Shark Expert Reveals What's Lurking Off San Diego's Shores

[@Lce_lukas]

I got circled by a 15 foot great white 3 days ago about 1 mile off of La Jolla point/condo. It was 120 ft deep. I was in a 10.5 ft Hobie kayak. It circled me about 5 times over 2 minutes. Finally swam away after I slapped my paddle at it and practically hit it in the nose. Was a 9.6/10 on the terrifying scale..

[@u4riahsc]

One time about 25 years ago I was swimming from La Jolla shores to Sunny Jim’s and I was circled by a blue shark. Freaked me out and I went over reefs to the shore of private homes, ran through a back yard and climbed over a fence to get back on the street so I could walk back to La Jolla shores.

[@StLProgressive]

La Jolla is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been. I’m glad it was too cold to swim while we were there in early May. 😂

[@chesterfinecat7588]

I used to body surf off Stinson Beach when I was a lad. Couldn't pay me to try it now. "Hey, let's dress-up like seals and play with the Great Whites!"

[@willrichardson5772]

I’m from Stinson beach

[@BOOGIECali]

@@willrichardson5772 Is it that bad?

[@ADM-wt9cn]

I was free diving once and a great white mom swam over me me... She circled back and it felt like I got slapped in the head and was surrounded in red murky water, then there were two sharks. She had her baby on top of my head. Almost knocked me out, one of the best days of my life.

[@TheRootMessage]

These lifeguards and state parks employees now act like police in 2020 and give out demands and call police on you over surfing.

[@theanswerisinthebackofyourhead]

Welcome to the Soviet states of America where your freedoms and liberties are slowly disappearing and your life is in danger if you see or hear of the ruling class doing things they shouldn't be doing but do so anyway.

[@TheRootMessage]

@@theanswerisinthebackofyourhead Yup, I was arrested in california for surfing. Fought it in court and was still found guilty... Freedom they said.

[@The-GreenHornet]

@@TheRootMessage That's bogus! They don't own the ocean or have a title deed to it. I was born and raised in SoCal, spent many summers in Huntington body boarding, but that was many years ago. From Laguna Beach south is a hot bed for great white sharks, because of all the seal population. I honestly think that there are a lot more great white sharks in those waters than what's being reported by the so-called officials. Further north of Laguna the seal population drastically decreases so only possible juvenile great white sharks are in those waters.

[@livequality4578]

None of this was a problem until shark-fin soup was banned. Great short-term thinking CA!!!

[@williamkuhns2387]

Notice the bright orange Garibaldi fish are so numerous and you don't see other fish is that they are the only species protected from fishing. The other species have been fished-out. In the fish market in Ensenada, Baja California (no laws) you see whole Garibaldi on ice. Interesting that the fish market there is named "Mercado Negro" that translated to "Black Market" in English🤔

[@evanherrera5948]

Lol ur dumb there is other fish there but not bring orange haha wow ur dumb huh? Do u feel smart? Lmao

[@SalsaSippin_]

How about that guy that got eaten in 1959 by a great white shark off la Jolla cove?

[@MrVictoryfilms]

I have surfed right there. It's a great break on a south swell.

[@The-GreenHornet]

Dude! Cowabunga

[@mattvallejos697]

That guy looks Garth from Wayne's world! Lol

ROTF 😆

[@halheywood3910]

When they banned the Gill Nets the population increased dramatically there are giant sharks everywhere now my friends have been attacked in Laguna . There's Giants all over this place now from La Jolla to Laguna

[@nickmitsialis]

One of the most notorious fatal California white shark attacks took place in La Jolla: Robert Pamperin was literally 'carried off' by a very large white shark. I think he was the last known 'total consumption attack' in California waters.

[@nickmitsialis]

@@US_John Welp do you have 'the stones' to do what needs to be done? Humans had the brains to learn how to 'hunt down' potential predators, farm for food to prevent famine and also create medicine to fight illnesses. IF you want to cut down on the human population, how about denying ALL financial, food and medical assistance to countries with high birthrates in the third world--after they all go 'Lord of The Flies' with each other and all that's left is rubble and charred bones, the 'natural world' will rebound--eventually. Trouble is, can you endure the bleeding hearts in the News and TV showing us the 'ongoing humanitarian disaster' day and night?

