TIGER SHARK BITING DIVERS ON SCUBA DIVE

- This is one of the worst shark diving videos I have ever seen. Everything this operator did was completely negligent and left their guests in incredibly unsafe conditions including someone actually getting bit by this shark. Please learn from this video and do not support operators like this when you book a shark diving trip!!
#shark #sharks #tigershark #sharkdiving
This person who organized this dive should be prohibited from continuing his work and be sued for negligence of responsibility towards people and sharks.
Should do jail time
They Probably signed a waiver before they dove.
I bet the first thing he did when they got back to shore was tell the lady "remember, you signed a waiver!". Yeah good luck with that, you cannot waive your right to life or right to avoid serious injury especially if negligence is involved.
@@alwayslearninglessons pretty much meaningless in a real court.
And if by chance a bull shark came cruising by, things could really get real!
Shark diving tip #1: don’t carry a marlin head around with you ✅
It should seem pretty obvious lol🤦🏼♀️
Holy that's fuckn hilarious😂
@@clapdrix72 Shark diving is the marine equivalent of walking around lions with a zebra's head in your hand....Darwin awards all round.
@@CuchulainAD But it's not though cuz that would get your entire tour mauled every time, without fail. People dive safely with sharks every day. Think of one person who has interacted with a pride of wild lions and not gotten mauled, I'll even spot you the zebra head.
Now with that said, there's no way in hell I'm ever free diving with sharks. I take the 0% probability option when it comes to being eaten.
@@clapdrix72 Same level of stupidity my friend... Don't go around hand feeding predators ...I've seen enough vids of people being bitten to know this is not clever.
I don’t think people will blame the shark if they watch your video. You did a great job explaining why this was wrong. Thank you so much!
Unfortunately the vast majority of people who saw that viral video on tiktok and other platforms did not see this video and probably never will.
Meh, better for people to be scared of sharks and not go. Leave them alone. She seems part of the problem for me, trying to make this activity mainstream.
Actually I disagree because there's been instances where people have blamed the animals n even killed wild animals for this kind of stuff. It's sad. But if we leave wild animals be wild n do they're thing it protects them n us. We have no business disturbing their environment just for our entertainment. Most animals because extinct because of man kind tbh...
Maybe just leave these majestic creatures alone in the first place
They weren’t attacking the shark or anything, but I agree they seemed untrained to use bait.
Awful… he’s probably a brand new guide who was poorly trained and not at all prepared but pushed forward anyway. What a horrible shark diving company-profits over people’s safety. I hope that lady is okay. 🙏🏻
Shark Diving Tip Number 1: Don’t Shark Dive
Thank you!!!
Shark Diving tip Number 2 & 3: Don’t shark dive 😂
thats my rule nr 1
The ONLY tip that matters!
Where’s your sense of human curiosity?
Thank you for trying to spread awareness that it’s not the sharks fault and pointing out that it was the peoples fault and explaining too
Thank you I’m so happy you enjoyed it!
Are you smoking crack? Yes its the sharks vault and the fools that brought them there. How is this any different then bringing a group of people up close to Grizzly bears feeding? These are apex predators and you are potential food
Fault?
Sharks are PREDATORS!
To deny the obvious is foolish, at best.
The shark is just being a shark, it's not a question of blame or right or wrong. We are supposed to be the ones with intelligence, we are supposed to adopt behavior that minimizes our risk. Not the shark. The shark will act as sharks do and if you didn't take that into account the blame is YOURS.
You mean "unawareness"
No not ok to feed sharks as the people they approach later may not be shark wranglers. It's a selfish practice.
This guy needs to be fired!! The whole group was put in danger because of him!
This poor woman... It's make me so mad. 😡
I’ll never understand shark diving. I’m not saying sharks are savage monsters, but they’re wild animals. Would you get out of the safari truck and go pet or feed a lion? It’s just asking for trouble, imo.
there are no wild animals. there are animals. souls in different bodies. If you know how to interact with them properly (and this is also made out of experience) it's absolutely doable.
