#shark #florida #ocean
i was there unfortunately. on the beach, and in the water. one of the furthest people out there. trust me y’all it felt like a movie. the sherif was running on the beach screaming get out of the water. it was the most scariest feeling in my life and it changed my perspective and life. Please be careful when you get in the water y’all. ❤
Glad ur safe and I bet it felt surreal
@@sweetcinnamonpnchkin my cousin, her friend, and my aunt said it felt like a horror movie.
dont fish around swimmers. dont swim around fishers.
Don’t get in the ocean.
@@QuanPookie The ocean is fine as long as you don't swim there. I usually stay in the shallow and wade among the waves crashing to shore.
@@safeandeffectivelolThere are videos of sharks on these same beaches in 3 feet of water, so you have to be careful even in the shallows.
i fish at night not at day because there's people in the beach
I fell off my jet ski due to rough waves with no land in sight. Swimming back to the jetski felt like the longest 90 seconds of my life 😅
Gosh, where was that?

@@v.i.loudboy I’m in the UK. I could never swim in Sharky waters!!
@@oscarcat1231 😩😩 I didn't plan on falling off the jet ski lol
@@v.i.loudboy No but I guess it’s a risk!!
Probably tired of eating all the plastic pollution.
If a shark can detect a drop of blood from 50 feet away, it can detect what it's biting into. Sharks aren't dumb animals. Sharks are not harmless.
But Shark Week says /s
From my experience, we are swimming in their food bowl
We need to teach them who's boss. I'm tired of these sharks challenging our authority.
@@Cheka__ who tf u think u are
@@Notarealhandl3 I am a human, like yourself. We need to reasert our dominance over these savage beasts.
@@Cheka__su lil bro you go fight all the sharks 😭
@@Cheka__they aren’t savage beasts we are swimming in their house.
If you’re going to swim, take jewelry off as sharks mistake that for food since it’s shinny similar to fish. Make sure you aren’t bleeding where blood is coming out. And don’t be swimming right next to a fisher.
Dude said they make a living eating other predators like they make $25.00 a hour 😂😂😂
I felt like he was calling me a predator
It wouldn’t be unlike Amazon to start outsourcing to the ocean floor
@@eleventhecccreator as long as it’s some money involved Amazon will go beyond the Antarctic walls 😂😂

@@Ltx2k exactly
You're gonna need a bigger boat than that bud.
Nice JAWS joke
I don’t know people is it me or are these attacks becoming more frequent more closer to shore?
Well...I'm seeing more and more of this in the news.
Yes...
The little girl had to have her Left arm and right leg amputated 😔
in the history of sharks this has never happened to anyone who wasn’t paddle boarding or surfing in ocean.
STOP fishing by swimmers!!!!
Did she seriously compare the odds of getting bitten by a shark in the ocean to being struck by lightning?
It’s rare. We don’t hear about shark attacks or lightning strikes here in Florida but once in a blue moon.
I mean only 14 people were killed by sharks in 2023 which for lightning was 13. That’s a pretty fair comparison if you ask me
Do you not believe in math?
@@SupremeTaxyes she did and it was a pretty robust analogy tbf
@@SupremeTax that's people killed not attacked all together.
i go to school with one of the girls. heart breaking 💔
Which one? The severely injured one or the other one?
The paddle boarder is lucky to have seen a large hammerhead up close. You can tell by the swimming pattern of the hammerhead, that it was searching for stingrays on the bottom and had no interest in the paddle boarder.
Hammerhead aren't aggressive sharks they don't attack people. When you go to Destin you'll be swimming Ren feet from a hammerhead snd all he does is swim calmly beside you. Ride a helicopter and you see hammerhead everywhere close to oeplr snd they are calm. Their not the ones you have to be cautious but still don't get too close
Re shark attacks:
Can air and sea drones please be used routinely to help secure beaches near designated booths attended by life-guards (for viewing drone- cameras on multiple live- stream screens & to operate in-booth drone controls)?
~~~~~
Monitoring dredging, to insure that increased shark access isn't accidentally created, is also very important!!!
~~~~~~~
Ocean swimming isn't just important to the tourism industry, but also to the health & pleasure of local populations.
You would never have anyone in the water. Sharks are always swimming among people in FL. We just do not realize it when we're in the water.
With drones you have a good chance of spotting a shark if the water is clear enough, so yes a good idea if weather permits and conditions are good. You definitely need eyes over the water nowadays
@@angelineswart2232 You must not have read my response to the OP. If you pull people out of the water everytime a drone spots a shark you would almost never have swimmers in the water. Sharks are always in the water with us in FL. We locals know that and accept the risk, albeit slim. People get so hysterical sometimes.
Whaaaaaaaaaa?
