In three feet of water just a little bit offshore are bait fish. That’s what sharks are looking for. Usually when they attack us it’s an accident, they’re chasing bait. Don’t swim in the morning or evening when they hunt. They do hunt all day too but mostly morning and evening when the winds aren’t blowing so much. Hurricane is making them hunt little fish. I’ve boogie boarded the gulf coast and fished since I was 5. I’m 57 . I have had sharks scrape my legs by accident, please just use this as advice to help. Also never swim alone or drunk. Please.
Are you kidding!? Really. Fyi. If you go in the ocean you are TRESPASSING!!!!! taking a chance... Climate changed Has changed everything! .. talked bout they getting bait fish.. really! They are hungry due to climate change....then you telling people to swim in the afternoon..it better...yeah its a better MENU....BETTER AND THIS SHARK GOT A 4 FOR 1 DEAL!!!
Thank you, waited for some good advice. N, about how long should we wait before going to this beach? I think this is further down than where I like to go but still...
@@WarriorMichelle57 From a sea otter perspective, it is alike aircraft, one has to come to terms with reality and there is no giving up, be aware, very attentive. I go out past the third-forth sand bar with 18 feet of water, swim right next to the bottom facing up watching the Sun... One time about 20 miles up from South Padre, not a vehicle in sight, was chest deep and was just doing it with my girlfriend I saw a 20 foot Tiger Shark just 40 feet away watching me, I turned to see the girl obviously very frightened backing up, a fair distance already, and not going to inform me!
@@WarriorMichelle57accident? 😂 no accident...
@@bardmadsen6956doing it? 😂
When they are hunting in that second gut get out of the water. A Bull shark and they run in packs. I fished there for forty years.
can’t be a bull shark those have a little triangle poking out of the back of their caudal fin, this one doesn’t.
@@Derek-mt4ps From what I could see in the video, I have had Bulls, black tips, and small hammer heads swim close enough in the second gut that I just got out of the water.
They’re saying more like a tiger shark.
Did you need a bigger boat?
it is a very large blacktip. I am a surfer on spi all the time and have lifeguarded there. It has black tipped fins and the triangle caudal fin
Someone should have been yelling up and down the beach to get out of the water.
Especially it being the 4th ,They love to attack on the 4th.
On a crowded beach that is a normal thing to do. It could be a hammerhead shark following a school of small fish, like sardines for their next meal.
When someone yells barracuda, nobody pays attention, but you yell "shark!",and we got panic on our hands, right in the middle of 4th of July weekend
@@LouisMendoza-s1gamazing quote from Jaws 1
@@Nanna-MOjaws
Looks like theirs 3 or 4 people who have been attacked
The Texas game warden confirmed that it was only 2 people
It was around 7 people I was there
Shark attacks are rare though. I’m a shark expert and I say you should get back in the water.
@@QuanPookie the shark probably thought it was a fish moving around bc sharks don’t eat meat they eat fish so the people mostly got scared started moving a lot and then the shark bit them and yeah so they don’t js randomly attacked people
@@Analee-ri4hl Well they’ve been “randomly” attacking more people than usual lately.
I’m thinking the hurricane is pushing a lot of sea life west. Had the same experience on the east coast.
Yeap
Why was nobody warning the swimmers to get out of the water?!?! Just because a shark is on a line doesnt mean it cant bite people. In fact u are probably more at risk cuz the shark is so mad
Sharks live in the water we don’t.. always watch it 6
Rethinking my trip to SPI. I don't want to become a shark appetizer.
We just made it here to spi and someone’s caff got bite off
If you stay out of the water , you will be fine. The pool at the hotel will be a "shark free zone" if you want to swim.
I was there 2 weeks ago, no problem. But then again, any decision made outside your home is a risk
Between the shark attacks rt now, the reports of lots of jellyfish, and the effects that hurricane Beryl is going to have on the rip tides, be very cautious this week. Beryl may be taking aim at that area once it crosses the Yucatan.
I wouldn't swim anywhere with bull sharks.
Many people don't realize that many attacks occur in shallow water often waist deep. Prayers for those injured.
because thats where most people are
How many?
Chief Brody to Hooper in Jaws :
"Is it true that most shark attacks happen in 3ft of water less than 50 ft from the beach?"
Hooper :
"Yeah!"
