welcome everyone I'm in Gatlinburg
0:06
Tennessee today and I'm at the Aquarium
0:09
of the Smokies and believe it or not
0:11
this is actually owned by the Ripley
0:13
Corporation you've probably heard of
0:19
them just because it Bears the name
0:19
Ripley don't think that all they have
0:21
inside are weird unusual Oddities in
0:23
fact if you ask anyone who's been here
0:25
they will tell you that this is one of
0:27
the most highly regarded aquariums
0:29
anywhere
0:30
but I am going to focus on the strange
0:32
and unusual because let's be honest like
0:34
Lydia Deets from Beetle Juice I myself
0:37
am strange and unusual specifically for
0:41
the sake of this video I'm going to
0:42
focus on some of my personal favorite
0:44
things inside some of the weird some of
0:47
the I want to show you some of my
0:49
favorite unusually bizarre wonderful
0:54
aquarium things join me shall you
1:02
you want to
1:28
see don't look
1:28
now but there's per
1:38
P piranha are dangerous to humans only
1:38
when food is scarce or they're crowded
1:41
in small
1:43
pools isn't that what this is a small
1:47
pool of piran
2:22
look at that little guy right there he's
2:22
not doing a lot of
2:24
skipping but he sure is Hamming it up
2:26
for the camera I see you there Hamming
2:29
it
3:02
take a look at this these are poison
3:02
dart frogs so dangerous that the natives
3:06
in South America used to actually take
3:08
the tips of their darts and rub it on
3:11
their
3:13
skin two fingers gently cut them on the
3:16
top in between the flower shade just
3:18
gently rub them the reason you would
3:20
kill them if you poke them not just
3:22
because you would be poking C through
3:23
their body since they're 95% water it's
3:25
because you're poking a hole through
3:26
their stomach they just have a stomach
3:27
and a reproductive system they have no
3:28
heart they have no brain they have no
3:30
eyes they only have a stomach and a
3:32
reproductive system so basically they're
3:33
exactly like
3:37
men a lot of us have actually eaten
3:40
flounder but do you know what a flounder
3:42
actually really looks
3:44
like it actually can disguise itself
3:47
along the floor of the sea can you see
3:50
the
3:51
flounder do you see where the flounder
3:54
is can you find the flounder
4:04
some of my personal favorite things here
4:04
are these sea dragons that a lot of
4:05
people refer to as sea horses but look a
4:08
little bit closer these are very
4:11
peculiar and interesting
4:47
The Master of Disguise the weedy
4:47
scorpion fish
