One thing I love about my husband is we both hate the ocean. As soon as ur toes hit the water ur at the bottom of the food chain. But it sure is beautiful to look at but it ends there.
Ray Tucker, the ocean is their home not ours, so when people are invading their home, then people need to realize that we are not at the top of the food chain.
@@fredachildress3728 I am at the top of the food chain simply because I know how to use deadly tools in the ocean and on land. I hunt for lobster, I kill the lobster with a spear gun, I hunt sharks, I kill the shark with my spear gun. I am at the top of the food chain no matter where I am. I hunt the polar bear every year, it is a huge bear, the largest of all bear species yet I can put the bear down and use the bears fur as a rug, I can also sell the pelt. I am at the top of the food chain, I am at home on sea or land. I feel sorry for people who are weak in any situation. The human species has the ability to engineer and develop tools that can be used to dominate any species of animal, reptile, fish, etc. people need to loosen their under garments and develop some courage.

I remember the story about the poor girl who was killed in the Bahamas. I believe there were three sharks. The only thing worse than being attacked by a shark is watching helplessly as your child is basically eaten in front of you. That poor mother. Her father and girlfriend were also there. My heart just breaks for all of them.
I know- I thought that story was fake when I first heard it, & then WISHED it WAS fake! As the mother of 2 teenage boys, I can only have nightmares about what HER mother & family & friend went through & saw with their own eyes.
How in the h-e-l-l is the first story about the model getting the equivalent to a love bite by a nurse shark considered one of the worst shark attacks in the world!!??!!
I was thinking the majority of these don't meet the threshold for the "worst shark attacks in the world". There are some wicked shark attacks, including Ben Kelly last year off the coast of California, that would be much more suited to the title.
I’ve been to the Bahamas, it’s fine you probably won’t get eaten by a shark but let me just tell you a little story, we lived in Florida for a few years, on the East Coast just south of Kennedy space Center, I had a window treatment made and the decorator offered me a ride in his friends helicopter up to Jacksonville and back, and the friend was the pilot for the local news channel, he flew the weather reporter around and they did surfing news. anyway so It was only about an hourish round-trip. I kept seeing all these gray blobs everywhere, just all over, near people, far away, just all over so finally I asked the pilot you know what are those, I’m from the Midwest what do I know.. so he looks over his shoulder and shrugged and said sharks, I don’t get in the ocean anymore. There were thousands of them…

When you watch all these attacks at once, its hard to believe the footage that Carlos Gauna routinely captures of super-chill Great Whites in Southern California using a Drone. His Drone footage shows these misunderstood creatures getting very close to people over & over, & never attacking. Seals & Sea Lions seem to be their preferred prey.
I I've been studying sharks for over 6 years and you can't trust them fully if they want to bite you they want to eat you that's what they'll do swimmer Surfer beware it's their backyard
@missy loves emeka No. Very few shark attacks are accidental or provoked. There are test bites to see if the object is edible; shark attacks are an intended meal. Either way, the shark bite, or attack, can end abruptly as the shark may not find the object tasty or edible. In either case, the object can be severely wounded or killed. So, are shark bites, or attacks accidental? No. The shark either intended on tasting the object first (via bite), or the shark intended on devouring the object no matter what (via attack). Do they misidentify the object when biting or attacking? Possibly, but not often.
P.S. Provoked attacks? A person would have to be seriously stupid to intentionally provoke an attack. But, I've heard a few stories on "Sharks Happen" where individuals purposely provoked sharks! Who in their "right" mind would do that?!? Ahem, there are plenty of idiots in this world that might do that 🤪
But where do we live? In the city?:)) I can’t live in the woods because the bear will eat me. Not in the jungle because the lion will eat me. Everywhere there are animals let’s go to Mars to live then
I'm half greek and have, therefore, spent quite some time on the Greek shore. I don't enjoy swimming, the sun and the sun, but as a child, it never crossed my mind there could be sharks out there. However, now with the internet and social media, there's plenty of sharks getting caught either on camera or in fishermen's nets very close to the shore. It's funny because what the Egyptian minister said, is the opposite of what the Greek and Italian goverments. So basically, just be worried every time you dip in waters that aren't in your tub.
