Is the diver with the wand the dive master? Seems to me his tapping his tank is to divert attention of the shark away from the other divers. I’ve dived with curious sharks, but none that were as curious as this one. That looked like a really dangerous scenario. I was watching his pectoral fins, they didn’t seem to show aggressive body language, but it seemed to me it sampled the taste of a fin of the guy at the surface.
Longimanus are not scared by anything they are bold ‘ they can turn aggressive mode anytime and if it comes fast to you this is definitely not to give you a hug ‘ ‘ Edit : don’t try the redirection thing with this kind.. a perfect meal you ll be. Title 💯 accurate 👍
This was a receipt for disaster. They should have gotten out of the water, and stop clicking the SCUBA tank with that metal rod, making a low frequency sound. What the hell were these people thinking. In a situation like that they should stop everything they were doing and come together under water, back to back and swim slowly back to the dive boat. White tips are dangerous.
They're waiting for the zodiac. Probably not enough air and/or too strong currents to get back to the dive boat. But I agree, I was watching this shouting DESCENT every third second. Theu guide should be able to save air if someone is short.
@@mikemalloy1681 Yes that's what I said. You called them white tips, they're oceanic white tips, or longimanus, and yes, although we dive with them they're considered dangerous (more unpredictable than dangerous, unlike bull sharks, which require strong skills to dive with)
I just finished a shark week in the Red Sea with Oceanics being the main attraction at deadalus. We were SPECIFICALLY and thoroughly trained in how to interact with this apex animal, what to do, what not to do In case of a close encounter (which we beautifully had). THIS IS WHAT NOT TO DO. What the hell were they thinking. This shark is super apex, intimidating and will not think twice about taking a chunk out of you if provoked and overly curious. Srsly I am shocked - don’t dive with them if you do not know how.
Shark week??? The concept is absurd in nature. Should be a week of happy diving away from sharks. Of course if we go messing with these animals sooner or later someone will be bitten. Isn’t the joy of diving, coral and colorful fish enough? No? We absolutely need the video of us flashing lights at these animals for social media? Because then we will get laid more? Give me a big fat break

Not sure what anybody did that was wrong...SHarks kept comin in close on their own...I didn t see anybody chasing them around or reaching out to touch them
Been there, done the Elphinstone dives 4 years ago. Good rules were/are: don’t harass them, don’t make sharp movements and above all stay below them. Those divers cleraly have little or no experience diving with dangerous sharks. They have been lucky. No comment on the DM ….