It's probably one of the next steps of human evolution
Like everthing, you can't run to it. it's like running for a yoga or meditation lesson. There is no point. You go to yoga or meditation lessons to learn how to be meditative in every moment of life. If you run to a meditation class, you failed the exam :D
like everything, noone is forcig you to do it.
My feeling watching this video and comparing it other experience shark divers on youtube, there is a slight difference. The feeling here, is that the guide tried to copy what other shark divers do, but he's missing some important part. As Andriana said, he's the first one to be scared by the interaction and the situation.
Can happen, but this must make him/her aware of not being ready to guide people in shark diving, at least for the moment. Maybe in the future he will get to it.
@@TheWolfalpino Firstly, you don't get to make up your own definition of wild animal and then correct everyone else, that's just nuts. Second we've already evolved over hundreds of thousands of years to recognize dangerous predators and avoid if possible.
There's such thing as a safe shark dive??
Someone's been smokin' the wacky tobacky.
You are absolutely correct with everything you said Andriana. Well said.
I’m glad you enjoyed it!
You only have five years experience as a shark guide. You should be the last person that anyone wants to go out in open water with. LOL
@@joebrown2309
Still better than going with you
@@Commentator488 Wrong. Your best bet going with him is that you will make it back home ! (because he will not allow you to do any bllsht !)
A shy shark? No! It’s a tiger shark 😂
Chumming the water during a shark dive is insane to me and I have never been in the water with sharks
Having bait and chumming the water with fish guts & blood are two different things. I don’t know exactly what they were doing though.
@@katesansom3841 the diver in charge had a fish head or part in his hand that he drops at one point
@@Canine_Mind Yes, I saw that. I would call that bait, not chumming. I also meant that I don't know the full story behind the video -- like why they were there and what their goal was.
@@katesansom3841 the goal was to take tourists to dive with sharks.
The first thing they did wrong: they went diving WITH SHARKS 🦈
Are there any details? It would be helpful to know the dive site and the operator.
Pro tip: swimming with predators is Always a bad idea.
The way it was able to cruise up behind her and bite the tank is shocking. I’ve always heard that was Rule #1 with tigers is to never turn your back to the shark.
Sharks will kill you.
I'm a retired, old school diver.
This is madness.
The irony of your comment flew right over your head. If sharks will kill yyou, why are you still here and old?
@@YampaYak-vd1xo
🤣😂😁
Because I'm obviously smarter than you, and
because I know how to avoid them.
What's a Yampa Yak?
Some sort of Polynesian canoe?
Or a Himalayan beast of burden? 😏
@@JohnMoore-xf5wyPlease stop lying. If you were a diver you’d never say something so ignorant
@@criert135
Says the poor little troll who won't bathe in a tub because of hydrophobia. 🤣
@@JohnMoore-xf5wy I snorkel for hours at a time and free dive. Have also done actual diving multiple times. Again, nobody who is used to diving would ever claim ‘sharks will kill you’. They would be well aware that there are many, many different species of sharks and only a handful of shark species that pose any significant danger to humans whatsoever.
Thanks for a thoughtful discussion of this video. My family did the Fiji shark dive and it was basically a 1 to 1 ratio of diver to guide. Guides were equipped with long metal staffs to nudge the sharks away from the guests. The guides managed the guests as a tight group and used the ocean floor to eliminate 50% of any possibility of engagement. The more dives I’ve had with sharks, the less blind fear I have of them. I don’t love the commercialization of sharks, but when you balance that with increasing awareness and protecting them, there is something to be gained for the sharks.
That tactic of putting everyone in a tight group wasn't that save as you see it. You should search for Robert Marc Lehmann on shark attacks, he explains very well on certain dangerous encounters with this tight grouping. I can't remember exactly if the person was just bitten, but I have in mind that someone died because of this
I've been diving and spearfishing my whole life, but I've had very few encounters with sharks, probably because I don't go shark diving, and I don't dive with a fish head.
I'm really not interested in shark dives and they don't seem like very responsible behavior.
