My father is a marine biologist. When he was younger he was snorkeling at lovers cove (I think that’s the name) off of Catalina island. He and his friend saw a great white, that he said, was the size of a Volkswagen van. They hid behind rocks and then eventually circled up with their backs to each other. Maybe pregnant? I probably would’ve died from panic, honestly. Love you Hal! You manage to bring levity and straight facts that I appreciate.

check out the couple in hatteras nc that were attacked on their honeymoon. Killed the guy and nearly the girl but she survived. I surfed the day before at that pier. Never surfed hatteras again. A few years ago I was hit from below by a large shark and it seems like a territorial deal from what Hal has taught me. Likely a white shark. I was in Atlantic beach nc. Guy next to me saw it and freaked out. I wasn’t bitten just struck really hard, splashed water everywhere and I saw nothing due to the splashes. The fella beside me flailed crazily paddling in but I just stayed calm and figured I would be the calm one and wouldn’t get eaten vs that idiot splashing everywhere. He hit the beach and RAN all the way to his car and left. He never checked on me or even said a word.

Hi Hal, yes I can confirm a few details for the Kai Cowley attack, very tragic, the Great White took his leg and he was only about 30 to 40 m from the beach in about chest deep water, another surfer managed to bring his body back to shore but sadly had passed by then. My youngest daughter knew him, we've surfed pondies a few times which is a good consistent wave around the headland from Ethel beach at Yorkes. Kai was a great upcoming surfer who loved it and I believe his whole family are surfers but have been supported by their local surf community. Also defo have bull sharks in the Bahamas but agree, most likely Tiger that took that poor lady.

I don't have kids, but I imagine it is like family passing, but worse, as you watch it and they're sort of your responsibility to 18. (I'm not saying anyone is at fault, kids have to do things, it's just an unfortunate situation) So many lost. I was in the generation that was affected by ABB in Norway. The ter*or attack in 2011. I'm just glad me, like most others, weren't there, but the story is so sad, as he made a plan on how to get hours extra, especially as police literally had 1 or 0 helicopters. In the entire Norway 😂😢

Another great show Hal. 🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈 I saw something on those sharks washing up in Australia. It was 60 wobbegongs and a port Jackson shark. Wobbegongs don't have big home ranges, so that leaves them very vulnerable to something like that if that's what ended up happening. I saw that drone footage on Instagram. That pithing is wrong, cruel, and its murder. No shark deserves that! You're right when you say that culling doesn't help anything. All it does is damage the numbers of sharks in the environment and Is therefore ILLOGICAL!!!!! Sharks dont infest the ocean, they live there. If you ask me, sharks have more right to be in the ocean than humans do.

The courage required to swim towards a shark attack has to be immense if not damn near insurmountable.. 36 feet away is much different than 36 meters and a 6 footer is much different than a 13 footer and a spouse or child is much different than a stranger ..the calculus is too difficult for me to even speculate. I have no idea whatsoever how I would react.

Not a scientist, but a 30 year reef hobbyist here. I very highly doubt that salinity played any part in the mass fish death. Marine fish can handle a gradual decline in specific gravity (salt) to rather low levels. For that matter, marine fish are treated for parasites by submerging them in fresh water for up to a couple minutes. Even if a massive amount of fresh water were to be dumped into a spot in the ocean, it would dissipate before it would cause any issue at all. Maybe the local authorities (water, sewage, ) did something dumb and are blaming it on salt.

You said in the first story, in Nassau Bahamas, that you didn't think Bull Sharks were in the Bahamas. But when I hear of Bull Shark attacks, other than in the Bahamas, I'm surprised. I was diving in the waters near Freeport, and had them swimming around me. I had never seen one before, nor dove in the Bahamas. Ive done 200 dives, all over the Caribbean. The shark, looked to me, like a statue. They are eating machines, so to speak. And I've been to Nassau a few times, and knew of all the sharks in those islands. Tourist let their guards down.

I think the recent shark attacks that hit me the hardest -The young mum who was attacked lifting her child onto a floating playground in Mexico (Grrr... Who would build a floating playground that is accessible to sharks)? -The high school grad who jumped off the pirate ship in the Bahamas. That one is very controversial, I know. But I strongly believe it was a shark predation. If not, then a mermaid must of pulled him under and taken him to Atlantis. -The teenage Aussie surfer. And, -The young Russian in Egypt. I had nightmares after seeing the video of his attack. I think attacks on younger people are so much worse to stomach.😢. I guess because I am a mother, and these people are the same ages as my kids.

Real conservation would be keeping people out of the water in dangerous shark habitats. Real conservation would be an international moratorium on commercial fishing for a few years, to let the fish stocks recover. Real conservation would be ending the use of pesticides and artificial fertilizers that wash into the oceans and kill marine life. When I hear about people killing hundreds of sharks just to keep swimming tourists a little more complacent, it makes me so angry that I feel almost as though humans deserve to get eaten... almost.

Sulfonamides were invented in the 1930's, so yeah, before that an infection would be super serious. If you are allergic to sulfa(like me), you'd be in a lot of trouble until penicillin in the '50's. Living pre-antibiotics would have sucked very badly.

Fleming invented penicillin in 1928 and it was readily available in the 1940s. Sulfa drugs were limited to certain pathogens, many bacterium were resistant. Before Sulfa and Penicillin- The Limb containing the bite would be amputated to try to prevent the spread of infection. Many people would die of shock from the amputation, or extreme fevers from the local infection. If they were strong enough to overcome a general infection, they still faced full sepsis (blood poisoning) and septic shock or gangrene. A good example of a shark bite becoming gangrenous was in the movie called "the Beach". Thank goodness that Penicillin was available for WWII, imagine the fatality rate without it.

Hal, about your first account: according to a few websites I just visited, there are indeed bull sharks present in the waters off the Bahamas, though apparently they don't breed there. Thanks for another great video.
@dejadii22 күн бұрын
Yep!! Definitely plenty of Bulls in the Bahamas and even Whites too! In fact, OCEARCH has tracked several there, and the ones that pinged in the area in the past (and some even around the time of Cameron Robbin’s death) include Maple, Ironbound, Luna, Miss Costa, and Crystal.

Another great show. Btw, there are over 40 species of sharks in the Bahamas including Bull Sharks. Probably a tiger shark on the first attack though.

I always knew paddel boards and kayaks were risky in croc infested waters, but I didn't realise how dangerous sharks were until this channel. It's very educational.
