Text appearing on the screen says, “Saying goodbye to our camera, leaving it behind to record sunset without us humans around.”Shot near Maui Island in Hawaii, US, the video captures marine life at a depth of 24 feet in the Pacific Ocean. As daylight slowly fades, the camera records sea turtles gliding through the water, schools of fish moving around the reef, and the calm rhythm of underwater life. Another overlay describes it as “the reef when humans aren’t looking.”The video also highlights Hawaiian sea turtles “dancing in the sunset,” while whale calls and fish chirps echo through the water. But the mood shifts briefly when one of the reef’s major predators appears—the Omilu, also known as the Bluefin Trevally, often referred to as the “wolves of the reef”.As darkness takes over, the text reads, “the sun has officially set and its time for the sharks,” before the diver eventually returns to retrieve the camera.Watch the video: View this post on Instagram A post shared by DiveDiveLive!麗 (@divedivelive) The mesmerising footage has exploded online, racking up more than 80 million views and over 11 million comments.

You can hear what sounds like ‘frequencies’, the noises of ‘sirens’ (not saying that what’s causing them but it was the closest sound the came to mind to describe the sounds here), what oddly sounds like whaling/crying. What sounds like chirps/squeaks. What causes all these noises?”
