The males often bite the females as a means of gaining their attention and gripping onto the female during the mating process. The bites are much more gentle than a feeding bite but often cause superficial wounds which result in scars.
@Neuroterror Rex An obvious joke? Come on try it again! You want to write about capitalization? Show me the mistake! Are you seriously trying to find out my mind because "What" at the begin? Lol! By the way, my native language is German. Maybe you want to battle me on my "territory". Finally, what is the joke when you compare different animals? Are you 10 years old?
Can we appreciate the fact that the shark from the first Jaws movie that was so terrifying was 20/25 feet, and Deep Blue is almost 22 feet... I know sharks aren't the monsters portrayed in Jaws, but the point is that they used that size because it was considered bigger than these fish would ever grow.
The terrifying part is that you won't feel much for very long. Your body will quickly go into shock just like any other prey item. That is however, if such a thing actually happened. Fortunately, great whites don't hunt humans. This video is evidence of that.
@@cathyheston3029 Sharks have a very complex system to identify other creatures. They fell the watermovement, they feel electricity, and they also have good eyes. In clear water, there is no way that they attack you if you do not misbehave.
@Franz Days it isn't what the average American expects.. It's what we get because our TV programs are all part of our capitalist system. It's all about that profit baby. The cheaper it is to make, the better. It fucking sucks. And nobody here expects or even likes it.
There is a good reason for that....even deep blue is literally half the weight of a bull elephant seal! If she gets caught out and meets said seal....she's dead! It takes a group of orcas a good while to take out a lone bull seal.....a solitary great white has no chance
@@plug6038 no great white sharks do hunt bull elephant seals. With the hit and run tactics they’ve taken down seals larger than they are, on their own.
@@sammyxv7020 no they don't....if you can attach a single link of this occurrence I'll glady be proved wrong. But you won't because it's never been documented for the reasons I stated
What next “Real sharks of Guadalupe”? Discovery, way to shoot for the lowest common denominator and to sensationalize the crap out of these beautiful animals.
Am i the only one who thinks those hollywood sound effects are annoying as hell? I mean, come on this is not Lord of the Rings. Have a little more class
I cant help but wonder if all this over dramatization of everything is one of the reasons why Americans seem to be scared all the time and see 'aggression' everywhere.
Hell yes, I would much rather hear whatever the microphone is actually picking up. I am to the point of just turning off videos that add needless (and usually awful) music. Distracting, unpleasant crap, if your information is worth presenting, "guitar fills" are totally unnecessary. Unless it IS a music video, an instructional video on MAKING music or a movie clip which included music originally? DON'T ADD CRAP MUSIC TO YOUR VIDEO.
Wow! That shark was swimming so freakin fast. It definitely shows that we really don’t have a chance if a great white wants to eat you. I did not know they were that fast! 💙💙
Its crazy how a shark as big as deep blue can still hunt and kill a massive, yet fast and agile seal. I mean, she's carrying great white pups and it's already massive... incredible how she can still move like that
@@Soldier9811 yes, so hard in fact that it takes a team of scientists waiting around for weeks with multi-million dollar equipment. 🤣 Which is probably why they didn't get footage of the target shark. Don't you think if they faked it, they would've faked Deep Blue attacking rather than a shark with a malformed tail? 🤦♀️
Absolutely breathtaking, words cannot describe the awe and beauty of these sharks. Predators in their prime doing what they’ve been doing for millions of years. Stunning.
I really hope to see offspring from deep blue.. If they continue building a database for DNA,for the white shark,they can potentially build a "family" tree.. I'd be so interested in following her offspring..Cool vids..
Im no shark expert by any means, but it didnt look like the beautiful Deep Blue. That girl is HUGE and has very particular markings ....and every vid Ive seen of her, they always say she's pregnant so she's been pregnant for years now lol. An interesting vid though, they sure have mean power and speed going on.
i don’t understand why people always complain of the music. as a youtube myself i put music into my videos to give them a “theme.” videos without music seem like they’re missing something and seem more dull.
@@maddiemarlenemakeup8372 It is because of that kind of music makes videos like this sound so fucking exaggerated dramaful and pathetic. Sometime no or just quiet music makes more effect. Esp. in clips about animals.
