Unless more hostile feeding competition starts with newcomers, this is probably the safest chance to swim with stuffed and satisfied sharks, not looking for a human taste experiment. The food is the best, already.
not the first time sharks swam with people. some say they like being petted on the nose. their like dogs. pet them right and they'll love ya! if their hungry though. stay away.
@@yugiohwarduelist999 think you're referring to Tiger sharks there. There's one diving spot where divers have been feeding them for decades. So theyve become accustomed to people and getting fed. Probably wouldn't try it with normal tiger sharks though
Okay, this managed to aggravate me, and I wasn't even in the water. I can only imagine what it could've been like for the shark. Yeah, we know in this age that sharks aren't the killing machines that people used to believe they were, but they are still wild animals. Almost any animal surrounded by this many people constantly touching it is likely to get a little agitated, or worse, feel threatened. And we all know that a situation with an agitated or threatened animal can turn bad quickly. You can love the animal, but respect it's personal space too.
Lmao If the Shark cared it would have quickly swam away or gotten aggressive. It clearly didn't give af. Sharks aren't soft boys or girls who need to be coddled.
I think an issue with that argument is that a lot of species of sharks are notorious for not having any sense of personal space. Idk about Great Whites, but a lot of this is the case for a lot of requiem and carpet sharks.
That's not Deep Blue IMO....that is another massive female who apparently has been named "Haole Girl". Deep Blue was seen and photographed at the same location, but on a different day. You can see this by the fact that the real "DEEP BLUE" has two large black markings on her white underside....the smaller one, under her "chin" and a second, much larger one, on her belly, located between her two pectoral fins. As you can see, this big girl has no large black markings on her chin or belly. This is wonderful and amazing footage, but this particular shark is not DEEP BLUE.... "Haole Girl" though, as she has been named is just as awe-inspiring. Please stop misidentifying the wrong shark, now that we know this particular one was not DEEP BLUE (who was there at a different time, seen by others) Re-check the sources and update.
@@aniket33591 yes, the very deep circular gouge on the right side near the anal fin, was very deep and was very fresh when she was videod in 2013 or so. That wound would have definitely healed by now, but it would have left a very very noticeable round scar. and also, the 3-4 large rake markes/gouges on her left side, about equal with her dorsal fin, are not present. i have seen the other picture of the "confirmed" pic of Deep Blue, but it is still too far away for me to see. i am not questioning if they saw her i'd just like to see it with my own eyes.
Aniket Sengupta .......I agree with you after watching other videos of " Deep Blue" that this shark was not her based on the scars and wound when deep blue was originally located and I believe she ( the famous shark diver) stated it was deep blue for click bait ( no pun intended) to attract people to view her videos. Then in another video still titled " deep Blue" again for click bait she revealed she is waiting for confirmation from the doctor scientist who discovered deep blue first. Now the fact is, this is still a impressive massive sized female shark I feel is smaller than deep blue but I am not sure how much smaller. I can tell visually this one is though if you compare this one to the video of deep blue swimming near vertically along the divers cage. Still a impressive find. What bothers me more, this lady and her team stated they were just diving and came across this shark when the fact is a group of fisherman located the shark eating on the whale carcass and reported the size of it. This lady and her team are out here taking credit in areas they did not do at all which frankly pisses me off that they are lying but on the other note, regardless of their lies on all of this, it truly was some nice video they captured of this other massive female white shark.
The shark didn’t attack because it probably knows that at its size, the “bait” would be too meaningless. Something that massive eats things larger than people. It knows that it would maybe snag one person and everyone else would scatter. They are extremely smart killing machines. Why go after a squirrel when you can have a nice big chunk of steak out of a whale?
Great point. It's borderline hilarious how some people suggest a massive Great White was somehow intimidated by divers. It would be like your obese aunt Cynthia being chased away by toddlers at a McDonald's. That shit ain't happening.
Imagine you're just swimming around the ocean peacefully minding your buisiness and an annoying ass group of human jumps all over your back... rubbing ur neck and fin, ugh 🤢🤮😖
When it comes to deep blue allowing herself to be touched its fascinating to say the least. But lets not over do it and let her live in peace with as minimal disturbance as possible in her natural habitat.
When someone visits a national park, they observe the animal and do their utmost to not interfere with the animal - yet these divers feel the urge to ride the shark?!? Regardless of whether it attacks them or not, there should be a universal marine etiquette, just as there is bush etiquette. Observe and that’s it, don’t feed, ride, shout, touch or harass any wild animals in their environment.
People have to touch everything don’t they. Bloody children.” Ooh I’ve touched it, that makes it more real” stop touching wild animals you pathetic hippies. People are their own worst enemy
Exactly and if Ocean Ramsey is really a marine biologist she shouldn’t be practicing touching or riding the shark. Any Scientist would want to study but still act in the best interest of the animal.
totally different environment. It's like if you're in the country side, you may wave to a farmer across the road. In the city, you may high five someone busting a dance move on the sidewalk. The ocean's creatures mingle quite a bit.
I'd be more worried about the Oceanic Black Tip and Bullshark more than Deep Blue. They're extremely territorial. Deep Blue is a cool ole granny, who still gets knocked up apparently, at the ripe age of estimated 50.
people need to remember that sharks are still predators. yes, you can swim with a shark without getting attacked. it doesn't mean it never will attack you. it has a brain and free will, so it's capable of attacking you regardless of whether or not you're in its food chain. being around sharks that are feeding is dangerous in the same way that its dangerous to be around lions or wolves that are feeding. if an animal has a mechanism to harm you with, it can harm you with that mechanism. even something like a male deer can be dangerous if you're careless.
