These videos are always such high quality, and his voice is always so soothing! The perfect thing to watch after feeling stressed, or to fall asleep to!

Another great documentary with outstanding narration 🥰

The thing that fascinates me so much about hydrothermal vents and cold seeps is how much they show that our planet, even far below the surface, is alive in a way and creating life all the time. There is very little footage that is more satisfying to me than a cluster of tube worms extending and contracting their frills. Another amazingly entertaining and educational video. I am really looking forward to Part 3 of this series. Thank you so much for all your hard work to create such high quality content.

for anyone like me who was heartbroken at 12:45 ,,, i read somewhere that the layer that forms is usually not very thick unless they sit there and keep agitating the bubbles, and generally they can scrape the icy layer off, so it's not doom for them, just a weird little experience :')

Cold seeps make me think of extraterrestrial environments capable of sustaining life forms. The possibility of finding life under the frozen surface of Jupiter's moon Europa is the first thing that comes to mind. *yes, the hydrothermal vents here on Earth are also incredibly fascinating. I'm not playing favorites!

I’m not the type to comment things like this normally, but hey it can’t hurt. I’ve recently gone through a tough breakup after moving to sunny South America with my boyfriend, meaning I’m losing a lot of my new life and about to be moving back to our miserable, gloomy little island of a home country, a prospect which terrifies me and in recent times left me feeling down enough that the unthinkable became a possibility. But then, I found you and your channel, and for the first time in so long I’ve felt that warm comfortable feeling in my chest again, every video is a trip to somewhere more peaceful and quiet where I don’t have to think contemplate, fight or question anything. Just peace. So genuinely from the bottom of my heart (and as a fellow Brit), thank you for all that you’ve done here, you’ve helped someone begin to get out of a very dark place.

I adore the fact you can watch each episode individually without having watched the others. You always set up the basics in such an easy way to understand, great job!

I found this channel yesterday and its all ive been watching since! Cant express enough how amazing the production and research for these videos are. And all the footage!! Who knew a place that seems lifeless is so colorful and active!?!

Oh, I've been positively obsessed with your videos about other marine ecosystems (especially the brine pools) so I'm thrilled to watch this one!

It’s so amazing that the animals living at both some of the hottest and coldest environments in the world are so closely related.

Why does this only have 73K views? This level of production quality deserves SO much more.

This might be a small detail for many other people but thank you for removing the high pitched beeping sound from your transition graphics. They always startled me and felt like a jarring contrast to your soothing voice and the music.

Excellent presentation, as ever. Really admire the quality of your productions and your ability to present some complex processes simply and accurately. Outstanding channel Leo 👍

While recovering from several surgeries, these videos were how I kept my sanity. I still come back to your channel often, at the end of a long day to relax and unwind. Thanks for awesome content!

Yet another fantastic view of seafloor habitats! Beautiful footage, great music, and I love the captions on the screen. This series is on par with the best nature documentaries I have ever seen. Please continue your important work!

Amazing video as always Leo! The Tar Lillie's segment especially engrossed me, your editing there was spot on and really encapsulated how incredible the formations are.

Some of the best content on youtube, literally just, some of the best.

Leo, I'm going to keep saying it, you are providing quality documentaries way beyond anything seen elsewhere. Thank you

i keep having severe panic attacks and this channel is one of the few things i can focus on to calm down that doesnt overwhelm me. it helps reminds me that even if i die suddenly, everything dies eventually, and yet life as a whole continues on.
