Joel & Suzie almost eaten by tiger shark

[alsh2010]

What a shame Joel & Suzie didn't get eaten by that shark... Would have made 2 morons less in this world... You don't deserve diving.

[THEOmarGarcia1]

I Just wasted 3:05 Of My Life On This Stupid Piece Of Shit Video:)

[shelhell]

I don't like the idea of making tigers any more interested in divers than necessary. This puts other divers, surfers, and swimmers at risk. How stupid and irresponsible.

[nickargent23]

All divers in this video should be banned from diving - they have shown absolutely no respect whatsoever to the tiger or the coral. PIGS!

[kmkfiction2]

Several thoughts. First of all, this Tiger is behaving in a very "interested" way. I'm sure she has been to many, many "free handout" shark dives before and was just looking for chum. Still, hard to think it isn't a Markus Groh-type attack in the making. NOT because of the physical contact (like bears, sharks see unarmed humans as harmless), but because a hungry shark might eat a person due to basic hunger. Generalist feeders will eat ANYTHING- including us, especially after a long migration.

[dj17q]

What a load of bullshit. In no way the shark was even that close from eating divers. It is merely going after the bait. This kind of bullshit is one of many reasons why people are afraid of sharks hence not giving a damn more than 100 millions sharks are slaughtered every year. Change the title name. Thank you.

[TradedSorrows]

@dj17q I'm no shark expert, but I do know when that white film goes over their eyes they are going into predatory mode, along with the fact it was circling around them despite the divers trying to aim it away and the shark actually opening its mouth very close to a diver is fairly good evidence to me it was trying to attack them. So before you attack a video maybe you should watch the whole thing and use that brain stem for something other than trolling.

[dj17q]

@TradedSorrows Ho ho ho, classic comeback for someone who think he knows about shark, and honestly must u use the word troll? I mean, I could said the same thing about you kiddo? Or you only used that word just to score a ripper sort of a point. Firstly, what make u think you know about sharks than I do? This is, what, coming from someone who hasnt grown out from puberty yet yeah? Ok if you must know, I have been involved with sharks for 30 years but it doesnt mean squat to u isnt it?

[dj17q]

@TradedSorrows Secondly, you're just a scaredy cat not knowing a bloody thing about sharks. U simply assume it going to attack cos it simply open its mouth? What a crock of bull. I suggest, you to stop talking nonsense and perhaps try and learn a bit more about sharks instead of attacking people who u think are dickheads just cos all the sudden you wanted to feel like a superman. Is that it chump? Is that what u want from this conversation? Perhaps u need to go away and grow a bit more hair?

[TradedSorrows]

@dj17q lolumad? Yeah I don't know shit about sharks, but I doubt anyone who gets mad about something so trivial and doesn't say anything to disprove the given points probably doesn't either. And from the looks of your spelling and grammar you are probably a kid. I mean seriously if I worked with sharks for 30 years and someone said 'you are wrong' I wouldn't go personally attack them, I would post some links to prove them wrong.

[dj17q]

@TradedSorrows Typical. Now you're mumbling about how poor my english when the fact you started about something else. So typical for someone who got nothin else to say.....Yeah, if you got nothin else then yeah, off you go. Run along with imagination.

[dj17q]

@TradedSorrows By the way, yeah I'm mad as hell but it seem you're changing subject to disguise the biggest cock up you just did. So again, run along, play with ur imagination.

[keilTHErapper]

what the hell dude you dont do crap like that stoopid shit

[thechicat]

That is definitely a tiger shark!

[sunshineindustries]

I agree that this shark is likely used to being fed and it was WAY too interested in the divers. The one guy touching her was keeping her away from the other divers to avoid an attack. He is likely one of the people feeding her on a regular basis. And yes, that IS a tiger, not a nurse.

[Rockstardh]

fucked retard idiots show some respect

[devi2610]

some of the most awkward, destructive, and idiotic underwater footage ever. As a PADI instructor, I would have forcibly taken them out of the water one by one. Destroying the coral, molesting an apex predator, you give divers everywhere a bad name. you should feel ashamed

[MassObliterator]

Wouldn't it be cool if sharks, especially the deadly 3 could be as friendly and docile as dolphines?

[divernick1]

a lot of idiot´s

[anabolic79]

man you guys are crazy!

[zachary34storm]

Dude that was a f****** close one

[kezzles70]

I had to sign up to comment on this video as its disgraceful-they should have their PADI certs taken off them and banned from diving! The poor shark I wish he had eaten them!!!

[dunno414]

@kezzles70 why would you say something like that? that would be like me saying that you should be eaten by whatevr shark you dive with just because you are crazy enough to get into the water with a predatory fish that size.

