You guys did an awesome job saving that shark! You really did “fair dinkum” ! But seriously, it’s so fabulous that you all reached out to save this creature when it surely would’ve died. We need more people like you. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
WoW, that was totally amazing. Well done for saving that beautiful majestic fishes life. I could not believe just how big it was, not until it swam under your boat.. Thank you for posting this video here on RUclips. Kindest Regards Sarah☺️ Ps, I love to listen to you guys bantering together.
Thanks for sharing this. That 'Porker' wanted to give you a great big kiss for saving her, or express gratitude however Great Whites do, (it didn't want to leave you). Makes for a great start to the day! You folks are fantastic.
What is the red stuff in the water? At first, I thought it was the shark's blood, but as the video went on, there was too much of it. Is it algae? Surprised to see a shark in tassie waters. I presumed the water would be too cold. Good on you blokes for helping the shark out.
I love Australian people they have a love for animals no matter if it is a shark a crocodile a kangaroo whatever they have the love for all creatures thank you for doing what was right
Me too. I have been watching every great white shark video. The damage they can do when they make that first attack is ridiculous. They are the most terrifying and fascinating creatures on planet earth
WALKMAN Aussie bogan 🤔 I'm pretty sure Aussies don't care weather you can understand us or not.... if anything we'd have to talk in not a bright fashion for you to understand
They all had a nice afternoon of shark releasing and vegimite sandwiches. Crazy bloats. Seriously though thank you for doing the right thing. You guys rock.
Great to see the Great White saved, they have just as much right to be in the ocean as we have. It's all part of the ecosystem. Those asking to kill the shark are just wrong IMO.
If there is one thing I can't stand it is monster shark hunters like Vic Hislop. We don't need people like this today. I absolutely hate these monster shark goofs. I don't want a world where the only place you can see a great white shark is stuffed hanging in the Smithsonian. And all these monster shark macho goofs are part of it.
Why is the water that color, could it be a sign of a red tide? I'm not sure but once he got out of there he was doing better. That was a pretty big GW shark. When they are turned upsidedown the go into a tatonic state, that is how the Killer (Dolfin) Whale, kills them. The killer whale is not a whale but it is the largest member of the dolfin family. Thanks!
Prince Ricker it was caught in a net and my guess is the color of the water is due to mud at the shores edge....it became clear just a bit further out.
Any other country and it was quite possibly dinner. I believe most Aussies still have a sense empathy towards the natural environment. Aussie Government and big business, not so much
Good on you guys!.....its just an animal and does what it does....be 100 miles away by morning, or not, lol.......can't blame them for doing what they've done for 1 million years
Looks like that shark wants to stay with his new friends. This Great White shark just wants a great big hug. WTF are they saying? This bloody video needs subtitles, Mate. Good on ya and your Mates. Cheers!
There seems to be footage of two sharks spliced together here (not sure why). The shark in difficulty at the start is definitely a Thresher (note the huge tail fin with distinctive 'diamond' tip). The footage at the end, around 8:00 mins in, shows a Great White without question (note the distinct white underside and pointed snout). More importantly, note the fact that the tail fin doesn't even break the surface as it is much shorter than the first shark - just compare their sizes to the dorsal fins. If the second shark WAS the first shark, it's tail fin would still be cutting the surface despite the dorsal tip only just showing. In short, shark 1: Thresher, shark 2: Great White. Still great footage!
pursuit 82 No need to be so rude. After watching the footage again, I have to admit I was wrong. It IS a Great White. I can now see the white at the lower ends of the tail and the distinctive wide caudal keel as the shark thrashes about. Everyone can make a mistake and today this was mine! Great White it is...
Fishermen aren't the brightest... I was thinking, "which one will to lose a limb because they assume it's dead." They should have kept the rope on it and taken it out to deeper water.
