Shark: You know I can just swim under you, right?
Lmaooo
🤣🤣🤣right
Lol
Very funny
😂🤣😭😂😂👍👍
That shark would have left me alone cuz I would have shitted everywhere

Mess Over oh lord

I know this gal personally and had the privilege of working with her for several years. She's always upbeat, happy, kind, and helpful. I'm proud of her in so many ways.Happy she had such a great team looking out for her.
I am speechless. She is a bionic lady both mentally and physically. I have a thousand questions... but like I said Im speechless.
I’m a 30 yr old man and a naturally very strong swimmer, and I take my hat off to this lady completely. My fear of sharks (probably irrational) is such that I can barely swim a few metres outside the buoys even in the Mediterranean Sea without imagining a huge set of jaws flying at me from out of nowhere! 😂 Absolutely paralysing, never in a million years would I have the bottle to do this.
if it mattered to you perhaps seeing a psychologist would help you get over the fear (not saying you're mentally ill)
@@gregdahlen4375 Fair point, if I ever was to consider doing any serious open water swimming I’m sure I’d have to do that! 👍
Mediterranean is safe....
@@osint6372 I know that, hence me pointing out that my fear is irrational 👍
Definitely not an irrational fear.... Just look at the guy who got eaten in Egypt by a tiger shark.... And he was just going for a swim with his girlfriend
15 - 20 hours in open water.
*On purpose.*
No thanks.
Veggies for Thought I hear is almost like people love problems
asking for it
Don't get me wrong, this video was uncomfortable enough as it was from the start but when that Jaws theme came on. NOT necessary haha.

Crystalline Entity I can’t even go in the beach water , I’m afraid of my life
Imagine doing the swim and just looking down into the huge darkness of the ocean. Most terrifying sight.
I have Thalassophobia so I can imagine this very clearly
Most terrifying sight for me would be a Great White shuttling up towards me out of that darkness
@@ereh3378 what is that kind of phobia?
@@shasha6827 Thalassophobia (Greek: θάλασσα, thalassa, "sea" and φόβος, phobos, "fear") is an intense and persistent fear of the sea or of sea travel. Thalassophobia can include fear of being in large bodies of water, fear of the vast emptiness of the sea, of sea waves, sea creatures, and fear of distance from land.
@@mickburton6838 I also fear darkness☹️ that's even scarier🤣
So happy to know the swimmer's well-being was prioritized to the task. She's a very brave woman and a very skilled professional. Thank you so muuch for the visuals, Aaron! :)))
Hi
Nice 👍

I'm always amazed at people that go in the ocean, even more surfers and swimmers like this lady, and act surprised that there's a shark. Like, seriously??? What are you surprised about?!
I used to be scared that there was a shark in my swimming pool
Same or in my lake. There is catfish and bass and other creature fish. There was a slimy big scary black fish with teeth and I saw it graze past my foot. I'm so scared now, especially cause I don't know what that was.
Rebecca me to 😂
Yh same lol
Same, I would always look behind me
Nigga really
"Ma'am are you okay?, you're very far from land. Do you need assistance?" Helper tiger shark tryna be helpful
I had a good chuckle at that one. Imagine a shark with the personality of a dolphin.
@@jamesk954 It's called Shark Tale, the greatest movie in the world. How did it miss the Oscars just how
She cant understand me so ill just scare her to shore and if that doesnt work then ill drag her
isint that Dolphins job?
When great white sharks start attacking cages, what if they are just trying to free us?
I'm pretty sure she swam passed plenty of huge sharks that seen her but no one seen them. Strong woman for sure!
Whoa, this is INSANE! I have nothing but respect for people that take on waves that massive. I'm terrified of the ocean so mad respect for these folks!
You have a higher chance of drowning,then being attacked by a shark.
*can we acknowledge how beautiful the ocean looked? The dark blue is lovely*
Yazzz it Tizz.👍
You can see the darker blues a ways off the coast in Florida, but in Hawaii it's stunningly close.
Dark blue oceans rarely has a least amount of sharks..
It is scary as shit, i would never be swimming there. Full of sharks and scary animals
Makes that sharks presence even more scary to be honest... their own indigo cobalt shading camouflages them to the water even more. NOPE.
Shark to Ranie: “Are you lost baby girl?”
HAHAHAHAHA
Shark was so polite, who knew?
Ranie: You are just Shark I am Whale, Baby 😎
Are you Filipino?

