Shark Divers are people who study, photograph, interact with and even wrestle with some of the most terrifying creatures on earth. A select group of skilled professionals routinely work with, or near the animals out in the wild and in aquariums. This feature-length documentary focuses on this diverse and eclectic group - each with different motives in their unusual fields. Some are adrenaline junkies and many are staunch conservationists. Together, they form a community of people fascinated by sharks. Their enthusiasm (and fear) can be highly contagious! Learn all about the shark divers and the diverse group of graceful and powerful creatures they study - the tiger, lemon, mako, whale and the legendary great white sharks. Shark Divers gets up close and personal with the sharks and divers to share their passion and debunk the myth of the cold-blooded, man-eating shark.

I believe that sharks being exposed to humans through especially cage diving and "shark tours" where they chum the waters causes sharks to associate humans with food.

@tonidukeman4591 Год назад

I agree! They shouldn’t be chumming these sharks with humans in the water. The sharks come to depend on being fed and yes, associating humans with food.. it can also make the sharks more aggressive.

@shrutefarms4741 10 месяцев назад

It’s not if…it’s when these dives will turn deadly. Chumming tigers for an adrenaline junkies thrill is not for conservation , it’s for a chemical jolt to to the divers. Be honest about why you’re doing it and just be ready for serious consequences and don’t be surprised when one of your divers doesn’t come back.

@geekbabe100 Год назад

And this is why swimming pools were invented 😱

@j.g.9271 Год назад

Chumming from a boat teaches sharks that boats bring food, revving the boat engine is the dinner bill. Sharks have learned that people are food too especially in a frenzy. Irresponsible behavior.

I've seen lemon sharks in the Bahamas 🇧🇸 as a teenager and thanked the Lord for the blessing of a lifetime. Also dove in the Galápagos and saw black tipped sharks. Thank you Eli Martinez and all conservation divers who are so brave and willing to capture footage. Sharks are beautiful and they play a vital role in any ecological niche. We need to save them by not fishing for them. Marvel at their beauty because along with the crocodile they are a living dinosaur who's evolved near the top of the pecking order in our beautiful oceans and seas.

@nickd3157 2 года назад

You can find black tipped reef sharks here in America, go to Florida and fish (DO NOT ENTER THE WATER) on Mexico beach, Mexico beach is close to Panama City beach, takes about 45 minutes to get there from PCB, just bottom fish from the shore and you will catch juveniles, Mexico beach is home to the worlds largest shark estuary (currently known largest estuary), you will find many shark species here in abundance, although swimming at the beach is strongly discouraged.

@stephencook7337 2 года назад

Yup. Those string of attacks in the Red Sea nearly ten years ago were caused by sharks that were fed by hand days prior to the attacks in another location. The victims were bitten on the hands and hips: places the sharks associated with the people holding or storing fish.

I find it weird that they say in the beginning that ' if this sport has gone to far', and they talk about these divers getting bitten by sharks, at the same time as they show ppl constantly touching them or hanging from their fins, which is the exact thing you should not do, LEARN TO RESPECT THEM!

@endangerdenglish 2 года назад

I totally agree with you. Wild animals should be observed and not interacted with. Plus humans should not feed sharks for the same reason people shouldn't feed bears, it habituates the animal into associating humans with food, see the horrific result of this in 2010 in Sharmel Sheik in Egypt.

@curioushoodie 11 месяцев назад

Totally agreed. I had to turn it off because I got sick of the narrator playing up the danger angle. "A handful of divers survived a shark attack" is so out of context bordering inaccurate. Shark bites are rare in the first place and even rarer that someone dies from it! This fear mongering is not helping the conservation effort at all.

@TheSparklyBeader87 Год назад

When an animal repeatedly bumps your camera, it is informing you to get out of its territory. That should be respected by divers, lest a stronger message like an actual bite is required to get the message across. Hopefully, as long as it is safe, taking children in cages to see the sharks in their habitat, will help build future conservationists.

@katiea2487 10 месяцев назад

@baronblahblah2396 2 месяца назад

I love the footage and enthusiasm those shark biologists have for the ocean, I’m not sure habitual feeding of sharks in & around the same location is a good idea, It’s basically the same theory as shark cages! Those sharks will associate humans with feeding and food, perhaps other snorkeling or recreational divers, swimming with attract sharks and they will expect food, and if those unlucky people have no chum or fish guts on hand, they might become very interested in the people in the water. The problem with tiger sharks is they have both gripping teeth and cutting teeth all in each tooth plus tiger sharks love to head shake and bite & roll, great whites have bottom gripping teeth and upper cutting teeth, both are deadly! I’d prefer a great white shark to a tiger any day!

We belong on land and when we go into the ocean we are tresspassing and are no longer the top of the food chain nope we become part of the menu and sometimes people don't understand as horrific as it seems a shark doesn't just blindly swim around looking for people to eat ,it just doesn't happen, but every now and then under curtain circumstances and odd accurances a shark will attack human's so you must know the chance you are taking truly can have deadly consequences.

Eco tourism should be more regulated as well intended as it can be it can be damaging to lots of creatures. Researchers should be the first to get to their job before the animals get bored or stressed!! I also believe we have to rethink what we wear on our bodies that can also damage the flora and forna of the sea beauty companies could be trying to make human skin products that won't do any eco damage. And I do think Eco tourism unchecked could do a lot of damage in itself. As much as we have come a long way but we need to go further before we accidentally kill these creatures off through ignorance. We as humans have to understand that being at the top of the food chain if we kill these creatures we are killing our own chances of survival in the long run. If we are not careful we will only see certain or most creatures either in zoos or aqairiums which would be such a sad testament to our selfishness as humans myself included!!! Of we All try harder together we have a better chance of seeing them in the wild.

No fishing going on but had plenty of places to hide. The shark was right under my feet when I jumped and needless to say the splash I created from the near 15 foot drop created a lot of interest for the animal. Even before my experience with the Bull I knew never to enter the water in early morning or at night especially since Bulls were not the only large sharks on the prowl. There were also Tigers to be worried about too as well as great hammerheads which potentially could be troublesome but every experience I had with giant hammerheads was great . During my time there one of my first orders given was no one from the base was allowed in the water at sunrise or after sunset.