Sharks will chase fish toward shallow water to capture them, saw it on discovery channel shark week
That’s a very big Bull Shark.
Nah doesnt look like a Bull, looks very much like the silhouette of a fairly big Tiger Shark, which wouldnt be uncommon given how far south it is in Texas, those waters off of the Yucatan are perfect for Tigers.
@Handcannon77
Doesn't look like a tiger shark dorsal to me. Looks too narrow.
Well which is it folks?
@@Handcannon77 Texas waters are full of tiger sharks. Search UA-cam for 12' tiger caught on beach in CC by Team Hard Life. That shark doesn't look like a tiger and is more than likely a juvenile bull shark.
It looks and behaves like a hammerhead
this is terrifying!! i was literally on vacation there last week😳😳😳
Me too
We just got back today bruh 😭
what where you there for??
I plan on taking my mother in law swimming there this week😏
@@waynerandles6126 omg🤣🤣🤣
Nothing wrong with swimming in a pool.
Or coming up here to the Great Lakes where you can swim in clean, clear water and play on gorgeous beaches without fearing the aquatic life.
Some people can't afford paying for a swimming pool.
And? It is their home.
Then give your property back to the Indians
Hungry, hungry, shark coming in for food
Sharks live in the ocean 😮
No duh Sherlock
@@animalarts4027 😁
Monkeys live in the jungle.
Shark: My beach too. Piss off
Pfft they won't hurt you.
@@PigtailPantrythey probably messed with it or smth if it js randomly got them
@@Analee-ri4hl why wld they dude, go read the articles
@@Vx.nitas_ bro I was there
@@Analee-ri4hl yeah then did they mess with it? Since you were there you know, right?
Shark:no photos please, I'm just on my way to lunch
😮 There were reports of a Great White Shark near South Padre Island earlier this year.
What’s happened in south father island is that 4 of July there were 4 sharks 🦈 and one or 2 take a bite to 2 person so be careful because there are sharks and jellyfish 🪼 be carful with your families
South “Father” Island? Really? 🤦🏻♂️.
I’m mom just sting by a jellyfish
Today
@@Mysisterisa It's tomorrow in some places.
@aideealfaro3628 *Padre Island. Where in the world are you from?
There hasn’t been a shark sightings in years at the island
Last year they caught some............
I was there last year and i saw one swimming near us… I got out fast!
I Paddleboard in South Padre quite frequently, I've seen them a few times. Water in SPI is murky most of the year, and Bulls like to hunt in low visibility waters. It is impossible to detect them, if you are standing in waist to chest high water.
Bull sharks are notorious for being there. They go into the bay to give birth!
The hurricane is driving them in.
You have to tell people on the beach because otherwise they won’t know.
They should know it’s the ocean sharks are always there…
I was thinking the same thing. I would have been the idiot running down the beach yelling for people to get out.
It's always entertaining to look at folks on the shore, from out in the waves. Part of the food chain. Once we enter the Ocean. One must accept that truth.
@@alleycat616 they’re not usually this close to shore taking bites of people.
@@idahardy4052 sharks are caught in the surf every day. ;)
The shark is just taking care of the intruder like any American would
Yes your so right
What are you talking about? America allows everyone into the country the border has been wide open for over 3 years
The border's been wide open for our entire nation's history.
Intruder all they are doing is swimming, not fishing taking their food sources, like your fishermen who fish for their food they eat, or wade in the water fishing 🤔
went last weekend. lots of jellyfish
Stop depleting the oceans of their food!!!
Well said
😂😂😂 you know how much fish is in the ocean especially one that top of the food chain in the ocean, come on now.
@@SnapWrench3s What? Ignorant comment of the decade! Okay, I have a few moments, so do tell?
@MelCowart-xu8xr no you tell me where there isn't enough fish in the ocean. Show me facts, and I will change my opinion. That the attack was due to, Not enough food sources in the ocean. So you please explain
WHAT A COWARD you RECORD THIS AND NOT TELL ANYONE?
Coward?
@@spiderman0863are you saying you recorded this? WHO records sharks and doesn’t warn anyone ? Soar loser this could have been prevented smh
@controlyournumbers100 There obviously were NO people in the water where he was filming. You have no idea how far down the beach the person was who was attacked. Use your head.
@@lisas8244there obviously were people at the beach, use your head
The only coward is you talking crap.
