I think the creature at 3:40 is a Basket star (Gorgonocephalidae ?) ? It has a distinct center and arms that divide in a lot of places, like a tree branch Seen like that, it looks like those dried ramen you put in water for a quick meal

This production is masterpiece. The colors, the shots, the music, and the narrator speaking slow and clear which is easy to listen for me whose english is not my first language. I love this so much!

The piano adds so much to this video I absolutely adore it

I love all your videos, but this one was extra interesting because starfish have always intrigued me and I know nothing about them. I’ve learned so much from this video! Thank you for all your hard work and effort ❤

You’ve made me want to learn more about the ocean from when I started watching you months ago

I was an astronomy major in college and I was certain that there were several other things I didn’t know about when graduation hit. Thank you for the engaging and intriguing content; you rock!

It's like watching Steve after he got a college education in Blues Clues. The gentlness in his voice makes me want to look closer at my screen to see what he is showing us. 🤣 Video is great. I knew Starfish had eyes, but i didn't know where.

We humans have something cool in common with starfishes (and other echinoderms). Vertebrates and echinoderms are Deuterostomes, meaning that during embryo development we both develop the anus first and the mouth last while creating our digestive tract. So yeah, echinoderms are the closest relatives among invertebrates to vertebrates (not considering other chordates of course)

@burner555

Why does the anus develop first?

@Elidhion

10 ай бұрын

@@burner555 i don't really know if it has an adaptive meaning but it is probably linked to a cathegory of genes that control development in the early stages of life. It just happened that in some moment in life history (probably during Ediacaran period) the first group of deuterostomes started developing anus before mouth. As I said, it's hard to find an adaptive explanation to "why" anus first, what advantage did it gave to fitness, but it happened. (forgive my English, I'm not a native speaker)

Not everything in evolution has a reason, sometimes it's just that it happened to happen that way in our common ancestors, so it's preserved in all its descendants. Molluscs and arthropods are the opposite, so it can happen either way.

Only Channel that actually really explains the structure and how things work on different animals , i really appreciate it !😊

I have 3 old specimens of starfish, they appear to be the same species but 1 has 4 arms, 1 with 5 arms and one has 6 arms. When you look underneath you can see where the extra arms grew from especially on the 6 arm one as it lost it further from the mouth and the 5th and 6th arm grew from the same spot. Their teeth seem to cover their tube feet.

You are brilliant - those things that you show us are almost unbelievable. I will never look at starfish and other sea animals the same again ❤❤❤

No matter how calmly you say it, I don’t think you can say “it can push its stomach out of its body” in any way that isn’t nightmare fuel.

I love how your videos are straight to the point and informative. Your videos are a great way to wind down after a lomg day and learn somthing new

I'm in love with the feeling I get when I watch your videos man. I feel like a kid learning about animals 🥰

I love all the effort and passion you put in each video, and I'm sad you aren't getting more recognition. Please keep up the amazing work💕

This was a very relaxing learning video

I love how calm and informative your videos are. I watch them with my 6 and 2 year-olds and they pay attention! Much appreciated!

Finally a way I can learn and not get distracted, bored, or disinterested. Thanks you💜💜💜

When I was little I had a big fish tank. While in the process of getting more fish for it, we ended up with just a small, black, and spikey starfish (not sure which kind) and one fish that looked like Dory from Finding Nemo. Little me watched Dory lose a fight to the starfish. At least the starfish got a good meal!

I did a bit of counting and the starfish at 0:32 has around 50 arms

I love the sound design of your videos. The quaint piano is like 'untitled goose game' and Australian 'play school'.

Honestly, I’m someone who likes, and is really interested in animals I’m glad I found this channel

I’ve gotta say, I find your format very endearing. As a parent, it’s perfect for kids, and yet not at all something us grownups can’t appreciate as well! Cheers

I love this channel so much, this crazy new info and details are delivered in such a simple way you can just get sucked into it! I sat my 3yo sister down to watch this one and she sat still through the whole thing!

really huge fan of your content. it's very gentle and curious, friendly for kids obviously, but for beginners of any age I think because it uses really accessible words and imagery!

Make a show in PBS kids and talk about stuff like this there will be geniuses walking all over

I absolutely absolutely love ur videos the way u explain things while still making jokes and it being interactive is soo dopee also i like the feeling of calmness i get while watching them so relaxing. you gained a subscriber sir!❤

Your videos are so amazing to just sit and watch and listen I love the music you add in the background it makes me more invested in the video, thank you for making these

There was a whole SpongeBob comic episode about the starfish eating method, Patric and SpongeBob ate the bikini bottom with their horrifying ways

I'm so hapoy I found this channel like yesterday. I've always loved to learn about strange ways of being and this channel is a treat! Not sure if I might have missed it and something's there already, but I'd love an episode on the strangest parasites. Like that wasp that manipulates ants and the like. Keep up the fascinating videos!

So happy to discover this video! You answered all of the questions we had about starfish and presented them in a way that was simple and straightforward enough to children to recall these facts later. THANK YOU!

