Watching these nature shows and videos have taught me so many different things that are around the world that can harm others but assist with the environment at the very same time.

I just don't understand…none of the people in the bus thought to lower the windows? Or open the back door? I can see the door being jammed, but thirty two windows?

At the end, with the piranha reserve, I remember being younger and seeing Jeremy talk about the people being numb to living so close to constant danger. I remember thinking about how unbelievable that was and rewatching this now I'm just thinking that it's the same as us americans with school shootings and yeah. Yeah I understand how everyone just became numb to it

If you've ever kept black pacu or red-bellied pacu, you'd know the kind of frenzy when they feed.

Piranha probably can smell adrenaline and cortisol or the stress hormones. It makes you smell like death.

I wish the show would have continued I. I like Wade, and the honesty of the show. We need more clean,entertaining programming like this. Shows that inspire kids to follow in or similar interests. Thank you for your dedication Jeremy. I love you and your show!

Dolphins are just nasty. Most ppl d.k. they kidnap, rape, and kill, just like humans, for entertainment. They're nasty. They so experience emotion, like humans

This just unlocked some core memories from when I was a kid! Everything's coming back: the intro, the title cards, Jeremy's voice. So great!

Piranha Pool is cool, but Dr. Evil had sharks with laser beams on their heads.