Easier said than done some people are just stupid and think it is nothing to worry about if a person gets attacked and live they should see that as a warning to stay the he'll out of their territory
I lived in Hawaii for 20 years and have swam with a shark, I couldn’t help myself! I saw it swim under me so I followed it. It was a 4 foot long white tip reef shark and it was gorgeous the way it moved in the water 🤍 I have a deal with sharks though- I don’t eat things from the sea, so they can’t eat me. That’s how it works right?

On June 26th 2019 21-year-old Jordan Lindsey was on vacation with her family when she started screaming. She was being attacked by 3 tiger sharks when she reached the hospital she was pronounced dead.
I used to live on Long Island in a fishing town called Montauk. There were and are numerous shark sightings. Sharks in the Northeast of The United States are NOT NEW!!!! I can't imagine where that statement came from.My daughter lives in North Carolina. While she, her fiance, and a friend were lion their boat she went swimming off the side of the boat. Her fiance and friend started waving her in and screaming. They got her in and seconds later a shark hit the side of the boat. Thankfully, she was fine and the only received minimal damage.
I live in Oregon and we were at the coast at Newport Oregon and a pod of killer whales came in the Jedi on the bay front and attacked over 75 seal lions. It was unbelievable terrible to see. The whole bay was blood red.
About 15 years ago my wife and I dove with sharks in the Bahamas. It was amazing! I didn’t even go in a swimming pool for years after Jaws came out so it was a pretty big deal for me.
Honestly yes I would go diving in a cage even if the shark broke through it while I was in it. Like the diver I would just remain calm. Sharks very rarely attack people and when they do its usually due to mistaking them for seals. Honestly if I get attacked when being in THEIR territory then it's my fault. It makes me sad that sharks have been demonized so much. Although I pity those who have been attacked we shouldn't blame the victim OR the animal. They're just doing what they were made to do. We have to adapt to keep ourselves safe- not execute an entire species because of a few accidents.
I should also add even sharks attack people they commonly LET GO when they realize it isn't a seal. Sure shark attacks happen but from my understanding it is even less likely to die from actually being eaten by the shark. You're more likely to die from blood loss or infection.
When i was 15 my family went to south padre- swam out in the ocean alone in deep water- never even thought about sharks. While walking up to the beach I stepped on a jellyfish- ruined a few days of my vacation - pain was awful!
Compared to the amount of humans killed per year to how many sharks are killed is in the thousands. We’re more of a danger to them than they are to us. It’s their home and have more of a right to be there than us. Many of the water sport guys have so much respect for the fish and even when bitten they don’t blame the shark and campaign against shark culling and the use of nets which are known to be a hazard to the fish.
Sure nurse sharks are for the most part pretty docile, but if you ever make the mistake of being bit by one then watch out, they will not let go, there are plenty of stories where the nurse shark had to be surgically removed. I'm not kidding....
The amount of shark attacks that we've had for a good 18 months has been off the chart & off both sides of the country with WA & NSW an extremely bad hot spot
In Australia, a guy from England just got eaten by a shark as many watched but were unable to do anything to stop the attack. They said it was the first death since 1960's. People literally went into shock from what they witnessed.
I had a shark encounter swimming in 30ft water in the ocean Beach area of Clearwater Beach. There were 3 swimming underneath me. I quickly swam back to shore and never returned to the water. Never again will I swim in the ocean.