The starfish was so shy but cute

I love the way you speak, so calm and easy to follow along

3:47 that was a basket star, which are starfish like creatures, more about them in Wikipedia.

Very well done ,interesting, and informative video! As someone else mentioned, its kind of like a calming PBS documentary

Love the piano riffs. Very cozy. Keep up the vids!

2:46 Starfish the horror movie

2:04 that starfish flipping is so cute 😊

2:09 call it evolution if you want , I don’t care. I just really like the way vacuum cleaners were provided for the floors of the sea. What a great idea!!!

Because I forgot aquariums exist for a minute, on one of my early ocean dives I got occupied by staring at starfish, waiting for them to move. My partner asked me wtf I was doing, and she reminded me on her slate that we can go watch them in huge tanks nearby where we wouldn't be relying on oxygen tanks. Hush, I'm a river otter. I specialize in fresh water.

7:02 was so funny the way it swims 😂😂

2:56 THAT AIN'T STARFISH THAT'S PATRICK STAR SNIFFING THE GROUND

Love how you teach the material ❤ its like mr rogers and mr science talking about sea creature❤️😊 love it.

Damn Patrick was waaaay darker than I thought Spongebob better be aware

The”starfish like to poop!”got me crying😂😂😂😂😂

Hey, I'm only in grade 2 and watching older school. Yep cuz i wanted to be a *Scientist, Doctor, Marine Scientist.* When i was born when my mom bathes me she talked about the ocean and say "Let's go to the ocean!" I said "where?" She said "Here!" It was a bath, I have go to the ocean before, One time i collected an *Alive Starfish.* My mom said "Don't touch it!" I said "Ok.." I love the ocean so i watch every sea animal videos from your youtube channel, Keep going further! - Channiesa Pupan from Thailand❤ Edit: Words

"Watch this timelapse." *Proceeds to play footage of starfish gliding around like a stopmotion video*

The star with a lot of arms is a basket star when it's prey gets close it closes up

I love your smooth voice and the little piano sound you used😂 They match so well ❤

Your videos make me feel like you're taking me along the delightful process of learning.

3:42 It was a basket star! It lives 1800 meters below the ocean and it can live up to 35 years

You are so good at this! Nice and easy and we learn So much! I appreciate that. I’ll have to try to find all your videos to watch. You were just talking Couches. Right away I grabbed my shell to see which it was. Thanks!

Every kid at a aquarium: it’s Patrick star

I love this video too much! I think that after this I will have a great interest in starfish, I hope that someday you can bring us a video about jellyfish because they are of great interest and a video of you would be fantastic!

I recently found many starfish on the coast. Currently in the proses of cleaning positioning and tagging with information for future museum donation pretty cool video for the current project

What I find most intriguing is how slow you have to be to be a starfish's prey, which narrow down to either very slow or you don't move at all

Wow, what a lovely video, I love sea stars, and this was such a nice way of showing them! The music cues, the editing, all of it is so pleasant and calm, it’s almost like it’s for everyone of any age, reminds me of Mr. Rodgers or similar, such a nostalgic feel for a new video!

The way you talk and explain, the montage, the little tunes playing and musics make me confortable and make me understand easily

Starfish: HElP I Can't GET UPuhBHBh The starfish who ran one of the starfish over: GOODBYE

You should give us a lesson on jellyfish. For example, how are jelly fish born? How do they live? Do they have hidden talents?

I love how this video was made like art! It kinda ended abruptly tho

2:56 btw, i think ( I'm confident) his arm falled off and grow back because is smaller than the others (in the center)

Teaching my grown ass something new lol . I randomly typed in starfish and found this. Subscribed & liked. This is brain food! Going to share with my toddler!

"Is it a bird!? " "Is it a plane!? " "NO! Its a scallop"

I love how peaceful this man sounds... i wanna be like him

Yours and DDOI are the best! I love watching them!

3:45 these are my headphones after I take them out from the pocket

3:45 I believe that’s a “Basket Star.” These are a kind of brittle star, but are in a different taxonomic order.

This video was so well done for kids. Adults too but if I had kids I’d show them this

I LOVE your channel & the way you present very intriguing information 😁👍

I just wanted to let you know that your video was truly fascinating. However, as a perfectionist, I couldn't help but notice a small flaw that I believe many others have also noticed. Every time you perform the book trick, you always end up on the page about owls. This caused a bit of confusion for me, but overall, I found your video to be incredibly informative.

2:03 my favourite moment

Im so curious what line of work results in having access to make these wonderful videos

2:54 that is the new skinwalker, love ur vids!

too beautiful to watch once. my heart is melting... what a comfy video

I love your videos, can't wait for more!

The ginormous squiggly diggly ''Starfish''Is probably a brittle star

Starfish are weird. My dad had a starfish. It grabbed his clownfish out of the water and tried to eat it. My dad stopped it and the starfish is now named monster and lives in a different tank
