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.

Sand Tiger shark. Harmless, slow moving, and breathing normally. It’s experienced recent injuries, is infected and diseased thus it’s spooky appearance with the jaw dislocated. No arched back and they do extremely well in aquariums. Slow to breed and endangered.
I thought it was animatronic the first 10 seconds of the video. Idc. I would never get into the water with anything that looks like that. I have goosebumps man that thing looks terrifying
For anyone who doesn't know, you can tell the shark's sex by whether or not said shark has claspers (basically shark penises). The shark in the video is a female. Just some fun information. :)
This poor shark is blind, is not harmless but is like living in a retirement house with people feeding you, living nice and calm, and he don't seem aggressive, just curious because he felt the vibrations of bubbles
In all honestly, I really applaud that guy. He looks super uncomfortable and unsettled when the shark got that close, but he definitely did an amazing job staying calm and keeping his composure. Those things are so much bigger in person, I don't know if I could do something like this. Hella respect.

For a moment I almost couldn’t believe that was even real. It looked more like it could’ve been an animatronics prop at MGM Studios than an actual shark with the way that it looked and how it was behaving. What a very strange shark.
I googled it and apparently they arent aggressive and dont attack humans and can not even open their mouths wide enough to cause a human fatality. Interesting.apparently the most they have done is harass spearfisherman.
It looks fake at the mouth - around the teeth it looks like fabric, but others are saying otherwise so maybe it is? The skin does looks real but 🤷♂️ No way I’m doing it though lol.
It definitely gives off an uncanny valley sort of effect because sharks aren’t supposed to be still in the water like that; everyone knows that they have to keep moving and are energetic swimmers - but not these “creepy” Sand Tigers. 😅

I would have already had a heart attack if I was one of those divers. That is scary no matter what kind of shark it is, you never know when it might decide to take a bit out of you.
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.

