The hooks are stil in the mouth from what I see.
Ore the go out of them self
Watching nature documentaries in a strange way calms the soul
When I was younger I was surfing with babies hammerheads around me! It is my favorite shark 🥰
Ur point
🎉
My favorite shark too. I have hammerhead shark tattoos 😂
We lived on the Gulf of Mexico around Aransas Pass & swam with baby hammerheads as well. We were warned the really BIG ones were way out in the Gulf. We also swam with rays & sand sharks. Posted signs instructed beach goers to shuffle their feet along the sea floor as opposed to lifting their feet up & down; this way you bump the rays & sharks & they skitter off, but if you step on them you risk bite or sting. So we never gave them a thought. Everybody swam in the ocean. Then Jaws came out. The beaches were suddenly empty. I stopped swimming after that as well. Thanks, Steven! You ruined my life! Waaaa....
OMG, you're so lucky to have hung out with THE COOLEST sharks on the planet!!!
The legend of Big Moe around Bahia Honda Key. I used to love the stories from the local fisherman about this beast of the Florida Keys. I lived down in the Keys for awhile when I was younger. It was cool experience in life that's for sure.
I found one back in 1967....My Father and i were trolling for Kingfish in the Gulf stream off the coast of Palm Beach, Florida. We were about a 50 to 75 yards behind a group of 5 or 6 commercial fishing boats who were also trolling for Kingfish. I was at the helm our boat which was an 18 footer. My Father had a Kingfish on when the line went slack and he reeled in the head or a large Kingfish, the body was gone, a clean bite. As he was dealing with that he told me to drop the motor in neutral and we were just kind of floating. I looked starboard and saw a dorsal fin sticking up about a foot above the gunnel, the Hammerhead was just floating there with us, right next to our boat bumping against the side when a wave would roll through. I looked up to the bow and saw its head fairly even to the bow and then looked to the stern and the Hammerheads tail fin was almost even with the stern. I figured the shark to be at least 17 feet, possibly 18 feet. It was a huge Hammerhead. We floated like that for about 15 seconds and then Hammerhead submerged a bit turned to port and up under our boat. It popped our 18 foot boat up, not completely out of the water but with enough force to knock me out of my seat and onto the deck. I'll never forget that day and have been fascinated with big sharks ever since. It's cool to see one on video, it's life changing to be within inches of one that's sizing you up when you're 10 miles out at sea.
Wow! What an amazing encounter and memory to share with your dad. Thank you for sharing. 🦈
Wow ! Gray hammerheads EAT other sharks....I didn't know that. 😳 I love learning new things like this.
I believe they are Great Hammerheads, not Gray.
They're "Great" hammerheads not "Gray" hammerheads.
I saw a huge hammerhead while in the navy cruising into key west in the 1980s.
How big was he? Did you need a bigger boat?
This is such a cool video. I love learning new things about our ocean the most. Sharks are so awesome and especially hammerhead sharks!! 🥰🤩☺
Hammerheads are thought to be the most highly evolved of all shark species. The great hammerhead has even been called the most highly evolved shark of all shark species. They're considered a highly intelligent species of shark, as well.
Amazingly sharp. Wonderful biodiversity. Well done!
Everyone on boat: “Aww, a nurse shark. Boooo!”
Nurse Shark: “Bruh. Rude”
It's amazing to me how a big program like NG, has SOO many ads! Much smaller have less or zero ads.
Thats how it works the more subscriptions the more ads
Excellent documentary NatGeo always the best
This is a great documentary!
Thank you Nat Geo!!!🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️ Excellent video!!!👍👍👏🏻😍😍😍
Now watching From mizoram ❤
Really enjoyed this video. Thank you!
This is a great documentary! In fact, I went to Tubbataha Reef last month to finally see hammerhead sharks with my very own eyes. Unfortunately, I was the only one who wasn't able to see them clearly from afar. But still, it was a dream dive trip to check off from my bucket list!
HUGE
wow, Amazingly sharp :D
My favorite shark ❤
Thank you for the great video. Much appreciated!
My favorite shark!! So beautiful
Cameraman never dies
OKAY I UNDERSTAND YOU GUYS TAKING SAMPLES ,,, NOW JUST TO BE FAIR WHY DONT YOU GIVE THE SHARKS SMAPLES. 🤣🤣
Excellent
Several years ago I was snorkeling on a reef in the Bahamas and if you been snorkeling on these reefs it drops down into the wild blue younder and I saw one I estimated at about 10’ and I’ve been fishing, snorkeling and diving in many different places and the size of that thing scared the poo out of me and not sure if I’ll get back into the Ocean ever again😂🤷♂️
Love that they named the video staions "Bruv"
Stay safe and strong! Good luck🙏
Sharks are endangered species, these sharks dont attack people.