[angrycomenter]

lol when hes laughing he sounds like a red neck because of the oxygen tank

[resist0224]

a=how were they almost eaten

[valjew]

it only tried to bite them 3 or 4 times and it didnt try very hard. if they wouldnt have had experienced shark handlers with them someone would have been losing an arm

[dukezone69]

Sensational! Where was this taken? Amazing that it was so docile Tigers are so ferocious normally don't normally need an excuse to attack but judging by the plethora of fish about I'd say it is well fed even though they prefer to eat turtles or mammals and other larger creatures. So where was this???

[TwinVulcan]

Hey, look a shark. Let's poke it.

[archietherobot]

At first I would think this is harrasment, nowhere is a sign that says that this tigershark wants to be touched by a large group of divers.

But on the other hand, this tigershark lives in freedom and can swim away (or bite someone!) whenever it wants so apparently it isn't bothered by these divers. Although personally I always dive by the rule of not touching anything that lives..

[cynik1ll]

This video should be renamed to 'Some moron dives abuse a Shark'

[grindmaggots666]

why does the video say someone almost being eaten by a shark? it was nothing like that in the movie, change the title. anyway, these people sure do have the guts to dive and poke on a big tiger shark.

[SCOTTISHFILMFAN]

fuck that for a carry on - no way would you catch me in the water with a very large shark :)

[hazzeygeeboi]

what the hell do you expect? god if i were that shark trust me you would have been eaten at the beginning i=of the video.....and not in a nice way! u r totally corwding that shark...prodding it and poking it who do you think you are!!!!?????

[Azmorghiel]

At 2:20 you can clearly see the stripes. This is clearly a large tiger shark. I wouldn't get within 50 feet of one of these in the ocean if I could help it...

[corneydoggirl]

if that guy didn't keep pushing the shark away, it would have deff would have bitten one of them

[micahj2]

This is a ridiculous video.  If that shark had bitten one of those idiots, then it would have been a big deal and people freaking out because there was a "shark attack". Those divers were all but raping that poor animal. A Tiger isn't a house cat - you don't pet it and touch its nose. Incredible.

[A1L9L9A0N]

Sharks are the apex perators of the ocean but bare in mind humans are very very rarely on the menu. Show them respect and don't make a sudden movements(it can see very sudden movements as a threat) and you will be fine. Also if you find yourself being circled by sharksthen stay as still as humanly possible then they will go away(sharks are attracted to movement).

[A1L9L9A0N]

Shark aren't killing michines it's the media that makes people think they are. Diving with sharks is actually very safe.

[russianrick8403]

@A1L9L9A0N I must say that even though sharks are not the killing machines that they are often made out to be by the media, they are also not safe. That was a large Tiger shark with teeth and jaws sharp and strong enough to make short work of any shark suit and easily sever a limb. What these people were doing is coming very close to provoking an attack and they are just being reckless. You wouldn't go give a full grown grizzly bear a back rub.

[theagrafiotis]

they're lucky he wasn't hungry, it would be killing spree haha

[83Mysterio]

LOL at the underwater laughing.

In would want to do but but I think I would be scared. I do know that sharks aren´t killing machines and that they are not out to kill humans. I would rather be diving where there are sharks than surfing.

[k1w1fruitz]

AWESOME VIDEO!!! =) thanku

[disabilityquotescom]

Really great footage, it kind of looks like this was a tourist dive and two safety divers trying to keep a 15 ft Tiger away from the tourists. I'm all for tourist diving with reef sharks, but they were in danger without knowing all the risks. Tiger's are very curious sharks, and if it wants you there is nothing a safety diver is doing about it.

[21coops]

use are some crazy mo foes but cool stuff

[belgianhorst]

I feel this is dangerous, I mean, it is a top preditor and it has a lot of teeth. More respect for the animal would be apropriate. After all when darkness comes it becomes a near perfect hunter.

[Wilshy]

Very majestic creatures. People need to treat them with proper respect, once you enter the sea, you're in their world. I saw a 15 ft Tiger in Hawaii when I was snorkeling cause me and my friends were stupid enough to follow a Sea Turtle. Very humbling (and terrifying at that) . At :28 it might've had it's eyelids come up because you're hand was close to it's eyes or because it was thinking of taking away that hand o.0 (That's what they do right before they feed to protect their eyes.)

[budgettile]

all i kno is if u were touching me i would bite the shit out if u

[Brutahaley]

that is a tiger shark and yes they r always angry but depends in what situation u r in!

[wingnut10k]

alexyob,

she is a tiger, i have dived with both. Grey nurses have much more pointy noses and their teeth protrude out of their mouthes and they are generally much smaller than this one, i have never seen a grey nurse even close to this big. The tiger stripes on her side were VERY clear in real life, maybe its a little hard to see in the video.

[dunno414]

@wingnut10k  there is a vid on here of a 10 foot sand tiger at the bottom of an oil rig.