Filthy Disgusting Ape shut up, Nazi

[@annabizaro-doo-dah]

@@nickmitsialis You do know the Agricultural revolution was the biggest con in history? The *majority* of humanity have been sicker and there's been MORE famine since we gave up our hunter gatherer lifestyle to settle down and farm.

[@annabizaro-doo-dah]

@@nickmitsialis Poor Robert was literally eaten alive. Horrific.

[@igotajopamerica3040]

The sharks are there. Just depend if there hungry.

[@darthvader566]

Yea there are sharks, its the fucking ocean, by going in u are risking shark encounters

[@sigmundqfreud5040]

Dana Carvey is an expert in sharks? I dont trust it, not after seeing waynes world.

[@michaeldailey2158]

I spent years spear fishing in the waters off San Diego and a four foot tiger is the biggest I ever saw !!

[@humelakecabin]

Are you sure that it wasn't a Leopard shark? Plenty of those around, but I ve never seen a tiger shark in So.Cal waters.

[@Maddawg12345]

Probably a leopard shark . Tiger shark are tropical warm water sharks. San Diego is not tropical or that warm of water.

[@RatedA4Aliens]

Shark attacks are not rare when we got two shark attacks in san diego this year, on in La Jolla, one in En Chinitas

[@jlkailua]

RatedA4Aliens Nearly every year, at least one person is attacked by a Tiger Shark. I’ve surfed and been in the water all my life and have never seen one though.

[@The-GreenHornet]

@@jlkailua BS, there's no tiger sharks in those waters. Too cold for them.

[@conqueringlion420]

Of course the parents aren’t there they are up in San Clemente ... yes it’s true plus hammerheads

[@The-GreenHornet]

You go in the water...sharks in the water. Farewell and adieu to me fare Spanish ladies...Farewell and adieu to me ladies of Spain, for I've been given orders to sail back to Boston and so shall I never see you again.

Race 4him Show me the way to go home. I’m tired and I wanna to go to bed. I had a little drink about an hour ago, and it gone straight to my head. Wherever I may roam, on land or sea or foam, You can always hear me singing a song......bam, bam, BAM. That whole scene is legendary, one of the best ever filmed.

[@The-GreenHornet]

@@StLProgressive I love Jaws

[@BurninatorTheTrogdor]

Ok kids have fun at school. I didn't pack your lunch today so you'll have to eat up at the shallows.

[@bluesdawg8014]

San Clemente is and has been breeding grounds for great whites, hammer heads breeding ground is off Redondo Beach up north. Sharks are a beautiful animal, the ocean is their home. We're the invaders. RESPECT IS NEEDED TO KEEP EVERYTHING BALANCED Los Angeles Fisherman 60 years experience

[@The-GreenHornet]

False, San Clemente is not a breading ground for great white sharks. I call bs on you

Oof, that calico bass though....i wanna cast

great white shark are the king of the shark

[@halheywood3910]

This guy is wrong . Totally wrong

[@chesterfinecat7588]

Because SCRIPPS is a bogus outfit like Trump U?

[@plutoplatters]

and you're correct. I guess.

[@johntobin3923]

The big sharks are more elusive and in remain in the the depths.

[@robertjankovic8467]

Yeah but they have to give birth so actually you'll get alot of big females passing through . Guess what after birth they are probably starving so if you see a pup gtfo the water or your lunch

[@halheywood3910]

They birth san clemente

[@LL-ii3fy]

seals and sealions are fastfood for the sharks

This lifeguard Greg Buchanan has the same family name as a Bayeatch tv show’s lifeguard Mitch Buchanan.

[@Steve_643]

If you get attacked by a GW shark it’s bad luck better odds to get struck by lightning the only thing you could do to prevent it is never swimming in the water you know they live in!!!! If it happens your in fates hands because there isn’t much a human could do to stop a super predator like the GW when your not in your environment and it is, good luck with that!!!!!

I have been a fan the great white shark for my whole life since age first grade but domestic violence has ruined my perfect record if alk my ocean shows I have watched

[@williamsmith5521]

It is where great white have babies

[@rvierra7235]

Big thumbs down to this report. And I am amazed that a "so called" expert would not qualify these statement/claims prior to making them. The fact is we dont know enough to say anything conclusive about any shark(s).

[@DooberD33]

I’m going to California and I’m tripping when he said that there is no adult great white sharks (we think)

[@morgangrey4020]

well he thought wrong....did diver training off the coast there and there are many great whites well over 14 feet just off the coast