Thank y'all so much!! Beautiful, informative, everything going good this show!!
I dated a guy had a great big hammerhead I thought. San Diego Lifeguard 😂😂😂😂😂.
Really enjoy this! There was a fella and two other's.Whom use to go out with these guys.He would hold the hammer head by the front and swim. I've got to look it up.
Love NatGeo😊
I saw a huge hammerhead when I was on a cruise in the Bahamas in 2012. It was cool
Great job!
Padre Island national seashore caught multiple 14 ft hammerhead sharks in the last couple years
Rizzo did great. She is not afraid of the sharks!
Super
The hammerhead shark is my favorite shark
That record hammer was caught off Boca Grande, Fl. By Buckey Dennis. They transported it off the island on a flatbead trailer. I'm surprised they didn't make a trip there for this research. They are frequently seen eating the tarpon off people's line. There was an old tale when I was growing up out there about one named ol' hitler that was supposedly close to 20 ft, but you know how fish tales are.
I heard the 20 footer around Boca Grande Pass was nicknamed The General. Spoke with a couple of people over the years who actually saw her! They said she was a monstrosity!
@shirleymoore4837 I grew up on Boca back in the 80s, the one I always heard talk of as a kid was nicknamed Hitler.
Heard of one named The Harbor Master too. Maybe the same shark but I like to think not. Said to be over 20ft
That area is renowned for giant hammerheads, and l also grew up hearing stories about Old Hitler, etc. You would think that if some scientists wanted to catch and study a giant hammerhead, then they would go someplace which is known to be full of them at certain times of the year. Also, l really doubt that they'd be able to pull in a real giant on a ha dline without getting yanked out of their boat.
Guys i think Davy Jones had a crew whose head was a Hammerhead shark😅
You are correct lol
"... So, we'll just dive down take a look around and if the current is kind of ripping we can just head right back up. "
Two hours later... no show!
I guess the current was kind of ripping or they found a record size Hammerhead!
My two friends and I were fishing off La Jolla in the 70's and a HUGE hammerhead appeared. We hooked it three times and all three times it bit through out 200 lb braided stainless leader. Sea World was out there also and the next day there was an article by them saying it was approximately 19 ft and 2200 lbs.
You scientists should talk to us fishermen. You gotta search at dusk.
It’s disgusting that people are murdering sharks to eat just their fins.
Who? The Chinese?
@@newmennium Yup. These pieces of sh** are overfishing to the point we're about to lose multiple species of shark. I'm not saying America is not at fault at all, we always are, but the scale they do it compared to the US is astronomical.
it's disgusting that sharks eat people
@@newmennium
They are the largest place to consume Shark Fins.
@@jonte8376 no it’s not. If people don’t want to get attacked then stay out of the ocean where the sharks live.
Hammerhead hammered their hooks straight☝🏼
Thank mr shark😎 I send you camels from my desert 🦧🦧🦧🦧🐪🐪
Ban fin soup!🦈
One chased a fish I was bringing up in boat off Pompana beach near Boynton beach FL. Most aggressive thing I've seen.
Saw a video of a dude feeding one atleast 10' I was soprised by the size when I first saw the video of one I think they where fishing right under that same bridge
Blackie Reasor caught a 14'4" 703 pound hammerhead off the Jacksonville Beach pier in Florida in 1975....
The summer of JAWS !
I seen big hammer heads and tiger sharks in Hawaii in certain places.
I heard of a hammerhead named Hector, from the Indian Ocean. Said 18.5 foot.
Boca Grande Pass, Florida. I think they call her "The General". Rumored to be at least 20 feet. Been hearing about her for years. .
I've seen a 15 foot hammerhead hooked of the beach in Florida. Y'all should come swim
You're looking on the wrong site of the continent. I dived in the Baja California and spoted Hanners at about 5 to 6 meters length. The where very impressive. Also spottet several big whites at all sizes
I like how they fluff this with all the science and what have you's. Yet they still gotta find the big mamba jamba 🤥🤣
I wish I could transform into a shark with human arms.
I think the bent and snapped hook was a set up. 😂
Edit: I should have known they wouldn't find a record setter.
This documentary is excellent!
Antenna headed shark
Try corpus christi texas we've got two fourteen foot within the last five years
Training like Hoosiers around chairs
Name your favorite water mammal/species/animal I’m kinda curious. Mine is by far the Orca.
