Bonus fact I forgot to mention: As the Sand Shark is related to Research Specimen Theta, this would also make it related to the Blighter and the Bighter as the creatures share common skeletal structures and the classic twin eyes!
WOAH COOL so the bighter and blighter and sand shark must have some kind of relation ,I think the sand shark is a mutant version of the bighter and blighter
It is terrifying that in real life it can potentially ambush you and swallow your whole lower half in one try with that huge mouth. And yet the good ol' Ryley tanks a huge representation of the Reaper of Death underwater calmly.

Yeah Subnautica size is weird, from the first person view everything looks smaller than it actually is! Using console commands and size referencing you can see each creatures true size, which is quite terrifying honestly!
.. one of my favorites 😄.. i saw one tail-perching on the (airmushroom?) and watched it a while.. it seemed like a puppy to me.... Until i was 1k into the tree mushroom forest and it jumped me from behind😂... thought it was a Leviathan and panicked back to the Seamoth, thinking i was done 😂😂😂
Fun fact one time I broke the Ai of 11 sand shark so they are completly passive and they are wandering around my base (I live in the starter area) and it is going on for 3 years😅
I really love the way you make these videos, especially the thumbnails, with the lovely art. The only thing that sucks, is that I've seen every video on your channel. Anyway thx, and I hope you make more of these!
This factfiles have come such a long way! They've always had some awesome info but the editing and presentation is so cool to see now :D Nice work Aletho!
I once was chasing after a cute little peeper I was new to the game at the time and had been wandering just outside the kelp forest exploring then the peeper got scared and swam away only to be eaten by a Sand shark that jumped out of the sand at lighting speed and I saw the poor peeper get turned to yellow mist.
Imagine if they made a spear fishing/exploration game like the first Subnautica. The sheer horror of some of the areas while you're just trying to survive but with out the promise that you'll be saved. I was a bit surprised by the lack of cephalopods in the initial game in general. I was fully expecting a cuddle fish the size of a box truck for the horror/hunter aspect.
At 2:13 when you said the sand shark had fins they seem to act more like paddles which is probably why you dont see them casually swimming far from the ocean bed the paddles remind me of the paddles on ancient prehistoric sand scorpions which probably explains their zig zag swimming. Other than that great video!
its honestly hilarious how pathetically nonthreatening they are once you actually observe them. I usually build my first base in the grassy plateau and while swimming working on my base it took over a minute for a local sand shark to actually bite me. it never went away swimming and roaring outside my base so I just called him Hobbes because I was so unthreatened by him lol
when I first got a sea mouth and was attacked by a sand shark and realized they couldn’t hurt me in there I just started to bully and ram them each time I saw them
Once somebody told me that there was lithium at the back of aurora I got absolutely terrified when I heard a roar then the reaper pretty much went yo what’s up - I quit for 2 years
I Like How Sandsharks Don't Stay At The Dune Craters Where Most Creatures Hang,They Are Much More Sneaky And Probably Don't Want To Interfere With The Other Creatures Nerby That Are Not Their Prey,Like The GLORIOUS 𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗣𝗘𝗥 𝗟𝗘𝗩𝗜𝗔𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗦 And Gasopods...
honestly i don't think these guys are that aggressive- like i don't think i've really ever been bit by one they kinda just chillin and bit you if your are trying to get bit or are new to the game
So, I ended up giving everything a name when playing through Subnautica for the first time. It wasn't quite on purpose, but I didn't fight myself doing it. The Sandshark I had named "bitch." (Is that okay for me to say in the comments here?) They were pretty much just a complete annoyance as I was always fed up with trying to find silver ore when they'd always attack. That's pretty much it. I didn't feel that interested in them.

Megalodon If he has sand powers:
= sand shark
E
infact when i play subnautica i go sand shark hunting with a seamoth that has all of its upgrades all torpeo upgrades
The sand shark: Subnautica's local crackhead
It does like to shake a bit xD
Lmaoo
@@iAlethoIt's literally my uncle
it wasnt sand
I'm glad he's not just covering leviathans, but smaller creatures too.

Riley must have nerves of steel thats for sure xD
_Ryley gets attacked by this thing:_
"Meh, I've seen more deadly things."

They look so friendly, so happy
the camera is so bad, you look as big as a reapers mouth, when youre as big as 2 of its eyes

To everybody confused by the size estimation, subnautica has a strange perspective glitch which makes things look smaller.
this explains the "thumb sized" rockgrub.
"babe wake up, there's a new Aletho upload"
Back at it again with all the lore you need!
@@iAletho Who needs the subnautica wiki when you have Aletho?
@@pneumonologicalTrue
I've been waiting for this video FOR SO LONG
Glad you finally have it Ultra!
The bio illuminescent mouth is a cool addition cuz I’ve never heard of any creature irl with a bio illumines ent mouth very creative
I really love the way you make these videos, especially the thumbnails, with the lovely art.
The only thing that sucks, is that I've seen every video on your channel.
Anyway thx, and I hope you make more of these!
as i have never played Subnautica, u watched DanTDMs playthrough, i didnt think much about sandsharks. but your video changed that!
Sand Shark best shark Abraham!
this style of videos is perfect
This factfiles have come such a long way! They've always had some awesome info but the editing and presentation is so cool to see now :D Nice work Aletho!
Hahaha the editing on this video was such a wild ride, loved it 😄

