Every once in a while, the combination of wind and tidal flow will create large crashing waves in the mouth of the inlet. The ospreys have to time their dives between the breakers, and if they manage to latch onto a large fish, they don’t always get out of... the water immediately. Instead, they float on the surface of the water with their wings outstretched like outriggers on a boat, waiting for the perfect time to gain lift. For this bird, the timing was all wrong because a large rolling wall of white water was quickly approaching from behind. Ospreys don’t get rolled in waves very often, but when they are hunting in the Atlantic Ocean, it does happen.show more

Oh, no! He got tossed about quite a bit! And flew right out!

I like the way he spread his tail feathers out and up before the wave swept in. You took a great video here! I really enjoyed it.

Hunting in the ocean is when you are both a fisherman and a surfer against your will.

His instincts to enter the water silently with no splashes are amazing, that is fundamental for Jaguars in the wild since they do a large part of their hunting in the water.

A group of friends were on their boat fishing for the day. They started fishing on one end of the lake and everything was fine until they started getting less fish. Their equipment was showing fish on another end of the lake. The guys go to the other end and start fishing, but then their engine on the boat started stalling and they were stranded in the water. To make matters worst, a man in a bigger and stronger boat was upset they were fishing there. He started to create a wake that almost sunk their boat when he got within 10 feet of them. I always thought if another boat was having problems that you were required to help them, but shouldn’t he be charged for trying to sink them?

A boat was cruising through the water when all of a sudden they clip the fin of a whale with their motor, the whale can be seen thrashing wildly. The boat almost capsizes and a passenger falls into the water next to the whale. Whenever whales are in the water nearby, aren’t boaters supposed to shut their motors off?

I JUST DON’T KNOW Y’all this is a mind bender! Captured over the Pacific Ocean about 40 Meters from Shore in Northern California. This crazy looking craft, the size of a go-cart… descends down to the surface of the water… They quickly open the camera on the phone and get a very quick recording… It’s either thirsty… or it’s taking water somewhere for someone who is hidden!! This is what they captured…

Trump on LA: "They lost 25,000 houses to fires because they didn't have the water come down from the Pacific Northwest. They have a lot of water but they send it out into Pacific to protect a little tiny fish which did very badly when it didn't have any water, by the way."

Did you know that a slave ship carrying hundreds of slaves from Africa to the Caribbean decide to dump their cargo in the ocean so they could collect the insurance? They were running out of food and water so the captain decide to throw slaves over board. So they could save water and food. There were never charged for the murder, but they got the insurance for killing their slaves.. the name of the slave ship the Zong in 1781 owned by the British. it was a massacre.

Paul: I see these homes burning, if they just had a generator and a hose, you start sucking the water out of the The Pacific Ocean. Why don't they take the ocean water and put it in cisterns have a bunch of water ready when a wildfire shows up? Once again, bad local government.

Trump: But they have no water artificially. They reroute it because they want to save— There's a fish— Delta smelt. By the way, the Delta smelt is doing extremely badly.. they think they have a fish and their way of saving the fish is not to give it water.

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump LAMBASTED Gavin Newsom and LA Mayor Bass for their handling of the Pacific Palisades fire Newsom and Bass should be CRIMINALLY investigated for this. "There's something wrong with these people, something REALLY wrong." "It's going to be YEARS before they are allowed to re-build their house, and Karen Bass is grossly incompetent. And Newsom... this is a VERY incompetent guy." "He didn't allow the water to come from the pacific northwest. They had TREMENDOUS amounts of water in California, people don't know. They send the water out to the Pacific Ocean. I demanded that to be opened. If you had that open before the fires, you wouldn't have had the fire because all the sprinklers would've worked in the houses. They had no water in the fire hydrants!"

The proboscis monkey is one of the most unique primates in the animal kingdom, easily recognized by its large nose and strong connection to riverine forests. Found mostly around water, these monkeys are surprisingly skilled swimmers, often leaping from trees into rivers to escape predators or move between areas. But the waters they rely on can also be their greatest danger. Crocodiles are silent and patient predators, perfectly adapted to ambush anything that comes within reach. With powerful jaws and lightning-fast reflexes, they wait just beneath the surface for the perfect moment to strike. In this video, that moment comes with devastating precision. As the proboscis monkey attempts to leap from a tree into the water, it falls directly into the path of a waiting crocodile. In an instant, the predator strikes, turning what should have been an escape into a fatal mistake. It’s a chilling reminder that in the wild, survival often depends on timing—and sometimes, one wrong move is all it takes.

This man went to McDonald’s trying to get a “pup cup,” he claims he comes here often and gets them, however this time, the manager was there and told him they don’t do pup cups nor are they supposed to. He’s literally mad because they aren’t making him an item they don’t have on their menu nor do they sell, I doubt they have a button in the register for a side of whipped cream. So who are we siding with? Was the manager just following procedure or was he out of like for not being served an other they don’t sell?
