonetheless, the Lord takes care of His own! He knows and can supply EVERY need...animal's and our's! May you learn to love Jesus! He is coming soon!
Can't if this is a joke or not...
Sister Pamela Jordan EHM why are we talking about the most high God? This is kinda about God and All about the Great Barrier Reef. I do not want to preach but The great Barrier Reef is Verryy old. In the begining GGod created the hevens and earth. But one question for all you that speaks of the Bible. Why do thee nor you say of God? Reply down here ⬇
Calm down I wrote a comment by accident
simple ... put in the fish tank
we killed it. all this shit we do to the earth.
This video is so cool and nasty. Yay water filters. Hahaha