They may not consider people to be food, but in that case they're quite likely to consider you to be competition for that whale carcass, It's not bright to get close to them when they're eating
"They don't give a shit about you". Believe it or not but they are well aware of us and very curious. Some are actually scared off by the bubbles we make which is why sometimes most charters you're told to hold your breath. They're just curious. I guess it would be the same if aliens landed on Earth for us. How you would react would be different to the next person.
I have dove with hundreds of sharks. Is it fascinating to see them up close? Yes it is, however I treat them like I would want to be treated when eating: alone! Watch them from a distance and respect them.
Exactly!!!!! This is why these stunts anger me! When some dumb human decides to jump in and swim with a large Great White and they get killed, all the stupid people will go on a hunt for that shark and kill it or another one.
@@maverick2560 really? How about since there are so many of these humans swimming around the shark it could feel threatened, especially since they keep touching the shark?
The only times a shark would attack is if it’s aggravated. Or it mistakes you for it’s prey, which when you’re right next to it can’t mistake you for food. Sharks can also sometimes be territorial. Most species of sharks actually don’t attack people but the media makes them all look like huge scary beasts.
I have enjoyed watching Deep Blue ( on UA-cam) documentaries with teams of scientists, marine-biologists, the like who study GWs and particularly at Guadeloupe Island. One free -diver ( from France I believe)felt comfortable swimming with Blue there. The resident Mexican marine biologist spends a season tagging and catalogues GWs by markings & also indentations on the dorsal fin for further identification.( "like a finger print") I'm sure most on this thread have seen these fascinating documentaries ( I don't mean shark week stunts). I thought it was amazing to discover the great distances GWs travel, & that Blue had been sighted in both Guadeloupe, Mx & Hawaii. And in the company of another huge pregnant female as captured with Ocean Ramsey. ( albeit those who say big but smaller than Blue. )
I'm a 62 year old diver.....i hope your not in a life jacket one day waiting to be spotted you might have different perspective on deep blue.........you've probably inspired a whole new generation to safely swim with a white pointer.....i was inspired by flipper
No shit,my grandfather told me a story about a secret mission,getting hit with a Japanese torpedo,in Japanese waters,and praying to God he was rescued before a shark bit him in half...
@@Mydickinyoursister You know that was the time I was most frightened. Waitin’ for my turn. I’ll never put on a lifejacket again. So, eleven hundred men went into the water. 316 men come out, the sharks took the rest, June the 29th, 1945. Anyway, we delivered the bomb.
That's not even Deep Blue. Deep Blue has identifying scars on her left and right side, as well as a crescent moon shape taken out of the edge of her dorsal find. This is a shark named Haole Girl. I actually saw this episode. Deep Blue is 20+ feet and is estimated to weigh 5000 pounds. Haole Girl is estimated at 18 feet and 2 tons.
Ya idk what's going just clicked on a video of sharks hear shit about people getting mad the people are petting sharks? Idk tuned out to watch the shark such a beautiful creature looked pregnant too
@@whoswondering7911 how when the title of the video is who scared away deep blue? how is them not giving a shit when eating a whale got to do with sharks being attracted to people?
@Massive Legend He's not wrong is he? They also aren't harassing the sharks. She's trying to prove a point that they aren't out to kill you all the time. Obviously you should observe the animals from a safe distance and not get this close
It's on my bucket list to one day maybe swim with these amazing creatures! I used to be afraid of the ocean when I was younger but after educating myself about them I find them very fascinating!
I think Bulls mainly 'attack' in 'dirty' water don't they ? I'm def no expert but here in Australia attacks or bites by bulls mostly happen in dirty rivers,canals or when in the ocean after a lot of rainfall and there might be an outlet/ river mouth nearby making the water visibility poor. Not sure about other parts of the world, just seems to be the pattern here
bull and tigers aren't that aggressive. what people mistake for aggression is them test biting things to see what things are. the only shark you really should be worried about is the oceanic whitetip.
@@starandfox601 Yeah being an open ocean shark where food isn't easy to come across, oceanic whitetips don't waste time checking things out. They are a lot bolder than any other sharks and a lot more dangerous too. Still the cookie cutter is the last shark I'd want to be in the water with.
Goes out to all the people saying "Oh this diver is stupid for swimming with a huge shark so she deserves to get eaten", "Your harassing the animal", "Why didn't the shark take a bite out of the diver". From this video, I JUST found out there were 8 other divers with her. And this big beautiful great White didn't give two shits about them. Seriously! That's what Great White attacks are known for! Mistaken Identity! A bite is all they do! All these "Experts" Seriously need to stop watching TV.
So, on shark week scientists HOOK, FIGHT and essentially beach these "fragile" creatures on a floating deck. This is significant because the tremendous weight of these creatures is no longer supported by the water and the stress is incredibly dangerous as any fisherman knows who has caught large fish, things can go south quickly. Yet, when a bunch of divers greet and meet one of these magnificent creatures on their underwater turf for a short time it's a crime. GIVE ME A BREAK. Those sharks could give a rat's behind for those divers, they are the queens of their domain and all they see is slow, easy prey if they wanted. If you want to really stress a shark bring an orca around, as they are the kings of the ocean.
Blue KY Wildcat finally someone brings up the fact that we’re attacking someone for something so minuscule whilst other people are getting shows for stuff much worse
@@hilarityensues Sharks have been known to eat both smaller members of their own species and of other shark species.

