Wish he could live for another 50 years, making documentaries for us lol

He reads a script. What’s wrong with you. He didn’t film or write anything

@@nsmcgirt oh shut up let him thank sir David

@@dnwm82 For what ? That’s what I’m asking “. Reading a teleprompter no thanks

Frfr

@@nsmcgirt he is on site while filming ontop of having actual knowledge, he is a zoologist which people tend to forget

He leisurely explored but as far as WORKED. He read a script into a microphone for most of his life 🤷‍♂️

He can read and has a nice speaking voice. Wouldn't call that deserving of a state funeral. Let's just hope he doesn't end up being like Jimmy Saville and appreciate the nice videos about nature that he made. Nothing more, nothing less.

The day he passes, I will take a day off, and then every year I will remember him by watching a nature movie.

He's old it won't be "MANY YEARS" Also God has taken all good people from earth already so what's he doing here

Obviously you people haven't seen his early films when he went out to the far reaches of our world interacting with wildlife and indigenous peoples. You should be ashamed of yourselves. He deserves every homage we can give him.

😂😂😂😂 funny

Right- - thats some really good comedy writing there 😂😂 'That really big creature must be the reason Stephen is missing. Look how buff he became!'

Sam: Hey Max? Did you see that swole ant earlier with 20 corpses smashed all over it like some kind of insane hat & cape costume of horror? Max: Maybe if we just nod & ignore it, it will go away? Assassin Bug: _Drags another ant away like Cannibal Freddie Kruger_ *YES! ANOTHER VICTORY FOR THE MASTER-PLANNER!*

The Jeffrey Dahmer Beetle??? 😂

and i came to talk about it but everyone’s taking about Sir David Attenborough passing 🙄 and he ain’t even gone yet. i had to see what it looks like without all the corpses. Nature is WILD !

Sir David the Ultimate Teacher! 😄

Like someone else we used to know until a short while ago.

E e e yeah- - Learning that they lay hundreds of eggs at a time (this one lays 1500) just adds to my disgust for them. It appears that use of insecticides on the land & eradicating them from pets & farm animals has nearly eliminated ticks from the rural county I live in. I havent seen a single tick on a farm animal in about 15 years. Yuk! Thankfully using insecticides on the crops isnt nearly as intense as it used to be 😝

thanks for that nice comment ramesh

* Sir David (The Title "Sir" is used with the person's first name, not his family name.)

Dam sum where'd you learn that

@@macjack5978 big words make my head hurt

That nature for you

Very large underground wasps? Those are _GROUND HORNETS._ Whoof! I get scared at just the thought of them Theyre more intelligent than we give them credit. They recognize the scent of any human who they see around the house everyday. And they will encounter you out in the field, too, not just near the nest. They also recognize humans visually, too More than once yellow jackets would build a nest above the front porch at the house I grew up in. Being a gardener, my mother insisted we leave the nest alone, "because the wasps are natures pest control." Me, my sister, the postman, & any of our friends came & went uneventfully. But when someone leaving flyers on doors, someone else doing a public survey, or any other new person knocked on our door, they were swarmed immediately. The yellow jackets wouldnt sting them, but they would bounce their bodies off of the person. They ran off every stranger they met! Some years there was a red wasp nest above the porch, but it was usually yellow jackets. They sentried the front door, too. But instead of "bouncing" on people, theyd swarm & get in their face And I would _NEVER_ recommend anyone do this. But remember, I was just I kid. I could hold my hand right up to the nest & there was no reaction. Some of the wasps would look at me for a second, but they all just went about their business & ignored me. Ive loved wasps & bees ever since. And Ive learned that the key is if youre not nervous, _THEY_ wont be nervous. But if you are nervous they will sense that & look at you as a potential threat. Again- - I recommend against anyone trying this stunt! But even strange wasp & bee's nests are friendly to me because Im unafraid... I found out in adulthood that my great grandfather was a beekeeper/ bee tamer

@@magnificentmuttley154 that was a cool story, yes I love bees too, bees are so important and of course not sting unless they absolutely have to because they die when they do, i find with most animals it is about your energy and how your projecting, dogs, horses, a horse will try and kill you if they feel you are fearful! husband had a friend who had racehorses ( SOME HATED HIM, he was a bastard .... this one tried killing g him in a stall, i could go in and be with her never a problem, had feral cats that wouldnt go to anyone in years come and lay in my lap..... when I was a teen there was an animal sanctuary, I would go visit it as much as I could, there was a jaguar there his head was MASSIVE he was so beautiful He would come up to the fence and push his head real hard and want me to rub his head, I LOVED THAT ANIMAL, he was so beautiful.... I wished he could be more free than he was, it made me sad to see him there, if I had land I would definarely have bees i watch beekeepers here on uoutube, so cool some of those vids .... thanks for responding

Sir David was knighted, if you could kindly use his title.

