Should you use facecam and audio for your livestream and videos?

That's what we talk about in this video.

In this tutorial playlist on StorySpotlight it's all about how you can build your youtube

channel, how you can create great live streams and how you can tell your awesome story on

youtube or wherever you want.

In my last video where I explained the basic settings for OBS live streaming and recording.

Check that one out right here.

Game_Guech asked me a question.

He said, can I ask you one question?

Can I go stream or recording without using microphone or headphone?

Is it good or bad?

Now that's a question that comes up very often when you start out fresh.

Should you use facecam?

Should you use your voice on the video.

Now, my answer to this - I have 3 years of experience with live streams and recording

and I tried everything.

I made the whole process myself.

So, what I say to this.

Technically you can stream without a facecam or without audio.

On the long run I would not recommend it.

First of all, start out with whatever feels comfortable for you.

If you're very uncomfortable with audio or very uncomfortable with the facecam.

Don't start with that one.

But only start with what really feels comfortable to you.

Let's talk about live streaming and recording videos because there may be a small difference

in that.

From a live viewer perspective.

They try to connect with you as a streamer.

And it's way easier to connect with you as a streamer when there is audio and it's even

more connection when there is a facecam.

Because then people really feel like they are together with you.

And it was a huge change for me once I started using the facecam.

But I would never go back to streaming without a facecam.

So as I said, on the long run, I really recommend using the facecam.

Now, I started out with just video.

I did a clash of clans live stream with only video in it.

And I chatted with the people and I was actually very surprised when there were two people

watching that livestream.

And I chatted with them in the chat.

And the main reason I noticed then is that the chat was not in sync with the video after

the fact.

And that annoyed me.

And so I started using the microphone.

Now there is things about the microphone.

The quality has to be good.

Because if the microphone is too quite too loud or very noisy and people can't hear you.

It's a horrible experience for the viewers and they switch off immediately.

What you see here is of course my big town hall 10.

But today the stream is not about that town hall.

It's about farming.

So really make sure your audio is on point if you use the microphone.

And I made all those experiences myself.

I had bad audio, I fought with audio that didn't work, that had noise in it and stuff.

I did all that process.

And it's normal.

Don't worry.

Improve step by step.

That's really the main point here.

You have to improve.

Every stream you learn something new.

And you're going to improve.

I made the whole process, the bad audio, trying other microphones, and slowly improved my

audio.

Then one day, when I hit 1000 subscribers, I made a special stream with a face reveal

and that's when I started using the facecam.

There you go.

That's me.

The old guy on the facecam.

It was really a weird feeling at first.

I was used to just focus on the game, not really talking to the camera but just play

the game and talk at that time.

And it was really a change to try to look at the camera and talk to the viewers directly.

And play the game.

It's way more stress to do those things at the same time.

Look at the chat, look at the camera, look at the game.That's way more stress and you

have to get used to it.

So don't worry if you're not perfect at the start.

Also here, you're going to improve over time.

On doing you will improve over time.

Ever after I had the facecam on my livestreams and it's a huge difference.

I mean just watch some videos, some live streams yourself and you will notice that you immediately

connect more to the streamer when they use a facecam than if they don't.

So that certainly the way the evolution goes.

But don't rush it.

Take one step after another.

As I said, I only did facecam after I had reached 1000 subscribers.

The viewers will definitely connect more, the more they see you, the more they feel

you.

Now for video it's basically the same story.

But on video I think it's a little bit easier.

You can do videos with just the video material, just the game without audio, you can even

go without audio, even go without facecam if you have some background music that really

matches what's happening in the game.

And if it's not too boring you can go without.

Specially without facecam.

It's totally possible on video.

So I think you have a little bit more flexibility with video.

That is my opinion.

To go without a facecam.

Because there the content, the video material with nice background music maybe with audio

that works rather for itself.

It works a little bit better.

But in the end, on the long run if you take this serious the connection to your viewers,

to your audience will be bigger and better with audio and facecam.

Also here for video, for recorded videos though, don't rush it.

Take one step after another and try to continuously improve on what you're doing.

Once you start using facecam there is a common question coming up.

Should you frame your facecam or should you have no background and not frame your facecam.

