Freediving with Great White Sharks - Ocean Encounters

[Paka1918]

Beautiful animal.

[theoutremerlibrary]

EXCELLENT - In a sea of stupidity , ignorance , cowardice and apathy . There are a precious few noble souls with the intelligence and courage to reach out to OUR world . Good for you !

[ronejr766]

I was that close to a pool shark once...it changed my life man.

[apneagary]

Great film, one chilled out Great White, but seriously these are not the man eaters us humans perceive them to be. Stop shark finning, and don't eat in restaurants that sell shark fin soup...!

[infamousmercer]

The 16 people who disliked this video should be shot in the face

[myGodsAreAliens]

It's a great white shark..... They don't give a shit if your human or not... Anything with meat on the bones is an essential meal

[lampreysonaboat]

@myGodsAreAliens

thats not how things work at all

[myGodsAreAliens]

But what the divers didn't know is that these sharks had just eatin right before they shot this video lol...... Come back in a day and do it again I'm sure someone's gonna next on the menu... These sharks are just waiting to get hungry again.

[Skindoggiedog]

Fuck. That.

[midu914]

I am amazed and freaked out by this...

[HBCult]

God I hope he didn't cut himself shaving that morning haha

[DarkEyedBlues]

as i assume pissing yourself is something that would get the sharks attention, i do not think i would do well in a similar situation

[legogelo]

like a boss

[ShockSta123]

what a nutter !

[hopestoohighh]

that shit CRAY

[chaosopher23]

Heh heh heh... you think you did that for one reason or another, but those sharks were simply smiling for the camera. It was good PR for the sharks, getting to know humans as generally not out to get them. A diplomat from the sharks might be seen at the UN in a few years, with the message to stop killing them and make peace.

[Albacorewing]

Sooner or later, one of those sharks will bite like hell.

[tbacile]

I thought it was interesting that the camera angle peered downward every so often. Great Whites love to attack with quick bursts upward when prey is above them. That would be a truly horrific few seconds to see the shark glide off into the distance and out of sight... then a few moments later you glance down and see the shark propelling at high speed up at you.

[trangenusa]

They were probably carrying the new shark repellent just in case, hand activated, either electrical impulse, the other one is smell of shark death repells them, scent of another dead shark repells ALL sharks, just discovered new repellent, better than the electrical one, LOL saw it on discovery Channel, LOL

[ising2uall]

OK, well that is just crazy.

[sneakyferret]

lame ass shark

[s0Ez3]

Proves they're not MAN-EATERS.

[usegatto]

man, computer graphics is getting better every day ...

[Bullseye5477]

Drugged.

[margosalvador]

Nothing to fear but fear its-self. Great job on this guys... It was not very long ago that humans thought dolphins were man eaters too. A little education goes a long way. No this is not something every one can or should do. But what you miss is the mutual respect. If you noticed a very relaxed sealion also enjoying the moment as well. No one is armed.

[rfox1384]

whats with the porno music?

[johnnymassacre]

Dumbest thing you could ever do!

[memenmemen]

this music is annoying, so i stopped after 5 seconds.

[DJSpinoza]

Love the relaxing sound track .. let's see what happens when we dump a couple of gallons of blood and offal into the water, just for fun.

[FrontCortex]

WOW, Beautiful, Amazing, Brave! Jealous! Thank you!

I'm a Bush Diver (Bill Bush, UMC) and have been dreaming of discarding my stressful Mid-Continent rat-race life and moving to Yucatan, or somewhere tropical and cheap to live and spending every day in the ocean doing something amazing like this. Please encourage me!

[Ema2034]

Diving with white sharks that's fucking SMART!!!!

[PUNISHERUltra]

Ron and Valerie Taylor helped perpetuate a scam against such sharks for media exploitation.

That being said, it is nevertherless an extremely dangerous creature and I would never get so close to it.

[deejaywatch]

very very nice one! where was it shot?

[JamieIsMyNameOrIsIt]

what is the name of the song plz

[X180SE]

The most interesting thing happens at 1:32 when the seal comes into the frame & turns toward the shark, both seemingly oblivious to each other. This is like a human encountering an In-N-Out burger & not taking a bite. It’s obvious this fish is just taking a walk around the block after a big meal.

[MarmaladeTango]

@myY0UTUBEchanneI Actually it's not stupid. Sure it's taking a risk, as with any animal. But if you're those people who have seen sharks, worked with them for years, you know when and where it's safe to go in. Most other times in cage diving sharks are baited there, they're provoked. Here, he's just swimming along minding his own business.