Great whites and tiger sharks are on record killing bull sharks.if prey is scare etc then you wouldnt see all these sharks together like this.tiger sharks have been observed backing off from great whites at other whale carcasses a suppose it's mainly about size
You're right on so many points however I have witnessed a great white bite another great whites tail off whilst in South Africa from False Bay. Might not technically be "eating each other" but fighting over food.
The very last shark in the video, filmed from underneath the whale carcass, is obviously a large male white shark! I hadn't heard anything about large male white sharks at the site, just Deep Blue and a separate, almost as large, female GWS.
Wow people really calm down! Many animals like the attention they get, and if they don't they leave or they bite. If you are willing to get into the water with an animal like this then you are ok with getting bitten. I think the number of people is reckless for sure. But this world is full of people who are over reactive to everything but stand for nothing. What a beautiful animal and an amazing ocean. The only person I saw touching her was Ocean, like Steve Erwin she takes risk and helps the planet see that sharks should not be exterminated, but can be lived with side by side. If someone is stupid enough to go swimming with one because they saw it on youtube they deserve to be chomped! Really take a brown paper bag and just breath into it for a little while.
thankyou!!! made me furious everyone complaining about how they shouldnt have done this and that. Ocean has inspired millions of people around the world and drawn back the curtain of false stereotypes revolving around sharks. She did and does a great job, after all it is her job.
TigerMeadows What are you saying here? That these people were hunting the shark? That my comment was promoting shark fishing? That sharks really are sensitive and we have to pay attention to it? Or your comment has nothing to do with mine at all and you just want to virtue signal? I'd opt for the 3rd choice.
Why must we as humans always assume that every animal wants to be stroked and petted. Leave the shark alone people! Now with that said I don't have the courage to jump into the water with a great white, but even if I did I would observe from a distance.
Arent their laws about how close people can deliberately come to whales in the ocean ? Then there should be laws about how close they can come to sharks like this.
@@Checkeredminded DOH !!!!! The same is true with whales and all other sea life. But if you read about this encounter, as soon as they saw the massive shark, even more divers got into the water. What is your IQ Dylon ?
My opinion of Ocean Ramsey has massively deminished over the years. She is clearly FAR more concerned with modelling herself and making money from people diving with these sharks. She is no better than a Hunters Tour Guide in my opinion. To make money out of "preservation" is pretty much Fraud! I bet she drives a big ol BMW and has a million dollar house. If she does, this discredit her hugely. She is out for personal gain end of. Protecting these creatures doesn't mean making a fortune in sponsors and media coverage and taking tourists as close to them as you can. Observe from afar, admire their beauty, they are not dolphins to be swam with. Stop trying to make great whites fluffy!!!!!!
Making a lot of assumptions there. If that's true then yeah a bit fucked up, but unless you know it to be the case, is it worth mentioning? And about the media coverage, sponsors and making money with the dives. Can you think of better ways to fund conservation? Because without money youre not gonna get far
Give me a break and cut the virtue signalling and stupid comparisons: as you can see, Great Whites don't give a fuck about harmless divers swimming with them and even petting them. They're not that agressive nor fearful. They may not be as friendly as dolphins but neither they're territorial. The way and moments this experts and their groups approach them are done in a professional and sistematized way, it's not just putting on some flippers and then jumping into the water. They themselves advice against approaching the shark without the company of experts. Doing this might actually help a lot to finally destroy their image of man eaters and show them as what they really are: powerful creatures without bad attitudes that won't do anything if you know when to approach them. If this generates a lot of revenue for the conservation institutions and guides while the preservation objectives are achieved, then what the fuck is wrong?
She just bought a $1M+ house and property down the road from me, and has bought like 4 boats in only the last few years. She struggles to keep employees working for her, and I have friends who have worked there and all of them have some "not so nice things" to say about her and her company.
@@FishandDiveHawaii thanks I had heard some pretty shitty things about her and her insta account is all about her and a little about sharks... All photos are managed and always get her best angles! Fuck her!
@@FishandDiveHawaii And how does that affect the sharks? If she's a shitty person, then shame on her, but I don't see how this particular activity suddenly becomes reprobable?
I agree 100%. White sharks are federally protected species. Just like whales there needs to be a 300-foot clear area around them no approachment by human. All these divers whether they are under a permit or not need to be fine heavily for approaching this wonderful animal or any like it in nature since they are federally protected.
It’s good to know that for years sharks have just been a misunderstood species. I am so happy to know when I see a fin in the water coming towards me now that I am safe in the knowledge miss Ramsey and her brood has shown that it is just swimming by and means me no harm. This is so wonderful to have a feeling of relief that she has proven that sharks are not the mindless man-eaters they have been portrayed as. I am thinking this must be a new age millennial shark. A get along with everybody change your perception kind of shark. So when this or any other shark shows that it is an apex predator and kills or injures some of the next group of (“look at me”, “look at me” swim with a shark OMG)swimmers we really don’t need to hunt them all down and kill them. They have just been misunderstood for too long. Thank you so much miss Ramsey. The stupidity gene pool will be a little less full.
No thanks to Ramsey. Professor Clarke did more than Ramsey ever did regarding shark conservation and did it for the Shark not for personal gain. She is a FRAUD!!!
Are you crazy ? That's a female and that's a whale carcass. She's not bothered about the humans like many sharks won't be when there is food around - whale. But when your alone in the sea maybe surfing or taking a dip from your boat and a massive aggressive male white shark spots you and is hungry ( no whale carcass about ) try go to swim with it if you see it
@@maroof1 I myself am an avid surfer, I see plenty of sharks in the med and have never been bothered by them, maybe circled a few times but once they see we are calm and doing our own thing they move on, most of the time. We have seen a few huge shadows, but again no issues at all.y point is she's purely there to profit from these creatures and for personal gain not as much conservation as she always namgs on about. Leave them the hell Lone, the last thing we want are Great whites being a custom to humans being about as this affects their behaviour and not all humans wants great whites knowing humans are fair game as all things in the sea are potential meals regardless of sex. Also, feeding frenzies are not a place to be diving, probably the worst actually and if she was a "conservationist" she would be a saying that not selling fucking tickets!!
If you're not acting like prey or smell like prey (bleeding) chances are slim to you'll be lunch. The oceanic reef tips and smaller sharks are a little too curious. The great whites and tigers are not as dangerous, although they have the potential for a more damaging chomp. I would still poop my swim shorts at first notice.
So if there was this many other people why is it that the attention all seems to be going towards Ocean Ramsey as if she did something so unique? You know what I see when I watch this? Human arrogance recorded alive and well! Let's see, we have a whale carcass and numerous different species of sharks KNOWN to attack humans, in fact the top 3 human killers are all right there - hey! Let's dive in and swim with them!!! People are just so damn stupid - if just one of those sharks would have attacked and killed someone there is a good chance it would be hunted and killed, good going "marine biologist". That cameraman getting right up there and swimming around that carcass as the sharks are feeding really needs a good chomping as well. I get that it is a once in a lifetime experience and all that but I saw too many people getting way to cozy with that shark and what was her reasoning for touching the shark? With all those other sharks around you know the sharks are all on high alert for fear of being attacked as well by other sharks, and this woman decides it's OK to touch the shark several time? I will repeat, human arrogance is alive and well.
