00:04:30,050 --> 00:04:26,699 and one of the quotes that gets used a 90 00:04:34,490 --> 00:04:30,060 lot when we talk about uh our planet is 91 00:04:36,530 --> 00:04:34,500 that we've we've mapped we've seen you 92 00:04:38,810 --> 00:04:36,540 know less than five percent of the 93 00:04:41,990 --> 00:04:38,820 oceans in the world and that's that's a 94 00:04:44,530 --> 00:04:42,000 mind-blowing number and I'm not even 95 00:04:47,749 --> 00:04:44,540 sure if it's that high right 96 00:04:50,510 --> 00:04:47,759 but when I was a kid 97 00:04:53,930 --> 00:04:50,520 I had a couple of uh experiences with 98 00:04:57,650 --> 00:04:53,940 sharks okay like direct like you know 99 00:05:00,530 --> 00:04:57,660 kind of stuff and and this is down in 100 00:05:03,110 --> 00:05:00,540 the Pacific Ocean in Central America and 101 00:05:08,689 --> 00:05:03,120 uh and I'm out sailing 102 00:05:10,370 --> 00:05:08,699 and off to my left I'm I'm I'm steering 103 00:05:13,010 --> 00:05:10,380 I forget what you call that when you're 104 00:05:16,490 --> 00:05:13,020 sailing right but I'm at the wheel 105 00:05:22,070 --> 00:05:16,500 and my dad is in front of me he is on 106 00:05:25,249 --> 00:05:22,080 the starboard side of the jib sale his 107 00:05:28,010 --> 00:05:25,259 back is to that the owner of the boat is 108 00:05:30,469 --> 00:05:28,020 down below deck I can see him in the 109 00:05:32,409 --> 00:05:30,479 galley I'm in the back it's the three of 110 00:05:35,689 --> 00:05:32,419 it's on the sailboat 111 00:05:37,730 --> 00:05:35,699 30-foot boat 33 foot decent sized 112 00:05:40,909 --> 00:05:37,740 sailboat and we're we're out we're doing 113 00:05:43,670 --> 00:05:40,919 our thing and then I'm going to guess 114 00:05:46,310 --> 00:05:43,680 and say a quarter mile 115 00:05:50,270 --> 00:05:46,320 somewhere between 100 yards and 400 116 00:05:51,710 --> 00:05:50,280 yards out you know out uh to on the port 117 00:05:54,590 --> 00:05:51,720 side my left 118 00:05:56,570 --> 00:05:54,600 this manta ray 119 00:05:59,810 --> 00:05:56,580 comes out of the water 120 00:06:02,450 --> 00:05:59,820 and and I don't know how big it is but 121 00:06:06,230 --> 00:06:02,460 it's bigger than the boat we are on okay 122 00:06:08,870 --> 00:06:06,240 wow and it catches the wind and it's 123 00:06:11,390 --> 00:06:08,880 coming towards me and its mouth you 124 00:06:13,010 --> 00:06:11,400 could have drove a car into its mouth 125 00:06:14,629 --> 00:06:13,020 all right I mean I'm looking right I 126 00:06:16,670 --> 00:06:14,639 could see the ribs on the inside of his 127 00:06:19,310 --> 00:06:16,680 mouth thing and then he goes back under 128 00:06:23,270 --> 00:06:19,320 the water and I never saw it again my 129 00:06:25,249 --> 00:06:23,280 point being it freaked me out that there 130 00:06:27,110 --> 00:06:25,259 is something like that and after that 131 00:06:28,370 --> 00:06:27,120 your head's on a swivel right you're 132 00:06:32,629 --> 00:06:28,380 just looking 133 00:06:36,770 --> 00:06:32,639 you don't know what is in the oceans and 134 00:06:40,249 --> 00:06:36,780 that thing was huge and and for me it 135 00:06:42,469 --> 00:06:40,259 was an experience of a lifetime we you 136 00:06:45,469 --> 00:06:42,479 know and and I never saw it again but 137 00:06:47,110 --> 00:06:45,479 there is stuff down there that we just 138 00:06:50,330 --> 00:06:47,120 don't have a clue about 139 00:06:53,150 --> 00:06:50,340 and when we talk about giant sharks or 140 00:06:56,210 --> 00:06:53,160 megalodons and Things They Live 141 00:06:58,249 --> 00:06:56,220 apparently forever right and that they 142 00:07:00,770 --> 00:06:58,259 don't need to come up they're not going 143 00:07:02,330 --> 00:07:00,780 to and we may never see them if they 144 00:07:04,730 --> 00:07:02,340 don't want to be found 145 00:07:07,189 --> 00:07:04,740 right 146 00:07:08,629 --> 00:07:07,199 um I don't know by the way the thing you 147 00:07:10,249 --> 00:07:08,639 said with the ribs with the manta ray 148 00:07:11,629 --> 00:07:10,259 that probably would have been its gills 149 00:07:14,350 --> 00:07:11,639 that you were seeing they have like 150 00:07:16,969 --> 00:07:14,360 gills Gill rakers 151 00:07:19,309 --> 00:07:16,979 they look like ribs yeah you would know 152 00:07:22,089 --> 00:07:19,319 better than me I just know that for that 153 00:07:24,830 --> 00:07:22,099 instant I looked right down its mouth 154 00:07:27,350 --> 00:07:24,840 which was huge 155 00:07:29,809 --> 00:07:27,360 I'm not sure it was it was 10 feet wide 156 00:07:31,370 --> 00:07:29,819 I guess that's crazy because I mean most 157 00:07:33,770 --> 00:07:31,380 manta rays don't get more than 20 feet 158 00:07:37,129 --> 00:07:33,780 wingspan so if you saw one that size 159 00:07:38,589 --> 00:07:37,139 that was a like a mutant Ray of mythical 160 00:07:42,890 --> 00:07:38,599 proportions 161 00:07:44,990 --> 00:07:42,900 it was crazy big it was crazy big 162 00:07:48,170 --> 00:07:45,000 um it's one of those stories right it's 163 00:07:50,570 --> 00:07:48,180 out at Sea it's my story and I'm gonna 164 00:07:51,830 --> 00:07:50,580 stick to it that's true but uh you were 165 00:07:53,029 --> 00:07:51,840 right when you said five percent but 166 00:07:55,370 --> 00:07:53,039 that's only five percent of the ocean 167 00:07:58,249 --> 00:07:55,380 floor it doesn't include the average of 168 00:08:00,830 --> 00:07:58,259 11 000 or so feet two plus miles of 169 00:08:02,749 --> 00:08:00,840 water above that ocean floor see what 170 00:08:05,029 --> 00:08:02,759 I'm saying so from a cubic perspective 171 00:08:09,409 --> 00:08:05,039 we've seen a grain of sand on a beach 172 00:08:12,290 --> 00:08:09,419 effectively of the ocean and and we all 173 00:08:14,390 --> 00:08:12,300 know it's it's it's deep and there are 174 00:08:17,390 --> 00:08:14,400 deep sections of it tonight we're going 175 00:08:18,909 --> 00:08:17,400 to be talking about giant sharks and and 176 00:08:23,270 --> 00:08:18,919 megalodon 177 00:08:25,969 --> 00:08:23,280 how how deep where's their favorite spot 178 00:08:28,070 --> 00:08:25,979 as far as depths go 179 00:08:29,650 --> 00:08:28,080 are we talking about the extinct 180 00:08:31,129 --> 00:08:29,660 characters 181 00:08:32,570 --> 00:08:31,139 megalodon or are you talking about 182 00:08:36,070 --> 00:08:32,580 sharks in general or what are we talking 183 00:08:38,990 --> 00:08:36,080 about here I'm confused 184 00:08:42,350 --> 00:08:39,000 that's a complicated question there well 185 00:08:44,870 --> 00:08:42,360 you see uh it's sort of it's sort of a 186 00:08:48,170 --> 00:08:44,880 complicated question when we're when 187 00:08:50,990 --> 00:08:48,180 we're talking about uh sharks we know 188 00:08:55,130 --> 00:08:51,000 that we see those on the shoreline and 189 00:08:58,130 --> 00:08:55,140 things but as the bigger sharks get do 190 00:09:00,590 --> 00:08:58,140 they like to get into deeper water and 191 00:09:03,230 --> 00:09:00,600 we don't necessarily make contact 192 00:09:05,630 --> 00:09:03,240 okay so well I think that depends on the 193 00:09:08,570 --> 00:09:05,640 species for example you get animals like 194 00:09:10,670 --> 00:09:08,580 uh six gills and sleeper sharks and 195 00:09:13,250 --> 00:09:10,680 stuff that are comfortable in extreme 196 00:09:14,930 --> 00:09:13,260 depths uh there was some video you 197 00:09:17,630 --> 00:09:14,940 probably seen where they were claiming 198 00:09:20,690 --> 00:09:17,640 it was a 60-foot Megalodon and really it 199 00:09:23,090 --> 00:09:20,700 was maybe a 25 or 30 foot uh six-year 200 00:09:25,850 --> 00:09:23,100 sleeper shark gnawing on a bait cage 201 00:09:28,550 --> 00:09:25,860 which is still in a men's shark but you 202 00:09:30,949 --> 00:09:28,560 see at that depth they're very lethargic 203 00:09:33,710 --> 00:09:30,959 they don't you know that fish is more of 204 00:09:35,810 --> 00:09:33,720 a scavenger at that point in that size 205 00:09:39,009 --> 00:09:35,820 Etc you're looking for 100 Predators I 206 00:09:41,389 --> 00:09:39,019 mean uh gosh Threshers go pretty deep 207 00:09:42,829 --> 00:09:41,399 for example that's why they have those 208 00:09:45,290 --> 00:09:42,839 huge eyes with their counter current 209 00:09:47,090 --> 00:09:45,300 heat exchangers so they can see and that 210 00:09:48,470 --> 00:09:47,100 kind of stuff come on 211 00:09:50,690 --> 00:09:48,480 um swordfish although that's not sharp 212 00:09:52,430 --> 00:09:50,700 but most of your sharks like white 213 00:09:53,870 --> 00:09:52,440 sharks makos things like that your 214 00:09:56,210 --> 00:09:53,880 pelagic fish 215 00:09:58,550 --> 00:09:56,220 um they tend to be more in warmer Waters 216 00:10:01,009 --> 00:09:58,560 they don't go super deep often 217 00:10:03,769 --> 00:10:01,019 um white sharks only are normally I mean 218 00:10:05,870 --> 00:10:03,779 they sometimes dive deep but 219 00:10:07,970 --> 00:10:05,880 it doesn't happen often I think like 220 00:10:10,550 --> 00:10:07,980 there's one instance for example of the 221 00:10:12,470 --> 00:10:10,560 farallons where killer whales killed a 222 00:10:14,449 --> 00:10:12,480 great white and then every white shark 223 00:10:16,490 --> 00:10:14,459 in the area disappeared for the rest of 224 00:10:17,990 --> 00:10:16,500 the season and they tracked one or two 225 00:10:19,970 --> 00:10:18,000 of them with trackers and they found out 226 00:10:21,949 --> 00:10:19,980 that once they realized one of their 227 00:10:24,769 --> 00:10:21,959 brothers had been taken down by orcas 228 00:10:26,570 --> 00:10:24,779 they all dive down to 1500 feet or 229 00:10:28,370 --> 00:10:26,580 something which is more than a worker 230 00:10:29,750 --> 00:10:28,380 can do in terms of hunting and they all 231 00:10:31,850 --> 00:10:29,760 swam to Hawaii 232 00:10:33,350 --> 00:10:31,860 so at that point they realized 233 00:10:34,910 --> 00:10:33,360 discretion was the better part of value 234 00:10:37,970 --> 00:10:34,920 and they ran away from their natural 235 00:10:39,710 --> 00:10:37,980 predator and so forth but I mean when 236 00:10:41,630 --> 00:10:39,720 you're talking about a shark like uh 237 00:10:44,030 --> 00:10:41,640 megalodon or any of the other extinct 238 00:10:45,650 --> 00:10:44,040 Mega two sharks most of those fish were 239 00:10:49,069 --> 00:10:45,660 tend to be tempered or warm water 240 00:10:51,290 --> 00:10:49,079 animals they would be more Coastal they 241 00:10:53,810 --> 00:10:51,300 would be in the upper part of the of the 242 00:10:55,910 --> 00:10:53,820 water column and they ate well 243 00:10:58,430 --> 00:10:55,920 especially Megalodon and such would feed 244 00:11:00,470 --> 00:10:58,440 on whales and things like that which are 245 00:11:02,810 --> 00:11:00,480 also tend to be usually even from like 246 00:11:05,930 --> 00:11:02,820 surface to 300 feet or so in depth 247 00:11:07,190 --> 00:11:05,940 normally so I mean you stay where the 248 00:11:09,350 --> 00:11:07,200 food is 249 00:11:14,290 --> 00:11:09,360 you know what I mean right right well 250 00:11:17,569 --> 00:11:14,300 that's the beaches that's uh 251 00:11:20,509 --> 00:11:17,579 there's a there's an old joke in comedy 252 00:11:23,389 --> 00:11:20,519 that goes around why do you know why do 253 00:11:24,650 --> 00:11:23,399 sharks attack or why do sharks hang out 254 00:11:27,050 --> 00:11:24,660 of beaches and 255 00:11:28,790 --> 00:11:27,060 it's where the food is it's you know 256 00:11:31,069 --> 00:11:28,800 that's if you're going to be doing that 257 00:11:34,850 --> 00:11:31,079 how common 258 00:11:39,290 --> 00:11:34,860 um is are humans and again I'm just here 259 00:11:44,690 --> 00:11:39,300 to learn right are humans just as tasty 260 00:11:47,630 --> 00:11:44,700 uh to a shark as anything else 261 00:11:49,610 --> 00:11:47,640 uh well let's see primates don't tend to 262 00:11:51,949 --> 00:11:49,620 be normally on the menu 263 00:11:53,509 --> 00:11:51,959 and again this 10 that's a species 264 00:11:55,370 --> 00:11:53,519 specific question 265 00:11:57,769 --> 00:11:55,380 um generally speaking they consider like 266 00:11:59,509 --> 00:11:57,779 shark attacks from a great white tend to 267 00:12:01,610 --> 00:11:59,519 be accidental 268 00:12:03,230 --> 00:12:01,620 you know misinterpretation they see a 269 00:12:06,170 --> 00:12:03,240 diver on the surface or on a surfboard 270 00:12:08,150 --> 00:12:06,180 and they believe it's a seal and that's 271 00:12:11,269 --> 00:12:08,160 how they like to hunt they'll be closer 272 00:12:13,430 --> 00:12:11,279 down to the bottom and they have uh they 273 00:12:15,410 --> 00:12:13,440 have uh I'm sure you're familiar with 274 00:12:18,290 --> 00:12:15,420 their color patterns they're darker on 275 00:12:19,910 --> 00:12:18,300 the top and white underneath that's 276 00:12:24,050 --> 00:12:19,920 counter shading 277 00:12:25,790 --> 00:12:24,060 reason 278 00:12:27,829 --> 00:12:25,800 um that's the white part is so that when 279 00:12:29,509 --> 00:12:27,839 a shark is swimming up on the surface or 280 00:12:31,910 --> 00:12:29,519 near the surface and if there's 281 00:12:34,250 --> 00:12:31,920 something under him looking up and 282 00:12:37,310 --> 00:12:34,260 considering making a Mew out of him like 283 00:12:39,470 --> 00:12:37,320 a larger shark an orca an enormous squid 284 00:12:41,090 --> 00:12:39,480 whatever it might be that white belly 285 00:12:43,069 --> 00:12:41,100 tends to blend in with the light at the 286 00:12:43,910 --> 00:12:43,079 surface and camouflages them a little 287 00:12:45,889 --> 00:12:43,920 bit 288 00:12:47,930 --> 00:12:45,899 whereas if he's hunting something and 289 00:12:49,850 --> 00:12:47,940 lurking along near the bottom you know 290 00:12:52,370 --> 00:12:49,860 great whites when they get big they 291 00:12:55,550 --> 00:12:52,380 change from episcoporous diet that means 292 00:12:58,490 --> 00:12:55,560 fish eating to Honey more marine mammals 293 00:13:00,170 --> 00:12:58,500 like pinnipeds things of that nature and 294 00:13:02,629 --> 00:13:00,180 then because they get bigger and slower 295 00:13:03,590 --> 00:13:02,639 which is a fact they become more like a 296 00:13:05,329 --> 00:13:03,600 Mugger 297 00:13:07,970 --> 00:13:05,339 you know so they want to creep along the 298 00:13:10,190 --> 00:13:07,980 bottom and their dark color on their 299 00:13:12,050 --> 00:13:10,200 dorsal region lets them blend in with 300 00:13:13,310 --> 00:13:12,060 the sea floor better and then when they 301 00:13:15,290 --> 00:13:13,320 see their prey looking out they're 302 00:13:18,050 --> 00:13:15,300 looking up they try and Rush up at it 303 00:13:20,750 --> 00:13:18,060 and get that one bite in do a lot of 304 00:13:22,490 --> 00:13:20,760 damage spit it out so they don't get 305 00:13:23,810 --> 00:13:22,500 hurt you know lose an eye or something 306 00:13:25,490 --> 00:13:23,820 like that I mean obviously if you're a 307 00:13:27,110 --> 00:13:25,500 seal you're going to fight for your life 308 00:13:29,269 --> 00:13:27,120 and you're going to bite 309 00:13:32,210 --> 00:13:29,279 a shark that's blind in one eye or both 310 00:13:33,769 --> 00:13:32,220 eyes is in trouble so they they spit it 311 00:13:35,509 --> 00:13:33,779 out they do the bite and spit routine 312 00:13:38,329 --> 00:13:35,519 they wait for it to Hemorrhage to bleed 313 00:13:40,970 --> 00:13:38,339 out you know and then they come and they 314 00:13:43,250 --> 00:13:40,980 eat it okay that's that's J that's the 315 00:13:45,230 --> 00:13:43,260 white sharks modus operandi as they say 316 00:13:46,790 --> 00:13:45,240 that's tiger sharks can be a little more 317 00:13:48,650 --> 00:13:46,800 uh 318 00:13:50,210 --> 00:13:48,660 I don't say they actually Target people 319 00:13:51,769 --> 00:13:50,220 but there are many instances in Hawaii 320 00:13:53,150 --> 00:13:51,779 where they seem to if you're on a 321 00:13:54,530 --> 00:13:53,160 surfboard and they keep coming after you 322 00:13:56,629 --> 00:13:54,540 and coming after you and it's not like 323 00:13:58,730 --> 00:13:56,639 Oh I thought you were a seal you know 324 00:14:00,050 --> 00:13:58,740 they seem to know and bull sharks 325 00:14:02,269 --> 00:14:00,060 sometimes they'll come after you and 326 00:14:04,550 --> 00:14:02,279 they won't let go they literally grab 327 00:14:06,350 --> 00:14:04,560 one they won't release but I mean human 328 00:14:07,790 --> 00:14:06,360 beings are not normally part of the menu 329 00:14:09,290 --> 00:14:07,800 but a lot of the animals are 330 00:14:11,870 --> 00:14:09,300 opportunistic 331 00:14:13,730 --> 00:14:11,880 know right they're like politicians you 332 00:14:16,629 --> 00:14:13,740 know they see an opportunity they want 333 00:14:19,970 --> 00:14:16,639 to sink their teeth into it 334 00:14:22,069 --> 00:14:19,980 again when I was a kid this is a Donna 335 00:14:26,090 --> 00:14:22,079 Panama too as well 336 00:14:29,569 --> 00:14:26,100 um uh had this uh friend of mine sitting 337 00:14:31,850 --> 00:14:29,579 next to me left in geometry class and I 338 00:14:33,710 --> 00:14:31,860 don't know what brought the subject up 339 00:14:38,690 --> 00:14:33,720 but we're talking about 340 00:14:39,590 --> 00:14:38,700 jaws and he says I was attacked by a 341 00:14:42,410 --> 00:14:39,600 shark 342 00:14:44,990 --> 00:14:42,420 I said you were because yeah check this 343 00:14:46,210 --> 00:14:45,000 out and he stands up