Well, if there happens to be turbulence on a plane, the seatbelt will prevent you from falling off your seat and hitting your face/body against other seats, the floor, the ceiling, etc.
Actually its proven seatbelts have save lives in plane crashes so maybe learn something before posting something. Clearly the kayak stopped him gettin bit too 🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🧠💨💩
What, lol, you ever see a big cat vanish into seemingly nothing while in a forest? They are on land with us, much worse IMO. A very very small side of me is glad people killed off big cats in populated areas. As much as I hate it, I get it.
"Sometimes that shark, he looks right into ya, right into your eyes. Y’know, the thing about a shark, he’s got lifeless eyes, black eyes like a doll’s eyes. When he comes after ya, he doesn’t seem to be livin’ until he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white, and then - aww, then you hear that terrible high-pitch screamin’, the ocean turns red"
@@BidenOwesMeGasMoney Biden has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the retail price of gasoline. Crude oil is a commodity traded on the International commodities exchange. Presidents/prime ministers, et al, have next to zero influence on the price a barrel of crude oil sells for in the commodities markets. You need to check ya self fo' you wreck ya self. Don't let the facts disrupt your ignorance.
You can tell by how fast and erratically he’s swimming he’s in attack mode. That’s a very hungry shark, and the kayaker is extremely lucky he didn’t get capsized
Bruh the shark swimming calm and is relaxed. 😂. That shark was curious cuz take a look what the dude had... a fishing net and fish. Smh. If the shark was agressive and in for a attack that dude would get dumpt into the water easily.
That shark was rising to take a first bite , that's why it rolled on its side, how many people have had a close up, of a great whites teeth like our kayaker , that was way out of my comfort zone ❤ happy healthy peace ✌️
@Seaworth Don’t kid yourself. When a shark hasn’t caught a seal for a few days, just about anything is on the menu - just like that poor Russian kid who got ate by a tiger shark in Egypt last week. Oh, and sometimes when they take a curiosity bite, it’s usually the initial taste of the wetsuit that repels them - like when they know within a millisecond they are biting into a decoy seal.
I think the guy is lucky. For those that say they are just curious- I tend to agree. However, the bad part of a curious bite tends to kill most ppl from blood loss. You couldnt pay me enough to ride in a kayak in the ocean.
Curious and HUNGRY. They are designed to kill and eat other living things. It’s their function in the ocean. One can never be too sure about any individual shark, dough!
This looks like a juvenile white to me which means it's still eating fish. It seems to have noticed the oar more than anything- could mistake it for a fish but definitely not hunting humans based on this body language imo.
As a fisherman that watches topwater lures get smashed( sometimes going airborne) by fish roughly the same size as the lure I would be terrified in that situation.
I remember the first time I paddle boarded in the ocean.. it's honestly an eery feeling. Very lonely feeling overwhelmed me and I suddenly felt small and vulnerable
Mate, that was a juvenile white pointer letting you know that it didn't want you in his area. He was repeatedly coming back at you. He wasn't curious about taking a test bite, he wanted you outta his waters. If he was bigger you'd have a big problem there.
Sharks actually are fairly sensitive to electromagnetic fields as they use that ability to detect heart beats and find prey, quite recently researchers have figured out that this is the same reason sharks become curious about boats. Possibly his electric equipment might have something to do with the sharks curiosity. Or not
I think that experience either ends your love of kayak'ing or just makes it even more addictive depending on how much you like the feeling of adrenaline ... edited 433 thumbs up thanks guys I thought I was invisible on RU-vid made my day .
Boats are expensive. You need a trailer, insurance, rego and a bunch of other things. Yes, kayaking is considerably more dangerous but it's also much cheaper. Just because you kayak in the ocean doesn't make you an idiot.
Many kayaks have been attacked by great white sharks. Many kayakers have gone missing from such attacks. The risk we take when we enter their home. There are areas in South Africa, south Australia, and both the east and west coast of the USA that I would not recommend kayaking in, especially by yourself.
As much as I love sharks, I never want to find myself in such a situation. Also, it didn't lunge at the kayaker, it checked out his paddle. Hardly the same thing.
@@lulucager3527 when it comes to great whites south Australia is actually quite dramatic being famous for homing some of the biggest and aggressive white sharks in the world .surfers commonly carry screwdrivers in their wetsuits and abalone divers are forced to work in shark proof dive cages
I'm so glad the shark is ok, it was a short call.. He turned back right on time, as soon as he heard the aussie speaking. Thankfully the shark reacted quickly this time.