Ron Just Ron Ocean Ramsey got most of the attention because she repeatedly swam next to the shark and held onto the shark. On top of this sharks attack’s are extremely rare in fact you are 10 tens more likely to die to a cow than a shark. But you don’t see me deathly afraid of cows.
@@alcapone8069 - There is a difference between being afraid of something and respecting something. I love the Great White shark and it angers me when people just want to see them killed because of some irrational fear they have of them, but at the same time...... I love Great White Sharks and I hate seeing supposed Marine Biologists showing us how they swim right up to these beasts and they don't get hurt. This I hate because now people will start harrassing these animals even more and you know some idiot is going to get killed and then what happens? They have to hunt down and shoot the human killing shark! When I saw how many other divers were in the water and I saw the whale carcass as well as the other breeds of sharks I was surprised at how careless we have become around sharks. What is the worst time to be around a shark? When it's hungry!! These sharks are all feeding and stupid human beings think it's OK to slap on some fins and grab a snorkel and jump in the water with them? Bulls and especially Tigers are known to attack humans! Now think about this - it is a known fact that when a large shark enters an area the smaller sharks will get out of it's way right? So, we have a large group of known man eating sharks all gathered around and feeding on a whale carcass. Suddenly this beautiful 20 foot girl comes on to the scene and the smaller sharks will scatter, but they are still hungry. Now how much danger are those humans in? It's really a catch 22 type of a thing - on one hand it's good they are showing these animals are just human thirsty killers but on the other hand are they misleading less trained people to attempt to jump in the water with these sharks? I have seen plenty of video's of other shark experts who say these ones who jump in the water with Great Whites are showing their arrogance and true lack of knowledge. Look how closely she gets to that sharks mouth and then touches it. Even if the shark had no interest in eating her, it could have felt threatened and taken her arm off.
Take a chill. She has done far more good for sharks, than to criticize this so heavily. She was one of the main figures that got sharks protected in the Hawaiian Islands. Where do all of you live? Are sharks protected? If not you aren't doing enough!!!
Agreed, I can hear the news report now.. " uhh huu huu JANIE SHE WAS JUST SUCH A NICE PERSON, LOVED THE OCEAN And THE ANIMALS>>> SHE LOVED THE SHARKS... IM GONNA MISS HER!!!... ::;; 'can you tell us why you were diving with a great white?'' "wellJANIE LOVE SHARKS, and LOVE TO SWIM... WITH THE SHARKS they never attacked before!!!"
What is it with people, especially freedivers, who feel the need to have their hands all over the wildlife? By all means, swim near them and enjoy seeing them, but otherwise, leave them alone!!!
These aren’t normal people just casually swimming with a great white, they’re experienced ocean biologists, and ocean (the girl) swims with sharks to break the stereotype that they’re all monsters trying to eat humans. I personally don’t see anything wrong with what they did, they know risks of getting into the water with a giant predator like that. If they get killed, it’s entirely their fault for being in the creatures natural home and space, but they’re also showing the world that these animals are tolerant of us, and aren’t out to get us.
So you don't think people should be afraid of sharks? Personally I fear anything that will actively kill and eat me that include bears, lions, tigers, parasites and yes fucking sharks.
Violent Rainbow I think you should be aware of the danger that comes with sharks, but me personally I’m only going to fear a beautiful animal if it shows me aggression. Which they will do if I am in their space, unaware of their physical behaviors, and they are upset with me being there. This shark in the video showed no signs of aggression, and it tolerated these divers who knew what they were doing, and understood the Sharks body language. It’s my personal opinion and my personal view on these kind of animals. I think dangerous predators are beautiful and I appreciate them from a distance because I’m not trained or informed enough about how to behave around them to do anything different, I don’t fear them though
Violent Rainbow also fearing a shark and thinking all of them are out to get you and murder you and your family for no reason other than to eat and to kill are very different things. Fear is a natural reaction to scary predators who can easily kill you. Thinking they all are terrible monsters who are going to kill you every chance they get is different and I don’t agree with it, because with that thinking comes things like shark finning and slaughter just because
"Blue Water White Death" the ground breaking documentary from the 70's, was the first to have divers free swimming around a whale carcass while filming. Stan Waterman,Rod and Valerie Taylor and a number of other well known divers were part of the team. They were swimming with Oceanic White Tips that were over 10' in length.A VERY dangerous shark...the sharks were completely fixated on eating the whale, couldnt care less about the people.
This proves that sharks and other animals aren't as mindless, cold blooded killers as people say they are. It sucks to be someone who doesn't even understand or gotten to know these animals, even if the shark was hungry, it won't waste energy on a prey that can punch, kick or bite back at the face. Let alone, human flesh doesn't conserve them, we are mainly bone, so the shark would go after a seal or fish which is its natural diet.
A huge mistake that a lot of people who argue that shark ecotourism is unethical and harmful make is assuming that sharks have the same psychology as alligators, bears, or lions just because they're large, wild, predators. They don't. Shark interaction is still dangerous and needs to be done in the right conditions with expert training or supervision, but it is not remotely the same as trying to interact with a wild bear you saw while hiking alone in Yosemite. In general, interaction with aquatic animals is completely different than interacting with land animals, because you're an alien in that environment. All in all, though, I wish people would stop assuming every animal is psychologically identical just because it lives in the wild, which is obviously not true if you look to any source beyond Joe Rogan on his fourth blunt while conversing with another UFC fighter.
Commenters are right. There was a circle of people harassing the shark. The narrator is wrong & I can speak from experience. Great White sharks are shy & very cautious predators. Mobbing Deep Blue as she was feeding was totally inappropriate. Ocean Ramsey instigated this "circus" & has done so on other occasions all over the world. Because of her videos people have a very skewed perception of Great Whites & other species of sharks. Her interactions with this shark alone are totally inappropriate (she should know better) & mislead people to think they too can swim safely with Great Whites, even Great Whites feeding on whale carcasses. Every shark behaves differently. Just because no one was attacked in this case does not mean one can generalise about what any shark will do, when feeding or otherwise. Ocean Ramsey's behaviour in this case is offensive, irresponsible & may very likely have been one of the reasons Deep Blue left the area without feeding as much as she needed to. A shark's skin is ultra sensitive to touch & vibrations in the water. Ramsey's hands all over the shark may have actually been an irritant to her or even painful, especially with Ramsey's repeated dives where handling the shark occurred, even prompting Deep Blue to ultimately leave an area she swam all the way from Mexico to visit for reasons we don't yet understand. To assume sharks ignore anything in order to feed is utterly wrong. Sharks ignore nothing. Also, Deep Blue hasn't lived as long as she has by being careless. Ocean Ramsey's irresponsible behaviour & insatiable need for publicity just may cause the death of Big Blue in the end.
Interesting. Maybe because of the abundance of food offered by the whale carcass, the sharks go into a kind of mild stupor. Like a family after Thanksgiving Day turkey meal.
One day Deep Blue is going to remind these fools, that it's a Shark NOT a damn puppy. When that happens it will a bounty to kill her based on Stupid humans.
10 freaking people swarming around a huge shark next to a dead whale
The first clip has nothing to do with the sharks feeding on a dead whales carcass...
Unless more hostile feeding competition starts with newcomers, this is probably the safest chance to swim with stuffed and satisfied sharks, not looking for a human taste experiment.
The food is the best, already.

