I don't understand some people, why do you go to swim in places where you do know there are sharks ?

[@Geethreeohm]

Maybe didn't understand the risks . When I was going to South Australia and New South Wales I was told by the people we knew there uch sharks are there but they don't bother you and stay out your way . Then I went home and checked the shark watch thing on FB and saw the spot I was snorkeling in Adelaide is known for white pointers even saw a sealion swimming parallel to the beach about 15m out and thought nothing of it until I got home and realised they only swim that close to people when there's predators about .

Idk the ocean is a beautiful place and it’s not worth it to me to just never go in it because there’s a tiny chance a shark will attack me. I’ll take my chances, though if there are areas with lots of reports of attacks I’ll obviously avoid that area because there’s most likely some human activity attracting them there (fishing, etc). But being around sharks doesn’t mean you’re for sure gonna be attacked

In 1979 I was diving in 90 ft north of Port of Palm Beach,on the Shark killer 3..it was about 40ft visibility, and I was partnered up with John Israel..All of a sudden John bangs me on the shoulder.I turn,and there is a female tiger shark,20 feet long,if she is 1 inch. Her coffee saucer sized black eye was following me as I melted into the coral reef,realizing how much I looked like a seal ,in my wet suit.The scariest minute of my life,as she turned to follow the other divers,now out of sight. There are huge animals out there..dont think there aren't.

It's a heart wrenching story to have that happen to your daughter right in front of you and to hear her screaming for help, the sh*theads from the tour group were absolutely NO help at all. The family is quiet, but I am not sure if a lawsuit is going to happen, or has started to happen, or if they just want to let it go and live in peace.

Port St John's second Beach is named the world's deadliest Beach due to the amount of "fatal" great white attacks. It's a very beautiful beach and popular tourist spot, but when that shark flag is up at certain times of the year, you best stay out of that water. I always used to think Hout Bay, or Gansbai AKA Dungeons surf spot were the most dangerous beaches in South Africa, or the beaches in false Bay because of their close proximity to shark alley. But no, Port St John's Second Beach on the Eastern Cape has earned its title.

The poor Brits were at a severe disadvantage. They fought their shark before Jaws had been made. They didn't know the shark was a relentless killer, perfectly happy exploding as long as it took as many people to hell with it. That's why the official SOP is to put the explosives in the shark's mouth and detonate it with a rifle from a safe distance while saying, "Smile you son of a bitch." Those poor guys never had a chance.

Cookie cutter sharks are super rare & generally live very deep. I know a few fisherman that have caught them whilst jigging for squid, always at night & they will attack hooked fish that go deep, fairly regularly, but are rarely ever seen or caught.🦈

I agree the kayaker who lost his foot in Hawaii was bitten by a Tiger Shark. They often make meals of large sea turtles and can bite right through their shells. I know of no other shark can do this. The bite through bone appears to be a classic attack by a Tiger Shark.

Thanks for the additional info. Have never dived so i know very little about it.

[@TheScaryTruthCatalyst]

That first story, thankfully it was a happy ending. Anything involving kids....🤦‍♂️

[@Shadowking8]

Always wondered about this case and what the unfortunate young lady had done differently that she was attacked. One thing cleared up, the news I read had her in the water alone and all of her family on shore, and that she was never recovered. Media needs to be fact checked for everything. Her poor mom and what she had to endure.

[@lydiamcpherson7925]

@Joel Bailey, the father and brother were on the beach, I believe. I always heard the mom was with her.

Found you by accident, sent it to several friends. I've been fascinated and at the same time afraid of sharks from an early age. A boy was attacked In Sarasota Co Florida in 1958, heard it on the radio where we were staying in Englewood Florida on the beach. The boy probably 8 or 9 was in knee deep water when a tiger shark (always figured a bull shark) grabbed him. His older brother, old enough to drive pulled his brother and the shark on shore. Then got an M1 CARBINE from his pick up and shot the shark. That's all I recall as a kid his age at that time. I did a lot if research and finally found the incident recorded he lost his leg, and the other brother had bites on his hands. The shark a 7 foot tiger in very shallow water. Interesting enough my brother in college met a guy with one leg diving in the University pool and could have been on their dive team, part of the school athletics. My brother thought for years the attack on thus guy happened in Miami. (He may have lived there) but was unable to find any record. Well that kid we heard about on the radio in 1958 was in fact this young man. My brother knew his name and it was the same I found in my research. What are the chances huh.

[@SharksHappen]

That sounds similar to one i have. They dragged the shark to shore and retrieved the leg. Might be the same story

[@5Heth]

Another awesome video 👍 I didn't even know that pigs could swim. 'What were you thinking' was the funniest one yet. It's like the shark knew it was gonna blow up & figured it would take the humans with it 🤣😂🤣😂 Karma's a bitch

[@hauzu4616]

Yes I remember that incident happened in Maui 2014 or 2015 a freestyle swimmer got biten on his or her Right Leg. It was about 6pm (evening time) the attack happened. Even that snorkler in Maui,Tiger shark took her whole arm off.

[@johnhammond9962]

These tigers are bullies. Ganging up on that poor girl.

[@SharksHappen]

Yes. I think they were smaller, under 10 feet. Dont hear about them teamin up much at all.

[@johnhammond9962]

I would think they would go after the piggys, they were more bite sized and tasty

[@traceythomson8572]

@@johnhammond9962 thats what i was thinking and they are tastier.

