Dropped a GoPro Under the World's Most Dangerous Fishing Pier

Dropped a GoPro Under the World's Most Dangerous Fishing Pier

It's great to see so many healthy schools of fish and sharks living in what looks like unpolluted clear waters. Long may that last.

This is incredible. Coming from someone in the UK, it is amazing to see something that isn't a perch, bass, trout, puddle of oil, shopping cart, old boot.... what amazing wildlife. Still a massive nope fest from me. Ill just admire from afar 😂😅

That fish staring into the camera cracked me up. Thanks for sharing this incredible video! And also thank you for not setting it to music or filling the silence with unnecessary talking. Made it a more immersive (haha) watch.

I am a scuba diver and I also use a GoPro underwater man and I highly recommend getting an underwater case for your camera. The quality of your footage will improve 1000x because if the water is in direct contact with the lens quality drops significantly and it loses focus slightly. The case provides an air pocket between the water and the lens which does the job. I was just diving and the footage was as clear as on the surface with the case. Although as a content creator myself I can see why you wouldn't do it because the blur & worse quality adds a more ominous effect

it's amazing how good of shots you can get by just dangling a camera off a string. No fancy angles or techniques, just a camera on a string.

These camera shots were absolutely spectacular. The bio mass of life under this pier is breathtaking. Awesome work.

Note to self: Never, EVER swim at this pier.

It never fails to amaze me at how many people I see at the beach swimming by piers.

'Okaloosa Island' is an area on 'Santa Rosa Island', Florida. An 875-acre parcel of Santa Rosa Island with 3 miles of Gulf frontage. ~ Amazing video - Thank You again! Great videos. I served in the US Army as an Officer and for a few years I flew helicopters in to various bases around Florida. Visited here a few times. Brings back memories! Well Done - Be Safe out there folks. ~ Peace & Health to Us All.

As someone who has jumped off of piers in my younger days... dang was I lucky!! Beautiful videos. Thank you.

I used to swim in the ocean a lot and would go out pretty far. The day a shark swam into me was the last day. Haven't been in the ocean since, lol. No idea what it was, however, it was a good 7-9 feet. Longer than I am tall and I am 6'4". I would swim under the pier too.... Just not worth the risk for me now that I have kids. Sharks are incredible creatures though. I would like to go scuba diving sometime. If I am down there myself and able to see I will be good. Now knowing is another thing though. Have no clue until it's right there.

I've heard that sharks bump to check things out. I'm glad none of them thought your camera seemed worth a test bite. Great footage!!

Back in the 80's I spent many years night surfing below the Okaloosa Island pier. The lights from the pier lit up the ocean and incoming sets. One night I had a 6 foot hammerhead swim past my leg and I decided it was best to end that night of surfing.

It’s surprisingly clearer than I had initially expected! Beautiful clear blue waters with white porcelain sand. A stunning video !

[davidharris]

I know surfers love surfing near piers. I guess it creates a better wave but seeing those tigers would make a person think twice. Thanks for sharing!

[pheels]

I think the Northern territories in Australia would be more dangerous.

Add saltwater crocodiles and deadly jellyfish to tiger and bullsharks

[BotsWeekendCovers]

These piers should post underwater cameras for our entertainment as well as income!!! Great video man!

[meadmaker]

Amazing to see such vibrant, abundant sea life under that pier. Some of those shots are really fantastic. I suspect those sharks kept coming in toward the camera because they could sense its electromagnetic field. Never would've guessed there were so many down there, much less tigers. Bulls, yes. But tigers? Awesome to see. Thanks for sharing this.

There's a reason why people say not to swim near piers.

Perfect demonstration of that reason.

Beautiful natural footage of the ocean and it's inhabitants. I grew up around the ocean and it is an amazing adventure every day you get to see new things