And that also mainly depends on whether you have a green screen or not.

So again don't rush it.

green screens can be from cheap to very expensive.

And with green screens you can blend out your background and so you're basically part of

your overlay without a frame.

I would take this second step.

First it's usually okay to have a frame.

I always switch between with frame and without frame, because it's kind of cool to be in

the frame and show the background.

Or some other background if you have a green screen within the frame.

So that can be cool.

And once you're going like without a frame you can do that as well.

So that really also depends on what your options are.

If you have green screen available or not.

I think both is ok.

It's also ok to go just with a frame.

But then make sure that your background is not messy.

It's cleaned up.

Because I've seen live streams with really messy backgrounds.

And you don't want to be that guy with a really messy room showing up in the live stream.

Make sure it's cleaned up.

Go in a frame totally ok.

Later on when you feel comfortable and later on if you have a green screen it's totally

ok to wipe out the background with the green screen and put something in the background

you like or not have a background at all but the video you're in and go without a frame.

Both of those options really possible.

So to summarize this.

It's all step by step.

Take one step after another and you're going to be fine.

Just learn by doing.

It's really about that.

I had so many mistakes.

Everything that could go wrong went wrong.

Don't worry.

It will be ok.

Just keep doing it.

Keep practicing and you will be fine.

Hi friends

Welcome back one more time to doctor Fishing. I hope you

Enjoying my videos I

Have always tried my level best to show you some good fishing action all the time

Sometimes I spent hours like 8 to 8 to 10 hours fishing and

Maybe catching like 1 or 2 fish

But still I will show you those fishing action

So that you can enjoy the videos

Today I went fishing for perch

My intention was to stay there and catch some good sized perch

You can keep 15 perch there is no size limit but

it is very hard to clean the perch if you if you catch the smaller ones, so the best way to

Reduce that workload to catch good sized jumbo perch

today I managed to catch some good sized perch I

Really wanted to stay and keep fishing. But because of some unforeseen circumstances. I

Had to come back home within like a 5 or 10 minutes into that fishing

So I decided to show you how to clean and

Have to fillet and how to fry perch

You can see in the video how I am

cleaning that perch

How I am filleting them and I will be using the South Indian style

for

frying perch I will be using coconut oil spices garlic and

fry them in South Indian style

You can check out

The description below to see what all are the spices I have used and how I fry them

Continue to watch the video and

share the video if you can with your friends and

Subscribe my channel if you haven't and

Keep smiling keep fishing and be happy

6 "Vegetarian" Animals that Will Give You Nightmares - Duration: 11:18.

[♪ INTRO ]

If I asked you to picture a forest, you might envision a sunny grove with some deer gently

nibbling on leaves as they mosey on through.

But those deer could actually be searching for a baby bird or two to munch on.

Yes, deer can be carnivorous.

In fact, many supposed plant-eaters sneak the occasional fleshy snack, usually because

some nutrients are just easier to get from animal parts.

So here are six so-called vegetarians that regularly eat meat and bones—including ours.

[1.

Deer]

Everyone knows that Bambi and his friends are vegetarians.

I mean, deer are quite literally built to eat plants.

As ruminants, they have the ability to ferment plant material in their specialized stomachs,

which allows them to live off a diet that would be way too fibrous for most creatures.

But lots of deer apparently missed that memo, as they've been caught eating everything

from baby birds to human bones.

Yes, I said human bones.

A 2017 paper suggested that deer might frequently gnaw on bodies left exposed in their habitats.

We don't have any evidence that deer kill people, outside of accidental encounters with

vehicles.

But they do most definitely kill birds.

Like, a lot.

Nest cameras in North Dakota have filmed white-tailed deer snacking on chicks more often than traditional

predators.

And on an island in Scotland, red deer have been seen biting off the heads of seabird

chicks and chewing on birds' legs.

Scientists think these deer are specifically targeting bones, since they're rich in phosphorus,

calcium, and other minerals that are less common in plants.

They need those nutrients to build strong bones for themselves, as well as those impressive

antlers that deer are so known for.

Sure, a rich mineral lick would suffice, but those aren't always around … whereas baby

birds are everywhere.

You'd expect that other ruminants would have similar dietary needs, and therefore

might also snack on the occasional bone.

