\h\h\h\h\h\hTHE MEADOWS ARE AN ELECTRIC FISH SANCTUARY.

WITH SO MANY OF THEM \h\h\h\hIN ONE PLACE,

THE CHANCE OF FINDING \h\h\h\hA NEW SPECIES

BECOMES A REAL POSSIBILITY.

\hWill: THERE’S NO HABITAT LIKE THIS ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD.

THE ENTIRE RAFT OF VEGETATION

\h\hRISES UP AND DOWN WITH THE FLOODWATERS.

\hTHE ROOTS OF THESE PLANTS JUST DANGLE INTO THE WATER

AND EXTRACT NUTRIENTS \h\hOUT OF THE WATER

INSTEAD OF FROM THE SOIL.

AND THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY \h\h\hWONDERFUL PLACES

TO FIND ELECTRIC FISH.

THERE ARE ENTIRE SPECIALIZED \h\hCOMMUNITIES OF KNIFEFISH

THAT LIVE HERE,

AND, UM, THERE’S AN ENORMOUS \h\h\h\hAMOUNT OF DIVERSITY,

\h\h\h\hINCLUDING MANY SPECIES THAT ARE YET TO BE DISCOVERED.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hNarrator: IT’S IN MEADOWS LIKE THESE

\h\h\h\h\hTHAT WILL HAS FOUND MANY OF HIS NEW DISCOVERIES.

[CLICKS PULSING]

SOME OF THE ELECTRIC WAVE FORMS ARE SO DISTINCT,

\h\h\h\h\hHE CAN TELL IF IT’S SOMETHING NEW

JUST BY LISTENING.

[CLICKS PULSING]

Will: I CAN HEAR AT LEAST THREE DIFFERENT SPECIES JUST HERE,

BUT IF WE MOVE THE ELECTRODE \h\hOUT INTO THE OPEN WATER,

THERE’S NOTHING.

\hTHEY’RE ALL INSIDE THE FLOATING MEADOW.

[CLICKS PULSING]

Narrator: THE FISH USE DIFFERENT FREQUENCIES,

LIKE RADIO STATIONS.

\h\h\hTHIS ALLOWS THEM TO IDENTIFY EACH OTHER

AND AVOID INTERFERENCE.

[CLICKS PULSING]

\h\h\hWILL RECOGNIZES MOST OF THE SIGNALS,

BUT THERE ARE ONE OR TWO \hHE HASN’T HEARD BEFORE.

[CLICKS PULSING]

Will: OOH, SOMETHING \h\hMOVING IN THERE.

HE’S IN THERE. YEP.

\h\hAH, FANTASTIC. THIS IS A BIG ONE.

OH, YES, THIS IS A,

THIS IS A VERY INTERESTING \h\h\h\h\h\hELECTRIC FISH.

LIKE THE ELECTRIC EEL, \h\h\hAN AIR BREATHER.

ACTUALLY FROM THE SAME FAMILY.

WHOA, HE’S GOING TO ESCAPE.

OH.

HERE WE GO.

MAGNIFICENT SPECIMEN.

ONE OF THE BANDED KNIFEFISHES.

Narrator: WILL BAGS IT, READY TO RETURN TO CAMP

WHERE HE CAN STUDY IT FURTHER.

Will: HE’S A LOVELY SPECIMEN.

I SAY HE. IT COULD BE A SHE.

[CLICKS PULSING]

GROUND ZERO RIGHT HERE.

OK.

Narrator: THE MEADOW IS PACKED FULL OF ELECTRIC FISH.

\h\h\hWILL CATCHES AS MANY DIFFERENT TYPES AS HE CAN.

WITH SO MANY DIFFERENT \h\h\h\h\h\hVARIATIONS,

\h\h\h\hTHE ONLY DEFINITIVE WAY TO TELL IF HE HAS A NEW SPECIES

\h\h\h\h\h\hIS TO RECORD THEIR ELECTRIC WAVEFORMS.

[THUNDER]

WILL’S GOT A SCHEDULE PLANNED,

BUT THE AMAZON PLAYS \h\hBY ITS OWN RULES.

Will: STORMS ARE A REAL WORRY.

ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS THINGS IN THE AMAZON

\h\h\hIS THE RISK OF A TREE FALLING ON YOU IN A STORM.

