Stingrays don’t have big enough teeth to do damage like a shark and they are so flat that they haven’t got the jaw type to bite down on something like a shark. Steve was stung in the chest by a bull ray.
@@siphy9335 they can. There are stories of fishermen who have had their fingers crushed when trying to remove the hook from the mouth of rays or when dealing with them underwater (feeding). Their mouths are designed to crush crustaceans and other shellfish.
One of my favorite clips from the show. Really shows you how chaotic it can be down there! First 1 barracuda, then a group of them, then group of random fish calling in more predators, then stingray, then barracuda again 😂
I grew up camping and fishing in the Florida keys, Long Key state park. My best friend Scott came with us many times growing up. We lost many thousands of wire leaders trying to catch these guys. We nick named him merl. That was our code for them as we would get in trouble if my dad knew we went out fishing on purpose for him because we lost so much money in tackle trying lol. This was in the late 80's early 90's junior high and high school days. RIP Scott, this video brought me back to our great years man. See you on the other side bro.
Stingrays are curious u can’t help a person stay away from one, if something is happening a ray will come through the only way to keep them away from people is if people don’t go in the water at all.
I've fed stingrays before in one of those touch pools where you can pet them. You're supposed to hold food between your knuckles with your hand in a fist so they don't clamp down on any fingers. Seeing as they can bite through shellfish, I'm surprised all he said was Christmas Eve lol
I got stung by a sting ray on the foot and it put me down on the ground in pain so fast. Not a pleasant time so if your going into any water with stingrays always do the stingray shuffle.
@@hiii3878 when in the water dont step shuffle your feet through the sand or what ever is under you, the stingrays can feel or hear the shuffling and get scared off instead of you stepping on it.
Aw hell naw! Those fricking rays already got Steve Irwin and now they want to pick off Jeremy too?? Flaming pancakes, trying to kill everyone who actually like and cares for them...
You just KNOW he was thinking about Steve Irwin when that stingray was swimming around him... I've been watching nature shows since I was three years old, and I honestly never knew stingrays could bite; I always figured it was the other end you had to watch out for...
As someone who’s also been bit by a stingray, yeah. Yeah that’s pretty much an appropriate reaction😂 It’ll give you a purple finger for about a week, but it scares you more than it hurts you!
I think we're collectively missing the fact that this absolute madman just HAND FED a goddamn STRINGRAY. One wrong move, one misplaced hand or too quick gesture, and he could be in agony for days on end, and yet he just casually hands the thing a fish and lets it hang around him for who knows how long. I'm suprised he can still swim considering how heavy his solid brass balls must be.
@@snicksss They're either joking that Jeremy is poisonous himself, or they're stupidly insinuating that a stingray dies after biting, either ironically somehow or seriously. I highly doubt it's the latter at all.
There was a tourist platform that as a kid I went to in Southeast Asia and it was 'haunted' by a barracuda that had learned it can get free food from humans. You can slap the surface of the water to attract its attention. I had it in front of me and took some really blurry photos with my underwater camera. These animals are incredibly intelligent by fish standards and a species I absolutely adore.
I remember a pretty widely reported instance of a diver whose testicles were severed by the bite of a stingray in a baiting/feeding scenario just like this.
Richie Hembree no it’s not. Having free cigs and tv is not better than having a job and contributing to society. I hope you get your shit together when you get out, otherwise you’ll never earn the respect we all want you to have. Gods best!
*NEVER* hand feed around barracudas. They have been known to take a diver's fingers too, when striking in for the bait. I was in the Florida Keys fishing and catching lots of Bonita fish (about 18" long, +/- 3 to 5 pound size), and when about 20-ft. from the boat, they stopped fighting. When I reeled them in, they had been bitten *clean in half* by barracudas - like a cleaver. FYI, Bonita have a 4 bone cross-bone skelital structure like King fish. A barracuda bite strength is serious - do not hand feed them.
Those Barracuda were small compared to the one I saw ,whilst diving off Cape Hatteras . It was at least 6 to 7 feet long and the girth 2 feet 6 inch around but it always stayed just outside of arms length ,
He's talked about Steve Irwin before, def commented on what a tragedy it was, but not much more than that. Probably wasn't willing to use the tragedy of a good man's death to make the what he was doing look more exciting and risky. Which I can respect
Under my dive boat, between me and the ladder, was a 6-8 ft. barracuda...just hangin'. Like he knew he was keeping us from getting back on the boat. No one tried to shoo him away - we just waited 10 minutes til he moved on. So, who lost a foot?
When I was snorkeling in xpuha I came across a few 2-3 foot barracuda when I was free swimming. Honestly scared the shit outta me. Don't know if it was some kind of mangroves along the fresh/saltwater springs. Given i was 14-15 at the time I was scared shitless 😂. From southern Canada so best we got is northern pike, walleye, numerous types of trout, some bass and carp just to name a few. Nothing better than a pickrel for lunch. Mmmm the cheeks on those. Fresh water scallops
Once when I was deep sea fishing about 25 miles off shore at about 120 feet down I had a barracuda encounter. We were using wire for fishing line and at first I didn’t know why. I was watching my bait flow back and fourth in the open ocean about 120 feet deep when I saw a black line zoom from left to right so fast I would have missed it if I blinked. I reeled my line in to find it absolutely shredded. The first mate said “yep barracuda” while he switched out my rod.
Stingrays man ... First they go after steve irwin now they want jeremy wade ?!!!
nooo please dont u can stab Justin Bieber but dont take Jeremy wade
How did it go after him when he came after them? Stupid!