And … yeah.

They do.

Sheep, cows, and even giraffes have been seen sucking on bones or actively killing small

animals—usually baby birds.

Apparently they're just a super convenient source of minerals, if you don't happen

to have a salt lick at hoof.

[2.

Squirrels]

Rodents are another group of animals that are well known for their vegetarian diets—especially

ones like squirrels and chipmunks.

They just scamper along branches and stuff their furry little cheeks full of yummy acorns,

right?

Well, it turns out when they're not busy stashing nuts and eating the cherries off

my cherry tree, squirrels and chipmunks take full advantage of their climbing ability to

go after bird eggs and nestlings.

They also seem to have no qualms eating frogs, lizards, snakes, and even turtles.

And they'll kill and eat all sorts of small mammals, including other species of squirrel

… or each other.

Maybe that shouldn't be so surprising, since rodents are notorious for eating their own

young.

But when they do, it's usually considered a sign something is going wrong.

Squirrels will act as predators when completely healthy, so there must be some other reason.

Like with deer, one important clue is that they seem to target bones.

Forensic scientists note that squirrels frequently gnaw on skeletons, for example—and their

tiny teeth can cause enough damage to obscure important clues about the cause of death.

So, they might be looking for those extra minerals like deer are.

Or they could just be looking to grind down their teeth.

All rodents have continuously-growing incisors—you know, those rodent-y things in front—so

chomping on hard bones might keep them in check.

But in many cases, like with the baby birds, squirrels definitely seem target flesh, which

might mean they hunt for the most obvious reason: Food.

Just extra calories.

Lab experiments have shown that hungrier rodents are more likely to attack live prey.

And other rodents like mice, beavers, and bunnies will also make a habit of dining on

meat if the option is available.

Meat consumption is so widespread in rodents that some scientists argue that they really

should be thought of as omnivores, not herbivores.

And given that about 40% of all mammals on the planet are rodents, that go-with-the-flow

approach to their diet might have helped them conquer the world.

[3.

Butterflies]

Anyone who has tried to grow their own veggies is all too familiar with the leaf-destroying

abilities of most caterpillars.

But some moth and butterfly larvae have decided plants are overrated, opting instead to snack

on tasty flesh.

Like inchworms in Hawaii with claw-tipped arms, which will eagerly feast on flies.

Or silk-weaving caterpillars that tie down snails so they can slurp them from their shells.

And all the caterpillars in the subfamily Miletinae eat aphids.

But eating snails and insects pales in comparison to the moths and butterflies that dine on

carrion.

That's right.

There are scavenging butterflies.

A lot of them, actually — especially when they're caterpillars.

Most of these caterpillars normally eat plants, but when the tastiest leaves are taken, they'll

go for decaying flesh.

As the saying goes, this is life, and no one gets out alive, so being able to eat dead

things is a pretty good way to make a living.

I'm not sure that was a saying, but it is now.

Caterpillars' tough jaws—strong enough to tear through starchy leaves—have no trouble

with decaying meat.

Some species are so common on corpses that they're used in forensics.

Even adult butterflies get in on the scavenging action at times, to get nutrients not found

in nectar.

They may flock to dead fish for the salts—the same reason they hang out on mineral licks

or sip turtle tears, which yes, is a thing.

But some scientists think they suck down rotting flesh for the amino acids—the molecular

building blocks of proteins.

The species caught using bait made of decaying meat are known to be super mobile butterflies,

and all that extra protein probably helps them build and keep their flying muscles.

[4.

Duikers]

Duikers are teeny little antelopes native to Africa.

They are really cute.

There are almost two dozen different species, each more adorable than the last.

But don't let their size or their cute features fool you—duikers can be ruthless.

Though they're generally considered frugivores, or fruit eaters, animal matter is frequently

found in their stomachs… by people who cut open their stomachs, apparently.

Things like insects and carrion usually make up about a tenth of a percent of their diet,

which doesn't seem like very much.

But studies have found some stomachs with 10% or more of their contents animal-sourced.

And … they don't necessarily wait for their meals to die.

In Angola, the yellow-backed duiker's taste for flesh is infamous.

According to locals, they've actually learned how to eat tortoises, leaving behind empty

shells wherever they go.

