Manta ray, a giant of the ocean
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 чер 2013
- Swimming next to a manta ray is a great privilege, because she is one of the giants of the ocean, the manta rays can measure eight meters and weigh 1400 kilograms, recently we learned that they are family of sharks.
We know very little about the manta ray, they are a mystery, because they can't live in an aquarium. The greatest danger to the manta ray is the fishing harpoon. But the manta rays are still a really mistery. - Домашні улюбленці та дикі тварини
The majestic sea flap flap

Manta rays are truly beautiful creatures.
***** Same here.
True there so elegant and beatiful
True, I met two on a trip to Hawaii.
And taste good

Yo, imagine the first person to see one of these while swimming. I’d cry
Especially knowing how big these bois get. Apparently, they can range from 18ft to 23ft wide with the largest, the giant manta ray, reaching about 29ft.
I see one of these when I was a kid and I was like Jesus walking on water to get back to land , I was terrified
I encountered one of these once when I was diving. I was crying yes, crying of fear. It was hiding camouflaging itself beneath the sand when I approached unknowing it, I was scare as shit when it came out.
@@toshitsuneomizu1678 where did you go diving? I want to do that one day.
@@peggedyourdad9560 horrifying, have a nice day
I wonder if species like crabs and shrimps think that they fly......
Gioseppe Thrall shrimp can swim just like a manta with the flaps under its legs or something
.
Tricia. Hernandez .
Shrimp maybe but crabs see birds so they can probably distinguish flight and swimming via the medium of travel
🤯
20+ years ago on Maui, I unconsciously swam into a "nest" of rays and got chased. Now I understand they were mating & that's why they "flew" out of the water. I almost died laughing from the event, swimming furiously and laughing! No offense meant, rays!
I would have been scared
Seems fun, but scary at the same time lmao
is it just me or do these rays literally look like flying jets or planes
no, Planes and jets look like them -_-
Lorena Rosales his tail is a banner that some planes has ;P
xD
oh shiet i think we just hit mach 2
I think so... the marine form of them
Beautiful. Scary. Mysterious. Unbelievable. Perfect. There's something in my psyche that folds at the sight of the manta ray, but they live regardless of that. It's humbling.
Dude stingrays are dangerpus creatures to
@@Just_cooler Manta Ray's don't have stingers, or teeth so they are far less dangerous
@firmly grasp it ok
Maybe the manta ray remembers you of your mom diameter
@firmly grasp it no
omg big man
May he live and prosper
Yo they made that teacher from Nemo into a real thing
Mr Ray
Yeah but the teacher is a stingray
Manta chooses freedom over being trapped. Raspect 13

god: *so do you wanna be a bird or a fish*
manta ray: yes
😂😂😂😂😂
That's mantine, it's found in the johto region
I was about too say that
Tah,tah,tah.
Yes i caught one 2 days ago
Those crazy bastards in Alola surf on them...
Its actually found in the sinnoh region but ok
Manta Rays are one of my favorite animals. They remind me like they are one of the most oldest animals known on earth, and ancestors of other animals while for some reason, still alive today. They're incredibly remarkable creatures. 😊
Bro must like big man
@@Darkenchantswifeu weird af
@@nchxxvi oh shush mate that comment was last bloody year
im in florida right now on vacation and i saw two of these today when i was in the ocean. they where so beautiful. i wasn't in the water but i could see there outline and saw them when waves went down. such a privilege to see such beautiful animals.
firmly grasp it Why should he ...?
shane cirignano Now i dont wanna go in the ocean anymore. Ty Lol I live in FL.
Lorelai Nokomis me too
Wtf?
the bats of the ocean
Bats of the northern americas are only a few ounces and about the soze of mice, while manta rays can be up to 25ft wide and 18 ft. long. Bats are tiny and harmless, where as if these 3,600 lb. behemoths flew in groups through our skies, it would be terrifying.
imma say Eagle
Batman meets Batfish from Atlantis?
but bigger and less rabies and fur
@@Dori123196 imagine them flying haha, that would be so scary but also like a cartoon
he discovered big man years before he even was announced
Attack of the flap flaps!
no, attack of Poseidon's Pancakes
***** thats the one
The majestic flap flaps, not the regular sea flap flap flaps.
Oooooooooooh , let's name the zones, the zones, the zones. Let's name the zones of the open sea:
mesopolagic, bathyal, abyssalpelagic. All the rest are too deep for you and me to see.
Deersa What are you on about?
It is a reference to Finding Nemo.
Theeeeeeere's, nothing to see. Gather uh, over there!! :)
burning flames
thats actually a spotted Eagle ray
So majestic it's like watching a unicorn.😢
Moral of the story, we don't know shit :/
Manta Ray 8 years ago:
Manta Ray today: I got countless simps