The few times I've encountered sharks I give them their space and they give me my space and we get along just fine
Someone who does understand what you should do with sharks. But i do not believe in shark dives/feeds as it conditions sharks to see human beings as potential providers of food. This in my opinion encourages shark attacks and dangerous situations.
why is every video now full of jump cuts
Decline of attention span
It’s why divers who offer these excursions, such as diving with sharks have you sign waiver saying they’re not responsible for you well being. Which is crazy.
This lady thinks she knows sharks. Well she reminds me of the grizzly man.
Best analogy
What are you blathering about? Lemme guess it’s a woman so how could she be an expert right? 🙄🤡 Get over yourself.
She( The shark expert) Seems to know what she is talking about than you, random person on the internet.
@@ShinyJess1940 I’m sure the sharks will totally pat her on the back if given the chance
@@ShinyJess1940 she’s not a shark whisperer. She’s just been lucky but luck always runs out eventually. Repeatedly diving with tiger sharks, thinking you can control the situation is arrogance of the highest level.
#1 , don't get in the water with a tiger shark
How hard do you redirect them? About the same steady force as pushing a beach ball underwater? Probably also depends on the size and speed of the shark...
The " guide ".........same old faces, over and over and over......
Doesn’t look so good on him 🫠
Thanx for bringing us such incredible content ❤
Awww you are so sweet thank you 🥰🥰

Thanks for incredible footage and knowledge Andriana. We appreciate you! ❤️🦈
Shark diving tip number 1 don't take people with you like you are going into a petting zoo doesn't matter how much experience you got, that's exactly how you scare people of them, you are never in control and cannot avoid those scenarios
"People will say sharks are monsters, they just want to go up and eat everything". Don't sharks actually want to eat anything they can get away with eating though? Isn't that the case with all predators? When you don't know when your next meal is and if you don't eat you die and you aren't a pet that gets fed, that kind of changes the equation doesn't it. I mean, seriously people will twist and turn all ways to support whatever they believe in... If you love sharks like you do how can you be trusted to give an unbiased view, it's only logical that your view will be biased in favour of sharks no matter what. For sure these shark divers might be hopeless and maybe these sharks aren't the well fed docile ones you usually engage with either... I don't buy either story that sharks are mindless monsters attacking people all the time, nor do i buy your story that sharks are these gentle benevolent creatures who wouldn't hurt a fly... As usual the truth will be somewhere in the middle.. You do all your 'redirecting' in ideal conditions, most people who encounter sharks will not have these conditions. Also you seem to only redirect Tiger Sharks, can we have some videos of you redirecting Great Whites, Bull Sharks, and Oceanic White Tips etc etc please. Spread the love around to all shark species please. ❤
You just stated exactly how I feel. Well said.
She always blames the people, even Vladimir in Egypt. No matter who it is your r what they’re doing she blames them. She’s going to get people killed. Her and the other one Ramsey.
No they don't want to eat anything they can get away with. You just saw a video of multiple divers being super reckless with a bigass fish head and the only thing that happened was a minor bite on the hand. That shark could've killed all those people easily. It didn't want anything to do with them. That's why divers have to entice the sharks with fish. If the sharks just wanted to kill and eat everything including humans, that wouldn't be necessary
I say this all the time in the comments of these videos.
They don’t want to eat everything, the video proves this. The shark bit the woman to test what she is and if she is prey, of course if there is prey the shark is going to eat it, that’s what animals do. This shark bit the woman, discovered she was not prey, and then swam away, it EASILY could have eaten all of the divers there if it truly wanted to eat everything. They are not monsters, it bit the woman to see if she was prey, upon finding out she wasn’t, it swam away. It only considered she was prey from the fact the guide was being so reckless.
I really appreciate this video. I’ve seen a bunch of shark “attack” videos that weren’t actually attacks. The shark was just being a shark and the divers were stressing them out.
they're still attacks if the sharks bit something out of their own free will, which they did
Incidents like these are called "provoked attacks". The distinction between provoked and unprovoked is, obviously, that the humans did something to cause the shark to bite.