And there are tons of scientific reports of duikers and their relatives eating all sorts

of small birds, mammals, reptiles, and amphibians.

More surprisingly, they seem to enjoy killing.

Captive duikers appear to play with living food, like a cat toying with a mouse.

One bay duiker in the Zurich zoo earned a reputation for stalking, killing, and eating

pigeons that landed in its enclosure.

But those behaviors might not be natural in the wild.

In fact, why duikers eat meat isn't entirely clear.

It may be that, like their distant ruminant relatives, they use meaty snacks as nutritional

supplements.

Studies of their wild diets suggest that the plants and fruits they eat are relatively

low in minerals and protein, even though the animals fare better on a high protein diet.

But some zookeepers have found they actually do better when raw meat is excluded from their

meals.

We just don't know enough about these shy, adorable, savage little antelopes to say for

sure.

[5.

Hippos]

Hippos might look like gentle giants.

But even though they're considered herbivores, they're one of the most dangerous beasts

in Africa.

Their aggressive nature is legendary — it's said they kill more people every year than

lions and leopards combined.

And that's probably not just because they're territorial.

Recently, biologists have come to the conclusion that they actually have a taste for meat.

Hippos will scavenge carcasses they come across, and they've been known to walk right up

to a feeding crocodile and take a bite of its kill.

But much more direct and savage stories have emerged over the years, including instances

where hippos have definitely killed and eaten antelopes.

And that's weird, because it's been thought for a long time that hippos simply don't

have the stomachs—or, more accurately, the stomach bacteria—to digest meat.

But a 2015 review argues that the only thing limiting meat-eating in hippos — or most

herbivores, really — is their ability to catch and eat it.

And that makes sense, considering all the other supposed herbivores that eat meat when

they have the opportunity.

But hippos have a few meat-eating advantages over other herbivores, like their big giant

mouths and teeth that can more easily tear apart hunks of flesh.

And with their bulk—and surprising speed and agility—they are more than capable of

taking down large prey.

Just how often hippos eat meat is uncertain, though—most diet studies get their info

from plant material found in feces, which does not tell you whether or not the animal

has consumed meat.

And it's hard to observe everything that goes into the hippos' mouths because they

tend to eat at night.

Also ... it's kind of tough to stay close enough to a giant aggressive hippo to see

what it's nibbling on.

You can't really do a diet study if you become a part of the diet study.

If you know what I mean...

[6.

Primates]

Obviously, we humans aren't always vegetarians.

And it's no secret that chimpanzees wage wars against one another, and will hunt, kill,

and consume other animals, especially monkeys.

But most primates have a more peaceful reputation.

Take bonobos, for example.

These chimp cousins were supposed to basically embody the 1960s hippie movement—you know,

making love, not war.

Even though they're basically the same size and strength as chimpanzees, people thought

they opted for a much more vegetarian diet.

That is, until about a decade ago, when anthropologists watched them hunt down monkeys and other,

smaller mammals.

And those observations are backed by DNA—fecal DNA, to be precise.

A 2010 study of 128 bonobo poop samples found evidence for recent meat consumption in 16%

of them.

One reason that these and other primates might eat the occasional steak is that it's hard

to get enough Vitamin B12 with a purely vegetarian diet.

B12 is essential for healthy blood and nerve cells, and we mammals can't make it ourselves.

Some animals, like ruminants and other animals with multiple stomachs, like hippos, have

bacteria in their guts that produce this key nutrient.

So they get what they need because their weird anatomy.

We have some of these bacteria, too, but there's a catch—they live so far along in our digestive

tract that we just poop out all the B12 that they make.

That's probably why bunnies and some rodents eat their own feces, and if they don't,

they get B12 by having a non-vegan diet — usually, by supplementing with insects.

So it makes sense that even the most vegetarian-leaning primates might actually be somewhat omnivorous

to ensure they get enough B12.

Many primates probably eat insects for this exact reason, but some—like bonobos and

chimpanzees—clearly have no problem subbing in a little red meat instead.

And I do feel like mentioning you can get B12 without meat, it's just us humans have

a lot more dietary opportunities than wild chimpanzees.

