  • New Zealand is really bad at shark finning aswelll!

  • the only reason the government is not banning it its beacause they want money! >:(

    like this if you want to ban shark finning!

  • I WANT A SHARK SANDWICH!!!

    WHAT A FUCKING WASTE!!!!

    PEOPLE ARE STARVING FOR FUCK SAKE!!!!

  • Fuck sharks

  • @greatblueherron fuck you. i hope a million rats come and eat you up bit by bit

  • @theaakarsh Fuck rats too

  • What a cruel practice :(. We are a lot more a threat to sharks than sharks to us.

  • If I was a shark and I got dragged onto a boat like that, I would've bit one of them in the leg, not let go, and drag him down with me.

  • Seriously whats the probleme of everybody I talk about sharks there all like sharks are really dangerous they kill thousand of people every year or they say something like sharks are our predators!! WTF you have more chances to be struck by lightning then attacked by a shark come on people!!

  • It's so heartbreaking what happens to these beautifully misunderstood creatures. The thing is, a lot of people don't know what's happening and therefore not enough is being done. Imagine being kidnapped, having your arms and legs cut off then thrown onto the street to fend for yourself. This needs to stop.

  • Dear Trolls,

    Would you like it if a barbarian randomly went into your house and chopped off your ears, nose , mouth and legs and leave you there without medical care?

    I think not.

    Yours Trollily

  • fucking asian people!!!! why cant they stop this idiotic way of killing animals??!!! why cant they follow for example costa rica??!!

    this sons of bitches make me so acidly!!!!

  • Asiatic people who eat shark fins should get cut off their arms and legs and should be throw into the ocean. That makes me so angry! :!

  • Totally barbaric, and for what some soup or supposedly medicine. Should be banned

  • too bad the shark didn't bite their asshole heads first

  • 0:56

  • 0:57

  • That is the most disgusting and inhumane thing I have ever seen!!!!!

  • fuck this fuck this fuck this

  • Please visit my petition on change.org..Montreal City Hall-Ban the sale of all products and restaurant meals containing shark fins.

  • those bastards what it would like I would tell them through your mouth as you can afford to hurt them.

  • kinahanglan mahuman nako

  • @what77777 I never said it hurt them I said it was sad ... Learn to read ....

  • Abartig

  • homo asians

  • @TCOCharlesDexterWard RACIST!!

  • Those fuckers on the boat should have their arms and legs cut of and have the rest of their body thrown in the ocean.

  • beside sharks r killas

  • wateva shark finnin is in my traditon u cant just ban it!

  • this is beyond the saddest thing ive ever seen , no creature deserves this except the monsters doing this! who in the right mind can do this and sleep at night?!

  • @CoralCatastrophe7 Sharks don't have nociceptors and don't feel pain. Google it. Inform yourself.

  • @what77777 But do they need to actively rush water over their gills don't they? And they need their fins to move. So doesn't finning cause them to drown? I don't think that the pain the shark feels is the issue as much as rendering it a sinking vegetable after it's finned.

  • @RockChalk2009 They don't have nociceptors so they don't feel that like I just said... and since we have no qualms with chickens and cows and such getting slowly killed as dozens of youtube videos have shown us, I found the mass outrage over sharks possibly feeling their drowning a bit amusing.

  • @what77777 The only difference is a chicken or cow is butchered and parted out for food to feed families. Sharks fins are harvested just to "feed" the people who think they are special enough that they need a "delicacy" so expensive and "rare" that only they can afford.

  • @RockChalk2009 well I'll agree with that it's stupid to eat something because it's a delicacy, but I'll also say it just bugs me that chinese restaurants in my chinatown have gotten dozens of death threats because of this mass outrage, yet all these restaurants serving endangered atlantic bluefin tuna and caviar from sturgeons, etc get absolutely ZERO attention despite doing terrible shit to endangered species (most shark species that are finned are not endangered). Very selective society.