Sharks?
Florida?
Summertime?
No waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy!!!!
Your sarcasm is underwhelming
@@sugarplumenigma4850 you’re criticism talent is porcupine.
@@StONed-yx5qq Your sarcasm isn't impressive at all.
@@CMV314 go swim….
As a Floridian this is not a normal thing. Been going to the beach all my life between and I have only seen one shark and it was far out. I’m 35.
Why they allow peopleto fish where we swim is just dumb.
Why they allow people to swim where we fish is even dumber.
@@WinnebagoBrewingCoPeople can fish in numerous places where swimmers cannot enter. Do not fish near swimmers unless when tragedy strikes, you're ready to have the finger pointed at you for luring predators into that swim area. It's common sense.
@@whita-db9zw never seen anybody fishing in a swimming pool. Why do swimmers have to swim in my fishing areas?
I noticed that many of these attacks involved women. If your having your period, swim in the pool stay out of the gulf, do not surf fish in the early morning or late afternoon, do not dump bait or dead fish in the water, if your hurt and even barely bleeding, stay out of the water. Get rid of any metal on your body before you swim. I am 67, live 2 hrs from gulf beaches, there have always been sharks and rays near all of those beaches, take precautions. I have seen sharks there in the past.
Sharks have no interest in human blood.
And what attracts bears to so many men that have been attacked? 🤔
I was just there in Seaside Beach and there is always a few people fishing right there too. Are there certain months that are more 🦈 shark prone?
@@maryadair5697 I think hours of daylight as well as warmer water may affect when sharks tend to come closer to shore. Early morning and late afternoon they are feeding close to shore usually. I dont know what time of day this happened. I also wonder if anyone close by is dumping garbage, meat scraps or cleaning fish nearby.
@@lesliemoore1656 that would make sense. It looked like it was in the Deer Park area. That picture of us is right there. Scary for sure. My daughter asked if sharks were in that water when we were there. 😬🦈
@truthhurts9954 sharks are interested in human blood. They are not as interested as they are in fish blood but its does attract them.
we are on vacation here right now, in 3 days we have seen 5 sharks swimming next to the bank. pretty scary stuff
IT'S THEIR HOME, maybe stay out of it.
@@MeeraRaju1111humans are dominant over all animals it may be their home it doesn’t mean we can’t be in there as well lol😂
@@Pastifyymaybe you should jump in and let them know that, my guy. I’m sure they are very reasonable
@@toorare2live I was in the water plenty of times lol as long as you don’t go near them your fine
Pastifyy have you ever heard of the Klampetts? Packed their stuff up and they were out of there!!!!
The sharks tolerate human intrusion into their territory remarkably well.
Perhaps it was the same shark in all three attacks
Lifeguard duty is to scan the water for sharks. With binoculars. They socialize and look at their phone instead of.
Sharks live in the ocean. If you do not want to be bitten by a shark then do not go in the ocean. 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
Shark attacks r rare. Ppl take chances and u take chances everyday.
How do you figure?
If they die in the ocean and get killed by a shark, they most likely would die “doing what they loved.”
If 100 people got attacked in the last two years, how can they still say it's rear.
It's relative. Considering over 70 million people swim in American oceans every year, only 50 people attacked per year is very rare. Chicken pox is a rare infection and 200k people get it per year, but when you compare it to the population it's highly unlikely.
@@_HolyHell_ Tell that to the 50 that were attacked.
@@user-jh7nc3pv8h what? I’m not saying it’s not awful, I was just answering their question on why it’s still considered rare.
@@_HolyHell_ I know but I stay out of the water anyway...just to be on the safe side. I'm not going to take a chance and put my life at risk just to go swimming as rare as it may be.
If you applied that same logic to traffic accidents, would you ever drive again?
I get the fear, but odds wise if you are just wading in knee or even waist deep water around other people your chances of getting attacked are basically the same as walking under a slightly dark clouded sky and getting hit by lightning. It can happen, but it probably won't as is the case with many things in life.
Been swimming in the ocean down here in Florida my whole life and never once encountered one but I’ve seen them in the water while fishing. Keep it in mind always and remain vigilant!
I lived on Miami beach for two months and would see them frequently especially after sunset swimming parallel to the shore. They are very stealthy and just because you can't see them doesn't mean they aren't there.
Can y’all imagine how our world would be different if megalodons,mososaurs and plesiosaurs survived into the present day? People wouldn’t really be safe on the oceans
It always unusual to these so called specialists.
That is crazy now it happened again 4 times!
JAWS
Daaaa dun!!!!!!
A SJW
@@goldeneagle99 daaaa dun...