[alexyob]

This isn't even a Tiger shark, it's a Grey nurse. Tigers are far more ferocious than Great whites & no human could ever get this close to 1. Nurse sharks feed on small fish & rays etc. There's no evidence of 1 ever causing death to humans. Stupid tourists go & invade their natural habitat to try & look cool. Sorry, not impressed. For the record, the Grey Nurse is also called the Sand Tiger. (Note, not the Tiger shark). You should try cage diving with a real Tiger. Then Id really shake your hand

[scrumtralescence]

#1 - this is definitely a tiger shark.

#2 - a grey nurse and a sand tiger are NOT the same.

[tenou123]

1) That was absolutely amazing. I love these beautiful animals.

2) You people are crazy and that crazy'll get your face chewed off some day.

[aa9638]

this is so sad to see...I can't decide what bothers me more..

People make such a big deal out of 'man-eating' sharks then go do this stupid crap. Sharks don't need to be killed, people need to be taught. When you go in the ocean that's their world.

I feel so bad for the shark he's being pet like a freaking dog..too bad he doesn't take an arm off!

[calapanpo]

Wishing pain upon other humans for their curiosity? Sad...

PS the shark can swim away, quite fast actually. Clearly he/she is interested in the humans aswell.

[JonasBrothers4ever11]

ha....y do they keep on touching it?

[dstick1]

It's all funny till someone has an eye out LOL!!

[dilloss]

If only there was a way to kill them all

[dstick1]

LOL you mean the people??? Or the Shark LOL? This will go tits up one day....

[EngulfingWaves]

Tiger's, Oceanic Whitetips, Great White's, and Bullsharks are the big daddies of shark attacks. There are very few that actually consider humans prey, these are included. Though most prefer less bony meals!

this video is really awesome :)

[RobTheGamer]

That's a big damn Tiger Shark... I'm not afraid of reef sharks, blacktips, hell, even hammerheads, but I don't fuck around when there is a Tiger in the water. I'm OUT. You guys are nuts...

[spyguyhi]

The sharks in Beqa, Fiji are fed almost daily by hand over many years... this has not only mildly tamed the beast it has given the beast a bit of respect for the hands that feed her. Ever heard the term don't bite the hand that feeds you... she is swimming close to the divers one looking for the feeder diver and too she was probably fed quite a bit b4 all this commotion so she is no longer hungry...

[rockstr683]

I just waisted 3 minutes of my life watching this stupid video! I was waitng for some kind of aggressive behavior but shit, that was just plain stupid.

[ricca119]

This shark must be either sick or the diving company drugged it. Either way this is dangerously insane for anything to be in the water.

[1frozenfire1]

i agree with zinnpages comment-- you shouldnt be harassing othre animals

it was really cute though when the shark kept on looking up

[wondervirg]

stupid people ! incredible ...

[polarhercules]

fuk some people are so dumb

[towergrowler1]

stupid - i am a diver and dive with sharks but i give them respect - not like this muppets. To the response below spear it - that mature isnt it i am glad we are not like you.....

[JUNENFIONA]

you guys are asking for it so bad. Spear it!

[SopmodJack556762]

very nice

[moshe7158]

coool did u see it close its eyes when touched on nose. a great shark for tonic,nice 1 people

[dtoledo67]

Can somebody out there help me? I am currently learning English (nice language BTW). English has a relatively simple grammar but a very rich vocabulary. Which adjective would describe best the behavior of those divers? Pathetic or appalling?

[julemarie22]

stupid

[BradJC70]

This shark is very likely sick. It is not at all displaying normal response behaviour. i.e when the diver touches the tip of it's snout, it does not seem to respond to the electromagnetic stimulus this action would cause. It is moving lethargically and is much to calm in this situation which is to a shark, OVERLOADED with different types of stimuli. Air bubbles, multiple people, flashes, etc...

[kromen10]

I agree with you, that shark should have been snapping at limbs so close to it's mouth.

[zinnpage]

stupid. why do you think it is funny or cool to harass wildlife? you will all certainly get what you deserve if you keep doing such things.

[kristiemansfield]

Cool video,it seems to be curious.

[kaseyb3]

that video just blew me away- it was amazing- you guys got nuts! tiger shark is my favorite creature in the world-  wow to be that close- i would have shit

[glassycreekglassy]

i really hope that that suzie isn't my aunt suzie

she dives alot ,and takes too chances

[tonyshu9]

the sharks getting pissed lol

[RandomVideosUnite]

if u want to skip the broing part or u like looking at sharks well go to 2:23 if u want to see action!

[safeshark]

that does not look like a safe shark to be petting at all! Great video!

[5dominic4]

when does it happen?

[vaxxon1]

Actually, bull sharks have the highest recorded number of attacks.

[ScubaAddiction]

Wow! That is the closest I have seen her come to people. That is just a little bit insane. Just a little bit.

Outstanding video :)