So long as they're well fed I guess :P

That's not Deep Blue IMO....that is another massive female who apparently has been named "Haole Girl".
Deep Blue was seen and photographed at the same location, but on a different day.
You can see this by the fact that the real "DEEP BLUE" has two large black markings on her white underside....the smaller one, under her "chin" and a second, much larger one, on her belly, located between her two pectoral fins.
As you can see, this big girl has no large black markings on her chin or belly.
This is wonderful and amazing footage, but this particular shark is not DEEP BLUE....
"Haole Girl" though, as she has been named is just as awe-inspiring.
Please stop misidentifying the wrong shark, now that we know this particular one was not DEEP BLUE (who was there at a different time, seen by others)
Re-check the sources and update.
Exactly Deep Blue also had deep scars in her gill slits and a circular wound near the anal fin.
@@aniket33591
yes, the very deep circular gouge on the right side near the anal fin, was very deep and was very fresh when she was videod in 2013 or so. That wound would have definitely healed by now, but it would have left a very very noticeable round scar.
and also, the 3-4 large rake markes/gouges on her left side, about equal with her dorsal fin, are not present.
i have seen the other picture of the "confirmed" pic of Deep Blue, but it is still too far away for me to see. i am not questioning if they saw her i'd just like to see it with my own eyes.
Well spotted
Aniket Sengupta .......I agree with you after watching other videos of " Deep Blue" that this shark was not her based on the scars and wound when deep blue was originally located and I believe she ( the famous shark diver) stated it was deep blue for click bait ( no pun intended) to attract people to view her videos. Then in another video still titled " deep Blue" again for click bait she revealed she is waiting for confirmation from the doctor scientist who discovered deep blue first.
Now the fact is, this is still a impressive massive sized female shark I feel is smaller than deep blue but I am not sure how much smaller. I can tell visually this one is though if you compare this one to the video of deep blue swimming near vertically along the divers cage. Still a impressive find.
What bothers me more, this lady and her team stated they were just diving and came across this shark when the fact is a group of fisherman located the shark eating on the whale carcass and reported the size of it. This lady and her team are out here taking credit in areas they did not do at all which frankly pisses me off that they are lying but on the other note, regardless of their lies on all of this, it truly was some nice video they captured of this other massive female white shark.
@@aniket33591 I also noticed this one doesn't have the terrible scarring of Deep Blue. It means there are two beautiful 20 footers not one.
Does anybody else hate it when news channels and even Discovery refer to the oceans as "Shatk Infested Waters" ? like the sharks shouldn't be there,.
Alright , this is a bit ridiculous. Someone WILL get chomped sooner than later.
jeff bauer I wonder why the shark didn’t attack?
The shark didn’t attack because it probably knows that at its size, the “bait” would be too meaningless. Something that massive eats things larger than people. It knows that it would maybe snag one person and everyone else would scatter. They are extremely smart killing machines. Why go after a squirrel when you can have a nice big chunk of steak out of a whale?
@@nicksmith3746 Because it was feeding on a big fat whale carcass.
Correct you are!
Kalob Black they eat seals so your comment is inaccurate.
Great point. It's borderline hilarious how some people suggest a massive Great White was somehow intimidated by divers. It would be like your obese aunt Cynthia being chased away by toddlers at a McDonald's. That shit ain't happening.
Imagine you're just swimming around the ocean peacefully minding your buisiness and an annoying ass group of human jumps all over your back... rubbing ur neck and fin, ugh 🤢🤮😖
This! Everyone has to touch instead of just watching from a distance.
Sharks don't need to surface and can swim away at any time, clearly this isn't bothering her too much.

Madeline O'Brien that is not deep blue. These clowns are lying
Whether it is deep blue or not they should NOT be crowding the shark
@@madelineobrien4993 its not deep blue
When it comes to deep blue allowing herself to be touched its fascinating to say the least. But lets not over do it and let her live in peace with as minimal disturbance as possible in her natural habitat.
idk why you've never gotten a like until I just read your post right now for the first time.
It’s not deep blue.
When someone visits a national park, they observe the animal and do their utmost to not interfere with the animal - yet these divers feel the urge to ride the shark?!? Regardless of whether it attacks them or not, there should be a universal marine etiquette, just as there is bush etiquette. Observe and that’s it, don’t feed, ride, shout, touch or harass any wild animals in their environment.
People have to touch everything don’t they. Bloody children.” Ooh I’ve touched it, that makes it more real” stop touching wild animals you pathetic hippies. People are their own worst enemy
Exactly and if Ocean Ramsey is really a marine biologist she shouldn’t be practicing touching or riding the shark. Any Scientist would want to study but still act in the best interest of the animal.
totally different environment. It's like if you're in the country side, you may wave to a farmer across the road. In the city, you may high five someone busting a dance move on the sidewalk. The ocean's creatures mingle quite a bit.
What’s wrong with riding it? The Ocean is similar to space and the shark is so heavy that it can carry humans
Well since the shark didn’t attack she was fine. Plus, this was a different shark
I'd be more worried about the Oceanic Black Tip and Bullshark more than Deep Blue. They're extremely territorial.
Deep Blue is a cool ole granny, who still gets knocked up apparently, at the ripe age of estimated 50.
Sometimes I wonder what people’s opinions on sharks would be if Jaws never happened...
Also what a chonk
people need to remember that sharks are still predators. yes, you can swim with a shark without getting attacked. it doesn't mean it never will attack you. it has a brain and free will, so it's capable of attacking you regardless of whether or not you're in its food chain. being around sharks that are feeding is dangerous in the same way that its dangerous to be around lions or wolves that are feeding. if an animal has a mechanism to harm you with, it can harm you with that mechanism. even something like a male deer can be dangerous if you're careless.
Humans were never been part of the shark food chain lol
They may not consider people to be food, but in that case they're quite likely to consider you to be competition for that whale carcass, It's not bright to get close to them when they're eating
"They don't give a shit about you". Believe it or not but they are well aware of us and very curious. Some are actually scared off by the bubbles we make which is why sometimes most charters you're told to hold your breath. They're just curious. I guess it would be the same if aliens landed on Earth for us. How you would react would be different to the next person.
I have dove with hundreds of sharks. Is it fascinating to see them up close? Yes it is, however I treat them like I would want to be treated when eating: alone! Watch them from a distance and respect them.
When someone gets killed by an attack, don't attack and kill the shark.....ONLY A MATTER OF TIME
Michael Wilson facts
Exactly!!!!! This is why these stunts anger me! When some dumb human decides to jump in and swim with a large Great White and they get killed, all the stupid people will go on a hunt for that shark and kill it or another one.
Absolutely no reason the shark would attack them when there's a massive, already dead source of food around.
@@maverick2560 really? How about since there are so many of these humans swimming around the shark it could feel threatened, especially since they keep touching the shark?
The only times a shark would attack is if it’s aggravated. Or it mistakes you for it’s prey, which when you’re right next to it can’t mistake you for food.
Sharks can also sometimes be territorial. Most species of sharks actually don’t attack people but the media makes them all look like huge scary beasts.
I have enjoyed watching Deep Blue ( on UA-cam) documentaries with teams of scientists, marine-biologists, the like who study GWs and particularly at Guadeloupe Island. One free -diver ( from France I believe)felt comfortable swimming with Blue there. The resident Mexican marine biologist spends a season tagging and catalogues GWs by markings & also indentations on the dorsal fin for further identification.( "like a finger print")
I'm sure most on this thread have seen these fascinating documentaries ( I don't mean shark week stunts). I thought it was amazing to discover the great distances GWs travel, & that Blue had been sighted in both Guadeloupe, Mx & Hawaii. And in the company of another huge pregnant female as captured with Ocean Ramsey. ( albeit those who say big but smaller than Blue. )
Thanks for this video. I hope this goes viral. These people are ridiculous.
I'm a 62 year old diver.....i hope your not in a life jacket one day waiting to be spotted you might have different perspective on deep blue.........you've probably inspired a whole new generation to safely swim with a white pointer.....i was inspired by flipper
No shit,my grandfather told me a story about a secret mission,getting hit with a Japanese torpedo,in Japanese waters,and praying to God he was rescued before a shark bit him in half...
Did it? Don’t leave us hanging!
It bit off the entire left side of his body, he was all right.
@@Mydickinyoursister
You know that was the time I was most frightened. Waitin’ for my turn. I’ll never put on a lifejacket again. So, eleven hundred men went into the water. 316 men come out, the sharks took the rest, June the 29th, 1945.
Anyway, we delivered the bomb.
@@Mydickinyoursister
Your grandfather was serving on the cruiser USS Indianapolis on July 30th of 1945?
That's not even Deep Blue. Deep Blue has identifying scars on her left and right side, as well as a crescent moon shape taken out of the edge of her dorsal find. This is a shark named Haole Girl. I actually saw this episode. Deep Blue is 20+ feet and is estimated to weigh 5000 pounds. Haole Girl is estimated at 18 feet and 2 tons.
Correct.
Deep blue is much bulkier than this shark.
Can some one tell me the point of this video please?

