Dive into an ocean photographer's world | Thomas Peschak
Somersaulting manta rays, dashing dolphins, swarming schools of fish and munching sharks inhabit a world beneath the ocean's surface that few get a chance to see. Conservation photographer Thomas Peschak visits incredible seascapes around the world, and his photos reveal these hidden ecosystems. "You can't love something and become a champion for it if you don't know it exists," he says. Join Peschak in a new, immersive TED Talk format as he shares his stunning work and his dream for a future of respectful coexistence with the ocean.

Now this is different. Instead of an audience, someone actually tells you about their living by being surrounded by it. Nice.

This is the best I've seen from TED in a while.
agreed
When the bar is so low with all the SJW videos, it's not hard to make a great one.
+Jon fritsch true, but I found this ridiculously engaging, surprised me. Maybe it was just unexpected due to this channel's recent decline.
+Christopher Stewart yeah, this one is really well produced and the talk is great and really passionate.
+Christopher Stewart set sadly to really low standards due to social justice garbage
Nature is fucking awesome
This video style is great! I'm fine with the regular TED talks, but please make more like this.
this one was beautiful.. he's wise and truly humble in his words and actions.. I want to be his friend.. he's inspiring me to be a better person - a human.. I bless him for the ripples he is creating..
People with a passion this strong in their work is awing. They must live such fulfilled lives, I'm grateful we have people like him, his images are amazing
Now this is the kind of content I signed up to TED to see. Beautiful.
I've always wanted to be an oceanographer so when I'm older I'm going to learn how to scuba dive and use the underwater camera and I want to go places like Bahamas and Hawaii and take cool pictures of sharks!I also want to see at least one megalodon bone / tooth in my lifetime.
Definitely the most intriguing TED video i've seen! What an inspirational journey Thomas has taken me on! Thank you!
8:05 I am crying, the whale looks so content while being patted :')
Wow, simply wow !! Respect to this man for all his work and showing the world how beautiful our planet is and how important it is to save our Mother Earth. Thank You Sir :)
One of the first things I wanted to be as a child was a underwater photographer. I have no idea why. I don't remember ever seeing any inspiring video or photos but I just remember feeling it. So very cool to see the insights of what its like. Very beautiful.
I truly admire people who found and also pursuit their passion (Y)
Amazing. We ALL need to learn and love this beautiful earth we share.

THIS IS AMAZING.
Thank you, Thomas. I too have dived with Mantas and sharks etc. but nothing compared to what you've shown us. Your images are amazing. I wish you could visit Australia where ill-advised governments are making policies that are not friendly to our greatest natural treasure, the Great Barrier Reef. I'm positive your insightful eye could change hearts and minds
Great Underwater Photographer ! Inspiring me !
Beautiful...
Great career talk! I feel compelled to campaign for the ocean.

I came to watch this video after he came to my university NTU to give a National Geog talk. I am really inspired by his talk though I am majoring in chemistry;(
awesome video
great person
You should let us dive into it in 1080p. Srsly, why isnt that a thing on TED? Great Talk btw
what amazing😍😍😍😍😍
One word "beauty"
that was great
Wow 😍
Thomas reminds me of Robert Capa, in the way he approaches to the subjects he wants to photograph.
to my love of Sea Shepherd
Super cool
I am 100% with you Dude !! COEXISTING with Nature, not decimating it, if we help them thrive, than we will thrive, and sometimes that means hands off, and sometimes they need help, if we as a people of Earth, let any part of this Beautiful World die, come on, a piece of us dies with it, it's up to us, who's with me !? Peace
Nice video!
wow!
this is literally my dream job
Very few people know about Bassas da India, except those of us who used to peruse the CIA World Factbook before Wikipedia took off. Bassas da India was the least populated entry on their list of "countries" or whatever they called them. This is also how I discovered gems like Vatican City and Tuvalu.
This guy should write a book
Book with the photographies.
I wish you added english captions. please
WoW
it's best!
Wow
amazing ,really i like it ,What does the sentence mean? that lie* hidden beneath the ocean's surface. or you want to say that lay
I wanna know how he got into it/changed career. Im trying to get into it and finding hard also would be cool to know what camera he uses
8:03 D'awww.
How can anyone give this a thumbs down??? SMH...
Is that a Filipino badjao pictured near the end? Lovely...
Anyone know the music in the back?
can you guys imagine there is more than 90% of the oceans that remain unexplored
I want to do this but im terrified of the ocean
2:29 how!!! These creatures are so deadly
+haddad buk My first thought as well, but these don't appear to be either Box or Irukandji jellyfish so other than potentially having a painful sting there is no danger (unless allergic).
+Simon Milne They do look similar to Irukandji though.
+Simon Milne "Some species of box jellyfish produce extremely potent venom: Chironex fleckeri, Carukia barnesi and Malo kingi. Stings from these and a few other species in the class are extremely painful and can be fatal to humans." ?
+haddad buk nice profile picture
+haddad buk 99% of his body is protected by 5mm of neoprene :)
😊
9:12 Is that you, Batman bin Suparman?
Here because of National Geographic! 🍻🍻
Bro we gotta do something to save nature
But, wouldn't that interaction with the whales (specifically petting them) be a violation of the MMPA?
Anyone know of jobs or careers that let you travel all over the world, even remote places. Where you go somewhere, study the land, the environment, the animals, and the people too, like their culture or religion. I really have a passion to explore Earth's greatest phenomenons. I guess I want to be some sort of explorer. Any advice, like what education to receive, or companies that offer something like this, or even military experience or pilot training or whatever? I want to explore, I want to know. Please and thank you! ☺️
that was hot
A different style of presentation. I could get used to it.
Is this a recent Ted video that ISN'T about SJW bullshit? I can't believe my eyes! Keep these up please.
