@Frenchfili You shouldn’t speak on what you don’t know, The bait fish were hanging around the cage for cover, they always hang around structure. That white shark circled him to investigate and weigh up it’s prey, it then bumped the “cage” to get a feel for it and decided it could get to him, it swam off to get distance and attacked from a blindspot below.If you look at it’s eyes it was never looking at the baitfish and was completely uninterested in them, it wanted the dude and if that “cage” wasn’t there he would be dead.He was also lucky there was rigging in the water and the shark got tangled in it or when he got thrown out and was splashing around like a retard it would of circled back and taken his soul.

The shark didnt attack. Shark attacks dont look like that. That shark literally just tried to bite that thing because it wanted to know what it was. Same with the surfer in the beginning of the video. That surfer wasnt attacked by a shark.

How nice of the shark to test the structural integrity of the box for the diver. Such thoughtful creatures.

[@mnomadvfx]

If this clip is even real then the "box" was no more than basic thick single pane glass - not even up to handling an accidental knock from the boat, let alone a purposeful ramming from a multi ton shark that has the power to lift itself all the way out of the water when hunting. *I very much doubt it is - Discovery has a history of faking or misrepresenting content for entertainment during Shark Week. Also the box was surrounded by fish - however that happened it was clearly designed to draw the shark in and confuse it.

I've seen researchers talk about how it is possible that the metal on some shark diving cages may change the sharks behavior and disrupt their senses because of the ampullae of Lorenzini which sharks and rays use to sense the electromagnetic field... but this was designed poorly. The guy was in a position where he was horizontal and looked more like a seal and any strong bump they could easily overturn it. The shark may have been cut by the plastic too. Idiotic design and I would be surprised if the design wasn't purposeful (I mean they designed it to get more interaction from the sharks on purpose and disregarded the diver's safety. Also, after the first two inquisitive bumps they should have reeled him in anyway).

Fr, but imagine the absolute terrifying panic he felt. He climbed on the remnants of the box just to back away as much as possible from the water, then he just wanted to get out of the situation. I don’t understand why nobody tried to help him somehow to get faster out of the water.

[@rspen2142]

Well, I can't lie, I would have panicked like HELL!!!

[@cyathoris7530]

Ok but saying you wouldn’t do the same is a huge lie

[@gab_shirohige]

It's always funny to me when people behind their screen will comment like "dOnT pAnIC blah blah".. like dude every single person in the world, professional or not, will act exactly the same way like that guy. It's totally different when you're in that situation and realizes you're about to die in a gruesome way.

[@ninefive0]

He immediately scrambled to put something between him and the shark, checked the shark's position, and made a break for it after realizing he had no other option. I don't know what he could have done different given his tether was in the shark's jaws. But notice, they don't show him getting back to the boat and he's not the one being interviewed... Fishy.

And had the diver been killed it would have been reported as "A diver tragically killed in shark attack." There is no tragedy in someone taunting a great white in open water. India Delta 10 Tango!

A "plastic box" versus a "Great White shark." Yeah, what could possibly go wrong?

A deep sea sub, using a Nintendo controller, diving to the wreck of the Titanic. Seems legit.

Yeah this guy is a goofball. I feel like its staged. Where I grew up as a kid, we were taught to literally do none of what this guy did and he's the 'expert'. It's really a shame that they sold out great whites just for the sake of 'fear' as a sales tactic.

Did you also noticed the diver taping on the glass to attract the shark ? Sharks hate low frequency, taping on a glass plate like a drum produce low frequency. That's like getting in the shark domain, attracting it, doing everything you can to provoke it, then acting as a victim who was attacked by a monster.

Jeff left out that Jimmy almost died the next day. If they would have been further out in sea he would have died . He had a major stroke . If it wasn't for Jeff and the other guys with them , I think Andy and I forgot the other guys name , but they acted very quickly to get Jimmy help , the helicopter paramedics was phenomenal. Thank God Jimmy is still with us . He will never be able to go scuba diving again but he's alive and that's all that matters . We love you Jimmy glad that you survived. Both the shark attack and the stroke ! God is good ❤

I’m surprised that no one is bringing up the question whether that shark ingested any of the ‘glass’ shards as its teeth shattered the box. If so, those pieces would surely carve up its insides in a most cruel and damaging way? Did the team consider that aspect when pining for fame?

[@BreGrateful]

Yes I was thinking the same thing. And for the shark not to come back to grab him shows that the shark had suffered some sort of pain. But humans mean more than animals I guess. Even though our “inventions” kills them everyday. Especially sea creatures smh.

[@darlenerdz1300]

I agree. If you watch the video right after the cage attack, you can see a big piece of the glass in the shark's mouth, and it probably ingested it.

What glass shards? They just said it was a form of plastic. Listen carefully

[@littlenonni4410]

This to me is probably the best shark attack footage I’ve seen because of all the different angles and how huge it was, how he’s still alive is a miracle, did bits of the “cage” get stuck in the sharks mouth? Maybe that’s why it got distracted long enough he got away? Hope shark wasn’t harmed in any way too.

[@jamiedragonlady_3291]

I think it was the bubbles from the oxygen line; a whale swallowed a squid fisherman once and he was released because of the bubbles coming from his scuba gear

yes, the plastic sheet broke but was still a sheet, this pushed the divers leg away from the sharks mouth as it bit down idk why they ever even released this footage i mean it has unprofessional written all over it
