FunTranscript
00:00Most of the cities are chaotic.
00:03Think about it.
00:04Neighbors are fighting each other,
00:06but there are also people helping each other,
00:08especially when it's night time.
00:10They are not far away from the nature docu-series
00:14that we will start tonight.
00:16Alien Abyss Allies and Adversaries.
00:20In the depths of the ocean,
00:21destroyed by Team Katangawan.
00:31Invisible shrimp with a fish bodyguard.
00:42Invisible animals living in the body of friends.
00:56One of the causes of flooding and landslides
00:58are landslides in our forests.
01:01Even in the ocean,
01:02the problem is the destruction of plants and animals.
01:05The question is,
01:06who will be the one to blame for the landslides?
01:09This is the story of Amazing Number 3,
01:11Desert Under the Sea.
01:17For centuries, we have been imagining,
01:19what if there are aliens on other planets?
01:24And because we need water to live,
01:26is there a sea in the moon?
01:30Or a river on Mars?
01:32And Jupiter's icy moon?
01:36To this day,
01:37people are still discovering nothing,
01:40except on our planet,
01:42where there are oceans.
01:46They are being invaded by monsters
01:48that you can imagine from other worlds.
01:51There are funny animals that look weird.
01:54The trip to life is different,
01:56and the ship is on a different level.
01:58Let's get to know them,
02:00here in Alien Abyss.
02:04The ocean.
02:06It's vast and mysterious.
02:10And to fully understand it,
02:12you need to leave the ship
02:15and dive into the ocean.
02:17But don't be surprised
02:19if you end up in a different world.
02:22Take a good look.
02:27This is not a plant.
02:30This is not a rock.
02:34This is not a dead animal.
02:37This is not a human.
02:40This is not a human.
02:43This is not a human.
02:45This is not a dead animal.
02:48But this one is dangerous.
02:51Under the ocean,
02:53being weird is not enough to survive.
02:57You also need a friend,
02:59a companion,
03:01or a special someone.
03:04Teamwork is very important here.
03:07The weirder the ship is,
03:09the more effective it is.
03:11Your old enemy
03:14is now your friend.
03:23What do you think when you hear the word Alien Invasion?
03:28Is it this one?
03:32Or this one?
03:36Or maybe this one?
03:43You probably didn't think of
03:45the small and cute creature
03:47that was just raised by a golf ball.
03:49It's so cute.
03:54No, it's not.
03:58Let's start the story
04:00in the sunny California.
04:02These people have no idea
04:04that there is a creature lurking in the ocean.
04:08These are the Seagulls.
04:13They are all greedy.
04:17Because of their taste,
04:19the ocean floor turned into a desert.
04:23But this was a different place back then.
04:3015 years ago,
04:32the kelp forest in the ocean was flooded.
04:35They are the OGs of California's waterways.
04:43The kelp forest helps
04:45to clean up the toxic carbon in the atmosphere.
04:50It is also home to various marine animals.
04:54Back then, this paradise was full of life.
04:58Until the sea urchins tasted
05:01and ate the kelp leaves.
05:04Fortunately, there were sea stars
05:06that ate the sea urchins.
05:09The problem was,
05:10when the sea water became hot,
05:12the sea stars died.
05:17As a result,
05:18the sea urchins population grew.
05:23The kelp were paralyzed.
05:26They had no competition
05:28against the sea urchins.
05:30The sea urchins wiped out
05:32the entire kelp forest.
05:41They ruled this territory.
05:45No one could stop their taste.
05:49Oh, there's more.
05:52There is a place where
05:54the sea urchins found their rightful place.
06:00This is the territory of the sea otter.
06:06They are ferocious sea hunters.
06:08They guard the kelp forest.
06:10Their favorite snack is the sea urchin.
06:15The sea urchins catch them
06:17without any hesitation.
06:23They don't care about the shells.
06:29The sea urchins bite the spines
06:31of the sea otters.
06:34They also eat the sea urchins.
06:36Oh, there's more.
06:40In one day,
06:411,000 sea urchins
06:43are eaten by one sea otter.