But in the end, even animals we thought were super strict vegans might cheat a little more

often—or a lot more often—than we ever imagined.

But if they do eat a little flesh now and then, they probably have a good reason for

it.

Learning what animals eat and why can help us take better care of them in captivity and

understand our own dietary needs.

If we want to go full vegan, we can just get a B12 from pills or shots, or fordfied food,

not from eating our own poop.

Would you rather be a hero or a villain? - DragoNate Reading Your Answers - Duration: 5:09.

would you rather be a hero or a villain hello friends I am dragonate welcome to

another dragonate reading your answers video it has been another week

already it feels like it has gone by so slow this week I was planning to have so

many videos I was like a video every day but that kind of did not really happen

which is okay I missed a couple days but that's fine I'm kind of proud of myself

for it for how much I did do so yeah either way that is kind of it this next

week with live streams will resume as normal because I won't be working I

won't be working again for a couple weeks now so that should be all good

anyway you guys are here for a question we need a new one for this week and I

have been thinking about this one for a little bit here that would be if you

have to live without one of your senses which one would you choose if you could

choose which one you would never have again which one would you choose leave

your answers in the comments below and I will read them next week now let's see

if you would rather be a hero or a villain hemti says the villain the

trolls heroes by doing good things just to mess with the heroes head pretty

messed up there buddy funny fluffy says it's a tough one I wouldn't really say

him too helpful to be here so I might have to go for villain but I would do my

best to not kill or harm people only the ones that get in my way

Crocker said he had an answer ready but then I said one or now there's no gray

area for me I'll just leave you without proper answer but he did I but I did

prior the answer from his tight grip and he says what about last possible choice

to be both I don't know how well that would work but hey why not my mom says I

guess I would say neither as I like Who I am if I had to choose I would want to

be a hero and help others for the right reason oh my legs being evil so he'd be

a villain and DLT dev says I love villains they're so good and have cool

powers and stuff I want to be one if I could and last but not least myself if I

had to choose I would probably choose to be a hero

villains usually end up losing in the end no matter how many victories I

actually have they usually end up losing in the end and usually in all the

stories the hero always wins because that's how things go

there has to be a good ending for things pretty much all the time so yeah I'll

stick with being here oh plus I like doing good so yeah I don't really care

to have is some evil lair with all this mastermind machinery stuff and all that

going on or minions I don't care for that kind of thing I'd rather I'd rather

do my own thing and prevent things bad things from happening and that's it

that's it for your answer so thank you all so much for a participation thing

let me know how you like the new perspective I have kind of doubled up my

green screen here now it opens up sideways instead of like from the bottom

I have to pick up so much to move it from the bottom now and I've moved my

camera a little further away so that more of me and more space can be seen I

guess and I I kind of want this the only thing I have to do now is kind of change

my monitors around slightly I have the the monitor arm is kind of way at the

back and it's also quite low so my monitor can only go so high and right

now I'm looking at the top of the monitor and so to you guys I'm looking

down and the camera is actually slightly down rate about here it's actually level

so I'm slightly looking down at it but it doesn't it's not super noticeable

because it's so far away and because the camera is also kind of angled upwards I

think a bit so yeah my monitors are now a bit too low I think or at least my

main one is for sure it always has been so now I kind of wanted to change that I

I want I wanted to change I wanted some change it feels kind of good to kind of

change things around a little bit so let me know what you think as always I am

most curious and to know what you guys think and what you guys think is of

course the most important to me regarding these videos and stuff but as

you see I now have a little bit more room I can kind of actually stretch out

my arms a little bit I'm not confined to this to this little

tiny space here I don't have like point up here to to say go up there to look at

Humble Bundle clicking the link will help support me they have a new software

bundle out with a lot of different things I have a video editing software

they have image editing software they have game

development software and they have some interesting little things like set

something called multiplicity which is similar to synergy it likes you link two

of your computer multiple computers together so that you can use a one

keyboard and one mouse across multiple devices as well as some other cool

things go check it out if you like link up there and also over here at the very

end I like having so much more room it's so cool either way that's it so don't

forget your question for this week again which is which of your five senses could

you live without if you had to choose one that you would never have again

which one do you think and do you feel you would be able to live without - let

me know in the comments below and I'll read them next week that's it for now

thank you so much for watching hope you have a wonderful Sunday and I will see

you again very very soon bye bye and Godbless

10 Amazing Animal Organs That Would Give You Superpowers - Duration: 13:47.

10 Amazing Animal Organs That Would Give You Superpowers

It's interesting to imagine ourselves with abilities that far surpass what a human can do.

