The guy swimming with a dead whale carcass back into the ocean had to be a COMPLETE NUT CASE. He actually put himself on a plate of SHARK FOOD... UNBELIEVABLE!
I don’t think he considered the danger for a second. Everyone was very upset over the horrible smell from the whale carcass, they stated he as well loved by his community and he was just trying to be a nice guy and for that he lost his life. My deepest condolences to all of his family and friends for their loss
@@deedeebolennot considering the danger is what made him a nutcase, but I have no doubt he believed his good deed would grant him immunity & who knows….perhaps he was dared by villagers to attempt such an insane act
He was clearly a bit of an idiot to do that. Nice man or not, swimming out to sea with a whale carcass is like playing chicken with cars on a busy freeway. He is a candidate for the 2023 Darwin Awards.
I completely agree, what about all the people sitting there smiling watching him do it, they are just as... I want to say ignorant but that's not strong enough of a word. Unbelievable! Idiots, every one of them.
Never kayak with crocs, never swim in the oceans with sharks and never camp in grizzly territory. It’s that simple folks. You do these things you’re inviting them to dinner.
And definitely not on the top of that food chain either….. I live in Eastern NC, going to the NC beaches all my life even living near the coast for 5yrs. I do not remember hearing about shark attacks back in the 80s & 90s like now. We were lucky because we would go into the water near fishing piers, going into the water as soon as we could which was usually around 9am-10am and playing in the water all day. Then the older I got I stupidly went into the water at night on several occasions (I will say I did not see the movie Jaws till the early 2000’s, I was a scared of horror movies and since Jaws feel in the category I never did see the movie till I was in my late 20s. If I saw Jaws in the 80s, I would had never went into the water. After watching Jaws and all the shark attacks, when I would go to the beach I would not go any deeper than knee deep. That has changed since I saw the video of a rather large shark, I think the person who recorded the video suspected it was possibly a bull shark going after a turtle that swam to shore. I was amazed how shallow the water was that the shark swam into…… I doubt I will be going into the ocean again, I can enjoy the water from the beach and wherever I stay when vacationing at a beach will have a pool. That is the only water I will be entering when vacationing at the beach…..
When a shark attacks a surfer on a board, knocks them off, then circles back to kill them, that's not mistaken identity.... especially when they eat the whole body. Experts need to stop lying to us about how they mistake humans for seals. Some of these sharks are clearly hunting humans.
Lol it calls instinct when you are hungry haven eat one thing a few days sees a free Hamburger Grab for free in a restaurant you would not eaten it?????same with Animals and by the way the ocean is their area ,why humans did those things????attacked someone but goes away and the they come back to kill the enemy like in Street Gangs Etc,yes because they fear theyre Area lost by others etc. Same here defending or being Hungry asf thats why sharks kills and eats Humans
Maybe, in instances where humans have wiped out their natural prey and the shark is extremely hungry 🤷🏻♀️ Doesn’t change the fact that humans are incredibly unlikely to be attacked by a shark, meanwhile they’re killing at least 100 million sharks annually. But go off.
I find the part about sharks hunting humans humourous... People are invading their home... Someone invaded your home would you hunt them down in your house??
I watched the video what looked to be the woman sitting on the ground bending over holding one of her legs in pain agony more like it. Poor girl. Yeah her daughter will need lots of loving support from family ❤️
Amen! So fed up with the RU-vid Nazis! What you think is WRONG! What you feel is WRONG! What you say is WRONG! Oh yeah & how you spell it's WRONG! Sick a these MFs'!@@KamalaGaveMyBlackJobToMigrants
@@andywatson7776dawg she’s been through something most of us have the privilege to never have gone through . And you say “don’t worry about it” you’re a weak man 🫵
Can we plz have a video that doesn’t insult our intelligence on this “sharks can’t tell the difference between seals, sea lions or a human being?” I apologize if this sounds rude, and I love all shark channels…….but experts CANNOT keep talking out both sides of their mouth on this subject. They tell us that sharks are evolutions most success story! They say they have needed to change very little to thrive, and are a perfect sensory machine. Then out the other end of the experts mouth they want to say that a sharks senses often fail them and they can’t decipher between a seal or a human (diver/suffer with board). It’s absolutely ridiculous to think that a shark doesn’t have the capacity with his senses to know what the heck he’s attacking. I think a MUCH better explanation for many of these attacks are not “mistaken identity….so the shark just left after attack” but instead TERRITORIAL attacks. We are on a sharks menu, so he may eat some parts of a body, but he may attack and leave because it was a territorial attack.