There are two different sharks in this video.The first one is for sure not a great white maybe a thrasher but the one at the end of the video is a great white
no you are very wrong... 1 Great white... as for the thresher shark i.d like others before you, I am guessing you have not googled a picture of one, let alone seen one in real life. first one to call two different sharks though.
Awesome job guys! That's a HUGE & BEAUTIFUL GWS! For people saying it's a Thresher, you're either trolling for likes, trying to mess with people or just simply DUMB. 15+ easily. Also, the water color is from the GWS beached on the bottom. Kicking up mud. You guys ROCK!
The net it was stuck in was the problem mate... initially the crew though it was dead and it was up side down not moving and second boat was brought in... probably should of died as it was stationary for some time give or take.....
Is the shark confirmed as a Great White....? It does not look like a Great White. I have cage dived with them in Gainsbaai South Africa and that shark does not seem to have the body shape of a Great White.... The tail fin looks too high and the shark's girth not wide enough.....?
I'm not gonna lie there's like 5 things that are my greatest fears not being able to save my daughter in a life threatening situation, SHARKS , burning alive, spiders and werewolves. I know the last one is ridiculous. But I think that was awesome how they didn't just say "F××k It one less shark to worry about" so Major Props to the crazy was Tasmanians.
It's an algal bloom, sometimes called red tide. It occurs in hot spells, and when water begin s to become anoxic (deoxygenated). Incredibly dangerous to marine life for two reasons: it physically suffocates them through coating the gills; and removes oxygen from the water. The lack of oxygen makes the shark dopey and restricts oxygen flow to the brain, resulting lethargy, poor decisions, and it prevents the flight instinct from getting the shark (or any animal) out of danger. The red tide makes everything dopey, that why the,shark wasn't moving. As soon as it was in clear water it was fine, and clearly was thinking again, which is why it came back to assess and observe the humans that helped it. That beauty will now trust humans, sadly.
The story can also be read about in the book “White Pointer South” , By Chris Black,a book about Great White Sharks in Tasmania,Not tiger or nurse sharks...
I always thought a study should be done on humans why if you move people from Britian to Australia do they talking like that? It's bizarre when you think about it.
I'm an Australian and my best guess as to why we talk the way we do is . 1> It's a blend of how aboriginals speak 2> believe it or not if you spend a lot of time in the bush and you open your mouth too much a fly will go straight down it. I live in a city so the problem in cities isn't so bad but when I go out the bush I try not to open my mouth too much, seriously you can easily swallow 4 or five flies in about half an hour. So if you wan't to try having an Australian accent hold your nose while speaking and don't open you mouth much. A word which is modified by Australians is "how" in full Aussie mode we say ow. I think the h was dropped because that's the point at which the fly flew into your mouth. So "how are you" is "ow are ya". BTW we run our words together with little or no breaks. It's even confused me when I got my first job my boss said "didjahavacanacoke" . I had to have him repeat it 4 times before I understood him , "Did You Have A Can of Coke".
no Tasmanians drink fosters beer . its terrible. south drink cascade and north drink boags . im from north boags is better . but that's what i grew up with
Don't be a fuck wit. Culling sharks is retarded. More people die crossing the road then get bit by sharks. Should we ban cars or crossing the road? No because that would be retarded.
Actually....Firstly, thanks for the compliment. Lovely. There is another version of the footage where it does not show the shark swimming way, as an aside I am happy to see the musing of a non-judgmental person. Well done on your parents.
Makes me proud to be Aussie! "We just saved you, ya bastard! Don't come back!". Love it.
You guys did an awesome job saving that shark! You really did “fair dinkum” ! But seriously, it’s so fabulous that you all reached out to save this creature when it surely would’ve died. We need more people like you.
Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
"We just saved yer, ye bastard.... Don't come back!" .. Gotta love the Aussies!
