@@kurtpunchesthings2411 there was a dead whale and that seems to keep the sharks from attacking the divers because the food is right there. a couple of other divers do it too in the striped suits. just dont be the only food source in the water is my advice. i was in the water surfing awhile back and one came and bit a seal in half a few hundred feet away from me. ive had quite a few encounters with this type of shark and its not fun at all
@@ryancuda45 I've seen divers swimming with sharks all the time, regardless of wether there is food around or not. I suppose they're specifically trained to do that?
@@muhammadeisa1459 depends on the type of shark. Some are best avoided, some aren't interested in humans as food. Rays are cousins of sharks and they have to be treated the same - some attack humans, some don't.
@@zyfyt256 I am so glad I served in the US Armed forces and literally fought against a communist country. It means I don’t give S..t about virtue signaling, projection or any other social justice warrior diatribe or tactics.
I have only seen great white sharks do that when they hunt seals. But jumping back to back doesn't make sense unless it was more than one shark, i didn't see any seals either, sharks are not known to waste much energy but may be this one in particular was being playful.
As terrifying as they are, Sharks are beautiful creatures and in the last 50 years there has been a 70% drop in their population due to our over exploitation. Thanks for having a positive perspective in this vid Ozzy man, they must be protected 😥
@Keilahni MERKLE correction, Nature : Fuck! I failed again! Those humans are way too dumb to be afraid! Need to make something bigger.... Maybe put the fear of Extinct animals in them... I got it! MEGALADON!
In my 20's I worked at a water park where it was my job to get into a 250,000 gallon tank and feed sea turtles, fish, rays, and sharks. I had a favorite shark was a 10+ foot sand tiger I would feed her then lay on the bottom and pet her like a big puppy. People always asked if I was crazy or had a death wish for feeding and petting a shark. I would reply well I do not have a death wish and as far as being crazy I have not been found to be crazy YET. They didn't realize that the shark found the one spot in the whole tank that had a jet stream of water that would flow over her gills allowing her to sleep while I was petting her. I also had a ray trained to take a fish from my regulator so it looked like I was getting a kiss the barb was hanging just over my heart (Stopped this after Steve Erwin was killed. Didn't want to seem disrespectful)
If you mean the lemon shark, you’d be hard pressed to get bitten by one. They were endangered at one point from over hunting because of how docile they are.
Nah he was completely safe, lemon sharks are super friendly. Same with the girl riding the big shark. That's (I think) a grey nurse; they look really terrifying but are actually very docile and completely harmless to people.
00:42 True. And interestingly I have an irrational fear of this happening to me when I go to my bed. When somehow a shark would crawl out of the ocean, take an Uber, find a way to open gates, operate an elevator, pick my locks and hide under my bed to feed from a 12" bony foot at night.
I had no idea Australians feared animals what so ever. You had a relationship with sharks the way New Yorkers had a relationship with sewer rats dragging a slice of pizza up the stairs.
I did the cage free extreme shark dive at Kelly Tarlton's Aquarium in New Zealand. I felt safer because it was in an aquarium, but it was one of the most terrifying things I've done! So glad I did it tho, was super awesome!
That's great! I still don't see the attraction to swim with sharks myself but it's still fun to watch others nearly jump out of their dive suits diving with them.
Swimming in the ocean with a great white shark. Me: "I'd give an arm and a leg to get out of here right now." Shark: "I'll take you up on that offer my good sir."
Even wild nurse sharks are chill with people most of the time, especially the big older ones who know what people are and know their place the young nurse sharks are the ones who might circle you out of curiosity sometimes
I know of a guy with a 25ft boat, who loved fishing. He went out one day with mates, off the coast of Warrnambool and a shark almost as long as the boat kept ramming it. He cut anchor, went back to shore and sold the boat and only fished off the breakwater.
Nick Fanning has been attacked by sharks multiple times. I guess he needs to stop wearing his "lucky ham" when he goes surfing. Courtesy of the late, great Tim Conway.
These guys been around since dawn of time! One attack Ed my old lady he only wanted the fish on the stringer she had it was funny after but it was shit flying terror when it was happening
About that sharks getting evolved thingy, scientists have found a shark that has learnt to walk on the sea bed. It'll not be long before they start coming out on beaches too.
That's already sort of happening. Look up epaulette sharks. They can crawl not only on the sea bed, but can awkwardly clamber on dry land as well, and can survive out of the water for over an hour (at least they top out at only about 3ft (roughly 1m) long).
I love sharks, they are stunning, curious and intelligent creatures, they're the puppies of the sea. They're also terrifying and frankly, the ocean belongs to them and they can keep it, I want nothing to do with any of that. This video had me hunched with anxiety the whole way through, even when I was like "Aww that's Horrdorable."
Thanks for the shark love Ozzy Man! Too many people forget sharks were here first and are essential for the health of our oceans. As a fellow Sandgroper I know how important it is to stop the fear mongering around these majestic and intelligent animals.