That sharks arent attracted to people when theyre eating a whale? Seems about obvious.

If you absolutely must, then go inside a very secure cage, preferably attached to a boat.
I think I'd be more worried about that bull...or even the tiger as far as going after a person...✌🤔
I think Bulls mainly 'attack' in 'dirty' water don't they ? I'm def no expert but here in Australia attacks or bites by bulls mostly happen in dirty rivers,canals or when in the ocean after a lot of rainfall and there might be an outlet/ river mouth nearby making the water visibility poor. Not sure about other parts of the world, just seems to be the pattern here
Easts75 they just have a more aggressive temperament and lack fear towards other animals
bull and tigers aren't that aggressive.
what people mistake for aggression is them test biting things to see what things are.
the only shark you really should be worried about is the oceanic whitetip.
@@starandfox601 Um ok?
@@starandfox601 Yeah being an open ocean shark where food isn't easy to come across, oceanic whitetips don't waste time checking things out. They are a lot bolder than any other sharks and a lot more dangerous too. Still the cookie cutter is the last shark I'd want to be in the water with.
Goes out to all the people saying "Oh this diver is stupid for swimming with a huge shark so she deserves to get eaten", "Your harassing the animal", "Why didn't the shark take a bite out of the diver". From this video, I JUST found out there were 8 other divers with her. And this big beautiful great White didn't give two shits about them. Seriously! That's what Great White attacks are known for! Mistaken Identity! A bite is all they do! All these "Experts" Seriously need to stop watching TV.
So, on shark week scientists HOOK, FIGHT and essentially beach these "fragile" creatures on a floating deck. This is significant because the tremendous weight of these creatures is no longer supported by the water and the stress is incredibly dangerous as any fisherman knows who has caught large fish, things can go south quickly.
Yet, when a bunch of divers greet and meet one of these magnificent creatures on their underwater turf for a short time it's a crime.
GIVE ME A BREAK.
Those sharks could give a rat's behind for those divers, they are the queens of their domain and all they see is slow, easy prey if they wanted.
If you want to really stress a shark bring an orca around, as they are the kings of the ocean.
Blue KY Wildcat finally someone brings up the fact that we’re attacking someone for something so minuscule whilst other people are getting shows for stuff much worse

Rylo Pokegoji, you are correct, but I think you missed the point.
Dude to many people surrounding the shark. Trying to make the Shark claustrophobic 😱

Wow people really calm down! Many animals like the attention they get, and if they don't they leave or they bite. If you are willing to get into the water with an animal like this then you are ok with getting bitten. I think the number of people is reckless for sure. But this world is full of people who are over reactive to everything but stand for nothing. What a beautiful animal and an amazing ocean. The only person I saw touching her was Ocean, like Steve Erwin she takes risk and helps the planet see that sharks should not be exterminated, but can be lived with side by side. If someone is stupid enough to go swimming with one because they saw it on youtube they deserve to be chomped! Really take a brown paper bag and just breath into it for a little while.
thankyou!!! made me furious everyone complaining about how they shouldnt have done this and that. Ocean has inspired millions of people around the world and drawn back the curtain of false stereotypes revolving around sharks. She did and does a great job, after all it is her job.
The only reason why this is safe is cause there is a massive food source in the water.
"Those sharks don't give a shit about you..."

@First Name Last Name Good question. You point it out and tell me, because I can't find it myself.

Why must we as humans always assume that every animal wants to be stroked and petted. Leave the shark alone people! Now with that said I don't have the courage to jump into the water with a great white, but even if I did I would observe from a distance.
Arent their laws about how close people can deliberately come to whales in the ocean ? Then there should be laws about how close they can come to sharks like this.

These people should have been arrested. They have no respect for wildlife.
Shame she didn't take a bite out of them.
My opinion of Ocean Ramsey has massively deminished over the years. She is clearly FAR more concerned with modelling herself and making money from people diving with these sharks. She is no better than a Hunters Tour Guide in my opinion. To make money out of "preservation" is pretty much Fraud! I bet she drives a big ol BMW and has a million dollar house. If she does, this discredit her hugely. She is out for personal gain end of. Protecting these creatures doesn't mean making a fortune in sponsors and media coverage and taking tourists as close to them as you can. Observe from afar, admire their beauty, they are not dolphins to be swam with. Stop trying to make great whites fluffy!!!!!!
Making a lot of assumptions there. If that's true then yeah a bit fucked up, but unless you know it to be the case, is it worth mentioning?
And about the media coverage, sponsors and making money with the dives. Can you think of better ways to fund conservation? Because without money youre not gonna get far
Give me a break and cut the virtue signalling and stupid comparisons: as you can see, Great Whites don't give a fuck about harmless divers swimming with them and even petting them. They're not that agressive nor fearful. They may not be as friendly as dolphins but neither they're territorial. The way and moments this experts and their groups approach them are done in a professional and sistematized way, it's not just putting on some flippers and then jumping into the water. They themselves advice against approaching the shark without the company of experts. Doing this might actually help a lot to finally destroy their image of man eaters and show them as what they really are: powerful creatures without bad attitudes that won't do anything if you know when to approach them.
If this generates a lot of revenue for the conservation institutions and guides while the preservation objectives are achieved, then what the fuck is wrong?