😂
Thanks for saving such a beautiful animal...
bblando65 it's not animal it's a fish .i bet u don't cry when u eat chicken or a burger
WoW, that was totally amazing. Well done for saving that beautiful majestic fishes life. I could not believe just how big it was, not until it swam under your boat.. Thank you for posting this video here on RUclips. Kindest Regards Sarah☺️
Ps, I love to listen to you guys bantering together.
Good for them for saving this white pointer. Well done guys...!!!
Thanks for sharing this. That 'Porker' wanted to give you a great big kiss for saving her, or express gratitude however Great Whites do, (it didn't want to leave you). Makes for a great start to the day! You folks are fantastic.
I know this is years old, but very gratifying to watch.
What is the red stuff in the water? At first, I thought it was the shark's blood, but as the video went on, there was too much of it. Is it algae? Surprised to see a shark in tassie waters. I presumed the water would be too cold. Good on you blokes for helping the shark out.
Looks like bioluminescence
It's an algal bloom.
I love Australian people they have a love for animals no matter if it is a shark a crocodile a kangaroo whatever they have the love for all creatures thank you for doing what was right
Elizabeth Hodge Er what?
He did thank them. He stayed near them after the boat pulled him out and swam close to their boat. That was his way of saying thanks.
For once a shark video i haven`t seen before!
Same
Me too. I have been watching every great white shark video. The damage they can do when they make that first attack is ridiculous. They are the most terrifying and fascinating creatures on planet earth
Nice going boys, did not understand a bloody word you said. But thanks for helping it go free. Yes i am a Surfer
Good on you guys for saving the shark. Respect.
Lol, click on cc for subtitles. RUclips needs to update their programming to translate Aussie bogan.
WALKMAN Aussie bogan 🤔 I'm pretty sure Aussies don't care weather you can understand us or not.... if anything we'd have to talk in not a bright fashion for you to understand
Adrian Smith *whether
I have no idea what you guys were saying (and I English is my native tongue) but you guys rock saving that shark!!! Humanity exists!
thats very kind of you said the great white and i must say that your little boy looks very appetizing with some beans and a nice bottle of Chianti.
Ahhhh....it's good to hear my native language on youtube for a change.
***** That's true blue Aussie. Are you from over seas?
Catweasle love it 👍
Catweasle Didn't understand a bloody word. Definitely Aussie.
True blue ocker.
Fabulous job you lot, just wonderful to see.
Beautiful!!! Great job mates!!!
And the shark said "Thanks fellas, catch you later ; )"
They all had a nice afternoon of shark releasing and vegimite sandwiches. Crazy bloats. Seriously though thank you for doing the right thing. You guys rock.
Bloats?
Great to see the Great White saved, they have just as much right to be in the ocean as we have. It's all part of the ecosystem. Those asking to kill the shark are just wrong IMO.
Could not agree, more.
If there is one thing I can't stand it is monster shark hunters like Vic Hislop. We don't need people like this today. I absolutely hate these monster shark goofs. I don't want a world where the only place you can see a great white shark is stuffed hanging in the Smithsonian. And all these monster shark macho goofs are part of it.
roquefortfiles Easy there, it's not the 70's & 80's anymore. The Great White population is thriving & is actually returning to an abundant level.
PJ Neslo They have more right than we do 🤘🏻
They have every right to be right where they are. It's us that needs to respect their home.
Why is the water that color, could it be a sign of a red tide? I'm not sure but once he got out of there he was doing better. That was a pretty big GW shark. When they are turned upsidedown the go into a tatonic state, that is how the Killer (Dolfin) Whale, kills them. The killer whale is not a whale but it is the largest member of the dolfin family. Thanks!
Best commentary ever 😂
Bloody Taswegians get all the fun. I would say a 14 footer, beautiful fish, well done Boys!!
Did they manage to cut all that net away? i get a a bit concerned when I see a bit of net or six pack plastic hanging off the wild life as it swims by
Lots of coral spawn there,where is the coral around Tasmania?
lol, these people are characters. Love it!
