Only reason that person hadn't gotten attacked is because that animal was probably already full of full belly

Don’t understand why people have to swim that far from the beach and then alone…even the chance of an attack is low, but they still give it the best opportunity.

Lone swimmer EASY LUNCH...

Don't swim out of your depth

I'm sorry but I gotta be straight... how dumb can one be.? This is California. If that shark whackd that swimmer, it would've been good night John Boy - and it'd be the swimmer's fault 💯%

Does he have a death wish or what, dope.

I cage dived (1st time ever) with great white sharks at Isla Guadalupe off of Baja, learned so much about them being that close and seeing how they reacted to us. The big adults are very wary and very reluctant to make any rash decisions, yet they were curious. Huge up close, the girth is just nuts. They were very gentle.. until the crew dropped a tuna head off the boat suspended by a rope about 10 yards from the cage. One shark dove straight down until we could not see it anymore, then rocketed straight back up and hit that tuna head with such force that we could feel the energy underwater. We watched the whole thing that close. They never bumped our cage or acted aggressively at all towards us. The crew said that particular shark (13 ft male) that hit the tuna like that shows up every year and does not disappoint.

God had an Angel over someone this day.

Sweet dude! You're in the club now!

See the size of that brown trout tailing the swimmer?? Massive.

was the drone operated by the guy on the boat?

Swimming wear great whites are? This person must have a superiority complex. Loser.

why anyone feels compelled to swim in the ocean is beyond me. its not what we are designed to do and not our habitat

I agree drones should be mandatory at beaches to help spot sharks and warn swimmers

Sheesh guy is way to far out! Very lucky! Reminds of the man Simon from Australia. 😣

Watching the video of Simon Nellist that got killed & eaten by a great white shark in little bay Australia gives me nightmares poor guy didn’t stand a chance, this guys lucky that the shark wasn’t either hungry or not interested either way when you swim in the sharks home you’re risking your life,

"skin o my teeth."

One day!

We are not a "mistaken identity" as soooooooo many types of people want to say. The ocean is their domain. They know exactly what is in their domain. What to attack and what to stay away from. White pointers are not blind. As all predators, be it lions, sharks, whatever...they take out the weak, old and slow prey. We are a slow moving meal. We may not be their choice on their menu, like a steak dinner, but if they are hungry and don't want to expend a lot of energy on trying to catch a fast seal. They will attack us. Go check out "Sharks Happen" RUclips channel. Hal, tells it like it is, and doesn't bs you with hidden agendas and political reasons for why the White pointers DO attack humans. Some attacks are territorial: get out of my area. Some attacks are to predate.

Only takes once and your not swimming anymore.

What will you do if you capture an attack?

Stupid sob..then the man eating shark must be hunted down like a criminal who made a poor choice... you don't take a walk in the African savanah where you know the lions are lurking around...and worse, dressed like a zebra..

Looks like he had a mask and snorkel?

Swimming in Monterey Bay during White Shark Season is insane.

Imagine a drone lowering over your head and calmly whispering there's a Great White Shark swimming behind you 🤣🤣🤣

Swimming that far out in the Red Triangle? Nuts!

humans are so inept in the water.

Amazing footage. It is so difficult to piece together this behaviour with the recent events in Sydney. Why did that shark attack and eat a human and this one swam on by without incident?

Seeing this video a year later, I realized I should thank the man that made it possible! Thank you, Eric Mailander! 😊

So next time I'm in the water I'll be more afraid of the drones

What sort of idiot goes swimming in shark infested waters

Lucky, thank heavens. Shark must not have been hungry.

I used to live in Aptos and more than once sitting on the beach the sea lions would come on the beach and be barking like mad we knew that the sharks were around. Sea lions are pretty damn big and they would come up next to you scared shitless

Ice cold Monterey Bay (freezing even in the summer) is ALWAYS infested with great white sharks!

People who swim in these waters are just dumb period

I find this to be one of the more creepier GW encounters found here on YT. First of all it is closer than most drone vids and second it shows best how fast the shark can get around you to "investigate" you from the behind

That swimmer is a newb. No experienced open water swimmer wears a freestyle snorkel in open water. Nor do they go out in well known "sharky spots" without a group. Safety in numbers.

Nice footage.

The swimmer is all alone, don't think surfers gatherings deters a GW. Think it's related to their personality and how hungry they are that they will attack

Absolutely baffling. I’ll never understand why some people are never bothered by sharks and others end up being shark shit? Just baffling.

Great timing to catch that silent action! I appreciate it machismo as I myself once was a naive swimmer- diving at Ano Nuevo just 100 years off the island of seals and never thought about any 'sharks' (Hey, I was from Connecticut!) Thanks!

I would never swim deep out in the red triangle alone

I grew up surfing in the L.A. area in the 1970s and moved to Santa Cruz in 1979. I think it was 1980 or 1981 when a surfer was killed by a shark at Spanish Bay in Monterey. Prior to this incident I never saw or barely thoughts of sharks when I was in the water. I have surfed at several spots up and down California where shark bites have occurred. Now I think about it every time I enter the water.

You have to have some guts to swim that far out in California…. Talk about lucky

Sharks are not mindless killers , highly intelligent and studies show they are even capable of affection, hard to believe.

If this doesn't advocate that sharks aren't mindless killing machines I'm out. That thing could fuck that swimmer up if it wanted.

That's it! Never drinking water again! 🤔🤔😯

Floundering around on top of open water isn't swimming. It's baiting. Only a matter of time.

That was actually terrifying to watch. The swimmer was too far away from shore to reach in time if the shark really went in for the kill.

The swimmer was being tracked by a great white. He was lucky to slip away. Gives you nightmares just looking at it.
