RARE MASSIVE 6-GILL SHARK SIGHTING AT 3300 FT DEPTH!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 січ 2008
- This six-gill shark (Hexanchus) was filmed during a submersible dive off the northeast coast of Molokai at a depth of 1000m (3280ft). The 2 red laser dots are 6 inches apart, resulting in a length of about 18 ft for the shark.
Great ecstatic live commentary by University of Hawaii Oceanography Professor Jeff Drazen!
Many thanks to Dr. Craig Smith (University of Hawaii) and Dr. Eric Vetter for permitting release of this footage which was obtained as part of their research data set.

I love the guy say "look at how thick it is"
My grandfather is a fisherman in Moloka'i and he used to tell us stories of a at least 16 ft shark that he would spot. I thought it was just an old wise tale to scare us kids, but this video could proove his story true. A tribute to my Aumakua....Moloka'i mo' bettah!
Wow, you almost never hear Moloka’i brought up. I lived there for a number of years, what a wonderful hidden treasure your island is! Moloka’i moh bettah indeed!
Your grandfather was full of shit
@@Realtrollking2988 the estimates for this one are 12-18 feet.
Great whites often break 15 feet.
So do many other sharks along the equator get close.
It's very reasonable to get a shark around 15 feet, stop being an ass.

"This guys got a meter wide head, look how thicc he is"
We did about a dozen dives for this project and on nearly all the deep dives we saw one or sometimes several of these 6-gill sharks (Hexanchus griseus). So there appears to be a community or small population of them to be thriving off the northeast coast of Molokai. But the one in this clip was by far the largest one was have seen. Thanks for your interest!
Wow really? I’m from big island and I’ve only swam with hammerheads and reef sharks (probably a couple tigers) I can only imagine how crazy it would be to be next to a 20+ foot prehistoric Goliath like that...

Do you get the Great Hammerheads in your area?
They can reach 18ft - 20ft.
Tigers can but its rare.
They spotted a 18ft female in 2018 in French Polynesia.
I always thought if a truly large individual over 15ft was found, it would be around the Hawaiian islands. Lol
I have an interest in all sharks but mostly do most of my research on GWs.
Big Blue (well known GW) was spotted off the coast of Hawaii, on her migration from Guadalupe Island, Mexico and shes about 21.5 ft.
Pacific Sleeper Sharks may be out in the island areas as well, but very few sightings so far, they live at around the same depth and deeper than the 6th Gill and Prickly sharks hang out.
They did spot a 23ft female Sleeper off Oahu at 6300ft.
The 2 red dots from the laser scaler are calibrated to be 6 inches apart at all distances. You can measure the shark by freezing frames and counting the multiples of 6 inches that make up the length of the animal. Give it a try!

Okay so the last video they posted was 7 years ago. The creator of this channel probably doesn't even think about this channel anymore and yet here we all are because of the youtube algorithm. I hope they check back on it one day and see how their video blew up finally. Also holy crap an 18 foot shark.

1:00 “look how thicc he is!”
Nobody claimed it to be 15-20m long. The estimates of 4-6m (12-18ft) are based on the known distance of 15cm between the 2 red laser dots. You are welcome to give it a try and count up the number of times you can fit the scaler onto the shark.
Thanks for your input!

I said 15ish.... dude was up there in the food chain
dude, thats awesome, but what were those pipes and stuff down there? crazy footage though..imagine that thing touching you underwater.... :S
Future
This comment is older than my cousins
That’s how they take soil samples, they use the robotic arm to press down on the pipe and then succ it back up into the tube
😎 I've conditioned my body for holding my breath as long as possible, so that I can start a new hobby of "deep sea snorkeling". ^This is typical of the depth that I dive to, so I run into a LOT of these deep water sharks while snorkeling. I even spotted one at the comparably shallow depth of 1,900 feet last weekend, on my way down to 4,400 feet. 😁👍
If you attempted that deep of a snorkel dive then this must be your ghost we are replying to
Try closing your eyes and listening to this.
I was in middle school when you guys uploaded this 🤣🙏 hope you guys are well. Cheers 🍻
The pipes and stuff are the robotic manipulator of the submarine, seen at the beginning to the left, and a set of sediment samplers that were used for the project.

