- Great shark encounters at Tiger Beach and Bimini with Tiger sharks, Great Hammerhead sharks, Lemon sharks, Nurse Sharks and Carribean Reef Sharks!
The Bahamas, and especially Tiger Beach (for the Tiger sharks) and Bimini (for the Great Hammerheads), is ‘the’ place in the world for shark diving without cage.
Aboard of M/V Dolphin Dream we made 18 dives during a week at sea. After category 5 hurricane Dorian in September 2019 the visibility underwater was still a bit murky in November. The dives and encounters with the sharks were amazing, but it was difficult to do proper video shooting, we made the best of it.
I know there is discussion about shark feeding. Is it right to feed sharks to attract them and bring them in contact with divers? It’s for sure a difficult question. But one thing is clear, the feeding will bring them very close to the divers, so you can experience there enourmous power. Tiger sharks and Great Hammerheads deserve great respect.
Sharks are the most misunderstood animals in the ocean. Contrary to what many people think, sharks are normally not interested in attacking people. The opposite is true, 100 million sharks are killed each year by human, 3 sharks a second.
This movie is the result of around 12 hours of 4k video footage. Shot in November 2019.
Used camera’s:
- Sony FDR-AX700 4K with Gates housing, Gates GP34 Wide Angle Port and Sealife Sea Dragon 2500 lights
- GoPro Hero 8 Black
- DJI Mavic Pro 2

Incredible footage. However as I see more footage of people hand feeding sharks it reminds me that it has been proven sharks will associate people with a free meal of hand fed enough and if desperate enough for food might attack divers in search of fish. Happened near India a few years ago
Magnificent video. It beaks my heart knowing that sharks are getting decimated. Protecting them should be a number one priority and enforcement must be taken seriously.
Thank you for taking us into this great underwater-world with these amazing creatures..... which I really love! 🦈🌊
No words... amazing.. beautiful... greetings from Croatia my friend! 👍🤗🤗🤗
Fantastic filming and editing Jurrien. Great stuff! Can't wait to visit or get back to some of the sites you highlight. Best!
Crazy video, I was looking up shark 4k and found this. This has to be a unreal experience! This made me feel like I don’t understand our planet fully. Look at the creatures that live here. Unreal. I’ve been considering learning to dive. But I’m scared of sharks haha but seeing you guys feeding them made me think differently because they didn’t even attack. Thanks for sharing! Take care!
😍😍😍😍. I love sharks!!! Congratulations!!! Great footage and very good work
Wow, so mamy diffrent kinds of sharks during one dive! Sooo close:) beutiful video-thanks;)
Thanks! Actually it were 18 dives..
@@JurrienWiss i am very positivly jealous but at least i saw one u didnt have there Thresher sharks ( dont tell me that shot was bad:):)
Waiting for new videos:)
... Amazing!
I have never seen interactions among sharks and humans. Truly beautiful to witness. I have a better understanding of these amazing creatures.
wow i cant get enough of ur staff
I am curious, is feeding sharks a good idea? Perhaps it makes no difference, I just wonder if later on, it becomes hazardous for recreational swimmers and divers? Like bears in Montana, once they get fed, they actually seek out people instead of shying away from them. Maybe a biologist can answer.
Amazing, like all other films!
Beautiful😍and, dangerous😨
So many sharks
WONDERFULL VIDEOS jURRIEN - THE BEST
The cinematography is outstanding. Btw those sharks look cute
I wish i could give one more like:) YT should give possibility like that for amazing video like yours:) at least i watched it at least 10 times:)
I'll love to dive in the water along with them just to feel the energy that they bring! Also, we have to educate more sharks and their habitat and their true enemy that is men!!
I love all your videos, you guys improved a lot and the edition is amazing. You guys should consider do videos of how you record and edit, have you considered this?
Thank you! I like making underwater videos, editing tutorials are not my cup of tea :)
Hi, wow what a great video! Do you use LUTs for this cinematic look? Thx and greetings from Austria
Thanks! Nop, i don't use LUT's.. I do manual color grading..
Hello how do you do the white balance do you use a white or gray card? I really like your videos on your channel. I also have an FDR-AX700 I'm grateful for every tip.
Thanks! No, this time I did not use a white card.. I've used the sandy bottom for white balancing. Next time I will definitely use a white card! Great tips for the best underwater settings can be found at: www.gateshousings.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/AX700-Z90-Housing-Recommended-Settings-R2.pdf
Thank for the great video :) Which liveaboard did you take to get to Tiger beach?
Got it from the credits. Thanks.
Idk. I bet a few people that bobbed in the ocean after their ships sank... might have a different opinion about sharks attacking humans.
Hello what camera profile of the FDR AX700 did you use and how did you do it with the white balance?
I normally shoot in BT709, 25 fps, shutter 50, ISO max. 400, manual white balance.. and afterwards a lot of color grading
Hallo welk cameraprofiel van de FDR AX700 heb je gebruikt en hoe heb je het gedaan met de witbalans?
I thought it's not a good idea to feel wildlife, isn't it?
Bahamas🇧🇸
Shark are incredible and lovely criatures, they very inteligent, please don't kill sharks 🙏
5 sharks
😮😮😮😮😮😮❤❤❤❤❤❤💪💪💪💪💪😳😁😳😁😳🙏🙏🙏Bjotifol tank yu lov dis
😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Like all your other videos it was beautiful, of course even for this one I see 2 morons give you a thumbs down ( probably are the human excrements that eat shark fin soup). What I wish for the idiots who eat such things is to be eaten by the sharks ASAP. Cheers Jurrien and thanks again for the amazing video and awareness you try to bring with your work.
🤣🤣🥰👍👍👍👋👋👋
Thank you for sharing these beautiful moments! 🥰 It's heartbreaking to realise that people kill sharks, 3 sharks per second 💔 stop the violence against sharks!
This is beautiful cinematography like all your videos, but people absolutely should not be feeding sharks, ESPECIALLY by hand. This alters sharks' natural behaviors, which can lead to them associating humans with food. Increasing the likelihood of shark attacks on humans endangers sharks even more as people are less likely to protect sharks and more likely to hunt them or support mass killings of sharks :(