I drove for 17 hours and was utterly exhausted. How could someone swim that long? Wow!
@@streetfightervsxenoverse1832 Congratulations. You're probably a professional that has been doing it for many years. Now think back to when you first started. I'm sure you were tired then as well.
@@streetfightervsxenoverse1832 Had a CDL for 20 years... I don't care who you are, 17hrs of driving is exhausting.
@@streetfightervsxenoverse1832 Do you have any idea how cringe your comments are? Even if you didn't get tired after 17 hours of driving, nobody gives a damn. You're acting like that's some amazing feat; like you're the first person into space or something.
@@BlGGESTBROTHER please shut up and find something better to do.
@@BlGGESTBROTHER Never said it was an amazing feat , I only answered a question from someone who replied to my comments, Why do you care so much? You bored?
Great video. It was amazing how much they were able to spot the shark in the drone footage. I suppose people have pointed out that she is now more famous because of this video, than if she had successfully made the swim without a shark. Well done, and after this, I would totally take the safe option!
We shouldn't rule out the deployment of a radio-controlled mechanical shark to generate RUclips viewership numbers.
Aside from the massive physical feat, I think the hardest thing to get my head around is the mental strength this woman displays to swim in open water just looking down into the abyss...
She is not alone, everything can stop in an instant. But yeah if she was alone then psychologically it’s very scary because there is no quick exit
The hardest thing is looking like a real life seal, no neck full fat envelope.

