As someone who lives in Louisiana, I have never heard anything (besides that Shark Week episode) on this legend, but Bull Sharks have been caught in Lake Pontchartrain, hell last year a fishermen caught a 6 Ft Bull Shark on the lakefront

Born and raised in at Charles parish and yah I’ve never hear of this either. We all know about bull sharks but never heard of the rookin before…

[@1melissacausey]

Exactly!!!! Never heard of this except from shark week. I fish everywhere here and the only bull shark I’ve ever caught in the freshwater is 4’

[@RVered]

My Google search of this thing also found NO sources other than Shark Week's """documentaries""" or content relating to them; I found at least one business and a band named Rookin, but both appeared after this nonsense started airing. Discovery has entirely abandoned any pretexts; they're going full Ancient Aliens. These might technically be worse; everything in AA is nonsense, but the filmed monuments are real (I think; I watched a minute in total). That's...something, at least. While these have footage of the wrong sharks 😂😂😂😂

[@klarenee1123]

Lived in South Louisiana almost my entire life(42 yrs) and I’ve literally never EVER once in my life heard this story😅 However, the Rougarou was absolutely a part of the life and nightmares of every kid that grew up on the bayou.

[@Debbie338]

And that name was definitely taken directly from “ loup garou,” which is the French version of a werewolf. So, they probably made up that shark name along the same principle.

If a bull shark loses a tooth every time you drink a beer, he would be like my grandmother.

[@williamcarothers2]

I grew up in south Louisiana, and the idea of locals being afraid of a bull shark is hilarious to me. We all grew up swimming in lakes and bayous while alligators bathed on the banks a stone’s throw away (maybe not the wisest thing, in hindsight). I imagine that people accustomed to seeing 10-13ft alligators on a daily basis would be intrigued by the novelty of seeing a large bull shark, but frightened to the point of mythologizing? No way.

[@-Ghostess]

Similar in Florida. Tourists get freaked out about a local bullshark hot spot, while we swim arms length from them. We grew up splashing heavily getting thrown off tubes while listening to bull gators bellowing in the weeds.

[@swordablaze9259]

Did the 'gators never attack people? Or did you know when to be near them (like after they'd eaten?). I'm a Brit and would definitely be too scared to swim anywhere near them 😅

Hello, thank you for your entertaining and well researched videos. I wondered if I could make a request for a video? I am from the UK and have been lucky enough to swim in many places around the world but since I have had children I have become more cautious about safety when in the ocean. Could you possibly make a video please about how to assess the safety of snorkelling in certain areas where there may be sharks? I understand the sea itself is the most dangerous bit. We are going to Fueterventura and I would love to take my child snorkelling there as I have done before. I only recently read about how there are hammerheads, whites and mako’s around the islands, but is that something that should really concern the average snorkeler? Sorry this is in a comment but I was not sure how to contact you. Thank you again.

[@wolfen210959]

Hi Kristian, recent subscriber to your channel and I wondered if you might have an opinion on something I have noticed while watching some shark encounter videos on YT. I recently watched 30 different scenes of peoples' encounters with sharks, and one thing that I noticed is that tiger sharks appear to be more persistent than other sharks, as in more effort and time was required to dissuade them from approaching. One particular clip I remember, a spear fisherman, who may have had fish, had to poke the tiger shark numerous times with his speargun before the shark retreated, it circled him for several minutes, occasionally charging him, whereby he poked it to divert it's charge but it went right back to circling him, before charging him again. Is this normal behaviour for tiger sharks, or was it a combination of dead fish and a hungry shark that made it so persistent?

[@OneAmancham]

Hadn't heard of that myth yet. But it was very entertaining and fun to watch. Though, next time, take a drink that you enjoy? It's bad enough that you have to go through those weird 'documentaries' at least drink something you enjoy :D Looking forward to the next one :)

Greetings from Georgia USA. I've recently discovered your channel, and have been binge watching your videos. Great content! I agree that Bud lite tastes like piss. If you want an American beer, with a shark theme even, you should try to get ahold of Narragansett. It's the beer that Quint was drinking on the Orca in the scene where he crushes the can, and then Hooper crushes the styrofoam cup. A bit of trivia, that beer was chosen for the scene because Narragansett was the first brewery to use aluminum cans, as in the early 70s almost all beers were in steel cans, so it being aluminum, it was easier for Robert Shaw to crush the can. Keep making great content. You have a new subscriber. Cheers mate!

Firstly, I absolutely LOVE your videos -- ALL of them! Secondly, as a New Orleans, Louisiana, native, I've heard a lot of myths, but this is a first for this one. I'm not an "outdoorsy" person, but I've gone fishing a few times in my 6+ decades of life. I've caught the usual crap that's found in Lake Pontchartrain (pronounced PON-cha-train; yeah, the first "R" is silent). By the "usual" I mean tires, rusted old crab traps, and other trash. I also caught a fish or two, but it was always catch and release. I wouldn't advise eating anything out of that filthy lake. Way back in the day, a good ol' fashioned fried shark po-boy was just one of many delicious fish on the menu. Then shark-catching was banned in the '80s or '90s, I think. No more shark po-boys. That still makes me sad. The last thing I have to say is you deserve a medal for pushing through that beer. If you ever make it to SE Louisiana, try Abita Beer (Abita Amber is my fave). Also, I'd avoid Bourbon Street, esp on weekends. It's highly over-rated and very dangerous. JMHO.

Bourbon St is very dangerous ? Lmao. Stay your scary ass non fishing self home.

"Grandma", the biggest bull shark at Bequa Passage in Fiji between Viti Levu and Bequa Island is estimated to be 12 ft long. She looks like a great white. When I dove there the largest I saw was "Crook" who is estimated to be around 10ft. These outclass the Florida bulls which I think average around 7-8 honest ft long. By the way, "Big Blue" is really around 17 ft long, not 20 ft.