When I was 18, I did a backpacking trip and 2 random strangers that I had just met at the hostel convinced me to do an unguided kayak tour to a tiny island just off the coast. As soon as we were out in the open water, a rather uneasy feeling overcame me, but I told myself that I was simply exaggerating and that there was nothing to worry about. After watching this video, boy was I right. Never ever would I do this again lol
“After watching this video” - I can send you a video of a man who was hit by a piece of the roof right at the entrance of his house. Maybe you will never leave your house after watching it?
@@ffm_houseI mean he’s right though. Sure you might die but if you do then it was just meant to happen. But the odds are so low. You can’t live your life in fear. Only way it would make sense is if your scared of the ocean and what lies beneath, and if that’s the case, yeah you definitely should not have gone on that trip. I remember I got flipped by a pack of seals off the coast of Vancouver 10 years ago. Was pretty terrifying having to hold on to the back of my friends kayak as he towed me back to shore with me still in the water, but I went back out later that day.
@@taylorcook5238 It attempted a test bite on the oar. Think of them as enormous cats with way too much free time and the only thing they can interact with is their teeth. Usually kills the object of their attention but great whites typically just go "ew" and leave the mangled body to go find something appetizing. ....an oceanic white tipped shark, on the other hand, does not care what you taste likez nor does it care what you are; it's going to eat you.
Kudos to the guy for not freaking out. For me, the second I see the shark I'd have done some high pitched screaming followed by words that would make this video R-rated.
Dude was super unlucky that day. Not only did that shark have a go at his paddle, when he got in to shore he discovered that some wretched stranger had taken a dump in his pants.
Just how fast, easy, casually, calessly it moves in the water underneath the kayak is so amazingly terrifying combinded with how it disappears into the Ocean.
How fast? Can do 45-55 kph in an attack. Was scuba diving and shark comes zipping along ( scuba diver swims 1kph maybe) and stops dead to have a look. Then spins away and takes off. When they stop dead and turn that eye to you- yeah not fun. ( 3m shark)not too big.
@@jasonabcthere’s a video here on YT of a white going insane on a kayak and the person was knocked into the ocean screaming for help as the white thrashes his kayak.
Looks like a juvenile great white, very very inquisitive and working out if the sound the paddle makes hitting the water is a food source in distress. I'm no professional but that's my take on it.
Not sure it applies in this situation but it's suspected that a lot of attacks on Kayaks are territorial as they'll hit the kayak & ignore the rider they dumped into the water in the process
@@jonstanford112 great whites and most sharks in general aren’t territorial. Great whites especially like to travel around and not hang around an area for too long.
Less a lunge and more investigation. The lunge makes it come full out of the water with more than enough force to slam that boat up and over. He's got fishing stuff the shark is just curious.
@CDs you seriously believe that humans aren't food for great white sharks? let me guess you believe that a top tier predator with incredible senses somehow forgets all that and "accidentally" attacks a human.
@@rassoul420 Lets do this. 400 million people go to the beach each year. Practically every coast is shark territory. Isn't it weird that there are only 40-70 attacks if we're their food? Also, not every attack is an accident and there are 2 reasons for this. Great whites and tiger sharks are pretty curious creatures and bite people in a gentle way. People bitten by sharks say they don't even feel the pain. The second reason for attacks are territorial reasons, big sharks are pretty territorial of their kill since other sharks and predators want their food. Now there are some cases where on the occasion they see us as a competitor.The last thing I wanna say is, name one case in like the 20th century where there was an attack from shark where the shark consumed the whole person.
Lunges?? Hardly. Nice clickbait title along with the Jaws-like music. Yes, that would be terrifying but c'mon..it did what Great White sharks do - swim around and check things out and that was the end of it.
Well it didn't swim around and check out Quint in Jaws , it lunged up onto Orca and ate him...That shark was probably gonna " accidentally" knock him into the water.. Shark in the water, you go in the water...fairwell and adieu to you fair Spanish ladies...
Man, you know what is in those waters and yet you get in that little kayak. You are like that guy that decided to go for a swim and got bit in half. Never tempt fate
This guy probably wakes up to shark attacks on the news on a daily basis and still decides to kayak in south Australian ocean - which is worse than the rest of the ocean
That's because sharks are keystone species. Without them the whole ocean ecosystem would collapse and we'd become a threatened species, as in it would affect us as well.
It was clearly interested in the guys paddle.... the shark didn't even lunge at the guy. This is what gives white sharks a bad rep. We also have to remember that we're in their territory when we are in the ocean.
It didn't lunge at the guy but the paddle, sharks get a bad rap, uh huh. I didn't see anyone jumping in that murky water for a lovey-dovey nature encounter with that misunderstood, curious creature.
Only last month a juvenile Great White took a bite out of a kayak off one of Adelaide's suburban beach's, luckily for the young fella in it had plenty of help nearby to get back to shore. So they will have a bite to see if it's food or not...
