Basking Shark Encounter

[R2CoreDA2]

Of course its not intimidating, when it has country music playing over it.

[Hairsthetics]

I understand these don't directly attack people, but what if you just happened to be in it's way, how would you get out of it once your in the mouth?

[zeldadespair]

I know they won't hurt me, but fuck that!

[1982Reagan]

Just imagen how scary it would be to be engulfed by one on accident!

[oahusquid]

Nice!

[kclite]

OMG I WOULD OF SHITTED IN THE WATER IF THEY PASS ME SO CLOSE AND MANY OF THEM BUT WOW THERE REALLY BIG

[richardfps123]

@kclite don't worry, they are harmless

[hankinsonc]

wow it looks like they could swallow you whole!

[franknblunt]

Is this species gregarious or was this the mating season?

[PetrosArgonaut]

Hadn't realised they swam as a pack... Cool vid :-)

[TheLizard17]

They are so freaking big that if they ate you, you could probably just swim back out of their mouth..

[gianandri1989]

i'm wondering what would happen if you swam directly into that big mouth

[GreatStuffism]

Truly amazing until you get swallowed up by accident lol :)

[KiraJ202]

Oh my gosh, that is incredible! I would have loved to grab onto one and swim with it!

[Jidmo92]

Resembles the whale shark in every little way apart from size and shape of mouth. I hope to dive with them soon ^_^

[MillieBoBilly]

scare me sh*tless! but still cool.

[unsm1000]

i know they r harmless but am terrified of any big fish that has the word shark so i would just freeze and let it pass then be like wait i want to pet you!!!!!

[MrSpeaker1995]

they're really beautiful creatures, harmless, gentle and a regular UK visitor

[AngelofWolves13]

They're really kinda cute. But I'd be having a heart attack if I saw one swimming towards me, hahaha.

[456456animelover]

i would love to see this not on tv or comptur

[superepicfuntime]

they make me think of the worms from Dune

[alexdoomlord]

if that was me i will have a heartattck

[Degitalxxxde3trgfXXX]

@alexdoomlord Its alright cause there harmless, your more likely to get eaten by a swarm of eagles then a basking shark.

[TheGuitarchic102]

lol silly creatures, theyre so huge yet they eat microscopic plankton! lol

[AkujiTavarious]

Cutest shark in the history of sharks. XD I'm such a dork for thinking so.

[ogreeny]

@AkujiTavarious No, not a dork. If so then thats me dorked up too!

[casf120]

@ogreeny i know they eat plankton and same thing with whale sharks, but ive seen vids of some whale sharks being kinda curious with divers and chasing them and opening their mouths, lol be a lot scarier if a basking shark did it

[Roxocube101]

@AkujiTavarious No way... These sharks are absolutely beautiful :)

[ALMOSTf33rofpotatos]