@@wingnutmcspazatron3957 مين
It actually matches the situation.. its not random psycho music😂 its the music from jaws
Just to think about me gives me chills. Sharks live in water and I live on ground and I believe that’s a perfect agreement.
I'm a Lifeguard. What's even more disturbing is that the swimmer Pearce, never even bothered to get out of the water. When the shark was first spotted.
And that kayaker would have had zero chance in saving her. [ that was a big shark ] I'm just glad that I don't have people like this protecting me, indeed.
Do not ever - ever go head to head with a big shark. [EVER] again!
Yeah, this woman has no fear, I'd be terrified of swimming open water.
No fear? Or ignorance? She is swimming where she is the bottom of the food chain and has a host of ppl to keep her safe. She was well protected, for the most part. But running into a burning house to see if u can, doesnt make u brave, running into a burning house to save a living creature does.
people are caught up in fear that they wont recognize someone that got past the fear and they call it being an idiot or ignorant. well, actually it is brave and worthy of recognition. its not a stupid thing just because you wouldn't do it. Some people like challenges and they deserve being recognized because most of people are so afraid they wouldn't try stuff
@@carnagecarnage657 Its still not smart anyway, you have to consider it a wilderness experiment there are creatures lurking down there that can kill you.
Girls are really fearless sometimes name one guy who ACTUALLY COMPLETED it
Mr Robinson you sound like the ultimate hater dude. Lol you are on every comment thread saying this is stupid. The fact of the matter is she attempted to swim 28 miles in the ocean while you are attempting to reply to every comment on RUclips. I’d say you are more of a waste in life
17 hours in the open ocean and only came across one shark? 🤔 I would have expected more Lol
There may very well have been more out of sight.
There’s a 1% chance of running into a shark in the ocean
Uglyfoo X don’t be so pro shark. Ask all the sailors who had their ship sunk. Brainwashed nut
Tobius Onthebrink i have not heard of any sailor ships which hae been sunk by a shark..wtf xD
Tobius Onthebrink
Lmao jaws wasnt based on real events dude 😂
I could never deal with the anxiety of having that much water between my feet and the ground adding no visibility and predators
Respect to this woman and the crew - you all Rock!!
17 HOURS SWIMMING!!! I get tired after just 15 minutes in the pool. Mad respect ✊🏼
Ha ha
I learned it's all about breathing. Newbies hold the breath too long which feeds co2 to the muscles which makes them feel tired af rather quickly.
@@nikolairose2739 but still 17 hours holy shit
@@iam03j32 I mean yeah it sounds crazy. But what is her pace like? Cuz I can walk 17 hours, it'd be hard, it'll definitely make my feet hurt but it's doable. Similarly a slow pace while swimming is the same. I don't think she takes breaks and floats on her back or nothing either so props to her.
I don't have a pool .
It's incredible to me that when I hear stories of distance swimming feats it's not usually a genetic super freak, but usually an unassuming woman, 40's or older, even into their 70's, and they just smash it like a boss. Incredible feat of endurance. Much respect.
Yeah. It normally comes from single women after being runners, having two cats, and so..
@@vivalapatria3740 lml
We had a girl down here in Straya that did long distance ocean swimming, but she swam in a cage just in case of sharks
the best open water swimmers will have extra body fat. too thin and you will get cold quickly
Women on average have better endurance than men. Long distance swimming is one physical activity women will beat men at.
Wow. First of all huge congrats. This is an amazing feet. It just feels good for once to see a team who know exactly what they are doing with spotters, protocols etc. Also putting her life first and making sure she could jump into the kayak if things got worse. It is just too often we see professionals not really as well prepared as they should be. And then people blaming sharks... Congrats to the team, awesome job!
Was a lifeguard from age 16-26 off and on until I got into IT. I remember going to the Coast Guard and Navy recruiter with hopes of becoming a rescue swimmer (of course "The Guardian) shaped those prospects. No matter how strong of a swimmer you are, the Ocean IS a different beast! The fear of the unknown 😫😫
Shark attacks are so prevalent...I can't even enter the beach without thinking of them. When I go jet skiing and everyone jump into the water mid tour...NOPE. Not me! Big ups to this brave woman. I wish her nothing nothing but longevity. Hope she stays safe
Thank you service as a lifeguard and for your comment. Shark attacks ARE prevalent. People have to remember that the data on shark attacks are REPORTED attacks and the majority of that data is collected from the U.S. and Australia. This video proves that sharks actively hunt and stalk humans. There is a CLEAR pattern of them singling people out who are alone and/or in small groups. The same predatory way they do to their usual sea prey.
15-20 hours swimming across the deep ocean... are people asking to die or?
Dude your comment is the reason I came down the comment section.... could not agree more!!! I have nightmares of this exact thing!!!
Or
Preach bro, people are crazy🤣
So right. I don't run through a bunch of bears trying to catch salmon. This is hubris and real ignorance.
This isn't a show of ignorance or hubris. She didn't go alone, she went with a spotter in case she couldn't make it, and then backed out when she felt she was in danger. Seems pretty responsible to me
I'm so scared at what's down under...I could NEVER do this!
Duh moron. It's entirely stupid. You won't do this because it's a moronic endeavor. That idiot was meant to be with people that encouraged her absolute stupidity in a moronic effort to swim her fat ass across an ocean full of deadly shit.
Jacob Sayre the reason she is fat because she has stored calories for this endeavour as she requires a lot of caliries to swim across a channel in the middle of an ocean
Jacob Sayre words of a man who will never do anything worthwhile in his life. You’re pathetic

