White Shark Cruising Next to Swimmer off Aptos, Monterey Bay, California.

This is a 10-foot white shark that was patrolling up and down New Brighton State Beach when a swimmer passed through. The shark was just minding it's own business, warming-up, but we ended up letting the swimmer know that there was a large shark in the water that we were filming. Didn't want to cause a panic but felt we had a duty to act, even though shark warning signs are posted at this location. At any rate, these sharks like the shallows since the water is warm there and interactions with swimmers, surfers, boogie boarders and SUP are going to be inevitable.

What I’ve learned from drone footage is that there are sharks swimming around surfers and swimmers all the time and chances are I’ve been in much closer to a shark than I ever knew. I’m not sure if this is scary or reassuring.

@@EE-hi4re Some do. There are numerous documented shark attacks where humans were consumed--not cases of mistaken identity with just a test bite, but the shark coming back multiple times taking chunks of flesh and ultimately consuming the entire person. This has been documented for bull sharks, oceanic white tips, tiger sharks and great whites. It might not happen often, but it does happen and it is absolutely brutal.

I cage dived (1st time ever) with great white sharks at Isla Guadalupe off of Baja, learned so much about them being that close and seeing how they reacted to us. The big adults are very wary and very reluctant to make any rash decisions, yet they were curious. Huge up close, the girth is just nuts. They were very gentle.. until the crew dropped a tuna head off the boat suspended by a rope about 10 yards from the cage. One shark dove straight down until we could not see it anymore, then rocketed straight back up and hit that tuna head with such force that we could feel the energy underwater. We watched the whole thing that close. They never bumped our cage or acted aggressively at all towards us. The crew said that particular shark (13 ft male) that hit the tuna like that shows up every year and does not disappoint.

You would be shocked how often we are literally in the midst of those fish. However, he did say that it seems the young ones are just curious and he never saw them bump, bite, or attack anyone. Basically, according to him, if the shark was six feet or smaller, you were usually OK.

Ashley Baggio absolutely. Unless he just ate cause we have to take all that also in to account. But even a Tiger Shark mildly hungry might have turned out differently

[@Jack9N]

Haha.. why. I’ve had both bull sharks and tiger sharks casually swim under me.. I never felt threatened let alone even considered food. Maybe luck... but ive had 2 bull sharks go under me and 2 tiger sharks. All seperate occasions. One bull shark in about 1.5m deep water too. It was casual. I wasn’t.

[@Jack9N]

Pete Darby but they don’t Always attack... I surf a lot and spear fish occasionally , you obviously dive a bit, but how many times have you seen bulls and tigers?.. even if they’re hungry it’s generally juvenile sharks who bite into a human.you’d have to be pretty unlucky... also I’m talking about east coast Aus. We don’t have orcas.. most likely things are a little different where I’m from

[@luceinbattaglia9425]

@Pete Darby wow! Respect🙏

[@GTI8855]

I think, the water is too cold for bull sharks.

[@alendzombic4862]

Just a proof that great white sharks are not cold blooded killers. This man is careless and extremely lucky

[@user-hs4ih8zp7e]

That's actually exactly what they are. Except great whites are actually warm blooded.

[@robertlandry5676]

No crashing surf , too far away from shore🦈

[@KM-em9me]

The swimmer was being tracked by a great white. He was lucky to slip away. Gives you nightmares just looking at it.

[@clmcmusic]

Don’t understand why people have to swim that far from the beach and then alone…even the chance of an attack is low, but they still give it the best opportunity.

[@HereinLA213_Original]

Omg... Omg.... Oh my gawd!!

[@TheSinisterElf]

drone operator is thinking how much money he will make on you tube if he get a close up shark attack , they should have notified the swimmer immediately not wait for 2 min

[@WarmSpringsWarriors]

we are glad most attacks are curious efforts or mistaken identity

[@johnmullen1796]

Just proves how much we are not on their menu.

[@user-hs4ih8zp7e]

That proves nothing.

[@redwoods7370]

Lucky, thank heavens. Shark must not have been hungry.
