I think the reason why sea creatures in general are so scary is because we cannot maneuver well in the water. We're pretty much sitting ducks
-
Who needs a horror movie when you have the ocean
-
gets dropped into the middle of the prehistoric ocean "Detecting multiple leviathan class lifeforms in the region."
-
It's fascinating despite how huge animals and sea monsters have came and gone from earth, we get to witness the biggest one of them ever in real time while living in same era as them, blue whales deserve more appreciation
-
The fact that the largest marine animals are harmless filter feeders is a testament to how docile the oceans are nowadays. Up until a few million years ago, enormous macropredators were the top of the food chain.

“So why is this sea more deadly than the others? It’s because there’s not just one predator here, there’s a whole suite of them. There’s frightening Sharks, terrifying sea Reptiles, even the Fish in here you couldn’t imagine them in your worst nightmares, I call this Hell’s Aquarium, it’s so jam packed with killers.” ~ Nigel Marven

That "Swimming with Sea Monsters" show was so amazing. I turned on the TV one day, and it happened to be on and with no context, I was staring at this giant monster fish and thinking: "Did we find a new kind of giant fish?! No wait, it'd be all over the news .." The CGI actually fooled me for a few minutes.
-
Wait, 150 feet deep? That's well within the sunlight zone, which means sunlight likely hit the bottom of the seaway in most areas. This place would have been incredibly diverse, not to mention vibrant with plants and corals. It would have been glorious!
-
That something is "only hunting the slowest of creatures" in an aquatic environment gives me zero reasons to relax about it.
-
Man, that meteor really affected the local monster trout population
-
It's such a relief to find a channel like this that actually has interesting content AND a really good narrator.
-
To think the worlds oceans were so lucrative with devoloping predators, imagine what alien worlds can be like if they exist
-
“Hell’s Aquarium” is a perfect way of describing this ocean and its fauna. I love when people refer to animals or locations in this way.
-
I can confirm that Appalachia is still a terrifying and isolated continent to this day
-
I woke up in the middle of the night with a thirst no ice cold water could quench, a thirst for knowledge. Thank you
-
The reason why the sea is so terrifying because you can barley see ahead of you cause the water is so dark. There's nothing in front of you but there's a chance there is something behind you and the moment you turn around it's too late and the slightly blue water turns red...
-
Sea Monsters is a childhood gem of mine It was the perfect mix of everything, it was dramatic, it was tense, it was educational and of course it had dinosaurs in it What more could a kid want
-
Ah something to listen to while sitting in the kayak… when it’s 1100 at night
-
I find this topic fascinating. To this day the 7 deadliest seas special with Nigel Marven is still one of the best paleo docs I've ever seen.
-
Sea monsters was a GOATED documentary back in the day, Nigel was always a top lad