If it was as you say territorial wouldn't the shark stay in the area instead of leaving if that was the sharks territory? They sometimes also kill seals n don't even eat them explain that ?
You could probably add Cameron Robbins to the list. He was the kid that jumped off the party boat at night in the Bahamas May 24 and immediately disappeared. Inconclusive videIo taken of the incident suggests he may have been taken by a shark. His remains were never found.
There are always efforts to cover up attacks to keep the numbers down. If they can they will always try to list deaths as drownings or 'lost at sea'. Even when a person disappears in 20 seconds next to an anchored boat like Robbins. I would not be surprised if the real number was twice as high.
Agreed sharks are intelligent predators I think they 100 % can tell we are different from a seal. When we are in the water we are prey if they are hungry we are on the menu simple as that.
And education will tell you sharks are opportunistic predators with excellent vision. Considering tiger sharks eat everything they come across and often devour people whole, it’s not a “mistake.”
@Madeline-di4wh 100% I don't like this notion that attacks are done by mistake because they think humans are seals. Great whites will stalk their prey long before they launch and attack.
Old mate swimming the whale carcass out to sea was actually insane for doing so! I couldn’t imagine a more riskier exercise to perform than that if you want to become a statistic. I get he was just trying to help by removing it but dayum!!!
It's strange, isn't it. You'd think someone from a sea-going background such as the samoans would realise how dangerous it was to swim near a food source, and would have just used his boat to di it. It seems such a pointless accident, poor guy
This was not a normal case, I live in Samoa, Dead whales washing up that close to shore are not common, he was inside the reef which hardly ever see large sharks as they tend to stay in the deep past the outer reef, most encounters with big sharks are with spear fisherman past the reef and there has been hardly any bites or fatalities over recorded history, if he had help maybe he could have used a canoe, I think it was just a bit of complacency on Malaeulu's part as this is a very rare event and not expecting a large shark to swim past the reef/waves, rest in peace. Apparently the shark was a hammerhead.
@@lostinsamoa oh wow, I live in Australia and whilst there are plenty of big hammerheads all over the place here, I believe that this is the first fatality by a hammerhead that I’ve ever heard of!
As humans, I don't believe sharks mistake us for 'food' when they attack. We ARE food. Why wouldn't we be? And we're plentiful in their environment, swimming around, enjoying the water...they communicate with one another, which is why shark attacks seem to be increasing. They KNOW there's a buffet near shore! We are meat, and that's what they want/need. The Popov video is one of the most gut-wrenching things I've ever watched. Absolutely heartbreaking. I grew up near the Atlantic Ocean and spent many summers cooling off in its waters. That was then, this is now and I'll take my cool down in the pool, thankyewverymuch.
@@reneesantiago6496 No, it's staying about the same. What is increasing is how many sharks humans kill each year. It's tragic when anyone dies like this, but the reality is that when you enter the water, you know the risk. It's no different to race drivers getting in a car and the danger there, stick and ball sports and the danger there or the statistically most likely think that can kill you on the list, driving to work.
@@ppo2424 8 billion ppl don’t swim in the ocean. It’s not nothing to those who died, are permanently maimed or lost a loved one. To them its something, something terrible that ruins lives.
I didnt think shark attacks happend very often. Im shocked at the ammount of people that have lost their lives. What a way to go. Im terrified of open water, no sharks getting me 😢😢😢❤❤
@@YampaYak-vd1xo Next time you get in the water just ask yourself three questions - how far away is the nearest shark, is there anything between me and it, is it watching me right now?
shark simps like to say shark attacks are just ''so rare'' and sharks are just ''misunderstood'' creatures. lol. shark attacks don't happen as often as other animal attacks cuz WE DON'T LIVE IN THE WATER!! that's the only reason. just like plane crashes happen less often than car crashes, cuz there's less planes in the sky, but planes are infinitely more dangerous.
as a family friend of stella that one hit hard, as i swim in that river and area frequently and have done something similar chasing dolphins out into the swan.
I was told that if you see a school of dolphins around you that you were safe from being attacked by sharks. A school of dolphins can easily take out a shark. I guess that advice is not valid.
3:48 The attack was a bull shark & happened in front of my apartment on Doepel St North Fremantle. The shark (they think the same) was caught further up the river a couple of days later….3 metres. Terrifying 😢
Constantly showing people feeding sharks is so pathetically stupid that it’s unspeakable. Do not feed sharks and expect them to not associate food with people. Sharks can definitely tell the difference between a man in a wetsuit and a seal. I am 70 years old and I spent my entire life surfing swimming scuba, diving snorkeling, and otherwise being in the ocean. How do I mention fishing also. I like watching the shark videos, but I get sick and tired of seeing people feed sharks that’s just as stupid as feeding bears, or alligators.
