How sharks affect us all | Ocean Ramsey | TEDxKlagenfurt

[@norachen7785]

Every time I read or watch something about Ocean and her work, my fear or sharks turns more into love...

[@KB-tg7pf]

me too!

[@mahtoe]

Uh huh... but no matter how much you love sharks, sharks don't love you and will ALWAYS look at you as a potential food source and nothing more. The love is a one way street and don't let your emotion cloud that. Love them from dry land. I wont be one bit surprised when this woman is killed by a Great White if she swims with them often enough. I don't know how often she's doing it but if it's often, the odds will turn and she WILL be killed.

[@landflame]

Spielberg ruins sharks' reputation....

[@spillthetea9453]

crack shot She swims with sharks almost every day, and with white sharks every season. This is a woman who has studied shark behavior for years at university and has been diving with them for years. I think she is smart enough to calculate a shark’s behavior and if it is aggressive, she will get out of the water 😒 so dont worry

@David Walker your joke is patethic! I wish i could joke like that too!

I had a chance to meet Ocean and chat with her. The passion that flows through her is infectious. I have also been out with One Ocean Diving twice and look forward to going again. So grateful to have the opportunity to interact with these beautiful animals.

[@ATRAX77777]

Best part was when the presentation suddenly stopped working and Ocean improvised like: "It's just so cuddly with it's pudgy smile and cuddly white belly!" Loved your presentation! What you're doing for sharks is simply amazing!

[@aulaparticulardeinglesrecr6872]

Ocean Ramsey, what an incredible and special person...

[@brudenell27]

I’m right with you, this has been my arm chair rant and anger towards people ignorance and hate towards the hateful people that brutally cut up. The tv and media doesn’t help with there demonising rhetoric towards them, I even tell friends who have no interest, they won’t even go swim in the sea where in the south of England where I live has no dangerous sharks. I’d love to be able to help in anyway if I could

[@cased8011]

Where do even begin, this video was awesome more people need to see this. People need to hear this. Cause the more people hear this the more people will know the truth and these negative impacts are actually happening so she is right, there really is no denying the importance of sharks.

[@myho-pe8655]

I know I’m 4 years late to this incredible message and movement, but better late than never. Thank you @oceanramsey for your necessary work to bring attention and respect to sharks. All my life I’ve felt a deep desire to dive with them and explore everything about them. I agree they are beautiful graceful creatures so integral to our oceans! I ❤️🦈

She is doing such a great job setting examples and helping raise awareness. In our timing of our lives we found someone like her💌

[@GIBBO4182]

She is far too intrusive. Constantly having to touch the animals for an Instagram picture. She also refuses to share any of the data she is allegedly collecting with other researchers and conservationists…definitely not person you think she is. The channel Shark Bytes did a very interesting video about her

here in the Balearic Islands there are sharks of different species and the great white of South Africa... apart from Orcas. The Balearic Sea is rich thanks to the Posidonia and the richness of the species that live and are protected. Years ago there were great white sharks of 6 meters. There have been no attacks in the area and we respect their habitat

[@tonycollyweston]

GREAT TALK, EVERYONE ON THIS PLANET SHOULD WATCH THIS

[@MegaBspark]

i love sharks, however the same could be said for most animals becoming endangered or extinct upsetting the balance of nature, although the one animal i believe nature will not miss and would probably flourish without is us, humans.

[@lauraindira8421]

MegaBspark agree

[@faisalmousa9435]

I don't think that's correct because if anything where destroying the earth. Earth wouldn't care and neither would nature if were extinct

[@eliasramsey3902]

Congrats Ocean! Stoked on this!

[@aaronwilliford7345]

"...a measurable impact for sharks." On the contrary... I think this extraordinary woman's impact for sharks will ultimately be far beyond measure. Sharks could not possibly ask for a more appealing and effective representative... for a better friend. Brilliant... Beautiful... Bold. Wow.

[@jamiecumbee4108]

She is so beautiful not just her looks. Its her love for people that say they are killers and she swims right next to them

[@CaramelSunflowers]

Ocean has the passion that I have for wolves and although I am still very scared of sharks thanks to Jaws, I can see that she sees them just like I see wolves - essential.

