    Oh. No. It’s January 18th, 2019, and there’s people who think Great White Sharks are safe to swim with. The bigger, and older means more relaxed, and docile. These people claim they can predict if the sharks are aggressive. Jesus.

    Great Whites are really good at acclimating to the California coastal waters. They are in a target rich environment for food supply. Common sense tells you that swimming off of the coast is dangerous so I recommend taking your friend to a swimming pool where there are noooo great whites to be seen or that will rock the boat (so to speak)...

    So, they didn't feel like putting up a warning, "because it happened 1/4 of a mile out"???
    1/4 of a mile = 400m. A great white's cruising speed is about 8km/h, so it would cover that distance in about 3.5 minutes... At cruising speed... Now, as it's attack speed is about 20km/h it could hypothetically cover the distance in less than 1.5 minutes... But no need to put up a sign or anything, let's just assume that it isn't attracted by people splashing around like seals... It's amazing how little work you can get away with, by careful application of assumption...

    I was fishing off ano nuevo just north of there in the 70s . We were looking at a small sea lion playing around next to our boat . the shark came from under and drove the sea lion about 6 feet in the air . He chomped it in half , circled back and swallowed the rest . the birds came in and inside a minute there was no trace anything had happened . Incredible sight . Never heard of this but gotta question how serious that fish was . Didn't look like what it could have done if it really had a mind to .

  • @alanjosipn1956
    @alanjosipn1956 5 років тому +2

    Your boat is the colour of a SEAL! Paint it green. I believe that green repels them. Someone did research years ago with colours..I'm sure green was 'safest'. But yours is the EXACT colour of a seal. And the way it attacked you is exactly how they hunt seals; from the deep. When you see a shark breaching it usually has a seal in its teeth..or a piece of one. You were definitely very lucky. He could have EEEASILY turned your boat over. I guess he realised that wood is not quite as digestible and tasty as seal. Praise Jesus because He saved you. You were not merely 'lucky'..it just wasn't your day to 'leave'.

  • @Texas240
    @Texas240 4 роки тому +2

    0:49 Orcas can splash seals off ice sheets to grab them when they hit the water (in the wild) and can lure birds near the water with fish to grab them (in captivity).
    It's not unreasonable that an old great white could learn to dump a human out of his little boat.
    Shark needed a toothpick, I guess.