Such a brave and strong swimmer. Kudos to her! Big time!
I would feel uncomfortable in a kayak in open water like that let alone free swimming. Walking into the water from the beach and just keep swimming out deeper and deeper makes me feel sick! One brave lady mentally
shark doing what it's been doing for millions of years..inspecting the situation..and determining a course of action.
And those potential guts are food ! But yes I get your point..Very Brave :)
So True..!
Gutsy would be completing the swim unaided.
This is more like incredibly stupid. I don't quite understand why people wilfully & intentionally put themselves in harm's way, all for a moment of personal glory or self gratification (quite egotistical & selfish IMO). Not to mention the boat load of sunscreen lotion she slathered over herself and polluted the waters with.
Waste of time, effort, $$ and resources
There were probably 10 other sharks nearby they never saw during the time she was in the water.
Jeff Davis True..!
This is a very tough swim. Eddie Akau lost his life (presumably) trying to swim for help on a surfboard on the first journey of the Hokule'a. George Helm was lost at sea with a companion coming back from Kahoolawe. One of my friends lost a swimmer friend who was attacked by a tiger shark out there. It ain't disneyland. Good thing she had such great backup. Congrats to Ranie for what she did do.
it isn’t disneyland? maybe that’s why there’s no rides...
Well so much for me wondering if I can swim to Molokini.
I’ve been a swimmer my whole life but I have to agree, these types of swims are just pure stupidity. Regardless of skill or stamina, you’ve got about an 80% chance of dying.
@@GrabbaBeer she was doing it for charity for cancer lol
'This is a very tough swim'. No shit? Is it really worth dying for? Honestly. People are such assholes. When they do get killed...I have NO sympathy for them. You wanna climb above 25,000 feet? Have a ball. Don't whine when hypoxia/frost bite/avalanch/falls/blizzards kill you. Wanna swim in open ocean? When an oceanic white tip takes your fucking legs off at the hip....tough shit eh? Find a safer hobby.........
What a brave lady and kudos to her support team.
Playing the Jaws music over and over actually made me laugh out loud. 🤘🤣