When you enter someone's house, pay respects. The ocean is not our home or there for our fun. What we gather is a natural harvest with luck. It is their place.
@@paulietv2162 We should be respectful in the ocean. Sharks don't need to eat us at all. They just eat. However, they have the mentality of a wild dog. If they are hungry they will eat your flesh if you are there. A killer whale has almost the mentality of a human. It will target the shark's liver specifically. Communicate with dialect. Organise a hunt to precision. And, consciously drag a clown to the bottom of a pool while in captivity, only to release the clown just before they drown. A shark eats. A whale thinks more than most humans....
@@paulietv216210 people are killed on average by shark attacks with probably one or two people being eaten, it’s not even a factor to consider when entering the sea
Nope, these cases are not really mistaken identies. Many shark species are opportunistic hunters who also take what is easily available, and through stupid behavior/misconduct, humans have often made themselves easy prey for sharks.
I agree completely, in fact I'll take it a step further @ say that since sharks can feel the electro magnetic fields from our bodies,including being able to hear ( sense ) our heart beats, our smell, the way we move in the water @ the taste/ smell of human blood versus fish blood etc. I sincerely believe that sharks know exactly what they are hunting/ attacking. Yes, they're are territorial attacks but that's to drive something away, not consume it. After the 1st bite of they come back for a 2nd bite, the human has become the meal, and what a fine meal we make! Pretty much helpless in the water, we have neither tooth nor claw @ after one hour are usually injured to the point that our swimming is compromised. We are a floating meat bag, almost like bait. I think feeding sharks is one of the most stupid things humans have ever done as just like with crocs @ gators @ other top predators, it conditions them to expect food from humans. Bottom line, we are at their mercy @ in case nobody's noticed... they have none.
More great coverage on shark attacks, Kevin. I really appreciate the coverage this channel does on shark attacks. 🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈 As for Diego Barria, I think he walked into the water and got swept out. The shark that attacked Mr Popov was heavily pregnant.
@@TrackingSharks Youre welcome.🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈 BTW, incase you didn't know Kevin, apart from Popov's remains, nothing else was found in that sharks stomach. So it was probably extremely hungry. And, on top of that, she had to feed her developing embryos. So it consumed popov out of a desperate need for food.
I also read that she was starving and pregnant there is a real problem with overfishing in the Red sea. Also where the attack happened was next to a steep drop off.
@@celtgirl7791 Yes. The lack of food can really affect the behavior of a shark. And water temperature can affect a sharks metabolism. Warmer water can raise a sharks metabolism, making it need to consume more food to survive.
Lol! Have you consulted your crystal ball? From a scientific point of view alone, it only makes sense to evaluate cases where the culprit is known. Speculation belongs in the realm of fake facts.
@@bovverFS from a scientific view your comment makes no sense. Since it is a *given* that we will never, under any circumstance, know everything that happens in nature.
@@jbb8261 Absolutely, Sciences is based on facts, assumptions . Of course it makes sense. Assumptions remain assumptions as long as they are scientifically proven. What you say are just assumptions (from your crystal ball?), not scientifically proven facts. And logically we don't know everything, but that's why they're not facts, just assumptions. All I can tell is that you don't know anything about science.
@@bovverFS the fact that you’re bringing up Crystal balls means you know less about science than me, Buddy. Good luck with that. There are shark attack victims who are never found or reported and you need to cope with that. Quit with this crystal ball bullsh*t
Chris Davis was killed by a bull shark. I have a friend in New Caledonia and he has the footage of the belly contents of the bull and tiger shark they caught as well as the footage from him coming ashore and the injuries he sustained. He was already unconscious, if not dead when he hit the beach.
Swimming a dead wale away isn’t a good idea. These rare shark attacks and the way many victims are repeatedly bitten/ consumed prove all of these so called experts as wrong.
"Rare" shark attacks = 1 attack every few years is rare. Several attacks in 1 year is not rare. South Australia alone has had 3 fatal attacks in 2023. That's not rare.
They really dont. They haven't interacted with humans enough as a prey item to target people. But sharks will attack anything in the right circumstance. They're aggressive predatory animals. If you go into their territory you put yourself at risk. Especially If you look like their prey. Or if theyre starving
We are training sharks to come to boats...by luring with food for cage dives, scientific experiments....or just tossing food scraps/fish remains. What a surprise...sharks have learnt that boats mean food. Of course they are going to come towards human and mechanical noise...we are training them to do that.