and he pulls his 344 00:14:51,230 --> 00:14:46,220 shirt up 345 00:14:53,810 --> 00:14:51,240 and this he had the it's like right out 346 00:14:57,829 --> 00:14:53,820 of the movies right zigzag and teeth 347 00:14:59,990 --> 00:14:57,839 marks all the way around is all the way 348 00:15:02,629 --> 00:15:00,000 on his back like 349 00:15:06,350 --> 00:15:02,639 was this Rodney Fox by any chance no 350 00:15:09,710 --> 00:15:06,360 same with uh Jeff Scott okay okay so 351 00:15:11,329 --> 00:15:09,720 Jeff says to me I said what what 352 00:15:12,670 --> 00:15:11,339 happened he said I was out of toboga 353 00:15:15,170 --> 00:15:12,680 Island 354 00:15:16,790 --> 00:15:15,180 cliff diving there's a we had a cliff 355 00:15:18,949 --> 00:15:16,800 diving spot out at this island it's 356 00:15:21,110 --> 00:15:18,959 really cool we all did it and I never 357 00:15:24,290 --> 00:15:21,120 did it after he told me this story by 358 00:15:29,629 --> 00:15:24,300 the way but anyway he's cliff diving and 359 00:15:31,970 --> 00:15:29,639 he had a a life preserver on and when he 360 00:15:35,269 --> 00:15:31,980 was cliff diving he was trying to swim 361 00:15:37,730 --> 00:15:35,279 deep down as far as he could go with the 362 00:15:40,129 --> 00:15:37,740 light preserver on and then float to the 363 00:15:43,189 --> 00:15:40,139 top right that's it that that's his and 364 00:15:45,050 --> 00:15:43,199 he says so he's doing that he does the 365 00:15:47,810 --> 00:15:45,060 cliff dive he's diving down he said 366 00:15:50,930 --> 00:15:47,820 right out of the black boom this shark 367 00:15:54,530 --> 00:15:50,940 just comes out of nowhere grabs him and 368 00:15:56,389 --> 00:15:54,540 pulls him down and then the next thing 369 00:15:58,550 --> 00:15:56,399 he knew he was on the surface of the 370 00:16:02,990 --> 00:15:58,560 water it bit him 371 00:16:05,389 --> 00:16:03,000 and let him go it didn't eat him 372 00:16:08,509 --> 00:16:05,399 you know what I mean it didn't like bite 373 00:16:12,110 --> 00:16:08,519 through him it bit him and then let him 374 00:16:14,990 --> 00:16:12,120 go exactly what you're saying here and 375 00:16:16,610 --> 00:16:15,000 uh they medevaced him out helicopter the 376 00:16:20,590 --> 00:16:16,620 whole thing you know sewed him back up 377 00:16:25,370 --> 00:16:20,600 but it was a horrendously big big sure 378 00:16:27,710 --> 00:16:25,380 big mouth that that bit him but 379 00:16:31,569 --> 00:16:27,720 um let him go bit him and let him go 380 00:16:33,949 --> 00:16:31,579 did they say what species it was no no 381 00:16:36,170 --> 00:16:33,959 and he had a light preserver on you said 382 00:16:38,150 --> 00:16:36,180 yeah yeah that may have also contributed 383 00:16:40,310 --> 00:16:38,160 to saving his life because that would 384 00:16:42,470 --> 00:16:40,320 have borne some of the brunt of the you 385 00:16:44,329 --> 00:16:42,480 know the blow puncture reduce some of 386 00:16:46,610 --> 00:16:44,339 the puncturing of the teeth which they 387 00:16:48,230 --> 00:16:46,620 rely on that extreme sharpness and also 388 00:16:53,269 --> 00:16:48,240 probably didn't taste very palatable as 389 00:16:55,490 --> 00:16:53,279 well yeah so in a PE class right later 390 00:16:58,009 --> 00:16:55,500 every time I would look at we you know 391 00:16:59,990 --> 00:16:58,019 playing soccer and I would just look at 392 00:17:02,749 --> 00:17:00,000 that and just imagine the size of the 393 00:17:05,449 --> 00:17:02,759 shark it it wasn't small you know this 394 00:17:07,490 --> 00:17:05,459 was this was something pretty big but it 395 00:17:09,230 --> 00:17:07,500 let them go well there's a there's 396 00:17:11,270 --> 00:17:09,240 formulas out there if I can get the 397 00:17:13,490 --> 00:17:11,280 measurements of the bite for you from 398 00:17:16,809 --> 00:17:13,500 you I can figure out how approximately 399 00:17:20,210 --> 00:17:16,819 how big the shark was and

00:22:01,370 --> 00:21:58,919 labial side so the outer side 498 00:22:02,810 --> 00:22:01,380 should be the labial side is the part 499 00:22:04,490 --> 00:22:02,820 that actually would be shown when the 500 00:22:08,390 --> 00:22:04,500 shark opened its mouth 501 00:22:10,010 --> 00:22:08,400 um yeah right right right right and then 502 00:22:12,590 --> 00:22:10,020 you got this Feast which unfortunately 503 00:22:15,110 --> 00:22:12,600 is missing some of it's rude okay but 504 00:22:17,090 --> 00:22:15,120 the even so I mean this came from a 505 00:22:18,169 --> 00:22:17,100 monstrous tooth I mean look at the mass 506 00:22:19,970 --> 00:22:18,179 on that thing 507 00:22:23,330 --> 00:22:19,980 you fat that bad boy is yeah yeah yeah 508 00:22:25,490 --> 00:22:23,340 yeah and then I even got a two from uh 509 00:22:28,490 --> 00:22:25,500 close relative of 510 00:22:31,490 --> 00:22:28,500 the Megalodon which is uh the fish it 511 00:22:33,430 --> 00:22:31,500 actually descended from directly and 512 00:22:37,250 --> 00:22:33,440 this is a nice 513 00:22:38,570 --> 00:22:37,260 4.8 inch totus chub utensis which 514 00:22:40,250 --> 00:22:38,580 actually looks remarkably like a white 515 00:22:43,610 --> 00:22:40,260 shark tooth though it's definitely a 516 00:22:46,070 --> 00:22:43,620 shape see so these fish just got to be a 517 00:22:48,169 --> 00:22:46,080 fish got to be about 40 feet long uh the 518 00:22:49,970 --> 00:22:48,179 uh the chub utensis they shared the Seas 519 00:22:51,590 --> 00:22:49,980 for many millions of years 520 00:22:54,649 --> 00:22:51,600 and it's like what's called Chrono 521 00:22:56,870 --> 00:22:54,659 species okay changed his form over time 522 00:22:58,370 --> 00:22:56,880 and then eventually they split off into 523 00:23:00,950 --> 00:22:58,380 different populations 524 00:23:02,690 --> 00:23:00,960 and trombutantis remained as it was and 525 00:23:04,310 --> 00:23:02,700 the megalon got bigger and it changed 526 00:23:05,930 --> 00:23:04,320 its feeding tactics and got bigger 527 00:23:07,850 --> 00:23:05,940 bigger bigger and then chubby tends to 528 00:23:08,870 --> 00:23:07,860 either blend it in or disappeared when 529 00:23:10,310 --> 00:23:08,880 extinct and then there was just 530 00:23:12,409 --> 00:23:10,320 Megalodon and then eventually it died 531 00:23:16,850 --> 00:23:12,419 off but anyways 532 00:23:22,250 --> 00:23:16,860 why uh okay is is there evidence uh 533 00:23:25,430 --> 00:23:22,260 today of the possibility of Megalodon 534 00:23:28,070 --> 00:23:25,440 surviving and and has yet to be 535 00:23:32,510 --> 00:23:31,130 um well I mean I have if we're talking 536 00:23:34,730 --> 00:23:32,520 about like all the stuff I did for 537 00:23:36,110 --> 00:23:34,740 Monsters Marine Mysteries all those mega 538 00:23:38,510 --> 00:23:36,120 sharks and stuff like that I mean we can 539 00:23:40,610 --> 00:23:38,520 discuss that and whether or not that was 540 00:23:43,190 --> 00:23:40,620 megalodon or something else is that what 541 00:23:46,130 --> 00:23:43,200 you mean well certainly that's exactly 542 00:23:50,690 --> 00:23:46,140 what I mean I mean 543 00:23:52,370 --> 00:23:50,700 uh okay the biggest aside from the whale 544 00:23:54,529 --> 00:23:52,380 shark and things but when we were 545 00:23:57,649 --> 00:23:54,539 talking about carnivorous 546 00:24:00,049 --> 00:23:57,659 sharks we think of the great white uh 547 00:24:01,370 --> 00:24:00,059 for the for obvious reasons and it's 548 00:24:03,950 --> 00:24:01,380 very big 549 00:24:05,930 --> 00:24:03,960 but when we're talking about carnivorous 550 00:24:08,330 --> 00:24:05,940 giant sharks we're not talking about a 551 00:24:09,770 --> 00:24:08,340 bigger version of the great white we're 552 00:24:10,850 --> 00:24:09,780 talking about a different species 553 00:24:13,490 --> 00:24:10,860 altogether 554 00:24:16,490 --> 00:24:13,500 yes that is true although they all are 555 00:24:18,169 --> 00:24:16,500 or slash we're both mackerel sharks 556 00:24:20,029 --> 00:24:18,179 um okay so let's see how we're gonna do 557 00:24:22,250 --> 00:24:20,039 this okay so first off 558 00:24:25,130 --> 00:24:22,260 um a couple years ago I did a book 559 00:24:26,450 --> 00:24:25,140 called monsters and Marine Mysteries 560 00:24:29,270 --> 00:24:26,460 um which if people were interested in 561 00:24:31,669 --> 00:24:29,280 Cryptids giant prehistoric life and the 562 00:24:34,310 --> 00:24:31,679 oceans and what's really made me out 563 00:24:36,590 --> 00:24:34,320 there now then I I recommend the book I 564 00:24:38,990 --> 00:24:36,600 mean there's evidence of octopi and 565 00:24:42,289 --> 00:24:39,000 Squid big enough to eat whales literally 566 00:24:45,110 --> 00:24:42,299 eat whales I did a whole chapter on mega 567 00:24:46,730 --> 00:24:45,120 sharks which I got into in detail 568 00:24:48,470 --> 00:24:46,740 um and a lot of other stuff I mean some 569 00:24:50,870 --> 00:24:48,480 crazy things I interviewed people that 570 00:24:53,450 --> 00:24:50,880 nobody knows they're still alive one guy 571 00:24:55,430 --> 00:24:53,460 who saw 38-foot Turtle another guy that 572 00:24:57,590 --> 00:24:55,440 was actually attacked in 1976 that when 573 00:24:58,789 --> 00:24:57,600 he was a teenager by the South Side sea 574 00:25:01,490 --> 00:24:58,799 monster that tried to eat him in his 575 00:25:03,590 --> 00:25:01,500 dad's boat all sorts of stuff but in in 576 00:25:06,289 --> 00:25:03,600 Monsters Marine mystery users chapter 577 00:25:09,049 --> 00:25:06,299 one and Max advised us on self-defense 578 00:25:11,830 --> 00:25:09,059 when faced with a shark well the best 579 00:25:14,270 --> 00:25:11,840 tactic is to not be there number one 580 00:25:16,549 --> 00:25:14,280 we're probably in a cage but if you're 581 00:25:19,070 --> 00:25:16,559 faced with a shark uh the first thing I 582 00:25:20,330 --> 00:25:19,080 would do is I would not panic and I mean 583 00:25:22,430 --> 00:25:20,340 that's a complicated question though 584 00:25:24,289 --> 00:25:22,440 where are you are you underwater are you 585 00:25:26,090 --> 00:25:24,299 swimming are you scuba diving are you 586 00:25:27,830 --> 00:25:26,100 swimming on the surface are you 587 00:25:29,510 --> 00:25:27,840 snorkeling are you on a surfboard a 588 00:25:31,430 --> 00:25:29,520 bodyboard I mean you know it's there's a 589 00:25:33,890 --> 00:25:31,440 it's a million things but I would not 590 00:25:36,230 --> 00:25:33,900 panic because thrashing is going to come 591 00:25:38,450 --> 00:25:36,240 off as a distress that you know kind of 592 00:25:40,010 --> 00:25:38,460 like stimuli Etc 593 00:25:42,350 --> 00:25:40,020 um I wouldn't turn my back on a shark 594 00:25:44,210 --> 00:25:42,360 that's for sure some sharks like tiger 595 00:25:46,250 --> 00:25:44,220 sharks if they try and bite you you can 596 00:25:48,350 --> 00:25:46,260 actually redirect them like push them 597 00:25:49,669 --> 00:25:48,360 slowly away even if you float one way 598 00:25:52,250 --> 00:25:49,679 and they float the other you can avoid 599 00:25:53,870 --> 00:25:52,260 being bitten so it varies from species 600 00:25:56,149 --> 00:25:53,880 to species there's a lot of info out 601 00:25:58,549 --> 00:25:56,159 there about that but anyway so 602 00:26:00,890 --> 00:25:58,559 in Monsters Marine Mysteries 603 00:26:02,510 --> 00:26:00,900 um I covered a bunch of different sharks 604 00:26:05,990 --> 00:26:02,520 evidence of sharks that were 605 00:26:08,149 --> 00:26:06,000 considerably larger than normal 606 00:26:09,769 --> 00:26:08,159 um the one in the video would you want 607 00:26:11,470 --> 00:26:09,779 to talk about the video documentary that 608 00:26:14,090 --> 00:26:11,480 we just did 609 00:26:16,909 --> 00:26:14,100 we'll we'll get to that in a second I 610 00:26:19,970 --> 00:26:16,919 mean what I what I would I I want you to 611 00:26:23,029 --> 00:26:19,980 continue because when we talk about uh 612 00:26:25,029 --> 00:26:23,039 using words like uh or definitions like 613 00:26:27,350 --> 00:26:25,039 mega sharks 614 00:26:30,350 --> 00:26:27,360 for the audience they need to understand 615 00:26:32,570 --> 00:26:30,360 really what we're talking about here and 616 00:26:34,850 --> 00:26:32,580 not necessarily what comes to mind 617 00:26:37,490 --> 00:26:34,860 immediately which is like a tiger shark 618 00:26:39,049 --> 00:26:37,500 or a or a great white shark that we're 619 00:26:40,570 --> 00:26:39,059 talking about something completely 620 00:26:44,330 --> 00:26:40,580 different 621 00:26:47,029 --> 00:26:44,340 I'm sorry yeah so like the definition of 622 00:26:50,090 --> 00:26:47,039 a a mega shark is 623 00:26:51,890 --> 00:26:50,100 a preternaturally large shark it may be 624 00:26:53,810 --> 00:26:51,900 a very large large version of an 625 00:26:55,669 --> 00:26:53,820 existing species that's for some reason 626 00:26:56,810 --> 00:26:55,679 bigger than it's supposed to be it might 627 00:26:58,250 --> 00:26:56,820 be something we don't know about it 628 00:27:00,350 --> 00:26:58,260 could be something it's extinct and 629 00:27:02,870 --> 00:27:00,360 nobody sent it an email to tell it that 630 00:27:04,669 --> 00:27:02,880 it was extinct I mean it varies but it's 631 00:27:06,350 --> 00:27:04,679 something big just like the word Mega 632 00:27:08,930 --> 00:27:06,360 implies 633 00:27:11,630 --> 00:27:08,940 um so in Monsters Marine Mysteries there 634 00:27:13,789 --> 00:27:11,640 were gosh four or five different sharks 635 00:27:15,590 --> 00:27:13,799 that we looked into 636 00:27:19,370 --> 00:27:15,600 um the smallest one 637 00:27:21,350 --> 00:27:19,380 was and I I christened these shorts with 638 00:27:24,350 --> 00:27:21,360 names to the book was a fish called the 639 00:27:27,590 --> 00:27:24,360 beasts of Briar Island and this was 640 00:27:30,350 --> 00:27:27,600 documented by a couple friends of mine 641 00:27:32,510 --> 00:27:30,360 um which would be the tutors 642 00:27:34,730 --> 00:27:32,520 um Jess Tudor and his wife Amy who 643 00:27:36,529 --> 00:27:34,740 actually work and live on Briar Island 644 00:27:39,049 --> 00:27:36,539 and they do 645 00:27:41,269 --> 00:27:39,059 um they were for real whale research you 646 00:27:43,490 --> 00:27:41,279 know they do tours for whales Etc and 647 00:27:45,950 --> 00:27:43,500 such they have a sea salt company but 648 00:27:50,390 --> 00:27:45,960 they um suggested documented this 649 00:27:54,350 --> 00:27:50,400 carcass of a 52 foot humpback whale that 650 00:27:57,470 --> 00:27:54,360 had died and he was measuring bites on 651 00:27:59,630 --> 00:27:57,480 it and he found a pair of bites that 652 00:28:02,990 --> 00:27:59,640 were 27 inches wide 653 00:28:04,549 --> 00:28:03,000 and one was 31 inches tall and the other 654 00:28:07,850 --> 00:28:04,559 one which is right next to it was 37 655 00:28:09,169 --> 00:28:07,860 inches tall 36 or 37 I think 37. 