Ok, I can’t swim 15-20 SECONDS in the ocean. I swam 50 meters in a pool I couldn’t reach the floor in, and I thought I was gonna drown. I respect anyone that can do this. ✊
I've been in a shark cage in those waters and just the motion will make you seasick. She's tough as nails.
thats a good start. id say you could do it in 2-4 yeras if yu dedicated yourself to nothing else
This was horrifying enough, but the Jaws theme. NOPE.
I HATE that ocean
Don't fell bad, around 85% of the girls I ask if they can swim; say no, or not well, due to a near drowning experience as a kid ...
Wow incredible respect to this woman. Absolutely amazing strength in all ways.
Life is precious to be risking it like this.
Plot twist: the shark was going to finish the solo swim in 14 hours beating her record
Shark: hold my beer
Took too long to leave the water. Why on earth would I be waiting for the shark to leave? They're very curious creatures and the ocean is it's home. It was probably swimming for hours or days without seeing anything. Its unlikely its just gonna leave. I'd be scared shitless of another one or two sharks close by that have yet to be seen.
white people for you
I am sure this shark came across many sea creatures including fish in the hours or days it was swimming around.
I was wondering the same thing... Why did it take so long for her to decide to go on that boat? How far away was the boat any way? It seemed like it took a bit of them for the boat to come to them... But in any case, I would have jumped right into the boat at the first chance possible.. ESPECIALLY if it was a tiger shark... Im definitely not going to just wait to see if he'll go away. They should be thanking every deity out there that nothing happened.
Josie Farnam I was wondering why she didn't push dude out the kayak and let him take his chance with the shark...oh well
there's peolpe that actually swim openly with sharks in hawaii...
I give this lady credit. She seems to be a senior and doesn't look in great shape. But boy she has amazing strength, courage and endurance to tackle this feat. I know someone that swam this. But she was in tip top shape, was young and trained for many years to tackle this. So thumbs up for Ranie for trying such a heroic feat.
Женщина очень бесстрашная, браво!!! У меня при виде акулы сердце забилось сильно!!!
A spotter actually doing their job & spotting.
I love it when people are good at what they do... nice observation...
If I were the swimmer I would have been spotting myself all the time. Spotting my swimwear, that is.
My worst fear is deep water and this was terrifying me lol
ET -yeah it is kinda creepy swimming in the deep blue open ocean but I love it the most! You feel so small and insignificant when all you can see are the suns rays, deep blue and the bottom is thousands of feet below. The water out there is so clear and looks super clean.
I'm getting anxious just reading your comment!
ET -ha ha😎....sorry!
For me it's open water.
yEPPP, terrifying!
Would've been hilarious if all the shark wanted was an autograph! Sadly, neither paper or tabloids work under the sea! Props the this woman's courage and endurance for such a swim! ^^
Hats off to her.A brave woman.At such expeditions a boat is a must to attend upon this endeavour.
Clearly this woman has never played GTA 5, If she had, she'd know that the moment you get too far away from the map, sharks come and get you.
The boat didn't die though. It must be a glitch.
DarthTwilight haha yeah it's a mod
ahahahaha oooo yees
The Shed it's not a mod tf?
diegobrown19 made my day
The whole time I was like “Just get on the boat!!!”
Zack A TV same
But she wanted to complete the swim. It’s a big achievement, so you should try scare it away first.
As if this video was unsettling enough to watch, they just had to play the fucking Jaws theme haha. NOPE.
same xD i scream "GET ON THE BOAT OR YOU WILL DIE!!!!!" and then my mom was like "what is wrong with you?! Let me watch my movie " xD
Zack A TV the reason she didnt get on the boat is because she had just swam so many miles and then straight away get on the boat she would have given up but they tried to scare it away first so she atleast had a chance to not need the boat
Damn, with the music and all, building suspense. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time.
The music gives me the chills!! OMG!
Damn, This woman would swim in open ocean. I would be lucky to swim in my bath tub without fear, like dang.
Youre a pussy
I live on a beach in NY, I do ocean swims every day in the summer, and have never encountered a shark
@@keirasullivan4326 Or u just didn't notice them lol
Yeah idk if anyone else is ridiculous enough to do this, but sometimes I'm just laying there in the bath and I imagine at water at my feed to be a lot deeper than it really is, and imagine that some creature has somehow managed to appear in there. And I panic. Lol.
MythicalKirsty yeah lmao that’s me
Wow...this whole taping was scary especially when they played the jaws music.
She's crazy. I've been in the waters of Hawaii. They are really warm and feel great while swimming but there are a lot of bull sharks and they are not allowed to kill sharks. Sharks are sacred to Hawaii.
those sharks can also charge from the bottom and tip the boats over and then they eat you. There was a recent incident where a shark jumped into the boat and grabbed the person into the water. I wish they'd stop using those small boats.
was it Tara Reid who was taken?
+Richard Rawlings it was laci green
jquest43 lol I was joking, Tara Reid was the actress in Sharknado, a tragically bad (yet somehow great) movie about flying sharks :)
Superb athlete. I cannot imagine the channel swimmers who venture into the water at night. These are the insanely committed swimmers. It is amazing to they never get attacked (except for the cookie cutter bites). I would be telegraphing fear to the lateral lines and ampullae of Lorenzini the entire swim with a rapid heartbeat and other stress indicators!! Kudos to all of these men and women!
This is awesome! Congrats.
I just watched NYAD on Netflix last week. Incredible feat as well.
Wtf?? How did a shark get into the ocean????? That's crazy
Someone probably released a pet shark into the sewers.

Why would you say that? Who asked that question?
And so deep into the ocean...
Maybe someone's pet escaped

It’s amazing that only had one shark interaction considering swimming in the ocean… goes to show we aren’t part of their food chain!! Much respect to the shark and the women who has the courage and fortitude to swim such a journey… and knows when to get out just in case becomes shark bait!!
Oh yes, we are in sharks' food chain, Many a swimmer over the years has been gobbled up by sharks, never to be seen again.
three things: either the shark is the nicest shark in the ocean, 2 the shark was vegetarian, 3 it wasn't a shark but a rather big sardine..