@@lukemcdonald3200 The shark is actually deformed and missing an eye and was rescued from the wild and brought into captivity. Sand tigers don’t need much room as they are ambush predators and can filter water through their gills with their mouth rather than having to swim. The shark has a better chance in captivity given its disabilities so let’s be quiet next time.
I think its upper jaw is extended out from its lip for an unknown reason. Sharks look like him generally when they do that --- it's only when they're about to take a bite of something. You see his exact same species pass him in the upper right corner at 2:17 . He is also missing his right eyeball, poor thingy.
@@bryprouty7004 he might have gum disease, but it would be pretty bad at that, I was thinking they cut out the upper lip to make it look scarier for people.
@@bryprouty7004 NO THEY ARE NOT !. The upper and lower jaw are broken out. A Sand Tiger Sharks head is way flatter. This is caused by catching or moving the female. And im diving with Sand Tiger Sharks for 4 years now at the coast of italy.
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.
This is the craziest looking shark I’ve ever seen. He looks so pissed off all the time. I’m so glad that you made it out of here. Have you gone back in this tank since? Just curious! Lol
Shark wasn’t a real shark Einstein .. Besides the fact that NO great white has ever successfully been kept in captivity, how can you NOT tell that it looks fake as fuck.. So many comments on how “looks sad, doesn’t look healthy and so on...” Even if someone WAS able to pull off successfully keeping a great white in captivity... you really think a company would allow people to go scuba diving with one
utopianfurbiscuit yo you are showing your complete lack of any knowledge of sharks. fake or not that is 100% NOT a great white!! You sir need to go back and watch some more discover channel or pick up a book for real! A 5yr old can tell you that’s not a great white shark. And here you are spying your complete laughable ignorance on my comment. Gooooo away
At first glance I thought it was a one-eyed goblin shark- but they're built differently. This shark has receding gums, and one eye. Quite an aquarium for what's essentially a nursing home. Differently- abled or not, I'd want a cage handy. Even a blind hog can find an acorn. Lol
I love his weird little lack of lips and imperfections, definitely one of the most unique sand tigers I’ve ever seen. He might look ugly to others but to me he’s beautiful
Sharks don't routinely open and close it's mouth like that and any large shark would be costly on any standard aquarium let alone a third world country one. This most certainly is fake and the guy filming was had that's all there is to it. It wasn't even corralling it's prey or actively hunting.bit was on a motor and a track the teeth it had wasn't even correct for a bull shark or any other large breed shark.
That shark has been altered. I study sharks for a living and the way it’s breathing and slow movements indicate stress and other issues and the jaw jutting out like that is not natural .
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?
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.
It reminds me of a cartoon - 2 sharks looking at nude swimmers above them with their bits hanging down and one shark says to the other "its enough to put you off your breakfast."
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.
@@user-fz3ip3ke8p you are the dumbass, Sharks don't have lungs, but they do have to breathe oxygen to survive. Instead of breathing air, though, sharks get oxygen from the water that surrounds them
This is a sand tiger shark, it’s just curious and i am almost certain it would have allowed them to play with it. They are actually rather friendly, however with a set of teeth like that you can see why people would assume otherwise.
I have never been so scared watching a RUclips video. My heart was in my stomach watching it. Thankful for the video. This is the closest I'll ever get to any sharks. Mad respect for all of you.
I'm scared too. At first I thought there was a glass wall between the divers and the shark. If I was in this aquarium, I would die of fear. 😨Respect to the divers!
Even a docile shark I couldn’t do it I would be scared shitless. I can’t even have a docile boa constrictor around my neck that a zookeeper says it’s OK. Because that’s how much that freaks me out. So I’ll be right in front of a shark even though they say it’s safe is just like that but that much worse
Oh, guys, that's just Brucie. He's harmless. He just likes to show his gums with his nasty-looking sharp teeth and his dark, cold stare while swimming slowly in the tank. But, he's a swell guy.
Unbelievable! I thought this video was fake at first. Very sad to learn that they are endangered though. Props to the divers for barely flinching when it was so close!
1:25 you could see the the man on the left started panicking. But the man on the right can bee seen like telling him to stay put & calm. I would've died of fear already. Props to him 👏
This is the craziest and most real RUclips video I've ever seen! Based on the date of your post, I did this exact dive about 2 weeks before you. All the sharks just swam away from us. Considering the situation, I would say you kept your cool. I would have been freaking out inside. I'm glad you lived and have this awesome footage and story to share.
I googled it and apparently they arent aggressive and dont attack humans and can not even open their mouths wide enough to cause a human fatality. Interesting.
@@jasminemason1174 just put your hand in his mouth until it closes it and you ll see if it cant hurt you.....these animals are known to be peaceful, and calm with us only because they dont have a very big diet like the others species which are dangerous. They only target fish and shellfish.... But by looking at their mouth you can easily tell that it is still large enough to hurt, hence why some accidents with humans like you who had too mch confidence have been reported..
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.
The three nosey fishes 1:38 on top of the diver are like "Finally we get to see Lenny in Action" but then Lenny the Shark turns away from the divers. "Ah boo, never mind" 1:45
Samantha Tucker I agree with you totally! Very sad but sharks do slow down when “sleeping” and they do take deeper breaths/hold their jaws open... but this is quite irregular and downright sad!
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.
I’m assuming this is a sand tiger but never seen one look like this! Very strange! It looks sick! Never seen one with protruding upper jaw like this! It’s usually only exposed when feeding. Maybe it has nerve damage but this doesn’t seem like a healthy animal!

