Blobfish don't look like that. Blobfish only look like that when they're brought to the surface and destroyed by the air pressure change. I already knew that quite a few of your videos get stuff wrong, particularly your videos about weight science where you demand weight loss despite that not at all being evidence-based practice, but come on. The pressure difference of the ocean and land is such an important aspect of the topic of this video that you dedicated a whole section of this video to it. And yet you went through the entire animation process with likely multiple quality assurance checks and never realized you animated a pressure-killed fish swimming alive and happy in its natural, correctly-pressured environment

A lot of aquatic animals like amphibian larvae, sharks, lamprey, and certian bony fish lack an operculum. I'd take a shot and guess that operculums aren't as crucial for underwater breathing if
A: the animal is only aquatic temporarily or can substitute air as well, B: they use some other motion to move water through the gills (ram breathing in sharks for instance, or C: they can absorb some oxygen through their skin.

The only thing my that through me off about this video is the depiction of the blob fish. Bc I thought the blob fish looks like, what we typically see, bc of it being out of its element. I thought they looked like regular fish when they are in their own element.

Ah come on! Again the misinformation about the blobfish is being spread. It is extremely unfair to give it the name blobfish as it looks like a blob only on the surface. At its natural habitat deep down the ocean, it looks like a normal fish!

In addition to gills, fish like gouramis and bettas also have an organ called a labyrinth that functions like a lung. I don't know if that's what the lungfish has but labyrinths weren't mentioned by name in the video

If humans have gills they would also colonize the oceans and fight for territory. They would also build humongous infrastructures that would extract everything that is valuable in the waters until it's all depleted.

Blobfish do not look like that underwater. They only look like, well, blobs when they are brought to surface as their bodies are adapted for the high pressures of deep seas.

why fish haven't finished oxygen from ocean if they breathe more and faster than humans why hasn't anyone made artifical gills so you don't have to carry oxygen tanks underwater

Considering the fact that 21% of air is oxygen but there is only a small amount of oxygen in water, we don't need to be more effective at getting oxygen but fishes have to be

I tried to inhale as much air as I could because of the video It's amazing to learn about Eliud Kipchoge's lung capacity, because he has small chest circumference

Fish might be better at breathing for now, but lets see how well they do when global ocean temperatures rise and there is less oxygen dissolved in the water.

And then there is Whales (including dolphins and such) that despite living in water all their lives, have lungs and can only breathe air! counterintuitive I know!

Sir my name is Chirag M Suvarna I have a theory why do we dream, i call this ENCD theory according to this we dream to increase neural connectivity

I misread the thumbnail and was confused because everything started to make sense, then I realized it's How do gills work and not How do girls work

I read that title totally wrong. Thought it said How do girls work. If you fancy making a video on that it'd be much appreciated.