Even without the shark that safety stop is a mess. You've got people at different depths all over the place, not sticking in buddy pairs closely at same depth. Someone's DSMB has got wrapped up around another diver and seemed to be clipped on to a BCD?! Buoyancy control poor, everyone had drifted up to between 1-3m. Stay at 6m min for your stop, watch the shark closely from below - exit to the boat efficiently one at a time and wait for your turn at a safe depth/distance. R.E the shark - frantic tank bashing won't help - poking it and thrashing around neither. Stay calm and upright in your buddy pair or more.
Just started the vid, but no commentary so what are all the mistakes? :o The clicking is driving me crazy o-O dem bubbles everywhere ;-; one even screamed xD
Ok Just don't move faster.. don't even breath deeper.. don't get excited (they feel your heart-bit !) Don't keep away from your buddy just to shoot best photo. Don't stay longer time up on the surface next to the boats...on my multi-years experience as dive-guide on that hot-spot (Shagra based and other in the area)...luckely I had just One case of potential risk of accident because last diver was taking time by the zodiac for his last photo while 3 longimanus were turning around him.
On Egypt I found a person playing with a surfer snake and a piece of metal trying to kick the surfer snake out of the place I never use any kind of stick to play or joke with animals they usually tell me let s go together to the depths and they kiss me!!! And I am a freediver not a scuba duba. Hugs! Hope to come soon with the sharks and freedive!
I am still learning about scuba diving. I want to try it. Can someone explain what the wizard wand does? According to my PADI course it says it is used to piss sharks off and cause them to bite you.
To give you a more indepth answer, its simply a medal rod that Diving Pros use. For example, it can be used to wack against your own air tank to get the attention of other divers, as the noise is very loud and distinct. It can also be used to point at things, which can be useful when you are macro-diving (looking for very small stuff like Pygmy Seahorses). It is certainly not a shark defense stick. Also, it is a bit of a stretch to claim that it pisses off sharks. You could argue that it can catch the light and flash (which can look like a fish in distress), but in general, loud noises scare sharks off. Oceanic White Tips are very curious sharks though and not easily scared off. However, the diver didn't have many options except for using the stick. The bigger issue here was that everyone was flailing around a lot. Sharks are generally not dangerous to divers (but Oceanic White Tips are a bit of an exception), but moving in panicky ways, and not being close together can cause issues.
actually banging metal will attrack this type of shark....the dive master was kind of in a difficult position because he needed to get the attention of his divers and what he wanted them to do....but banging the metal on metal will make the sharks more curious...they are very attracted to unsual sounds in the water....potential distress and potential food source@@alexreef36
Die Abwehr mit dem kurzen Shark - Stick war absolut korrekt. 👍 Aber totale Anfänger mit Kameras, und panischen Verhalten, haben die Gruppe ins Schwitzen gebracht. 😓
I can't see relevant faults. Maybe the Xmas tree way of holding a bunch of devices. The local DM was doing his job and the visitors were standing still and together and keeping eye contact.
I would prefer to be armed with a big diving knife, but at least they didn't act like prey and didn't allow the shark to swim around them without facing it and reacting to it.
So I am not a shark diver, have dived with them 5 or 6 times but only reef sharks. So I thought that you diverted a too curious shark by directing their snout/nose and that was by the book or is that just tiger sharks (and I have no urge or experience diving with tigers)
@@pmgearthat woman who re-direct sharks is very dangerous. They are misleading the masses. She worked for discovery channel like 18+ years? Im certain sure they feed those tiger sharks a half day early. A shark with full belly wont attack. So in other words if you are in the sea its all about LUCK. Redirecting wont help if the shark is hungry. Sharks go by weeks wkthout eating. If the shark already ate then its your LUCKY day and it wont go after you maybe in this case redirect will help
Oceanic sharks become an attraction in Egypt for divers and we see a lot of situation that could end up in bad way. Too many uninformed and unexperienced divers in front of a potentially dangerous shark... here the situation with signaling safety gear, with an oceanic shark round doesnt deserve any comments...very lucky
typical longimanus shark investigation . Fantastic views how these oceanic whitetips can be and make people nervous . but with good body language just an extra excitement with no risk .
@@tomsolismusic then how come that thousands of scubadivers are not eaten or bitten daily, but only once in a blue Moon?? Usually they don't hunt for human.... although oceanic white tips tend to be more curious then other species 🤷
@@szabonora1988 it’s “than” lol. And before your head explodes know that I’m half serious. I get that you can dive with a shark and there are ways to do it with less risk. However if you’re in the middle of the ocean and swimming with sharks that are territorially and not use to humans being in their space you should expect this. It would be like going into the wildest part of the jungle and trying to pet a tiger that only knows hunting and eating. Plus sharks scare the crap out of me so I wouldn’t want to be out there especially with oceanic white tips
@@tomsolismusic I'm not mother tongue English....but "than" is to compare things and "then" is to express time, I used "then" because I expressed time....lol 😏 You will survive a shark encounter with bigger chances then a tiger or lion encounter Oceanic white tips are not territorial as they are living in open ocean (pelagic species) You are not supposed to swim in the middle of the ocean... especially not alone... First rule of diving: dont touch or pet wildlife So far I only have dived with reef sharks and nurse sharks, they were not aggressive at all, but probably I would come out of the water soon afterwards I saw a Longimanus.... not my favorite type of shark...
What a prime example of idiot human behaviour. Poking the shark away with a knitting needle, then using it to make shark- annoying-sounds, to encourage an aggressive response? Diving w/o a wetsuit, exposing skin in sunlit water? COME BITE ME!
They are so nice. Meet mine at Panorama-Reef. And there are just three rules: 1. Keep your wife between you and the shark. Else she is not on the photo. 2. If your shooting is done dive downwards, they search their meal at the surface and you are no mor in the focus. 3. RESPEKT the wildlife-animals (not only the sharks) they are no pets.

Good god man…these are extremely inexperienced divers! That’s exactly what NOT to do. Flailing your arms like that and kicking your feet like your drowning… what do they think is going to happen. You can tell the diver filming is panicking- also a big no no while diving. ESPECIALLY with sharks.
My tears are running... Whats wrong with this apes???? 😤😤 Why are they allowed to dive alone??? Now we know why some sharks are disturbed and bite humans... 😤😤

Better not to say; then people can just act superior without risking being proved wrong.😉
Agree with you.
Sometimes a little information can be dangerous.
Consult the experts, everytime. Real experts..
Tapping the tank. No.
Flailing around. No.
No wet suits. Bad
Staying still and vertical. No
And i bet a few pissed themselves as well. Lol.
That is a special safety stop