I just LOVE hearing the reactions of the researchers throughout this video!! :)
Rare indeed! This is very cool, thanks to everyone involved for sharing.
Insane searching sixgill sharks and finding the actual video I watched as a kid with a shark fascination back in 2008.
For once, the word "awesome" actually fits. Just incredible. Makes you wonder what else is down in the deep ocean.
Great work, guys. Keep it coming!
g.
amazing! they find new things every time they go down there. i could watch deep sea stuff like this for hours lol
@Depressed lol
U aight bruh?
Despite being thallasophobic, I love seeing what's at the bottom of our oceans (since I'll never work up the courage to go there) because all the creatures are so weird. It's amazing what happens when you remove just light from a habitat.
Floofie and add immense pressure
I am also super thallasophobic. (I visit San Francisco a lot and am always disappointed that I can’t visit Alcatraz because I’m scared of the boat. :c) I equate it to watching a horror movie. I’m terrified but kind of get enjoyment out of being terrified. Too bad actually being in the situation isn’t fun.
I just love to see deep sea creatures to bad if I ever get the chance to go to the deep sea I would be to afraid
Sucks for you that’s your purgatory when you die 😂
Well, many people CANT swim that far into the depths...lol it is most ROVs doing the sight seeing for us lol
Seeing this after 13 years is a blessing from the UA-cam gods
Indeed this was probably the main reason why we felt that this clip would resonate: It's not the biggest shark ever seen, nor is it a new species. It captures a moment when an experienced pro meets that kid he was when he started out so many years ago. Thanks!
It's a 6-gill shark, species Hexanchus griseus. Information regarding this clip can be found right next to it on the upper right side of this page: "This six-gill shark (Hexanchus) was filmed...."
You still alive??
Beautiful creature. Look how easily it moves in the water!
I know its kindof cute in a weird way
Welcome to Jurassic Park!!! always cool seeing the Prehistoric 6-Gilled Shark.
The fish, called Hexanchus griseus (blunt nose sixgill shark) did not appear to be scared, maybe a little startled. It may have been blinded by the lights. Our vantage point insided the sub is almost identical to the camera positions. So you see what we saw. Do you think it is noticing or even reacting to the cameras? Thanks for your interest!
Very Nice! These sharks are a real pleasure to dive with, They get curious and will swim right up to you. Kinda freaky if you are not expecting something back big to saddle up next to you.
Wow UA-cam recommendations decided to show me this at 2 am, wonderful

Lol the guy in the back who said "look how *THICK* he is."
No, everything stayed intact on this encounter. But agitated sharks and especially amber jacks (Kahala) have punched out lights, dislodged cameras and also knocked themselves out, crashing at full speed into the sub's high strength steel command sphere.
Thanks for your interest!
Great footage of an ancient creature!
Nature never ceases to amaze us all. That shark is big, and to whoever said that it wasn't that big, it's still pretty damn big. It's also amazing how it didn't just knock out the sub-thingy's sensors or whatever it used.
And also, at first I thought it was like a fog-demon thing with the red eyes and stuff for the first two seconds, lol.
An 18 footer?? Impressive find!
According to the Ichtyologist on the expedition it was a H. griseus.
Thanks for your interest!

Filmed in 2006 at depth of 3300. The video quality is amazing. But in the backyards of local woods we can’t even get a decent footage of Bigfoot.

He's surprisingly slow for such a large shark. Then again, his food isn't going anywhere, what's the rush?
Excellent video! Thanks a bunch for sharing. 5+
I'm pretty sure this is a species of sleeper shark, a genus named after their sluggish speeds.

So cool! I love sharks and I love Shark Week! 💙🦈
Wow! Absolutely amazing!
The 2 red laser beams are exactly parallel and the dots are 6 inches apart at any distance. So if you freeze a frame and count the number of times the 2 red dots fit on the shark, you can get a pretty good idea of how long or wide it is. It is probably not accurate to the inch but certainly to within a foot or two.
Thanks for your interest!

If 6 inches. That small dude.
If 6 feet dat is big

everything in his creation is beautiful you say? you mean like diseases? bacteria? cancer? death? unfairness? and everything else? plus these animals will most likely eat you if you happen to be around them. you only say its beutful behind a screen, would like you to say that when you are next to it.
john vines dude yes everything death disease unfairness every damn thing in the universe . Amd yes it will kill if i am stupid to be there and yes it is the almighty who has put reasoning into everything . Im not here to debate just to let you know the reason he said subhanallah
@Aquario Hub
You think I don't know the reason he said it? but he attributed that everything is a WOW to ALLAH !!! And I Said, there is no ALLAH or juju monster that is responsible for it, I know Islam very good, and all the allah crap, I speak Arabic, and I also read the Quran and both Arabic and English, I just dont get the Allah crab. my point is, this has nothing to do with allah.

sleeper shark for sure
Poseidon Flow it is not a sleeper shark, while they are distantly related, (the order of the sleeper sharks are the closest order to hexanchiformes (cow sharks) if you do not include the frilled sharks having their own order (it is debatable)) they are not sleeper sharks, they are cow sharks which includes sevengills and sixgills. This sharks is hexanchus griseus (bluntnose sixgill shark) it lives at great depths and is a different species to the other sixgills (Hexanchus nakamurai and Hexanchus vitulus).
Yep, I think Sara’s right. The shark in this video clearly has six gills. Pacific sleepers have five, I think.
That's the second biggest 6-gill shark I've ever seen!
