Synopsis : " Blue Planet " is the first nature documentary ever to expose the marine world in all its aspects.
The ocean, a world that covers 70% of the Earth's surface, has been unknown for a long time. But through this documentary, you can see coral fighting, clown shrimp dragging starfish walking... After all, the nature hidden in the deep sea is as mysterious, magnificent and lovely as it is.
The beginning of the first episode is like this - the clear sea water is magnificent, how can it be such a beautiful word?
Such a charming sea deserves to have all kinds of spiritual creatures.
Dolphins swim through crystal clear waters:
The humpback whale opened its mouth of the abyss and swallowed nearly a ton of krill:
The clever pig-toothed fish uses tools cleverly, and keeps hitting the stones in order to open the clams:
Deeper in the sea, at a depth of 200 meters in the Pacific Ocean, this place is called the "Dusk Zone". The strange-shaped marine creatures living here, watching a documentary, is like watching a science fiction movie.
The left eye of the "cross-eyed squid" is larger than the right and always looks upwards:
In order to facilitate the eyes to look up, the rear anal fish grows a transparent head:
Continue to dive and come to the "midnight zone" where sunlight cannot penetrate, below 1000 meters underwater. Another dream world.
The animals here mostly communicate with light.
The delicate flower-like sea cucumber:
The tube jellyfish with eternal life that keeps cloning itself:
There are pressure sensors all over the body, and the fangtooth fish can feel any fluctuation in the water:
Follow the submersible down and land on the seabed. There is silt up to 1600 meters thick here, equivalent to half the surface area of the earth:
After a long period of evolution, the single-spined frogfish has grown legs and can walk on the seabed:
Pancake octopuses carefully capture plankton in the sea:
Life still has infinite possibilities in the deep sea.
Down to 5,600 meters below the seabed, the variety of corals is even more abundant than in tropical shallow waters.
Some corals have been around for 4000 years:
The Mariana Trench, the deepest place on earth, is 11 kilometers deep underwater, and there are sea slugs, starfish, sea pigs and other creatures.
They can withstand the same pressure as 50 jumbo jets.
There are even complex creatures like fish.
The ethereal lionfish, the deepest known fish in the world:
Every exploration is upending our perception of the ocean.
What to watch: The ocean, a mysterious and unpredictable place, was not revealed to the public until the emergence of " Blue Planet ". After reading it, you will know that the mystery of the ocean is far more exciting than the place you can see.
It is worth noting that, 16 years after the completion of the shooting of "Blue Planet", the second film of "Blue Planet" started. The filming team spent another 4 years, visited 39 countries, conducted 125 underwater expeditions, and spent more than 6,000 hours of underwater shooting.
I hope this is the most beautiful record of the ocean, not the last tribute.
