Forrest is one of my favorite scientists and he's amazing on podcasts too. I could listen to him talk all day!

@@rjuwuxd3012 Because he tells made up fucking tales lmao

Yeah he's done a few with Jo rogan always been a good listen

@@cammybrown1626 Yeah I really enjoyed them, you can just tell how much passion he actually had for wildlife, it's incredible

Oh

Also from East London, can't say I go visit the weird ass statue we have, but everyone of us know about it for sure

As a non uk person I can not see me going there anytime soon

This is East London, South Africa. Not the UK@@SAMIAMFNX

Also remember a school trip there some 28 years ago. Been hoping for some 20+ years the country would get better as it’s a beautiful amazing place. Maybe in another 20 hey

are they protected ? hopefully we dont exterminate the species

agree ...totally

Jolly good jest indeed

lol at the funny take. But yeah, it is called coelacanth because of the hollow tubed spine referred to as a coelom filled with an oily fluid. I think it would have been worth mentioning in the video.

@@busybillyb33 Awesome, that's good to know

Yeah, it funny how NOW we act all confident about exactly how many there are left and where they are… considering us humans only just recently found all but 3 of em. 🤔….IdK!? These sneaky ‘Concealacanth’ b**tards seem pretty damn crafty to me. They just up and stopped evolving and stayed hidden? They’re patiently waiting us humans out, biding their time in a state that allowed to to survive the last mass extinction event. They’re waiting for the next one THEN they’ll make their move, all come out, finish fully evolving, and rule the planet as some kind of super intelligent, species of amphibious fish people…who already know what they’ll need post climate change. Lol. They’re probably already thinking 🐸…💭 ‘Dopey humans! If ya planned on melting the ice caps ya should’ve grew your lungs but kept your gills…like us” Come to think of it, it’s probably not a great sign that these fishy geniuses are only now, in recent decades, coming up to check on us close enough where three of em have been caught already.

i wonder how would it taste

old? :) @@literally_alec

@@literally_alec I've heard it tastes absolutely terrible!

I wonder how it would… you know what maybe it’s time to log off for today

@@literally_alecit uses its tongue to taste with just like us

Just a gentle reminder that orcas are not fish; they are marine mammals. 👍

@@AGDinCA If he persists, just slap him with one of your evolved flippers.

@@davidanderson2357 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@davidanderson2357 What we have to persist is that Thoughty2 called Indonesian coelacanth as Indian -_- Seriously

@@IOHiopa Coelacanth isn’t “Indonesian.” It’s a fish. If you wanna get picky, they live in waters off of _Africa,_ in the _Indian_ Ocean. Across the gulf from Indonesia. If we’re humanizing animals, it’s either African or Indian. The only Indonesian thing about it is the person who discovered it. And, as we all know, the ethnicity of the person who discovers something doesn’t actually matter, and never has. We care more about the actual discovery, the animal.

Sadly not all knowledge is documented nor shared... A large part of it is just lost to time, at least historically, until the internet appeared

Coelacanth is also a Yugioh Monster. Super Ancient Deepsea King Coelacanth :D

Why would he make a reference to a Pokémon?

@@deepseadarew6012apparently its called sea king in indonesia

@@clopsy4559 It's literally one of the most popular franchises in the entire gaming history. Why would anyone avoid making a pokemon reference ?

agreed.

his storytelling is remarkable

Perhaps it is the methods which Thought2 uses to teach or the maturity of your present self that keeps you interested.

yep...so true@@kiltedsasquatch3693

The duck walked up to the lemonade stand, and e said to the man running the stand "hey!" Bom bom bom, got any grapes?

People like you make comment sections an absolute delight. A fun tidbit that also exposes me to a never before heard of band, thank you Dear🌻

Thanks. I might have liked that in the 1980s and I don't know if it would have been available in US. I listened to "Lined Up" too since I would more likely to hear that.

The track made me look deeper into the not-so-extinct fish, and one was spotted off the coast of Sierra Leone in the 50's. The track itself is quite haunting.

I’m sorry about your loss! May God give you strength in this difficult time.

So you are like in your 60's?

@@who-ny5oe In November I'll reach the big 60.

@@BradGryphonn I'm 21 so I'm quite young and I can't wait to see what my life have in store for me.

@who-ny5oe If I can offer some advice, treat your life as an adventure. There will be highs and lows, but don't ever do what you feel you have to do to satisfy your peers. You do you and explore. Do the things YOU want to do. You'll thank yourself in the future. Rock n Roll!

I've noticed that most of those run for 90 seconds. The channels promise a set amount of "airplay" to their sponsor. It's never random, so just skip ahead 80 seconds when they start. You'll usually be close to the end of the ad. ✌️

Magnolias are another ancient tree still around today. It may have been the first flowering tree.

Someone's grandad is a bullsh*tter.

How? He caught fish from the ocean

A lot of locals in Africa and the Indies knew of the fish but didn't know they were that rare and undiscovered. Most fisherman just sold them after they died or released them to the water.

The kid will be ready for school soon after its first breath.

How about a Kilted Sasquatch?

@@kiltedsasquatch3693 sure

Yes, Kepler & other heliocentric scientists faced the religious scorn back then. Didn't they? It's a joke for science to be not treated as science. People need to provide more evidence than sticking to their beliefs religiously. This is why I think pseudo science must be classified as a new religion. A true scientist will be amused when somebody proves him wrong. A pseudo scientist will indoctrinate themselves as people of various religion do to themselves and their group. Is it any different or is it one of those basic fallacies of man?

P😊

Funny they are still a bunch of trash-talking drama queens to this day :)

I guess the fact that DNA disproves Darwin's hypothesis of evolution is irrelevant.

​@@lanefunai4714 yeah, no it doesn't, ya troll.

Uninteresting?!

@@milanradojkovic3818 Right? Like, it's a once thought extinct species being rediscovered after millions of years. Where is the uninteresting part? The fact it's a fish? Most once extinct species of animals are most likely to be sea animals due to the fact that they were the most well-off animals when the meteor wiped out most other species.

Really? This is basic general knowledge. You need to start reading books.

@@thursoberwick1948but reading books isn’t useful and it’s not ‘basic’ knowledge

@@clopsy4559 Reading books is EXTREMELY useful. You'll find a wider range of opinions there than you ever will on UKposts or Faecebook which are policed to the gills.

@@thursoberwick1948 what books do you read?

@@AdamSharif. I've read hundreds of books. You might as well asking which food I eat. I can't read everything but I read everything from novels to books on science, linguistics, architecture, art etc. They go into far more depth than websites do including Wikipedia.

Whether we discovered it or not wouldn't have changed the fact that we would still be doing "human activity" in the ocean. It would have gone extinct without us realising that it was there to begin with. Now that we know it's there, we can, hopefully, preserve it.

Hey

Are you using the scientific definition of "theory" or the layman's definition? They are two very different definitions.

@@glennjpanting2081 pretty sure that he is not using the scientific definition of theory