Elephant seals are enormous, oceangoing earless seals in the class Mirounga. The two species, the northern elephant seal and the southern elephant seal, were both pursued extremely close to eradication before the finish of the nineteenth century, yet their numbers have since recuperated. They are the biggest surviving carnivorans
Show: “We are going to watch a shark hunt an elephant seal” Also show: “We just got to see a ‘seal eye view’ of an attack using our bullcrap equipment.”
So this is the third video of Deep Blue that i see, some of those videos are 5 years apart and it seems that Deep Blue is pregnant every single time she is sighted. What are the odds that the same shark, which also happens to be the biggest living shark ever seen by us humans, is pregnant every single time she is sighted, even if she isn't seen for 5 years. Could it be that she simply is just that big?
I like how she took three test bites of the camera, realized it wasn't food, then head-butted it on her way out! Like she was passed off that it wasn't dinner! XD
The speed and power is, to use an oxymoron, beautifully terrifying. The incredible thing about this incredible footage, is that it still won't deter some people from swimming with these killing machines. Watching this footage just makes me think of Simon Nellist (RIP) and how he never stood a chance (I hope he expired immediately and didn't suffer).
There were 3 sharks shown in this video. Deep blue was the 1st one. The 2nd was mentioned as a male and the 3rd with the mangled tail is a female named Lucy.
Always good to see the girl do it her way! (If your wonderin, i've been a deep blue fan ever since she was first discovered) also talk about a modern megalodon!
That tag totally messes up her camouflage. Not good, researchers! Deep Blue and/or any great white should be fairly invisible when they are under their prey; their dark coloring on the upper side of their bodies ensures this. That bright white tag tube stands out like a beacon. This could prevent her from being a dynamic and efficient hunter. Bad move...bad judgment by researchers. Ugh.
That's interesting! I hope so. Sharks are so important, and I know of so many instances where human interference (even with good intent) has done more damage than good. Thanks for the post, James.
Lol...you were offended by the word troll....but didn't even acknowledge the entire misquote. You didn't disagree with me, you either misquoted me or you lied about my comment. I will let you review all of the above (to find where I even mentioned the word "unprofessional") to decide where you went wrong, but I am done with the trolling...which is what posting with misquotes or misinformation or lies actually is. To James who responded to my initial concerned post with intellectual discourse, I thank you.
I like how the Shark Mounts upon the scene in front of the camera and then disperses and the way it merges away like an SUV in Neutral. It is so amazing in such a style how the Camera captures it in such a way, And the Intelligence of Great Whites.
These sharks are all crippled and broken...Deep Blue has a large hole in her right flank and that second shark they filmed attacking the camera had it's tail badly mutilated; It is a miracle that it could even swim fast enough to hunt at all. I would like to think that these injuries were caused by other sharks but It is more likely that a boat propeller was the culprit.
B. Lung they can still hunt as sharks heal quickly they also have thick skin almost like armour so most things they can't feel just like that jab when they tagged it
B. Lung well the tail has probably healed to its maximum capacity which now it can not heal no more and that it is usable to thrive itself through the water but I get your point
Damien Darlington well tbh if you have watched other shows like this the. They would have said the same thing that the shark doesn't feel it but if so they would only feel a small jab but not pain as they have thick skin
@@cathyheston3029 ffs one of the documentaries was a fictional hunt for the megaladon. They stated it was not real in small print in the credits but they advertised it as if it was a serious and real documentary. You don’t have to be able to do better in order to call something out for its bullshit. Most modern documentaries aren’t nearly as quality as they used to be.
Well she probably one of the oldest shark in the ocean probably half the sharks In the ocean is related to her in the way since every time people see her she's pregnant
Edwin Jimenez yeah until they invent a 44mag that shoots underwater I'm not getting in there! Soon as your in that shit you drop down on the food chain drastically!!
I saw a shark named Alice do the same thing 20 years ago off the coast of northern CA. It was filmed by students studying great white predation on surfers, they used a camera attached to a surfboard but the shot looked almost identical.
