  • thats not a hammer this is a hammer....thats a screwdriver... oh i see youve played hammy screwdriver before then mate hehe....i dont y i wrote this but it felt good at the time

  • What an absolutely beautiful animal.

  • Wow them fish have heads like hammers

  • Poor Camera Man ;o

  • Very strange

  • @frenxmf smartest thing to do would just rise up slowly and also go to the side so ur getting away from them and going up

  • @UGENAdotORG Costa Ricans are so poor they will go extinct if they don't fin sharks. I think Canada should move into Costa Rica and save the sharks and govern the Hispanics as well

  • The truth is that Costa Rica is the worst country in Latin America in support for Shark Finning and massive fishing by the millions.

    The fishing industry is separate from the government and run by the shark finners, the shrimp trawlers, and the tuna seiners, so there is no reason to control the overfishing.

    Costa rica has the largest fleet of longline fishing boats, many boats laying 100 miles of lines, fishing sharks just for their fins.

    Studies show sharks have 40 years before extinction.

  • @ 1:56 Tell me, If you were almost out of oxygen in your oxygen tank and you saw all those sharks. What would you do?
