I grew up in turkey and my happiest memories where swimming at the beach at night with my sister and watch the sea glow we thought it was magic

I guess that's "Second Nature" for you.

She still does the drawings in normal Animalogic videos, just not the "Second nature" videos.

You sir, have just convinced me to hold off on watching this until later tonight

Siri told me who the artist was. So stoked.

[@UpcycleElectronics]

I don't know if this was Dylan, Cat, and/or Jim that put together this compilation of clips quotes and background visuals but kudos, major kudos. I am amazed you came up with so many themed visuals and funny quotes. This channel usually seems to highlight Danielle's talents in a very sharp and skilled way. While this didn't take away from her, it really showcased the skills behind the scenes. As someone that has built low light product photography studio in the past... you nailed that shot too. Very well done :-) -Jake

[@NIGHTOWL-jf9zt]

WOW. It was truly amazing to see a star fish swimming. All this time I thought they were a static creature that barely moved at all and were hard as a rock. Thank you Animalogic for teaching me something new!

“Females use the lure not just to attract prey, but mates!” Middle Aged Men: Ha what’s the difference, am I right fellas?

I love it. I love the music too. What is it? My 5 year-old boy complained that he didn't see enough Danielle, and there was no drawing. But you know, he's 5.

If you are interested in the music, search 'synthwave' or 'retrowave' here on KZbin.

[@darkbaby9]

I typically don’t comment on videos but just wanted to say this video was great. Previous videos were great but “Second Nature” feels fresh and well produced. Keep up the amazing work!

1:40 the chemicals sound like Lucifer and when she puts up her fingers she makes horns. Wicked.

[@andresvinasmartinez5200]

Would recommend to provide more accurate information, and to not consider fluorescence as the same as bioluminescence. In the millipede clip you can even see how they use uv light to make them glow.

My whole summer in Recombinant DNA class is trying to incorporate Luciferase gene to bacterial plasmid. One of my best experience and really cool seeing them glow.

[@EmelieWaldken]

1:43 Oh you made me happy there =) And the techno music was, as always on this channel, a very fitting choice.

[@IrishCarney]

I like the idea of Dashlane so Google isn't storing all your passwords

[@dansantorso1377]

Some of the retro audio clips made statements about the intensity of light. They were immediately following statements about bioluminescence, which made them seem like they could apply in context. But I think the retro clips were not meant to convey information at all. Kinda muddied the waters a little bit. Anyway - Thanks for the episode Danielle!

[@forabug594]

Great job collaborating with NOAA OER! They have great footage from the Okeanos Explorer, Deep Discoverer, and Serios! Love watching their live streams and I’m glad that you were able to use it to put together a great story!

The intro is the same theme that mamamax has been using lately. I feel like i should be uneasy and disturbed while watching that intro

[@LudvigLinus]

One of your best episodes so far. Wonderful work!

[@TheMadRatKing]

Honestly kind of disappointing that you didn’t talk about how the male deep-sea angler fish, after finding a mate, will attach himself to the female and practically die, becoming a part of the female’s body and losing any ability to live on its own, effectively becoming nothing but an on-demand producer of sperm for the female’s eggs whenever she’s ready to lay them. I know it’s not the topic of the video but it feels like it would have been nice to mention.

[@deathsnitemaresinfullust2269]

Bioluminescence is one of my favorite things about the creatures and other life forms of our planet. There are So many fascinating things that plants and animals can do, i find myself repeatedly captivated by Tropical Reef and Deep Ocean life. It's often more amazing than Plant, Fungus and Insect life, but really there are amazing things of Nature everywhere if you look hard enough. 😄👍

[@minimonstr6182]

Danielle be my biology teacher kthx

[@deathsnitemaresinfullust2269]

Absolutely Love Bioluminescence and Biofluorescence, it's one of my all time favorite thing to learn about. David Attenborough made a lovely documentary about it called Life That Glows atleast I'm pretty sure that's what it was called, it covers everything from bugs to plants, fungus, sea life, microscopic life and it's about an hour long. Pretty sure I found it on KZbin at some point, really worth checking out 😄👍

[@keithdurant4570]

Danielle..I think the Royal Ontario Museum could be enhanced by using some screens with AronRa's Phylogeny Explorer Project (when complete) for it's biologic exhibits. He would profit because the team really wants the input because that is the scientific process. I think it could be a great collaboration without specific costs to either party.