656 00:28:10,669 --> 00:28:09,179 um and that's because the shark open 657 00:28:12,830 --> 00:28:10,679 it's about wider 658 00:28:14,390 --> 00:28:12,840 you know to try and get a bite okay but 659 00:28:17,210 --> 00:28:14,400 they were the same with the same fish it 660 00:28:18,350 --> 00:28:17,220 was obvious and like your friend you 661 00:28:21,769 --> 00:28:18,360 were talking about who had that bite 662 00:28:23,870 --> 00:28:21,779 scar on him it probably wasn't 27 inches 663 00:28:26,149 --> 00:28:23,880 wide because if you take your hand and 664 00:28:28,909 --> 00:28:26,159 measure out 27 inches that would 665 00:28:32,029 --> 00:28:28,919 probably go from his hip to his shoulder 666 00:28:34,310 --> 00:28:32,039 or something like that okay but that 667 00:28:36,350 --> 00:28:34,320 suggested a white shark feeding on the 668 00:28:37,310 --> 00:28:36,360 carcass that was a little over 26 feet 669 00:28:39,710 --> 00:28:37,320 long 670 00:28:41,510 --> 00:28:39,720 so now that was the small end of the 671 00:28:45,169 --> 00:28:41,520 scale and that's already a fish it's 672 00:28:47,510 --> 00:28:45,179 bigger than Bruce from Jaws okay 25 673 00:28:53,710 --> 00:28:47,520 three tons of them you know that kind of 674 00:28:56,590 --> 00:28:53,720 thing okay black guys like a doll's eyes 675 00:28:59,590 --> 00:28:56,600 until he bites you 676 00:29:04,130 --> 00:28:59,600 still the best scene in cinema history 677 00:29:05,990 --> 00:29:04,140 absolutely the USS Indianapolis okay 678 00:29:08,810 --> 00:29:06,000 um uh back to the whale and the bite 679 00:29:10,669 --> 00:29:08,820 sizes so that was the small end of it 680 00:29:12,590 --> 00:29:10,679 then there was I'm going to try and work 681 00:29:14,510 --> 00:29:12,600 my way up the size 682 00:29:17,750 --> 00:29:14,520 line okay 683 00:29:19,909 --> 00:29:17,760 um then there was gosh another one okay 684 00:29:22,130 --> 00:29:19,919 so in 685 00:29:24,470 --> 00:29:22,140 Kurt Jenner from the center for whale 686 00:29:26,990 --> 00:29:24,480 research in Australia he and this was in 687 00:29:29,870 --> 00:29:27,000 a Discovery Channel special that they 688 00:29:31,669 --> 00:29:29,880 it um he had photographed a 69 689 00:29:33,470 --> 00:29:31,679 approximately for pygmy blue whale 690 00:29:37,490 --> 00:29:33,480 picture a 70-foot whale is called a 691 00:29:39,889 --> 00:29:37,500 pygmy that had this huge healed bite 692 00:29:41,570 --> 00:29:39,899 scar on the top of its peduncle that's 693 00:29:43,190 --> 00:29:41,580 the right the tail right in front of the 694 00:29:45,289 --> 00:29:43,200 flukes okay 695 00:29:46,310 --> 00:29:45,299 and it had like you know gouges on it 696 00:29:48,409 --> 00:29:46,320 and stuff that were healed so you could 697 00:29:50,149 --> 00:29:48,419 see that it was a shark bite and he was 698 00:29:52,130 --> 00:29:50,159 kind enough to send me some great HD 699 00:29:55,010 --> 00:29:52,140 full color images and stuff so I could 700 00:29:58,130 --> 00:29:55,020 use do research on it for Monsters and 701 00:30:00,590 --> 00:29:58,140 Mysteries and I was able to number 702 00:30:02,810 --> 00:30:00,600 Crunch and all that and eventually I 703 00:30:06,230 --> 00:30:02,820 figured out the white the heel bite was 704 00:30:07,669 --> 00:30:06,240 estimated at 39 to 47 inches that's they 705 00:30:10,070 --> 00:30:07,679 photographed from a distance so they had 706 00:30:12,049 --> 00:30:10,080 to you know count pixels 707 00:30:13,610 --> 00:30:12,059 to estimate the bite 708 00:30:15,889 --> 00:30:13,620 um and that could have suggested in a 709 00:30:17,510 --> 00:30:15,899 very very big shark especially since it 710 00:30:18,470 --> 00:30:17,520 looked like the only the front of the 711 00:30:21,110 --> 00:30:18,480 jaw 712 00:30:23,510 --> 00:30:21,120 had crunched into the whale but what it 713 00:30:26,630 --> 00:30:23,520 turned out is this was an older bite and 714 00:30:28,130 --> 00:30:26,640 it hadn't grown per se you know they say 715 00:30:30,049 --> 00:30:28,140 a lot of people think oh it was bitten 716 00:30:33,049 --> 00:30:30,059 when it was younger and the bike grew 717 00:30:35,269 --> 00:30:33,059 right it doesn't work like that okay you 718 00:30:37,310 --> 00:30:35,279 know if you have a bite on you it 719 00:30:40,370 --> 00:30:37,320 doesn't magically symmetrically and 720 00:30:42,289 --> 00:30:40,380 large and the tooth marks enlarge like 721 00:30:43,850 --> 00:30:42,299 it's a copy machine and you hit plus 50 722 00:30:46,010 --> 00:30:43,860 plus 80 723 00:30:47,090 --> 00:30:46,020 Etc it doesn't work like that just like 724 00:30:50,210 --> 00:30:47,100 what a whale shark when a whale shark 725 00:30:52,669 --> 00:30:50,220 gets bitten by a larger shark the wound 726 00:30:55,010 --> 00:30:52,679 fills in it heals like it's it's 727 00:30:56,630 --> 00:30:55,020 literally filling up and within like a 728 00:30:59,810 --> 00:30:56,640 year or two years it's almost gone or 729 00:31:02,149 --> 00:30:59,820 unrecognizable anymore see so people you 730 00:31:04,190 --> 00:31:02,159 know get this like oh it was bitten when 731 00:31:06,230 --> 00:31:04,200 it was small and they just miss it 732 00:31:08,149 --> 00:31:06,240 that's not how it works okay people go 733 00:31:10,549 --> 00:31:08,159 on my website and you look up an article 734 00:31:11,750 --> 00:31:10,559 a blog post I did about whale sharks and 735 00:31:14,090 --> 00:31:11,760 great whites and how the whale shark 736 00:31:15,950 --> 00:31:14,100 survives attacks by white sharks and 737 00:31:17,630 --> 00:31:15,960 you'll see right there you know 738 00:31:19,130 --> 00:31:17,640 photographic evidence of how these 739 00:31:21,830 --> 00:31:19,140 sharks healed so anyway back to the 740 00:31:24,950 --> 00:31:21,840 pygmy blue whale So what had happened is 741 00:31:26,389 --> 00:31:24,960 is like picture this is the the part of 742 00:31:29,810 --> 00:31:26,399 the whale's tail and the flukes are over 743 00:31:32,269 --> 00:31:29,820 here okay so the bite's right here like 744 00:31:34,250 --> 00:31:32,279 that like like this okay but it was kind 745 00:31:36,529 --> 00:31:34,260 of shallow and I realized what had 746 00:31:39,529 --> 00:31:36,539 happened is this whale is constantly 747 00:31:41,870 --> 00:31:39,539 moving its tail you know that's how it 748 00:31:43,490 --> 00:31:41,880 swims it's just like you walking if you 749 00:31:45,769 --> 00:31:43,500 put on one of those fitbits and you know 750 00:31:47,389 --> 00:31:45,779 seven thousand steps in a day same thing 751 00:31:49,909 --> 00:31:47,399 with the whale's tail that's its 752 00:31:51,830 --> 00:31:49,919 Locomotion okay so the bite didn't 753 00:31:54,409 --> 00:31:51,840 change in terms of depth it stayed the 754 00:31:55,549 --> 00:31:54,419 same depth but it gradually flattened 755 00:31:57,950 --> 00:31:55,559 out 756 00:32:00,289 --> 00:31:57,960 see as the whale grew around it and that 757 00:32:02,870 --> 00:32:00,299 motion so it became like a more shallow 758 00:32:05,389 --> 00:32:02,880 looking bite so in reality when I 759 00:32:08,330 --> 00:32:05,399 crunched the numbers at least this is my 760 00:32:10,970 --> 00:32:08,340 considered opinion the shark bite was 27 761 00:32:12,169 --> 00:32:10,980 to 33 inches across when it was 762 00:32:14,630 --> 00:32:12,179 originally attacked when it was a 763 00:32:17,090 --> 00:32:14,640 younger whale and that still suggests a 764 00:32:17,950 --> 00:32:17,100 white shark between 26 and 30 feet of 765 00:32:21,529 --> 00:32:17,960 length 766 00:32:23,510 --> 00:32:21,539 yeah that's nothing small okay I mean 767 00:32:25,370 --> 00:32:23,520 not at all okay so that one I was 768 00:32:27,169 --> 00:32:25,380 calling the Perth Canyon Colossus I try 769 00:32:29,149 --> 00:32:27,179 to come up with these cool names you 770 00:32:32,269 --> 00:32:29,159 know like the Beast of Briar Island 771 00:32:33,950 --> 00:32:32,279 Perth Canyon Colossus and stuff but the 772 00:32:36,590 --> 00:32:33,960 biggest one in the book 773 00:32:40,549 --> 00:32:36,600 was insane and this these pictures this 774 00:32:43,310 --> 00:32:40,559 was from 2017 and was courtesy of Dr 775 00:32:44,750 --> 00:32:43,320 Simon Pierce and this guy is one of the 776 00:32:47,690 --> 00:32:44,760 greatest marine biologists in the world 777 00:32:50,210 --> 00:32:47,700 this man swims with whale sharks the 778 00:32:53,510 --> 00:32:50,220 size of a bus pregnant ones and gives 779 00:32:54,289 --> 00:32:53,520 them sonograms okay he is living the 780 00:32:57,049 --> 00:32:54,299 life 781 00:32:59,510 --> 00:32:57,059 honestly I'm like hashtag jealous love 782 00:33:02,870 --> 00:32:59,520 them whatever okay but he's my go-to guy 783 00:33:06,350 --> 00:33:02,880 so he photographed this 40-foot whale 784 00:33:10,310 --> 00:33:06,360 shark off the Galapagos and it had a 785 00:33:12,169 --> 00:33:10,320 fairly recently healed shark bite a 786 00:33:14,269 --> 00:33:12,179 chunk taken out of it and if you guys 787 00:33:16,009 --> 00:33:14,279 want to see it the black and white one 788 00:33:18,049 --> 00:33:16,019 isn't version is in Monsters Marine 789 00:33:21,350 --> 00:33:18,059 Mysteries but if you go on my YouTube 790 00:33:24,169 --> 00:33:21,360 channel which is at real max Hawthorne 791 00:33:25,909 --> 00:33:24,179 you can find it by Google and everything 792 00:33:27,649 --> 00:33:25,919 um there is an actual documentary we'll 793 00:33:30,110 --> 00:33:27,659 be talking about momentarily and in that 794 00:33:32,090 --> 00:33:30,120 there are color photos of Simon Pierce 795 00:33:35,870 --> 00:33:32,100 swimming with this whale shark with a 796 00:33:40,970 --> 00:33:35,880 four foot bite taken out of it 48 inches 797 00:33:43,610 --> 00:33:40,980 across with tooth marks on it okay and 798 00:33:45,950 --> 00:33:43,620 that using the most conservative bite 799 00:33:48,529 --> 00:33:45,960 formula out there suggested a strike 800 00:33:50,450 --> 00:33:48,539 approximately 42 feet in length so 801 00:33:53,649 --> 00:33:50,460 you're talking about a bust size 802 00:33:59,810 --> 00:33:57,169 I have a I'm looking at the yardstick 803 00:34:02,330 --> 00:33:59,820 right that's leaning against my wall 804 00:34:05,810 --> 00:34:02,340 that's three feet right you're saying 805 00:34:08,690 --> 00:34:05,820 four feet right yeah yep 806 00:34:11,210 --> 00:34:08,700 if you stretch your hands out like you 807 00:34:14,089 --> 00:34:11,220 know so wide okay you can estimate four 808 00:34:15,950 --> 00:34:14,099 feet wide I mean it's gigantic and you 809 00:34:18,770 --> 00:34:15,960 see the divers right next to the plate 810 00:34:22,010 --> 00:34:18,780 so I mean it's like for scale okay it 811 00:34:23,750 --> 00:34:22,020 was crazy and you know I mean like how 812 00:34:25,609 --> 00:34:23,760 did the shark not finish the whale shark 813 00:34:28,730 --> 00:34:25,619 off and so I mean there's such slow 814 00:34:30,169 --> 00:34:28,740 innocuous creatures and all that and I 815 00:34:31,430 --> 00:34:30,179 mean I have a theory on that and it's in 816 00:34:32,450 --> 00:34:31,440 the book and all that but you know at 817 00:34:34,849 --> 00:34:32,460 the end of the day the whale shark 818 00:34:36,349 --> 00:34:34,859 escaped and you know its attacker got a 819 00:34:38,690 --> 00:34:36,359 mouthful of uh 820 00:34:41,950 --> 00:34:38,700 tough skin it probably didn't enjoy and 821 00:34:49,010 --> 00:34:45,349 four okay so we're talking about 822 00:34:51,589 --> 00:34:49,020 something that is uh mega mega is not 823 00:34:54,710 --> 00:34:51,599 even the right word we need a a new word 824 00:34:58,730 --> 00:34:54,720 monster yeah 825 00:35:02,570 --> 00:35:01,550 four four feet wide 826 00:35:05,390 --> 00:35:02,580 um 827 00:35:09,550 --> 00:35:05,400 that thing is still alive 828 00:35:12,650 --> 00:35:09,560 and probably has brothers and sisters 829 00:35:16,310 --> 00:35:12,660 right this isn't uh this isn't 830 00:35:21,170 --> 00:35:16,320 prehistoric uh something that has a four 831 00:35:24,530 --> 00:35:21,180 foot bite mark that could be 40 50 foot 832 00:35:25,670 --> 00:35:24,540 long a shark is is alive in swimming 833 00:35:27,829 --> 00:35:25,680 right now 834 00:35:29,690 --> 00:35:27,839 appears it's it's quite conceivable yes 835 00:35:32,030 --> 00:35:29,700 I believe they were doing actually a 836 00:35:34,130 --> 00:35:32,040 formal paper on this 837 00:35:35,329 --> 00:35:34,140 um so I don't know what stage that's in 838 00:35:37,130 --> 00:35:35,339 or anything like that but I'll be 839 00:35:40,550 --> 00:35:37,140 curious to see what the professionals 840 00:35:42,109 --> 00:35:40,560 put out in terms of that but um and do 841 00:35:44,410 --> 00:35:42,119 you want to talk about the documentary 842 00:35:47,870 --> 00:35:44,420 that we yeah well 843 00:35:50,710 --> 00:35:47,880 absolutely absolutely and and we'll do 844 00:35:54,470 --> 00:35:50,720 that right now but 845 00:35:56,810 --> 00:35:54,480 wait there's more those teeth that you 846 00:35:58,430 --> 00:35:56,820 just held up from Megalodon right and 847 00:36:01,670 --> 00:35:58,440 and you're talking about the size of 848 00:36:03,910 --> 00:36:01,680 Megalodon but the the the the four foot 849 00:36:06,470 --> 00:36:03,920 bite mark 850 00:36:07,690 --> 00:36:06,480 are those are we talking about teeth 851 00:36:11,030 --> 00:36:07,700 probably 852 00:36:14,150 --> 00:36:11,040 about this size yeah right right that's 853 00:36:17,510 --> 00:36:14,160 insane yeah I mean I discussed the only 854 00:36:19,190 --> 00:36:17,520 you know it was either well I I have a 855 00:36:20,210 --> 00:36:19,200 pretty good idea what did the attack and 856 00:36:22,430 --> 00:36:20,220 we'll talk about that when we talk about 857 00:36:23,930 --> 00:36:22,440 the documentary but it was like I said 858 00:36:26,150 --> 00:36:23,940 there are 859 00:36:28,430 --> 00:36:26,160 elasma branchologist that means 860 00:36:30,349 --> 00:36:28,440 scientists who study sharks Rays things 861 00:36:32,270 --> 00:36:30,359 like that cartilage in his fish and 862 00:36:34,550 --> 00:36:32,280 there are elasma branchologist formulas 863 00:36:37,069 --> 00:36:34,560 out there where you can use those to 864 00:36:40,130 --> 00:36:37,079 plug in numbers and estimate the length 865 00:36:42,349 --> 00:36:40,140 of a shark based on the bite width 866 00:36:44,690 --> 00:36:42,359 and I've used these a lot when I did the 867 00:36:47,569 --> 00:36:44,700 wrote the book and 868 00:36:50,810 --> 00:36:47,579 like I said I use the most conservative 869 00:36:53,089 --> 00:36:50,820 one available because some of the 870 00:36:54,190 --> 00:36:53,099 findings were ridiculously big I was 871 00:36:59,569 --> 00:36:54,200 like that's 872 00:37:01,730 --> 00:36:59,579 okay but still a 42 foot fish is is an 873 00:37:03,650 --> 00:37:01,740 insanely large fish and the one that's 874 00:37:05,930 --> 00:37:03,660 in the documentary wasn't quite that big 875 00:37:09,109 --> 00:37:05,940 but it was pretty freaking big so I mean 876 00:37:13,130 --> 00:37:09,119 and we got some hard evidence of that 877 00:37:15,530 --> 00:37:13,140 okay we've got uh links up uh in the 878 00:37:16,930 --> 00:37:15,540 chat you probably saw it uh to your 879 00:37:19,970 --> 00:37:16,940 YouTube channel 880 00:37:22,550 --> 00:37:19,980 and I am here now and you said the 881 00:37:24,530 --> 00:37:22,560 documentary is on the YouTube channel 882 00:37:25,970 --> 00:37:24,540 yeah it's the most recent one I've been 883 00:37:27,109 --> 00:37:25,980 slacking I haven't put anything on there 884 00:37:29,870 --> 00:37:27,119 in the last four months or something 885 00:37:31,310 --> 00:37:29,880 like that right my guy was giving me 886 00:37:36,250 --> 00:37:31,320 grief about it you know you haven't done 887 00:37:42,829 --> 00:37:40,730 mega shark or Megalodon yes that's the 888 00:37:44,750 --> 00:37:42,839 documentary okay we've got the links up 889 00:37:46,069 --> 00:37:44,760 for it now 890 00:37:49,670 --> 00:37:46,079 um 891 00:37:52,730 --> 00:37:49,680 it would sound okay what's your best 892 00:37:55,250 --> 00:37:52,740 guess here I mean I understand the title 893 00:37:58,310 --> 00:37:55,260 and and and what we're talking about 894 00:38:02,470 --> 00:37:58,320 tonight but when we're we're talking 895 00:38:09,470 --> 00:38:02,480 about a measurement of of uh four feet 896 00:38:11,150 --> 00:38:09,480 I I I I'm going Megalodon I I I I I am I 897 00:38:13,550 --> 00:38:11,160 wrong with thinking like that that it's 898 00:38:15,470 --> 00:38:13,560 possible for something that is supposed 899 00:38:18,109 --> 00:38:15,480 to have been extinct for 10 million 900 00:38:20,930 --> 00:38:18,119 years to to have survived 901 00:38:23,750 --> 00:38:20,940 well the problem with the Megalodon 902 00:38:25,849 --> 00:38:23,760 thing I mean you're you're do you want 903 00:38:27,829 --> 00:38:25,859 we want to discuss the documentary the 904 00:38:30,650 --> 00:38:27,839 shark bites in there first because 905 00:38:33,829 --> 00:38:30,660 you're all kind of interrelated sure or 906 00:38:35,990 --> 00:38:33,839 Okay so let's talk about Mega Shark or 907 00:38:36,710 --> 00:38:36,000 Megalodon the documentary 908 00:38:40,490 --> 00:38:36,720 um 909 00:38:42,050 --> 00:38:40,500 this came about because uh my my buddies 910 00:38:44,890 --> 00:38:42,060 the tutors the same couple I told you 911 00:38:47,270 --> 00:38:44,900 about Jess and Amy I'm from Briar Island 912 00:38:48,829 --> 00:38:47,280 uh they reach out to me when they find 913 00:38:51,050 --> 00:38:48,839 interesting stuff because you know we 914 00:38:53,270 --> 00:38:51,060 have a shared passion for this and so 915 00:38:54,710 --> 00:38:53,280 just was like Max I got a video I got a 916 00:38:56,810 --> 00:38:54,720 whale carcass here what do you think 917 00:38:58,550 --> 00:38:56,820 blah blah blah it's got shark bites all 918 00:39:00,109 --> 00:38:58,560 over it all this stuff so you sent me 919 00:39:02,150 --> 00:39:00,119 the video and he's like panning along 920 00:39:04,069 --> 00:39:02,160 the carcass and the carcass is pretty 921 00:39:05,690 --> 00:39:04,079 nasty at this point it's been beached 922 00:39:07,550 --> 00:39:05,700 for a couple days whatever and stuff 923 00:39:11,030 --> 00:39:07,560 like that and he was under the 924 00:39:13,910 --> 00:39:11,040 impression that the the whale which is a 925 00:39:16,370 --> 00:39:13,920 30-foot humpback so a sub adult humpback 926 00:39:18,710 --> 00:39:16,380 um this is just this past July just so 927 00:39:20,329 --> 00:39:18,720 we're clear on that okay so 10 months 928 00:39:22,490 --> 00:39:20,339 ago 11 months ago something like that 929 00:39:24,950 --> 00:39:22,500 and um 930 00:39:27,230 --> 00:39:24,960 have been killed by a ship strike 931 00:39:28,849 --> 00:39:27,240 and he wasn't wrong it had certainly 932 00:39:29,870 --> 00:39:28,859 been badly wounded by a ship strike 933 00:39:32,930 --> 00:39:29,880 because and you'll see in the 934 00:39:35,810 --> 00:39:32,940 documentary there are uh there's prop 935 00:39:37,550 --> 00:39:35,820 wounds or prop massive prop wounds on I 936 00:39:40,870 --> 00:39:37,560 believe it's the right shoulder 937 00:39:43,370 --> 00:39:40,880 but it was like shredded like 938 00:39:45,410 --> 00:39:43,380 badly hurt the whale I didn't kill it 939 00:39:47,210 --> 00:39:45,420 but it would have been a bloody mess and 940 00:39:49,190 --> 00:39:47,220 and you know it would have drawn 941 00:39:50,210 --> 00:39:49,200 Predators from all over obviously and 942 00:39:51,829 --> 00:39:50,220 stuff 943 00:39:56,510 --> 00:39:51,839 um so and this is all covered in the 944 00:39:59,870 --> 00:39:56,520 documentary but um the 945 00:40:02,150 --> 00:39:59,880 as he was the video was moving you know 946 00:40:05,270 --> 00:40:02,160 towards the codal region that means I'm 947 00:40:06,829 --> 00:40:05,280 sorry towards the tail okay I was like 948 00:40:09,109 --> 00:40:06,839 whoa whoa stop the camera right there 