Those facts are wrong for the Eastern United States. We have a seal population. Once the seal became protected from being hunted and the population became bigger, more whites showed up. Whites have always been here. Also with the restrictions on waste in the harbors and bays the whites states coming in closer. We also just found out that from south jersey to almost Maine is popping grounds for the great whites. We have a great white nursery. It's always been there. Just wasn't healthy with over fishing noise and pollution. Now with laws and regulation the overall sea life has rebounded. I would not be surprised if a pod of orcas show up next. Usually after a while with seals and sharks and other types of fish, orcas will eventually show up. The orcas on the west coast finally had babies, all thanks to covid 19. Which was bad for humans. With the shut down all over the world. The oceans finally had quiet and less traffic and more food. So the pods fattened up and did what orcas do and now have q few babies. SO with that in mind we humans need to do things better for the animals when animals are doing good so do humans. All wild life bounced back or did better with the shut down. SO scientists and government need to look at the facts and do something different. If we don't we will lose our wildlife both on land and in the oceans, even the honey bees did better. Those honey bees die so does every living being on this planet. Well except cockroaches. Those thing will Live through any thing. Yucky bugs. I know they are needed but still yucky disease caring bugs. So gross,
I feel for the lady pulled under by nurse sharks. People jump to judge regardless of their lack of knowledge in the actual event. When I was in my early 20’s my then boyfriend now husband and I went to Punta Cana. Both of ours very first legit vacation. We went parasailing with only the 2 of us and the staff on the boat. I went first, alcohol fueled bravery lol, and absolutely loved being so high in the sky and was interestingly watching a small school of large fish. Thinking omg are those sharks!! That’s when the motor on the boat died and I started falling down into the Caribbean now terrified as I was in shark territory. The last thing I heard before plunging into the water was a mans voice with a strong Dominican accent yell Hey lady Hope you can swim! Thought I was going to die! A minute later the engines started and I was climbing back into the clouds. Found out after that my idiot now husband had plotted it out with the guys on the boat because I would love it, they would laugh their asses off and they’re only nurse sharks….
Every time you go into the ocean you need to understand that you are swimming with sharks. The ocean is their home not ours and with over 500 shark species in our oceans, they are everywhere. You need to remain alert of the area you are in. For example, if there are seals in the water, the preferred food of larger sharks, get out of the water. Don’t go in the water at dawn or dusk, the preferred hunting times of sharks but remember sharks are opportunistic hunters and Hammerheads, Mako, and Great White Sharks are always swimming. Avoid wearing yellow, white, or even bathing suits with contrasting colors, like black and white. Don’t wear bright colored nail polish. Be wary of sand bars and any place rivers empty into the sea. If fishing is happening where you are, don’t go in the water. If someone on the beach is flying a drone over the water, go talk to them. Have they seen any larger sharks in the area? Respond accordingly. If you are on your period, stay out of the water even if using a tampon. If you become aware a shark is circling you, try to maintain eye contact with the shark. Sharks prefer to engage in surprise attacks. Even if you stay in groups, even when you remain alert, an attack can happen. If possible fight for all you can. Hit the shark’s nose, try to gouge the shark’s eyes…FIGHT. Again when you go in the ocean, you are in the sharks’ home, you are swimming with sharks.
To me it just seems like since they started feeding sharks at the bottom of the ocean floor and chumming to let people in cages see sharks they are training sharks to associate people and boats with food what does anyone think about this ?
I remember having to cover my sisters eyes when we were on holiday in Florida and the shark ate a seagull in front of us and my mum and dad were getting ice cream and it was horrible I quickly covered my sisters eye and I’m still tromatised
I am fortunate to of been diving with great white sharks in Australia in open waters not cage diving or chum baiting. they were beautiful calm animals and I am in awe at these magical predators.
I went to Hawaii and was in the water 6ft deep on a blow up float lounger. The long ones that you lay on, anyway I had my period to but using a Tampax. I was out in that water for 3.5 hours and never thought about sharks.
How about using Shark repellents. Or Electronic gadgets that send out frequencies that keep sharks away. Diving with a steal shark proof suit. Or diving with a knife or a spear maybe a spear is better because it has more reach and you don't have to stab it necessarily you can block his bite with it. Once a huge tiger shark circled my surfboard 4 or 5 times in Florida about 18 years ago when I was 12. But I was able to get away as soon as it went 3 or 4 meters away i paddled quickly to the shore. After that I didn't go in the water for a year and the whole next summer I brought a diving knife with me I was terrified for a couple of years.