Make shark fishing FREE......people are starving in Sudan & Yemen....feed the hungry 😊😊
Dang I’m so scared bro Becuz I’m literally going to Destin Florida for my birthday on Monday July 1st
People seem to misunderstand "don't demonize sharks" as "don't be wary of sharks". While yes, sharks shouldn't be hunted out of fear, they should be avoided out of respect.
You roll the dice and you takes ya chances.
Or you sit in front of a computer all day and watch the world pass you by.
Some people are so stoooopid...
That's pretty much life. All you can do is stay aware of your surroundings
You roll the dice getting in a car. You roll the dice going to work. Don’t live your life in fear, go swimming if you want to.
That girl that fought the shark is a G!
I wonder why Inside Edition deleted the video about this news on their channel. 🤔
Not many channels are covering this. I wonder why.
Never swim near fishermen either
I saw another video on Shark's where you're supposed to just kindly push the 300-600 pound predator away. Nobody told the victims this, I guess.
Why does my family go on vacation here
People are downright fools… for believing they are safe on a paddle board, kayak or surfboard. If that’s ALL you have to climb on, I understand. But to be paddling around a shark with your child or pet with you!!?? Is IDIOTIC!
It's hot. What are you doing in the water? Shark. What are you doing in the water people.
This is a tragedy. How would you feel if your loved ones lost a limb or almost died on vacation? You can’t hate the sharks though. It is their territory. I hope you all stay safe this summer. My thoughts are with the victims and I hope they make full recoveries. Poor lady lost part of her arm.
At last, a reasonable analysis of the situation. Tragic for the human victims, but think of how many millions of sharks are being slaughtered every year just for their fins! They are then thrown back into the ocean to drown.
How we feel would have no impact on how everybody watching about us on the news would feel.
What we say has no impact on what people would say about us or the situation reversed.
Theory of mind… No Not everyone thinks like everyone else and the way you think won’t influence the way anybody else thinks
She worried about the 2 shark attacks. I'm here wondering how far the rest of the shark family Is from the beach.
Bruh, i just came here after watching a french netflix show about sharks called Under Paris.
Start allowing lots of shark fishing.
When you hear that John Williams theme song from Jaws creeping in your eardrums it’s time to get out of the water!
People ignore it all to often…
@@toorare2live yep and they usually come back to shore with one arm lol!!
Shark Attacks are Always "Rare" For People NOT Attacked by a Shark
People need to stop going out so far into the ocean, stay close to the beach, if you wanna swim then buy a pool… ❤❤❤❤
The movie The Happening watch it , the man inside the Den with the Lions . Its from 2008
If it was a Bull shark when they decide they want to eat humans multiple attacks are not rare at all. Many cases when they attack one person and if that person gets away they will target a second person
Tiger sharks too
Don’t go in the water 👀
Oh i’m in rosemary beach right now and i was in the water and a shark came
Omg luckily your safe
Swim with sharks might as well ring them dinner bell
I was at PCB a couple of weeks ago, and a man caught a couple of sharks fishing from the shore at night. I didn't think sharks was a big problem at PCB but I guess it is.
they are everywhere. they are only not a huge though problem because most ignore people for the most part. ofcourse none of that matters if you are one if the few misfortune people who get attacked 😲
Stay out of the water! How many times do people need to be told this.
That's in the entire world
Well the shark experts will be sure to tell you that sharks have no interest in us!
That’s like saying people need to stop driving cars because of crashes
People need to live their lives they can’t live in fear their entire life. It’s a chance you should be willing to take
Going to need a bigger boat lol
It's not shark. It's Russian unmanned submarine🤣
I am innport of saint Joe and a Fishman next to caught a baby shark 2 days ago.
i was just in Destin, Florida recently! i’m so glad i just escaped this!
you didn't escape anything 🥱
@@rabbitscryptos7757 they said there were attacks in florida.
I searched this on Google
I pray that the shark attack victims recover soon. To everybody that go swimming in the ocean you are brave. I went snorkeling once in Mexico to see sea turtles and mantha rays but knowing what predators are in the ocean freaks me out
Sharks hangout in-between sandbars
I live in Florida and im not surprised i feel like sharks and fish get overwhelmed by all the people that visit the beach almost every day like Florida is way too overpopulated and honestly not what people imagine when it comes to to the dream spot
You are reaching big time. it's commercial fisherman who disrupt marine life, especially the Chinese.The ocean is massive and a few crowded beaches has very little impact on marine wildlife in general.
Dang I’m in the car rn going to PCB beach lol😂😂
go to Florida beaches where shark bites are free
The ocean is their home. Stay away.
No
Where is our home? You won't be back.
Tired of hearing that same ole response.
Gee, none of us had any idea!! 🙄
When you swim in the ocean you are swimming at your own risk. You are swimming in their home.
