Hey everyone! So I usually try to make some goofy joke here to encourage you to go check out my Patreon, but I think I'm gonna try a more honest approach this time. Between doing the research, writing the script, sourcing the videos/photos, and editing it all together, these videos take _a lot_ of time, effort, and energy to make. So if you can, supporting me over on my Patreon is always a really big help: www.patreon.com/theoctopuslady It makes this rather unstable job of being a KZbinr a _little bit_ more stable, which makes it that much easier for me to make these videos. If you don't have the means to support me, that's all right! I understand. Your time and attention is enough. 💜🐙💜

Hello OctopusLady, First of all: thank you for your excellent, entertaining, educational work! Our family is always joyous when a new video drops. Second: I wanted to mention the existence of Marie Tharp, the woman who actually discovered the Mid-Atlantic Ridge but whose work was first derided as "girl-talk" and then used by Heezen et al without attribution. Sadly, her name and contributions are, even now, largely unknown. Marie Tharp, champion of the continental drift theory!

[@ceejno7861]

Was curious so I skimmed the geological stuff reeeeally quickly, and the gist seems to be that mantle currents are a thing, but it turns out the tectonic plates are causing them rather than being caused BY them. And the plates are actually being moved by... gravity, basically. Colder, denser plates sink into the mantle due to their weight, and the force of a sinking plate pulls the nearest plate closer to it. So they drag each other around. I think I might've seen a similar effect in person when I was pressing vanilla wafers into banana pudding the other day.

[@TlalocTemporal]

Ah, so instead of subduction happening because playes are being pushed together by the mantle, the mantle is dragged by plates that are pulled by subducting plate edges! I wonder how much the newly forming oceanic plate pushes or drags the rest of the plates.

[@c0dy1287]

Well now all I can think about is banana pudding

And if you look into some of the books Lovecraft name drops in other works, it's hilarious. Seriously, read W. Scott Elliot's "The story of Atlantis and lost Lemuria". It mostly used earthquakes heaving and dropping land masses to explain changing continent shapes, but Lovecraft used it to hint to how R'lyeh sunk and caused Cthulhu to go into his deathless slumber. It also talked about occult clairvoyance to explain how the authors knew that ancient Atlanteans were made of energy, left no fossils, and had domesticated dinosaurs. Also, bees and wheat were gifts from aliens on Venus ... I think. Seriously, read it, it's bloody hilarious.

I love hydrothermal vents and hope to work on them someday, so it was great to see them covered!! The origin of life is hotly debated, but Chem thug did a great job explaining the basic principles of the vent hypothesis One thing I did want to point out: not only was it those geologists involved in plate tectonics, but an amazing woman named Marie Tharp whose maps of the ocean based off of satellite and the navy research was a huge push towards tectonic plate theory :) If you ever want to chat about anaerobic microbes and the awesome nature of weird life l’m down!

Fantastic video, as I've learned to expect from this excellent find of a channel. 2:10 So glad you included this bit and even showed the pages of your work that ultimately got discarded. I feel like many folks (myself often included) fail to realize how much more challenging it is to be genuinely conscientious about the accuracy of what you put out. In a world thick with people carelessly shouting over each other waving desperately for attention. I'm so glad to find another creator who's actually deserving of it.

[@slowpnir]

7:00 not only the water _superheated,_ it is also _supercritical_ which makes it an ultrasolvent. The temperature is a non-reason, as hot water can solve _less_ stuff. The reason is the combined level of pressure _and_ temperature which turns water supercritical (liquid and vapor "are indistinguishable" in this state) which makes it an ultrasolvent. When the supercritical solution exits the crevice, it looses the pressure and becomes normal water again, and solved material flakes out of it. This explains why we see the black fountain and not a flame-like structure.

[@koukhang9118]

That theory would make sense as she said in the video, vents are temperamental and most of the creatures would either have to constantly migrate or switch into another form or stasis to survive. Like where do all the tube worms go when a vent shuts down and then when a new vent forms, where did the organisms come from?

You and Chem Thug really made my day! About half-way through Chem Thug’s description of hydrogen ion transit through the vents, it dawned on me that he was describing something that sounded an awe full lot like Kreb’s cycle, and suddenly t clicked… life from lifelessness! I promise not to build a monster or to use protomatter in the Genesis matrix, but it is really amazing that I can come home after a long work day, check KZbin, and in my own kitchen eating leftovers learn a very plausible theory answering one of the greatest questions in human history! Thank you both! (Hoping a paper doesn’t disprove the whole thing next week!)

21:10 according to a recent Microcosmos video, some species of bacteria can photosynthesize using the infrared light from the vents. Admittedly, these are sulfur bacteria, but it wouldn't surprise me if something figured out how to make oxygen down there. (Either that, or using some other chemical.)

[@regulate.artificer_g23.mdctlsk]

I think splitting water molecules into oxygen molecules takes a lot of energy that I doubt is posible with infrared photochemical reaction.

Great video with lots of cool info and presented in a way that is easy to understand. First time I heard about hydrothermal vents and the fact that those are pretty much oasises for deep see life it was so mind blowing. Marine biology is so cool man. Usually you are not exposed to this kind of stuff as a normal dude and finding out that actually there is a whole different process other than photosynthesis than allows life to use highly toxic stuff to LIVE at the bottom of dark cold ocean where animals are usually eat dead organic matter is reminding me that we have a lot of stuff to learn about the rock we live on

Also: I believe the more favoured reason plates move is that they are being pulled down at subduction zones. Like, the colder part of the rock plate is more dense, and sinks, and that pulls the entire rest of the plate with it. Also I am pretty sure that mantle convection *still happens*, it's just no longer believed to be the main driving force anymore.

Amazing video. Particular shout-out goes to the fantastic animation from nebula studios, but in general, brilliant video.

this was so informative! in part, I was really happy with how easy it was for me to follow along, proving to me that I am much more knowledgeable about chemistry than uni makes me feel I am : ) that final segment on combatting despair and appreciating the era we're born in, which is a pivotal moment in human history, was incredibly important and profound

I've been waiting for this since I woke up and saw the notification. I am so excited.

Hi The Octopus Lady, I only recently found your videos and I'm now in the middle of binging your videos. I wanted to thank you for essentially restarting my hyperfixation and love for the ocean and everything in it. I find your videos absolutely fascinating, entertaining and educational. Cant wait to watch more and see what else in the ocean you may post about. ❤😁

You talk about plate tectonics being a new scientific principle, but I remember going to school in the 1990s and we still had indecision over the cause of the mass extinction at the end of the Cretaceous, and the "all the volcanoes in the world or an insane super volcano erupted and killed everything" explanation was actually more accepted than "Big space rock bonked us". Science changes quick, it's a great thing.
