  • makos do not have fins

  • @2kJac10 You aren't serious?

  • couldnt it be a mako? they are similar to great whites and they have been confirmed in cornish waters i think..

  • @thermaldog Hey. It could well be a mako from the first clip. That or a Porbeagle.. They both have the ability to breach the water, the Porbeagle is a cousin of the Great White. The second clip is clearly a Basking shark though as labelled :)

  • 0:25 Basking Shark with it's distinctive dorsal fin. 

  • Very true. Also their metabolism keeps them a few degrees higher than that of the surrounding waters so lets hope that we can have a British white shark in my life time. If not South Africa here I come.

  • @typhoonda2 true say that and the walter tempture is very comfortable considering they have been seen in Alsaka,Mass Cananda i really hope to.2nd of all the Med is just round the corner so why not.

  • Not sure about the first, but the second looks like a basking shark. There have been 7 or so sightings around Britain in the last 50 odd years that probably were great whites but it's believed that their numbers are too few to have them visit regularly. The food is here and they can tolerate varying temperatures so fingers crossed.

  • its obviously a weaver fish??!!!!

  • whatever shark it is, as soon as I saw that fin id be out of the water!

  • @2kJac10 Only when the japs have finished  with them

  • there are 46 different kinds of shark (including the white shark) in the med so it doesn't seem unlikely that one or two of them would wonder into the english channel...

  • maybe its a penguin