Just visualize yourself lifting 10 times your own weight or being able to see radiation with your own eyes.In a way, that's not as crazy as it might sound.

If it were possible to implant certain animal organs into our own bodies, they could give us these powers and much more. Listverse - Daily Highlights.

First, let us look at the planarian's cells. These amazing flatworms have one distinct ability that we all wish we had.

They can regenerate limbs at will. In addition, scientists have cut up planarians into several pieces and found that each piece will grow into its very own worm, complete and intact.

It even retains its memories from when it was just a single organism. So the planarian can essentially clone itself and still retain all its memories. (Now we really wish we had this ability.).

You can chop off the worm's head, and the head will grow its own new body. The original body, which can detect light even without the original head, will grow a new head with a brain and nervous system.[1].

Remember those multiheaded dragons from cartoons? Planarians also have this distinct ability. If cut up in a certain way, they have been found to grow multiple heads—in some cases, up to 10! Pretty neat, huh?.

A snake's vomeronasal organ (aka Jacobson's organ) can help it to track down prey even over long distances.

(If this organ worked the same for humans, it would help us track a wife or husband in a crowded mall or our child at Walmart, for example.).

This is done by detecting non-volatile chemical substances (which need direct contact with the epithelium to be detected) such as pheromones or the scent of a prey, which are left by every animal. Snakes use their tongues to collect those particles onto their vomeronasal organs.

The bifurcated tongue of a snake will even allow them to analyze the data collected and determine which way their prey went.[2] This would be a great thing for a human in a law enforcement agency.

While freezing to death is not the most painful way to die, it could very well be the most uncomfortable way to go.

Thousands of people have attempted to climb Mount Everest; almost every year someone succumbs to the freezing climate, and thousands more expire from the cold all over the world.

But what if we could find a way around this? Instead of succumbing to the cold, what if we could thaw out and be fully alive once spring came?.

Well, this is exactly what the wood frog does every year. Instead of raising its metabolic rate to create internal heat like we mammals do, the wood frog does exactly the opposite.

This unique animal slows its own metabolism dramatically so that it can survive, even without energy or oxygen.

The heart and almost every other organ in the wood frog's body stops completely. Individual cells stay alive, but they would have no way of communicating with each other.

To quote Don Larson, who was a University of Alaska grad student at the time, "On an organismal level, they are essentially dead. "[3].

The frog secretes glucose from its liver into the bloodstream, focusing the glucose on all its internal organs. Acting as a natural antifreeze, the glucose keeps the frog's insides from freezing until it can thaw out in the spring.

The Ophiocoma wendtii is an exceptionally amusing creature. Its visual capabilities surpass almost anything that humanity has ever created. Roy Sambles of the University of Exeter said, "It's astonishing that this organic creature can manipulate inorganic matter with such precision—and yet it's got no brain."[4].

This brittle star has an incredible ability to see in almost any direction from just about anywhere on his body. This is because the Ophiocoma wendtii is covered in tiny, crystalline, ball-like lenses that turn its whole body into an all-seeing eye.

To put this into perspective, that would be the equivalent of humans being able to see from every hair follicle on our bodies.

For the brittle star, this means that it can run away from predators while looking for a spot to hide and everything else in between. A human going to a haunted house with this ability would certainly ruin the experience.

If you thought that the previous brittle star had amazing visual capabilities, then you're in for a treat. With its 12 to 21 photoreceptors, the mantis shrimp has some of the best eyes in the world.

For comparison, a human's eyes have only three photoreceptors. Unlike us, the mantis shrimp can see ultraviolet light as well as different shades of the light. Its visual capabilities are like those of out-of-orbit satellites.

This discovery initially baffled scientists because the mantis shrimp has the best naturally occurring UV light–detecting mechanisms in the world but an odd way of distinguishing colors.[5].