[@luciad5988]

@@SharksHappen I saw a video suggesting the surfer who got charges by 2 colliding sharks at once had peed in his wetsuit. Apparently that is common among them and may attract sharks. Could the college girl have peed in the water and attracted a few sharks? She didn’t stand a chance 😥

[@freshimpactco.8698]

I wonder why sharks will pick out an individual and will repeatedly attack them leaving anyone around them untouched???? So really bizarre....

[@SharksHappen]

It is strange. One coming up where the friend stepped between the shark and his buddy it just bit and the shark backed down.

[@SharksHappen]

I just think their intelligence id greater than ever assumed

[@freshimpactco.8698]

@@SharksHappen I completely agree, they seem to be incredibly intelligent. I often wonder while hearing your stories if there is some kind of electrical signature we give off sometimes that entices them to either attack, become very curious about the person or something like that. I heard they have an organ known as ampullae or something. Do you think this might be not a case of mistaken identity but rather an electrical signature close to usual prey they are hunting? Is it also possible that when we ourselves are sick we may also produce a signal that may entice a shark to become curious, attack or predate? I know of countless predators who are able to select weak members of a herd or group, I wonder if the sharks adaptation with their ampullae organ can operate in a similar way? Really curious about your thoughts? Loving your show by the way, it is really enjoyable listening to your stories and love how you deliver them to your audience, I am now a subscriber 😊👍🏻

[@dougieroberts7045]

Hahahhaha, shark attacks off the coast of the U.K, ......this is the stuff that myths are made of. Only sharks in the U.K are the politicians , judges and legal people. Love these videos, great presentation, some great stories, keep up the good work.

[@SharksHappen]

Most were little dogfish. Even this is probably a porbeagle bein in those waters. Went thru some of the attacks. Mostly loss of toes from small sharks

[@catsnads01]

Nah. There's a documented history of attacks in UK waters, including at least one fatal

[@alexjones28]

It's not Bethune Beach it's Daytona Beach Florida this is where I'm from love the channel by the way

[@johnshields6852]

Ad far as mistaken for fish or seal, if your in the ocean they'll eat whatever they want, I think their instinctually geared to eat period, they have their usual menu but will gladly eat any meat they can find, luckily were not a regular menu item, I think humans are just like ordering a new dish you never tried, not often, but if the sharks hungry or pissed, your in big trouble. Good luck to all, I love the ocean but since I saw jaws in 1975 I look around more.

[@SharksHappen]

Yes. It is a combination of factors that will probably never be fully understood. Pissed shark stands out tho. Territorial attacks are crazy cuz they are violent bit not for eating purposes. They want whatever out of their area

[@elizabethwoolnough4358]

I've often wondered if sharks don't like people fishing - perhaps 'stealing their food'.

[@SammyandMonica]

Hey can you do the one that happened in Santa Cruz, CA in May of 2020. Thanks we really like the show!

[@kleague41]

Hi, Hal. Hope you had a good Thanksgiving! Great show today! I didn't think GW's were in Mediterranean waters. People around Cornwall say they don't have GW's in their waters, but there is a guy on KZbin that's trying to find proof that they're there. I just can't remember his name. If he posts again, I'll let you know. They think it's mistaken identity for Porbeagles. I'm surprised the tigers went for the poor little girl instead of the pigs!! Are GW's in all waters now?

[@saraw6446]

I watch him but can't remember his name, (Island something) but enjoyed it. I grew up in Croatia & was told there were Great Whites but still swam in the sea, across the Adriatic from where the Italian guy was attacked, maybe not if I knew this! My grandmother witnessed a shark attack & I wonder if Hal finds this, but yes there's GWs in the Mediterranean 🦈👍

[@SharksHappen]

I have at least 10 Great White attacks in the med, maybe twice that, But am aware or ten of them. I wasn't aware there was that kind of population in those waters.

[@saraw6446]

@@SharksHappenIt was a young guy & he was further out & waving to his friend' then attacked, I wish I remember more but think his leg bitten and died. She's no longer with us so can't check - hope you find it

No way will I fish in the ocean, diving, to include surfing or kayaking. I will remain on land thank you very much!!! 🦈🦈🦈

I had to laugh at the shark coming back under the boat and blowing them up with it...

[@lucynuzzello7154]

That's exactly what they said of how they feed these sharks and they work for these tour companies!!!!! More than sad it's total negligence,. U Tubers have a lot of power these days please keep putting out the difficult stories to tell but please warn before hand if it's the death of a child ..... God Bless 🙌

[@Salty-cracker68]

Those little fish that sucks onto the bottom of the shark are the only safe fish in the ocean. They’re like the little guy who holds the pocket of the big guy in prison

[@SharksHappen]

They are remora. Remora cannot survive in still waters such as lakes. Most lake nicaragua bull shark pics have remora sticking to the shark… isnt in the lake

[@elliotjoseph6093]

There's stories of US Navy submarines with cookiecutter shark taking bites on the radar and bites on internet cables in the Atlantic Ocean.

Always remember if you go in the water that you are no more than a mid - level link in somebody else’s food chain.

[@eiscremekaiser]

Why is this video without subtitle? Last video's from you was with subtitle... That was easyer for me to understand because I am from germany.

[@SharksHappen]

I do not know. I do not do subtitles, so it might be done by KZbin and take a while to get them in.

[@eiscremekaiser]

@@SharksHappen Oh ok, thanks for answer me Hal, your channel is fantastic!;)