@@DukeOfTheBLVD I don't think David would care if someone did or didn't, he is a fellow human, and his name has always been David.

@@richardtucker5938 just simply a thing or respect and admiration

It was wasps that were said to recognise faces.

A Nobel Prize for teaching the world about the world. Yes the world is full of people who are good at their jobs but there are very few who have made the kind of impact Sir David Attenborough has made. The man is a true legend and if you knew anything about him you would know he is far more than just a narrator

*@Rick Gillis* I cant criticize you for seeing David Attenborough as a mere narrator. Explaining him to you gives me the opportunity to learn more about him myself, so here goes. For *@Dunkin Biscuits,* applause to you for being a fellow David A. fan 👋! David A. began making nature documentaries of his own in b&w film as far back as the 1950's. KZfaq has a handful of these. I have a weblink below to one where he is in the African Congo. In some of them primate expert Jane Goodall is his guest. He wrote & narrated hundreds more nature documentaries for the BBC & wrote & narrated scores of one-time PBS specials & PBS mini-series throughout the 70's, the 80's, & 90's Being a kid who grew up watching David in the 70's & 80's, I took him for a degreed ornithologist. His biography on Wikipedia recognizes him as a biologist, & mentions that he holds a Master of Arts degree from Cambridge University. However, the field of study for his arts degree isnt given. So it makes me think that his education in ornithology & in biology is self made. He has, afterall, been active in those fields for 60 years now. Additionally he must have learned even more about ornithology & biology from being in close association with England's finest biologists, zoologists, & nature photographers over the decades, through the BBC In conclusion, although documentary writers & producers have handed David more than one script to read, being the authority he is in Natural Science, he's well qualified to write the script himself. Narrating to hundreds of millions of people makes him personally responsible for what he is reading, so you can be sure he first scrutinizes & proofreads the material himself Thank You for this opportunity to write just a little about David A. I hope it is helpful! 💜💜 David Attenborough in the Congo, early 1960's (b&w) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h7ZzhdJ_0bfNh4U.html

Try David Attenborough and the giant egg that’s a good watch. He really is far more than a narrator and has dedicated and given his whole life to teaching us all about the world. He narrates now but in his younger years he explored everywhere himself as well as the narrating. He would venture deep into the jungle for example to be with the animals that he is filming, at a time when the world had no internet and very little was known about the rest of the world and the wildlife within it until David Attenborough introduced them all to us. He is the voice of nature and the world has gained so much from him

@@DunkinBiscuits The only world shaking advance he has ever made was when a research vessel "Boaty McBoatface" was changed to the Davey Attenborough...He will forever be remembered fondly as Boaty over here in Canada

@@rickgillis1613 ah well it’s your loss dude, although I guarantee if he was from Canada you would all think very differently of him. Make fun if you want but the man has done nothing but good in his life and he has devoted his life to showing us all the world. Have a nice day

so hornets or wasps instead of a guarding dog? :D They at least feed and walk themselves :D

I discovered that as well.If they get too close to the house though,I hose the nest down at night.I don't mind being neighbours - just not friends.

Very interesting

Me and my brother found a nest before he thought it would be a good idea to hit it with a stick we both went running lol they never caught us. Feel for anyone else around at the time llooll. Nice story from u btw

*@RICK NAUGHTY* Thank You for contributing, Rick 💜. Yeah, although my big sis was everymuch the critter lover I was, I wouldve been the critter-catching nightmare little brother in the life of any other sister. I was constantly bringing home birds, snakes, lizards, crawfish, turtles, tarantulas- - anything I could get my hands on. Its what we had in common, among several reasons we got along so well, despite the fact that I was a real brat until about 12 or 13. Ann's favorite pets were a cottontail named Little Fella, our grandfathers squirrels, & the teddybear hamster & mice she always had until moving out at 17 Looking back now I dont know how Mom coped with my critter-getter ways. Because even though shes always loved dogs, cats, & farm animals, she couldnt stand mice, rats, or reptiles. And she hated it most of all when I captured a fully grown female brown tarantula & made friends with it. I was 12 by then, so to her credit she trusted me with it. Emphasis on _FEMALE._ The males are nasty. Unless he's known you since hatching, theres no befriending a male brown tarantula

Lmdao leather face for bugs for sure

His brother is in Jurassic Park

Thanks for the correction

I suppose that's why they're not called Resurrection bug

I imagine it might be a species specific scenario

It would have to either a giant human or a human with the strength of Superman