@@Texas240
Yeah.
There are lots of shark attack data sets from memory. It would be interesting to see what the criteria/demarcations are for these metrics. What is provoking and what is not. I'd posit the baseline for people is that their behaviour in water is not only conducive to shark curiosity but to attacks. Especially untrained people who have become aware of a large shark in proximity. They act like frightened prey. The outlier are divers who behave in ways that keep sharks passive. Also surfers who paddle their boards without knowledge of large sharks below. Their grace and confidence prevents arousal, but not curiosity. Otherwise, millions of swimmers playfully thrash about in the water every day around the globe. Just swimming vigorously esp. in rough seas would be conducive to arousal.
No one there is going to blame the shark, everyone dives with sharks knowing the risks.
Stupidity is far more dangerous than sharks will ever be.
its almost like someone has been swimming with these tiger sharks and teaching them that humans are not something to be afraid of and can be approached freely!
Thanks Adriana for explaining the safety of people in the sea and the sharks behaviour, take care 🦋👼😇🙏🙏💫💫
Anybody knows where this took place?
Well balanced response. Thank you for you efforts to raise awareness. Where do you operate your shark dives?
Clearly, the "guide" was completely incompetent.
it was the "ok" sign for me
considering the tiger shark as playful should be gross negligence
Thank you Adriana, and you're right people who don't understand sharks will point at this and blame the shark. And that just pisses me off so much. Because you know this video will go viral and misrepresent an animal that is already heavily misunderstood. Just so frustrating.
Thank you for the work, and education you do.
PEOPLE ARE FOOLS WHO THINK THEY CAN CONTROL THIS FUCKING SHARK!!! UNLESS YOU GOT A BOOMSTICK!
Exelente analisis....! Faltó analizar la peligrosa posición de nado arriba del tiburón.
Una muy buena explicación sobre todo lo que NO hay que hacer.
Gracias por tus comentarios...!😄
Thank you, Andriana, for sharing these very wise comments.
Sharks may appear frightening, but at the same time they may also be quite great partners to play with, as long as divers safety remains unquestionned.
Regards from Camargue !
100% correct!!! Thank you for educating us
Andriana, great info! Thanks for sharing... 🦈👍🏼
Getting bit by a Tiger that big is crazy. That must have been a ton of damage
Nice informative video Andriana! Totally agree with you !
Do you have any advice for swimmers on what to consider to be safe from sharks?
We don't see them as easily as divers and as far as I've heard splashing attracts sharks so could the normal leg stroke already be dangerous?
Fantastic well educated review. Thankyou
It's not a shark dive, it is shark feed
Thanks for educating people on this! But this must also show that instructors like this should have better knowledge I guess.
incredible! that was reckless !!!!! 😮
They could do everything right and still be bitten by shark because it doesn't care.
shark: hmm😋good meal
divers: no im not you're food
There is no safe shark dive. There are shark dives that are safer than others but none are safe.
Thanks for the info on this, I'll think of it next.
Great breakdown. Looked intense
I’m 100% with you. This guy clearly has no idea what he’s doing and the sense of fear amongst everyone there (spearheaded by the leader of course) is literally palpable. Meaning… it was very palpable to that shark who was there to experience it up close and in person. So yes, this situation could and should have been avoided. That being said, I couldn’t help myself but to point out that above that…. This situation DEFINITELY could have been avoided if these people had considered, “I’m following a ‘ shark expert’ I’ve never met into the deep blue to expose myself to arguably the most dangerous species of shark there is. Maybe I shouldn’t dive with sharks. There are a lot of better ways to spend a vacation…” 🤦🏼♂️… as much as I support shark diving / any other activity that brings joy / connection to other beings, I can’t really blame anyone beside EVERYONE here for deciding to get in the water - a habitat that they are ENTIRELY unfamiliar, clumsy and goofy in (particularly with inexperience) - with a large tiger shark - an apex predator in its prime habitat, where it can see, hear, sense and move better than any human possibly could. Not to mention, experience or not, when you’re a human and your face to face with a large tiger shark, and that shark decides to predate, you’re done. There will be no “re directing”. There will only be a sudden attack, dreadful screams, and the inevitable water filled with red. to… have fun? I mean, to each their own… for real! But I think in today’s world, it’s important that adults take responsibility for their own personal actions. Nobody forced anybody to do this (that I’m aware of). The guide was indeed misguided, but so were these people! If ya don’t want to get bit by a shark. Don’t get in the water with them. Simple as that 🤷🏼♂️
Hey Andriana, Why don't you go to extend your 5 years in South Africa at Port St. Johns at "Second Beach" ?