Extra cautious and super safe sharks do not know the sharks are hungry
And they say Sharks are misunderstood creatures and rarely ever attacks. Lol no. If a shark swims near you, it will bite you no matter what regardless of anything. It's simply what these wild creatures do
Clearly they’re still misunderstood, judging by your comment💀. Just don’t panic or act like prey when u see a shark, cuz that triggers their predator instincts. They use there mouths to feel objects/creatures that they’re curious about. So once you start splashing, panicking, they’re gonna investigate you. You can also redirect a shark if they swim towards u. And these attacks could’ve been avoided if people were aware that sharks are nearby and know how to deal with one when they encounter it
@@jc_hills1540When was the last time you turned a shark away?
@@jc_hills1540you people make me sick lol
Sharks are not aggressive they said!
Sharks should not be allowed at the beach. Something needs to be done about this.
wym sharks shouldn’t be allowed at the beach?
Nope not getting g in water
Where's this at? Thinking of taking my wife there for vacation.
I’m going to this beach today I’m snarked :(
You couldnt pay me enoufg to go in the ocean.
All the “sharks are harmless” people are quiet. Weird
It seems to me last summer and now just the beginning of this summer that shark attacks r happening more & more and these sharks r coming into the shallows very scary 😨. I absolutely love the beach and respect the ocean but i don't go in the ocean 💙🩵💙🩵🦈🦈

I vacation a lot in south carolina, lots of sharks there but not many attacks, sharks are very smart, they will hang out at the fishing piers looking for handouts one day I cleaned a fish and threw the rest over, a 7 foot tiger shark was out of the water before it hit the water, I always have a knife strapped to my leg when I go swimming, they will come and give you a test bump or a small bite before attacking, if that happens go for those cold eyes they will go away, if not at least it is blind gives you a chance to get away
It’s Florida….
They're always there
Shallow water deep water, it does not matter, it's the ocean, you know? Where the sharks live at
Why cant we drop nets with alarms forty feet off shore? Hire a few marine college graduates each summer to watch the nets so sharks and irher large fish do mot stay caught in them when they do. Can help with research and tagging.
And keep swimmers safe.
40 feet from low tide should be enough beach space for swimmers.
They drag nets for the pastics which is awesome. They got a ship to drop and pull the nets. So why not for the beaches? Drop them out at 6 am and pull them at dusk. The hours if the lifeguards.
You are in their home so that is the chance you take.
Why are People fishing where people are Swimming ... No Common Sense, Why don't you just put some Chum in the water where People are swimming.
Baby shark....mommy shark....daddy shark...
I'm going to Florida next week 😮😢my mom did not now at the time
just be alert and yall will be alright !
Its cool in Destin , i swim like 150 yards away but be safe brah
I have seen vacationers make mistakes by not thinking..look around before going in the ocean..Do you see anyone else in the water and if so are there many or just a few..also take off any jewelry you have including ear rings and bracelets etc..Even wearing fancy swim suites with glitter can bring danger..Don't make yourself a target..Certain times for example early mornings there are areas where jelly fish will come through getting their feed and each species has a predator..Ask the locals if your not sure..They usually know..The Ocean is home to some strange wonderful and massive creatures..Its their home not ours..
It's the shark bite capital of the world
Meatball ron needs to ban sharks, thats how he fixes everything else
All the years I lived in South Florida and swam in the ocean no sharks , I mean Im very lucky. Palm Beach. My Mom always was looking out for me , she ends up dying of cancer . I went right back to the same area and went into the water . Get a spear gun.
0:19 Dude that's a hammerhead shark! They can't do anything to you, their jaws are too small!
Plus the mouth is on the bottom. They're pretty much mean looking bottom feeders
They can still bite you. They do have a mouth
Hammerhead sharks are also one of the more aggressive species, and they can absolutely rip a limb off you.
That said, they don’t normally attack humans, and have never killed anyone.
Hammerheads have 355°-357° vision, and can get very big, just because the head looks inferior to a standard shark, they can still be deadly.
I WAS THERE ON MY VACATION WHEN IT HAPPENED TOO
Do you recommend going there?
@@g_mason8867 yeah it's really fun just don't go to far out into the ocean. there's a lot of hotels and they all have beautiful rooms. i went to Destin Florida. the was is rly clear so i think you'd see the shark coming
Stay safe and get out of the water
the ocean is like any other wilderness, and when entering the wild you get to personally weigh risk vs. reward.
remove all the risk and the reward goes too.
Crazy
And thats why you won't catch me in the ocean. Not fishing, swimming or anything
Large chunks taken out of kayaks, too, so even above the water there's always a risk 😬
😂
Vote YES to amendment 3 in November
With warmer oceans we are going to get more sharks at beaches