I agree 100%. White sharks are federally protected species. Just like whales there needs to be a 300-foot clear area around them no approachment by human. All these divers whether they are under a permit or not need to be fine heavily for approaching this wonderful animal or any like it in nature since they are federally protected.
It’s good to know that for years sharks have just been a misunderstood species. I am so happy to know when I see a fin in the water coming towards me now that I am safe in the knowledge miss Ramsey and her brood has shown that it is just swimming by and means me no harm. This is so wonderful to have a feeling of relief that she has proven that sharks are not the mindless man-eaters they have been portrayed as. I am thinking this must be a new age millennial shark. A get along with everybody change your perception kind of shark. So when this or any other shark shows that it is an apex predator and kills or injures some of the next group of (“look at me”, “look at me” swim with a shark OMG)swimmers we really don’t need to hunt them all down and kill them. They have just been misunderstood for too long. Thank you so much miss Ramsey. The stupidity gene pool will be a little less full.
No thanks to Ramsey. Professor Clarke did more than Ramsey ever did regarding shark conservation and did it for the Shark not for personal gain. She is a FRAUD!!!
Are you crazy ? That's a female and that's a whale carcass. She's not bothered about the humans like many sharks won't be when there is food around - whale. But when your alone in the sea maybe surfing or taking a dip from your boat and a massive aggressive male white shark spots you and is hungry ( no whale carcass about ) try go to swim with it if you see it
@@maroof1 I myself am an avid surfer, I see plenty of sharks in the med and have never been bothered by them, maybe circled a few times but once they see we are calm and doing our own thing they move on, most of the time. We have seen a few huge shadows, but again no issues at all.y point is she's purely there to profit from these creatures and for personal gain not as much conservation as she always namgs on about. Leave them the hell Lone, the last thing we want are Great whites being a custom to humans being about as this affects their behaviour and not all humans wants great whites knowing humans are fair game as all things in the sea are potential meals regardless of sex. Also, feeding frenzies are not a place to be diving, probably the worst actually and if she was a "conservationist" she would be a saying that not selling fucking tickets!!
If you're not acting like prey or smell like prey (bleeding) chances are slim to you'll be lunch. The oceanic reef tips and smaller sharks are a little too curious. The great whites and tigers are not as dangerous, although they have the potential for a more damaging chomp.
I would still poop my swim shorts at first notice.
So if there was this many other people why is it that the attention all seems to be going towards Ocean Ramsey as if she did something so unique?
You know what I see when I watch this? Human arrogance recorded alive and well! Let's see, we have a whale carcass and numerous different species of sharks KNOWN to attack humans, in fact the top 3 human killers are all right there - hey! Let's dive in and swim with them!!!
People are just so damn stupid - if just one of those sharks would have attacked and killed someone there is a good chance it would be hunted and killed, good going "marine biologist". That cameraman getting right up there and swimming around that carcass as the sharks are feeding really needs a good chomping as well. I get that it is a once in a lifetime experience and all that but I saw too many people getting way to cozy with that shark and what was her reasoning for touching the shark? With all those other sharks around you know the sharks are all on high alert for fear of being attacked as well by other sharks, and this woman decides it's OK to touch the shark several time? I will repeat, human arrogance is alive and well.
Ron Just Ron Ocean Ramsey got most of the attention because she repeatedly swam next to the shark and held onto the shark. On top of this sharks attack’s are extremely rare in fact you are 10 tens more likely to die to a cow than a shark. But you don’t see me deathly afraid of cows.
@@alcapone8069 - There is a difference between being afraid of something and respecting something. I love the Great White shark and it angers me when people just want to see them killed because of some irrational fear they have of them, but at the same time...... I love Great White Sharks and I hate seeing supposed Marine Biologists showing us how they swim right up to these beasts and they don't get hurt. This I hate because now people will start harrassing these animals even more and you know some idiot is going to get killed and then what happens? They have to hunt down and shoot the human killing shark! When I saw how many other divers were in the water and I saw the whale carcass as well as the other breeds of sharks I was surprised at how careless we have become around sharks. What is the worst time to be around a shark? When it's hungry!! These sharks are all feeding and stupid human beings think it's OK to slap on some fins and grab a snorkel and jump in the water with them? Bulls and especially Tigers are known to attack humans!
Now think about this - it is a known fact that when a large shark enters an area the smaller sharks will get out of it's way right? So, we have a large group of known man eating sharks all gathered around and feeding on a whale carcass. Suddenly this beautiful 20 foot girl comes on to the scene and the smaller sharks will scatter, but they are still hungry. Now how much danger are those humans in?
It's really a catch 22 type of a thing - on one hand it's good they are showing these animals are just human thirsty killers but on the other hand are they misleading less trained people to attempt to jump in the water with these sharks? I have seen plenty of video's of other shark experts who say these ones who jump in the water with Great Whites are showing their arrogance and true lack of knowledge. Look how closely she gets to that sharks mouth and then touches it. Even if the shark had no interest in eating her, it could have felt threatened and taken her arm off.
@@alabamahebrew This here is probably the most sensible argument in the whole comment section. I'm glad someone has a brain. Thank you kind sir.
Ocean Ramsay is interested only in self-promotion.
Take a chill. She has done far more good for sharks, than to criticize this so heavily. She was one of the main figures that got sharks protected in the Hawaiian Islands. Where do all of you live? Are sharks protected? If not you aren't doing enough!!!