  • Comment removed

  • @what77777 I agree 100%. All people and corporations of the world need to better recognize and respect the species that are endangered and work to protect them before they're gone. The problem is that all that matters to anyone anymore is money. That's all there is to it. I'm sure if people were a delicacy somewhere, for the right price you could eat someone. It's pathetic. And rather or not the sharks are endangered, it's still sickening to demobilize them and let them suffer..

  • @what77777 I'm not a hardcore animal rights activist or anything. I realize that many other animals are killed in what some may see as cruel ways...but it's painfully obvious to absolutely anyone who watches the finnings that it is morally wrong. It would be much better if they would at least kill the poor creatures first if they are going to die either way. That's just my opinion though. I realize everyone's is different. And I have all the respect in the world for what you think.

  • If they cut the legs off pandas everyone would try to stop it, but since people are scared of sharks they turn a blind eye

  • when my class heard that this was the topic i chose to do a persuasive essay over they laughed. cant wait to show them this video and see who laughs then.

  • Sharks don't eat everything in their path. Shark finning is when people who are scared of sharks, pay men to illegally fish out, cut fins off , and push sharks back into the water to either die a long death, or be eaten by other sharks. Sharks only SOMETIMES bite people because they think we are seals.

  • Banning shark-finning alone will not be enough. It constitutes approximately only one third of the total threat to sharks from direct fisheries, with the greatest threat coming from bycatch (57.9%). One difference you can really make here at home is phasing out tuna products. Pelagic longlining of tuna and billfishes have on average 60% of their total catch as bycatch, which mainly includes sharks. Thus, we can help conserve both our endangered scombrid and shark species

  • every fucking piece of shit that thos shark finning should have there limbs cut of and be thrown overboard to the sharks!!

  • Great job, Costa Rica!

  • I am one of the people who watch shark week every year, Sharks are such a beautiful creature that does not deserve to die, i read some place that humans die more from a bee sting than a shark attack, so whoever thinks its better they are gone cuz they attack us, just remember when they do attack us we are stepping in there territory, they are just defending themselves. STOP SHARK FINNING!!!!

  • That's not how I do it.

  • your telling me there isnt enough ingredients and other shit to put in soup that we so desperatly need to add fckin shark fins. gimme a break.

  • What exacerbates this is the fact that the Costa Rican shark finning industry has ties with organized crime. Yes, there is a shark finning cartel in the underworld.

  • im doing a project for my law class on banning shark finning on the UN level. This is sooo wrong....and SHOULD be illegal in every country.....this world is just sick...

  • I don't fucking get why people HAVE to eat the fins. How about eating some chicken or something instead? Or eat some bread? It's not like shark fins are NEEDED in the human food at all... Bastards

  • very sad, horrible senseless people.

  • @msharkgirl1 its very cruel and it has to be stopped. These people get easy money for catching sharks and cut their fins off and throw them back in the ocean. Some are still alive, its just horrible and pathetic. The ones that are still alive just drown because they cant swim anymore. I really dont see why the government doesnt do anything about this. Any human with a brain can see that this is torture. If you TRY to cut a human being you go to prison, but killing sharks is ok...

  • Slants are worse than muslims.

  • I hate people. wtf.

  • this is senseless. i dont really care about the environment but i do have a problem with shit like this. if youre gonna kill the animal for food, use the entire beast. respect the kill. secondly, they could have made 3x as much from including the shark meat in their hunts instead of just fins.

  • Of course we should let the sharks extinct, and thereby cause the overpopulated predator fishes, and thereby induce the decline of coral reef, and thereby destroy the marine food web, and thereby....

    Posh, goodbye, Homo Sapiens...

  • @ElectroMagneticWeak what? who gives a shit about marines food? eat some else?

  • Every country needs to ban shark finning!

  • @JDivinorumVideo thumbs up for that.

