Hammerhead Shark Attacks Kayak Fisherman!!!

A large hammerhead shark took I liking to my friends kayak while we were offshore fishing. The huge shark even bit the back and side of his kayak and had to be beaten off, sadly I did not get this on camera. The shark eventually had enough of getting smacked with a paddle and took off.
ENJOY!

[@luciferarise4973]

is it just me or does fishing in a small kayak out in the middle of the ocean seem like a bad idea

[@TimothyQuintana]

Do it at least 4-5 times a week. Never encountered a shark doing this. Ive caught plenty of them but I always release. The kayaks are anywhere from 10-15ft. Never had a problem, scarier when you flip your kayak in rough water than swimming with sharks (which I have)

[@Dauserofdasite]

Baroque Bastard No it is fine, I heard that the trick to it is to tie a couple of steaks to the side of the boat and have plenty of chum so you can occasionally spill some out into the water while you take a break from paddling. You should try it some time :D

lol been there and didn't see any sharks , use to do it for months on the piss lol . Not that place tho in New Zealand and there are sharks out there for sure . Its awesome fun tho paddling out and about . I guess its luck of the draw . I went sea kayaking in the same waters we saw a great white shark sailing lol . The thing was 30 feet long and it didn't even cross my mind that day . Esp after this strong wind flipped us upside in the kayak , about an hour into that kayak with others , one of the people kayaking , sent their kayak through the side of another kayak lol . Then we spent about 4 or more hours climbing this mountain afterwards lol . It was one brutal day , so worth it tho once we reached the top . Shit I will never forget . Now I look back on that shit yes its fcking insane lol . We had to row in this cutter sailing ship when the wind died , it fcking sucked so much . Was amazing under the stars at night , we could see the milky way and heaps of shooting stars . Made me feel like a true viking lol . I have viking blood but Im not no viking that's for sure

[@mikea2684]

That shark isn't a threat to you. There have been like 40 something reported cases of a hammerhead shark attacking a human and only like 15 of those were reported as being unprovoked. Hammerheads don't give a fuck about humans until you act aggressive towards them first and poke at them with paddles and shit or if you happen upon a very large shark that is starving to death. While they should be respected if encountered, and I probably wouldn't jump in and try to swim with them, i wouldn't call them a threat.

[@michaelshannonjjj]

+Michael Angelikis Not a threat? Really?

[@yashmaval]

+Michael Shannon Yes. He is right. Not a threat. Scuba divers know better than anyone that sharks are in general not as aggressive as hollywood likes to show. I also agree with Les. The shark did nothing. The kayakers attacked the shark. Check out the number of shark attacks on earth per year, while millions of people scuba dive every year.

[@PlugMartian]

I saw nothing in this video that even remotely resembles an attack. What I do see is Sphyrna Lewini doing exactly what any oceanic predator does. Investigating something floating on the surface. Being an ocean fisherman you should know one of the best ways to catch Billfish, Sharks, Tuna, Ling, and Dorado is to troll or chunk around large floating objects. Because the predators know that the object either IS food, or is hiding it. As others here have mentioned one of the ways sharks "test for food" is to bite something. This shark bumped, rubbed and bit your kayaks, decided they were not food and left. You treated the shark exactly as you should have by poking and hitting it with your paddles. Not only were you not food but you could potentially injure it. Not worth it for the shark and so it left. Not an attack, just normal shark behavior.

I'm almost certain a drift sock would make me drift faster considering I am fighting up to a 3 knot ocean current, not wind. I think the drift sock would enhance the currents effect on the kayak. Keep in mind we are fishing in 200 - 600 feet of water usually, and quite close to the Gulf Stream. Closer to shore or farther from the swift currents I would swear by the drift sock for battling a big fish.

[@MsTigerseye77]

Holy crap! You weren't even scared. I would have been too afraid to hold the camera!

[@GlobalTubeTruth]

What the shark is doing is fishing. It has no interest in the guy on the kayak, unless of course he ended up in the water. The shark is just waiting to pick off a hooked fish that is unable to escape. It's simply looking for an easy meal, which in a technical sense, makes it semi-domesticated. They are not hunting naturally as they have done for millions of years. They are using people fishing on boats as a tool for an easy meal. Imagine if he was in an inflatable kayak. He would have been lunch!! This is a scary video to watch.

[@tango74n90]

Doubtful, sharks are extremely dumb creatures that rely almost exclusively on instincts to hunt. They have next to no ability to understand the dynamics of the world around them. It's why they never went extinct; they are instinctive killer machine. Action-reaction is the only thing they are good at. My bet is that like most sharks, he was detecting movement at the surface and they identify that behaviour as a sign of weakness (injured fishes or requiring to breath). Source: Shark brain dissections and animal behaviour classes

[@GlobalTubeTruth]

KlioSeth Interesting theory, but I disagree 100%. Sharks are not dumb creatures at all. You must be a white man, because only people with European descent have such little respect for the intellect of the animal kingdom. What we're seeing in these videos is not an instinctual response. It's a learned behavior, which became part of their hunting technique. They know how to identify the fishing boats because of all the bait in the water. The bait is too small for the sharks interest, but the fish that come to take the bait fall right into the sharks trap, and if the fish get hooked, it just makes it that much easier for the shark to capture they prey because the prey can't escape. Get it?? it's time to start using your brain a little more, rather than assuming everything in the world around you is stupid, and acting on instinct. In fact, check yourself. Perhaps you were responding instinctually, and have no ability to understand the dynamics of the world around you. Something tells me that is a much more likely scenario.