I had the amazing privilidge of swimming with the whale sharks and manta rays this week off Isla Mujeres, Mexico. There were dozens of them, totally unfazed by us. we were unser a strict "no Touch" rule
I love these animals, i would love to see them once in real life :)
*drags him to where i come from* thank me later
***** hehehe
guys look its big man
@juli. AYYYY
AYYYYY
Ay (Glad to see other Splatoon fans here.)
Imagine being the first person seeing this just like “so you know those little ocean pancakes. Yeah! I saw one but it was giant”
They look so majestic
So massive, yet not whales, and so elegant and graceful. Definitely my favorite sea creature. Even more than octopodes.
you know who else is massive, yet not a whale? ... ... ill show myself out...
lol siiiick burn brah.
I'm just back from a sail to Lady Eliot Island in the Great Barrier Reef QLD which has 170 resident manta rays. I was dropped in the middle of an area that had many manta rays. As we were snorkelling my buddy and I were approached by 7 large manta rays. They swam past 4 times and the last time the boldest swam straight at us mouth open and deftly missed us by less than 1 metre returning to its course at the surface then swam off.
We were hanging in the water as still as we could so as not to startle them and they startled us!! They were very inquisitive and bold in the way they swam up to us and kept returning to us.
easonguerreiro
That seemed like fun
Except none of that was true
those are the most beautiful marine animals i've ever seen

The music so elegantly compliments the video. Wow, I really wish we had more information on them. They are incredible creatures. Awesome video. I'm honestly not even too disappointed we dont have too much information on them. Its good to have mystery in the world. Such a beautiful ocean dweller!
Hey, its been a couple of years and some new and interesting finds regarding Mantas were made. Hope it interests You: ua-cam.com/video/m9J5IIfIaXk/v-deo.html
@@WetSouls thank you
This guy has one of the most calming voices ever. Manta rays are my favorite animals ever and I watch this a lot when stress gets the better of me, never fails to calm me down.
Its gotta be the most beautiful creature on earth.!! Soo graceful
Nah dolphins are
sunfish are pretty close too
Saw a manta ray while diving , almost had the privilege but was too scared because of the size..Regardless, the most beautiful thing I've ever seen & it was so elegant!
They are so beautiful and graceful. Watching them is almost hypnotic. Praise God for all His wondrous works! I pray we can enjoy them for many generations to come.
I saw "Racing Extinction" last night. Manta rays are absolutely amazing. I hope someday to see one in the wild.
I was lucky enough to swim with one while diving in the Red Sea several years ago. Beautiful creatures
He looks like he could do the samba
Feed the mantaray, feed the mantaray, feed the mantaray, save the mantaray
they majestically beautiful 😭
together, they look like underwater bats!
Had the privilege to snorkel with manta rays in Hawaii years ago. They are truly amazing creatures.
Matt Nelson Me too! It just turned up right underneath me and I had no idea what it was, so I freaked out and swam back to the rocks. Now that I know they're harmless, I kinda wish I stayed in the water for longer.
big man sweep
tell me how the narrator describing manta rays sounds like Bill in pokemon describing the dragonite
So majestic, would definitely recommend to watch this while high. This is probably the most beautiful animal I’ve ever seen
I hear You brother ... high or not, I hope You enjoy! ua-cam.com/video/m9J5IIfIaXk/v-deo.html
lmao the comments are getting flooded by Big Man
They are just so beautiful and cute!
They're so graceful and fascinating. I used to be terrified of them as a child.
Love Stingrays and Mantras! They're so beautiful!