  • @JDivinorumVideo How about Shark Oil? You think sharks are killed only for fins? Just like how CHICKENS are KILLED ONLY FOR KFC-WINGS right?

  • @blacktigertheone They throw the sharks back into the water because the fins are worth more than the shark. There is video evidence of this.

  • @JDivinorumVideo do you know how much $ the Shrak Oil worth of 500grams? $60 ! Do you know how much $ Shark Sushi worth? a tiny piece of meat on a small rice ball cost a good $1 minimum, depend on what country region you selling to .

    It's Naive to believe the fisherman will give away all 200kg of Valuable shark and only keep the Fin, are their boat not big enough to carry it back?

    And, Shark Oil is MASS PRODUCED, Shark Fins are not. Don;t wast any usable part please.

  • @blacktigertheone Why is there video evidence of sharks being thrown back into the water after taking their fins then?

  • @JDivinorumVideo Because we don't know who filmed this video, who are in this video, and what deal behind it. A video can become evidence only when the investigation about it is done, nobody knows if it's set-video, and nobody knows what happens after the film( did they pick the shark back or Are they asked to throw it in water and get payed for it? if not, why there's a filmer on board to film their "cruelty"? ).

  • @blacktigertheone A lot of undercover videos get made documenting cruelty at farms or rodeos too. It's not hard to film something if you want to. Chef Ramsay did a whole special about the Shark Fin Industry. They dry the fins out on top of buildings and they hid from him when he wanted to speak with someone.

  • @JDivinorumVideo ok i'll find to see

  • @JDivinorumVideo and other thing: even baby sharks are welcome for shark oil industry, but for shark fin, you need bigger sharks to have the fin big enough that it looks like noodle(that's what shark fin soup looks like). and also, The bigger and The Older the shark is, the better the fin. Big fin worth much much more than smaller ones. And if the fin is too small like smaller than our fist, it won't be a soup. Therefore, they are not interested in baby sharks or sharks have the fin too small.

  • Cant they at least kill them first, farkin hell

  • Just a quick fact: Sharks ATTACK 4-12 people a year with about 1 or 2 deaths, while coconuts falling off of coconut trees KILL around 14 people a year. So in 9 years some species of sharks have had a 90% decrease in population and they're one of the most important animals on Earth considering they keep the oceans in balance. Yet no one is trying to hunt the coconut tree.

  • This is horrific. I really don't have any words. There are petitions out there you can sign guys, please do so. This needs to stop.

  • That....was....I can't even find the words.

    Horrible.

    

  • FUckin IDIOT HUMANS! I wish you all fuckin DIE!!!! this planet will be a MUCH BETTER place with out you fuckin VIRUSES and PARASITES.

  • @Immaculite

    I think the planet might be screwed if you just removed one of the most prominent species from the ecosystem. Might run into overpopulation of cows or something....

  • 7 superstitious idiots thinks that shark fins can cure cancer.

  • Let's make chinamen a delicacy!!

  • @SeminarioMAE if cutting the fins off of live sharks is a cultural delicacy than everyone has the right to be racist to you.

  • @SuperJimmyproduction agreed 100%.

  • @SeminarioMAE why don't we cut of ur limbs its a delicacy for cannibals

  • @breatheless Because I'm not a shark maybe?

  • @SeminarioMAE cannibals eat humans idiot...its a delicacy for cannibals...so they can chop ur arm off and let u go as long as they can have their delicacy in their culture...i wrote 12 words and u cant read them right...why would cannibals eat sharks

  • @breatheless Why are you being mean to me?

  • @SeminarioMAE u think slaughtering animals and throwing them back to see for them to die only to have a delicacy..you don't think its cruel??plus if we dissagree to this inhumane way u think we are bigots as well as faggots which is offensive to h gay community.. thats why

  • @breatheless Whoa. WHOA. Hold the phone, who said faggots?

  • @SeminarioMAE i'm sorry u r right racist.....but how are we racist towards an animal?