[@superfly19751]

It’s crazy I was thinking if I want to come face to face with an Apex land predatory I will want to be with Kevin Richardson. And if I want to jump into the ocean to face my number one fear that is the shark I would go with Ocean Ramsey. This is before she got to the Lion Whisperer part. I’ve never heard of her until the NBC video showing she swimming with the 20’ white shark. I love her work. She is a wonderful voice for the sharks. And no, I will never take up another offer from my friend for a bowl of shark fin soup ever again. In fact I will tell him what I just saw today from this video. Hopefully he will get on board and spread the message to his fellow Chinese friends. I wish you good luck and much success on your mission.

[@scarletnaranjo6804]

She's concerned about the animal instincts and that is so sweet of her so I Agree w her. Doing a good job Ocean keep it up!!

[@IDVIPERMAN]

Some people have a certain aspect of themselves that animals understand. When I lived in Idaho I had a huge grizzly bear that came in my yard one day. He wasn’t mean or agressive, just curious. I immediately ran inside a d grabbed my rifle. He rolled over on his back and started rubbing it on the grass. He never got close enough for me to pet him. He was just hanging out. I never fed him so he had no reason to come. I think he just liked my company.

[@GioLopez101]

I love sharks. I may have seen them in Sea World. There were kind of cool. One time, I saw a man capture a small shark on Daytona Beach, it was cool and I record. He just used a dead fish to lure the shark. But since I saw the presentation, I felt bad for the small shark. I don't like how the sharks got their fins cut. It is stupid. And I like Ocean Ramsey, she's beautiful and made sense about sharks. They should be save. I think we have to understand them like Ocean did. They are species living in the same Earth like us. Let's not lose hope for the sharks.

people think humans are afraid of sharks because of "Jaws" but we're are the afraid of crocodiles too, we are afraid of predators, it's in our nature.

[@musicbox2466]

That is the nature of narcissists, they fear what they cannot control. I was never afraid of sharks, or anything with big teeth, not even when I was a kid.

[@cased8011]

Yeah but the think is that because of said fear that’s also part of the reason why we are making sharks go extinct. That’s exactly what she was talking about. But, what people don’t realize is that we have nothing to fear from sharks in the ocean because the chance of getting attacked by a shark is next to nothing it’s 1 in over 3,000,000 and what people don’t realize is that we need sharks.

I was actually never scared of sharks, one of the reason is because i surf, and i love scuba diving, and I love them, they are beautiful. There was one time when I was young, many times actually, I wondered why do people kill sharks just for their fin? It does nothing for you, and people can not suspend another’s life just for one thing that satisfies the need of a person.

Who are the 8 people that "disliked" this video? Maybe they think shark fin soup is more important than the earth's eco system and saving sharks from extinction I thought it was an incredible presentation and message. I am a huge fan of Kevin Richardson and his mission to save lions and now I am a huge fan of you and your mission. I loved that you mentioned him in your presentation. Keep up the great work. I also help animals in need from feral cats to injured seagulls and other birds. So, I get inspired from people like you to do more.

[@rebeccad8568]

I haven’t disliked her video so am not one of the 8 and I understand why you like this presentation but there’s a whole other side to Ocean which I won’t go into here. If you’re interested then do a bit of Googling and also check out the Shark Bites KZbin channel - he is an actual shark scientist. Have a good day.

Majority of Asian countries have been confronted on this issue. They will say they understand the need for change but when it comes down to action...... You no the answer. There's a great documentary here on KZbin but ul have to do a quick search for it but ul find it. It's informative but so shocking and sad to see these beautiful creatures dragged on board alive, fins hacked off and thrown back in alive. Where they just drop down to the sea bed and drown. I don't cry much but this made me cry. Like that Chinese proverb ocean is talking about we are doomed to fail if no one is willing to change

[@pvtrichardsonbr]

Its a shame how detached we are from nature. And how we have the nerve to consider any other species to be monsters. Its crazy how out of touch we are. Like think about it, if you were on another planet and saw any other creature from earth youd be so happy! Because they are your fellow earthling. Yet we dont have this attitude here

[@TheIrishrogue68]

Ms. Ramsey is to be commended for spreading the word about the important role sharks play in the ocean's ecosystem and the need to protect them from indiscriminate slaughter-- but for god sakes enough already with playing Steve Irwin or Timothy Treadwell.

[@AtortAerials]

Great job Ocean and glad you are standing up for the cause! Petting a lion and lion whisperer though?!??! I think a key message for others to hear is that the utmost respect one can give Mother Nature and her creatures is to leave well enough alone meaning protect but not interfere or touch unless strictly for science and preserving their future. Just hope everyone is clear on this. Aloha