Gracious, powerful and beautiful... One of the natures gift!!!!
Manta rays have been held in captivity, just not in large numbers.
i only searched this up because i was watching black manta
I visited Hawaii with my family one time, and while my brother and I were snorkeling, a giant manta ray came close to us and started zooming around. It looked like it was flying through the water and almost showing off for us! It got so close that I could have touched it. It was kind of scary because of its size, but it was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my life.
NEVER TOUCH them. It can remove their mucus which prevents bacteria and other things. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE NEVER TOUCH MANTA RAYS.
@@slyfox8953 I didn't touch it, it was just super close.
@@sunningdale3478 I’m just saying, PLEASE NEVER EVER touch manta rays. It’s just a really terrible thing to do to them. Many people touch them but it’s bad for their skin and can KILL THEM.
Let me add to the experience. If you are a show off as a person it was the spirit of God interacting with you.
What a beautiful, gentle, graceful Manta Ray! Thanks for posting, New Atlantis WILD!
I wonder what it's like to be that insanely beautiful and graceful
That is fucking awesome.
I went to the aquarium in Atlanta and that's where I saw Mantas live for the first time and it was one of the coolest experiences I've ever had. They are so incredibly beautiful!
That's a great aquarium
I saw rays in Monterey Bay Aquarium. Got to "pet" them in the "petting zoo" area with the rays. Not mantas, they were smaller.
Since I had this dream about a manta ray, I love them very much.
the sea is a portal to a universe where we can fly but cant breathe
So relaxing
The legendary sea flapper
It’s almost like a mythical creature.
So graceful
so ferg simps for a fish
Lmaoooooooo
Lmao
I already have free manta ray 😂
I forgot they even existed
The top of the Manta looks like an alien thing that's laying on its back just floating, while the bottom looks like another alien thing that has ribs. Amazing man.
He said whales like Stewie says cool whip lol. But lovely video!
cool😮😮😮
Absolutely beautiful! Would love to see one up close ❤️🙏🏼
The manta is so pretty they remind me of the birds of the sea ❤
I am getting my diver certification. I hope I can see one of these guys in person
Good luck :)
Thanks :)
+Curst Saden I saw them :) Maldives are the best place to do that, find which season and months exactly in the location they are present, when you want to go to see them
Ivan R Thanks for the tip! I'll have to visit the Maldives ASAP! :D
@@Fatalution indeed. Good place ua-cam.com/video/m9J5IIfIaXk/v-deo.html
here frm tiktok?
Yessss
Bro get out of my head
So beautifull! Thank you
they are like underwater umbrellas to fish living in there
My Profile pic is also Manta Ray
PS only CODM Players will understand 😂
runescape
+japp02 Thanks to Runescape I knew this name :P
+Vera de Vries What?, I've played runescape for years and never heard any reference of manta rays on it, did I miss something?
+shadowjuan2 haha just search for it! it exists, believe me :p
+Vera de Vries I facepalmed so hard, I can't believe I completely forgot about them. Wow hahaha thanks for the reminder
I've loved manta rays ever since watching dolphin: story of a dreamer a while ago, I've always been obsessed with them. Knowing how mysterious they are now, I love them even more.
They’re stunning!
Most of the rays seen in this clip are devil rays... and the last one is an eagle ray..
Which are variations of manta-rays
How can you tell? (Genuine question. I don't know the difference between all the rays.)
Susy-lol no comprendo. Mí espanól es muy muy mal. No habla espanól. Mi Habla ingles.
ᠮᠥᠨᠭᠥᠯᠢᠠᠨᠰ ᠣᠢᠨᠲᠡᠷ also, "eagle ray" is the manta rays family
Who’s here from Coyotes video

Unknown worlds: hmmmm interesting
*MANTASTIC CREATURES!*
"Their recovery will be difficult as long as we know so little about them."
Um not really. How about humans just leave them the fuck alone? We usually do more harm than good. We don't need to stick our noses into everything.
8bit "How do we avoid hurting them inadvertently?"
Rahf Not sure why your question is in quotes, but I would think as long as we aren't destroying their habitats or dumping oil into the ocean we'll do a lot less damage than messing with them like we love to do.
+8bit I agree about destruction and oil disasters, but aside from things like that, that we KNOW harm them, what are you referring to? "Messing with them" Are you saying we should not try to study them?
+Michael Doyle Nah, studying animals is always good as long as it doesn't come at their expense.
@8bit
Did you not listen carefully? he said they are threatened because humans harvest the same fish that the ray eats. There is no direct contact between humans and manta rays that threatens them, so you're comment is non-sequitur.
Yet another mystery that God has placed in the Earth...n
Uh huh... Yep, um... I'll check back in on that
Ain't no GOD only fools believe in such fantasies.
Smh why make fun if his religion? Not cool at all.
Why not? We can take the piss and critique everything else, why should religion get a free pass? If anything it should be one of the most heavily criticised things in society, religion shouldn't be given a safe space. We shouldn't encourage critical thinking, progress and innovation but then turn around and say "oh no this is special, turn off your brain when it comes to this topic". If you put your opinion or god etc into the public arena then you have to be prepared to take the criticisms and the challenges
^well said, if god or religion rly create peace then why is it harmful for people to debate on it ;) , basically self-claim absolute/arrogant wont create peace
I was horrified af and almost shit myself out of fear. Also speaking of having them in captivity I saw one at the Dubai mall Aquarium but it's sad that it was caged in a corner of the large aquarium
So graceful!!!
I want to eat one
The Grock Says Fuck u
May something snack on you just to decide you taste like shit and spit or shit you back out. Oh, but THAT would be wrong, huh?
It's Big Man!!!!
Mantas are one of my absolute favorite animals! Hope I get to dive with one up close someday. :)
Gorgeous creatures.
they are so gracious and perfect
Their huge and pretty!
Sven the music makes it more beautiful, its so sad we might lose them someday
They are so beautiful.
Manta Ray's,humbolt squids,and cuttlefish are my favorite ocean creatures
My favorites are all the rays a lot a lot like the manta rays, their skin is just oh so awesome and beautiful. Ooh lah! I love it ah!😌😌😌💗💗💗
Some marine life I would love to meet: octopuses, scalloped hammer head shark, whale shark, and manta rays. They're all pretty peaceful. Love them
love manta rays, so beautiful and graceful :)
