Interesting Life at Palos Verdes Slope | Nautilus Live

E/V Nautilus is exploring the ocean studying biology, geology, archeology, and more. Watch www.nautilusliv... for live video from the ocean floor. For live dive updates follow along on social media at / nautiluslive and / evnautilus on Twitter. For more photos from our dives, check out our Instagram @nautiluslive.

That crab was gold because it was a shiny Kingler

As yes such a rare find

It's like watching another planet. Everything down there is just so different.

[@Mandy-nt2cs]

It's absolutely amazing just how much detail every single sea creature has ! We tend to see them as the most simplistic forms of life, yet they are so very complex and detailed.

[@giadamelchiorre3479]

So true, I love watching them and they give us such beauty.

[@justiceneeded01]

"when good urchins go bad"😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Alienasa1]

The literal Dutch to English translation of sea urchin is ''Sea Hedgehog''.

[@flamingas]

Definition of urchin 1 archaic : HEDGEHOG

[@mac5er]

Urchin or urcheon is the Middle English term for "hedgehog"

[@Saccillia]

This beings me joy to know that the dutch call sea urchins hedgehogs of the sea

You ever stepped on one? Some people will have the spines in their feet for the rest of their lives. Way painful. Don't mess with these guys!

[@barbarawaters6514]

''They will F* you up'', very impressive English.

[@kirishima638]

That crab was one day away from retirement, man.

They just left the decapitated limbs you make it clear that you want to stay the F* away.

[@napster7825]

Enjoy the videos. It would be a bit more interesting if you added info like depth and water temperature. Thanks

[@justkeepbreathing3018]

the sea is so amazingly beautiful, im so grateful we have the availability to see this mystery

[@rajaniwolf9466]

I think one of the things that make these videos so enjoyable to watch is these people are clearly very interested in their job and they love what they do. That makes a huge difference in a video.

[@darealest404shawty]

I've just started viewing your videos; I've always wanted to become a deep sea marine biologist.. But life and wrong decisions made that practically unattainable.. Anyway, I have come to greatly appreciate your videos of my ultimate dreams, furthermore, I never would have imagined an octopus burrowing in the sea floor for cover. Just amazing!!

[@rarebird_82]

Bad decisions and other "life choices" blew away my dream of becoming a Meteorologist. I'll be 40 by the time I get back my freedom to work, I'm not in jail, but raising 3 kids in an unsupportive family with zero childcare - I might aswell be. Life begins at 40 so they say, mine actually does! Basically, its never too late...🙂

[@SafirJamil]

I guess the two laser points are for scale/measurement. Whats the length? Btw, I love the commentaries as much as I love the videos. Thanks for doing this.

[@oogalook]

You're exactly right, they are for scale -the lasers are parallel and are set exactly 10 cm apart. They are really helpful when the only reference for an unfamiliar sea dealy is another unfamiliar sea dealy.

[@jeroen1368]

They are 10 cm apart.

[@carlosmante]

It's a small professional field, in the sense that they're not hiring people in droves though. But hey, if you put in the time to pursue an ocean related degree, your chances get better

[@kazkk2321]

I wonder how these creatures perceive space and time. Everything is cold and dark down there. Do they even have a notion of time passing ?

[@rosaliesalas8578]

anybody else seen the red fish face behind the dark jelly fish?

[@zoehildebrand1900]

Wonderful footage! At 2:05 the bottom part of the anemone looks a bit like plucked, raw chicken or turkey...

All this area must be cleared to make way for an underwater shopping mall..

Its amazing to think...even if these animals were not being observed they would just be still doing ..what ever it is theyre doing..down there in the deep darkness of the sea. Aaamazun!

The first crab you showed in the king crab family, reminded me of a coconut crab in some respects.

[@c.b5996]

Omg yes! I was thinking the same thing! It looked like a mini one or a cross btwn one and a king crab

[@chitinskin9860]

@@c.b5996 Well they all are related, coconut crabs are actually just very large hermit crabs, and as stated in the video, king crabs are hermit crab relatives that produce their own shells.

I love these underwear moments! Thank you

[@山田勇一-k1w]

Oh, King crab. Mean to Japanese, "Taraba gani".

[@RandomCarrot2806]

Why do I keep thinking "Man, those sea urchins would hurt to step on" when this is deep dive filming?

[@mariashaffer-gordon3561]

That's one of the reasons snorkelers and divers are careful when they enter the water from the shore. There are plenty of urchins that live in shallow water, although I've never seen any that are such a beautiful shade of pink.

[@j.503]

The diversity of life is very diverse.

[@unwrinkling]

But what was the crab eating at the end??? The suspense is unbearable!!! An urchin?

[@robertspies4695]

Interesting footage. What depths? Lat. & Long.? A major Los Angeles County sewage outfall is located at 60 m on the PV shelf and years ago before upgrades in treatment there very few sea urchins in the area.

[@thatonebabywhale]

Literally the sea life is so unreal all I can’t stop thinking about is getting to go on a research mission just to see this dark alien world of all well crafted species of life forms. All of them just as curious to examine us cause to them we are friends and food too on occasion

[@morigami6187]

Ready to fillet all fish on this video hold my knife and check my channel.

[@humblelad]

theres so many things laying around, I always imagine there's so many empty spaces on the sea floor but not so here

[@Caun-88]

Crabs are interesting but give me the creeps the way spiders do for many people. I'm glad around here they all stay in the water where I can avoid them.

[@RbilyRabie]

*land crabs are a thing yknow*

[@mariashaffer-gordon3561]

When you see them in their natural environments, they are very cool, not creepy like some spiders.

[@tonyclendenin8714]

Great job ! keep searching something big is around the corner?

[@WildBillCox13]

Does seismic activity release water dissolved methane? In the Cameroonian lakes a mud slump or local seismic event can catalyze release of large amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere with catastrophic effect on the animals and plants in the path of the resultant downhill flow.. Is there a similar process at work re: methane in the sea?

[@williamchamberlain2263]

Thumbnail looks like the crab is using the urchin as a cushion to sit on.

"Hardcore Urchin predation" LOL

How many species predate upon crabs down there? Is the list comparable to shallow waters? What are the odds one of the Octopi observed originally consumed the bulk of the dead crab? I don't imagine anything would expend more energy than necessary moving about.

Curious as to the effect of your guiding laser points on the eyes of sea creatures with advance eyes such as octopi and sharks? I always wince a bit when I see the laser points glide right over their eyeballs.

Same. I was wondering the same thing. I wince also when I see that

@@c.b5996 Many lasers aren't powerful enough to actually cause damage to anything let alone some eyes of a sea creature. It's very likely they used some of that sort.
