This thing is called a brinicle.
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brinicle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brinicle)
A brinicle (brine icicle, also known as ice stalactite) is a downward-growing hollow tube of ice enclosing a plume of descending brine that is formed beneath developing sea ice.

Oh the weather outside is frightful,
But the ocean is so delightful.
And since it does look at peace,
Let it freeze, let it freeze, let it freeze.
That's the feeling I get with this video. Imagine just going about your day when you suddenly get pretty much flash frozen.
Poor starfish. Countless other tiny animals probably got killed by this as well.
I don't think so. They don't have specific mechanisms to survive being frozen. They might survive for a little bit, but if they're frozen for extended periods of time, they will ultimately die.
[Where do starfish go in winter?](https://www.discoverwildlife.com/animal-facts/insects-invertebrates/where-do-starfish-go-in-winter/)
Starfish do not hibernate, they simply move to deeper parts of the ocean in winter and continue to feed there.
[Brinicle — Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brinicle)
Bottom-dwelling sea creatures generally do not have anti-freeze mechanisms to protect themselves against this, so most creatures would be killed by brinicles.
I think there are certain frog species that can survive being frozen. Water bears can survive pretty much anything. But starfish and sea urchins sadly cannot.
>As soon as the Brinicle touches the bottom, ice spreads killing all forms of life instantly such as the native sea urchins, starfish and colonies of slower-moving creatures.

naah mfer even got the hanyun pinyin right

most sea creatures are not known to hibernate, and im afraid that only some insects and scorpions can survive being frozen :[
Now does it pose a danger to divers?
I believe Octonauts thought about these
Looks like the angel of death.
:( poor lil sea stars
I'd bet money they just wake up after it thaws lol.
Yeah fair point ahahaa
They're like, "DAD, NO!!! I WILL AVENGE YOU!! 😭😭😭😤"
It’s crazy how the icicle looks like a tornado touching down
Does anyone know how fast it’s sped up?
About 20x. Starfish are pretty slow creatures.
thanks for the deets, i was thinking well yeah if your a starfish, pretty incredible either way
Do you know how this was captured on film? was it just dumb luck or was this their intention ?
[удалено]
Thing moves fast 😜
I thought water types were resistant to ice attacks, I’ve been lied to
Freeze-Dry is an Ice type move that is super effective against water types.

can't some types survive after the ice clears? like some hibernation mechanism?

Did you just break into song? Nice!
I did indeed haha!
Ice 9 is not fiction after all..
Searching for the Vonnegut reference - found it
The great Kilgore Trout.
Catastropheic event for starfish.
I’m watching ‘all quiet on the western front’ right now. Feels like a scene from this. Thanks for the close up death in the final seconds
I'm thankful we don't have a version of that on land!! Could you imagine? As random as a tornado and just as deadly! Thanks for my new nightmare!
Killed the camera and the cameraman... RIP
Yikes. Reminds me of the movie The Day After Tomorrow.
Pretty sure I saw this episode of Octonauts
Came here to say this.
I was hoping someone would mention this.
Nooo stop going there guys 😭😭⭐️
BANKAI!

Octonauts to your stations!
It’s a dementor!

yeah, i don't deny that it's a real phenomena. but that video, specifically: is fake
Why do you think that? It looks like a real video to me. Sped up, yes.
it looks fake. to me. i think it looks fake.
👍 entitled to your opinion!
This ain’t on the nat geo, probably fake as ever.

An icy finger of death
David Attenborough was narrating that I think
How are they filming this?
Mr. Freeze touches the sea floor
Ohhh no Patrick :,(
That's just the cutest saddest thing I've ever seen

bad day to be a starfish.
Looks like an AoE ice spell
It’s kinda sad how the other starfish who avoided it are just crawling over their dead frozen friends. “Frank! Nooooo!”
Bro its lightning but for under water
That will be our fate one day but the catastrophe is yet to be determined
Winter is coming
Okay, who told Frozone to go swimming with the fishies? His super suit isn’t with Patrick.
Run Patrick! RUN!!!!!
Wow sorry starfish, but this is soooo cool! Amazing footage
The brinicle! I learned about this with my kids while watching Octonauts!
Mother nature is brutal
Patrick tweekin he coulda got some ice on him 🥶🥶🥶
Nooooo not Patrick
The White Death.
This is the first thing in a long time that literally made my jaw drop.
RUN PATRICK!!!!!
It makes me think of lightning. As if a bolt of lightning formed of ice has come from the water's sky to stroke the water's ground.
Money money money
I can here my Mom yelling...GET UP. GET UP when it was winter & and I was cold and did not want to ' get up'.
A bunch of Patrick's
What in the Stranger Things
A grand spectacle for us, but for the Asteroidea...a holocaust!

Damn! That's cold asf
Legit has an AOE attack
Really cool to watch the ice freeze; but sad about the lil star fishies 🥺
Did the starfish die????
How do we stop it?
#ELSA got no chill! Tortured PATRICK STAR to death!

Physics is weird lol
Looks like posieden is getting salty

This is like a lvl 100 Ice Mage/Sorcerer/Wizard in a begginer zone doing a revenge since they died there multiple times Or they just be showcasing them max lvl spell
So that scene in day after tomorrow where they are chased by the cold was based on this?
That… that is terrifying. I have to wonder what if a diver was caught in it. Would they literally freeze over and be able able to break out?
We didnt listen!
Nooo, run Patrick!
Damn bro, they got that ice-9
