Into the Deep

James Maclaine, a Senior Curator at the Natural History Museum reveals the creatures of the deep ocean.

[@IScienceMagazine]

Hi all! So, this was a surprise - we didn't expect such a sudden influx of viewers to a 4 year old video! While you're here though, do check out our more recent stuff, as we'll be posting new science videos throughout the year!

[@Adam-ql4oj]

The algorithm should’ve realised I would click on weird dead fish sooner!

[@lil_flame2579]

Lol

[@a3kid]

Tbh if this channel only did videos like this you'd have alot more followers. This was very interesting, I check the other videos expecting to see more like this but was disappointed!

[@fleshflavor]

give us more James Maclaine videos 😡

[@elinberglund9824]

KZbin recomended me this. But i like this kind of content.

[@themurrrr]

When he said: the male is much smaller .... I mean.... I was STILL. NOT. prepared.....

[@alyannahpanotes8907]

It's so small wtf

[@iCore7Gaming]

Imagine if humans were like that haha

[@alyannahpanotes8907]

@Ali Zaidan Thamyeez ik ik, that's just my reaction

[@Enigmatic_Lurker]

He's so excited when he's talking about the specimens, and then really awkward when he's not sure what to do at the end, it's really endearing.

[@anthonybawia99]

Ikr😣

[@themurrrr]

It’s refreshing. Especially after all these influencers with their fake everything, including enthusiasm.

I could listen to this man talk for hours at an end.

[@marxgarita01]

Yeah he definitely knows what he’s on about

[@teekeepaque7894]

Right!! His voice is just calming & you can tell he loves what he sharing about 🖤 no homo

[@teekeepaque7894]

@Zoom Boom I can’t like how he sounds? I’m sure I’m not the only one thinking the same shit😂 I didn’t say it was miraculous. I said it was calming

[@teekeepaque7894]

@Zoom Boom ahhh I see, well you can smd over & over & over until you feel satisfied with yourself. How about that? Would you like that? I’ll sure you will Or you can shut the fuck up & get a fuckin life😂 what a joke you are sir, people like you are bad for the “community” get a life 😂

[@teekeepaque7894]

@Zoom Boom “zoom boom” do you enjoy trying to make people feel less about themselves for making a simple peaceful comment? Haha your whole life is a joke, tell me sir.. what do you do? Do you actually do anything at all🙂 it sounds like your a little miserable fat fuck who has nothin better to do with your pointless miserable life but to just go troll and make fun of other humans 😁 it’s very inspiring lil guy, one day I want to be just like you!! 🥲

[@Peepee4brain]

I love how passionate he is about these he’s literally smiling! You can tell when someone loves what they’re teaching about and it makes it so much more engaging.

[@shena1256]

The camera person needs to learn how to get closer. He's telling us stuff a mile away.

[@aniquinstark4347]

They were doing the 2 meter thing before it was cool lol

Trueeeee

Wow! What a bitch you are hahah just had to complain about something

[@shena1256]

[@oldgoat75]

He's got that Eddie Redmayne awkward thing going where he doesn't realise his hair is messy and probably finds it easier to talk about dead marine creatures than to talk at a party. I like him.

[@dw6nvf]

The angler fish looks very leathery and quite more solid than I expected. I imagined it would be more a lot more “deflated” when he pulled it out of the jar.

[@googleuser3163]

@@velocityraptor9270 Pretty sure they're already dead

[@googleuser3163]

It's a Football Fish, a type of angler fish covered in hard spiny plates. Not all anglers are that "solid".

[@a_m5115]

When they animals are preserved in alcohol for a long time they get stiff

[@flamecharge8019]

When i was a kid i was soo scared of that fish when i used to play shark evolution

[@RookieAssassin]

@@flamecharge8019 lol shark evolution is only like a few years old

[@cheetos4951]

He’s like a cool professor who lets the class have fun at the same time teach them effectively

[@dantaex]

The explanation is on point, the camera work sucks

[@tmtydbwen8108]

I get so much anxiety seeing him dipping his hands into those jars with a long sleeve shirt on...

[@anjabajracharya183]

Ahahaha I was thinking this the whole time😂

[@thomasmendoza7728]

It's just gives me so much anxiety. Please, for gods sake, roll up your sleeves

[@princessbanana4625]

I was looking for this

[@jackleson860]

Princess Banana Lmao me too.