🤣🤣🤣
I don't know whether your shark experience will be extended or stopped ! 🤣🤣🤣
Great and informative video ✌🏾
“Shark diving is good for sharks?” right, because they didn’t do so well for 450 million years before human “love & conservation”😂
You are totally right.Control and respect is imperative with these beautiful creatures.
If you worry them, they are the boss.Always.
Where is this happening? Red Sea?
How is the diver after the bite?
I've never gone on a guided shark dive. But I have freedived in waters with sharks. Other than a brief interaction with 2 nurse sharks (my fault), I have never experienced a close meeting. They almost always ignore me. I am just another creature in the water. And I don't look like their normal food source.
Tiger Sharks are so creepy to me. I see videos like this where they kind of slowly drift in to bite, like a zombie or something. Whereas a Great White Shark may charge in, and bite you in half, and before you know it, you're already dead.
A Tiger Shark gives time for the panic to set in.
never turn your back on a predator, thats just plain stupidity
Hey. Is there a way to go for shark diving with you??
In your experience, what would be the max amount of divers suitable for a group dive with sharks if you were supervising? Keep up the amazing content, Andriana 😊
Thank you for spreading truth & awareness, they’re NOT ‘mindless killing machines’.
Yes they are. Of course they are.
"I am a nice shark, not a mindless eating machine. If I am to change this image, I must first change myself. Fish are friends, not food "
@@Him.Me.Q.and.P beat me to it xD
Definitely not mindless. But "killing machines", for sure.
100% they're apex predators that need to be respected, but are far from mindless. they're intelligent, curious animals that, much like dogs, unfortunately only have one way of testing what is and what isn't food: their mouth. The way people instantly jump to villainize sharks when most of the time humans don't even know they're sharing the water with a shark because generally they're not interested in us is so frustrating 🙄
And do you know the company where this guide came from?
As an islander,Imma tell you what they did wrong 🙄they went into the water 🥴😆
Just because you can’t swim, don’t be annoyed others can
Of course, you are not going to blame the shark because that's how you make your living. Tiger sharks should not be interacted with by divers. They are predators and need to be avoided and not connected with.
Great detailed breakdown of the video.
Also isn't it better to have some types of poles to redirect sharks? Especially for people who aren't experienced with the concept.
Great thoughts!
Your videos make interactions with tigers look easy! I have a feeling this could encourage people to go diving with them
Or you could just not dive with an apex predator 🤷🏽♂️ Tiger sharks are known as the garbage cans of the sea because they will eat anything including you 🍽️
Bruce: If you meet a human in the water he will give you a fish. If not...
I’ve had a tiger follow me and I couldn’t help but swim away and I think that’s what drawn it too me.. I wasn’t intentionally looking for sharks I was just snorkelling. The one that was curious about me was half the size of those in this video it was perhaps 6ft but it was enough to get me out of the water as I was terrified.. my experience lasted all of a min but it felt to me the tiger was sneaky and pretend it had no interest, it appeared to swim past but then did a quick turn towards me… scary stuff!
Regardless of my personal opinion regarding shark feedings, and my mostly general disdain for much of social media lol, I'm stoked to see where so many knowledgeable people can now get ahead of a video like this and truly explain what the issue was.
Years ago we wouldn't have been able to add context to this. The message would have automatically been sharks are evil monsters. Which is so far from the truth. What this video showed me more than anything is that the amount of patience (while being nervous no doubt) that this tiger showed was incredible.
