Misconceptions About Sharks

[@johnathantaylor5913]

7:00 -- I wonder if anyone has tried playing Orca sounds under the water to prevent sharks approaching the coastline wherever people are actively in the water.

I saw "Jaws" 2 weeks before I went on vacation in Florida. I vividly remember going under water and looking out to sea where the water just fades to a murky blue and thinking, yeah, they're out there.

[@wezul]

You needn't look that far out. If you're waist-deep in water, there can easily be a shark between you and the shore. My dad used to go parasailing and he saw sharks between people & the shore all the time, chasing fish, not bothering anybody. People just almost never notice. :)

[@johnstevenson9956]

@@wezul Absolutely true. It was just that when I went under, even though I never saw one, I knew, just beyond my vision, they were there, and that stupid movie made me keep looking.

[@steve_j_grundon]

Your picture of a shark, presumably in a current, while talking about Great Whites sleeping in currents ... is a Tiger shark. 😮

[@wezul]

I can't believe you didn't cover the octopus that was killing sharks in the Seattle Aquarium! That's one of my favorite shark facts! :D

Excuse me, WHAT?

[@y_fam_goeglyd]

@@LadySkywalkerW it's an octopus, it doesn't surprise me!

"you're more likely to get bitten by a human than a shark - especially in New Jersey" 😆🤣

[@JBTriple8]

yes as someone who has fear of sharks these videos help they are not monsters but Animals

"Sharks Don’t Get Cancer" was a myth pushed in a 'health' book in the 90s

[@johnathantaylor5913]

What was the health book's agenda? Eating fish prevents cancer? Swimming prevents cancer?

I had the duck tales them in my head during this video, but it was shark tales 😊.

[@btetschner]

A+ video! Very helpful explanations for sharks, a very commonly misconceived animal!

[@sllagnire]

Saying "Don't think it!" doesn't stop a mom of two toddlers from getting it stuck in her head. Thanks for that, lol

[@sarahbeara946]

My favorite shark fact is that nurse sharks have cuddle parties

[@Apophis324]

Wait.. How does a baboon.. obtain a shark egg? Fishing?

[@y_fam_goeglyd]

Some animals are known to be able to "half sleep". They "switch off" half their brain and later, swap sides. Maybe sharks do that?

[@robotdeer]

Yay sharks!

Fish are friends, not food.

Fellow Duolingo Dutch learner? _Vissen zijn vrienden, geen eten!_ 😉 Definitely don't eat dogfish, they're disgusting. Dad caught one once. Never brought another one home!

[@omarjones8481]

They're some delicious friends

[@dsxa918]

No I want to eat da dogfish with all kind of barbecue sauce and treatments

[@dsxa918]

Now want to eat the dogfish***

[@justayoutuber1906]

Isn't Florida the state where people high on bath salts bite and eat each other?

[@notmyrealchannel559]

sharks aren't really apex predators as most of them fill the middle predator section, with a few exceptions, like great whites, Cretoxyrhina, Tiger sharks, Bull sharks, and Otodus Megalodon.

Why did I know you were going to say New Jersey at the end…

Ow ....no hitting

[@chairshoe81]

i wish i was a shark :(

[@glennso47]

Not all sharks are huge. Some are small about the size of a catfish or even smaller.

Shark Myth #1: All sharks are Great Whites.

[@bruceshark5501]

WHO YOU CALLING GLITCHY?!

[@nhycohyesimon]

Fish are food and friends

[@SECONDQUEST]

Exactly

[@bcallahan3806]

Sharks with 500+ species aren't much different than let's say Felines. Each species can vary wildly in its behavior, aggressiveness, and it's ability to function without movement. Bull Sharks have a tendency to be more aggressive as well as ability to survive in brackish or even fresh water. Other species can also be more aggressive. I wonder if some sleep like some whales, where only half their brain rests at one time. Just a thought. As seal populations are exploding in many areas (especially close to shore) in many areas. It only makes sense sharks that feed on them will move in. Thus more human/Shark interactions occur, most being mistaken identity. Fact is much more research is needed and the wholesale slaughter of sharks needs to end on a global scale. They have incredible healing abilities as well as other attributes that could contribute to medical science as well.

[@scottrichards3587]

I recall how comically fake the scene of Jaws eating Quinn looked at the theatre. I burst out laughing. Everyone looked at me and my girlfriend gave me an elbow to the ribs.

[@scubachickim]

I am a nice shark, not a mindless eating machine. If I am to change this image, I must first change myself. Fish are friends, not food!

[@koppadasao]

My mother told be Jaws scared her shitless, almost literally. As for me, although seeing it as a 12 year old, and being rather scaredy-cat, found it a yawnfest.

[@alistertowelie]

sharks are so cute