949 00:40:12,890 --> 00:40:09,119 what do we look what stop let's go back 950 00:40:14,750 --> 00:40:12,900 you know an air was this enormous bite 951 00:40:15,890 --> 00:40:14,760 on the near the Tail 952 00:40:17,690 --> 00:40:15,900 of the whale 953 00:40:19,010 --> 00:40:17,700 now we talked about like you know white 954 00:40:20,569 --> 00:40:19,020 sharks they come up and they take a 955 00:40:22,130 --> 00:40:20,579 Munch and you know whatever and then 956 00:40:23,990 --> 00:40:22,140 they wait for you to die 957 00:40:25,430 --> 00:40:24,000 Etc well that's what they do they like 958 00:40:27,050 --> 00:40:25,440 to hit you in the haunch in the rear 959 00:40:28,130 --> 00:40:27,060 this type of stuff like if you're a 960 00:40:30,170 --> 00:40:28,140 white shark and you're attacking an 961 00:40:32,210 --> 00:40:30,180 elephant seal as big as you you don't 962 00:40:34,550 --> 00:40:32,220 want to get bit by that thing you could 963 00:40:37,370 --> 00:40:34,560 be killed even you know or badly wounded 964 00:40:39,109 --> 00:40:37,380 so they bite them in the tail region 965 00:40:41,510 --> 00:40:39,119 inflict damage like you're you know what 966 00:40:42,950 --> 00:40:41,520 happened to your friend okay so there 967 00:40:44,510 --> 00:40:42,960 was this looked like a giant bite there 968 00:40:46,970 --> 00:40:44,520 and I was I was looking at the video I 969 00:40:49,430 --> 00:40:46,980 could even see two notches and and there 970 00:40:50,990 --> 00:40:49,440 was no doubt it was a bite okay so I 971 00:40:53,150 --> 00:40:51,000 asked Jess um because he'd already 972 00:40:56,270 --> 00:40:53,160 filmed this to go back to the carcass 973 00:40:57,890 --> 00:40:56,280 and get me measurements of the bite you 974 00:41:00,530 --> 00:40:57,900 know I'm not in Briar Island I'm here in 975 00:41:02,630 --> 00:41:00,540 Pennsylvania and whatnot but um 976 00:41:05,030 --> 00:41:02,640 so he went back like a day or two later 977 00:41:07,370 --> 00:41:05,040 but the tide kept moving the carcass and 978 00:41:09,530 --> 00:41:07,380 it shifted so he measured this section 979 00:41:12,410 --> 00:41:09,540 and it's in the video 980 00:41:15,050 --> 00:41:12,420 um that was like 54 inches wide 981 00:41:16,069 --> 00:41:15,060 and I I was using this for his well 982 00:41:18,050 --> 00:41:16,079 putting all this stuff together all 983 00:41:20,390 --> 00:41:18,060 photos and videos and all this stuff in 984 00:41:22,190 --> 00:41:20,400 the documentary and it just it didn't 985 00:41:24,950 --> 00:41:22,200 look like the the bite that I had seen 986 00:41:26,390 --> 00:41:24,960 before you know it was off and it turned 987 00:41:28,490 --> 00:41:26,400 out the carcass had shifted with the 988 00:41:29,450 --> 00:41:28,500 tide and so the coda white was more 989 00:41:32,030 --> 00:41:29,460 covered 990 00:41:34,790 --> 00:41:32,040 and this was actually like four or five 991 00:41:36,349 --> 00:41:34,800 bites combined from a big white shark 992 00:41:39,290 --> 00:41:36,359 that have been feeding in the same 993 00:41:42,970 --> 00:41:39,300 section so this was a quote small white 994 00:41:45,230 --> 00:41:42,980 shark by 20 feet long so small okay 995 00:41:48,470 --> 00:41:45,240 when you see the video you understand 996 00:41:49,730 --> 00:41:48,480 why I say small okay and I was like so 997 00:41:51,230 --> 00:41:49,740 how you know and then we didn't have any 998 00:41:52,970 --> 00:41:51,240 like the carcass was disassembled at 999 00:41:54,290 --> 00:41:52,980 this point and the skeleton and whatever 1000 00:41:55,609 --> 00:41:54,300 all the stuff so there was no more 1001 00:41:57,530 --> 00:41:55,619 evidence and I'm like well how are we 1002 00:42:00,530 --> 00:41:57,540 going to measure this thing but luckily 1003 00:42:02,750 --> 00:42:00,540 Jess at one point had taken his Boot and 1004 00:42:04,790 --> 00:42:02,760 he had while he was taping he had stuck 1005 00:42:06,950 --> 00:42:04,800 it inside a bite 1006 00:42:08,990 --> 00:42:06,960 that was right in the same region you 1007 00:42:11,030 --> 00:42:09,000 know for comparison and I was able to 1008 00:42:13,370 --> 00:42:11,040 get an exact measurement of his Boot and 1009 00:42:16,670 --> 00:42:13,380 then map that out to the codal bite Etc 1010 00:42:20,030 --> 00:42:16,680 so we discovered that the the bite by 1011 00:42:24,550 --> 00:42:20,040 the tail was at least 36 inches across 1012 00:42:27,890 --> 00:42:24,560 okay which it's pretty big I mean 1013 00:42:30,250 --> 00:42:27,900 I've seen it in the documentary 1014 00:42:35,630 --> 00:42:32,630 you're talking about the the photograph 1015 00:42:40,730 --> 00:42:35,640 that's in the video was showing the tail 1016 00:42:43,010 --> 00:42:40,740 from the side and a video tone yeah 1017 00:42:46,130 --> 00:42:43,020 um uh no I'm saying 1018 00:42:49,010 --> 00:42:46,140 okay misunderstanding but is that you in 1019 00:42:51,349 --> 00:42:49,020 that shot no that's Jess that's Jess 1020 00:42:53,630 --> 00:42:51,359 okay yeah because you can see the size 1021 00:42:56,030 --> 00:42:53,640 of the bite right there because he's 1022 00:42:59,990 --> 00:42:56,040 standing right there and it's it's like 1023 00:43:01,609 --> 00:43:00,000 this yes it's gigantic and his wife had 1024 00:43:03,950 --> 00:43:01,619 taken pictures of the cargo soon it was 1025 00:43:05,510 --> 00:43:03,960 at Sea and it was fresh and as I looked 1026 00:43:07,730 --> 00:43:05,520 through all those God bless her she got 1027 00:43:09,290 --> 00:43:07,740 some it's so rare to get pictures of one 1028 00:43:11,750 --> 00:43:09,300 of these carcasses before that starts to 1029 00:43:13,790 --> 00:43:11,760 turn the jello and nasty jello with that 1030 00:43:15,530 --> 00:43:13,800 and she got one there's one shot where 1031 00:43:18,470 --> 00:43:15,540 you can see there's another huge fight 1032 00:43:20,030 --> 00:43:18,480 right near where the problem was the 1033 00:43:22,370 --> 00:43:20,040 fish must have been attracted to the 1034 00:43:24,410 --> 00:43:22,380 wound and was chewing on that part too 1035 00:43:26,569 --> 00:43:24,420 and it's as big as the bite in the back 1036 00:43:27,770 --> 00:43:26,579 so we had two giant bites you know we 1037 00:43:30,470 --> 00:43:27,780 all see the other side of the shark 1038 00:43:33,470 --> 00:43:30,480 unfortunately but two bites at least 1039 00:43:34,849 --> 00:43:33,480 from the same monstrous fish I mean a 32 1040 00:43:37,490 --> 00:43:34,859 foot white shark would weigh about eight 1041 00:43:40,550 --> 00:43:37,500 tons just to give you an idea so it's an 1042 00:43:44,150 --> 00:43:40,560 enormous enormous animal in that and and 1043 00:43:45,950 --> 00:43:44,160 the shot um so that's Jess's boot I 1044 00:43:48,470 --> 00:43:45,960 remember that too as well where he 1045 00:43:51,730 --> 00:43:48,480 flashes his boot up next to the uh the 1046 00:43:58,190 --> 00:43:55,010 and then next to it is another bite mark 1047 00:43:59,030 --> 00:43:58,200 that is is right there and that's got to 1048 00:44:02,390 --> 00:43:59,040 be 1049 00:44:04,609 --> 00:44:02,400 I mean that's multiple feet wide I mean 1050 00:44:07,130 --> 00:44:04,619 it depends on I don't have the video in 1051 00:44:09,050 --> 00:44:07,140 front of me but the the one the group of 1052 00:44:11,089 --> 00:44:09,060 bytes I told you about maybe the group 1053 00:44:13,190 --> 00:44:11,099 that's right under his foot right where 1054 00:44:15,470 --> 00:44:13,200 there was like four bites together right 1055 00:44:17,870 --> 00:44:15,480 and those are still big bites they're 1056 00:44:20,150 --> 00:44:17,880 like 25 inches wide or something like 1057 00:44:22,370 --> 00:44:20,160 that they look like those look like 1058 00:44:25,309 --> 00:44:22,380 nibbles those reminded me of nibbles 1059 00:44:26,930 --> 00:44:25,319 like well compared to that one yeah I 1060 00:44:29,150 --> 00:44:26,940 mean yeah 1061 00:44:31,790 --> 00:44:29,160 and it's still huge they're they're 1062 00:44:34,490 --> 00:44:31,800 they're they're they're big yeah and you 1063 00:44:37,790 --> 00:44:34,500 see the size of this whale knowing that 1064 00:44:40,069 --> 00:44:37,800 uh you know the the circumference of 1065 00:44:42,950 --> 00:44:40,079 circumference that's the wrong the width 1066 00:44:45,470 --> 00:44:42,960 let's go with width of that one giant 1067 00:44:48,230 --> 00:44:45,480 bite mark uh next to the the three or 1068 00:44:51,230 --> 00:44:48,240 four nibbles I think it's huge it's huge 1069 00:44:52,970 --> 00:44:51,240 this is why I could swallow a person the 1070 00:44:55,250 --> 00:44:52,980 size pretty much of the shark from Jaws 1071 00:44:57,950 --> 00:44:55,260 three which did swallow somebody whole 1072 00:45:01,010 --> 00:44:57,960 in fact if I recall correctly I didn't 1073 00:45:02,990 --> 00:45:01,020 see jaws 3. yeah no when they had me 1074 00:45:05,569 --> 00:45:03,000 down at uh years back they invited me 1075 00:45:07,490 --> 00:45:05,579 down to SeaWorld in Orlando for a behind 1076 00:45:09,410 --> 00:45:07,500 the scenes tour and all that they 1077 00:45:12,109 --> 00:45:09,420 weren't happy with me uh you know making 1078 00:45:13,849 --> 00:45:12,119 fun of the you know their orcas being 1079 00:45:15,589 --> 00:45:13,859 captivity and stuff like that so they 1080 00:45:17,150 --> 00:45:15,599 invited me down there and they actually 1081 00:45:19,250 --> 00:45:17,160 had they turned out jaw Street had been 1082 00:45:21,109 --> 00:45:19,260 filmed there and they had kept a sign 1083 00:45:23,990 --> 00:45:21,119 about the sharks or whatever and stuff 1084 00:45:25,910 --> 00:45:24,000 you know like uh dangerous sharks where 1085 00:45:26,990 --> 00:45:25,920 I forget what it says but it's in the 1086 00:45:28,309 --> 00:45:27,000 movie it's still

00:51:43,440 sisters I don't know what a shark pot is 1236 00:51:47,030 --> 00:51:44,960 called but 1237 00:51:48,530 --> 00:51:47,040 there's there's got to be more that's 1238 00:51:51,230 --> 00:51:48,540 not just one 1239 00:51:53,450 --> 00:51:51,240 so so I guess what we're asking is is 1240 00:51:55,730 --> 00:51:53,460 what kind of species of shark do we 1241 00:51:58,130 --> 00:51:55,740 think this was was it megalon was it not 1242 00:52:00,130 --> 00:51:58,140 you know if not what is it are there 1243 00:52:02,569 --> 00:52:00,140 more of them and all that jazz right 1244 00:52:04,430 --> 00:52:02,579 okay so let's start from the beginning 1245 00:52:07,069 --> 00:52:04,440 then so 1246 00:52:08,870 --> 00:52:07,079 um the whale carcass has some short 1247 00:52:11,569 --> 00:52:08,880 tooth marks on it you can kind of see 1248 00:52:13,370 --> 00:52:11,579 they're pretty triangular 1249 00:52:16,370 --> 00:52:13,380 um what was more telling was the wounds 1250 00:52:18,829 --> 00:52:16,380 on the Galapagos Giant and again thank 1251 00:52:20,290 --> 00:52:18,839 you Dr Simon Pierce 1252 00:52:23,210 --> 00:52:20,300 um sent me 1253 00:52:25,849 --> 00:52:23,220 massive photos I mean like so high 1254 00:52:28,730 --> 00:52:25,859 definition I can practically printed up 1255 00:52:30,109 --> 00:52:28,740 the whale shark full size okay and 1256 00:52:32,329 --> 00:52:30,119 there's one shot where you can see the 1257 00:52:35,450 --> 00:52:32,339 bite up close and you can see these 1258 00:52:38,270 --> 00:52:35,460 lashes from the teeth like that and so 1259 00:52:39,890 --> 00:52:38,280 the thing is is that they're very 1260 00:52:42,410 --> 00:52:39,900 pointy 1261 00:52:43,730 --> 00:52:42,420 okay so if I brought out like I have a 1262 00:52:45,829 --> 00:52:43,740 three inch white shark tooth in the 1263 00:52:48,829 --> 00:52:45,839 display case and you look at that it's 1264 00:52:51,710 --> 00:52:48,839 like a perfect triangle okay if you look 1265 00:52:54,230 --> 00:52:51,720 at the chub utensis tooth it's very 1266 00:52:56,450 --> 00:52:54,240 triangular okay now this is a couple of 1267 00:52:58,730 --> 00:52:56,460 teeth off center but still you can see 1268 00:53:02,450 --> 00:52:58,740 how it's shaped there but if I put this 1269 00:53:06,230 --> 00:53:02,460 Megalodon tooth beside it you see how 1270 00:53:08,150 --> 00:53:06,240 round It Is by comparison so truth 1271 00:53:11,390 --> 00:53:08,160 gouges from this 1272 00:53:13,130 --> 00:53:11,400 would be more like like Scoops you know 1273 00:53:15,410 --> 00:53:13,140 what I mean like an ice cream scoop sure 1274 00:53:19,790 --> 00:53:15,420 and they don't they don't match 1275 00:53:22,370 --> 00:53:19,800 unfortunately okay which means that it 1276 00:53:24,710 --> 00:53:22,380 suggests that it's not a Megalodon then 1277 00:53:26,089 --> 00:53:24,720 the other problem that we run into if we 1278 00:53:28,190 --> 00:53:26,099 were trying to say that the shark is 1279 00:53:29,930 --> 00:53:28,200 still alive and we could say oh well the 1280 00:53:31,309 --> 00:53:29,940 smaller sharks you know this is not a 1281 00:53:32,870 --> 00:53:31,319 full grown one maybe the teeth are not 1282 00:53:35,150 --> 00:53:32,880 as pointy or something like that or 1283 00:53:37,250 --> 00:53:35,160 maybe it's positioning it more with the 1284 00:53:40,970 --> 00:53:37,260 lower teeth which are more pointy the 1285 00:53:44,690 --> 00:53:40,980 problem is is that in order to have a 1286 00:53:47,690 --> 00:53:44,700 an animal to maintain itself to not go 1287 00:53:51,049 --> 00:53:50,270 hi Audrey you are welcome 1288 00:53:52,609 --> 00:53:51,059 um 1289 00:53:54,170 --> 00:53:52,619 you need a breeding population of at 1290 00:53:59,329 --> 00:53:54,180 least 500 animals 1291 00:54:01,309 --> 00:53:59,339 okay 500 adults if there were 540 to 50 1292 00:54:03,710 --> 00:54:01,319 foot megalon sharks swimming around out 1293 00:54:06,950 --> 00:54:03,720 there pretty sure people will be seeing 1294 00:54:09,650 --> 00:54:06,960 four foot five foot shark fins all over 1295 00:54:10,790 --> 00:54:09,660 the place you know there'd be attacks on 1296 00:54:15,230 --> 00:54:10,800 boats 1297 00:54:16,910 --> 00:54:15,240 more whale carcasses showing up all this 1298 00:54:18,650 --> 00:54:16,920 other stuff like that but we don't get 1299 00:54:20,870 --> 00:54:18,660 any of that we get these occasional 1300 00:54:24,069 --> 00:54:20,880 carcasses with these this feeding damage 1301 00:54:26,690 --> 00:54:24,079 on and stuff like that and that to me 1302 00:54:28,730 --> 00:54:26,700 means that what I believe is the case 1303 00:54:30,349 --> 00:54:28,740 and this was on Discovery 1304 00:54:32,089 --> 00:54:30,359 um I'm not sure if it was the same one 1305 00:54:34,609 --> 00:54:32,099 or not I think it was the same special 1306 00:54:36,349 --> 00:54:34,619 that they had it was called uh something 1307 00:54:37,630 --> 00:54:36,359 in the Kill Zone super predator in the 1308 00:54:39,530 --> 00:54:37,640 Kill Zone or something like that but uh 1309 00:54:41,210 --> 00:54:39,540 is that 1310 00:54:43,609 --> 00:54:41,220 marine biologists some of them believe 1311 00:54:45,589 --> 00:54:43,619 that great whites occasionally suffer 1312 00:54:48,170 --> 00:54:45,599 from what's called gigantism 1313 00:54:49,970 --> 00:54:48,180 and I I documented this in in Monsters 1314 00:54:51,650 --> 00:54:49,980 and mystery so if anybody's out there 1315 00:54:53,990 --> 00:54:51,660 has a chance to get the book I recommend 1316 00:54:55,910 --> 00:54:54,000 the Kindle version it has all the links 1317 00:54:57,950 --> 00:54:55,920 to everything all the scientific 1318 00:54:59,390 --> 00:54:57,960 references Etc so you've been go 1319 00:55:01,490 --> 00:54:59,400 wherever you want much easier than 1320 00:55:02,630 --> 00:55:01,500 trying to hand you know things stuff and 1321 00:55:04,790 --> 00:55:02,640 if you have Kindle unlimited I think you 1322 00:55:07,250 --> 00:55:04,800 can even read it for free but anyway 1323 00:55:09,589 --> 00:55:07,260 um the uh 1324 00:55:11,510 --> 00:55:09,599 they believe that gigantism occasionally 1325 00:55:13,130 --> 00:55:11,520 affects white sharks and it doesn't 1326 00:55:15,710 --> 00:55:13,140 affect just white sharks or other 1327 00:55:17,930 --> 00:55:15,720 species out there that 1328 00:55:19,609 --> 00:55:17,940 um it does affect for example there's a 1329 00:55:20,809 --> 00:55:19,619 in here we have an animal called the 1330 00:55:23,030 --> 00:55:20,819 American toad 1331 00:55:24,710 --> 00:55:23,040 I have one it's on my Facebook page my 1332 00:55:27,290 --> 00:55:24,720 daughter has a it lives outside of her 1333 00:55:28,849 --> 00:55:27,300 house and it's like our pet now okay and 1334 00:55:31,010 --> 00:55:28,859 the American toad gets to be maybe four 1335 00:55:33,530 --> 00:55:31,020 inches in body length it's a good sized 1336 00:55:35,210 --> 00:55:33,540 toad but sometimes they find females 1337 00:55:37,910 --> 00:55:35,220 that are eight inches long 1338 00:55:40,790 --> 00:55:37,920 which is ridiculously big and this toad 1339 00:55:43,370 --> 00:55:40,800 is suffered from gigantism so sharks 1340 00:55:45,650 --> 00:55:43,380 also have indeterminate growth as do 1341 00:55:48,230 --> 00:55:45,660 snakes and things like that I personally 1342 00:55:50,329 --> 00:55:48,240 when I was like a I don't know 10 or 11 1343 00:55:51,589 --> 00:55:50,339 I caught a predatory species of beetle 1344 00:55:53,510 --> 00:55:51,599 and it's in the book I remember them the 1345 00:55:54,829 --> 00:55:53,520 species right now and normally