@@lukemcdonald3200 The shark is actually deformed and missing an eye and was rescued from the wild and brought into captivity. Sand tigers don’t need much room as they are ambush predators and can filter water through their gills with their mouth rather than having to swim. The shark has a better chance in captivity given its disabilities so let’s be quiet next time.
@@lukemcdonald3200 You’re the tool that’s for sure, a broken and useless one at that.
That is one of the scariest looking sharks I have ever seen.
lol same here
I think its upper jaw is extended out from its lip for an unknown reason. Sharks look like him generally when they do that --- it's only when they're about to take a bite of something. You see his exact same species pass him in the upper right corner at 2:17 .
He is also missing his right eyeball, poor thingy.
@@bryprouty7004 he might have gum disease, but it would be pretty bad at that, I was thinking they cut out the upper lip to make it look scarier for people.
@@bryprouty7004 NO THEY ARE NOT !. The upper and lower jaw are broken out. A Sand Tiger Sharks head is way flatter. This is caused by catching or moving the female. And im diving with Sand Tiger Sharks for 4 years now at the coast of italy.
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.
I can feel myself getting dumber with every comment I read
Every time someone says it’s a goblin shark my brain gets a little bit smoother
every time someone says "why is it breathing like that" or "it's fake" i lose brain cells
Hey 😤
My brain is deteriorating
I don't think that's possible
This is the craziest looking shark I’ve ever seen. He looks so pissed off all the time. I’m so glad that you made it out of here. Have you gone back in this tank since? Just curious! Lol
Litterally the comments: ThAT iS nOt A HeAlThY ShArK
Well it is indeed not a healthy shark. But I bet this is a shark that can’t survive in the wild so 🤷♀️
ももこ why do people assume its unhealthy cuz it looks like it ate a lemon
@@hentodev7205 lol it was born with one eye and messed up gums

Shark wasn’t a real shark Einstein ..
Besides the fact that NO great white has ever successfully been kept in captivity, how can you NOT tell that it looks fake as fuck..
So many comments on how “looks sad, doesn’t look healthy and so on...”
Even if someone WAS able to pull off successfully keeping a great white in captivity... you really think a company would allow people to go scuba diving with one
utopianfurbiscuit yo you are showing your complete lack of any knowledge of sharks. fake or not that is 100% NOT a great white!!

@@brettlane2606 песчаная акула (серая)
At first glance I thought it was a one-eyed goblin shark- but they're built differently. This shark has receding gums, and one eye. Quite an aquarium for what's essentially a nursing home. Differently- abled or not, I'd want a cage handy. Even a blind hog can find an acorn. Lol
I have the feeling they used this one in the movie “Jaws”. He looks more like a prop shark then a real shark.
Well obviously they made a prop shark in Jaws
T0pMan15 you must be the brains!
They propped up a prop shark then a real shark proposed and the proposal was declined by the shark that then was proposed to.

I love his weird little lack of lips and imperfections, definitely one of the most unique sand tigers I’ve ever seen.
He might look ugly to others but to me he’s beautiful
Aaaahhhhh a man who understands sharks, you are a good man
He’s got character, he’s gorgeous.
🦈🐠
It's a female
Hd looks cool
Weirdest “shark” I’ve ever seen. Almost looks fake.
Is that real or fake i think thats real
Sharks don't routinely open and close it's mouth like that and any large shark would be costly on any standard aquarium let alone a third world country one. This most certainly is fake and the guy filming was had that's all there is to it. It wasn't even corralling it's prey or actively hunting.bit was on a motor and a track the teeth it had wasn't even correct for a bull shark or any other large breed shark.
It’s real
@@Openreality yep its real, its a sand tiger shark, with a broken upper jaw, maybe thats why it breathes like that, maybe its hard for him to breathe
It's look weird because of his gums
POV the shark is staring at you for 10 hours and is breathing so hard
That shark has been altered. I study sharks for a living and the way it’s breathing and slow movements indicate stress and other issues and the jaw jutting out like that is not natural .
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?
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.
Maybe they rescued it because of its broken jaw
T Myers are u sure that is not just a goblin shark?
Imagine being a fish and seeing all those aliens watching them
ruclips.net/video/PFMmLr7pYnQ/видео.html ❤️
It reminds me of a cartoon - 2 sharks looking at nude swimmers above them with their bits hanging down and one shark says to the other "its enough to put you off your breakfast."
@Janice Taylor lol
@@janicetaylor8794 witch cartoon?
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.
How can it breathe when its underwater dumbass
@@user-fz3ip3ke8p I Can’t Tell If You Are Serious
@@user-fz3ip3ke8p you are the dumbass, Sharks don't have lungs, but they do have to breathe oxygen to survive. Instead of breathing air, though, sharks get oxygen from the water that surrounds them
Every living creature can breathe. It just different but same process.
If sharks stop swimming they die, swish swish
The cameraman never dies 😂
Sad it had to born that way but it looks cooler than the rest
Looks doesn’t matter! 🙄😅
U mean scary than rest of the sharks
Why? What's wrong with it?
It’s freaky looking
That's a goblin shark. They naturally look like that
This is a sand tiger shark, it’s just curious and i am almost certain it would have allowed them to play with it. They are actually rather friendly, however with a set of teeth like that you can see why people would assume otherwise.
Not true
gijs Vdw they are generally harmless
Grampa shark, looks like he’s dying.