1:00 those eyes look so dumb up close
Staring into your soul
Oh great! I just finished watching all your videos and was about to go, "Please sir, can I have some more?"
Love your content!
I’d love to see a video about the Boneshark next, or something about the other lifepods and survivors. Love the vids, keep up the good work
Thanks for that new video ❤
No problem Keniou!
I love your videos! They are very interesting!
Thanks CyberCoder! I appreciate your support :)
You should do the crab squid next!
Yeah
Yay!! Sand shark!!!!! Now I am curious on if it can win against a great white shark. Also I hope that we get the bone shark next!!!!!!
It would definitely make an interesting fight!
The sand shark is the pug of the ocean.
Love this channel so helpful to know more about subnauticas most iconic creatures!!!
I appreicate all your support :)
Ur welcome !!!!!🎉😊

4:32 it’s like if someone made art of a polar bear eating a penguin
I never actually got chased around by a sand shark. They’ve always been cool with me
I wanna see the lava lizard
Love your videos an humor, please dont ever stop :)
If they truly don't attack prey that fights back then why TF do they look at a huge mech with drill arms and decide that's their lunch????
They aren't always the brightest xD
One thing I can say. Jimmy (the Sand Shark that is right next to my base making him my neighbour) is pretty friendly, but he bites sometimes.
I love your title art😄
I wanna see the crabsquid and crabsnake
Great video and the Skyrim reference gave me a good chuckle!
Thanks Shiny! Good to see you again :)
Good old underrated sand shark, like seriously its underrated af
Its in the spotlight today!
This creature has another majestic name, the autism shark, and me being slightly autistic and incountering it i think the name fits well
Smartest sand shark when seamoth: ATTACK ATTACK FRIEND!!- OH GOD NO SANDY SHEERKS I WILL REVENGE HIM
This is super good
Thanks Werm!

They could also play a role in its burrowing! :)
@@iAletho true
Please make a vid about the Alterra Corporation! 😁
Could you do one on the Peeper?- "The Peeper: Subnautica's most iconic fish/meal." 🤣
U treat these and Stalkers like how crocodile park workers treat the crocodiles
I love how Mathijs is still Matheus 😭😭😭
Sand shark the man of legend like wiggling around
**WIGGLE**
Still waiting for that Architect documentary….
Btw good video. Giving the lesser known creatures of subnautica some respect
Thanks Astronaut! I hadn't actually thought of that, so keep your eyes peeled! :)
This thing is a massive pain in my backside….
Might leave a few teeth in there too!
Just makes building a base a pain.
It’s terrifying how easily these guys could kill you in real life
Thanks for uploading live your videos!❤
These videos are great Man❤
Let's go I saw this after eating chicos tacos and this a perfect after-meal video
The perfect combo Arc170! Keep the Republic safe out there!
I don't think it ever did any damage to me. It starts to scream and then you have like 30min to get away from it

Hobbes & The Ice Demon, the dynamic duo!

You should do a cuddlefish video next 🙂
These can be fed into your bio reactor line goes harz
You should do snow stalkers next
Once somebody told me that there was lithium at the back of aurora I got absolutely terrified when I heard a roar then the reaper pretty much went yo what’s up - I quit for 2 years
Ty my fav vid ever keep it up
Thanks angusreibelt!

*Slaps 4546B* Sand Sharks - its free real estate
since you did a video about the sand shark, boneshark and the squidshark do you think you could do a video about the brute shark?
I wonder if the aurora radiation gave the funa some fun mutants
oh a sand shark video
It was time!
honestly i don't think these guys are that aggressive- like i don't think i've really ever been bit by one they kinda just chillin and bit you if your are trying to get bit or are new to the game
Imagine a sand shark sleeping bag.
That's so cool
This video is just Hello nightmares!
Ah, the lego yoda scream
Could you make a video on the Titan Holefish from Below Zero?
2:43 or prepare a knife
Cool video
Glad you liked it!
Nice vid
This guy knows more than the pda💀
Do boneshark next or crabsnake
The sand shark and the biter might have been descendants of research specimen theta that theory came from another RUclipsr of subnautica
The PDA confirms they share skeletal stuctures, so descendance is likely
@@iAletho I am on a mission too read every pda entry on subnautica
I just started playing subnautica
Did a giant work just enter a mushroom?
your the best
No you the best picle!
Is it only me, or did anyone else just never see the sandsharks side fins?
I always thought that sand sharks were high or on crack
Maybe its all that Blood Grass!?
A sandshark got stuck in my base and now it just glitches around lol
It has made itself your pet!
Riley Robinson is 1m 55 or 5,2 feet
2:00 they say the same thing about rhinos
Neat! I never knew that!
Nothing in this game looks as big as it actually is
True! The first person camera makes everything look smaller! :)
The sandshark’s eyes are positioned on the sides of it’s head, therefore it is classified as a prey animal.
Thats a good point, I wonder what its looking for?
@@iAletho An escape from me
Gotta be honest, I found these guys more funny than anything. Bonesharks on the other hand…
They're just dancing!

Can you do crabsquids
i thought the shark in sandshark meant its a turtle
sand shark is not a threat
0:34 no meters:(
Unlike the Stalker I don't like the Sand Shark because they are persistent.
They're always coming back!
@@iAletho I need my personal space!
teckined is correct although not so much crack as it is cocaine or mabye adrenilne
Pls try Planet crafter
Shark isopods.
Don't worry he don't bite😊
**Crunch**
i wouldn't call it "terrifying"... more "drunk"
His looks derpy
Hes just a little silly lowkey.
OMG!!!!