[DoctorNickson]

how does he stay afloat with massive balls of steel?

[trangenusa]

@DoctorNickson Its called ballast, he needs just enough weights to not sink and not bounce to surface, LOL

[Lanskindotcom]

Nutz!!!

★ Lanskin_com for iPhone ★

[Clipworthy]

"misunderstood" predator? It just wasn't hungry

[kent606]

photoshop

[Blindar]

Don't great whites hunt sharks? Wtf is that seal at 1:40 doing? Just chillin.

[D3RANG3Dduelist]

Its the Stingrays you have to look out for.

[eleafo]

Humans are friends, not food.

[josedumani]

Photoshop

[nutshotable]

you guys are frekaing insane

[cantseeyou6]

wife pissed him off or why he is doing that?

[xkingxx00]

i want to ride it

[FantasygirlIX]

omg i said the same thing about the music!! hahaha! and these guys had a death wish :|

[dasoomer]

And this is why only white people get attacked by sharks kids...

[acrow1315]

Looks like he didn't find Nemo

[daivenluo]

just try to not look like a seal and you'll be fine

[yesi41911]

The Sea Looks Beautiful!

[Reebokanonymous]

I feel like the music is trying to make the sharks look sexy.

[ZTubeUserName]

who is crazier ,the seal or the man?

[TheStrapass]

fuck sharks

[Howisch92]

porn music ftw <3

[DiegoCreazy19]

Si Supiera nadar y obvio algo de buceo y los medio .. Si lo haría ! Saludos desde Chile :)

[ejayarts]

what the fuck is with this music? the moment with the shark got completely ruined. this is like watching a cat video.

[terence4dawin]

he's just taking a walk after eating 3 people...

[jhez5986]

Lots of stupid people commenting here saying that white shark was dangerous.. NO.. were more dangerous than them,, Stupid movie believer if you just know how calm and safe are they.. if you don't provoke...

[ColoradoFlyFisherMan]

If you could manage to sneak your thumb in the sharks ass, you will have managed to get your life time man card. You could choose to sit down every time you had to pee and no one could take away your man card. You would just say " doesnt matter, stuck my thumb in a great white's ass"

[iris1205ch]

@ColoradoFlyFisherMan you must still have your thumb still up yours

Nothing about this video was macho, so it must be your problem. Go grow a pair yourself, these guys are dancing with the sharks.

[YoshiTrips]

@iris1205ch hey, FUCK OFF

[trangenusa]

@ColoradoFlyFisherMan U R 2 FUNNY, LOL

[LeftyMcGee918]

This video should've been titled DEATHWISH

[Barlieboy]

@ThiTerada Steve Jobs is dead you insensitive prick!!!

[chucklesbike]

@Barlieboy ...and Tim Cook the new CEO of Apple is apparently giving away Ipads.

[BalldinhoVanessa]

The Shark probably just Finished eating a WHALE before these dudes jumped in the Ocean....

[bearPros]

I wasn't sure how I'd feel about this video but surprisingly it was beautiful. It really does help give a different perspective.

[sbowesuk]

I've seen things like this before and it's always only a matter of time before it ends in tears, or in this case ends with cocky diver being the shark's next meal. To say this is tempting fate is a massive understatement.

[filipmajnoon]

@sbowesuk not really. willian winram and fred buyle are considered to be quite unique in what they do down there. they've been doing it for years. you cant compare them to some jackass who jumps into the water with great whites in order to prove something.

[sbowesuk]

@filipmajnoon People said the exactly same things about John Bachar, and look what happened to him. Temping fate is tempting fate, even if it takes a while for the inevitable to happen.

[justtobe822]

This is beautiful. Sharks are some of the most amazing, elegant, and wonderful creatures on this earth. It is so unfortunate that they are so misunderstood because they really are exquisite.

[malaysianmetalhead]

That shark must be vegetarian.

[1irustim]

Man, white people crazy!!!



[ludwigvonsteampole1]

Wonderful.



[thekingbeyondthegate]

The Make A Wish Foundation really does great work

[IllestJ727]

That's scary as fuck!

[Artamis7777]

I see this as people who deal with wild bears, lions, tigers, and other large meat eating animals; they go out into the wild and show you that they are not the ruthless mass murderers out to get you like in movies, but that doesn't mean that you should should treat them like a common gold fish. Treat them the respect they deserve; they are big and they do eat meat and accidents do happen with death or injury and thats nature eat or die.

