When I was a kid my dad's friend had a huge aquarium filled with stuff. We went camping once and he caught a handful of baby eels for his tank. Soon after all his fish started acting funny, dying, etc. It turned out to be from the baby eels. I remember one fish swimming sideways so the guy "put it down" and opened it up to see if there were any obvious reasons. A live baby eel popped out. His fish were eating them and they were eating their way back out. Eels man... Eels.

We actually do know the breeding grounds. If I'm not mistaken they attached a gps to an eel. The sargasso is where they breed and larvae was found there way back in 1920. We also know how they breed because they were breed in captivity with the aid of hormones to sexually mature them and closely studied afterwards. This was done in the 90s

It turns out that eels have a migration rout that takes them to the Saragossa sea. They use the salinity in the water to find this place and this is where they meet. They have found the larva of baby eels and tracked the adults to this location. Meaning, the female will dump the eels and the males comes by to fertilize the eggs….this was discovered a year ago…you’re welcome..

Freud's theories are basically just the more respected precursor to the classic rebuttal "I know you are but what am I?". I bet all his life people were like "Why are you so obsessed with people's baby making parts?" and Freud was like "Well why are you so obsessed with my thoughts on those body parts? Maybe you just think too much about your mom's body, creepo" and everyone back then was so scared of talking about sex at all, much less something THAT weird, that they'd just be like "Woah, woah, alright, sorry I said anything, I'll shut up but just don't say stuff like that about me!". And it worked so well that it became his whole personality.

@@blackgold2589 well, yeah. Thats the weird stuff. We know why it happens to a degree and obviously we know its not paranormal. Its just because the areas winds and oceans are obviously like a giant whirlpool so it causes some weird unpredictable things to happen. In the 1880s when it was first was introduced as a mainstream and well known phenomenon, they didnt have any tools to know any of the features of the land. Even back to when Christopher Columbus was around he had to sail through the triangle. He recounted having seen an intense flame and light crash into the oceans which we think might of been a very coincidental meteor. Also, pretty notably, the triangles north and south magnetic fields line up evenly which causes compasses not to work.

@English person the point of the video is that eels still are largely a mystery, and that exactly how they reproduce still hasn't been documented. they don't know how they are migrating either at such young hatchlings. They just know, that they do actually have balls that develop once they migrate back to the seagarssa ocean, and once they live that specific area, their balls glands dissapear again.. thats why, if you want to find an eel with balls, you have to go to the seagarssa ocean. we don't know how they mate, the habits and behavior of them, their reproductive lifecycles down to a specific, theirs more work to be done to understand the eels.

I'm thinking parent eels mate somewhere close to shore and the eggs, much like the trash in the atlantic, get swept up in ocean currents, end up in the Sargasso, where the eels hatch. This gives explanation to the absurd distance of that 2 way trip and how nobody has seen adult eels in the sargasso
