Underwater Creatures - The Legacy of Jacques Cousteau | Free Documentary Nature

[@FreeDocumentaryNature]

I loved Jacques Cousteau and watched his series every Sunday night with my mom and dad and brother and sister. Everybody loved his documentaries. This film reconstructs the life of the famed marine biologist and environmental pioneer using a fascinating mix of wildlife footage, archive material, and elaborate re-enactments. On the trail of the most famous oceanographer of the 20th Century, who was born over 100 years ago, the team spent two years filming on original locations on three different continents and in four different oceans. Enjoy!

Same... he was the original G.O.A.T. He pioneered televised sea exploration! He definitely was a big factor in my love for wildlife.

[@FreeDocumentaryNature]

Oh absolutely. A true trailblazer.

[@sabbyd1832]

Yes, me too and I've always been a conservationist

[@COOPERSCICHILDS]

Indeed 💯🙏👍🏿

[@plumbermike3246]

Real awesome 👏🏻

[@Peachie4011]

Thanks for this. I remember watching Jacques Cousteau with my Daddy when I was little. I have great memories of the show. Mutual Omahas Wild Kingdom is a classic also. Cheers!

[@COOPERSCICHILDS]

I grew up watching his shows never missed a episode thank you for this video

[@FURBjr]

I feel that somewhere Jacques Cousteau and Rod Serling are looking down with good feelings knowing that they educated so many about the fragility of the natural world, and motivated many to try and protect and restore the bounty of the world's waters. RIP.

I watched Jaques as a child, this brings back such good memories & bad, hope young people see & learn

[@kindtimetraveler]

I’ve always LOVED nature docs, but man, they’re such an emotional roller coaster these days. Sometimes I almost can’t…but then I remember that the unprecedented damage being done to our wildlife & their habitats is going to continue unabated if folks aren’t made aware of it & if we don’t pass the message on. Sigh. 🥺

[@carlamoore2710]

I used to watch every weekend because that was the only time that I could watch Under Sea or Under the Sea with Jacques Cousteau and his son Philippe. This is what is so amazing about KZbin You can relive and watch some of the things you watched as a child.

[@w00dducksadventures48]

Ran across this gem video while watching Cousteau videos. I like most watched the original series as a child, which actually lead me to get certified as a diver. Always wondered how cool it would be if someone or group would re travel Jacques original trips and locations ( as this one does to some extent) Sad that the family legacy broke up after the Calypso sunk. Thanks for sharing !!

[@JackBQuick79]

I vacation by binging these documentaries. Thank you for the top notch content.

Wow! Brings back memories! This is a wonderful documentary. I hope they are able to raise the money and help the preservation of water life, since they help the ecosystem. Thank you for sharing! 🙆🏾‍♀️❤

[@roxanneweichinger9318]

Thankyou for this documentary. I use to watch Jacques Cousteau when I was in elementary school, and was surprised to hear the narrator say that J.Cousteau was more interested in exploiting the ocean than preserving it. I’m glad Cousteau later realized how important it was to save marine life after he saw what happened to the Mediterranean Sea in the early 1970’s.

A que bom " amo documentários sobre a natureza ! Parabéns .....

[@NomadShifu]

French naval officer, ocean explorer, filmmaker, and author Jacques Cousteau is known for his extensive undersea investigations and for co-inventing the first fully automatic compressed-air Aqua-Lung. His explorations were the subject of award-winning documentaries and TV shows as well as popular books.

[@BroccoliHead7]

Never heard of him

[@underseaworld9435]

At 16:05, the narrator say's "No one knows why but some sharks are drawn to the sound of squeaking plastic bottles." Well, I know why sharks are attracted to squeaky plastic bottles. But I'm not going to tell why.

[@beejay7088]

Amazing videos, interacting with me 👍👍

[@theitineranthistorian2024]

Cousteau apologetics? Florida is in big trouble, in so many ways. Cousteau was one of the first activists for our planet and its citizens. He did an amazing video on the coca explosion of the 70s. Blizzard in the Andes. His foundation should have been kept as a national treasure.

[@WI-FI_GOD]

15:57 wow I didn’t know you can do that to attract their curiosity

[@randyeast2542]

Does anyone know the status of the restoration of the Calypso ? Nothing recent even on the Societie's site. How could the world let this dream die? The one that spawned so many scientist, researchers, educators. Sad....

[@dugan6056]

I don't know where you get the idea that there is only one of Cousteau's wrecks remaining. They're all still there.

[@blessedbeauty2293]

- 11:11 that guy was a MONSTER ughh

[@tdiddle8950]

This documentary needs to go heavier on science and lighter on histrionics. The Gulf of Mexico is particularly warm in the winter, relative to other US waters, because of the upwelling currents from southerly climes that are climactically inherent in the hydrology of the Gulf basin. Manatees flock to spring-fed waterways particularly because of the geothermal warming effect...not because inland rivers are inherently warmer. Because, inland waterways are NOT inherently warmer than the gulf.

[@curtcoller3632]

Roxanne says it more friendly. I watched Cousteau and Hans Hass movies as well. Since I'm Austrian, and France never had a friendly relationship with German speaking populations (understandably) I preferred Hass and read lots of his books when I was in high school. Yet, I did not know what an ignorant Custeau was. I just knew that money was always more important to him and that the "accident" with his science vessel was in fact a staged insurance fraud. Both, Hans and Jacques brought me later to visit the Maldives, Thailand and Indonesia for diving vacations. I loved Cousteau's movies but never his attitude.

Is a very different sea now, the sea now is in horrible condition and sadly getting worst every day and nothing will stop this.

[@lynnleigha580]

How do people go into a wild animals habitat and kill it because it's "dangerous." Like, home owners are dangerous to burglars but nobody kills them. Just sickening! I'm glad that nowadays people have learned more and don't slaughter them anymore, yes, I know that some ashats, all around the world, still slaughter them and should be locked up because some places don't know how to regulate

[@cynthcorcor126]

I was in this standing in the boat.

[@franciscocepeda8416]

I propose for the completely abandon and even absolutely erase any trace of human habitation in the areas where manatees go and spend winters and a reintroduction of their food item. It’s more bareable for them to see several divers filming documentaries than to have us bothering them. Let the sight seeing happen in the summer in the open sea