[PROFESSORSEVRUSSNAPE]

@Artamis7777 you said it ^.^ ..that is something i have tried to tell so many people ...hopefully someday ...they will listen when they finally see this kind of thing often enough

[Artamis7777]

@PROFESSORSEVRUSSNAPE Yes hopefully some day they will see what they really are.

=/ I hope it will be before they and so many others die out forever.

[joyjoybeans]

Those great whites are so magnificent! Love the video. Can't believe you just reached out and touched it! Wow!

[tubbypawz]

this is how you die

[Victor15P]

change the song to a creepy song and its a whole different story

[HellsHord]

for thousands of years evolution has made this one of the seas most efficient predators but a diver and some tranquil lounge music is gonna prove otherwise. this fish does'nt have 3 rows of razor sharp saw toothed teeth for nothing. I'm gonna go with evolution on this one.

[woodyb3]

The five seconds of the seals is more interesting than all the shark footage combined

[SG373]

Maybe the music score killed the shark's appetite! lol No seriously, I find sharks awesome and understand they never set out to hurt people!

[tenchiyurameshi]

only white people would do this

[HellsHord]

@tenchiyurameshi ya know....

[DrBillBushing]

Was diving as Wyland's buddy off Catalina Island when we had a 14 foot great white swim by. Have undoubtedly had several others approach in my 50 years of diving but they don't seem to find me menu-worthy!

[roberto4396]

Someone is feeling broken hearted.

[TheRd1515]

its a great white but a very small one

[tomatoface12]

@TheRd1515 I bet you wouldn't stick your hand in its very small mouth

[cr8tiveblock]

Stupid haole's! 

[Johnny5sWorld]

Its all fun and games till someone gets eaten.

[burninrock24]

/watch?v=nb8t3Lt8iJw

^^Much more appropriate music...

[Khadcabo]

This shark was probably just traveling or something, he is tryna get somewhere, he aint worried about you :)

[animegirl41661]

Sharks are beautiful creatures, and aren't as evil as people set them out to be.

[paradox2776]

I love how calm the music is. it sounds like the kind of music you hear playing in a hotel lounge

[rough2b]

another blind shark

[oDAoBOMBo]

Me: *sees baby shark (2 feet long)

Me: *Swims away screaming*

Grandmother: Pussy!

[innerpurpose]

must have just eaten..

[ibr248]

it looks like this shark is vegeterian, cuz even the other fish and seals are swimmimg around it without fear

[iamthebyron]

Amazing! Hopefully this video helps reduce the knee-jerk reaction of terror that so many people have when they think of sharks.

[MrBenson3436]

Man! I want to be free diving like that some day! I see people free Diving in BLUE HOLES on one breath of air! Its amazing!

[suspectx]

I'm sorry but these people are idiots! This is the equivalent of Timothy Treadwell's tragic (but understandable) death when he was eaten by a bear. Great White sharks though majestic and beautiful and amazing are NOT our lovable cuddly friends. No more than a Lion out in the wild or ANY other wild animal. These animals will KILL YOU!!!! A Great White shark will KILL YOU!!! There is no special code or secret serenade to make them docile, they will eat your face off if they get hungry enough.

[jimiBlost]

"Farewell and adieu to you fair Spanish Ladies..."

[tyhillman21]

This music is so chill.

[tycoon3r0]

good to know there are vegetarian white sharks out there

[thekingbeyondthegate]

@tycoon3r0 lol

[Gunnhfran2]

i nearly had heart attack watching that, i was like NO DONT STROKE IT

[MrGeorge69]

I presume that sharks act differently when looking for food! The seals and fish know when it's hungry or just chilling hence why they couldn't care less it was there... it was just chilling! i think that video would have turned out a little different if that shark was hungry! :p Ether was sir you have gigantic man balls!!!

And people can't get angry at sharks when they eat a human... we are the one that play in their dinner plates!!

[Tazzarinaa]

They need to make this illegal, sure Great Whites aren't out to chomp on site. But all it takes is for it to bite one in half, blood fills the water, then more great whites come smelling it and they end up making lunch of the other divers in the water too, then it's a media outcry and the sharks end up having to be killed too

[JCAznDude]

I look forward to watching more videos from you. I've always been fascinated by the seas. There's still so much mystery behind them. I figure we can learn the mysteries of life in our oceans. When I was a kid, I figured I wanted to be a marine biologist. But, my fears of the unknown hold me back. I hope your explorations can help me learn more without... danger? Good luck!

[armywife012205]

Balls of steel. He has them.

[aaronlee123456789]

this shark is most probably female and like to camwhore

[nenblom]

That was intense!

