Shark Dive Dubai Aquarium - Close Encounter

  • Ok, so this was my first aquarium dive at the Dubai Mall. Yes, this is a real shark and no editing/photoshop was done. To explain, I was watching the shark swim around. When I turned around to watch it I had too much air in my BCD and couldn't grip the rock. We were told to try not to breath out when a shark is above us because they can feel the vibrations of the bubbles. I also wasn't about to put my arm up to release the air and in the moment didn't think to pull my chord. Now to be honest, every time I'm at that mall I am just waiting to see someone in there get ripped to pieces lol. Well, now the time came for me to be that person. This shark obviously has the craziest teeth out of all the sharks in the tank so when he cut that corner and was in my face, my B hole puckered up quite a bit. He seemed like he was about 5 inches in front of me. I had a million thoughts going thru my head. At first was to take off, but instantly told myself no chance and dumb idea (I can't out swim a shark). Next thought, hey look, there's everyone watching, just waiting for that mauling lol. And of course I thought it was the end. But it also seemed to drag out and I remembered the laughing shark from Strange Wilderness. Overall, I think I handled my cool. After that was over my buddy I was diving with was trying to tell me to calm down. I was trying to explain to him I keep going up and I need to stay down. My dive buddy was a Brother from the Marine Corps so you know he wasn't about to help me lol. If it was gonna get one of us, it was gonna get me.

    To all of the shark experts in the comments:
    1. That is not a great white.
    2. That is not a goblin shark.
    3. It is a sand tiger shark.
    4. It's not fake.
    5. It looks particularly ugly because its missing an eye and has deformed gums, honestly it'd have a harder time surviving in the wild than in an aquarium.
    6. It does not need hundreds of miles of open ocean, again it's not a great white. Sand tigers move slowly and don't need that much room, if the tank was too small you'd see a very pronounced curve in it's spine.
    7. It's not struggling to breath, opening and closing it's mouth like because that's how sand tigers normally breathe. They can suck water into their mouth and past their gils manually allowing them to move slower and draw less attention to themselves, a particularly useful trait for an ambush hunter. They can also gulp air at the surface to achieve neutral buoyancy so they can stay completely still while looking for prey.
    8. Not all sharks struggle in captivity, sand tigers are the most common sharks in aquariums because they survive so well in captivity.
    9. Sand tiger sharks are endangered and the Dubai Mall Aquarium runs a breeding programme to help keep the species alive.

      Do you know how they act or know much about sharks ? If you think this shark is randomly gonna take a bite out of you than it doesn't seem so, don't jump to a conclusion and do some research instead. Sharks generally don't even hunt humans and as far as we know to our current knowledge "dislike" eating humans, case in point all shark attacks usually leave the body once bitten. Most likely shows they don't like eating humans at all and simply were provoked or instigated in a way that caused the attack, like self defense.

      The sand tiger is often wrongly associated with being vicious or deadly, due to its relatively large size and sharp, protruding teeth that point outward from its jaws; however, these sharks are quite docile, and are not a threat to humans. Their mouths are not large enough to cause a human fatality.

    Fun fact: the shark is doing that as a breathing method. some sharks have to keep swimming to breathe. and some can stay in one place, opening and closing their mouths and gills.

      Are you a marine biologist? What is happening to the poor guy? It looks as if he's struggling to "breathe." Is it related to the salinity of the water?

    • @plop199
      @plop199 4 года назад +82

      Mark Donovan I’m in college studying. I have been I a couple of dives. From what I can tell there is severe labored breathing. Shark usually gape or open and close there mouths as a threat posture or obviously when eating. It moved way to slow even to slow for a sand tiger shark. It could be the water salenity. Keeping shark is very difficult they require the absolute correct salt water ratio. They also require a ton of room to swim.

      @@plop199 thanks for the answer, man that is terrible news. I hope the big guy isn't in agony and that he doesn't have to suffer too much longer. Furthermore I hope that the aquarium staff are monitoring this shark otherwise that would say a lot about their organization and the treatment of these captive animals.

      Sand Tigers do fine in aquariums. They don't even roam far in the wild. They find a reef or wreck they feel safe around and stick close to it. A Sand Tiger isn't a pelagic fish like the Great White is so it doesn't have to keep constantly moving around at constant speed to survive. The reason the Sand Tiger is the number one large aquarium shark is because the really DO WELL in aquariums. They are fairly docile and easy to care for too. This one appears to have suffered a injury (or maybe is REALLY old) so it probably wouldn't even survive in the wild.