So sad...my heart will always break for the mother who faught so hard to save her daughter..and to her and family who had to watch her die such a horrifying death...and for Jordan...it's all around a horrible story 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
She was left with a nasty scar on her wrist, is that all considering the size of these things and the power, ... He went gentle on her, Be blessed that scar tells a brave story 🙌🏼🦈💯
Hell no I would never go cafe diving with a White Pointer that’s crazy but I bet it could be a very amazing experience to be so close to something that is so much bigger then you and could end your life so very easily
I have been in a cage that got attacked by a great white. The shark broke the bars and attempted to grab the river with me. The shark got his arm but only ripped the tissue after the cage was brought up the people on the boat asked if I wanted to go again. I was 13 and very much said no.
The first story is not correct. She was not snorkelling, she went in the water specifically for a photo for Instagram, against the advice of the local authority
Worst shark attacks? What a crock of shiat. Not even close to the worst attacks. Watch an episode of shark week and learn of the Australian surfer that was eaten whole by a great white right infront of his friends and family and a week later his shorts and keys washed up on shore. Theres many many stories like this.
even gentle animals can get spooked or aggressive. my friend has a lobo wolf and I tripped and he went off i screamed no and his name and he calmed down but I trust him less today.
I have gone snorkeling in 20 feet of water in key west , saw a 4 for nurse shark near the same on the bottom. I stayed in the surface giving it space, cool to see.
I am probably in the minority, but I have MORE respect for people who have just recovered from a shark attack that say they DO NOT want to jump back in the water again. Everyone is like: “Look at me, I’m RIGHT BACK IN the water & my stitches haven’t even healed yet!” Sometimes I think it is wise to at LEAST have a healthy respect & a touch of fear for the ocean & it’s apex predators!! (Yes, thank you, internet, for also giving me a strong fear of Orcas, too!)🙂🙂🐢
Watch the channel Sharks Happen,..a woman getting her legs bitten off then her head on second bite by large great while swimming in relative shallow water while her husband watches is a much worse attack then any on this list,plus dozens more where victims where consumed after attack
Obviously the nurse shark is more scared of the swimmer than the swimmer oc the shark. Thats y it held h er underwater & slashed her up & she got 0% damage on the harmless shark
Im older and smarter now use to go to Jersey shore alot before it was cool on MTV and i use to go in tbe ocean i realize now that im older im not fish food yall can be fish food have fun
Never enter the water near a pier, especially fishing pier, a jetty and a sandbar. Sharks are known to swim near and around these structures. Also never swim in early morning or at dusk or at night as this is when they feed. The eyes, gills and nose are best strike areas if bitten. Keep in mind bulls frequent areas where salt and fresh water converge as they pup near these areas.
Stop saying that attacks are rare. They are a common occurrence. Marine Biologists water down fatality percentages by adding ALL sharks among the three major man-eaters Great White, Tiger, and Bull. You don't get fatality percentages by adding house cats to lion attacks on humans so why would you do it with sharks?
I would definitely go cage shark diving. The chances of this happening are so low that I would take the chance. This is actually my dream to have great whites swimming all around me. They are so beautiful and majestic and we need them in our oceans.
Not sure why this was ranked so low! Jordan Lindsey was attacked by three tiger sharks at Rose Island. I had heard that Tigers are known by locals to be at the island site. God Bless her family in their grief.

When i was 15 my family went to south padre- swam out in the ocean alone in deep water- never even thought about sharks. While walking up to the beach I stepped on a jellyfish- ruined a few days of my vacation - pain was awful!
Compared to the amount of humans killed per year to how many sharks are killed is in the thousands. We’re more of a danger to them than they are to us. It’s their home and have more of a right to be there than us. Many of the water sport guys have so much respect for the fish and even when bitten they don’t blame the shark and campaign against shark culling and the use of nets which are known to be a hazard to the fish.
The next time I hear some dummy say any species of shark is harmless I'm gonna scream
The fatal great white attack in Maine should have made it into the list. That one should have been at least in the top 3.
Sure nurse sharks are for the most part pretty docile, but if you ever make the mistake of being bit by one then watch out, they will not let go, there are plenty of stories where the nurse shark had to be surgically removed.
I'm not kidding....
The amount of shark attacks that we've had for a good 18 months has been off the chart & off both sides of the country with WA & NSW an extremely bad hot spot
And?
And South Australia
In Australia, a guy from England just got eaten by a shark as many watched but were unable to do anything to stop the attack. They said it was the first death since 1960's. People literally went into shock from what they witnessed.