[@tango74n90]

GlobalTubeTruth no need for personnal attacks, i was offering biological facts. I have alot of respect towards living creatures, including sharks. The way they evolved toward perfect killing machines relying on action-reaction hunting techniques is impressive but you will never see a shark doing anything else than that. They barely have thoughts as that part of their brain has been atrophied. It is one thing to admire an animal for what he is and quite another to assume that because he does one thing well, he is good at everything. Keep in mind sharks are extremely primitive animals. If you want to admire an animal that truly UNDERSTAND what is going on around them, i suggest you check out the octopi.

[@GlobalTubeTruth]

KlioSeth You must be part shark.

[@siremitreppots]

GlobalTubeTruth KlioSeth Klio, you have a simpleton view of biology that is ever evolving and learning. Yes the octopi is brillent, however, there is new shark research that has shown not all shark species are as apparently thoughtless as once thought. Try not to forget that biology does not fully understand thought in the first place. Parts of it yes, however, there are still more mysterious than understandings. Thus NEVER place a absolute blind faith into THEORY that you have done in this comment section. You state, "research has shown that they only rely on action-reaction hunting techniques", you speak as if there is no room for error, that mostly always a error somewhere down the line.

A lot of this kinda thing happening in the past few years from this relatively new sport/hobby of deep sea kayak fishing. These guys are getting closer and closer to these fish and with the advent of all this new, water proof and tremendous camera technology coupled with the internet, you get almost a live feed of this stuff happening a lot more frequently. Now you don't have to wait every year for Shark Week to come on Discovery and witness some of these videos. Just get on to KZbin and you have a new one almost weekly. Times have changed and as a result of all this exposure, it seems these fish don't appear to be as hunted and scarce as they've been eluding to.

I think hitting it with a paddle was a good idea. It's to send the message to the shark that it'd better reconsider attacking the kayaker because they're not an easy target and will fight back. If the hammerhead had been left alone to swim menacingly around the kayakers, it would probably see it as an open invitation to attack them.

[@jackcanard1823]

bluecanoe17 You said it blue, it's all about energy conservation and survival for them. If y'all need a little more proof, take a look at the size of a sharks brain compared to a dolphin brain. When that shark bit the boat, he was doing what all curious sharks do when they don't know what something is. Why are they curious? Because they want to know if it's edible, that's IT. The shark could tell that something was alive in regards to the boat, it was even hitting him in the head with light, relatively painless blows...maybe if that's all this big brown creature has for defenses, it would be a great thing to eat! You can love animals all you like, but don't go anthropomorphizing human morals, musings and ethical considerations into them...such things would be a complete evolutionary disadvantage for a shark anyhow...imagine it..."oh,here's a wonded tarpon...but it doesn't look too bad...maybe if i swim undderneath him and support his weight for a while, he'll regain his strength!

Aphex Wabo You're a complete and utter moron. Typical PETA idiot. You assume something while knowing nothing. I was 25 yards from shore on an inland river about 30 yards from the dock.

You can travel the inter coastal waterway for miles and never be more than 100 yards from shore in water no more than 50 feet deep and still get attacked by sharks.

[@tskfrcdgr]

Eff Yoo ball ammo is enough to penetrate when a shark surfaces. Aim for the base of the fin or just shoot the fin. I've seen bite marks on kayaks, whoooo fuck that. Keep your gun oiled up and in a dry box and clean and oil it when you get back. The salt in the air is what does it. I have to keep my harley washed off after each ride because I'm close to the ocean, and keep it covered in the garage.

By God if it was me I would have whacked the crap out of it. You never know what you are going to do in a situation like that and survival instinct takes over. I am just thankful that he was not harmed and I doubt the shark has been to therapy over the abuse it suffered from being poked by a plastic paddle.

Right on man I'm taking my tandem island shark fishing tomorrow... I have akas on both sides so I won't go swimming hopefully lol

That Hammerhead was gnarly.

[@TheGoldtopdude]

He doesn't want to eat you, he doesn't want competition!.

[@soycracker]

offshore fishing in a kayak seems like a great idea!

Do you license this footage out?

[@ruston56]

Wow! That's good. Who helped you write that?

[@patymoonkaraoke]

I'm sure you don't go into the water thinking there is absolutely no danger. These sports have their risks, but in the end you had an awesome experience. Beautiful shark!

Must be incredible to see a shark first hand.. But also terrifying

[@federalreservebrown2507]

hammerheads have no hesitation coming on board for a chat... never take your eyes off

[@warnutztheloser]

shark looks friendly

hammer heads probably took many pirates , as we hear of the stories of hammerheads swimming in circles and the same with pirate stories