Looks like a red tide. The shark may have been stuck in shore and suffering from a lack of oxygen in the water. Well done, fellas.
Prince Ricker it was caught in a net and my guess is the color of the water is due to mud at the shores edge....it became clear just a bit further out.
He is seriously tuckered out...but I'm so glad he was saved...big ups to you bloaks
Any other country and it was quite possibly dinner. I believe most Aussies still have a sense empathy towards the natural environment. Aussie Government and big business, not so much
why is the eater red?
Well Done Lads.
Are they speaking...English?
it looks to me that the shark was still caught up in net or not in good health.. because i would think it wouldve swam away and not back toward beach.
Asians would of killed it and sold its fins
Will the shark survive ? it looked a bit knackered
I'm thinking boots, fin soup, shark teeth wall mounting. Should have told the kid it was a dolphin and he should swim with him.
How long you reckon she was head to tail, 15 feet or so?
Good on you guys!.....its just an animal and does what it does....be 100 miles away by morning, or not, lol.......can't blame them for doing what they've done for 1 million years
Can’t understand what they said but Did they mention china?
You reckon it beached getting away from a orka?
Awesome mates good job!
Excellent work gentlemen.
Looks like that shark wants to stay with his new friends. This Great White shark just wants a great big hug.
WTF are they saying?
This bloody video needs subtitles, Mate.
Good on ya and your Mates.
Cheers!
Thanks for uploading!
Who'd they call...

Still great footage!
It's a Great White you novice!
pursuit 82 No need to be so rude. After watching the footage again, I have to admit I was wrong. It IS a Great White. I can now see the white at the lower ends of the tail and the distinctive wide caudal keel as the shark thrashes about. Everyone can make a mistake and today this was mine! Great White it is...
Peter Fellowes you got it wrong and admitted it, something you don't see often good on ya
Shark...wants to say thank you!
Fishermen aren't the brightest... I was thinking, "which one will to lose a limb because they assume it's dead."
They should have kept the rope on it and taken it out to deeper water.
That's a pretty big flatty
There are two different sharks in this video.The first one is for sure not a great white maybe a thrasher but the one at the end of the video is a great white
no you are very wrong... 1 Great white... as for the thresher shark i.d like others before you, I am guessing you have not googled a picture of one, let alone seen one in real life. first one to call two different sharks though.
Tail replicates a thresher shark because it is in such shallow water and is propped up on the seabed. It's a white pointer.
great save fella's
Awesome job guys! That's a HUGE & BEAUTIFUL GWS! For people saying it's a Thresher, you're either trolling for likes, trying to mess with people or just simply DUMB.
15+ easily. Also, the water color is from the GWS beached on the bottom. Kicking up mud.
You guys ROCK!
Is this a red tide occurance..ive seen it bfore its kills all the fish around mayb thats its problem
The net it was stuck in was the problem mate... initially the crew though it was dead and it was up side down not moving and second boat was brought in... probably should of died as it was stationary for some time give or take.....
@@Scrimroy gotcha thanx..have u ever seen a red tide?..pretty nasty
Silence is golden
Good job
I'm glad they saved this shark. It's good to see people helping our wildlife.
I😕have absolutely nothing to say I'm so really confused😕
Is the shark confirmed as a Great White....?
It does not look like a Great White. I have cage dived with them in Gainsbaai South Africa and that shark does not seem to have the body shape of a Great White....
The tail fin looks too high and the shark's girth not wide enough.....?
It's been confirmed , I will post he news coverage soon, cheers
7:58, that is most definitely a pointer.... the size and the white belly with the gray top. 15 footer.
awesome job lads
Good video
I'm not gonna lie there's like 5 things that are my greatest fears not being able to save my daughter in a life threatening situation, SHARKS , burning alive, spiders and werewolves. I know the last one is ridiculous. But I think that was awesome how they didn't just say "F××k It one less shark to worry about" so Major Props to the crazy was Tasmanians.
