Just a few meters below the waves, marine biologist and explorer-photographer David Gruber discovered something amazing — a surprising new range of sea creatures that glow in many colors in the ocean’s dim blue light. Join his journey in search of biofluorescent sharks, seahorses, sea turtles and more, and learn how these light-up creatures could illuminate a new understanding of our own brains.

Really awesome video, best of luck in your research!!!!
glow-in-the-sharks
little green men from outer space just got crazy possible (but yes i said outer space not Mars!). Its very cool there's a shark that glows! i guess most people probably only think of jellyfish and GM goldfish, which is why we need more awesome vids like this to open minds
i got one question for you….
WHAT ARE THOOOOOOOSE!!!
what a wonderful world that we haven't fully discovered yet!
It makes me happy that they're some humans who still care about the environment! This was awesome!
Precisely why we have to readapt to submarine life at least in the shallow depths and with the use of electronics adapt to our current needs.
one helluva TED talk
the fabled glow in the dark sharks mentioned by his eminence riff raff
13:30 mind blown!!!
This is amazing
the eel is real
More of this. THIS is the kind of Ted talks I want to see more of. =)
Steve Zissou found that shark first!
if they can use the florescent and find brain blockage like clots and strokes and tumors that would be helpful!
Those who ascribe to the belief in a Universal mind are well aware that our neurons resemble space. That galaxies are living cells in a living universe makes perfect sense. Our own bodies with our trillion + cells working collectively for the whole suggest the possibility. Where two beams of light intersect, the light is twice as bright, meaning constellations are real, not imaginary. Photoelectric relays act as switches, information is transmitted by laser. What a wonderful place!
armchair hypothesis: the turtle's biofluorescence is algae growing on the carapace.
