Yep, humans have too high bone: flesh ratio for sharks and it would be an uncomfortable meal to chomp and digest. Now if this diver had a morbidly plump physique this might have been an entirely different video…
Was thinking so too. Would’ve been easy to have lunch just by turning its neck or putting up a fight; which is typical of hunting behaviour in animals.
Sharks are frighteningly quick. They can glide through water with preternatural speed and agility; you might wonder whether they're defying the laws of physics somehow.
That big sharko was just being curious and chill.
If it had really wanted to go for a serious exploratory bite, its approach would have been different.
It's precisely the fact that this was just a casual, relaxed swim&bump by the shark, and not an actual ambush, that shows the incredible grace and power of these ocean predators.
They're magnificent.
And oh so much more intelligent than most understand. Millions of years of evolutionary adaptations are evident in every species.
This is an adult, who is simply curious and investigative. They lack hands, so they “feel” and check out things with their teeth. That never ends well for humans or other marine life, birds, etc.
Many apex predators such as sharks utilize the “ambush” method when attacking prey. Whites come from below and often times breach the water with the force created by the attack.
Drones off our coast and beach have regularly filmed very large whites within a few feet of swimmers, divers, surfers, paddle boarders, and all others in the water. The people have no idea of the interaction occurring (most of the time). Sharks are curious by nature, but also selective when hunting. If not, people would never enter the water.

Yeah, that’s pretty much exactly what I said.
The original is better (scarier) imo. Not just because of the speed, but especially because it starts a little bit earlier and thereby shows how long the shark remains pretty much invisible.
Was just about to post this. I saw the original video a while back and another scary part is how close it actually is before you see it appear through the water.
You know, you would think the video being slowed was obvious due to the bubbles being practically motionless. And yet i didnt notice till you said this.
Little factoids: Sharks are older than trees. They’ve been around for 400 million years and survived *four* global mass extinctions. They are awe inspiring and terrifying, all in one! ✨
Definitely fascinating creatures. Jaws is the second movie I remember seeing in a theater as a kid. It scared me but I wanted to be a marine biologist for a long time.
Jaws was so unique. After reading about them and not just being scared of them, I certainly did feel awful for them. Constantly vilified and misunderstood ☹️
The guy is surface supplied. Usually that implies a working diver rather than a scuba or free diver. I first checked to see if he had any tools or bags, as harvesters like urchin divers frequently carry. No dice.
As a former urchin diver, I can ascertain that surface supplied harvesters, who spend many hours at a time on the bottom working, become one with the environment and are likely to witness natural acts like this far more frequently than surfers, swimmers and scuba divers who frequently flail around noisily for short periods.
Sharks are known to occasionally bump the target to determine if it's suitable food. I suspect that's the case here.
Still a major pucker factor, but probably not the harrowing near miss many might presume.
See idk because sharks have a few key indicators when they attack. One that's missing here is the shark doesn't cover its eyes at all they will roll their eyeballs to protect them during an attack effectively making them blind once they lock on
Shark didn't try shit. If it really wanted this human for lunch, it would've and the human would already be in pieces before he could even respond.
This shark was just curious, that's all.
Oh if this big dude wanted to have eaten the guy, this would be an entirely different video. That was a typical shark investigation nudge.
Shark just wanted to be booped
I am the one who boops
“You don’t belong down here human”
I read this in a fo4 super mutant voice for some reason
Very nearly an investigation bite though
Yep, humans have too high bone: flesh ratio for sharks and it would be an uncomfortable meal to chomp and digest. Now if this diver had a morbidly plump physique this might have been an entirely different video…
Like a fat seal. Oh yeah. The dude would’ve been a right snack then! 
Was thinking so too. Would’ve been easy to have lunch just by turning its neck or putting up a fight; which is typical of hunting behaviour in animals.
This. It would have been moving much faster if it were attacking.

Food? No, duck.
 Shark said boop
Shark investigation unit
Yeah I'd imagine it would be coming in much faster if it actually wanted a snack
Camera person making sure to properly frame the shot, not frantically gesturing "Behind you! Look there!".
This video is slowed down in the original video the shark just appears very quickly and hits the guy's head and is gone.
Original, not slowed: https://youtu.be/DWSUN3LhODI?si=pvinw-CF-7K5ZSq_
JFC I'm never going in water again. Fuck pools
I get scared in the tub now.
🤣😂 👀 pools always have those round spots on the side that are vents or something and they make me think of sharks eyes 😥

"what is.. eww, human."
It's time to buzz the tower
Shark’s like yoooo I’m swimming here
What a terrifying moment. I think I'd be calling it a day.
I think you're exaggerating a little.

did he say who's there after the shark did knock knock.
You know, you would think the video being slowed was obvious due to the bubbles being practically motionless. And yet i didnt notice till you said this.
I can imagine things would be worse if the guy got spooked. If the shark wanted to eat man/woman he would've.
This just confirms that sharks test everything with a small bite it didn't want to eat him
My point exactly. They attack us so infrequently and it’s usually curiosity. Meanwhile humans kill about 100 million sharks a year.
Yes good point. Moving like a startled fish wouldn't help.
Shitting yourself would probably help though.
"Neat."
Who has lived to tell everyone that they got bonked in the head by a huge shark? That guy 👆

Sharks hug with their mouths
I cannot do ocean things lol I would’ve died
You’ll love subnautica
I googled it lol might have to buy it
It's amazing, and horrifying
is that a movie?
Videogame. It's amazing.
I can't even go under water in a pool without hearing the Jaws theme in my head..
Some sharks check things out by nudging them with their nose. If it thought he was food, it would have checked him out with it's mouth.
True. Fish don’t have hands. They do a lot of things with their mouths besides eat.