[@God7ODTaxationIsTheft]

Y’all weird

[@themurrrr]

@@God7ODTaxationIsTheft The possibility of his sleeves touches the dead fish water.... IS VERY REAL.

[@fifi7367]

I already got anxiety since he start to take the gloves

[@gwent4life878]

Love this and love this guy's enthusiasm. This is what inspires a new generation.

[@barboralesna8111]

I want somebody that would talk about me just like this man talks about these creatures

[@themurrrr]

I feel, after all these years..... KZbin FINALLY understands what I like, what it should recommend. ABOUT DAMN TIME!!!!

[@violetbyers6818]

oh my god, god he’s adorable

[@BarkeeperDan]

I'd love to be there and look at all those different fish closely

[@angelit161]

You’re on your own there bud.

[@themurrrr]

Please do more with this guy. He’s got a lot to show and tell. But please do better closeups with the camera. This was so fascinating, but the camera work made me wonder: why so far, was this shot during the pandemic!???

[@phantomb8832]

I wonder if the staff have named the squid and greet him like another colleague when they get to work each day.

[@user-yu4uh5dm8l]

The giant squid is a female and her name is Archie. I THINK because she was found in the archipelago off Argentina.☺️

[@mikerimmel5337]

1:20 danggg he was able to put that glove on fast I suck at doing that

[@sleeth]

Somewhere I wouldn't wanna get locked in over night.

[@alittleextra2832]

I cannot believe this doesn't have more views.

[@the_zara_moon]

Imagine your job title is “fish curator”

[@flamecharge8019]

He pickles the fish why not seems interesting but the name is very weird when telling what job you do to other people

[@ddigii]

Interesting to see the Pelican Eel, I always saw it referred to as a gulper eel growing up

[@thesciencelair9556]

Me too, I still do

[@mm468zzz]

This guy is so adorable ! i could listen him all a day

[@MLE_anne]

Working at a place like that would be so amazing

[@alittleextra2832]

I'm curious how long those specimens will remain recognizable in those jars.

[@googleuser3163]

With proper maintenance, probably hundreds of years. Those are strong preservatives in those jars.

[@antman7673]

Probably formaldehyde.

[@mmc1086]

Barf. So many floaters.

[@themurrrr]

@@mmc1086 ... most are not floating in the jar....

[@dracconz1486]

Longer than we’ll be alive for. Luckily, these are not anything crazy of fish anymore and in 100 years we’ll be able to dive deeper and find crazier organisms.

[@izzybusyy]

Wow I was not expecting the male to be THAT small 😳

[@rileyarmageddon4902]

Someone PLEASE tell me they also see this guy as the real life Newt Scamander. I cant unsee it.

[@DenchManJoe]

Id watch stuff like this all day, love the deep sea and especially when enthusiastic people are talking about something, makes the topic even better.

Great vid! Wish it was longer

[@ayrifik35]

Please no this reminds me of when i went to the sydney museum of human disease for my biology excersion at school and it was exactly like this except with diseased human body parts and im still mortified there were like hands and feet and and even half of some guys face, still had the mustache and everything. Im going to have nightmares again. 😭😭

[@Itsmeitisme]

I really like this video I wish it was longer

[@maxcovfefe]

Of all the animals we know of, these are the most intriguing to me. They're not easy to encounter, so they're naturally mysterious to us.

[@benzino23]

so calming

[@shaakirahsulaiman2045]

He's having a good time ❤

[@M4Production]

The idea alone of colossal squid is the stuff of nightmares and gives validation to those scared of the open ocean.

[@iksidnieiksta9762]

I like how this guy get’s more and more excited as he is talking about these fish So wholesome

[@lucxl.5796]

I took an Ichthyology class in college. We were opening jars and examining fish specimens all day in lab, and we even got to see an old coelacanth specimen in storage. For field trips we went out to the sound on a NOAA vessel. I wasn’t a science major and the experience was very cool.

What do you keep in the water with the giant squid from keeping it from rotting and stinking?

[@KraisonFrameworks]

It's most likely formaldehyde, a type of preservative used primarily for organic material

He’s takin the specimens out one by one, I wonder if those specimens stank.

I kinda want to hold that anglerfish. I’m just imagining what kinda texture it has when you lightly squeeze it, looks like it has a spongy spring to it...
