@@pantoflaspantofla4285 You know what apex predator means, right? It means no other animal (besides humans) hunt it in its environment. Well, some orcas hunt for great whites (Farralon Islands, South africa, ...), but no animal hunts for orcas --> The great white, as magnificent and beautiful as it is, is not even an apex predator, let alone, 'the top one' ;-)

[@Magnusfication]

@@bolleke702 orcas eating great whites is very rare. But ur right. The definition of an apex predator is that there is no other animal hunting for them. So in that sense ur right. But saying orcas are actively hunting white sharks is a bit of a stretch. Its like elephants occasionally stomping a lion. That doesnt mean the lion is suddenly not an apex predator anymore.

[@animehuntress9018]

It's why I stopped bothering with shark week. They went from legit documentaries that really dove into the reality of sharks to a bunch of people showboating. Yeah researchers and naturalist photographers get pretty nuts when they get good footage and info, much like storm chaser go nuts over tornadoes, but they don't generally play the one-upshipmen game when trying to get those shots or prove theories. They don't purposely make questionable decisions because the camera is rolling. Which is how Shark Week Comes off now.

[@MattTheriot]

Sharks are awesome, diving with sharks, in a rover, scuba or free-diving is awesome, recording sharks is great. Random C-list celebrities commenting on shark footage is stupid, why is this a thing? Can't Discovery just focus on the science/marine-biology? How is some comedian's unfunny commentary even close to as entertaining as footage of a huge sharks!?

Jake Shark week used to be a really informative good show but it’s become an overly manipulated bunch of nonsense.

"The oceans top apex predator" Clearly never seen Orcas then...

[@parabellum4429]

[@DeadManWalknTV]

Sparto I thought exactly the same thing bro

[@SoomNou]

Great whites are usually smaller on the surface so orcas easily get them dead with teamwork. It would be harder with a bugger great white which usually stays below, but if even the smaller, or heck, the bigger white sharks work together against orcas, it would be a COMPLETLY different story. Like a caveman who is intelligent.

[@sparto2132]

Okay so even without their main tactic, an Orca alone has pretty much every advantage over a Shark except biteforce. Also Orcas know that sharks are in trouble if they fully stop or are flipped (TI) and use this to there advantage. Also Great white Carcass's have washed up with no real damage apart from there liver removed which is what Orcas mainly eat due to it being a large energy source. Also look at the 1997 Farrallon Island footage somewhere where a lone Orca rams a great white to stun it, flip it and then proceed to hold it's breath while laying ontop of it essentially choking the shark. All in all the Orca is faster and bigger and it's sensors are very sharp and the great white will have a hard time getting at it in the first place. But in the real world said orca will have another 5/10+ orcas swimming with it. They're highly sociable mammals So you expect them to work in pods.

[@11DNA11]

IMDb Video Games Orcas are a thousand times smarter than any shark. They eat Great Whites. So yes. They're the apex predator in the ocean.

[@skyemerald1903]

i want you to take a very close look at the second shark in the background to the right of his suspected "brother" shark between 4:18 - 4:21. I want you to pay special attention to the Pectoral Fins, (Large bottom fins) of the second shark to the right of his brother. Along with everything else on the shark in general. It actually looks as if the shark is actually rendering. As if he was placed there artificially. Right around 4:19 to 4:20 his Pectoral Fin basically glitches and skips over a couple of frames until its completely blocked by its other Pectoral fin. Also his skin changes and glitches on top of his body as well during this time. Just pay very close attention and you may see what i see. If not, Well then i shall see myself out...

[@skyemerald1903]

Also 5:02 - 5:05 the left Pectoral fin of the shark in the upper right literally does the same thing and glitches, All while the other shark moves fluidly and naturally so its definitely not my internet connection lol.
