Hi there again, this is me Eduardo Rocha the Mariachi man who is playing the guitar in the video. I just want to say that Mr. "Juno" (that is his name) Beluga Whale heard us very clear because the tank is open at the top and also he splashed us pretty gentle !!! Thanks a lot for watching this video.
The Beluga is nodding at them "Yes human, good, very good"
This is how Disney movies start
They can. Whales communicate through sound. There was an incident years ago where people couldn't figure out why all the dolphins in an aquarium died. It was the loud water filters that drove them insane.
The whale just looks so happy that someone would play a song for it :-D
i've been to this aquarium. it's in mystic conneticut. that beluga whale is so smart and cute. every time i go there she comes up to the glass and rubs her head fat against the glass. she also uses her voice to like try to see outside the glass. she's so cute and friendly!
"Tienes los ojos más bonitos del mundo, señorita Beluga."
I dunno why but I find this amazing, the whale is clearly enjoying and appreciating their music
This can make anyone smile
i like how its nodding along like 'yes you are doing very good'
and the whale said: "Man I should learn how to play guitar also..."
I CAN'T LINK THIS VIDEO ON FACEBOOK BECAUSE SOMEONE REPORTED IT AS ABUSIVE WHY WOULD ANYONE DO THAT JUST LOOK AT HIM HE'S HAVING A WHALE OF A TIME
'With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a world where a mariachi band performed for a beluga whale.' - Max Ehrmann
THIS IS TOO ADORABLE!
Whale: "I wanna touch you" *Smushes head against wall* Awwwww man
You can never, ever be sad while watching a mariachi band serenade a Beluga.
No doubt the Mexican music has no boundaries, VIVA MEXICO CABRONES!!!
AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT WANTS TO KNOW WHAT'S THE NAME OF THAT WONDERFUL PIECE THEY'RE PLAYING?!
Mariachi in Connecticut? God bless America.
How in the world would someone come up with the idea of giving a serenade to a Beluga Whale? This is cuteness beyond compare, I absolutely love this video
Awwww! Can the belaga whale actually listen to the music being played? This is such an uplifting and adorable video.
It's a Haitian folk song called Yellow Bird.
Outstanding. "The universal language of music". I love how the Beluga 'bows' at the end to thank his mariachi friends. Either that or he's thinking "come in here...I'd love to play with you.........."
Beluga whale: This is my jam
This makes me cry. I wish so badly that we could communicate with all our earthly brothers and sisters.
I love how the whale nods it's head in approval. It's like: "Yes, this shall do."
The whale is like "Dawh stop it!. You making me blush!"
Why the heck didn't they play Baby Beluga?? ;)
He was ecstatic, and could not stop swaying back and forth to the sounds of his homeland. Manchego was a happy whale once again.
These guys completely understand what music is all about. This is the purest musical performance I have ever seen.
Beluga: hmmm yes yes, delightful *nods*
1:42 "Wait guys! Don't go! :("
This is the most precious thing I've seen in a long time! They are such intelligent creatures and now we can see they also appreciate music!!
I can't even begin to describe how happy this makes me.
I swear to God I will never get tired of this video.
I can't handle when his little face presses against the glass!! So cute :)
A young boy on staff at the aquarium, Hans, befriended Manchego, and soon they became inseparable. Manchego was starting to become happy again, performing tricks for Hans and the visitors at the aquarium. But Hans could tell that Manchego was still a little sad and knew just the thing to cheer him up. The next day, Manchego heard a sound he hadn’t heard in such a long time: a mariachi band.
The Beluga Whale is grateful at the end!!! so cute!!!
I love this!! Big thanks to the band for serenading a whale!
I love the part around 1:38, when the Beluga presses its head against the glass, almost like it's politely bowing back to the guitarist. :D :D
its crazy how long the beluga held its breaath to watch them
OMG I love it!!!
Viva Mexico!!!!! lindo!.
That's either a Beluga whale or an Airbus A380
Awww. The beluga liked it! He/She was bobbing his/her head up and down! That's just too cute. :D
I'm not sure why this exists, but I'm glad it does
Most calming video on youtube.
The Three Amigos making a Beluga Whale Happy. :-)
This song is catchy! :) Also the cute beluga makes me smile!
Que Cute!!!!
AWWWWWWW you can tell she loved being serenaded :)
This is my favourite video on the entire internet ever.
This Beluga needs to be serenaded more often!
Dammit I have watched this like 10x already today!!!! Why is it drawing me in?? Damn you Beluga and Mariachi. You make me want to cry and laugh at the same time
I like to think, that if given the opportunity, the Beluga would be lead vocals with his moans.
I get to see this whale every Saturday :) His name is Juno and he is simply amazing
THIS IS MAKING ME UNBELIEVABLY HAPPY
I love how pleased the whale looks! Such a classy little whale- loving the serenade! :) ((might I also mention the fact that the whale bows back at the end? Priceless. New favorite KZhead clip :) )
This is the cutest thing I have ever seen in my life.
VIVA MEXICO!!!!
Aww that was so cute. I bet the beluga was like "Hey!! I want a cool hat like that!"
El Beluga sayz, "ayeyayayayayayayayayayaya!"
I was very moved by this--seriously I think this was wonderful.
Love how the whale seems to be nodding along to the music haha
This is absolutely as perfect as life could ever get.
Haha he likes it! I love how he was squishing his face against the glass.
Im mexican. And I say...VIVA MÉXICO
I love how he keeps nodding and he's like "keep on going, me gusta."
Being at this wedding brought me one step closer.. Loved this Beluga so much.. She calmed my nerves before a reading......
This is beautiful.Both the music and the whale. :) *sways side to side in time with the music*
That whale looks so happy :)
OMG this is amazing.
This is the balm I needed, something to remind me of how truly beautiful life is. Thank you so much for posting this!
LABOOON!
This is sooooooo beautiful.
Squeeeeee!
THIS MADE ME CRY! BEAUTIFUL!!!!
This is hands down one of my favorite videos on the internet. It never fails to crack me up. If I'm having an awful day, I come here. xD
I adore belugas, so smart :)
Mexico delivers to beluga!
Aww this is the randomest combination but so cute! ♥
Epic cuteness.
I go to that aquarium all the time! Mystic aquarium.
I have been having the crappiest day and this video just made it a little better. I wish everything were this simple :)
I love this video so much it fills up holes in my heart. I want to cry.
This is so sweet and touching!
It's so cute I can't tell if I'm going to cry or laugh!
Just when you'd thought you'd seen it all...
Aww! Super cute! Way to go Mariachi Connecticut! The beluga definitely appreciated the music!
曲に合わせてダンスしているかのようですね。人もイルカも楽しそう！
Tune is Choucoune ("Yellow Bird") - I always play that to my Beluga - they love it.
What's the name of this song?
I think my insides will combust from cuteness if I don't share this video with as many people as possible.
Watching this fills me with a feeling of pure bliss, thank you for sharing!
This is what the movie Juno should be about.
Amazing!! Mariachis rocks!! Viva Mexico!!!
One of my favorite videos of all time, so relaxing.
this is great. had a smile on my face the whole video.
I keep watching this it is so beautiful to see utter appreciation for music by anyone anything with the gift of life and love. Beluga whales can "get jiggy with it"
what i like about a beluga whale is that they always look like they are smiling!