[donallogue11]

Now I realize all it takes not to be terrified of great whites is to play the most banal, goofy, muzak possible in the background. The evil mediocrity of the score bludgeoned the sharks into a state of dazed confusion.

[niceoboe]

@donallogue11 I may have met you in real life once. I've heard you're quite the celebrity.

[piebaldify]

helllllllyeahhhhh

[toomey11]

i bet u dint know u could slide the tabs about at the top of your page on google chrome

[reddwarfposse]

I don't want to know why the sharks don't eat them, I want to know how they hold their breath so long :)

[CdL3o]

he's just like omg stopp taking my picture guyzzz

[MomSauce]

So incredibly beautiful!! I'm so jealous. I'm definitely more concerned for that seal than I am for the people. I love how when this stuff is publicized, the headlines read "Brave Men Free Dive With Great Whites...No Cages!" Like it's some crazy, dangerous thing to do. News Flash: Sharks don't like to eat people. All shark "attacks" that happen are total accidents. These sharks are like, "hey cool dude...what's up? You good? I'm good." Anyway, phenomenal video. <3

[mickdukes]

@MomSauce Aw, c'mon, don't kid yourself. This is an awesome video, but these guys, while brave, were insanely lucky one of these big boys didn't take an investigative nibble. True, sharks aren't maneaters by nature, but you never can tell.

[WhoChrisLiu]

@mickdukes

+1

I never understand some people spend so much effort trying to figure out what these animals think, or do. As a human being I do things for no reasons all the time; like kick a a empty can or rock that I came across walking on the street for no reason, just because. Is it that hard to believe that sometimes a shark will bite/ eat a human being, mistaken identity or not, just for giggles? or sometimes just swim around not even paying heed? Its doing w/e it pleases.

[unicursalhex]

I see these guys ending up like the Grizzly man...

[amosisbeast]

It's like this beautiful creature is trying to put on an elegant show. Not being vicious and feeding while filmed. The goofy seal trying to steal the show at the end, is quite a comical turn of events. A+ for the presentation

[TheCornCobbers]

Clark Shark

[DerekRox202]

Guess he's not fucking hungry.  What is that idiot doing?!?!! A DAMN SHARK IS RIGHT THERE!

[TheAlienAssassin]

I'm surprised you guys didn't sink since you guys are carrying over 300 pounds of steel in your balls.

[3palomar2]

@TheAlienAssassin hahahaha good1

[ColDwight]

@TheAlienAssassin AGREED!!! more like 500 pounds tho!

[TBTunez]

@TheAlienAssassin didnt expect that man, haha.

[waverider038]

There was probably a huge whale carcass over to the right that we don't see.

[quadassio]

It's just something about the words "great" and "white" that give me a proud feeling. They just seem perfect together.

[waverider038]

@quadassio Ha ha ha! Nice!

[GravityIX]

@XtianFictionTV Well... is there any guarantee that there was only one shark in that area? There is no control over that...

[FutureVideos2013]

whats up with the porno music?

[heat4yoass]

Clearly they got lucky that shark was already full. They usually will attack you if they are the slightest bit hungry. Did anyone notice the seal just waltz by with the divers? Try that again on a random time when the Sharks are hungry, you'll become shark poop.

[tj11112222]

Thats at least a 10 foot shark. Balls of steel

[194flyingfish]

Beautiful. Color me jealous.

[jmulder355]

The song is called "Summer" the artist is Moby.

[123foreverladygaga]

maybe the shark was sleeping or somthin....lol..i ♥ sharks!

[riqriq81]

This is absolutely amazing! I personally would never do it, but it certainly helps shine a new lite on the creatures!!! I love this video!

[dmackler58]

1) how big are those sharks? 2) i would totally panic in the water with them.

[GizmoMofo7]

its probably a experimental hiphop instrumental, there's plenty of underground hiphop sample instrumentals that is slept on.

[Bornkilla174]

wth is the name of the song

[YoungBurr94]

i like the song whtz the name of it

[ncode03]

Good, they got a location where food is plentiful and the sharks are chilling around with a full belly. Its not crazy, its smart. Anything can happen though, so hats off to the swimmers for putting your bodies in the line

[luvbb23]

what song did you use in the video??

[InBradyITrust]

i could list you an indefinite amount of great songs...that song in particular is by steve jablonsky, protege of hans zimmer you twat.

[lovegirl5458]

Love the music... sounds extraordinary



[InBradyITrust]

You need real ethereal music, not this ghey sh!t. Try Bluesolar - The Island Awaits You (Chill). Don't use just any crap. Btw, where is the adult Great White?