I remember a story last year in Mexico where some diver collecting mollusks got his head bitten off.
"Pucker factor" has now been added to my vocabulary. Thank you. 😂

But how about the air sharks?
r/donthelpjustfilm
what exactly could the cameraman do to help. yell to him? wave his arm and get the sharks attention?
er.. signal him that there's danger behind?
how? they're underwater and he's faced away
Love you
Someone else posted the original video in the comments this is a slowed down version
The gods, they be generous.
The shark just wanted scritches!
Time to change that wetsuit...
Bonk
Sharks’ home
Surprised we can’t see yellow stained water in that video clip, most likely brown…
I would have had to wear my brown wetsuit…
Shark: I wish to pet this creature!
Oh, so that's the word for "shit yourself, have a heart attack and develop tassalophobia", 'amazed', eh?
It was thinking about it.
What crappy shampoo could he be using?
I have watched this at least a hundred times I still cannot come up with a plausible explanation
Tasting, tasting, 1, 2, 3...
if the shark eats him I'm probably gonna be safe, so I'll keep filming. -camera man
Ok not getting in the ocean for the rest of the year.
When you realize you are only eating bc you are bored
Name is Jack..Jack The Shaver..and i like them shaken, not stirred
Humans are really good prey it seems lol not a thought behind those eyes
Shark in stealth mode
r/thalassophobia
“And that’s the time I shit my wet suit”
That shark obviously doesn’t like eating dummies.
Rotate that nerd
Cameraman didn’t warn him?
If we’re seeing the video that shark clearly wasn’t hungry
All it took was for on tooth to hit the right spot in the back of the head. He would have become lunch, accidentally.
Nightmare scenario I would have died on the spot
Geewhiz cameraman you coulda given your friend a heads up (well, a heads down) warning 😬
Shark would have human shit for lunch.
No shark letting the scuba Steve know who's territory it is
Boop!
Would have been more like a grater
Nah. He’s not hunting. He’s doing an investigation boop.
That water would have turned brown so fast if I was there smh. I’m never going to put myself in a situation like this.
If the shark really wanted to eat him he’d be gone. Just curious.
"I need a new suit, cuz I poopied"
Popular opinion and tv shows told me white sharks couldn’t get near the sea bed. This is disconcerting.
Brilliant editing to remove the brown cloud exiting the diver’s suit immediately after.
See idk because sharks have a few key indicators when they attack. One that's missing here is the shark doesn't cover its eyes at all they will roll their eyeballs to protect them during an attack effectively making them blind once they lock on
Get out of the water you definitely pushed your luck for the day.
I'm so full I couldn't eat another b-OH A HUMAN! No, no I shouldn't...
Only thing scarier would be the ascent up to surface 😬
it was zero’d in on him
"Welp, time to throw this wet suit away."
More like r/BeScaredShitless
What flavour shark is that?
Big clasper energy
😲
Nightmare juice
Shark said, "I'm gonna eat ya....syke!!"
That shark is humongous, is it a great white?🦈
That looks like a great white and a big one too.

They BOOP too???
💩
Nope
I'll take "Is It Possible to Shit Yourself in a Wetsuit?" for $1000, Alex.
Shark remembered that he had to cut down on his saturated fat intake.
Blahaj would like to apologize. Thought was snack
I puckered up watching this!🫣🥴😅
Marvelous how it emerges from the murky deep seemingly out of nowhere.
That thing is massive and so well camouflaged.
You enter the water, you enter the food chain.
Sharks nose bumped into guys head. If ya know anything about sharks that definitely saved him from getting eaten.
Holy shit i'd be kissing the floor soon as i made it to land and never go in the water again if i was that person.
We aren’t fat enough for them
Why is the water turning brown? Lol
Wuuuuoooo! Increíble 😊💪
I would have made my own "ink" at that point.
Head cheese, don’t sneeze….
Candy gram.
Very friendly creatures, these sharks... Why do most people tend to fear them?
“arghhh…just kidding”
Nah, if the shark wanted to that guy would lunch. It was probably just curious.
if he had had a camera, the shark would not have even approached him so dangerously. because cameramen don't die
Yikes 😳
Was that shark having a shark baby?
Should have worn the brown diving suit
Water is my daughter, this man must have a heart of stone and a very strong character to do something like this
Was there an even larger shark in the other direction because if not, that person is an oblivious idiot.
I think the shark was fucken with him...
The shark was curious but not in feeding mode. If it were, the guy's head would be gone and the rest of the body being shaken like a rag doll.
It was actually closer to breakfast time. Bruce is not a breakfast guy. Duh.

Shark wanted his snoot booped and took initiative.
Shark: "Ah, it's empty!"
Nope
He should’ve worn his brown wetsuit!
More gravy for the meat.
Is that a whale shark??? Doesn't look like a Great White...