That's a grand sight
I luv aussies well done guys for the rescue
Man...that's a big fish ..
that is 100% great white so great job guys
Nice job fellas.
Could be! Dougi Douglas, through linage the black Douglas from scotland:-)
why is the water Red?
I think it's sediment from the shallow water the shark was stuck in.
It's an algal bloom, sometimes called red tide. It occurs in hot spells, and when water begin s to become anoxic (deoxygenated). Incredibly dangerous to marine life for two reasons: it physically suffocates them through coating the gills; and removes oxygen from the water.

That beauty will now trust humans, sadly.
Tanja Tanja because
Good job guys.
Well done Tassie fishing bogans.
I still think net fishing should be banned completely though
bill baggins
bill baggins net Fishing was my living ,comm. Fishing on a 55ft v- haul shrimp boat
well dont order the fish next time you go out for dinner
Jason John West uses pole and line bro
nothin like good old aussie banter
That was not a Great White they do not have the high tail fin. In a fresh water situation it was probably a tiger or a nurse shark.
incorrect. it is a great white.
The story can also be read about in the book “White Pointer
South” , By Chris Black,a book about Great White Sharks in Tasmania,Not tiger or nurse sharks...
Eric Buchannan it had a pointy head, so it was no tigershark .
Well done that a allot of flake you let go
hes hanging about he wants you to smooth him. for thanking you to free him
Gotta love those Aussies
I wouldn't be wadding around in the water like that
and that shark ate 3 surfers later that day
Do it like Charlie; don't surf.
It's a loan shark, with bad diarrhea.
Michael Collier. Ha! Looks like about the right amount of it as well. A brown tide.
Hehe you go!!!!!!! You go!!!! Push him out!!!!! No You!!!!! Give me a shove!!!
I always thought a study should be done on humans why if you move people from Britian to Australia do they talking like that? It's bizarre when you think about it.

lol that's pretty accurate actually
I couldn't understand a word they were saying.. LOL
That's because they're all drunk on Fosters beer ;)
no Tasmanians drink fosters beer . its terrible. south drink cascade and north drink boags . im from north boags is better . but that's what i grew up with
hamish grant Most Tasmanians drink Fosters, you buffoon.
Duhettard Yinnerbuttol . is that a fact billy the kid . well how long have you lived in Tasmania for ?
hamish grant Twenty-two years, Cindy the girl ;)
Now That’s A Fishin Story
well done guys
And in tonight's news - a shark rescued in 2015 off the coast of Tasmania attacked a surfer today ; :P
Hell no! I would not have my hand close to the mouth of that shark, nor would I be in the water either!!!
☈ thunder down under, great southern land,go AUSIE woohoooooo!!
Half an hour later that shark ate someone......but at least you saved the shark 😒 #killorbekilled
no shit prob came back and ate his kid
Don't be a fuck wit. Culling sharks is retarded. More people die crossing the road then get bit by sharks. Should we ban cars or crossing the road? No because that would be retarded.
Yes there Aussie, it is a Thresher.
Good Lord Grandma was slow but she was 105
He survived! Yay
I live in Tasmania who else does
Sharks love fairy bread!
iT IS DYING IT SHOULD BE MOVING TO BREATHE
Michelle Clough It swam right by them at the end. seemed to be ok.
Michelle Clough that's why they freed it???? now it's moving and can breathe 🤔
I don't know how I missed that footage
Actually....Firstly, thanks for the compliment. Lovely. There is another version of the footage where it does not show the shark swimming way, as an aside I am happy to see the musing of a non-judgmental person. Well done on your parents.
It was exhausted from struggling with the net. Literally needed to rest.
Good to see they saved it rather than kill it or leave it beached
Nice
Nice💞💞
sorry is it because I'm American I don't understand a word they are saying
Mike Gizas Americans don't understand anything as far as I can tell