  • @breatheless Who. said. faggots?

  • @breatheless Why'd you say faggots though?

  • @SeminarioMAE racism is when u hate another race than yours, it has nothing with insane food habits. If I cut off ur balls and i want to make it as a delicacy, would u find it right? i mean do u think it is right to mutilate other living race & let them die slowly for a "delicacy"? A soup that frankly speaking has no taste at all, and is just a way to show off, that chinese are wealthy & nothing else. When a "delicacy" is going to wipe out a living race totally, I am calling this a genocide.

  • @SeminarioMAE It's not racist to be against something that has grown WAY out of control. It's one thing to kill an animal humanely and use it for it's meat, bones etc and use the fins to make soup. It's another to go around pulling these beautiful creatures out of the water, cutting off their fins and throwing them back to drown. Not to mention they use long lines and catch everything from dolphins to sea turtles...not just sharks.

  • @doe14 That ludicrous. Caught fish die from asphyxia just like finned sharks do, how is finning any worse than regular fishing in that respect?

  • @SeminarioMAE I never said I agreed with regular fishing so why would you just assume that? Though they aren't tortured by having their fins cut off then thrown back to die a painful death.

  • @doe14 Well, do you eat fish? They're left to suffocate just like the sharks are. The cause of death is identical in both caught fish and finned sharks.

  • @SeminarioMAE well fish population is not to be existent in 10 years like sharks

  • @SeminarioMAE No I do not eat fish and NO it's not identical you idiot. The sharks are TORTURED. I doubt fisherman sit there and cut all the fins off of their fish while they're still alive? No, they do not and I don't exactly agree with the way people go about fishing but I can't change that can I?

  • @doe14 You're the idiot here. What do the sharks die of, what do the fish die of?

  • @SeminarioMAE i suppose fish aren't that much better off, but there are A LOT more fish in the world. It doesn't make it right, but since there is so little money and thought going into the preservation and ethics of killing animals perhaps we should focus on one of the more important animals of the environment. killing the top predator off in a ecosystem = NOT a good idea. There are VERY little sharks left in the ocean after so many years of killing? just for a bowl of fin soup. pathetic.

  • @htko89 I agree with the overfishing argument 100%, I just can't get behind the emotional argument which is somewhat disingenuous given the fact that all fish suffer.

  • how would humans like if it they cut off there arms and legs and watch them struggle to survive

  • sorry its an eat or be eaten world

  • @jhoch5 For some bullshit delicacy fin soup, I ask you? In nature, animals eat and use every part. This is disgusting, this animal is tossed back into the sea to die slowly, eat or be eaten my ass.

  • @MsGreenmermaid and the shark most definitely is eaten by all kinds of animals that wouldn't be able to get such a delicious meal if it still had its fins

  • @jhoch5 you were JUST complaining on another video about the Japanese killing a lobster and using it entirely for its nutritional value, and it being inhumane, whereas in this video, you're justifying in destroying a shark's chance for survival in mother nature just for it's fins. Did you even see what happened to the shark after they finned it?! THEY KICKED IT AND DIDN'T CARE FOR IT. This is INHUMANE... you're a fucking hypocrite.

  • @CloudPhantomX of course its inhumane, its a shark, do you think that shark would politely sever your spinal cord before it ate you?

  • @jhoch5 are you trying to justify a shark eating a human vs. depriving a shark of it fins and then throwing it back into the ocean? Sharks only eat humans because they mistake us for their actual food. They would never eat us if they knew we were humans. Think before you comment because you clearly contradict yourself in different videos. Please, for the love of God, don't offer your opinions to anyone anymore. You're just proving yourself a bigger idiot than I originally thought.

  • @CloudPhantomX how do you know that? sharks are killing machines, they don't know anything, they can't think, if they smell blood, they eat whatever's in sight, they're monsters and should all be destroyed!