This shark is not even Deep Blue ,deep blue had a dorsal fin half moon damage and a huge scar on its right side.
What is it with people, especially freedivers, who feel the need to have their hands all over the wildlife? By all means, swim near them and enjoy seeing them, but otherwise, leave them alone!!!
These aren’t normal people just casually swimming with a great white, they’re experienced ocean biologists, and ocean (the girl) swims with sharks to break the stereotype that they’re all monsters trying to eat humans. I personally don’t see anything wrong with what they did, they know risks of getting into the water with a giant predator like that. If they get killed, it’s entirely their fault for being in the creatures natural home and space, but they’re also showing the world that these animals are tolerant of us, and aren’t out to get us.
So you don't think people should be afraid of sharks? Personally I fear anything that will actively kill and eat me that include bears, lions, tigers, parasites and yes fucking sharks.
Violent Rainbow I think you should be aware of the danger that comes with sharks, but me personally I’m only going to fear a beautiful animal if it shows me aggression. Which they will do if I am in their space, unaware of their physical behaviors, and they are upset with me being there. This shark in the video showed no signs of aggression, and it tolerated these divers who knew what they were doing, and understood the Sharks body language. It’s my personal opinion and my personal view on these kind of animals. I think dangerous predators are beautiful and I appreciate them from a distance because I’m not trained or informed enough about how to behave around them to do anything different, I don’t fear them though
Violent Rainbow also fearing a shark and thinking all of them are out to get you and murder you and your family for no reason other than to eat and to kill are very different things. Fear is a natural reaction to scary predators who can easily kill you. Thinking they all are terrible monsters who are going to kill you every chance they get is different and I don’t agree with it, because with that thinking comes things like shark finning and slaughter just because
"Blue Water White Death" the ground breaking documentary from the 70's, was the first to have divers free swimming around a whale carcass while filming. Stan Waterman,Rod and Valerie Taylor and a number of other well known divers were part of the team. They were swimming with Oceanic White Tips that were over 10' in length.A VERY dangerous shark...the sharks were completely fixated on eating the whale, couldnt care less about the people.
Kurt X well if they are not interested then they are not dangerous. Swim with them when they are in shark mode and I’ll give you props people!
Peter Gimbel said there were times when the sharks seemed more interested in them than in the whale.

Not in the book or the documentary…
Maybe on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson after a couple of gin and tonics.
What i noticed is theres two dolphins in the distance between the shark and the boat that casually swam off.
Taking a chance to see a Great White that close is very risky. Be on your guard. Good thing this Great White is calm and is not interested in them.
I just noticed that there were 2 Dolphins in the background or something.
Me too!! No doubt keeping an eye on things.
This proves that sharks and other animals aren't as mindless, cold blooded killers as people say they are.
It sucks to be someone who doesn't even understand or gotten to know these animals, even if the shark was hungry, it won't waste energy on a prey that can punch, kick or bite back at the face. Let alone, human flesh doesn't conserve them, we are mainly bone, so the shark would go after a seal or fish which is its natural diet.
Another Ramsey educated shark expert.

For the love of all that's Holy...just leave the shark alone!! Go bug someone else!!
Hes like "your lucky I can't turn very well"
A huge mistake that a lot of people who argue that shark ecotourism is unethical and harmful make is assuming that sharks have the same psychology as alligators, bears, or lions just because they're large, wild, predators. They don't. Shark interaction is still dangerous and needs to be done in the right conditions with expert training or supervision, but it is not remotely the same as trying to interact with a wild bear you saw while hiking alone in Yosemite. In general, interaction with aquatic animals is completely different than interacting with land animals, because you're an alien in that environment. All in all, though, I wish people would stop assuming every animal is psychologically identical just because it lives in the wild, which is obviously not true if you look to any source beyond Joe Rogan on his fourth blunt while conversing with another UFC fighter.
The shark looked like it was confused as to which person it should eat first
Leave deep blue alone. She does her rounds and doesn't bother anyone!
Hey, let’s all swim with sharks! It’s safe, nothing to worry about.
Commenters are right. There was a circle of people harassing the shark. The narrator is wrong & I can speak from experience. Great White sharks are shy & very cautious predators. Mobbing Deep Blue as she was feeding was totally inappropriate. Ocean Ramsey instigated this "circus" & has done so on other occasions all over the world. Because of her videos people have a very skewed perception of Great Whites & other species of sharks. Her interactions with this shark alone are totally inappropriate (she should know better) & mislead people to think they too can swim safely with Great Whites, even Great Whites feeding on whale carcasses. Every shark behaves differently. Just because no one was attacked in this case does not mean one can generalise about what any shark will do, when feeding or otherwise. Ocean Ramsey's behaviour in this case is offensive, irresponsible & may very likely have been one of the reasons Deep Blue left the area without feeding as much as she needed to. A shark's skin is ultra sensitive to touch & vibrations in the water. Ramsey's hands all over the shark may have actually been an irritant to her or even painful, especially with Ramsey's repeated dives where handling the shark occurred, even prompting Deep Blue to ultimately leave an area she swam all the way from Mexico to visit for reasons we don't yet understand. To assume sharks ignore anything in order to feed is utterly wrong. Sharks ignore nothing. Also, Deep Blue hasn't lived as long as she has by being careless. Ocean Ramsey's irresponsible behaviour & insatiable need for publicity just may cause the death of Big Blue in the end.
One of the most dangerous, feared, ruthless killers in the world, swimming with a Great White Shark.
Cold, unintelligent, ruthless and jumpy.....humans
Just another guy here to say that's probably not Deep Blue. No signs of the scars Deep Blue has.
AI fan it’s not. It’s Haole Girl.
Interesting. Maybe because of the abundance of food offered by the whale carcass, the sharks go into a kind of mild stupor.
Like a family after Thanksgiving Day turkey meal.
Leave Deep Blue alone. Admire her from a distant.
JackassJunior627 I agree. But this is not deep blue
How didn't eny of these divers drown?! With such big balls they must have had!
Humans: Lemme pet it its so cool lmao
Shark: Wtf leave me alone man I'm having lunch
That many people annoying the Shark whilst it's pregnant and clearly trying to eat is asking for a warning bite.
I'd be more afraid of the bull shark than anything else in the water right there. But this is absolutely crazy.
Bull sharks are exaggerated in danger to humans. The average great white will bite a human more than the average bull shark.
One day Deep Blue is going to remind these fools, that it's a Shark NOT a damn puppy. When that happens it will a bounty to kill her based on Stupid humans.
Very cool video. Great job. Nice commentary
Too many people bugging her.she left to go somewhere quiet to have her babies
Actually, there were more divers, but you couldn't see them unless you opened up Deep Blue.
I dont think that is deep blue. This shark is about 16 feet long and deep blue was way fatter and maybe 18-20 feet long.
Great White7 some say closer to 22
They saw the guys jumping in lion cages at zoos and were like here hold my beer
Oh golly! I can just imagine what megalodon would've been.