Can someone please tell me why when I watch shark week or the news on tv they never ever say things like the body was consumed or the shark bit of the persons head when in fact that’s what really happened?
Cos tourism, no vacation spot or beach wants to be known as the beach where the mans head was bitten off, or being consumed alive by a big fukin shark in other instances People are stupid and don't talk to locals or heed there advice, instead they listen to the girl at reception desk at the flash resort on whats safe and what isn't
stop watching cnn or msnbc. fox news is better than those news stations. biden is the worst president in us history and its really not even close. get out of here you clown this is a shark video @@Footielad560
I hate when people say “oh, they just take a curious bite they don’t want to eat you”. Tell that to the Russian kid. That tiger shark wanted to eat every part of him.
These are only the fatal ones that we know of even. Consider someone swimming alone. You are just gone and will not be reported as consumed, simply missing. As soon as you are dragged beneath the surface it's a very silent death.
So they can’t tell the difference between us and seals but you expect me to believe they’ll notice a BA facing them to scare them off or for them to be able to see it?
Theres a lot more shark attacks around Australia than what's being told , practically every popular beach area has had a shark attack their not as rare as told ,
@@mellamodiego8458 We are saying there is much more confirmed attacks that are not made public. This video only details public confirmed attacks. Just because it's not officially recorded or not made public does not mean the shark attack didn't happen or the person's life didn't matter.
@@wattsy6303 of course....these are just DEATHS that are reported there are much more attacks....that dont cause death this video deals with the deaths that were reported end of story
Iive in the shark attack capital of the world. Aka Cocoa Beach florida. I was standing in knee high water with my 6 year old son when i came 6feet away from a 7 foot shark. It was chasing bait fish in. it was at Lori wilson beach. I will NEVER swim in the ocean again. When i tell you i was scared. Well thats an under statement. However i absolutely love sharks and respect them.
We are effing up the ocean .. it’s unbalanced like the rest of the world .. this is and will take affect on the sea animals .. one being sharks .. over fishing .. toxins in the ocean … lots of issues
Black wet suits don’t cause you to be more likely to be bit. That’s what they used to think but bright colors are more likely to attract attention. Bright yellow, bright orange and white. The best wet suits are the one ones that blend in with the water.
When I was younger, I saw the beach as this huge world pool that everyone from all over the world can go and have fun with friends and family. Until, I saw the movie "JAWS" I was never the same again. I just look at the water from the sand and watch everyone in the water. My family has no idea that I am actually looking for sharks fins the entire time and my anxieties are at a level 1 million. I stand for hours just to make sure everyone is okay. I would rather watch the water then go into the water. We are taking a huge risk going into the ocean because the sharks will evicted us with their mouths at anytime. A risk I am not willing to take. Thanks for this video.
Loving the factual accounts of these attacks you bring us, brother! Great channel, so much better than other dross attack channels like Final Affliction, Sharks Happen and Sharks Beware. Keep rocking those stories out!
@@rockyevans1584 Nah, Sharks Happen is rubbish, the guy knows nothing about sharks and has tried to make his lack of success political. Sharks Beware is just complete fiction and Final Affliction, whist being well-intentioned isn't much better researched than Sharks Happen. This channel is well-researched, non-sensationalist and to the point, even if the tone of voice is slightly monotonous. Much better quality than all the others.
@Footielad560 this one reminds me of final affliction, just less of the silly attempted drama. Agreed that the politics were tiresome, and it's not saying much but I'd still put sharks happen well above the quality of these other shark attack channels. Feel like it's more concise than this channel, and this dude made a couple mistakes speaking that I found really annoying.
@@rockyevans1584 We'll have to disagree there, the Sharks Happen fella is super long-winded and doesn't stick to the facts, even when he is not opining in my opinion. Final Affliction is flowery and gets a lot of her details wrong. Tracking Sharks is concise and straight to the point, not great to listen to because of the AI type monologue but no crappy fishing stories or baseless assumptions either.
Official figures suppose that about 80 shark incidents per year occur with an average of 5 fatalities per year. I guess 2023 has been a particularly bad year! 16 or 17 fatalities that we know about. Lets see if this trend continues in 2024 or not and that will give us an idea if this increase is the new norm! RIP to all the souls loss!
I have been so intrigued by sharks. I've watched Shark Week since it started in 1992. I watch all things shark. Also, just a heads up, the "J" is silent in Jimenez.
