"Reef Life of the Andaman" is a documentary of the marine life of Thailand and Burma (Myanmar). It is available on DVD at www.amazon.com/shop/bubblevision
Scuba diving more than 1000 times from the coral reefs and underwater pinnacles of Thailand's Similan Islands, Phuket, Phi Phi Island and Hin Daeng, to Myanmar's Mergui Archipelago and Burma Banks, I encountered everything from manta rays to seahorses, whale sharks to shipwrecks. The 116-minute film features descriptions of 213 different marine species including more than 100 tropical fish, along with sharks, rays, moray eels, crabs, lobsters, shrimps, sea slugs, cuttlefish, squid, octopus, turtles, sea snakes, starfish, sea cucumbers, corals, worms etc..

    @@ericastier1646 I'm not sure that bankers have quite as close ties with the human race destroying animals habitats and just plain driving them to the brink of extinction, but you're right about humans devastating effects on the world and the animal kingdom in general. When I was a young kid I watched a lot of nature documentaries. I especially loved the filming done by Jaques Cousteau and his crew on the Calypso. The general theme throughout all of the films was positive and showed the thriving different animal communities and their habitats. But that is completely gone now. It really breaks my heart to watch today's documentaries because the theme has changed to the population is dropping in almost every single species on the planet. In the rainforest they are saying that there are species that are going extinct before we even learn of their existence, every single day. The climate is changing everywhere and when we start to look for the causes, it links directly to us! And one last rant. It's ironic that what sets us apart from the animals is that we have the ability to reason, animals do not. Yet they have never destroyed the habitat that they live in. We can think about our actions and how they will affect our future and yet we still choose to destroy the only earth that we have faster than ever before. Why?

    I loved the footage of the whale shark! Many years ago, a friend had a spiritual experience with a whale shark: she was guest on a shrimping boat owned by a family member. A whale shark swam up beside the shrimp boat, seeming curious. The shark was HUGE, longer than the boat. My friend was so taken by the nearness of the shark and leaned over for a better look. The shark rolled slightly to see her better. The made eye contact, just a couple of feet apart. My friend said it was like making eye contact w another intelligent being. She said time seemed to stand still and she got goosebumps! Glowing Bio-luminescent algae on the shark's skin made it seem even more mystical. She told me that was very touched by this experience.

I had a personal experience like your friend but this was a great white and as I was standing by the fish plate looking at nothing particularly. When looking down along side the ship was the biggest shark I had ever seen and it had turned on its side looking up at me. You won't believe this but it's black eye was as big as a 20" tire.

No matter what point I woke up, I was interested enough to pay attention to the video and they helped me focus away from how I felt enough that i could relax even after watching multiple times. I grew up on the coast and marine life fascinates me. I love how you tell the proper names of everything and the photography is fantastic. The music? There's one that I'm not fond of but for the most part, I like it.

    You are a smart person to use nature doc's as a distraction. Im glad to see on the other comments tht u are better, but your right its great how they identify all the dif species n the camera work is great. I also liked tht they mentioned how divers at night can confuse all the fish, it seemed like they wanted to be sure not to bother them anymore than necessary.

    Marine life looks nothing like this anymore this is all internet if you went to see what it look like it would hurt your feelings. Global warming has destroyed those beautiful reefs and now they're dying their bleached there's barely anything for the sharks to eat because the fish can't hide so they cannot multiply. What's in the next 30 years they'll probably be no marine life at all if we don't do something now to fix it

My absolute favorite is Jonathan Bird's Blue World because of the human intervention and human reaction with all the alien life beneath the waves. But I think I shall have to send this video/documentary to Jonathan and his team as an FYI. Mind-boggling that we fear aliens from outer space when we have every single type of lifeform living within the same specifications all of us adhere to right here on this planet. To get to know and appreciate and love our planet, ourselves and all life even more!
