This is a video from The Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute’s Deep RelaxOcean series of guided relaxation videos, this time focusing on the movement of a deep sea vampire squid.

This is a video of Instagrammer yorkshire.fossils (I prefer the pudding myself) smacking a rock open with a hammer to reveal the perfect ammonite fossil inside.

The video includes some first-person and over-the-shoulder footage as well so you can really pretend like you’re there. Of course they replaced the
This is a timelapse video from Boxlapse featuring a pea plant growing over the course of 34 days. The germination and root growth is cool enough to watch, but the way the plant’s tendrils move around looking for something to grasp is REALLY something. I like how sometimes it even
