I learned a ton in this video! Usually I just watch these videos to reaffirm things I’ve already heard and see the wonderful photography, but this time around I found out a bunch of new stuff!

I came to learn only about Manta rays, since they're one of my most favorite animals in the world, and I ended up discovering many more amazing rays in the process! I have a new found liking for the Torpedo ray! Thank your for the amazing video! You've got a new fan/ subscriber.

Your videos are the best! I enter a zen-like state through the amazing music and great facts. I think it would be cool to be a marine biologist, and watching your videos further reinforces that. Keep it up!

I came here to see footage of manta rays, but man those eagle spotted rays are just beautiful ! stunning!

[captainkrieg]

Thank you. It’s lovely to actually know the differences between sharks, rays, and skates while watching beautiful shots.

My knowledge increased about these sweet marine animals, you guys are the best, but you guys certainly knew that!

I love all creatures of the Seas. This video was awesome! I've been waiting for a new one and wasn't disappointed. :) Could you do a video possibly on Wild Orcas?

[Irena_Posner]

Such a fun channel. Whenever I feel blue or bored, I can come here and there's always something beautiful and soothing to watch. :)

[edwardelric]

I love this episode! I love getting all the info about these creatures and your enthusiastic explanations makes it a 100 times!

Skate babies: I know I must camouflage myself in order to survive
Human babies: I must cry rapidly for no odd reason.

Thank you for up-close shots of all these beautiful animals. I see them when I dive, but not as personnel as this! (:

In 1964 I was five years old we lived on a boat in Kingston Harbor Jamaica but we lived in Port Royal yes the port royal in fact we lived in a marina the very small marina that was only like 200 feet from the seawall that went down into the ocean at the epicenter of the earthquake true story...
manta rays would be catapulting out of the water out in the bay and you can hear their slaps as they landed from miles away every once in a while someone will hook one just fishing off the boat dock and one time an old woman and a bunch of Jamaicans got one all the way in and when it came up it was like 8 feet around and they just cut the line and it’s slowly swam off even at five years old I still remember beautiful and thank you for your videos Jonathan the ICON‼️®™️