they only 1346 00:55:56,809 --> 00:55:54,839 get to be like an inch long and I got 1347 00:55:59,030 --> 00:55:56,819 one that was like three inches long I 1348 00:56:01,250 --> 00:55:59,040 mean Alive and Kicking get the [\h__\h] out 1349 00:56:04,130 --> 00:56:01,260 of me and whatever and stuff okay but uh 1350 00:56:06,710 --> 00:56:04,140 so gigantism is out there so 1351 00:56:08,450 --> 00:56:06,720 if it makes sense I mean the teeth The 1352 00:56:10,910 --> 00:56:08,460 Rake marks or the teeth match a great 1353 00:56:13,250 --> 00:56:10,920 white more number one the other thing is 1354 00:56:15,349 --> 00:56:13,260 the bite shape matches a great white 1355 00:56:17,390 --> 00:56:15,359 but most importantly if you have a great 1356 00:56:18,829 --> 00:56:17,400 white that doesn't stop growing it 1357 00:56:20,270 --> 00:56:18,839 doesn't slow down and it has this 1358 00:56:23,690 --> 00:56:20,280 gigantism thing 1359 00:56:26,329 --> 00:56:23,700 it turns into a monster see and unlike 1360 00:56:28,010 --> 00:56:26,339 human beings like I'm sure you know like 1361 00:56:30,170 --> 00:56:28,020 about have you ever heard of a man named 1362 00:56:32,750 --> 00:56:30,180 Robert Wadlow who is the tallest 1363 00:56:35,210 --> 00:56:32,760 documented human being in history he was 1364 00:56:36,530 --> 00:56:35,220 like a millimeter shy of nine feet or 1365 00:56:38,569 --> 00:56:36,540 something like that 1366 00:56:40,069 --> 00:56:38,579 but he was suffering from this growth 1367 00:56:41,630 --> 00:56:40,079 through you know messed him up and he 1368 00:56:43,250 --> 00:56:41,640 had acromegalia and if you walk with a 1369 00:56:46,069 --> 00:56:43,260 cane eventually he was crippled then he 1370 00:56:48,109 --> 00:56:46,079 died so our bodies don't respond well to 1371 00:56:51,410 --> 00:56:48,119 being eight or nine feet tall 1372 00:56:52,730 --> 00:56:51,420 but sharks can survive at Large Size we 1373 00:56:56,049 --> 00:56:52,740 know because we know we have 50 foot 1374 00:57:03,109 --> 00:56:58,670 the body weight is supported by the 1375 00:57:06,910 --> 00:57:03,119 water uh humans we get we have to deal 1376 00:57:10,490 --> 00:57:06,920 with the thing called gravity right so 1377 00:57:13,190 --> 00:57:10,500 we're always being pulled down and the 1378 00:57:16,730 --> 00:57:13,200 the gravity with our blood and 1379 00:57:19,010 --> 00:57:16,740 circulation system all of our organs uh 1380 00:57:21,349 --> 00:57:19,020 are completely stressed out when you get 1381 00:57:23,990 --> 00:57:21,359 over that's why we're just six feet tall 1382 00:57:27,370 --> 00:57:24,000 and we're not 10 feet tall gravity is 1383 00:57:32,630 --> 00:57:27,380 pulling us down but if you're a shark 1384 00:57:36,230 --> 00:57:32,640 and right and if you are a shark and 1385 00:57:38,630 --> 00:57:36,240 technically you never stop growing and 1386 00:57:42,170 --> 00:57:38,640 you're not dealing with gravity and and 1387 00:57:44,510 --> 00:57:42,180 you put in uh the giant effect on top of 1388 00:57:47,390 --> 00:57:44,520 that we're talking about a a huge huge 1389 00:57:49,069 --> 00:57:47,400 fish yes we'll see now indeterminate 1390 00:57:50,569 --> 00:57:49,079 growth means that the thing never stops 1391 00:57:53,030 --> 00:57:50,579 growing this is common for fish for 1392 00:57:55,309 --> 00:57:53,040 reptiles things like that but normally 1393 00:57:57,710 --> 00:57:55,319 in the wild the they grow to a certain 1394 00:58:00,410 --> 00:57:57,720 size and then they continue to grow but 1395 00:58:02,329 --> 00:58:00,420 the growth slows down so instead of 1396 00:58:04,130 --> 00:58:02,339 growing a foot a year they might grow 1397 00:58:06,349 --> 00:58:04,140 two inches a year or something like that 1398 00:58:08,569 --> 00:58:06,359 you see they keep growing like low long 1399 00:58:09,829 --> 00:58:08,579 the crocodile you know he reaches a 1400 00:58:12,829 --> 00:58:09,839 certain size and then he slowed down 1401 00:58:14,930 --> 00:58:12,839 okay so the thing is old age eventually 1402 00:58:17,450 --> 00:58:14,940 puts a stop to that but if you have 1403 00:58:18,650 --> 00:58:17,460 something where it doesn't slow down now 1404 00:58:20,809 --> 00:58:18,660 you get these great whites with 1405 00:58:23,030 --> 00:58:20,819 gigantism and that can explain the Beast 1406 00:58:24,349 --> 00:58:23,040 of Briar Island the Galapagos Giant and 1407 00:58:27,049 --> 00:58:24,359 whatever the heck we're going to name is 1408 00:58:29,690 --> 00:58:27,059 this prior Island Behemoth there's the 1409 00:58:32,630 --> 00:58:29,700 name right there okay this new one but 1410 00:58:34,790 --> 00:58:32,640 and the thing is is though now if we 1411 00:58:37,789 --> 00:58:34,800 wanted a mega shark population out there 1412 00:58:40,730 --> 00:58:37,799 we'd pray for these sharks to be mating 1413 00:58:42,829 --> 00:58:40,740 and you know making passing on that Gene 1414 00:58:44,569 --> 00:58:42,839 for gigantism so that they'd be all over 1415 00:58:46,730 --> 00:58:44,579 the place and then we'd have 30 40 foot 1416 00:58:49,069 --> 00:58:46,740 great whites you know they wouldn't be 1417 00:58:52,069 --> 00:58:49,079 megalons but they'd be impressive as all 1418 00:58:53,930 --> 00:58:52,079 hell okay but the problem is that it's 1419 00:58:55,970 --> 00:58:53,940 probably like one in a few thousand or 1420 00:58:59,270 --> 00:58:55,980 one ten thousand animals they're very 1421 00:59:01,609 --> 00:58:59,280 rare and they don't breed because 1422 00:59:03,950 --> 00:59:01,619 like well I don't know if do you know 1423 00:59:06,190 --> 00:59:03,960 how like white sharks mate 1424 00:59:11,270 --> 00:59:06,200 I I no 1425 00:59:13,970 --> 00:59:11,280 it's it's very violent okay so basically 1426 00:59:16,849 --> 00:59:13,980 okay so when a lion mates for example 1427 00:59:19,130 --> 00:59:16,859 the male comes up he grabs the female by 1428 00:59:22,250 --> 00:59:19,140 the nape with his teeth and he pulls up 1429 00:59:24,170 --> 00:59:22,260 on her neck like that okay and that 1430 00:59:26,150 --> 00:59:24,180 basically instills a reaction like when 1431 00:59:27,890 --> 00:59:26,160 she's a kitten and the mother carries 1432 00:59:35,109 --> 00:59:27,900 them by the neck and they go limp are 1433 00:59:39,650 --> 00:59:37,430 so that's how the male is able to 1434 00:59:43,609 --> 00:59:39,660 convince the female lioness the Lioness 1435 00:59:45,890 --> 00:59:43,619 told still okay so they can procreate so 1436 00:59:47,990 --> 00:59:45,900 they can copulate okay we're gonna be 1437 00:59:49,910 --> 00:59:48,000 very scientific here all right so that's 1438 00:59:53,030 --> 00:59:49,920 what happens white sharks do something 1439 00:59:56,089 --> 00:59:53,040 similar the male comes up and he grabs 1440 00:59:58,309 --> 00:59:56,099 her by the gills like that and he bites 1441 01:00:00,349 --> 00:59:58,319 but it's not a soft bite this ain't a 1442 01:00:02,150 --> 01:00:00,359 gentle bite yeah I mean you just look it 1443 01:00:03,890 --> 01:00:02,160 up you'll see wounds where the gills are 1444 01:00:06,950 --> 01:00:03,900 exposed and these it looks like it 1445 01:00:09,170 --> 01:00:06,960 should be dead okay and that but they do 1446 01:00:10,970 --> 01:00:09,180 regenerate and within a year that wound 1447 01:00:13,309 --> 01:00:10,980 is completely gone apparently a little 1448 01:00:15,170 --> 01:00:13,319 few scars or whatever stuff but so his 1449 01:00:18,770 --> 01:00:15,180 job is he bites her on the neck and he 1450 01:00:21,670 --> 01:00:18,780 pins her down to the seabed okay and uh 1451 01:00:24,170 --> 01:00:21,680 you know does his thing 1452 01:00:27,470 --> 01:00:24,180 yeah okay and then you have little 1453 01:00:29,030 --> 01:00:27,480 sharks okay so and the males tend to be 1454 01:00:30,890 --> 01:00:29,040 a little smaller than the female so if 1455 01:00:33,170 --> 01:00:30,900 the female is like like um deep blue if 1456 01:00:36,289 --> 01:00:33,180 she's 20 feet long like they say a huge 1457 01:00:37,430 --> 01:00:36,299 male might be 17 or 18 feet so there's a 1458 01:00:40,130 --> 01:00:37,440 little bit of size difference the female 1459 01:00:43,069 --> 01:00:40,140 tends to be larger okay 1460 01:00:44,210 --> 01:00:43,079 um so now think about this if you're a 1461 01:00:47,089 --> 01:00:44,220 uh 1462 01:00:49,549 --> 01:00:47,099 an 18-foot male in his prime and you 1463 01:00:51,170 --> 01:00:49,559 approach a 42 foot female 1464 01:00:52,670 --> 01:00:51,180 do you think you're gonna grab her by 1465 01:00:53,630 --> 01:00:52,680 the neck and wrestle her down to the 1466 01:00:55,789 --> 01:00:53,640 seabed 1467 01:00:58,730 --> 01:00:55,799 or are you going to get eaten I've seen 1468 01:01:00,470 --> 01:00:58,740 that movie yeah that's right right right 1469 01:01:02,089 --> 01:01:00,480 yeah I mean seriously that's what's 1470 01:01:04,730 --> 01:01:02,099 gonna happen and if it was the opposite 1471 01:01:06,349 --> 01:01:04,740 if it was a 36 foot or a 32 foot male 1472 01:01:08,450 --> 01:01:06,359 and he started approaching a female 1473 01:01:10,309 --> 01:01:08,460 she's going to run for her life 1474 01:01:12,589 --> 01:01:10,319 she doesn't want those jaws crunching 1475 01:01:14,329 --> 01:01:12,599 down on her and she'd get eaten see so 1476 01:01:16,370 --> 01:01:14,339 unless you had two of them that were in 1477 01:01:18,470 --> 01:01:16,380 a similar size range the odds of that 1478 01:01:20,750 --> 01:01:18,480 happening on this whole planet and 1479 01:01:22,549 --> 01:01:20,760 millions of cubic miles of ocean you 1480 01:01:24,770 --> 01:01:22,559 know what I mean is very very unlikely 1481 01:01:26,270 --> 01:01:24,780 Could Happen given enough time but I 1482 01:01:27,109 --> 01:01:26,280 don't see it happening in my lifetime or 1483 01:01:29,809 --> 01:01:27,119 anything like 1484 01:01:31,910 --> 01:01:29,819 so all right so what you're suggesting 1485 01:01:34,130 --> 01:01:31,920 and uh we've got to break to a 1486 01:01:36,950 --> 01:01:34,140 commercial but so what you're suggesting 1487 01:01:39,170 --> 01:01:36,960 is the one that did this attack by the 1488 01:01:41,750 --> 01:01:39,180 way uh this was this was in the 1489 01:01:46,089 --> 01:01:41,760 Northeast this is near Maine 1490 01:01:49,130 --> 01:01:46,099 which one uh the the 1491 01:01:52,210 --> 01:01:49,140 documentary yeah prior Island yeah it's 1492 01:01:55,970 --> 01:01:52,220 right up there a little past there uh 1493 01:01:57,890 --> 01:01:55,980 yeah where they film Jaws so 1494 01:02:00,589 --> 01:01:57,900 um I don't know what it is about that 1495 01:02:03,950 --> 01:02:00,599 area but uh you're you're suggesting 1496 01:02:05,210 --> 01:02:03,960 that this may be a one-off shark that 1497 01:02:07,910 --> 01:02:05,220 there isn't 1498 01:02:09,950 --> 01:02:07,920 it you know five I think the Bay of 1499 01:02:12,109 --> 01:02:09,960 Fundy seems to be a hot spot for Mega 1500 01:02:14,210 --> 01:02:12,119 Sharks because both the Visa Briar 1501 01:02:15,710 --> 01:02:14,220 Island and this one for the the evidence 1502 01:02:17,809 --> 01:02:15,720 of them they were feeding in the same 1503 01:02:19,970 --> 01:02:17,819 area so it looks like there's and it's 1504 01:02:22,430 --> 01:02:19,980 not the same animal because it was only 1505 01:02:24,650 --> 01:02:22,440 filmed a year or two earlier a 26 footer 1506 01:02:25,730 --> 01:02:24,660 is not turning into a 32-footer in a 1507 01:02:28,549 --> 01:02:25,740 year or two 1508 01:02:30,589 -->

year old shark 1791 01:15:31,250 --> 01:15:27,719 it could be or if it's growing super 1792 01:15:33,530 --> 01:15:31,260 fast it might only be 30 or 40 years old 1793 01:15:36,290 --> 01:15:33,540 you know I mean anything's possible 1794 01:15:40,490 --> 01:15:36,300 right I don't know how gigantism Works 1795 01:15:42,350 --> 01:15:40,500 in fish to be honest you know the um uh 1796 01:15:44,930 --> 01:15:42,360 what what is it about the Pacific 1797 01:15:48,410 --> 01:15:44,940 Northwest when it comes to these mega 1798 01:15:51,110 --> 01:15:48,420 sharks uh as opposed to say Australia 1799 01:15:53,689 --> 01:15:51,120 where we hear about things or up near 1800 01:15:56,630 --> 01:15:53,699 San Francisco you know we'd be here by 1801 01:15:58,669 --> 01:15:56,640 great white sharks uh prior Island ones 1802 01:15:59,930 --> 01:15:58,679 are on the Atlantic right actually not 1803 01:16:02,209 --> 01:15:59,940 the Pacific 1804 01:16:03,709 --> 01:16:02,219 um those two um Galapagos obviously it's 1805 01:16:04,910 --> 01:16:03,719 way out in the Pacific and stuff so I 1806 01:16:07,130 --> 01:16:04,920 mean there have been a lot of places 1807 01:16:09,709 --> 01:16:07,140 Australia was one of them you know so 1808 01:16:11,330 --> 01:16:09,719 there's a Cosmopolitan species I mean so 1809 01:16:12,950 --> 01:16:11,340 you're going to have them here there you 1810 01:16:15,470 --> 01:16:12,960 know wherever they are 1811 01:16:16,850 --> 01:16:15,480 it's it's such a fascinating subject to 1812 01:16:19,010 --> 01:16:16,860 me and 1813 01:16:22,790 --> 01:16:19,020 um would it surprise you 1814 01:16:26,270 --> 01:16:22,800 if uh a Megalodon did surface like 1815 01:16:29,450 --> 01:16:26,280 Bigfoot or Loch Ness or one of these uh 1816 01:16:34,130 --> 01:16:29,460 Cryptids uh these mythological creatures 1817 01:16:37,729 --> 01:16:34,140 uh would it surprise you to you know 1818 01:16:41,810 --> 01:16:37,739 the things I've seen 1819 01:16:45,110 --> 01:16:41,820 I mean like uh like nothing surprises me 1820 01:16:46,910 --> 01:16:45,120 anymore it's kind of like that uh that 1821 01:16:50,209 --> 01:16:46,920 scene from 1822 01:16:52,070 --> 01:16:50,219 and yes I watched the uh 1823 01:16:56,090 --> 01:16:52,080 Twilight movies 1824 01:16:58,070 --> 01:16:56,100 okay I I admit it and uh where there's 1825 01:16:59,630 --> 01:16:58,080 one of them where she uh discovers that 1826 01:17:01,790 --> 01:16:59,640 werewolves are real 1827 01:17:03,530 --> 01:17:01,800 and she's writing and sending an email 1828 01:17:04,910 --> 01:17:03,540 saying are all the Legends troops she 1829 01:17:06,229 --> 01:17:04,920 knew about vampires now they're a 1830 01:17:10,010 --> 01:17:06,239 werewolves you know this type of stuff 1831 01:17:12,590 --> 01:17:10,020 so it wouldn't surprise me I mean well I 1832 01:17:14,450 --> 01:17:12,600 wouldn't be like like astonished let's 1833 01:17:16,250 --> 01:17:14,460 put it that way but I I would be a 1834 01:17:17,750 --> 01:17:16,260 little surprised based on the fact that 1835 01:17:20,149 --> 01:17:17,760 nothing there's nothing out there 1836 01:17:21,950 --> 01:17:20,159 suggests that based on the morphology of 1837 01:17:23,090 --> 01:17:21,960 the fish the diet of the fish that type 1838 01:17:26,030 --> 01:17:23,100 of stuff 1839 01:17:28,250 --> 01:17:26,040 you know so I mean a white shark that's 1840 01:17:30,350 --> 01:17:28,260 that big is going to be fairly slow 1841 01:17:31,850 --> 01:17:30,360 moving it's probably going to be more 1842 01:17:33,649 --> 01:17:31,860 cautious it's probably going to learn 1843 01:17:35,510 --> 01:17:33,659 that ships are dangerous things like 1844 01:17:37,610 --> 01:17:35,520 that and it won't be lurking on the 1845 01:17:39,590 --> 01:17:37,620 surface as often and stuff like that if 1846 01:17:41,570 --> 01:17:39,600 you see the fin you might only see half 1847 01:17:43,430 --> 01:17:41,580 of it you don't see the whole animal or 1848 01:17:44,870 --> 01:17:43,440 people think you're a basking shark and 1849 01:17:46,910 --> 01:17:44,880 you just you're written off you know 1850 01:17:49,010 --> 01:17:46,920 that type of stuff but it's a rare 1851 01:17:52,070 --> 01:17:49,020 creature you know and it's more drawn to 1852 01:17:55,669 --> 01:17:52,080 carrying meaning dead carcasses easy 1853 01:17:57,830 --> 01:17:55,679 meals that type of stuff so but you know 1854 01:17:59,689 --> 01:17:57,840 if this isn't a megavon species was out 1855 01:18:01,810 --> 01:17:59,699 there I'd be happy to fish for them you 1856 01:18:05,689 --> 01:18:01,820 know I'll fish for anything 1857 01:18:08,270 --> 01:18:05,699 aside from the movie Jaws you know but 1858 01:18:10,790 --> 01:18:08,280 now we have you know Shark Week it's one 1859 01:18:13,310 --> 01:18:10,800 of the biggest events in in television 1860 01:18:14,510 --> 01:18:13,320 what what why the fascination with 1861 01:18:16,850 --> 01:18:14,520 sharks 1862 01:18:19,250 --> 01:18:16,860 well I think Jaws was responsible for a 1863 01:18:21,350 --> 01:18:19,260 lot of that as you mentioned you know it 1864 01:18:23,209 --> 01:18:21,360 was a huge Blockbuster it was actually 1865 01:18:26,270 --> 01:18:23,219 set at the stage for all future summer 1866 01:18:29,149 --> 01:18:26,280 Blockbusters and it's a scary thing I 1867 01:18:32,689 --> 01:18:29,159 mean the water is being in the ocean 1868 01:18:34,970 --> 01:18:32,699 even in a lake is kind of creepy if you 1869 01:18:37,729 --> 01:18:34,980 look at people I mean 1870 01:18:40,250 --> 01:18:37,739 without our technology we're not really 1871 01:18:42,830 --> 01:18:40,260 the apex predator that we think we are 1872 01:18:45,709 --> 01:18:42,840 you know or small 1873 01:18:48,649 --> 01:18:45,719 we're slow on land or slugs in the water 1874 01:18:50,270 --> 01:18:48,659 we don't have talons we don't have sharp 1875 01:18:51,649 --> 01:18:50,280 