People won’t learn to stay out of a sharks house🤣🤪
i think cling film might be a must have item in a shark attack first aid kit.
Totally harmless my butt smdh. It doesn't matter what shark 🦈 it is. I ain't gonna swim even if it's the nicest shark in the world 🌍
I had a shark encounter swimming in 30ft water in the ocean Beach area of Clearwater Beach. There were 3 swimming underneath me. I quickly swam back to shore and never returned to the water. Never again will I swim in the ocean.
how can a few stitches from a nurse shark possibly be 1 'Of The WORST Shark Attacks!' ??
I would never cage dive/be party to chumming. I believe this is very wrong in several ways.
You can't blame the sharks.its in their nature.i have lived in Florida most of my life and keep my eyes open if at the beach
I’ll take my chances stayin on dry land
Yup, the world is not your oyster. You are the oyster.
OK the shark itself would have to say yeah I can’t bite through that, for me to trust some guy with the boat and a cage..
Those facts are wrong for the Eastern United States. We have a seal population. Once the seal became protected from being hunted and the population became bigger, more whites showed up. Whites have always been here. Also with the restrictions on waste in the harbors and bays the whites states coming in closer. We also just found out that from south jersey to almost Maine is popping grounds for the great whites. We have a great white nursery. It's always been there. Just wasn't healthy with over fishing noise and pollution. Now with laws and regulation the overall sea life has rebounded. I would not be surprised if a pod of orcas show up next. Usually after a while with seals and sharks and other types of fish, orcas will eventually show up. The orcas on the west coast finally had babies, all thanks to covid 19. Which was bad for humans. With the shut down all over the world. The oceans finally had quiet and less traffic and more food. So the pods fattened up and did what orcas do and now have q few babies. SO with that in mind we humans need to do things better for the animals when animals are doing good so do humans. All wild life bounced back or did better with the shut down. SO scientists and government need to look at the facts and do something different. If we don't we will lose our wildlife both on land and in the oceans, even the honey bees did better. Those honey bees die so does every living being on this planet. Well except cockroaches. Those thing will Live through any thing. Yucky bugs. I know they are needed but still yucky disease caring bugs. So gross,
I would swim with sharks but first I'm going to learn how to juggle chainsaws. Lol
Hal from Sharks Happen would chuckle at this title :D.
I feel for the lady pulled under by nurse sharks. People jump to judge regardless of their lack of knowledge in the actual event. When I was in my early 20’s my then boyfriend now husband and I went to Punta Cana. Both of ours very first legit vacation. We went parasailing with only the 2 of us and the staff on the boat. I went first, alcohol fueled bravery lol, and absolutely loved being so high in the sky and was interestingly watching a small school of large fish. Thinking omg are those sharks!! That’s when the motor on the boat died and I started falling down into the Caribbean now terrified as I was in shark territory. The last thing I heard before plunging into the water was a mans voice with a strong Dominican accent yell Hey lady Hope you can swim! Thought I was going to die! A minute later the engines started and I was climbing back into the clouds. Found out after that my idiot now husband had plotted it out with the guys on the boat because I would love it, they would laugh their asses off and they’re only nurse sharks….
Brilliant sense of humour, it's no wonder you married him. 🤣.
Every time you go into the ocean you need to understand that you are swimming with sharks. The ocean is their home not ours and with over 500 shark species in our oceans, they are everywhere.
You need to remain alert of the area you are in. For example, if there are seals in the water, the preferred food of larger sharks, get out of the water.
Don’t go in the water at dawn or dusk, the preferred hunting times of sharks but remember sharks are opportunistic hunters and Hammerheads, Mako, and Great White Sharks are always swimming.
Avoid wearing yellow, white, or even bathing suits with contrasting colors, like black and white. Don’t wear bright colored nail polish.
Be wary of sand bars and any place rivers empty into the sea. If fishing is happening where you are, don’t go in the water.
If someone on the beach is flying a drone over the water, go talk to them. Have they seen any larger sharks in the area? Respond accordingly.
If you are on your period, stay out of the water even if using a tampon.