I saw Jaws in the theater when it released in theaters in 1975. I was 5 years old. My older brother snuck us in. We lived on a lake in Michigan at the time and after watching that movie, I would barely go in above my ankles for about a year 😂
Awesome vid..well edited 👍
" *maam are you okay?* "
" *where are you going?*
" *do you need help?* "
" *are you lost?* "
The shark was just trying to help..but they don't understand😂😂🤣
Same like the guy spearfishing in south africa with a go-pro and encountering a great white who curiously swam up to him. Dude screamed and panicked. Poor inexperienced young shark was just asking the human where is the best place to hunt seals, and human screamed in its face like that. How RUDE! XD 😂😂😂😂
Or the one where the guy was deep sea fishing on a kayak and a hammerhead got a little curious and was swimming around him, and the guy just *paddled* him over and over.
And what’s with cage diving? Those sharks are just trying to help the trapped human break out of prison. They know we can’t breathe underwater and just want to help so we don’t drown! And people freak out. So rude!😂

@@Sonyas1476 😂😔 people are crazy as hell lol.
Sonya Scott tapping the shark with the ore would most likely scare the shark off. They don’t want to work harder for their food if they don’t need to. The moment something starts to put up a fight it is no longer worth it for it then to engage. And forget it if they’re curious about something they’ll just leave it alone if it starts stabbing them lol.
But the way, how are they recording this video from above everyone?
With a drone?
This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen
Very wise to have all the extra support to help avoid any issues. Great teamwork 🐚
A team of dolphins would make a great security escort.
It's even wiser to not try something like this in the first place.

If a GW saw her on the surface, all the back up in the world, wouldn't stop her being bitten in half and consumed, if it came straight up, like they do when they breach and hit a seal. If they see a fin in the water, they can get to her, and get her on the boat, if it hits from below, they can't help at all.

Nicki Garvey Not really her name is Raine Pearce, they have respect for the ocean. Overall she did swim the Molokai to Oahu channel.
@@kainalu9402 She really wasn't like hysteric "omg" ... they seem to be like "okay lets see if he will go away or if we have to cancel this challange".
Lala Lili Maybe you should watch the video without the music & video edits. Then you’ll understand of how panic set in..
@@kainalu9402 So do you? - But I am sure that they weren't "panic" at all or "hysteric" because they knew that this wouldn't help anyone.
Lala Lili “yeah they just continued to make her swim & not jump on the boat”
Telling a shark to go away in the ocean is like walking into someone's house and telling them to get out. 🙄
Kaurdi More like asking them to go into another corner of the room really
Lol
😂😂
Dumbest fucking analogy I’ve seen in forever lol
It's more like telling a homeless person to stop following you.
I couldnt see the shark in any of the footage unfortunately. She is so brave! Glad she is safe.
I’m sad for her that she didn’t get to finish. I’m glad she got out of the water but I hope she tries again someday ❤
If you set out to swim 28 miles in the Pacific ocean, you've got to expect it. But having said that, what a brave & adventurous woman. Full respect & hats off to YOU.
I mean, I don't want to offend anyone, but is it brave or more just stupid to do such long swims in open ocean waters? Couldn't also be the case that there are one or even more white sharks coming and just make a fast attacks or bites instead of observing for minutes, giving the swimmer time to react? I don't know man, but you could never get me into that water.
yea people like you are straight idiots for thinking this is some kind of brave deed. Unless it's a beach with minimal riptide, people should NEVER swim in the ocean EVER..
" is it brave or more just stupid to do such long swims in open ocean waters.... "
To be fair & to add a dose of realism to your comment, they do say "there is a fine line between bravery & stupidity". I'll give you that.....
@@bookofbrah u sure these are open waters and not closed ones, not sure on that one?
@@joysboy6588 Brave is overcoming fear for a meaningful purpose. Heroes are brave. What this woman is doing is stupid.
*woman swims in the ocean*
*shark swims in the ocean*
people: *freaks out because of the shark roaming to it's natural habitat*
Well. To be fair. Youd freak out if you were in the area of a predator on land. It's kinda like you're whole ass instinct.
Not really, you are dumb as fuck
Jerwell savella obviously they aren’t surprised just scared you moron lol
Ranie is hardcore, super inspiring to women! ❤️