teeth we don't have the strength of a 1876 01:18:54,530 --> 01:18:51,659 chimpanzee 1877 01:18:56,810 --> 01:18:54,540 what do we have honestly other than our 1878 01:18:58,850 --> 01:18:56,820 minds and technology so when you're in 1879 01:19:00,050 --> 01:18:58,860 the water if you're in the ocean like 1880 01:19:03,050 --> 01:19:00,060 you know with a light preserver on 1881 01:19:05,149 --> 01:19:03,060 bobbing around you're a 1882 01:19:07,850 --> 01:19:05,159 you're a topwater lure 1883 01:19:09,649 --> 01:19:07,860 your bait you know like one of those 1884 01:19:11,689 --> 01:19:09,659 like when you put out a minnow under a 1885 01:19:13,070 --> 01:19:11,699 bobber that's you basically and there's 1886 01:19:15,110 --> 01:19:13,080 many things out there the cannon will 1887 01:19:16,790 --> 01:19:15,120 eat you and the scariest part about it 1888 01:19:19,490 --> 01:19:16,800 and the reason why the Coronas Rising a 1889 01:19:21,830 --> 01:19:19,500 series is so successful is that being 1890 01:19:24,290 --> 01:19:21,840 consumed by something whether it's a 1891 01:19:26,990 --> 01:19:24,300 fish or a reptile or something like that 1892 01:19:28,550 --> 01:19:27,000 being eaten alive is one of the possibly 1893 01:19:29,870 --> 01:19:28,560 the most terrifying thing that could 1894 01:19:31,610 --> 01:19:29,880 happen to someone 1895 01:19:34,189 --> 01:19:31,620 you know that you're going to be ripped 1896 01:19:36,350 --> 01:19:34,199 apart chewed up swallowed down and then 1897 01:19:39,290 --> 01:19:36,360 it no longer exists because of this 1898 01:19:40,970 --> 01:19:39,300 giant predator and in the water you 1899 01:19:43,430 --> 01:19:40,980 can't even see it coming 1900 01:19:44,750 --> 01:19:43,440 you know you're on the surface looking 1901 01:19:47,510 --> 01:19:44,760 around remember the poor girl at the 1902 01:19:49,250 --> 01:19:47,520 beginning of Jaws nighttime skinny 1903 01:19:53,270 --> 01:19:49,260 dipping all sudden 1904 01:19:56,930 --> 01:19:53,280 you know it's terrifying well I told you 1905 01:20:00,350 --> 01:19:56,940 uh with my friend Jeff he said it came 1906 01:20:03,050 --> 01:20:00,360 out of the from from beneath him he 1907 01:20:05,510 --> 01:20:03,060 watched it come out of the black and and 1908 01:20:07,490 --> 01:20:05,520 just want to hit him yeah yes yeah yeah 1909 01:20:09,530 --> 01:20:07,500 it was in mid-charge it must have been 1910 01:20:13,610 --> 01:20:09,540 like here's my ticket you know and boom 1911 01:20:21,830 --> 01:20:16,870 um what uh 1912 01:20:23,390 --> 01:20:21,840 art we picture okay and dude this is 1913 01:20:27,649 --> 01:20:23,400 just like you were just saying with the 1914 01:20:31,070 --> 01:20:27,659 movie Just we picture uh great whites 1915 01:20:34,610 --> 01:20:31,080 tiger sharks and other sharks that um uh 1916 01:20:38,390 --> 01:20:34,620 are purely Predators they're just out 1917 01:20:42,590 --> 01:20:38,400 and looking for us and things that are 1918 01:20:46,250 --> 01:20:42,600 alive and and they get is that is that a 1919 01:20:49,010 --> 01:20:46,260 fair classification or are they out 1920 01:20:51,110 --> 01:20:49,020 eating license plates and and garbage on 1921 01:20:53,270 --> 01:20:51,120 the bottom of the ocean 1922 01:20:54,709 --> 01:20:53,280 garage I like the Star Wars reference 1923 01:20:57,590 --> 01:20:54,719 that was awesome 1924 01:20:59,689 --> 01:20:57,600 um well it's not like 1925 01:21:01,729 --> 01:20:59,699 sharks are out to get people 1926 01:21:04,010 --> 01:21:01,739 although to be honest with all the shark 1927 01:21:05,270 --> 01:21:04,020 Finning that goes on out there and the 1928 01:21:06,830 --> 01:21:05,280 millions of sharks that are slaughtered 1929 01:21:09,470 --> 01:21:06,840 every year for their fins I wouldn't 1930 01:21:10,669 --> 01:21:09,480 blame them right honestly and as a 1931 01:21:13,070 --> 01:21:10,679 conservationist I'm going to take a 1932 01:21:17,030 --> 01:21:13,080 moment and say hey people shark fin soup 1933 01:21:19,970 --> 01:21:17,040 does not work for that Viagra Cialis 1934 01:21:21,590 --> 01:21:19,980 okay leave the Sharks alone 1935 01:21:23,390 --> 01:21:21,600 but anyway 1936 01:21:25,070 --> 01:21:23,400 um I am sure there are instances when a 1937 01:21:27,169 --> 01:21:25,080 shark sees a person flailing in the 1938 01:21:29,209 --> 01:21:27,179 water says oh this is an easy meal and 1939 01:21:30,890 --> 01:21:29,219 it gives in to its instincts I'm sure 1940 01:21:32,750 --> 01:21:30,900 that a lot of the attacks on people are 1941 01:21:34,490 --> 01:21:32,760 accidental or maybe they're accidental 1942 01:21:36,110 --> 01:21:34,500 and the shark says oh I taste blood this 1943 01:21:38,450 --> 01:21:36,120 might be good to eat and they keep after 1944 01:21:40,490 --> 01:21:38,460 you okay but I don't think it's an 1945 01:21:42,169 --> 01:21:40,500 organized type of attack on sighting 1946 01:21:44,689 --> 01:21:42,179 because people are in the you know in 1947 01:21:46,070 --> 01:21:44,699 the beaches all the time and such and uh 1948

01:21:56,209 --> 01:21:54,780 question yeah yeah oh license plates and 1952 01:21:57,770 --> 01:21:56,219 stuff like that yeah you're thinking of 1953 01:22:00,290 --> 01:21:57,780 tiger sharks and

actually had that happen to me 1986 01:23:24,950 --> 01:23:22,020 it was weird I swear I had that happen 1987 01:23:27,350 --> 01:23:24,960 to me I had this ear doctor 1988 01:23:32,229 --> 01:23:27,360 um this is years ago I'm a young 1989 01:23:37,370 --> 01:23:32,239 strapping lad right and he's he goes hey 1990 01:23:41,030 --> 01:23:37,380 you've do you surf and I go what 1991 01:23:44,270 --> 01:23:41,040 you've got Surfer ear you surf you work 1992 01:23:48,950 --> 01:23:44,280 out I said you know what man uh 1993 01:23:52,970 --> 01:23:48,960 gotta go I gotta go I don't even want to 1994 01:23:54,110 --> 01:23:52,980 know the next question uh I'm out of 1995 01:23:58,070 --> 01:23:54,120 here 1996 01:24:01,010 --> 01:23:58,080 um but what about okay what how did 1997 01:24:03,950 --> 01:24:01,020 we know 65 million years ago asteroid 1998 01:24:07,130 --> 01:24:03,960 hits the hits hits the planet whites out 1999 01:24:11,930 --> 01:24:07,140 the dinosaurs ah the sharks live through 2000 01:24:19,010 --> 01:24:15,050 um Okay so 2001 01:24:21,410 --> 01:24:19,020 a lot of people have this misconception 2002 01:24:23,689 --> 01:24:21,420 that megalodon or any of the mega two 2003 01:24:25,970 --> 01:24:23,699 sharks that are in that lineage were 2004 01:24:27,410 --> 01:24:25,980 alive at the time of the dinosaurs and 2005 01:24:31,610 --> 01:24:27,420 that is not the case 2006 01:24:34,610 --> 01:24:31,620 in fact there were no large predatory 2007 01:24:37,010 --> 01:24:34,620 sharks in the oceans at the end of the 2008 01:24:39,950 --> 01:24:37,020 Cretaceous Period they had all been 2009 01:24:42,470 --> 01:24:39,960 apparently consumed by mosasaurs and I'm 2010 01:24:44,810 --> 01:24:42,480 not kidding as a scientific fact 2011 01:24:47,149 --> 01:24:44,820 you have these 50 60 foot Marine monitor 2012 01:24:48,830 --> 01:24:47,159 lizards swimming around and sharks were 2013 01:24:52,130 --> 01:24:48,840 an ideal meal for them and they were 2014 01:24:55,010 --> 01:24:52,140 everywhere everywhere freshwater salt 2015 01:24:56,930 --> 01:24:55,020 water I mean like forget it so the only 2016 01:24:58,550 --> 01:24:56,940 sharks left like the biggest shark I 2017 01:25:00,770 --> 01:24:58,560 think that was still around was a thing 2018 01:25:02,810 --> 01:25:00,780 called Credo lamina which was only about 2019 01:25:04,370 --> 01:25:02,820 nine or ten feet long 2020 01:25:05,450 --> 01:25:04,380 that was the biggest predatory shark 2021 01:25:06,830 --> 01:25:05,460 that was left at the end of the 2022 01:25:09,169 --> 01:25:06,840 Cretaceous when the dinosaurs were still 2023 01:25:12,290 --> 01:25:09,179 there okay so now after the asteroid 2024 01:25:14,689 --> 01:25:12,300 impact Credo lamina and many other fish 2025 01:25:16,669 --> 01:25:14,699 survived you know different types of 2026 01:25:18,830 --> 01:25:16,679 fish prehistoric fish Etc different ones 2027 01:25:21,110 --> 01:25:18,840 went extinct different times without the 2028 01:25:24,350 --> 01:25:21,120 mosasaurs there as the apex predator 2029 01:25:26,209 --> 01:25:24,360 that Niche became available 2030 01:25:28,850 --> 01:25:26,219 and then what happened is Credo lamina 2031 01:25:30,410 --> 01:25:28,860 began to grow and grow and grow because 2032 01:25:33,110 --> 01:25:30,420 nothing was eating it 2033 01:25:37,850 --> 01:25:33,120 does that make sense you know sort of 2034 01:25:41,270 --> 01:25:37,860 sort of but uh I 2035 01:25:44,030 --> 01:25:41,280 um in my limited research uh when it 2036 01:25:46,550 --> 01:25:44,040 comes to this over the years 2037 01:25:50,149 --> 01:25:46,560 um I thought that the great white shark 2038 01:25:54,830 --> 01:25:50,159 as a species was 75 to 100 million years 2039 01:25:58,010 --> 01:25:54,840 old no and it it is not no and then and 2040 01:26:00,830 --> 01:25:58,020 I I I I thought that I had also read 2041 01:26:04,970 --> 01:26:00,840 that Megalodon didn't go extinct until 2042 01:26:07,970 --> 01:26:04,980 uh two to five million years ago 3.6 2043 01:26:12,290 --> 01:26:07,980 million years ago is the accepted Norm 2044 01:26:14,570 --> 01:26:12,300 right now for Megalodon uh let's see I 2045 01:26:16,370 --> 01:26:14,580 have some I mean I got so many shark 2046 01:26:20,450 --> 01:26:16,380 teeth over there but I'm gonna pull up 2047 01:26:23,030 --> 01:26:20,460 the numbers for you so that we have it 2048 01:26:25,189 --> 01:26:23,040 of course despite what my readers think 2049 01:26:26,510 --> 01:26:25,199 I am not omniscient and cannot remember 2050 01:26:27,950 --> 01:26:26,520 everything 2051 01:26:30,530 --> 01:26:27,960 so 2052 01:26:31,669 --> 01:26:30,540 yes I believe me I've tried it doesn't 2053 01:26:33,229 --> 01:26:31,679 work 2054 01:26:36,169 --> 01:26:33,239 um 2055 01:26:38,209 --> 01:26:36,179 so let's see we got here so there is a 2056 01:26:40,850 --> 01:26:38,219 one of the first or the maybe the first 2057 01:26:44,689 --> 01:26:40,860 well-known megatoo shark is 2058 01:26:48,350 --> 01:26:44,699 ototus obliqueus and this fish 2059 01:26:50,870 --> 01:26:48,360 live let's see here from the Paleo scene 2060 01:26:53,450 --> 01:26:50,880 so that would have been about 66 million 2061 01:26:57,590 --> 01:26:53,460 years ago okay so after the dinosaurs 2062 01:27:00,070 --> 01:26:57,600 were gone it evolved and until the 2063 01:27:03,709 --> 01:27:00,080 plyocene which was 2064 01:27:06,950 --> 01:27:03,719 5.33 million years ago now this fish was 2065 01:27:09,830 --> 01:27:06,960 around 30 feet long the size of a well a 2066 01:27:12,590 --> 01:27:09,840 monster great white let's say okay 2067 01:27:14,510 --> 01:27:12,600 so that one was one of that that's 2068 01:27:17,510 --> 01:27:14,520 considered to be an early ancestor of 2069 01:27:20,030 --> 01:27:17,520 Megalodon and I can go through all the 2070 01:27:22,970 --> 01:27:20,040 different species and stuff but you had 2071 01:27:26,990 --> 01:27:22,980 um so you had a totus obliqueus you had 2072 01:27:28,430 --> 01:27:27,000 gosh let me see a totus angosteidens you 2073 01:27:30,229 --> 01:27:28,440 had I mean there's a whole bunch of them 2074 01:27:32,450 --> 01:27:30,239 there's the shark changed and evolved 2075 01:27:34,610 --> 01:27:32,460 and grew bit by bit by bit over millions 2076 01:27:37,910 --> 01:27:34,620 and millions of years 2077 01:27:45,610 --> 01:27:41,870 live from 23 to 3.6 million years ago 2078 01:27:48,470 --> 01:27:45,620 so it didn't evolve until 2079 01:27:52,330 --> 01:27:48,480 43 million years after the dinosaurs 2080 01:27:56,570 --> 01:27:55,669 what would take out the the Megalodon 2081 01:27:58,790 --> 01:27:56,580 though 2082 01:28:01,850 --> 01:27:58,800 and I mean why did Megalodon go extinct 2083 01:28:04,129 --> 01:28:01,860 yeah how I'm just trying to understand 2084 01:28:07,550 --> 01:28:04,139 here and I'm sure everybody's thinking 2085 01:28:09,410 --> 01:28:07,560 the same thing did did the Great Whites 2086 01:28:13,129 --> 01:28:09,420 win this battle 2087 01:28:16,070 --> 01:28:13,139 well so I mean you see a lot of theories 2088 01:28:17,590 --> 01:28:16,080 that get put out there about stuff and 2089 01:28:20,209 --> 01:28:17,600 some in my opinion are a little more 2090 01:28:22,250 --> 01:28:20,219 sensationalized than others and what you 2091 01:28:23,209 --> 01:28:22,260 know why Megalodon died off I did an 2092 01:28:26,450 --> 01:28:23,219 interview 2093 01:28:27,709 --> 01:28:26,460 about this I think it was last year or 2094 01:28:29,450 --> 01:28:27,719 something like that I'm not really sure 2095 01:28:31,189 --> 01:28:29,460 but uh 2096 01:28:34,610 --> 01:28:31,199 you know the Megalodon is big business 2097 01:28:35,870 --> 01:28:34,620 so its Extinction is a Hot Topic and 2098 01:28:38,390 --> 01:28:35,880 there's been a lot of theories put out 2099 01:28:40,970 --> 01:28:38,400 there about it there was one a few years 2100 01:28:44,570 --> 01:28:40,980 back I I would say a very enthusiastic 2101 01:28:46,010 --> 01:28:44,580 one that energy from a supernova wiped 2102 01:28:47,750 --> 01:28:46,020 out the shark 2103 01:28:50,570 --> 01:28:47,760 you know people were like oh yeah I took 2104 01:28:53,030 --> 01:28:50,580 this cosmic energy explosion to kill off 2105 01:28:54,950 --> 01:28:53,040 this indestructible monster I think a 2106 01:28:56,510 --> 01:28:54,960 lot of people like that idea the problem 2107 01:28:59,090 --> 01:28:56,520 was is that when this Theory came out 2108 01:29:01,669 --> 01:28:59,100 everybody thought that the shark died 2109 01:29:03,649 --> 01:29:01,679 off 2.6 million years ago which was when 2110 01:29:05,149 --> 01:29:03,659 this cosmic explosion took place then 2111 01:29:08,330 --> 01:29:05,159 evidence came out that it actually died 2112 01:29:10,310 --> 01:29:08,340 around off 3.6 million years ago so they 2113 01:29:11,930 --> 01:29:10,320 were off by a million years so obviously 2114 01:29:16,490 --> 01:29:11,940 that theory was not going to hold water 2115 01:29:21,229 --> 01:29:18,350 right so 2116 01:29:24,290 --> 01:29:21,239 my theory and I I try to base these 2117 01:29:26,750 --> 01:29:24,300 things on on logic if you have a 2118 01:29:29,990 --> 01:29:26,760 Cosmopolitan species that means a 2119 01:29:33,709 --> 01:29:30,000 species that's all over the world okay 2120 01:29:35,990 --> 01:29:33,719 it takes a lot for that animal for that 2121 01:29:37,790 --> 01:29:36,000 species to go extinct because there 2122 01:29:40,070 --> 01:29:37,800 could be populations that survive here 2123 01:29:41,750 --> 01:29:40,080 or there you know if the planet shifts 2124 01:29:43,430 --> 01:29:41,760 and the temperatures change and some 2125 01:29:44,810 --> 01:29:43,440 areas become warmer or cooler and stuff 2126 01:29:47,390 --> 01:29:44,820 like that like we're experiencing now 2127 01:29:49,490 --> 01:29:47,400 okay it doesn't matter they can move to 2128 01:29:51,770 --> 01:29:49,500 different parts if there was a you know 2129 01:29:54,229 --> 01:29:51,780 a food shortage in one spot you know 2130 01:29:55,970 --> 01:29:54,239 there's others you know populations that 2131 01:29:57,890 --> 01:29:55,980 are going to pick up the slack and stuff 2132 01:29:59,570 --> 01:29:57,900 like that you know or if the Isthmus of 2133 01:30:01,669 --> 01:29:59,580 Panama have you know closed off certain 2134 01:30:04,490 --> 01:30:01,679 corridors or whatever it might be you 2135 01:30:06,169 --> 01:30:04,500 know so these animals went through 2136 01:30:07,790 --> 01:30:06,179 different ice ages and things like that 2137 01:30:09,830 --> 01:30:07,800 temperature rises and Falls that they 2138 01:30:13,250 --> 01:30:09,840 were still there and then 3.6 million 2139 01:30:17,350 --> 01:30:15,830 I equate this to the plyosaurs that I 2140 01:30:20,090 --> 01:30:17,360 write about micronus Horizon series 2141 01:30:22,370 --> 01:30:20,100 these giant sperm whale size marine 2142 01:30:24,290 --> 01:30:22,380 reptiles that had Jaws that could crush 2143 01:30:26,450 --> 01:30:24,300 a car and then all of a sudden they died 2144 01:30:28,970 --> 01:30:26,460 off around 90 million years ago 2145 01:30:30,890 --> 01:30:28,980 well interestingly they died off right 2146 01:30:32,450 --> 01:30:30,900 after the ichthyosaurus which means fish 2147 01:30:36,169 --> 01:30:32,460 lizards I don't know if you know what 2148 01:30:38,090 --> 01:30:36,179 the atheosaur is I've seen pictures it 2149 01:30:40,490 --> 01:30:38,100 looks like a dolphin with a long face 2150 01:30:41,510 --> 01:30:40,500 and a lot of sharp teeth okay yep so 2151 01:30:44,750 --> 01:30:41,520 they look like literally look like 2152 01:30:46,310 --> 01:30:44,760 dolphins okay and if these words range 2153 01:30:48,530 --> 01:30:46,320 in size from a couple feet to like 30 2154 01:30:50,209 --> 01:30:48,540 even 40 feet long all different kinds 2155 01:30:52,970 --> 01:30:50,219 all over the place and they eat eight 2156 01:30:54,890 --> 01:30:52,980 fish so you have these fish stocks 2157 01:30:56,629 --> 01:30:54,900 crashing all these ichthyosaurs all of a 2158 01:30:58,189 --> 01:30:56,639 sudden went extinct and then the pliers 2159 01:31:00,530 --> 01:30:58,199 died off and