06:49This is their job
06:51to control the population of the sea urchins.
06:56Meanwhile,
06:57the sea otters
06:58can breathe the taste of the sea urchins
07:00and return the vast kelp forest.
07:07Where there are sea otters,
07:09there is a kelp forest
07:10and there is a settlement
07:11under the ocean.
07:16That's how life is here.
07:18It's complicated,
07:19but it's a good thing.
07:21Sometimes,
07:22there are unexpected help
07:24from different people.
07:30You will meet a true friend
07:32if you don't expect
07:34to be left behind
07:36in times of need.
07:38Under the ocean,
07:39there are people
07:40who are considered BFFs.
07:42To be specific,
07:43Best Friends With Benefits.
07:45Here are some of them
07:46in Amazing Number 2.
07:48A housemate
07:49who is also a bodyguard.
07:52Under the ocean,
07:53most relationships
07:54are complicated.
07:56But there are good and bad sides
07:57to friendship.
07:59Like the relationship
08:00between a snapping shrimp
08:01and its neighbor,
08:02Gobi.
08:03Shrimps like to snag.
08:07In the afternoon,
08:08it snags
08:09and cleans the entrance
08:10of its cage.
08:15That's all
08:16it cares about
08:17in the afternoon.
08:21Sometimes,
08:22it picks up food
08:23from the sand.
08:26While its neighbor,
08:27Gobi,
08:28is just watching.
08:33But here's the twist.
08:35Gobi is actually
08:36its personal bodyguard.
08:38Oh no!
08:40The shrimp has a problem.
08:45It can barely see
08:46and can't detect
08:47the danger.
08:50Like this.
08:57It can't be helped
08:58that its tail is so strong
09:00if it doesn't know
09:01when to hide.
09:04And that's where
09:05Gobi's role comes in.
09:08In Gobi's big eyes,
09:09it can see
09:10if an enemy is coming.
09:13While it's working,
09:16the shrimp's antenna
09:17is attached
09:18to Gobi's body.
09:21And if there's a danger
09:22around it,
09:24boom!
09:26As a payment,
09:27Gobi is staying
09:28at the shrimp's house.
09:31This setup
09:32is approved by the shrimp.
09:35Of course,
09:36will you refuse
09:37the request
09:38of a friend
09:39who's in your life?
09:42I'm sure
09:43you're familiar
09:44with toxic relationships
09:46under the sea.
09:47That's normal.
09:49Here's an example.
09:51These are sea anemones.
09:54They're different
09:55from the anemones
09:56in the wild.
09:58But don't be fooled
09:59by their beauty.
10:01The truth is
10:02they can kill.
10:06Like their distant relative,
10:08the jellyfish.
10:15Armed with stings
10:16in their tentacles,
10:18the jellyfish
10:19poison their victims
10:23until they're paralyzed.
10:26The anemone
10:27doesn't waste time.
10:29It consumes
10:30its prey alive.
10:33That's why
10:34everyone should be careful.
10:40But it looks like
10:41the jellyfish
10:42didn't receive the memo.
10:45The anemone
10:46is still alive.
10:47Here's the memo.
10:49Just wait.
10:50Something will happen
10:51anytime.
10:55Wait,
10:56why doesn't the anemone
10:57notice the jellyfish?
10:59The reason?
11:00They've been BFF
11:01for a long time.
11:09The jellyfish
11:10spread out
11:11in the shallow
11:12and warm seas
11:13of the world.
11:15And they're partners
11:16in crime
11:17of the anemone.
11:19This is how it works.
11:21The clownfish
11:22lay eggs
11:23in the corals
11:24of the anemone's neighborhood.
11:28The eggs are safe
11:29in the surrounding
11:30of the robbers.
11:32They're afraid
11:33of the tentacles
11:34of the anemones.
11:36After a while,
11:37the clownfish
11:38immediately leaves.
11:42Because of the solo flight
11:43that he'll put
11:44in danger.
11:48Someone wants
11:49to eat him.
