  • Damn humans r like a virus (quote from Agent smith) The earth will not survive long enuff we will eventually have to find a new planet even b4 the earth goes into the sun.

  • Poor sharks. How would the poachers like it if someone cuts off their arms and legs.

  • Shark Fins are delicious!!I eat a lot of those when i was in highschool..Shark Fins + Fried Rice...So delicious!!I missed those days!!

  • tastes about the same as any other fish, maybe not as strong as tuna or salmon. but it's just "cool" because you know it came from a shark.

  • @jeremias003 this is horrible.

  • I ran a Dive business in Costa Rica for 3 years... And I have got to say that this Video is full of B.S.... For starters the coast guard scene is totally fake...I have been aboard the Costa Rican Coast Guard Cutters... They have a 50cal on the bow and are itching to use it...They totally would have blown them out of the water... But this video shows them on some dudes fishing boat instead... It's funny how stupid and gullible people are if they see the name "National Geographic"...

  • so they kill an entire shark, just for the fin? wow..

  • oh yea just clip off his fin and let him live, just let him suffer. "You sir, are 100% retarded"

  • loll well I'm sorry if I'm "retarded" I was just curious about why they actually need to do that when there might be other alternatives, that's all.

  • what's so special about the fins?

  • bello, purtroppo in Italia nessuno produce documentari interessanti: solo reality e poca cultura.

  • It shows that some people do not care about nature. Which is really wrong.

  • If a shark eats a rare fish(which is complete BS), then that is part of the natural selection process.

    note: Sharks clean the oceans of dead and dying animals. The strong survive, the weak are eaten...rare or not.

  • Kudos to you for spreading the information. If sharks are killed off, the entire oceans will go to hell. It's like if you take cougars out of a forest area.

  • it may be really wasteful, but the principal of taking a shark is wrong. sharks don't just eat anything on sight. and sharks don't need to be controlled. if they eat an endangered species, 99/100 cases, whose fault is it they're endangered in the first place? ours.

    anyway, even finning sharks is retarded. shark's fin is actually tasteless i've heard

  • well if you think about it all raw fish are pretty much tastless its kinda the texture. i eat all kinds of sushi and fish like salmon flounder tuna all have no taste but i still love it haha

  • you don`t know what you talking about. you must be a fifth grader to post comment like this.grow up dude. rare fish species, it sounded so dump. sharks keep balance in the ocean. they are the doctors of the sea.

  • without sharks we will soon die as is the same with bees. but shark meat is not utilized properly and it is healthy. i'd rather be alive then have the choice of a debatably healthy meal. that's just me though

  • the whole world is fucked up

  • how did they get away??

  • Shark meet is not utilized to its full potential... It is good eating and very healthy... And we are not just talking about fin meat...

  • most shark meat is not good for you, which is beside the point as they will soon be gone and we won't be far after

  • ARE YOU AN IDIOT!

    They are a very important part of the food chain!!!!!!!!!

  • yeah without them you'd be dead. so i guess i'm talking to a real intelectual right now. fuck your closed mindedness

  • tyvm for the video and info!!

  • this remembers me of sharkwater scenes

  • same here and even the narrator mentioned how the camera guy was following his brother doing a documentary on illegal shark finning so I'm guessing it had something to do with Shark Water

  • I wish they'd stop fishing sharks. Thats messed up, it their ocean.

  • if the fishing was properly regulated, that would be good enough.  The wild fishing is the problem

  • damn good video thanks

  • lol

  • Better yet, why not feed you to the sharks?

    answer: Because sharks don't eat shit.

  • sharks dont like humans anyway. to them its like eating beans.

  • you crave too much for attention. Get a life

  • and you keep feeding me, thanks

  • You are a moron, YES!