\h\h\h\h\hA GIANT TREE JUST CRASHED DOWN INTO THE RIVER

IN A PLACE WHERE WE HAD JUST \h\h\hPASSED SECONDS EARLIER.

ONE DAY YOUR NUMBER’S \h\h\hGONNA COME UP,

BUT WE WERE VERY CLOSE TO \hGETTING IT RIGHT THEN.

THAT WAS SCARY.

♪

♪

\h\h\h\h\hWill: THE STORM’S REALLY MESSED UP THE CAMP.

[BOOTS SLOSHING]

Narrator: WILL STARTS TO ANALYZE HIS CATCH

TO SEE IF HE’S FOUND \h\h\hSOMETHING NEW.

EVERY SPECIES HE FINDS

\h\h\h\hADDS TO THE PUZZLE OF ELECTRIC FISH RESEARCH.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWill: YEAH, THAT WOULD MAKE SENSE.

[INSECTS BUZZING]

GOT IT.

Narrator: WILL TURNS A COOLER \h\h\h\hINTO A MINI AQUARIUM

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTO RECORD THE ELECTRIC FISH SIGNALS.

[CLICKS PULSING]

WHAT HE FINDS IS SURPRISING.

ONE OF THE WAVEFORMS IS UNLIKE ANYTHING HE HAS EVER SEEN.

\h\h\hWill: AND THIS SPECIES, WHICH I THINK IS UNDESCRIBED,

I’VE NEVER SEEN IT BEFORE,

HAS A VERY DISTINCTIVE WAVEFORM WITH FOUR PHASES.

\hIT’S SHORTER, SO IT SOUNDS LIKE IT’S A HIGHER FREQUENCY.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hNarrator: IT’S AN EXCITING DISCOVERY

\hAND COULD BE A VALUABLE ADDITION TO HIS RESEARCH.

IF THIS IS A NEW SPECIES,

WILL CAN FORMALLY NAME IT \hAND ADD IT TO HIS LIST,

ALONG WITH THE 50 OTHERS \h\hTHAT HE’S DESCRIBED.

\hBUT NOW WILL HAS BIGGER FISH TO FRY.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWill: HERE’S THE MOMENT OF TRUTH.

424 VOLTS.

424 VOLTS COMING FROM A FISH.

THAT’S PRETTY AMAZING.

\h\h\h\h\hTHAT’S ALMOST FOUR TIMES THE VOLTAGE

OF A MAINS ELECTRICAL OUTLET \h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hIN THE U.S.

IT JUST NEVER CEASES TO AMAZE ME

THAT A FISH CAN GENERATE \h\h\hAN ELECTRIC VOLTAGE

THAT’S THAT HIGH.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hNarrator: WHEN THE ELECTRIC EEL ATTACKS,

IT BLASTS OUT A SERIES OF HIGH-VOLTAGE PULSES.

AROUND 400 PER SECOND.

THEY TRAVEL THROUGH WATER \h\h\h\hINSTANTANEOUSLY.

ANYTHING WITHIN RANGE WILL RECEIVE AN ELECTRIC SHOCK.

WILL SETS UP AN L.E.D. LIGHT \hHOOKED UP TO TWO ELECTRODES

\h\h\hTO VISUALLY SHOW HOW MUCH ELECTRICITY THE EEL GENERATES.

[CLICKING]

BUT EVEN THE WORLD’S LEADING \h\hEXPERTS ON ELECTRIC FISH

CAN GET SOME NASTY SURPRISES.

Will: AHH! DAMN.

GOT SHOCKED BY THE BLOODY EEL.

OH!

Narrator: THE EEL’S SHOCK

\h\h\hIS STRONG ENOUGH TO GIVE WILL A FRIGHT,

BUT DOESN’T LAST LONG ENOUGH \h\hTO HEAT A CUP OF COFFEE.

Will: HE MUST HAVE MADE A LUNGE TOWARDS THE TWO WIRES,

THE TWO ELECTRODES IN THE WATER.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAND I JUST GOT THE FULL BRUNT OF THE SHOCK.

I DROPPED THE CIRCUIT BOARD, \h\h\h\h\hIT FELL IN THE MUD,

\hAND I WAS OUT OF IT FOR A COUPLE SECONDS.

THE THING ABOUT PAIN IS THAT IT’S THE ANTICIPATION OF PAIN

THAT’S THE WORST THING,

SO I ALWAYS TRY VERY HARD TO AVOID GETTING SHOCKED.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI REALLY, I REALLY DON’T LIKE IT.

