The Kauai 'o'o story at the beginning is really chilling... even the song itself sounds kind of haunting. It sounds like the bird itself was scared, as if it somehow knew it was the last one left. I can't imagine what it must feel like to be the only one left.

@birdytaken

Жыл бұрын

thats so incredibly sad. there was a reverb added to it to give it that haunting effect but if you think about it it was just singing out of habit it still lived a very filling life. That o'o bird did have a mate in 1980. I loved and lost and after it was the only one left it had a "new normal" it learned to live amongst the other birds for years. Still doing it's call but I do not think it felt a lone or sorrow. I think it just did its best with what it had

He looks very well for 90 years old.

I'm glad they talked about the human drive to categorize everything, and how those categories, even if they seem natural and obvious to us, do not necessarily exist *in themselves*. It's a thing we study a lot in my field, social anthropology. What's especially interesting is when we come across something that doesn't fit into our previous system. Then things get interesting.

Humans and our fascination with classification is actually extremely interesting and probably is a tool that helped us gain the initial edge over our primate relatives. The need to use our brains more for survival is the greatest struggle our early ancestors went through. Attenborough is truly a hero and I love hearing him speak

The story about the Kauaʻi ʻōʻō bird was very impactful. That moment is probably one of the best moments that has been on this channel in its history, in my opinion.

Haunting and beautiful, yet mournful and saddening. I have to wonder if it was largely our fault that such a bird vanished from the earth. It's a shame, considering it's such a nice sounding call.

David’s such an amazing guy, he’s humble saying he has no advice, but he just gave the greatest advice in saying he has none to give. Documentary filmmakers shouldn’t ask yesterday’s what to do, they must turn to the technology of the future and in the equipment of tomorrow they’ll find the answer of tomorrow’s documentary filmmaking. To get closer than ever before, reach new places, see behaviors undisrupted by observation, show change, innovate in presentation. But David’s not the dinosaur he humbly claims to be, he rides that wave of the future, he stands at the forefront alongside the next generation, his passion still burning as he approaches 100 years of age. We shan’t see his like again.

I wish Mr. Attenborough would live forever! He is simply the best thing that's ever happened to nature. I love to watch any presentation he puts on and he has also made me love nature as well. Mr. Attenborough you have reached many many peoples hearts.

Too bad it's a misnomer. You can't autobiograph someone else (or something - since we're talking about our planet). The term itself defines a biography about yourself written by yourself. If you take away the "auto" then it will be accurate: We are our planet's biographers.

Your best video yet! Sir David is a legend, We need lots more people like him, preferably in positions of power - when I see stories like the technologies we've developed to plunder resources and further smash up the already-declining ice sheets of the Arctic, the jungles of the equator and everything in between, I fear for our species, and it's people like David (well, and Michael) that give me some hope. Thank you!

This video is a world treasure

David Attenborough is one of my favorite people of all time.. I envy him for his apparently fantastic life.. what a beautiful individual, thank you Sir David for the countless hours of entertainment and learning that you've given me- and now starting to give to my son as well! I've searched your name on Netflix dozens of times to be able to watch every program you've been apart of and of course to see if you've got any new ones!

Sir David is a titan of humanity. Micheal, I have only come across your channel today but I would be happy to put you in the same category. Great stuff!

The Kaua'i 'Ō 'Ō bird singing to nobody, to nothing, alone, is the saddest damn thing I've ever heard. You hear of extinction events in the news and read about them in books but you never really consider that when a species goes extinct that at some point there was just one left, an animal that no matter how successful, no matter how strong and long living or fertile would die alone, wondering where the rest are. Thank god for David Attenborough. Most of what I know about the flora and fauna of Earth over the last 30 years has been down to his incredible programs. And well done Michael for this interview.

Either Google's subtitle auto-generator has gotten much better over the last few years or these guys speak really clearly because these are some of the most accurate auto-generated subtitles I've ever read.

90 years old. Absolutely incredible. This man lived what I would consider the perfect life. Seeing nature in all its beauty, recording and sharing it to us. So much respect for what he and his teams have done.

The story at the beginning about the last male bird of the species calling for a mate really brought tears to my eyes.

Fantastic episode, absolutely adore Sir David Attenborough and Planet Earth 2 is just so wonderful to watch!

Incredible. I've never really appreciated Attenborough for his work for human kind and animals but to hear he is 90 years old and say "he's still learning and struggling with things" in the presence of a question for advice is very humbling. Plus to be 90 and so cognitively sound and healthy is so great to see.

You have David Attenborough... glorious

Life is beautiful and complex. It is brutal and disgusting. It is instant and it is eternal. It can be caught but never pinned down. and everything on this planet is dying without any meaning but to continue living. No matter how hard it gets, no matter how many awful things we do to each other, life carries on. God, its good to be alive. I would probably cry if I ever met that man, Sir Attenborough has been my hero since I was 10 years old.

The introduction was sad, yet beautiful Thank you for this experience

Not watched Vsauce in four years, but I tell you what, the intro was the best intro to any KZread video I've ever seen.