  • @jhoch5 You're the one proving that you can't think for yourself. Animals CAN think of themselves proven by the fact that they're able to provide necessities for themselves in mother nature. I guarantee you that if i were to put you in a forest(let alone the ocean) you wouldn't be nearly as effective as any other living animal in the area. Sharks are much more useful than an idiot such as yourself because they do actually their part for the environment. You should keep your thoughts to yourself

  • @CloudPhantomX uh, instincts aren't the same thing as cognitive thoughts? and I would probably be way more effective in a forest, seeing as I'm worlds smarter than anything that would be there, and unless there is a bear there, bigger too, also I have opposable thumbs and the ability to make tools to accomplish tasks

    why do you love animals more than your own species? go jump in the ocean and give a shark a hug if you love them so much

  • @jhoch5 LOL, you're arguments are just turning into desperate attempts into making yourself not look like an idiot. A lot of animals use strategies, and tactics to elude other animals or to catch prey. And I would be willing to bet you all the money in the world that your "intelligence" (something you're proving you don't have right now) wouldn't be enough to know what's edible to eat, how to catch food, or even know which places are safe to sleep at night.

  • @CloudPhantomX what kind of forests are we talking about here? where I'm from, right now there are wild blackberries and mountain blueberries with fruit, and the safest place to sleep is the ground, as the largest predator we get around here is coyotees, so yeah, it would be pretty easy to survive

  • mmm - I'm hungry.

  • surely politician-ass soup would taste better.  something to think about.

  • thisa actually made me cry. thats just so horrible!

  • This is sickening and cruel, fins cut of and kicked back into the ocean to die a slow death, even seen to be trying to swim after all this torture. Disgusting.

  • People fail to realize how important sharks are to our ocean's ecosystem. Sharks are the apex predators of the oceans; they can also help to control the ocean's population of smaller creatures that; if their population increases over the natural carrying capacity: coral, kelp gardens and small crustaceans (shrimp/crabs) can be eaten away to the point where the eco-enviornment of the Earth's oceans collapses and not only the ocean's creatures will be affected, but also land animals and us humans.

  • Sharks may not be the cutest things in the world, but does that mean we should ignore their plight? I hear so many people shouting "Save teh pandas!!!!1111!!!!" but nobody giving a crap for sharks. Our entire marine ecosystem relies on them. The ocean ecosystem is so well balanced and perfected that even the slightest change can erect a myriad of consequences.

    Shark fin soup isn't even good. Some even believe is causes cancer, and you can take that to the bank.

  • Aw man, this is heartbreaking. Poor shark, man.

  • Cut it into chunks and dump the remnants into the sea hahahaha

  • I wanna job on the finning vessel. I like that. Great. Kill the sea killers

  • why do humans feel they have a right to do this? seeing things like this make me so angry and upset and disgusted that i am part of the human race.

  • These shark destroying assclowns deserve to be shot ! Not before their arms and legs are torn from their bodies though

  • huge waste, can they not eat the whole shark . . . rather then only using the fins, big big waste.

  • humans should be dead.. 

  • 1:20 WTF DID THEY CUT HIS HEAD LIKE 2/3 OF THE WAY OFF!!!?!?!?!?

    THOSE LITTLE BASTERS I WILL BIT YOUR DICKS OFF WROOOOARRR!!!!

  • man müsste deren füße und hände abhacken und die fischer ind wasser tretten !

  • B@$t@rd$...how would u feel if someone do that to your dicks???

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • Its the fucking Chinese, it's supposed to get their little dicks hard,don't we have enough chinese and a shortage of sharks?

  • @flattop44sc Well trust me it isnt helping there little dicks those stay at the same size

  • this guys are very stupid!

  • I don't know what it is about Asian culture and their absolute, complete disregard for animal welfare. Many cultures tolerate animal cruelty but asia's love sweet tooth for endangered animals is threatening the bio diversity of the planet.

