Fungus is almost as impressive a Sir Attenborough himself. I love learning from such an iconic narrator. And to think he is still working at 95 (approaching 96!). Thanks for all the entertaining and educational media, you have, and continue to produce Sir David Attenborough. 🤟

May Attenborough live on for a very long time. This man is a gem for human civilization - one full of myth, superstition and pseudoscience. People like him are needed..

I think all of your videos need to be retitled when Sir David Attenborough is in them. He is a "Sir" after all and should be announced correctly. Especially with all the marvelous this he has done for us all. I thank you Sir David Attenborough.

Sir David is such an amazing man. I feel so lucky to have been able to live during the same time as him. Growing up with his educational material has been a huge privilege.

I love sir David Attenborough! Meeting him,or even going on a nature walk with him,has always been somewhere at the top of my bucket list!😎

Absolutely the best narrator for anything and everything nature. His humbleness and vocabulary go hand in hand. I only wish that he was immortal and had many more years left to continue educating people of the barbaric things that are happening to our planet! He can pull you in and keep your attention for long lengths of time on any subject. I could sit and watch his shows forever. You can learn a lot from folks like David Attenborough.

Endless generations of people will be able to understand the Natural World that much better with Video and David Attenborough commenting.

I'm on a Sir David Awesomeborough youtube kick and I can't stop!

What will the world be without Mr. Attenborough

May David be forever immortal!

Fungi are why we have so much coal. Well the lack of fungi that is :-) Fungi were not well developed back in the Carboniferous period so when the first woody plants died they weren't broken down as they are today so dead trees piled up then got covered up and became coal. Today wood is broken down so efficiently that little more coal will ever be produced.

In South Dakota Oaks don’t do so well, Oldest I saw was 250…. And the power company made us cut it down even after we begged for it to stay. I worked for power company clearing or trimming trees away from lines… their approach to nature around lines is Desolation, if they could turn whole area around power lines into empty desert wasteland they would. That old beautiful oak was 50 feet below the lines but the wanted everything clear cut because their lazy and stupid. The morons would have saved money had we just left whole are alone the lines where high enough trees would never touch them but dumbass OCD paper pushers in office have trouble seeing beyond their own stupid rules and OCD behavior . We completely destroyed a whole grove turned it into wood chips. I no longer work for them and im seeking job or volunteer work planting caring for new trees to find forgiveness for so many I have killed. They loved me at that job but usually got pretty annoyed when I whined about hitting trees lol. I’ve almost cost other boss work trying to convince people to keep their trees.

@@BigDsGaming2022 it depends on the species. Southern live oaks (named for their evergreen leaves) can live to be hundreds of years old, as can Eastern white oaks. The Angel Oak of South Carolina is thought to be between 400 and 500 years old, but they can’t tell for sure because the trunk is hollow, and you can’t count tree rings that aren’t there. If you’re not from the US Southeast, and you’re going to be visiting, it’s worth taking a trip to see some of the centuries old live oaks.

The fungus that has a symbiotic relationship with the oak tree is Mycorrhizal fungus. i use it when growing just about everything. Great stuff.

There are voices that we all grew up on, listening to, as the narrator's of our favorite stories, the life of our animated characters. Unique and distinct from all of the rest of us. I used to think that if one could imitate any of those voices that had retired from active acting careers, or from life itself, that unknown voice talent would always be able to secure work just because of how much people are comforted by the familiar sound of their voice. For example... Whoever the voice talent is for Roger on American Dad is doing Paul Lynde, I believe. Morgan Friedman, James Earl Jones, Burgess Meredith, Berle Ives, Sam Elliot, Jimmy Durante, Anthony Hopkins, Patrick Stewart, Phyllis diller, za za Gabor, Whoopi Goldberg, the guy who did whinnie the poo, there are many more. You get the idea Now I think that a data bank of all of each one of their voices ever recorded, and an AI algorithm that's able to assemble all of the subtle nuance of emotion etc, will be able to fill that role better. Then I wonder if the voice is able to be copyrighted and the owner of that would be able to be compensated for that work. Or trademarked or wtvr. Hell, I think entire movies will be able to be made using dead actors from an assembly of a persons images and movies. Like a brand new western starting john Wayne's image. Etc.

So the lack of fungi in an area is why planting new trees fail

I l❤️Ve this ❤️

Important note, symbiosis and mutualism are not one and the same. Mutualism is a symiotic relationship but symbiotic relationships are not necessarily mutualistic.

David explaining why Recharge works.. Lol

I've been making mushroom juice from whole mushrooms , and putting it out in the wild , in the hope the spores row and fruit , as it's been Reishi , and Shitakae so far . Finding the right types of fallen tree is a hit and mis affair , as all are candidates for sowing , as are the portabello and white button mushrooms when properly ripe , into grass fields to help improve soil quality - and maybe , on a 'good' day , a few field mushrooms or one of the others for a feed , as most folks leave the mushrooms alone , except for the Amanita Muscaria , whose fruit is often destroyed - mistaken belief that it's poison , when it's a medicinal , when used properly .

I think human being can listen very low frequency sound sometime I get angry , sometime my heart pains sometime it is happy, by every feel of heart I feel about heart bring the message for me which mind decoded in the language we speak .

Most fungi are symbiotic. Life as we know it would not exist without them.

Just a question please if someone can confirm or answer. I thought it were the bacteria which ate the sugars from around the roots, and the fungi then fed on the bacteria? Sir David is saying that the fungi feed on the sugar. The fungi help the plant get nutrients because it wants the tree to produce sugar to feed the bacteria which it then eats. Which is correct? Thankyou for a brilliant production.

There are two different scenarios. 1. In this video fungii gets sugars directly from plant and provides nitrogen to the tree. 2.

There are also bacteria that form symbiotic relationships with some plants in the same nitrogen-for-sugar exchange. Fungi also have the advantage that their huge mycelial networks can collect water for the plants and even pass chemical messages and food to them. Some forest trees feed their young through the mycorrhizal internet to keep them alive until a big tree dies and they can sustain themselves with the newly exposed sun.

It's crazy that almost all plants depend on fungi but only 1 to 10% of fungi engage in mutualistic relationships with plants. As Kingdoms in a relationship they've got some talking to do about what they expect from each other.

I mean fungi were there first. They started their life on land by growing on plant parts that washed up on beaches, long before plants grew on land. There were also fungi that lived off of minerals and bacteria and helped create the first soils. Without fungi and bacteria making the land more habitable plants would have had a much harder time establishing ground there. Fungi simply don't need plants as much as plants need them.

Funny man!

Mushrooms are so terrifying!

You completely misunderstood the quintessence of the video. First of all they are not talking about any one fungus in particular but about a whole class of fungi. And the fungi showcased in this video are not parasitic, they are symbiotic*. Also listen to Attenborough: 3:17 The fungi are not a danger to the tree but the reason why the tree could survive for so long. And then in his last sentence he goes on to say that 90% of all plants depend on fungi to survive. *parasitic: host takes harm symbiotic: mutually beneficial