If you become aware a shark is circling you, try to maintain eye contact with the shark. Sharks prefer to engage in surprise attacks.
Even if you stay in groups, even when you remain alert, an attack can happen. If possible fight for all you can. Hit the shark’s nose, try to gouge the shark’s eyes…FIGHT.
Again when you go in the ocean, you are in the sharks’ home, you are swimming with sharks.
It is so sad to see all of these people get hurt by sharks.
To me it just seems like since they started feeding sharks at the bottom of the ocean floor and chumming to let people in cages see sharks they are training sharks to associate people and boats with food what does anyone think about this ?
Yes, I would love to do the cage dive! I’m intrigued by sharks, and collect shark teeth on the shore of Myrtle Beach, SC 🦈
Just foolish people, not the sharks, not the doctors, not anyone but the people who volunteered to put themselves in harms way
I remember having to cover my sisters eyes when we were on holiday in Florida and the shark ate a seagull in front of us and my mum and dad were getting ice cream and it was horrible I quickly covered my sisters eye and I’m still tromatised
I am fortunate to of been diving with great white sharks in Australia in open waters not cage diving or chum baiting. they were beautiful calm animals and I am in awe at these magical predators.
That must have been a very vivid dream,was Tom Cruise with you?
Wow. It would’ve been so cool! I wish I had the guts to do that
Did you see the video footage of an Australian man killed in Sydney a month ago??? You might feel differently....
I went to Hawaii and was in the water 6ft deep on a blow up float lounger. The long ones that you lay on, anyway I had my period to but using a Tampax. I was out in that water for 3.5 hours and never thought about sharks.
How about using Shark repellents. Or Electronic gadgets that send out frequencies that keep sharks away. Diving with a steal shark proof suit. Or diving with a knife or a spear maybe a spear is better because it has more reach and you don't have to stab it necessarily you can block his bite with it. Once a huge tiger shark circled my surfboard 4 or 5 times in Florida about 18 years ago when I was 12. But I was able to get away as soon as it went 3 or 4 meters away i paddled quickly to the shore. After that I didn't go in the water for a year and the whole next summer I brought a diving knife with me I was terrified for a couple of years.
Why? The ocean is their territory.
I heard about the 2nd story. May she Rest In Peace
So sad...my heart will always break for the mother who faught so hard to save her daughter..and to her and family who had to watch her die such a horrifying death...and for Jordan...it's all around a horrible story 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
If I could afford it I would absolutely swim with nurse sharks or cage dive.
Darwin Awards are cheap!!! It's not too late or expensive to compete for one.☠️☠️☠️🦈
@@silversurfer3202 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Too late. I already passed on my genes. 🤣
@@victoriawilliams2786 👌😝🤪🤪!!!
I have seen a nurse shark while snorkeling in key west but don't think I would do cage diving
Swimming with nervous sharks is also cool cause they’re more scared of you
She was left with a nasty scar on her wrist, is that all considering the size of these things and the power, ... He went gentle on her, Be blessed that scar tells a brave story 🙌🏼🦈💯
Hell no I would never go cafe diving with a White Pointer that’s crazy but I bet it could be a very amazing experience to be so close to something that is so much bigger then you and could end your life so very easily
I have been in a cage that got attacked by a great white. The shark broke the bars and attempted to grab the river with me. The shark got his arm but only ripped the tissue after the cage was brought up the people on the boat asked if I wanted to go again. I was 13 and very much said no.
The first story is not correct. She was not snorkelling, she went in the water specifically for a photo for Instagram, against the advice of the local authority
Your All Looking At A FastFood Joint For Sharks 🦈 " Get in The Water Means Sharkys Food is Ready " Dont Becum A SharkTerd "" Stay Outta The Water "
Worst shark attacks? What a crock of shiat. Not even close to the worst attacks. Watch an episode of shark week and learn of the Australian surfer that was eaten whole by a great white right infront of his friends and family and a week later his shorts and keys washed up on shore. Theres many many stories like this.
even gentle animals can get spooked or aggressive. my friend has a lobo wolf and I tripped and he went off i screamed no and his name and he calmed down but I trust him less today.