Morons, the joke is that there was a stingray related accident. It's ironic.
Upen Graden exactly. Could of easily have been Jeremy.
Then I would of called for a full on full of sting rays. 😆
Jeremy: i was bitten by a stingray
Me: stingrays can bite???
Like... some of the shittiest bites to get. It sucks.
At least he didmt get stung
@@tsuj1911 I though that's wat they meant by "bitten" lol
You really don’t want one to full on “bite” you. Their mouthes are meant for crushing, I believe they can break your fingers?
@@siphy9335 they can. There are stories of fishermen who have had their fingers crushed when trying to remove the hook from the mouth of rays or when dealing with them underwater (feeding). Their mouths are designed to crush crustaceans and other shellfish.
Jeremy: CHRISTMAS EVE

Just turned to comment about "Christmas Eve". You, Jeremy are a much bigger man than I.
This is a family show!
Or is it?
I’ll excuse myself

How to catch a stingray :
Step 1: *Insert famous man in the water*
Step 2: Cry ( RIP Steve Irwin)

Jeremy wade is the type of guy that would go into the basement with the lights off.
_”Injuries are said to be agonizing & in extreme cases have resulted in death”_

Well, stinger to the heart was a pretty extreme(and rare) case...

Barracuda are much more nimble, subtle and have their identity mistaken as just another fish. Sharks are easy to see and easily identifiable 🤷🏻♂️

Man, those Barracuda's mouths are really sharp. Bites pretty much everything in half.
How you get bit by a pancake with a broken butter knife attached to it
Ask Irwin (Erwin) who got stung by one.
@@dakotaseiler8545 Not stung, it jolted back into him with the spine, it wasnt malevolence it was accidental.
Rassen Krieg that’s called being stung dumbass
@@Lospollos24 Yes but it was still accidental.The stingray didn't intentionally kill Irwin and even if it did it wouldn't of done it without motive.

feeding stingray is really a lot of fun but they are very bitey.

”Ohf Christmas Eve”

3:42 steve, u are a legend
I love how he said he was relying solely on the rebreather but he had a back up tank on his hip
That sting ray looked malicious when he was gliding the sea floor 😆.
Just when we were thinking about giving Rays a chance they do this 😂
Jeremy is hand feeding predators under water with bare hands and no bubbles hehehe
That exact thing happened to me and my cousin in Cancun.

Jaremy Wade : CHRISTMAS EVE that hurt ! The stingray just bit me and the pain was excruciating !
* Steve Irwin has entered the chat *

Jeremy Wade: dive in a spot full of barracuda, fish, stingrays and too much blue.
Me: *Afraid to dive in Subnautica*
To be fair, the ocean probably doesn't have reaper leviathans
The world lost a great man and the best conservationist I have seen in Steve Irwin. You can tell that man loved everyone and everything
I remember a pretty widely reported instance of a diver whose testicles were severed by the bite of a stingray in a baiting/feeding scenario just like this.
Lucky he didnt give him the steve irwin treatment

Barracuda is like a heat seeker. It locks on to its target and then moves in for the kill.

Barracuda are so cool man. They way their teeth litterally slice things in half like a pair of scissors
I've fed a small sting ray at an aquarium, and they have a crushing mouth. No teeth, but two crushing plates that suck up food. It was pretty cool
Yep they’re scavengers
Al Sp yeah, but they weren't visible.