Narrator: NOW THAT WILL \h\hHAS AN ELECTRIC EEL

AND A SMALL ELECTRIC FISH,

HE HAS THE CHANCE TO FIND OUT

HOW THE TWO INTERACT \h\hWITH EACH OTHER.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hHE WANTS TO SEE WHAT’S GOING ON IN THE WATER

\h\h\hWHILE THE ELECTRIC EEL IS HUNTING AN ELECTRIC FISH.

HE WAITS FOR NIGHTFALL.

♪

HE’S PUT A SMALL KNIFEFISH \h\h\h\h\hIN WITH THE EEL.

Will: THERE’S THE EEL’S PULSING.

[CLICKS PULSING]

THE KNIFEFISH PULSING.

[CLICKS PULSING]

\hNarrator: AS WILL LISTENS TO THE SOUNDS OF THE HUNT,

\h\h\h\h\h\hHE NOTICES SOME UNUSUAL BEHAVIOR.

Will: THE PREY FISH IS ACTUALLY SWITCHING SIGNAL ON AND OFF.

\hNOW, FOR EXAMPLE, HE’S SWITCHED OFF.

\h\hI HAVE THE ELECTRODE RIGHT NEAR THE PREY FISH,

AND IT’S NOT GENERATING \h\hANYTHING RIGHT NOW.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hNarrator: AS THE EEL COMES CLOSE,

THE PREY SWITCHES OFF \hITS ELECTRIC FIELD.

IT SENSES DANGER

AND CAN HIDE FROM THE EEL BY GOING UNDER THE RADAR.

EVEN IN THE WIDER SURROUNDINGS OF ITS NATURAL HABITAT,

THE EEL HAS A COUNTERMEASURE.

WHEN PREY STOPS SENDING OUT \h\h\hELECTRICAL IMPULSES,

IT’S INVISIBLE TO THE EEL.

[CLICKING]

\hBUT BY SENDING OUT A SMALL DOUBLE SHOCK,

\h\h\h\hTHE EEL CAN TRIGGER THE PREY’S NERVOUS SYSTEM,

MAKING IT TWITCH AND REVEAL ITSELF

THROUGH VIBRATIONS IN THE WATER.

[CLICKING]

THE EEL USES ITS SUPER POWER

\h\h\h\hTO REMOTELY CONTROL ITS PREY’S NERVOUS SYSTEM,

FORCING IT TO GIVE UP \h\h\hITS POSITION...

READY FOR AN EEL TAKEDOWN.

♪

\h\hIF YOU THOUGHT THERE WAS NOWHERE WILD LEFT TO EXPLORE,

THINK AGAIN.

HERE IN THE DEPTHS \h\hOF THE AMAZON,

WILL HAS UNLOCKED AN INCREDIBLE \h\h\hWORLD OF ELECTRIC POWERS

AND HIGH-TECH COMMUNICATION.

HE’S POTENTIALLY FOUND \h\h\h\hA NEW SPECIES,

WITNESSED RARE ELECTRIC EEL \h\h\h\h\hHUNTING BEHAVIOR,

\hAND COLLECTED INVALUABLE ELECTRIC SIGNAL RECORDINGS.

\h\h\h\h\hWill: I THINK THE, THE THING THAT DRIVES ME MOST

IS UNDERSTANDING THE COMPLEXITY,

MAKING SENSE OF WHAT INITIALLY \h\h\h\hIS JUST ALMOST CHAOTIC,

BUT WITH TIME AND PATIENCE

\h\hAND THE COLLECTION OF MORE AND MORE DATA,

EVENTUALLY YOU START \h\hTO SEE PATTERNS.

AND THE LONGER I’VE BEEN \hSTUDYING ELECTRIC FISH,

THE MORE I’VE BEGUN TO UNRAVEL \h\h\h\h\h\h\hTHIS COMPLEXITY,

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAND THAT’S TREMENDOUSLY SATISFYING.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hNarrator: EVERY TRIP INTO THE RAINFOREST

\hIS AN ADVENTURE INTO THE UNKNOWN,

INTO A WORLD THAT WE ARE ONLY JUST STARTING TO UNDERSTAND.

WHO KNOWS HOW MANY MORE SECRETS \hLIE IN THIS ELECTRIC AMAZON,

WAITING TO BE DISCOVERED?