Does a portion of the hook remain in the sharks jaw when released ""….
.❤😅
23:45. There is a hook int the mouth of the shark.
I was on Rod &Reel peir on Anna Maria Island in 1976 Frank Cavendish caught a 17.1 in 1767 lb Great Hammerhead check news paper because it was not caught on rod and reel it wasn't noted by IFGA
Why didn't they remove the hooks on those nurse sharks? Do they just fall out eventually?
I love hammer head sharks❤❤😊❤❤🦈🦈❤❤❤❤❤🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈❤
Hope people can stop harvesting shark fins and eating shark fin soup to prevent these amazing creatures from exintiction
You left part of the hook in the sharks mouths when you released them??
Oh no
wow
7:59 -We can’t see a large shark but guarantee he can see you!
You mean "feel/smell" you. They don't have the best eyesight at all.
Best 🦈 sharks

Recap by Tammy AI
It's "Great" Hammerheads not "Gray" Hammerheads.
Give it a couple years.... Nat Geo will 'document' Bigfoot fishing somewhere. All 12 foot of him.
Yep. Just YT BS for fools
Alas, I know of a few people here in Idaho who would be hoping for this😂!
The fact that they killed that massive fish and hung him on a wall
If you watch anything about large hammerheads, the key is using live stingray for bait. For an entire film crew and team of students to fish for days and only use cut bait is embarrassing. They could try that for decades and never catch a true giant as they just won’t eat that.
You used my video footage without licensing it from me! Captain Rob Gorta.
😮
You can get it from tiger beach
That's messed up....looked like they leave the hook in the nurse sharks mouth 😵
Why does she believe that finding large apex predators is so critical to science? Finding one without other context data and long term population data is like spotting an elephant in the wild. Soooooo…we now know they exist WHERE you looked for them! Amazing!!!
Go to the Persian Gulf and you'll find Hammerhead sharks that can swallow two four foot blacktop and bite a full grown sheep at the same time. Spotted in 1986 off the U. S. S. Tripoli LPH-10. The People use barges to transport sheep and when one dies they throw it overboard. When there aree sheep floating youll see reef sharks feeding and then the Hammerhead will come in to feed
Do they just cut the line and leave the hook attached to the shark's mouth when they release it🤔🤔🤔
No they don’t!
Hammers are documented at 24 plus feet
Sharks were turned off by the strange crew pursuing them.
NOT possibleto view from UK unless like me you use a VPN!
Like..... Surfshark?! 😂🤘
@@derikroy5I've heard of a SurfShark! Hope one is found!
NEW ZEALAND MONSTER HAMMERHEADS
😮
As for the last minute of the video..... Yes, a COMPLETE failure. They should have named it... "Why doesn't Nessie live here? ...Hint: Maybe she does !!"
Stainless steel and barbs.
Shark is very dangerous
These sharks are not dangerous.
What are they using for bait? Hmmm...OK, I see they're using fish heads. That probably won't catch a giant hammerhead. To catch a giant sized fish requires a giant sized bait. And they KNOW what kind of prey a hammerhead eats.
Unless it is illegal to use these as bait (which may be the case) try the following: To catch a huge hammerhead, try using a medium to large eagle ray (or any ray) with three hooks in it, or a 4 to 5-foot, live blacktip shark with a couple of hooks in it, similar to the hooks used on a lure or jig. These things are the sort of food that a giant hammerhead would eat.
If those things are illegal to use for bait, try a whole fish, not just a fish head, as bait. Use very fresh bait; maybe even live bait.
Another suggestion -- there was a fisherman who recommended a place to fish. Ask what that person is using for bait, when he catches hammerheads. It's possible hammerheads prefer live bait, for instance, just as some types of freshwater catfish can only be caught with live bait.
Also, use bigger hooks than the one the shark broke or bent out, and if you can find a very large, NON stainless hook, that's what I suggest using. It probably won't be possible to find a very large hook that's not stainless, but just in case the shark breaks off with the hook attached, it would be best to NOT be using a stainless steel hook because it will take a very long time to rust out.
They are endangered species.
❤️😍🥰👏👍💪

Decent but change the title to "searching for the worlds largest hammerhead" not Finding....
In the mid 1980's, I saw a massive Hammerhead of 22 to 25 feet long just off the Gulf Coast of Florida near Boca Grande. This sharks dorsal stood about 5 foot out of the water. Unmistakable dorsal fin identification.