Did you tell everyone
Where was this because I think I was there when it happened
By the Wanna Wanna hotel
In south father island
@@aideealfaro3628omg yes I was there😢😢
Well damn stay out of their territory this won't happen people
And they still went in the water.
I love the part where the shark doesn’t attack anybody like the title says
Nature is in control of the oceans. Understand the weather, and sea animals if you have to swim in the ocean carry a spear gun, large knife ,shark repellent. My ocean days stop at age 40 I’m 65 don’t have time to fight with jaws 😂 Be safe people as we age we get wiser.
More and more Shark attacks, I think they are pissed about all the junk in the ocean.
I would venture to guess surf fishing will attract them closer to the shore. When you put a bunch of hooks in the water with dead and bloody fish on the hook, you are bound to attract a few sharks closer to shore.
At least 2 women are lucky to be alive.. the sharks did quite a number on both of their legs.. it looked really bad
So where is the attack?
South Pedro Island
We got allot of sharks 🦈 down here man yall need be careful
Why can't sharks learn to share the ocean? They are not very polite !
Why is the shark so close to shore?
Because it’s his home.
sharks come into shallow water to feed on small bait fish that live in the shallows. It's a normal thing.
Too busy filming instead of warning people to get out the water. Sound an alarm
Didn’t a couple people a few days afterwards get attacked by sharks in Texas there
“Pretty cool”? You mean dangerous lady. DANGEROUS.
Yep, I see it. Yep, I see it.
Where is this ?
Shark livin his best life!
Shark is probably still spiting trying to get the mammal taste out of his mouth.
I'm guessing fishing chest deep on a sandbar off the Bolivar peninsula is a no go too
no chance for the invisible seal
Just stay out of the water for gods sake
No
@@amandacarullo8638 lol
I'd bet that's a bull shark. Very cool but scary af.
Visited PCB last September and had a 6 ft tiger shark circle my inflated float boat. I had drifted out from the shore just 6ft of water when my husband came to pull me back. They are common in the Gulf coast.
Much bigger than 6 feet
I wonder what species this shark is. The dorsal fin is quite large as is the distance between the dorsal fin and the tail. Large Bull shark? It was hunting in the shallows in the early afternoon contrary to what all the literature says about feeding habits.
Great white
@@simonev97 I don't think so. There was an aerial drone video of it, and it had that blunt nose and thick middle of a Bull shark.
Ataque de tiburón a una bajista. En la pantorrilla.
Le arranco el pie izquierdo y toda la pantorrilla, está muy grave porque perdió mucha sangre , fue un tiburón toro
So this is a video of a random shark doing what sharks do? Hunting in the shallows for fish? Did you not know sharks are in the ocean?
A tiger or blacktip chasing rays in the surf ahead of the storm.
Bait fish stay in shallow water for protection from large predators. Sharks eat bait fish and come into shallow water to feed. It's common to catch sharks in the surf when fishing for whiting, reds, pompano, black drum, trout or other table fair, even as shallow as the wade gut. If you can't see your feet in knee deep water, it's best to stay out because sharks also don't see well in murky water. I'm more concerned with stepping on a ray than I am worrying about sharks.
I knew a guy who lived in Texas. Was there for nearly 2 years and never seened one. Course, that was in El Peso. Anyways, that's why I don't go. Well that and the Donnel Trimp but that's a diffrunt story.
What kind of shark is it 🤔
Bull shark
What attack?? I lost 5 minutes of my life on this vid
Too close to the edge! Scary stuff!
Guys I was there in may
Any vids of the actual attack?🧐
on instagram
There's a pic of the woman (Twitter, etc.). Huge chunk taken out of her lower leg (pretty much entire calf muscle).
On Twitter
The scary thing is I was there literally 5 days ago
And that is scary how?
I could’ve got bit because I was far in the ocean
I'm in port aransas rn
Does anybody know if that's the first gut..??? Or the second one
The lady was just past the second bar but the shark followed them into the wade gut.
@@rickdavis2235 so into the second gut??
@@TexasForever7424 yes. she says she was out past the first bar but the shark continued to pursue her and her rescuers into the wade gut. Her husband was bitten on the leg and foot while dragging her to shore.
@@rickdavis2235 wow that's crazy I'm going to the beach soon but I do allot of surf fishing so I'm probably stay on second bar and throw from there
@@rickdavis2235 wow that's crazy...I'm going to be there soon..I do a lot of surf fishing...but will probably go up to the second sand bar and throw from there and walk back...but wanted to know where the shark was...cause that's rare for them to be past the first Sand bar into the first gut.
