TOP 5 HUGE Paleozoic Sharks You've Never Heard Of

[@hailghidorah2536]

9:11 The soundtrack is the moon base theme of “Destroy all Monsters,” in case you were wondering

[@blueeyedmonster3912]

The last time watched a E.D.G.E Video it had Moog City theme from Minecraft

[@diegorodriguesdesouza7389]

is it the same sountrack from 10:08?

[@hailghidorah2536]

@@diegorodriguesdesouza7389 Don’t think so.

[@CryptadiaSpecEvo]

Yeah as soon as I heard that I went "wait Godzilla?"

[@aspie-anarchist9854]

No I'm pretty sure it's even easier than d a m. I think it's monster zero.

Just discovered your channel! I love anything paleo related and I'll be sure to stick around here :) keep up the good work! I'm Australian and sadly sharks can get an unfair monster like reputation.

[@Jellyapp]

I’m in love with this channel, so well made and so nicely presented!

[@sharksuperiority9736]

I’m sorry but “a honking chonking fish missile” is now the greatest phrase used by any human

I’m never going to forget this absurd classification either.. fish missile? I plead the 5th.

[@lunawalpurgisnacht7765]

the jojo characters surprised me I thought I was going insane

[@spamletspamley672]

I found the remains of one called Pachyrhizodus many years ago. UK Natural History Museum made a fuss about it at the time, but I asked them about it on a visit some years later, and was shown into a back room where it was still flaking away in a tray, apparently untouched since we rushed it to them from the clay pit, where I had, at first, mistaken its head for a large bivalve, as it had hit the sea sillt head first so it was oval in outline. After some scrabbling around where the clay scraping machines had been dragging scars over the old sea bed layers, we found a few vertebrae as well, but it all looked pretty flaky, and I was quite surprised at the excitement of the museum people!

[@williamchamberlain2263]

"Do you really want nobody to see this video" would be a compelling poll...

[@RedXlV]

19:29 "But it will likely be a pretty cool shark in the future." Surely you mean in the past?

[@NorthstarMain]

Uh oh

[@arcticdino1650]

All of these are pretty cool. The art of the texas super shark look like he was happy to be in the video (Also, hmmmmmm, don't think I didn't notice those Jobros in the size comparisons)

[@leonardogurney5488]

They're important to Paleontology, my fellow commentor 😁

[@joseph_soseph9611]

Due to the butterfly effect I most likely wouldn't have watched this video if I hadn't watched jojo. So yeah I'd say they're very important

[@Scarlet_Soul]

Just a note for 13:16 , 30mm is definitely not 30cm. Now that would be a massive shark

[@nectarinn3]

It would be.

[@chunkyboi7443]

30 cm Is the size of an average ruler.

[@macabrevoid]

For those who want to know the music for the “Godzilla Shark” segment: - Destroy All Monsters “Moon Based Theme” - Godzilla v.s Megaguirus “The Ferocious Lifeform”

Good catch!

I've heard of all these, shame there so overlooked though

[@jelfishery]

Yeah, can’t remember the name but the estud... estu... uh. Fuck, I don’t know but it’s a scarier version of the goblin shark

[@KhanMann66]

Fossil too fragmented. Thus they get overlooked.

[@adippinghippo]

"muahaha, you thought it was a fossil of an undiscovered shark, BUT IT WAS ME!" *gasps* "DIOOOO!" >:(

I was surprised to hear a curse word in an informative video but got over it. Love the videos.

Nice bitey title, and great video.

[@Brakiri]

Hahaha...the Godzilla music was well placed!

[@Dionysoshaman]

Love the Godzilla song in the background of the Godzilla shark section

[@NomicFin]

Interesting how the ctenacanthiform sharks seem very similar in appearance to the modern frileld shark: they have a similar head- and bodyshape, and both even have multi-cusped teeth, though frilled sharks have multiple cusps of about the same length instead of one long and multiple short ones. They're not actually closely related, but frilled sharks are among the most basal sharks alive so they may retain traits from early true sharks that would have been more similar to their ctenacanth ancestors.

[@talanigreywolf7110]

I approve the use of Godzilla music (8:54), LoL

[@ecurewitz]

1:25 No, don't do that. Ever. That is always a bad idea!!

[@euchiron]

That end music reminds me a lot of Enya's "Tempus Vernum". Love these videos though! Your title sounds like clickbait but the content is solid!

[@tylerlogan4747]

I look forward to finishing this video, going above and beyond always my guys, I appreciate it~

I haven't seen a lot of videos about stem-sharks, so this is refreshing to watch. Based on the title I was expecting Ptychodus and Chlamydoselachus goliath to show up, but still a great and informing video as always. As a side-note, does anybody know why the Spinosaurus video was made private? Thank you.

Cool video, thanks. Correction: Kaibab is being mispronounced. Narrator is enunciating "Kaibab" as kai-BOB. It's not 'bob.' Second syllable is pronounced as the sound of a bleating sheep with a 'b' on the end. So that makes it baa-b. Kaibaab.

[@Steelwhip2001]

2 months after this video was put up (April 2021) the Godzilla shark got its official name. Its official name is Dracopristis hoffmanorum. The first part of its name means “dragon shark” in Latin, and the latter hoffmanorum is a tribute to the Hoffman family that owns the quarry where the fossil was discovered.
