These guys are stranger than I previously thought.

I think it is cool the way they described how they start out within
the eggs with a shell like a snail has, then shed it before birth.

And their bodies move poisons and toxins and even tiny critters out
to their spindly tips...

Not tasty!

Who knew that people have studied these Nudibrank (sp?) to that
extent.

I suspect they have a lot of fun doing this work, perhaps as much
fun as

some of us have in our careers!

I don't know how fun it is exactly. Filming wild life in its
natural habitat is hard work. Nudibranchs are not uncommon, but
filming them when they are living the various aspects of their
lives takes many hours and many tanks of air. I'm sure they feel
accomplishment however. That counts for a lot.

Maybe part of the sea creatures don't get cancer research thingy.

10 minutes well spent getting an inkling of life in the oceans...

Thanks to the researchers, the commentator, and their sponsors.

Fantastic video (thanks for the link). The amount of research and
writing that must have gone into it is incredible. Really puts the
turn-on-the-camera-and-record-every-boring-second videos to shame.

He has 2.8M well-deserved subscribers - why haven't heard of him before?

Love them (seen them while snorkeling and diving too). Thanks for
the link.

We also like snorkeling at Cabbage Tree Bay in Manly,
https://goo.gl/maps/9xMofk3nTamHDECA8>.

Lots of interesting creatures there, but for me the highlight is
in the winter, when we get Australian Giant Cuttlefish, which are
brilliant to watch. Not only does their skin change colour - in
waves, patterns, or to match the foliage, but the skin texture
changes too - lumps or ridges appear and disappear to match the
kelp as they float past different species. I've even watched two
in a mating dance, trying to impress each other all the colours on
display. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sepia_apama

With all the crap our own species puts itself through, I almost
think my life would be better as a sea slug or nudibranch.