11:55To be saved,
11:56he needs
11:57an octopus.
12:01To the rescue,
12:02the anemone.
12:06The clownfish
12:07doesn't taste
12:08of anemone.
12:09It's immune to steam.
12:13That's why it's okay
12:14to accompany him here.
12:15He's safe
12:16from any predator.
12:21But of course,
12:22the fish also
12:23uses favor.
12:25When he grows up,
12:26he'll protect
12:27the anemone
12:28from the big fish
12:29that wants to eat him.
12:34Sometimes,
12:35he acts as a garbageman
12:36and sometimes,
12:37as a food delivery rider.
12:41If there's no clownfish,
12:42the anemone
12:43will die.
12:46Because of the help,
12:47they both live.
12:52That's the true friendship.
12:56But there's also
12:57a loner.
13:00He's shy
13:01and doesn't want
13:02to get involved.
13:03It's really hard
13:04to find a friend
13:05who can rely
13:06on everything.
13:09Let's do a quick recap
13:10of the amazing stories
13:11that we watched earlier.
13:17In today's hard times,
13:18not all people
13:19have the ability
13:20to have their own house.
13:23That's why some
13:24live with their parents,
13:25siblings,
13:26or friends.
13:27Did you know that
13:28the same thing
13:29happens under the sea?
13:31Let's get to know
13:32in the amazing story
13:33number one,
13:34the borders
13:36of Kuya.
13:42Like we said,
13:43anemones are deadly.
13:48Let's zoom in.
13:53A little more.
13:58Did you see that?
14:00The anemone
14:01swallowed the so-called
14:02pearlfish.
14:04They look like
14:05eels or fish.
14:07Oh no,
14:08what happened to you?
14:09Oh no,
14:10what happened to you?
14:12They live in
14:13the
14:14canine.
14:16Oh no,
14:17they don't have
14:18any enemies.
14:20They can easily
14:21be victimized
14:22by weirdos
14:23and alien-like predators.
14:26Desperate,
14:27they need
14:28shelter.
14:32Maybe they can
14:33be found
14:34in the sea cucumber.
14:40Don't be so
14:41choosy, okay?
14:43Even though they're big,
14:44sea cucumbers
14:45have no seeds.
14:46They are considered
14:47walking colon,
14:49or the one
14:50that walks.
14:58Sea cucumbers
14:59have a simple life.
15:03It's like rubber
15:04that wraps
15:05around their long
15:06and spongy bodies.
15:09They also have
15:10holes on their
15:11heads.
15:16At the top,
15:17their feet
15:18spread mud,
15:20small animals,
15:22and other garbage
15:23in the sea.
15:26At the other hole,
15:31it's just sand.
15:35According to scientists,
15:36the weight
15:37of the sand
15:38that sea cucumbers
15:39release
15:40in one area
15:41every year
15:42is equal
15:43to the weight
15:44of five Eiffel Towers.
15:46They're the ones
15:47who said that.
15:51But that's not all.
15:53Sea cucumbers
15:54have another talent.
15:56A basic talent.
15:58The sand
15:59that comes out
16:00of it has
16:01calcium carbonate.
16:03Do you know
16:04how important it is?
16:06It lowers
16:07the acidity
16:08of the water
16:09around it
16:10and helps
16:11the coral
16:12to swim.
16:15In other words,
16:16their contribution
16:17to the coral reefs
16:18is huge.
16:20They're our friends.
16:22Oops.
16:25They're so kind
16:26that they allow
16:27them to be
16:28a pet of pearlfish.
16:33It's a big help
16:34to a small fish.
16:36It's safe
16:37because most
16:38predators avoid
16:39sea cucumbers.
16:41They're here
16:42because if they
16:43get stuck
16:44under the sea,
16:45the pearlfish
16:46will be with
16:47the sea cucumber.
16:51The food is free
16:52and the lodging
16:53is free.
16:54What a great vacation!
16:58Take note,
16:59no one is waiting
17:00for a replacement.
17:01The sea cucumber
17:02is so kind.
17:04.
17:05.