No se ve nada
They usualy way out there, not that close to the shore. Something must be wrong.
That’s not true at all! Just because you haven’t seen one doesn’t mean they aren’t around…. Sharks are absolutely in shallow waters..
You keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better swimming at the beach.
Sharks are always present in the surf. You just don't see them. This is nothing new and nothing wrong. Sharks like that love bait fish and bait fish love shallow water for protection from large predators.
So if these people saw it that close to the Beach, did they Alert Life Gurards/ Authorities?
Unsure if they did or not , but It could've saved others from being attacked!! 🙏❤💕😲😟😢
Why id nobody yelling SHARK!!! ??
I know it was today though
on behind attacks so for them to suspect it’s the same shark makes more sense cuz a whole group of sharks suddenly deciding humans are on the menu is very unlikely. Sharks can mistake humans for seals but this is unlikely due to the shark attacking multiple people sharks don’t like the taste of humans so this is not a shark mistaking humans for seals, sharks also don’t like to go near the shore at all due to them having the ability to get stuck. What time were the attacks? And what type of shark? Sharks hunt mostly at night and are more active at night as well. Some sharks are more aggressive than others but what is the reasoning behind the attacks? Does it feel threatened? Is it territorial? Maybe it has an injury making it act out. The temperature of the water also can affect the sharks mood. I feel like we need more info on this… sorry my sister is studying marine biology and I love sharks, though it’s never ok when a human gets bitten, I just find this behavior so odd. They seem to just be doing a small taste bite or nibble…
Blacktips come to Texas waters during the summer and are schooling sharks that move along the coastline usually within casting distance from shore. A school of blacktips and poor visibility could create the scenario of multiple attacks and sightings. PS... Texas sharks don't feed on seals. Sharks are caught every day down here from the beach, sometimes in the wade gut between the sand and the first sand bar (knee deep to waist deep water).
On access 14
Why isnt anyone saying Shark !!!!
I guess from now on peeing in ocean is out of the question. There aren't any portable pots at SPI.
Mankind is fishing the ocean food is at a limited supply. Sharks have to eat too!
It's close to the shore 😱
Women going in water on there cycle
So close to shore
jaws timed the date
You call that a shark? Come out to cape cod, we grow um big.
Bull shark?
Great White shark's have been around since the dinosaur's.
Bro I went to south Padre not to long ago
I was JUST there for the sea turtle hatchling release and I could see how little food there was for anything out there… Tarballs, plastic and hungry birds… My videos show some of what might have been leading up to this situation, if anyone is interested.
Seeing a Shark IS COOL - - But Seeing It So Close To Shore When There Are People Around = NOT ! These "Attacks" Along Shallow Shores are Due To Hungry Sharks Following Their Noses and Instincts to Find a Meal - The Bait Fish / Schools of Fish are Possibly More Active Near the Shoreline Due to the Choppy Hurricane Conditions Further Out At Sea. NO Matter What - - When you See a Shark Near a Beach You Should Be Walking Up and Down the Coast Alarming Others - Looking For Lifeguards To Sound an Alarm. Not Just Spectating with Your Kids Saying I See It - It's Cool. And If You Are Visiting The Shore - - Do Not Wade During Dawn - Early AM and Dusk When More Shark Feeding Is Likely to be Happening. They DONT WANT TO EAT YOU - - But If You Are In the Water Surrounded By Darting Medium Sized Fish ( That you CANNOT SEE OR FEEL ) Your Leg Just Might Get In Their Mouth.
Bait fish live in the shallows for protection and sharks feed in the shallows.
I can't believe there is a shsrk in the ocean.
This is why I stay ankle deep at the beach. Nope!
He smelled the blood 😳
leave it alone, it is in his habitat, where humans should not be, it is his waters, not yours!
Shark nibble on your leg to make sure you not food 😅 i guess they need to take a big bite to be really sure you not a seal.
By the Wanna Wanna hotel
sure about that ? I heard that was right by the copa or Isla grand at the other side of SPI
Yup wanna wanna. Says near access 14
The video may not be from there but the attack was near wanna wanna
@@stephenpena7813 Thanks bro. heard there are other attacks. so that's maybe whey .