that's because the 2160 01:31:03,590 --> 01:31:00,540 plyosaurs their main bread and butter 2161 01:31:06,649 --> 01:31:03,600 was ichthyosaurus that's what they ate 2162 01:31:08,689 --> 01:31:06,659 most of the time okay once in a while 2163 01:31:10,850 --> 01:31:08,699 they need to please yes or or small 2164 01:31:14,209 --> 01:31:10,860 plious or something like that or shark 2165 01:31:16,610 --> 01:31:14,219 or whatever but their main food was like 2166 01:31:18,290 --> 01:31:16,620 just like if a shark was eating tuna and 2167 01:31:20,030 --> 01:31:18,300 all the tuna were gone it had nothing to 2168 01:31:22,610 --> 01:31:20,040 eat that type of stuff so no 2169 01:31:24,830 --> 01:31:22,620 ichthyosaurs pliers die right on the 2170 01:31:26,629 --> 01:31:24,840 heels of that and they're gone off the 2171 01:31:34,270 --> 01:31:26,639 fossil record other pleases were still 2172 01:31:34,280 --> 01:31:39,830 except for Loch Ness but we'll see 2173 01:31:43,430 --> 01:31:42,470 full circle so but back to the megalon 2174 01:31:45,290 --> 01:31:43,440 thing so 2175 01:31:47,930 --> 01:31:45,300 I believe that Megalodon died off 2176 01:31:50,990 --> 01:31:47,940 because of its diet but not in the 2177 01:31:52,669 --> 01:31:51,000 traditional sense to me it was when I I 2178 01:31:54,830 --> 01:31:52,679 and I did a lot of research on this okay 2179 01:31:56,870 --> 01:31:54,840 I don't just like make stuff or pull it 2180 01:31:59,390 --> 01:31:56,880 out of my butt as my daughter would say 2181 01:32:00,770 --> 01:31:59,400 but it was like a triple whammy and it 2182 01:32:03,790 --> 01:32:00,780 was a combination of the schwarf's 2183 01:32:06,830 --> 01:32:03,800 excessive size it's over specialization 2184 01:32:09,350 --> 01:32:06,840 and its Reliance on a food pyramid that 2185 01:32:11,750 --> 01:32:09,360 in the end Came Crashing Down 2186 01:32:13,430 --> 01:32:11,760 now this may wrinkle some people but 2187 01:32:16,430 --> 01:32:13,440 there's fossil evidence in fact I'm 2188 01:32:18,590 --> 01:32:16,440 holding a piece of one right here okay 2189 01:32:20,629 --> 01:32:18,600 but there's fossil evidence in the form 2190 01:32:22,430 --> 01:32:20,639 of the the Megalodon's tooth morphology 2191 01:32:24,290 --> 01:32:22,440 as well as fragments of fossilized whale 2192 01:32:26,450 --> 01:32:24,300 bone that support a theory I had put out 2193 01:32:28,129 --> 01:32:26,460 years back that the adult sharks got 2194 01:32:30,110 --> 01:32:28,139 most of their food from rotting whale 2195 01:32:32,990 --> 01:32:30,120 carcasses they were too slow to hunt 2196 01:32:35,629 --> 01:32:33,000 citations to swam three times as fast it 2197 01:32:38,149 --> 01:32:35,639 just you know so point is that that 2198 01:32:40,490 --> 01:32:38,159 being a primary scavenger for the adults 2199 01:32:43,370 --> 01:32:40,500 wasn't a bad thing because the mega lens 2200 01:32:45,830 --> 01:32:43,380 hunting strategies were advantageous for 2201 01:32:47,270 --> 01:32:45,840 tens of millions of years as we now know 2202 01:32:49,310 --> 01:32:47,280 just like we just looked at the dates 2203 01:32:52,430 --> 01:32:49,320 okay so you want to think of this as an 2204 01:32:54,350 --> 01:32:52,440 inverted triangle okay like this and at 2205 01:32:56,930 --> 01:32:54,360 the top of that triangle you got the 2206 01:32:59,390 --> 01:32:56,940 younger megalon sharks they're maybe 15 2207 01:33:01,790 --> 01:32:59,400 or 25 feet long and these fish are 2208 01:33:03,530 --> 01:33:01,800 active Hunters they are quick quick 2209 01:33:06,530 --> 01:33:03,540 enough to catch and kill the bolina 2210 01:33:08,870 --> 01:33:06,540 tooth whales other day which were around 2211 01:33:09,950 --> 01:33:08,880 their size you didn't have any giant 2212 01:33:12,110 --> 01:33:09,960 whales 2213 01:33:13,910 --> 01:33:12,120 Beyond 4.6 million years ago or 2214 01:33:15,770 --> 01:33:13,920 something like that okay there were 2215 01:33:18,350 --> 01:33:15,780 obviously a lot more of the smaller 2216 01:33:19,550 --> 01:33:18,360 sharks than there were the giant adults 2217 01:33:21,169 --> 01:33:19,560 which would have been at the bottom of 2218 01:33:22,970 --> 01:33:21,179 that food pyramid so you want to think 2219 01:33:25,370 --> 01:33:22,980 of it like great whites 2220 01:33:26,990 --> 01:33:25,380 there are thousands of fish I'm sure 2221 01:33:29,209 --> 01:33:27,000 you'll agree white sharks out that are 2222 01:33:32,030 --> 01:33:29,219 10 or 12 feet long right 2223 01:33:34,310 --> 01:33:32,040 and hundreds that are 16 feet or 14 or 2224 01:33:35,930 --> 01:33:34,320 50 or 16 right I mean you see them you 2225 01:33:37,910 --> 01:33:35,940 know shark cage videos and stuff like 2226 01:33:39,169 --> 01:33:37,920 that but how many of them that are 20 2227 01:33:41,330 --> 01:33:39,179 feet or more 2228 01:33:42,830 --> 01:33:41,340 I mean we see deep blue and we see the 2229 01:33:45,770 --> 01:33:42,840 evidence I've collected of sharks that 2230 01:33:47,510 --> 01:33:45,780 are bigger but how many do we see 2231 01:33:49,370 --> 01:33:47,520 you know what I mean so the same thing 2232 01:33:51,470 --> 01:33:49,380 would have applied to the Megalodon you 2233 01:33:54,410 --> 01:33:51,480 have these younger sharks making kills 2234 01:33:55,729 --> 01:33:54,420 and what's left after they eat their 2235 01:33:58,430 --> 01:33:55,739 kill which they're not going to eat all 2236 01:33:59,930 --> 01:33:58,440 of it's as big as them carcasses so the 2237 01:34:02,870 --> 01:33:59,940 younger fish were basically providing 2238 01:34:04,669 --> 01:34:02,880 food for the older sharks lots of food 2239 01:34:07,970 --> 01:34:04,679 because they outnumber the older sharks 2240 01:34:09,530 --> 01:34:07,980 50 100 to one maybe more you see and 2241 01:34:12,410 --> 01:34:09,540 that's why the Sharks develop these 2242 01:34:14,750 --> 01:34:12,420 upper maxillary teeth that are designed 2243 01:34:16,370 --> 01:34:14,760 to Crunch through rib cages on carcasses 2244 01:34:18,229 --> 01:34:16,380 which will often strip when they got 2245 01:34:21,530 --> 01:34:18,239 there so they could get access to the 2246 01:34:22,970 --> 01:34:21,540 heart and lungs of the dead whale which 2247 01:34:24,290 --> 01:34:22,980 the smaller sharks even the smaller 2248 01:34:26,570 --> 01:34:24,300 megalodons couldn't bite through those 2249 01:34:27,649 --> 01:34:26,580 giant rips and I got ribs in there I 2250 01:34:30,770 --> 01:34:27,659 could show you with the bite march to 2251 01:34:33,950 --> 01:34:30,780 prove it okay so that's that's what what 2252 01:34:36,550 --> 01:34:33,960 the big sharks did okay so about a 2253 01:34:39,350 --> 01:34:36,560 million years before the Meg died off 2254 01:34:41,390 --> 01:34:39,360 whales started getting bigger 2255 01:34:43,430 --> 01:34:41,400 I believe that this was a result of 2256 01:34:45,470 --> 01:34:43,440 evolutionary pressure meaning the 2257 01:34:49,070 --> 01:34:45,480 biggest whales were less likely to be 2258 01:34:51,169 --> 01:34:49,080 attacked you know by a 20 25 foot Mega 2259 01:34:53,030 --> 01:34:51,179 knowledge say so these bigger whales 2260 01:34:55,129 --> 01:34:53,040 pass on their genes and future 2261 01:34:57,470 --> 01:34:55,139 Generations through larger and larger 2262 01:35:00,050 --> 01:34:57,480 and this is supported by a paper by I 2263 01:35:03,169 --> 01:35:00,060 think it's lamborgh people can look it 2264 01:35:05,810 --> 01:35:03,179 up so the shark actually caused whales 2265 01:35:07,850 --> 01:35:05,820 to grow by feeding on them 2266 01:35:09,830 --> 01:35:07,860 and this gradual increase in whale size 2267 01:35:12,470 --> 01:35:09,840 became problematic for the younger 2268 01:35:14,629 --> 01:35:12,480 megalodons as a 20-foot Predator cannot 2269 01:35:17,090 --> 01:35:14,639 exactly attack a 40-foot Leviathan 2270 01:35:19,550 --> 01:35:17,100 without getting hurt or killed you see 2271 01:35:21,890 --> 01:35:19,560 so this also became a problem for the 2272 01:35:24,290 --> 01:35:21,900 adult Megalodons which were physically 2273 01:35:26,030 --> 01:35:24,300 capable of killing whales that size 40 2274 01:35:27,530 --> 01:35:26,040 feet let's say but they weren't fast 2275 01:35:29,330 --> 01:35:27,540 enough to catch them 2276 01:35:31,490 --> 01:35:29,340 so the shark is faced with larger and 2277 01:35:33,470 --> 01:35:31,500 larger whales traveling in pods that are 2278 01:35:35,510 --> 01:35:33,480 no longer on the menu so this is the 2279 01:35:37,550 --> 01:35:35,520 first whammy or strike one if you want 2280 01:35:38,810 --> 01:35:37,560 to call it that towards megalon going 2281 01:35:42,050 --> 01:35:38,820 extinct 2282 01:35:43,970 --> 01:35:42,060 second whammy is also whale related and 2283 01:35:46,430 --> 01:35:43,980 that's at the end of the myocene and Roy 2284 01:35:48,050 --> 01:35:46,440 pliocene many of the smaller species of 2285 01:35:49,970 --> 01:35:48,060 whales that were megalons bread and 2286 01:35:52,370 --> 01:35:49,980 butter like the ichthyosaurus the 2287 01:35:55,010 --> 01:35:52,380 plyosaurs I mentioned okay these whales 2288 01:35:56,410 --> 01:35:55,020 began to die off there was one called 2289 01:36:00,830 --> 01:35:56,420 um 2290 01:36:02,229 --> 01:36:00,840 it was a 25 foot baleen whale and there 2291 01:36:04,550 --> 01:36:02,239 was another called 2292 01:36:06,890 --> 01:36:04,560 bohascaya which was a 20-foot Beluga 2293 01:36:09,890 --> 01:36:06,900 type whale tooth whale both of these 2294 01:36:12,530 --> 01:36:09,900 whales went extinct at the close of the 2295 01:36:14,930 --> 01:36:12,540 zancy in the early pliocene which is 3.6 2296 01:36:17,390 --> 01:36:14,940 million years ago and exactly the same 2297 01:36:19,689 --> 01:36:17,400 time megadon vanishes 2298 01:36:22,250 --> 01:36:19,699 so if there's no small whales around 2299 01:36:24,050 --> 01:36:22,260 okay there's no prey for the sub-adult 2300 01:36:26,390 --> 01:36:24,060 Sharks it means there's no carcasses 2301 01:36:29,270 --> 01:36:26,400 with a huge adult sharks which are the 2302 01:36:30,350 --> 01:36:29,280 species brood stock the Breeders you 2303 01:36:32,209 --> 01:36:30,360 know you don't have those you die 2304 01:36:34,669 --> 01:36:32,219 obviously okay so I mean think about 2305 01:36:36,649 --> 01:36:34,679 that 3.6 million years ago many of the 2306 01:36:39,110 --> 01:36:36,659 small whales are gone the giant Baleen 2307 01:36:40,370 --> 01:36:39,120 whales remain to this day but the mega 2308 01:36:42,709 --> 01:36:40,380 shark is gone 2309 01:36:45,110 --> 01:36:42,719 don't you find that interesting well it 2310 01:36:47,050 --> 01:36:45,120 it it it it's almost like catastrophic 2311 01:36:50,090 --> 01:36:47,060 right it was just like the perfect 2312 01:36:53,390 --> 01:36:50,100 situation at the no wait wait but wait 2313 01:36:55,490 --> 01:36:53,400 there's more okay okay so the third and 2314 01:36:57,649 --> 01:36:55,500 final nail in Megalodon's enormous 2315 01:37:00,290 --> 01:36:57,659 coffin is something that could have 2316 01:37:03,950 --> 01:37:00,300 affects the most vulnerable of their 2317 01:37:05,629 --> 01:37:03,960 species their babies see and nobody 2318 01:37:07,010 --> 01:37:05,639 before me that I'm aware I've ever 2319 01:37:09,110 --> 01:37:07,020 focused on the fact that there was an 2320 01:37:11,330 --> 01:37:09,120 extinct species like serenian it's like 2321 01:37:15,110 --> 01:37:11,340 a dugong okay like it's really a manatee 2322 01:37:18,410 --> 01:37:15,120 called Nano siren Garcia I think it is 2323 01:37:21,530 --> 01:37:18,420 okay and Nano siren was a dwarf dugong 2324 01:37:23,209 --> 01:37:21,540 that inhabited this warm shallow Waters 2325 01:37:25,010 --> 01:37:23,219 of South America and the United States 2326 01:37:27,530 --> 01:37:25,020 it was small 2327 01:37:29,629 --> 01:37:27,540 like six or seven feet long maybe 300 2328 01:37:33,110 --> 01:37:29,639 something pounds and it was the perfect 2329 01:37:35,209 --> 01:37:33,120 yeah perfect prey item for neonate 2330 01:37:37,910 --> 01:37:35,219 megalodons and a neonate means a baby 2331 01:37:39,590 --> 01:37:37,920 okay which is that size so the baby 2332 01:37:42,050 --> 01:37:39,600 sharks would have feasted on these 2333 01:37:43,970 --> 01:37:42,060 blubber Rich High caloric meals which 2334 01:37:45,950 --> 01:37:43,980 would help them grow and they're also 2335 01:37:47,330 --> 01:37:45,960 hiding in the mangroves and the shallows 2336 01:37:49,070 --> 01:37:47,340 it's not going out to sea where they're 2337 01:37:51,229 --> 01:37:49,080 at risk from the adults and other and 2338 01:37:52,610 --> 01:37:51,239 great whites like you mentioned and and 2339 01:37:53,990 --> 01:37:52,620 chubby tenses and all these other 2340 01:37:55,129 --> 01:37:54,000 monsters are out there so they're 2341 01:37:58,490 --> 01:37:55,139 staying in the shallows and they're 2342 01:38:01,850 --> 01:37:58,500 eating these dwarf dugongs Nano siren 2343 01:38:04,129 --> 01:38:01,860 also died off around 3.6 million years 2344 01:38:06,470 --> 01:38:04,139 ago I find it hard to believe that's a 2345 01:38:08,689 --> 01:38:06,480 coincidence so Reliance on it for food 2346 01:38:10,970 --> 01:38:08,699 was in my opinion strike three for the 2347 01:38:12,550 --> 01:38:10,980 megalon no food for the babies means no 2348 01:38:15,229 --> 01:38:12,560 adults and the species could not 2349 01:38:17,570 --> 01:38:15,239 withstand this triple whammy hitting 2350 01:38:18,770 --> 01:38:17,580 them all at the same time food pyramid 2351 01:38:20,990 --> 01:38:18,780 collapses under its own weight 2352 01:38:23,270 --> 01:38:21,000 population goes with it and just like 2353 01:38:27,709 --> 01:38:23,280 that the world's largest carnivorous 2354 01:38:29,570 --> 01:38:27,719 fish was gone just like that I it it you 2355 01:38:32,689 --> 01:38:29,580 make it sound so simple but if there's 2356 01:38:34,189 --> 01:38:32,699 no food there's no food exactly I mean 2357 01:38:37,490 --> 01:38:34,199 what happens to people if there's no 2358 01:38:39,290 --> 01:38:37,500 food we don't happen exactly so and this 2359 01:38:41,270 --> 01:38:39,300 was but this was hitting them from every 2360 01:38:43,010 --> 01:38:41,280 angle I mean if you think about it it 2361 01:38:44,810 --> 01:38:43,020 was like coming at them from multiple it 2362 01:38:47,450 --> 01:38:44,820 was hurting a baby starving the babies 2363 01:38:49,430 --> 01:38:47,460 out okay some adults didn't have food 2364 01:38:51,050 --> 01:38:49,440 then the big adults didn't have food you 2365 01:38:53,629 --> 01:38:51,060 know I mean it was like like nobody had 2366 01:38:55,490 --> 01:38:53,639 anything to eat and I'm sure they tried 2367 01:38:57,290 --> 01:38:55,500 and tried and ate sea turtles and 2368 01:38:59,030 --> 01:38:57,300 everything else that they could you know 2369 01:39:01,370 --> 01:38:59,040 like workers do that sometimes they eat 2370 01:39:02,629 --> 01:39:01,380 sea otters when we've taken all their 2371 01:39:04,550 --> 01:39:02,639 salmon 2372 01:39:06,950 --> 01:39:04,560 and stuff like that you know but at the 2373 01:39:08,390 --> 01:39:06,960 end of the day you know they a lot of 2374 01:39:13,430 --> 01:39:08,400 them are starving well British Columbia 2375 01:39:16,129 --> 01:39:13,440 and stuff killer whales what uh I just 2376 01:39:18,950 --> 01:39:16,139 want to ask just a a a stupid question 2377 01:39:22,250 --> 01:39:18,960 for me I've we've all seen those videos 2378 01:39:24,229 --> 01:39:22,260 of the great whites eating the seals and 2379 01:39:26,030 --> 01:39:24,239 they you know fly out of the water where 2380 01:39:27,410 --> 01:39:26,040 is that at 2381 01:39:30,110 --> 01:39:27,420 I think that happens in a lot of places 2382 01:39:33,010 --> 01:39:30,120 to be honest I mean I've seen makos do 2383 01:39:38,450 --> 01:39:35,930 where the seals are trying to go from 2384 01:39:39,550 --> 01:39:38,460 Island to Island and and thinking of the 2385 01:39:42,850 --> 01:39:39,560 farallones 2386 01:39:45,770 --> 01:39:42,860 in California yeah okay 2387 01:39:48,950 --> 01:39:45,780 is that what it is and you would think 2388 01:39:51,410 --> 01:39:48,960 that the seals would just learn from 2389 01:39:54,830 --> 01:39:51,420 that like not go 2390 01:39:57,110 --> 01:39:54,840 well they know but unfortunately 2391 01:39:58,850 --> 01:39:57,120 you get careless and remember what I 2392 01:40:00,290 --> 01:39:58,860 told you you know the white shark they 2393 01:40:02,090 --> 01:40:00,300 don't just come charging at them like 2394 01:40:04,370 --> 01:40:02,100 here I am I'm gonna get you you know 2395 01:40:07,250 --> 01:40:04,380 they're on the bottom blending in 2396 01:40:08,990 --> 01:40:07,260 looking looking a young CEO who's not as 2397 01:40:10,970 --> 01:40:09,000 experienced somebody who's not paying 2398 01:40:13,550 --> 01:40:10,980 attention you know something like that 2399 01:40:16,990 --> 01:40:13,560 maybe he's checking his 401k on his cell 2400 01:40:21,530 --> 01:40:17,000 phone and then boom 2401 01:40:25,669 --> 01:40:21,540 somebody just said it's in South Africa 2402 01:40:27,709 --> 01:40:25,679 the Caroline Islands uh well what I'm 2403 01:40:30,169 --> 01:40:27,719 talking about with the 2404 01:40:31,189 --> 01:40:30,179 with the seals I think it's seals oh 2405 01:40:32,810 --> 01:40:31,199 it's probably where the guys are 2406 01:40:34,250 --> 01:40:32,820 actually doing that dragging the thing 2407 01:40:35,870 --> 01:40:34,260 behind the boat and getting on the 2408 01:40:39,169 --> 01:40:35,880 breach like air draws that type of thing 2409 01:40:40,910 --> 01:40:39,179 yeah but yeah what a white shark when 2410 01:40:42,890 --> 01:40:40,920 they breach it's usually when they come 2411 01:40:44,930 --> 01:40:42,900 up and they Rush at something and either 2412 01:40:46,310 --> 01:40:44,940 they miss or they hit it and they rubbed 2413 01:40:48,050 --> 01:40:46,320 out of the water 2414 01:40:49,790 --> 01:40:48,060 there was actually a study that was very 2415 01:40:51,590 --> 01:40:49,800 useful for that documentary 2416 01:40:54,169 --> 01:40:51,600 um that I got to reference where they 2417 01:40:56,330 --> 01:40:54,179 put tags on basking sharks that were 2418 01:40:57,890 --> 01:40:56,340 breaching also and maybe the crunch 2419 01:40:59,930 --> 01:40:57,900 numbers and get their speeds and figure 2420 01:41:01,490 --> 01:40:59,940 out how fast like a white shark would be 2421 01:41:03,830 --> 01:41:01,500 the same size and stuff like that it was 2422 01:41:05,930 --> 01:41:03,840 fascinating stuff