A big great white has a much more powerful bite that a crocodile,so the power of these things cannot be understated. And I am sure millions of years of evolution can make them know the difference between a human and a seal. If they see an opertunity for food they will take it.🙏
The person who went to rescue Tod Gendle was incredibly stupid. If it's the case I am thinking of, he tried to take the shark out after the attack and put his own safety in danger. The Stella Berry one was also strange. They were saying for a while that it could have been a Tiger. Someone I know who lived in that area for a while before moving over here to Queensland said he suspects it more likely be a bull. In all this though, we still kill millions of sharks a year. If you enter the water, you know the risk. You can't put an end to a shark because you entered their domain and got attacked. You're more likely to be killed going outside your own house.
As Always great information about these attacks although very tragic it seems all to more often occurrence now, something has changed in the way these sharks hunt. I dont know but i think over fishing and tourist shark feeding hasn't helped. They are hungry and associate food with humans, boats and we are the slower prey but don,t quote me on that. Just a theory
=more people in the water,Sharks are learning because they are not stupid,their sensory array is just phenomenal,they are opportunistic predators.we are taking out their fish supplies on an unsustainably HUGE level.Stands to all logical reason really. Shame.
Back in the days of jaws the beaches was crowded and attacks un herad of. Today its a rare that anyone brave enough to enter the ocean gets back out alive..
I fail to see how White Sharks confuse humans for seals when they can hunt by detecting a target's electronic signiture. I also don't believe they'd be fooled by something so slow moving & inadequate in the water.
@josephsalmonte4995 My theory is the shark species has developed a taste for humans. Apparently we’re delicious! Humans have become “chickens of the sea” in more ways than one.
You are playing a lottery, don't fool yourself. Tyna Webb did her ocean swim for 17 years, no issues with sharks. After 17 years, one day got killed in one of the worst attacks on record. And yes, they are ATTACKS, not "incidents". Quite disrespectful to the loved ones grieving. Sharks are deadly apex predators that hunt and attack.
Can we please have a video on the rarity of shark attacks and how, in fact, humans kill sharks at a rate that does not come even close to the fatality of shark attacks against humans!
Use drones to spot large sized sharks and use some sort of alerting system like hanging a flag on shore to alert swimmers of the shark's presence or prior sighting.
Hola no speak inglish pero te hizo falta otro ataque de tiburón blanco de nuevo en sonora México 29 de diciembre pescador de callo de hacha paso lo mismo con el de 5 de enero😢....

Muchas gracias por el nuevo video!!! También ví una entrevista de un buzo de sonora el día 4 de enero del 2023, advirtiendo sobre la presencia de un tiburón, el buzo dió la entrevista de lo que a él le pasó, sobrevivió a un ataque en días pasados advirtiendo que por esos días no buzos en el agua, pero no hicieron caso a esa advertencia pues al día siguiente mato a un buzo que le decían el meño le arrancó los hombros y la cabeza, yo ví ese relato de ese buzo de como escapo del tiburón, espero lo puedan encontrar la página del facebook es SP en directo ahí van a encontrar las noticias de los ataques y la entrevista que les comenté del día 4 de enero 2023.....
For a minute in the beginning I thought you were going to be straight cold blooded playing "When the Man Comes Around" by Johnny Cash in the background of the video.
"It's rare", they say... but not rare enough, in my opinion. 17 fatal attacks. Let's not forget that much more not fatal attacks, many with permanent disabled outcomes, and eternal psychological scars.
Three things I learned that I (don't) hope come in handy one day-- Don't pee in water sharks swim in, avoid jewelry, and remember a gopro around your head is a big invitation to boop it from a shark
No mencionaste el ataque dej joven Cameron en las Bahamas en junio durante su viaje de graduación, se arrojó al agua para cumplir un reto y no lo encontraron.
He was eaten on film by at least 2 sharks that I could see and possibly a third. Horrific. They’re lying about him being missing to keep from scaring tourists.
@@toscadonna Nobody lied about him being missing, Donna. The question is whether he died from shark attack or drowning. I think shark attack but there is no proof either way.
Hahaha you said on the second story “as the man appeared to bite the shark”! With that much trauma to his helmet as well as his machine Mr barria obviously hit something. Sometimes you see these huge trees on the beach that have washed up. He could’ve hit something like that at an extreme speed and then the tide carry’s the tree back out. Cause an atv caught in the surf wouldn’t do that much damage. If his helmet was messed up that bad I seriously doubt he could’ve taken it off! But as much damage as that machine has it looks like it was thrown off a cliff and hit every rock on the way down!