  • i literally gagged when i saw this. seriously wtf is wrong with people?! they dragged the shark out of the water like pussies because they're not man enough to take it on in the water.

  • This must be stopped, because millions of sharks a year are killed JUST for their fins >:(

  • fuck you u stupid cunts wtf is ur problem

  • Als ich dieses Video gesehen habe, musste ich heulen. Wir Menschen machen alles kaputt ;( D;

  • mean sharks are hella cute

  • 1:16 OMFG!!! if you're gonna do it, atleast do it to where the shark actually has a chance to live you dicks! dont just cut their fn heads off!!!

  • no one cares about anything these days, they just do whatever they want to...wat a shame! the only people who care, which i think they care too much are, these emotional hippies, lol. theres a video of them called "emotional hippies crying over dead trees parody" its so funny, but their the only ones who care (too much though)

  • @sis4949GiRL i know its random but...it kinda goes with what i was saying...sorta

  • lol natural selection. we humans are the top predators

  • ;_; Poor things! D:

    And all people ever worry about are Wolves XP

  • Damn I did not know that these people are so cruel to the sharks and why would they do such a thing by cutting their fins off. That how they make shark fin soup I guess...

  • What you are seeing is what will really kill the planet, not "climate change". Without the apex predators the ocean will die and then so will we.

  • pretty cruel, but something in the sea is bound to finnish it off

  • I cant wait until a great white sharks jumps on a boat like this one and rips up the fisherman limb by limb

  • no point of wasting all of that meat off the side of the shark... i love shark, but i follow the Flordia State Laws and shark is very good. but theres no point of wasting ALL of that wonderfull meat off of the side of the shark... skark fetellets, shark steak. i luv it. its just, why are they wasting all that meat. ill never understand :(

  • @Jomasterhns because shark meat now sells for $0.20/kg, whereas the fins are worth 850 times as much ($170/kg). In Hong Kong they can reach up to $500/kg, 2500 times as much as the meat.

    because humans are greedy...

  • @burk3boys the china men are souless assholes

  • Cows, chickens, pigs are common because they are bred for meat and poultry, they wouldn';t be in the fields otherwise, and treated humanely.

    Sharks, like Dolphins and Whales, are wild animals, and are being killed in the most horrific way possible, with the maximum amount of pain and suffering.

    You may have no empathy with animals, but the rest of the world hates you for it. JUst stop these please!!

  • @mykingdomforanus im not against eating gods creations, but only killing for the sake of their fins? they should do something about that !!

  • MOTHER FUCKERS BASTARDS

  • @Rickyboy555 ha! those were my EXACT words too!

  • Don't get me wrong, I think hunting any animal is no big deal (Even sharks) so long as it is done within the ability of the animals to survive and reproduce. The mass slaughter that is going on here, is going on to quickly for the sharks to really come back from. At the rate its going they'll be gone before long-- even the gentle whale sharks, which, technically, aren't even sharks and are my favorite next to the tiger sharks..

  • You know there was a fishing society who tried to whipe out the population of tiger sharks around their coast. In doing so, they nearly killed themselves. See, the tiger shark kept the fish eating reef shark in control. Without him, there was no one to stop the population from exploding, thus the fish were sadly eaten to quickly for them to reproduce. NOW, imagine that on a much much larger scale. This is what your doing by killing the sharks. Your facking up the entire ocean system.

  • @icemanNO1 fag to the tenth power lol

  • @icemanNO1 fag

  • sharks are stupid ugly and dangerous to humans. who cares

  • @PhuckHue2 Sharks kill only 5 people yearly, as opposed to humans who kill nearly 100 million sharks each year. Sharks have the ability to learn behaviors and remember experiences, so they are not stupid. And UGLY?!? Have you even SEEN a shark before?!? The way they move, the color of their eyes, the way they leap out of the water, everything about them is the epitome of grace, power, and beauty.

  • @blatherblather1 kill them all!
