The Fish with Incredible Shooting Aim | Planet Earth III Behind the Scenes | BBC Earth

Fish spitting at cameraman be like "did you just call me shy? Prrrttt"

Honestly, the dedication to film a small fish is really amazing. Thanks for bringing it to us, and the shot in the eye was the highlight.

Super interesting how they knew to go for the human eyes.

So much patience and hardwork by the team and the fish... The camera shot of half above & half underwater is awesome... This fish is really a silent predator...thanks to BBC EARTH

I can confirm that these fishs are amazing. I live in the Eastern Asian part of the world, you can buy archerfish at the local fish street here. They live in brackish water (not salt, not fresh, in between) and I had a 80 gallon tank setup. I had 3 archerfishs living with some Sliver Moonys and Spotted Scat. I couldn't really get crickets to feed them because the top of my tank wasn't fully sealed, but I could replicate their natural environment the best I could and put branches above the water and gave them hiding spots with some fake roots under water. The fun part was, I would put dried shrimps on drifferent locations on the branches and just watch the archerfish takes aim at the target and shoot them down. Some archerfish are actually capable of jumping out of the water to catch a meal too if its close enough to the surface.

This footage is worth all the patience, hard work, and pain!

This really captures what it was like for us to film the Archer fish for Planet Earth 3. Very proud to have filmed the underwater for this sequence.

The footage is insanely clean. Well done, the patience is amazing for these type of crews.

Absolutely gorgeous

Amazing footage!! Kudos to the crews for working hard on getting these!!

It is nice to see the people behind these amazing shots. Give them a chance to some notoriety among the viewers

We always appreciate how beautiful and awe inspiring the filming is from BBC, but these videos show us how difficult it can be to obtain. Thank you for your fantastic work! 😊❤

Spitting fish is my kind of fish

Awesome documentaries! Hope you guys never stop making these!

The shape & color of a fish that looks ordinary but becomes extraordinary when it can search for prey in an unusual way.

Never knew these fish exist. Amazing.

love this "behind the scene" kind of documentary. props to the team!

This is really amazing how can fish see through water surface precisely! Evolution is fantastic! 👍

That's amazing. The BBC crew should at least interview one archer fish to know how they developed their shooting skills

I really appreciate the filming crew's work, it's an amazing educational and conservation service to humanity.
