"I'm not sure why they are here?".. uhmm dude? those sharks should be asking you that kind of question...

[henryroland]

Man: annoying sharks constantly
Sharks: bites man
Man: they are killing machines!!

[robj]

People don't realise why sharks bite things. It's not because they're mindless killing machines! Sharks don't have hands so they investigate objects they're curious about with their mouths by biting it.

“They kill things for a living” well mate so do we

"She huge, she's massive!" Matilda is sensitive about her weight. That's why she biting at him.

As a marine biologist, I can confirm that it's a shark.

MOST INTENSE ENCOUNTERS

Shark: was curious and bites floatation device and sees its actually fun to bite so continues unintentionally hitting the cage with its body

Man: it was trying to KILL MEEE

[ileecwe]

what the hell y’all expect if you’re in their territory and they’re curious to see who or what is entering their homes? 🙄

[melaphiney]

In the first one I don’t like how he said, “he’s an easy target for the shark.” They’re not trying to kill you/hurt you. They bite and bump things when they’re curious of stuff and trying to figure what it is. If a shark was trying to kill him or hurt him he either pissed it off real bad, or it mistook him for one of the food they commonly eat. ://

"I don't know if this is such a brilliant idea, mate."

Ya think?

[jessica]

6:29 there is a hook on the side of it's mouth😭😭😭😭😭 poor shark

[freeway]

I feel bad for the shark he thought he had Meal nothing but metal

[asiapourner]

Omg the last one was so amazing! I would give anything to be there in his place. Sharks are such amazing and beautiful creatures, always give them the respect and space they deserve

[juliahaddon]

shark grabbing the tether: hello friends i'll be taking you on your tour today

Where is cow week more people die from cow than shark

[JoeyMartz]

I find it annoying how over the top their reactions are when the sharks investigate the cage.

[stephielulu]

Absolutely beautiful, stunning creatures. Leave them alone.

[INJUMAN]

Americans are obsessed with making as much noise as possible.

[Dantallus]

There is also a lot of cathartic activity and electrolysis going on in the water with the various metals and anodes from the running gear on the boat emitting quite a bit of electro-magnetic energy; the sharks are instinctively drawn to investigate with test bites.