I have gone snorkeling in 20 feet of water in key west , saw a 4 for nurse shark near the same on the bottom. I stayed in the surface giving it space, cool to see.
Key west also has lemon sharks and hammerheads in deeper water off the dock.
I would go cage diving if the bars were concrete and titanium
Harmless shark bites & viscerally attacks swimmer.
Super harmless shark
I am probably in the minority, but I have MORE respect for people who have just recovered from a shark attack that say they DO NOT want to jump back in the water again. Everyone is like: “Look at me, I’m RIGHT BACK IN the water & my stitches haven’t even healed yet!”
Sometimes I think it is wise to at LEAST have a healthy respect & a touch of fear for the ocean & it’s apex predators!!
(Yes, thank you, internet, for also giving me a strong fear of Orcas, too!)🙂🙂🐢
I think it’s so sad when people die because nobody thought to put a tourniquet on the wound to stop the bleeding.
"worst shark attacks" was expecting all of the victims to die rather than half of them surviving
Watch the channel Sharks Happen,..a woman getting her legs bitten off then her head on second bite by large great while swimming in relative shallow water while her husband watches is a much worse attack then any on this list,plus dozens more where victims where consumed after attack
@@frankbasile3662 I've watched every ep I love sharks happen!!!!!
I don't even like perch biting me :(
Nurse sharks are NOT HARMLESS😊
I bet those sharks in the Bahamas that come to the beach with the swimming Pigs will occasionally "snack" on a 🐷 or two🐖🐗 when hungry....
Obviously the nurse shark is more scared of the swimmer than the swimmer oc the shark. Thats y it held h er underwater & slashed her up & she got 0% damage on the harmless shark
well that destroyed my confidence to go into the sea!
The story about Jordan is ridiculous. The boat should of had at LEAST a first aid kit. I think this could have ended better.
💖🌷💖🌷Love the video !
I believe the man Simon from Sydney is the most horrific shark attack(Feb 2022)near little bay NSW I've seen to this date, very horrific
10 of the worst? Nursing shark attack model has a scar on wrist. Wow!
Im older and smarter now use to go to Jersey shore alot before it was cool on MTV and i use to go in tbe ocean i realize now that im older im not fish food yall can be fish food have fun
Hell no I don't temp fate. Sharks are unpredictable, and very strong.pools work for me .
The one who was having a baby is so sad😢
Was that first 'shark attack' even a attack....?
Never enter the water near a pier, especially fishing pier, a jetty and a sandbar. Sharks are known to swim near and around these structures. Also never swim in early morning or at dusk or at night as this is when they feed. The eyes, gills and nose are best strike areas if bitten. Keep in mind bulls frequent areas where salt and fresh water converge as they pup near these areas.
Stop saying that attacks are rare. They are a common occurrence. Marine Biologists water down fatality percentages by adding ALL sharks among the three major man-eaters Great White, Tiger, and Bull. You don't get fatality percentages by adding house cats to lion attacks on humans so why would you do it with sharks?
After an incident in Hawaii on a deep water swim, never have gone back in the ocean past my ankles.
I’m good!
Never! Never! Never! I will never go cage diving! I don’t even go in the water!
How many sharks humans kill?
I would definitely go cage shark diving. The chances of this happening are so low that I would take the chance. This is actually my dream to have great whites swimming all around me. They are so beautiful and majestic and we need them in our oceans.
You obviously haven't seen the video of the Australian man taken by a great White while swimming in Sydney last month
No one is BLAMING the SHARKS.. hopefully people know that SHARKS DONT NICE when YOU play in their yard...
Swim in the sea at your own risk, if you’re attacked it’s no one fault but yours
Mr. Cat Sharks should observe politeness rules especially when the swimmer has a bang stick .
Not sure why this was ranked so low! Jordan Lindsey was attacked by three tiger sharks at Rose Island. I had heard that Tigers are known by locals to be at the island site. God Bless her family in their grief.
Sadly the sharks are generally mistaking humans or simply investigating the way they know how- biting
It sounds like the two GW, we’re hunting in pairs.
I would go in a shark cage, only if they did not feed the sharks while in the cage!
OCEANS RAMSEY is complicit in her horrible misguidance 1