I have never been so scared watching a RUclips video. My heart was in my stomach watching it. Thankful for the video. This is the closest I'll ever get to any sharks. Mad respect for all of you.
That's a sand tiger shark it's not deadly it's actually harmless
I dove this exact aquarium twice this week. They are pretty docile and chill in real life
I'm scared too. At first I thought there was a glass wall between the divers and the shark. If I was in this aquarium, I would die of fear. 😨Respect to the divers!
My exact feeling!!
Even a docile shark I couldn’t do it I would be scared shitless. I can’t even have a docile boa constrictor around my neck that a zookeeper says it’s OK. Because that’s how much that freaks me out. So I’ll be right in front of a shark even though they say it’s safe is just like that but that much worse
Oh, guys, that's just Brucie. He's harmless. He just likes to show his gums with his nasty-looking sharp teeth and his dark, cold stare while swimming slowly in the tank. But, he's a swell guy.
Unbelievable! I thought this video was fake at first. Very sad to learn that they are endangered though. Props to the divers for barely flinching when it was so close!
Never felt bad for a Shark as I do now.
If you feel bad for sharks than just remember Dolphins fuck with Sharks on a daily basis

Lol! Missed opportunity to permanently befriend an apex predator!
1:25 you could see the the man on the left started panicking. But the man on the right can bee seen like telling him to stay put & calm. I would've died of fear already. Props to him 👏
"Bro just stay calm... That's a good meat shield. Right between me and that big ass shark..."
@@whichDude Literally this shark is not dangerous at all
"no, no, you're fine, just lay there! it's all good, I swear"
This is the craziest and most real RUclips video I've ever seen! Based on the date of your post, I did this exact dive about 2 weeks before you. All the sharks just swam away from us. Considering the situation, I would say you kept your cool. I would have been freaking out inside. I'm glad you lived and have this awesome footage and story to share.
I googled it and apparently they arent aggressive and dont attack humans and can not even open their mouths wide enough to cause a human fatality. Interesting.
@@jasminemason1174 just put your hand in his mouth until it closes it and you ll see if it cant hurt you.....these animals are known to be peaceful, and calm with us only because they dont have a very big diet like the others species which are dangerous.
They only target fish and shellfish....
But by looking at their mouth you can easily tell that it is still large enough to hurt, hence why some accidents with humans like you who had too mch confidence have been reported..
Shark:
“Hey, how you doin' lil' mama? Let me whisper in ya ear.”
The fact that at the beginning it looked like a great white mixed with a goblin shark
It's a sand shark.
The divers: * meticulously still so as not to attract his attention *
The camera man: hey sup big boi
Sharks die quickly in tanks, this shark is in the process of dying. There's no danger here except for the shark.
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.
That wasn’t worded properly

It's heart breaking to watch :(
Samantha Tucker I agree with you totally! Very sad but sharks do slow down when “sleeping” and they do take deeper breaths/hold their jaws open... but this is quite irregular and downright sad!
I was thinking 🤔 what in grandpa 🦈 do do do do. Probably because it’s been caged- free in the sea 🌊 is where he longs to be.
to scare ppl bruh

No guarantee that it would bite. Sharks are really gentle giants. You really only need to watch out for the Bull Shark.