I glad to see you and others making this video and letting people know. This guide (and operator) really need to be looked at. This is unacceptable.
I can't wait till I see a tiger shark this size in the wild! Or any shark really! Except a Mako. Lol. That's a personal issue but I'm working on it.
Name and shame.
You are asking not to support these operators, which is perfectly reasonable given the circumstances but who are they? We need to know who they are in order to avoid them.
I do not know the exact operator for this situation but doing research into companies you want to go with is huge to avoid this kind of situation!
@@andriana_marine As with your Parachute example, it is scary putting your life in someone else's hands while assuming they know wth they are doing. Research is key.
What they did wrong in the video? Scuba diving with very dangerous apex predators.
Shark diving 101 watch your back or don't dive with sharks period
A shark and a tiger in 1 animal ,no thanks
Would anyone go walking with wild lions? And on top of that bring a carcass with you. Not to mention the fact that on land we have more control than in water.
Shark Diving Tip Number 2: Don't Shark Dive
When i go shark diving i want you to be my guide you are awsome and i love your videos
I’ll give you the best tip: don’t swim with sharks - thank me later 😉👌
That ‘guide’ should be sacked and the dive centre fined or closed down
I'd probably go with the closed down option, but a thorough investigation is surely necessary.
Have you ever seen a shark attack and what do you think of Porpoises in captiviy?
One big issue is you is certain popular holiday locations with Tigers, like the Maldives, they sell a package of accommodations, food and dives. Most divers aren’t researching the dive operators, only the accommodations
Yeah, why would you research, only your life depends on it...
I have a question, it has to do with the story of the Red Sea attacks and this is how the story was told so please correct me if i have it wrong, its something that made me think shark diving could be dangerous, look at the oceanic white tip that was biting swimmers arms and mid section in the Red Sea off Egypt, the shark responsible had a nick in its fin and was recognised to be a regular at a shark feeding spot, the shark feeding was discontinued and this shark continued looking for its food source and was biting these people where it would usually receive a fish, now if this story is what really happened then that would suggest that shark diving is teaching sharks to associate people as a food source, wouldn't it ?
That's a very good question; and it is scary to think about it.
@@9xqspx6 yes I think so too.
Technically, yes, it could condition these animals to associate humans with free food. However, that would require extensive, purposeful "training," like Pavlov's dog. Moreover, not all dive operations use bait. Like whale watch businesses cannot guarantee you will see a whale, many dive operators cannot guarantee you will see a shark. Depending on where you are, and depending on the time of year, you may have a better chance of seeing sharks. But, as she said, you would need to rely on the experience of the local operators; good ones know their waters best.
Yes, there are predators and there are prey; it's been that way for at least the last half-billion years. But, we all share this planet; no one species has exclusive rights to it. So, it's important that humans understand and appreciate the myriad of other creatures that also live here. And, through careful, responsible, conscientious observations, it's possible to learn to co-exist with Nature in peace and genuine respect.
of course it is. why is it illegal to feed bears? because they dont want bears to learn that where there are humans there are food. even if they dont feed them its really bad. sharks are naturally pretty nervous about humans and usually stay away. but the more these shark divers swim with them, the less nervous they get. and you can see them becoming less and less nervous. starting to swim right up to people and bump them.
@@thereadersvoice thank you 👍
All SCUBA training these days is abysmal and unsafe, BUMS ON SEATS IS THE GOAL
That's awesome but would you ever consider coming to California to do shark diving? I know it's a new interior territory lots to explore but I would love that.
"yeah babe, lets dive with an 850 lbs apex predator in its own environment where we move like shit this weekend, its gonna be so much fun, what could possibly go wrong?"
We even know with our pet cats you don’t jerk your hand around nervously like that. It makes ANY animal uncomfortable.
I dive with Emerald Charters out of Jupiter, Fl.....they are a GREAT shark diving charter!!!!!
Lack of responsibility
Why are you criticizing what the people are doing? Rule #1 is don’t be stupid aka don’t get into the waters with sharks swimming.
