In this footage, captured just last weekend, I record a couple of great white shark encounters. One of those encounters leaves me lost for words as the shark gets incredibly close to surfer unaware the shark is there. I also record two different sharks taking an interest in ocean debris. One shark engages with a floating Pepsi carton. The difference in interest from the smaller shark and the larger shark is most interesting.
Special thanks to Alison Towner for advising me on observational behavior within the video.

It blows my mind how often we are so close to these majestic yet ultimately extremely dangerous animals and yet they don’t attack.

@lola2829 3 года назад

I think its how if we as humans have food in front of us but are not hungry, we’re not gonna eat so why would the shark? None the less I’d be shitting my pants if I saw a shark irl

@betofernandez5524 3 года назад

@@lola2829 They don't hunt humans. That is very clear with all the info we have. A starving shark would? Probably. But not only a Shark, any meat eater with a proper size would. It's muuuuuch more likely to be attacked by any land predator. When one shark attacks a surfer, or swimmer (very very rare) it's probably an accident between them. I'm thinking in a nervous or afraid shark mainly. It's more common (still rare) an attack diving with them, because divers can annoy the shark. And they do, many times, with brainless interactions... But I have not seen yet any hunting behaviour in those warnings you can see in few videos tbh. Even with agressive animals. Now, go the the african savanna and walk arround next to lions, for example. You can do it after they have eaten if you want, to prove that point. I would never do that xD. We are not on the diet of sea predators. We never shared those ecosystems with them (just few hundreds of years and not really in the water). In the other hand we evolved from african hominids and we allways have been in the same areas than those big cats. We have been during millions or at least thousands (in the last territories we arrived) of years in the mainland, with all those animales. Big cats, crocs, bears, no matter which one. Even the herbivores are much more dangerous. I'm thinking in hippos. Or deers, that kill arround 100 people each year only in US, for example. We have been their prey, their competitors or both during all that time. Now we are just their destroyers... We should help and save all the wildlife we still have in the planet.

@willybeama1 3 года назад

Agreed. I was in New England swimming and lifeguards told us to get out of water because gw sharks were feeding on the seals. I couldn’t believe I was in water with them. Needless to say that was the first and last time. I wade in the water and that’s it.

@augustmoon0004 3 года назад

First, these are juvenile great whites, they don’t feed on mammals just yet until they reach about 10 feet. So these interactions are just curiosity. Second, any predatory animal species instinctively understands the size of the prey they can/prefer to feed on. I understand marine biologists are trying to mend the often terrifying reputation of these apex predators, but the reality is, if a mature great white is hungry, and it senses edible prey (yes, humans too) who’s unaware of the shark’s presence (they prefer sneak attacks to avoid injury), then it will bite and consume a human. The reason most incidents don’t result in full consumption is because after the initial attack, they circle, waiting for the prey to weaken and bleed out (avoiding injury). In this time, unlike seals, etc, humans often get rescued and brought to shore.

Visual effects from JAWS the music etc. True terror. I can't even force myself to go in a dark deep lake. I'm even scared while sitting on a blow up intertube. And someone yells shark like my friends im done for. I'm even paranoid in our local outdoor swimming pool.... I have never been in the ocean. Never been outta WI. and I don't plan to.

Fantastic footage MalibuArtist! Great to show the shark had zero interest in that surfer. Interesting stuff with the pollution there as well. We know sharks are highly curious animals, and will investigate floating debris like this. It's also why we believe sharks often get entangled in certain types of debris, their curious nature will bring them in close contact with it, for example nets/plastic debris. Fortunately these two debris items in the video don't pose much risk from an entanglement perspective, but its a great demonstration of how sharks can eventually become entangled in pollution!

A Shark-Warning alarm with Flashing White LED's on top of the drone is such a brilliant & novel idea. The operator can choose to activate the audio, the visual, or they can opt to activate both warnings simultaneously. Imagine every popular beach having its own drone combing the busy surf from Dawn til dusk, monitoring the nearby sharks without causing a panic. This type of monitoring would help beach-goers and surfers to better understand this predatory animal in the common places of cohabitation. Drones will forever change human/shark interaction the same way that online-purchasing has evolved the concept of "shopping." It seems so ironic that the key to understanding the complex nuances of life beneath the water would come from just above the waves... Great video!

Great idea about a drone that could warn surfers and swimmers. I've been surfing for over 50 years and it makes me wonder how many close encounters I've been oblivious to. Great vids by the way.

A warning system would be really usefull in some scenarios! However, I'm thinking if the kid in this video would've started panicking, this video might have been a less peaceful interaction!

Great video and so interesting to watch the sharks behavior. I hope you hear back from the drone company and they work with you. I know if I see your drone at the beach to be extra aware, my daughter knows now too! 😉👍