01:42:40,669 --> 01:42:39,119 which is part of like a state park which 2462 01:42:42,950 --> 01:42:40,679 of course I'm sure you know Bigfoot are 2463 01:42:46,129 --> 01:42:42,960 often seen in state parks 2464 01:42:47,689 --> 01:42:46,139 you know seems to be a habit yeah 2465 01:42:50,050 --> 01:42:47,699 habitat 2466 01:42:52,609 --> 01:42:50,060 so what happened is um 2467 01:42:53,750 --> 01:42:52,619 swans Pond is not a small Lake it's like 2468 01:42:54,590 --> 01:42:53,760 a couple two miles long or something 2469 01:42:56,390 --> 01:42:54,600 like that 2470 01:42:58,729 --> 01:42:56,400 it was originally part of Candlewood 2471 01:43:00,649 --> 01:42:58,739 Lake and it was all one thing but it was 2472 01:43:02,570 --> 01:43:00,659 a narrow space between these two 2473 01:43:04,010 --> 01:43:02,580 sections and they built a Causeway there 2474 01:43:07,010 --> 01:43:04,020 you know the causeway is like an 2475 01:43:08,930 --> 01:43:07,020 artificial Road okay and they piled up 2476 01:43:10,850 --> 01:43:08,940 all this rock you know these small rocks 2477 01:43:12,410 --> 01:43:10,860 whatever and stuff like that and they 2478 01:43:14,330 --> 01:43:12,420 built the road on top of it it's a small 2479 01:43:16,010 --> 01:43:14,340 road I don't know if one or two cars can 2480 01:43:19,129 --> 01:43:16,020 go across this thing or whatever it is 2481 01:43:21,890 --> 01:43:19,139 so this Causeway if you look at it from 2482 01:43:23,870 --> 01:43:21,900 a side angle like a a cut out it's kind 2483 01:43:26,149 --> 01:43:23,880 of like slope like this with the rocks 2484 01:43:28,129 --> 01:43:26,159 on both sides so this side would be like 2485 01:43:29,810 --> 01:43:28,139 swans and this side would be Candlewood 2486 01:43:31,850 --> 01:43:29,820 let's say and then the roads on top of 2487 01:43:33,470 --> 01:43:31,860 that if you're going back and forth and 2488 01:43:34,970 --> 01:43:33,480 so that the water could flow back and 2489 01:43:36,649 --> 01:43:34,980 forth and the animals could travel back 2490 01:43:39,229 --> 01:43:36,659 and forth they built like I don't know 2491 01:43:41,629 --> 01:43:39,239 what you call it like a a dock that big 2492 01:43:43,490 --> 01:43:41,639 giant like concrete steel sewer pipe 2493 01:43:46,010 --> 01:43:43,500 whatever that connects them you know 2494 01:43:49,250 --> 01:43:46,020 underwater so that that can happen it 2495 01:43:52,370 --> 01:43:49,260 with me so far I'm looking at it okay 2496 01:43:53,990 --> 01:43:52,380 cool I'm literally looking at it that's 2497 01:43:56,149 --> 01:43:54,000 what I'm doing I'm right here I'm at 2498 01:43:58,790 --> 01:43:56,159 squats I thought I was getting boring 2499 01:44:01,550 --> 01:43:58,800 you know because you know I'm looking at 2500 01:44:03,350 --> 01:44:01,560 Candlewood Lake right here yeah so if 2501 01:44:05,810 --> 01:44:03,360 you see the causeway okay you'll see 2502 01:44:07,910 --> 01:44:05,820 exactly where where this happened so we 2503 01:44:09,830 --> 01:44:07,920 decided you know that we figured okay 2504 01:44:11,450 --> 01:44:09,840 there's got to be all sorts of bait like 2505 01:44:13,370 --> 01:44:11,460 crayfish and stuff in these rocks 2506 01:44:16,370 --> 01:44:13,380 because the Rocks go out for hundreds of 2507 01:44:19,490 --> 01:44:16,380 feet okay and we were

01:45:57,480 the water it breaks the surface it was I 2557 01:46:01,129 --> 01:45:59,040 don't know how far out I'd really have 2558 01:46:02,990 --> 01:46:01,139 to go back there and Eyeball it to get 2559 01:46:04,970 --> 01:46:03,000 exact numbers or stuff it might have 2560 01:46:06,950 --> 01:46:04,980 been 150 feet away or something like 2561 01:46:08,750 --> 01:46:06,960 that but I see this dark thing come to 2562 01:46:10,250 --> 01:46:08,760 the surface you know and then I went on 2563 01:46:11,570 --> 01:46:10,260 there and I thought it was a fish at 2564 01:46:13,430 --> 01:46:11,580 first I was like oh there's a big one 2565 01:46:14,930 --> 01:46:13,440 you know and then it was gone and then 2566 01:46:17,390 --> 01:46:14,940 like a minute or two later it popped up 2567 01:46:18,950 --> 01:46:17,400 again it's only a bit closer you know 2568 01:46:21,350 --> 01:46:18,960 and then I started looking at them like 2569 01:46:24,169 --> 01:46:21,360 and I saw that it was like roundish and 2570 01:46:26,570 --> 01:46:24,179 it was furry had like this reddish brown 2571 01:46:29,270 --> 01:46:26,580 hair kind of like a uh like an Irish 2572 01:46:31,250 --> 01:46:29,280 Setter okay and I thought oh it's a 2573 01:46:32,750 --> 01:46:31,260 muskrat and then I got a tiny bit closer 2574 01:46:34,669 --> 01:46:32,760 I'm like nah that's too big to be a 2575 01:46:35,990 --> 01:46:34,679 muskrat I'm like that's a beaver yeah 2576 01:46:37,970 --> 01:46:36,000 that's a b Riverside shape like a 2577 01:46:40,070 --> 01:46:37,980 beaver's butt kind of maybe that kind of 2578 01:46:42,109 --> 01:46:40,080 stuff and I'm like no that's not a 2579 01:46:44,149 --> 01:46:42,119 beaver I'm like what the hell am I 2580 01:46:46,790 --> 01:46:44,159 looking at here you know and I couldn't 2581 01:46:48,950 --> 01:46:46,800 figure it out and it would go underwater 2582 01:46:50,870 --> 01:46:48,960 for maybe a minute two minutes or more 2583 01:46:53,270 --> 01:46:50,880 you know and then it would come back up 2584 01:46:55,430 --> 01:46:53,280 and in retrospect I know that it was 2585 01:46:56,990 --> 01:46:55,440 going down and Diving for crayfish and 2586 01:46:58,850 --> 01:46:57,000 coming up and eating them taking a 2587 01:47:01,129 --> 01:46:58,860 breath and going back down again okay 2588 01:47:03,350 --> 01:47:01,139 that's what was apparently happening in 2589 01:47:04,550 --> 01:47:03,360 retrospect but at the time I had no idea 2590 01:47:07,310 --> 01:47:04,560 about that I just thought it was some 2591 01:47:09,350 --> 01:47:07,320 weird animal so I'm like is that a deer 2592 01:47:11,689 --> 01:47:09,360 because I realized it was big you know 2593 01:47:13,430 --> 01:47:11,699 and I'm like no because deer they do the 2594 01:47:15,290 --> 01:47:13,440 Loch Ness thing with the you know swim 2595 01:47:17,209 --> 01:47:15,300 like that and you see them you know what 2596 01:47:20,090 --> 01:47:17,219 I mean you see them like in champ videos 2597 01:47:21,229 --> 01:47:20,100 oh that's champ no it's a deer okay but 2598 01:47:23,390 --> 01:47:21,239 anyway 2599 01:47:24,830 --> 01:47:23,400 um so you know it wasn't a deer and then 2600 01:47:26,450 --> 01:47:24,840 I literally thought it was an Irish 2601 01:47:27,830 --> 01:47:26,460 Setter like I said the color and 2602 01:47:29,330 --> 01:47:27,840 everything like that it must be an Irish 2603 01:47:31,910 --> 01:47:29,340 Setter you know because I started seeing 2604 01:47:33,290 --> 01:47:31,920 parts of it like behind it not just what 2605 01:47:35,689 --> 01:47:33,300 was the head coming up part of the head 2606 01:47:37,370 --> 01:47:35,699 but there was stuff behind that you know 2607 01:47:39,470 --> 01:47:37,380 and I'm like it's an Irish Setter you 2608 01:47:41,990 --> 01:47:39,480 know it's about that size maybe you know 2609 01:47:43,790 --> 01:47:42,000 it's still pretty far out I'm like nah 2610 01:47:45,890 --> 01:47:43,800 that head's not shaped like an Irish 2611 01:47:49,850 --> 01:47:45,900 Setter and why is it diving under water 2612 01:47:51,890 --> 01:47:49,860 it was it was quite the mystery okay and 2613 01:47:53,330 --> 01:47:51,900 at one point like I said like you were 2614 01:47:54,890 --> 01:47:53,340 seeing like this head come up and by the 2615 01:47:58,970 --> 01:47:54,900 way the head was not conical it was 2616 01:48:00,970 --> 01:47:58,980 rounded how old were you how old how old 2617 01:48:03,770 --> 01:48:00,980 28. 2618 01:48:06,050 --> 01:48:03,780 you're twenty yeah 28 or 29 yeah so 2619 01:48:08,629 --> 01:48:06,060 you're old enough to know better is is 2620 01:48:11,510 --> 01:48:08,639 where I'm going with this uh allegedly 2621 01:48:13,310 --> 01:48:11,520 okay continue so I hadn't now I had knew 2622 01:48:15,709 --> 01:48:13,320 nothing about Sasquatch back then just 2623 01:48:19,250 --> 01:48:15,719 as we're clear on that okay right and 2624 01:48:21,830 --> 01:48:19,260 then I I kind of I stood up you know and 2625 01:48:24,109 --> 01:48:21,840 I looked and I could see when it came up 2626 01:48:25,850 --> 01:48:24,119 that there was like a body right behind 2627 01:48:28,370 --> 01:48:25,860 the head but it was going away from me 2628 01:48:29,810 --> 01:48:28,380 so it was like you know tapered 2629 01:48:31,430 --> 01:48:29,820 and I mean like the head was closer so 2630 01:48:32,930 --> 01:48:31,440 it looks bigger you know like if I put 2631 01:48:34,729 --> 01:48:32,940 my hand out like this towards the camera 2632 01:48:35,810 --> 01:48:34,739 you see my my hand looks a lot bigger 2633 01:48:37,490 --> 01:48:35,820 than the rest of me that type of thing 2634 01:48:40,910 --> 01:48:37,500 Force perspective 2635 01:48:42,470 --> 01:48:40,920 um so but I could see its legs right 2636 01:48:45,169 --> 01:48:42,480 under the surface of the water 2637 01:48:48,229 --> 01:48:45,179 it had lakes in the back and the legs 2638 01:48:49,729 --> 01:48:48,239 they moved together when they swim 2639 01:48:52,490 --> 01:48:49,739 like a mermaid 2640 01:48:54,109 --> 01:48:52,500 like that so you mark my words when 2641 01:48:56,390 --> 01:48:54,119 proof of bigfoot comes around people see 2642 01:48:57,649 --> 01:48:56,400 them in the water and their legs are 2643 01:49:02,209 --> 01:48:57,659 moving together they're going to be like 2644 01:49:04,850 --> 01:49:02,219 the max was right okay so mer foot well 2645 01:49:08,030 --> 01:49:04,860 it was quite quite an Adept swimmer and 2646 01:49:10,189 --> 01:49:08,040 it had powerful lungs okay so at this 2647 01:49:12,109 --> 01:49:10,199 point I started to think that it was an 2648 01:49:13,850 --> 01:49:12,119 enormous orangutan 2649 01:49:15,169 --> 01:49:13,860 like that somebody like one of these 2650 01:49:17,689 --> 01:49:15,179 wealthy people on the other side of the 2651 01:49:20,390 --> 01:49:17,699 lake had a bed orangutan that somehow 2652 01:49:22,490 --> 01:49:20,400 was a master swimmer and was comfortable 2653 01:49:24,830 --> 01:49:22,500 in a lake and Diving underwater for God 2654 01:49:28,370 --> 01:49:24,840 knows what okay which made no sense but 2655 01:49:30,050 --> 01:49:28,380 I was like grasping at straws so then I 2656 01:49:31,850 --> 01:49:30,060 came up with this brilliant idea I was 2657 01:49:33,890 --> 01:49:31,860 like you know what I'm gonna do I wanted 2658 01:49:34,970 --> 01:49:33,900 to know what this thing was okay because 2659 01:49:39,050 --> 01:49:34,980 I've been watching it for like 15 2660 01:49:41,030 --> 01:49:39,060 minutes 15 minutes okay if I'd had like 2661 01:49:42,950 --> 01:49:41,040 something like like a the Polaroid was 2662 01:49:44,390 --> 01:49:42,960 with my brother but a good camera and I 2663 01:49:45,709 --> 01:49:44,400 could have zoomed in and taken pictures 2664 01:49:48,709 --> 01:49:45,719 whatever so like I'm sure it would have 2665 01:49:51,649 --> 01:49:48,719 been credible so I decided I'm gonna go 2666 01:49:53,090 --> 01:49:51,659 up the hill like back up the hill you 2667 01:49:55,070 --> 01:49:53,100 know and get high enough I'm looking 2668 01:49:56,689 --> 01:49:55,080 down at it because I was ground level so 2669 01:49:58,010 --> 01:49:56,699 I was kind of like even standing up I 2670 01:49:59,629 --> 01:49:58,020 couldn't see much of it you know I mean 2671 01:50:01,370 --> 01:49:59,639 I want to be able to get way up there 2672 01:50:02,990 --> 01:50:01,380 and look down on them like this and see 2673 01:50:05,149 --> 01:50:03,000 exactly what this thing was and solve 2674 01:50:05,990 --> 01:50:05,159 the mystery so I waited till it went 2675 01:50:07,850 --> 01:50:06,000 under 2676 01:50:10,430 --> 01:50:07,860 because I was sneaky you know and stuff 2677 01:50:13,189 --> 01:50:10,440 and I started backing up the hill and as 2678 01:50:15,950 --> 01:50:13,199 I got part way up the hill I 2679 01:50:18,590 --> 01:50:15,960 I like my heel like some of the gravel 2680 01:50:19,850 --> 01:50:18,600 those rocks like it it came loose or 2681 01:50:21,649 --> 01:50:19,860 whatever and stuff I stumbled a little 2682 01:50:24,950 --> 01:50:21,659 bit and this thing must have heard it 2683 01:50:27,950 --> 01:50:24,960 because it surfaced loudly and it wasn't 2684 01:50:29,510 --> 01:50:27,960 where I expected it at the surface I 2685 01:50:31,070 --> 01:50:29,520 expected to be in the path had been 2686 01:50:33,290 --> 01:50:31,080 coming when it serviced it was like off 2687 01:50:34,129 --> 01:50:33,300 to this side you know like I don't know 2688 01:50:37,550 --> 01:50:34,139 like 2689 01:50:40,310 --> 01:50:37,560 20 yards 15 20 yards away from where I 2690 01:50:43,189 --> 01:50:40,320 expected it and I heard this like Splash 2691 01:50:44,450 --> 01:50:43,199 and I turned and looked and just as I 2692 01:50:48,770 --> 01:50:44,460 was turning it must have been like 2693 01:50:51,350 --> 01:50:48,780 diving them and I saw its shoulder and 2694 01:50:54,649 --> 01:50:51,360 its upper arm and its elbow and its form 2695 01:50:56,390 --> 01:50:54,659 like this okay all this broke the 2696 01:50:57,709 --> 01:50:56,400 surface of the water like that it was 2697 01:50:59,810 --> 01:50:57,719 very muscular 2698 01:51:02,450 --> 01:50:59,820 it had thick 2699 01:51:05,390 --> 01:51:02,460 Irish Setter like hair drenched hanging 2700 01:51:07,490 --> 01:51:05,400 down streaming and it went under and 2701 01:51:09,530 --> 01:51:07,500 then it started swimming not towards me 2702 01:51:12,290 --> 01:51:09,540 although close but it was looking for 2703 01:51:13,790 --> 01:51:12,300 that narrow Corridor that went under the 2704 01:51:16,430 --> 01:51:13,800 causeway and that's where it was headed 2705 01:51:17,930 --> 01:51:16,440 so I rushed over I don't know how far I 2706 01:51:20,810 --> 01:51:17,940 was maybe 2707 01:51:23,149 --> 01:51:20,820 30 feet I'm guessing to the edge of the 2708 01:51:25,609 --> 01:51:23,159 water where that little tunnel was so it 2709 01:51:28,250 --> 01:51:25,619 went like that you know and then it I 2710 01:51:31,070 --> 01:51:28,260 saw its shadowy form like go underwater 2711 01:51:33,590 --> 01:51:31,080 like this like that it was very fast 2712 01:51:36,109 --> 01:51:33,600 very fast swimmer and the water went 2713 01:51:37,669 --> 01:51:36,119 like this like like that and I got to 2714 01:51:39,229 --> 01:51:37,679 tell you when it was out there I thought 2715 01:51:41,270 --> 01:51:39,239 it was only about five feet long but it 2716 01:51:43,010 --> 01:51:41,280 seemed a little bigger when it went when 2717 01:51:44,629 --> 01:51:43,020 it swam by to the point that I was like 2718 01:51:46,250 --> 01:51:44,639 whoa I took a step back like what the 2719 01:51:49,250 --> 01:51:46,260 heck is that you know this type of thing 2720 01:51:50,750 --> 01:51:49,260 so then I it went into the tunnel and I 2721 01:51:52,490 --> 01:51:50,760 ran up the hill 2722 01:51:55,430 --> 01:51:52,500 you almost got whipped by a car 2723 01:51:57,470 --> 01:51:55,440 literally I almost got killed okay and I 2724 01:51:58,910 --> 01:51:57,480 was like this and I ran across and I 2725 01:52:00,770 --> 01:51:58,920 told my brothers I was like guys guys 2726 01:52:02,870 -->

01:52:07,910 --> 01:52:06,119 there I said it's gonna come through 2730 01:52:10,310 --> 01:52:07,920 right now right through here watch watch 2731 01:52:12,050 --> 01:52:10,320 watch watch watch like this well by the 2732 01:52:13,910 --> 01:52:12,060 time I got to the top of the hill not 2733 01:52:16,010 --> 01:52:13,920 even almost got creamed it had already 2734 01:52:18,290 --> 01:52:16,020 gone through I got this thing like I 2735 01:52:20,209 --> 01:52:18,300 told you this thing was fast and so 2736 01:52:22,910 --> 01:52:20,219 we're standing there and a minute passes 2737

01:55:51,530 --> 01:55:49,679 and it's heavy wood stuff on a 10 feet 2830 01:55:53,510 --> 01:55:51,540 from Shore or something like that to 2831 01:55:55,850 --> 01:55:53,520 fish and then all of a