Although researchers have figured out what the mantis shrimp's eyes do, how it happens and why the animal evolved like that remains a mystery. By the way, this creature isn't really a shrimp. It's more closely related to lobsters and crabs.

Our feet travel great distances. They get us from point A to point B. But what if we could walk on water? Even if it was just for a short distance, it'd be a great thing to be able to do, right?.

Well, the feet of the green basilisk can do just that. Being able to sprint 4.6 meters (15 ft) on water, this creature has been dubbed the "Jesus Christ lizard" for obvious reasons.

It manages this due to its fringed feet. They unfurl as the lizard runs, trapping air inside and thus allowing the creature to run on water.[6]. Just imagine how cool it would be if we could walk on water like this.

Flight and stealth are hard to manage even with today's technology. Sure, we have stealth jets, but how many millions (or even billions) do we spend making one of these?.

Imagine if we could fly anywhere in almost complete silence undetected by our enemies. Well, the owl does just that.

Being a nocturnal hunting creature, it captures its prey with near 100 percent success due to two things—its sight (which shouldn't come as a surprise) and its wings. The noiseless flight has baffled many, so how does the owl do it?.

It's mostly due to the structure of its broad wings, which cover a large surface area. As a result, the owl doesn't have to flap its wings often, which brings about its near noiseless flight.[7].

More importantly, the owl's primary feathers are also serrated, breaking down turbulence. Then the edges of those feathers muffle the sound of air, aiding in the bird's unique mystical ability.

It's pitch-black, and you can't hear anything. If you were looking for someone, how would you go about it?.

We humans are limited to five senses: sight, touch, taste, hearing, and smell. It would be hard to detect someone in that situation given our current abilities.

So, what if we were able to detect a person (or any living being) through their electrical signals?.

Most, if not all, living things have electricity running through them, generated by their hearts, brains, and nervous systems. A platypus's bill can detect all those signals even in the dark, cold water.

Its bill uses two mechanisms, electroreception and mechanoreception, to detect moving prey in the water. The bill has striped pores that send out electrical signals to detect the electricity in its prey.

The mechanical receptors send out signals that detect and predict where its prey will be headed.

Bombardier possess a unique and extremely effective way of defending themselves against would-be predators. If humans were to possess a power like this, crime rates would probably drop exponentially.

If only we could look past the fact that this ability originates from the insects' butts. The bombardier beetle uses its behind to spray scalding, corrosive liquid right into its enemy's face.

A team of researchers from MIT, the University of Arizona, and the Brookhaven National Laboratory used high-speed synchrotron X-ray imaging to see exactly how this bug managed its unique feat.[9].

Benzoquinone is made in the bug's behind by mixing two liquids together. This results in a chemical reaction in which these liquids boil while simultaneously creating the pressure needed to expel the benzoquinone in a pulsating spray.

The chamber that held the liquid shuts itself off from the compartment that provided the liquid, giving the chamber walls enough time to cool off before the spray is expelled again. Sperm Whale's Circulatory System.

A Badjao tribesman was documented going as far as 20 meters (65 ft) underwater for about five minutes. At that depth, water causes a lot of pressure on your body.

To be able to hold your breath for that long under that pressure without any equipment is not easy.

The longest time that someone has held his breath voluntarily is 24 minutes and 3. 45 seconds, which was achieved by Aleix Segura Vendrell in Barcelona, Spain, on February 28, 2016, according to Guinness World Records.

Now, imagine being able to hold your breath for close to two hours instead. The sperm whale does this as part of its natural life.

Every 90 minutes or so, the whale will float to the surface, blow the air out of its lungs at 300–500 kilometers per hour (185–310 mph), and inhale as much oxygen as possible before going back down.[10].

The common misconception is that the whale has huge lungs, but that's far from the truth. Proportionately speaking, a whale's lungs aren't that much bigger than those of any land mammal. Instead, the whale achieves this by having a modified circulatory system.

First, the sperm whale's circulatory system carries far more red blood cells (which hold oxygen) than other mammal. Also, while the whale is underwater, its heartbeat slows down, rising slightly only when surfacing for more air.

While the animal dives, the blood flow becomes restricted, nearly stopping in some areas. Despite this, the whale can still be active because large amounts of oxygen are stored in its muscles.
