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

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

@@Shattered_Instance I think I’d worry the most about Bull Sharks. I know they say Great Whites kill the most, but Bull Sharks are probably the most aggressive. Plus, a Great White will bite you in half, but a Bull Shark will take a bunch of little bites. I used to live on Long Island before I moved upstate. I went fishing with my father and some of his coworkers one summer on a Montauk charter. We were supposed to go for Tuna, but the boat had some issue, so we ended up going on a shark boat instead. Long story short, we caught a 12’ Thresher Shark. Half of that length almost is tail. 318 lbs. We just missed the Monster Tournament. It would have won the exotic species category and we could have won a bunch of money. But either way, it tasted really good.

given how abundant the buffet is at that table I'm sure the sharks don't need to go looking anywhere else for their food....those people are probably very safe. The fact the area has had zero fatal shark attacks, and only 3 or 4 attacks in general in its history probably proves that point :)

There was a study here just recently surveying great white sharks off the coast of California. They found that swimmers and surfers at California beaches were sharing the water with 6 - 10 foot great whites about 90% of the time, mostly without the swimmers/surfers ever knowing. The researchers observed the sharks occasionally following humans a little ways, but they didn't see aggressive or predatory behavior. It turns out that for the most part, sharks are mildly curious about us, and they'll come over to see what we're doing, but it's exceptionally rare for them to take much interest in us beyond that, and we really don't resemble food to them.

@@inefektalso makes a really good point here. If we aren't depleting their food sources, sharks and humans can generally share space without having dangerous interactions. Some of the best fishermen I've known throughout my life have also been the staunchest conservationists I've ever met. If the ocean feeds you, take care of it, and that'll make it a lot less likely to eat you, too.

Theyre actually NOT that aggressive. Millions of them swim past millions of people at beaches every year and dont do anything. Occasionally one will kill someone. Youre more likely to get killed by a dog than get killed by a tiger shark. The most aggressive shark - by far - is the bull shark. It will attack pretty much anything on sight and keep going. One killed 3 people on the same day back in 1916. But they generally inhabit estuaries and attacks by bull sharks are relatively rare because people who live around estuaries where you find bull sharks know not to go in the water.

Great footage. We used to swim quite far past the piers along Mornington peninsula. One day we were about 600 metres off shore well past the pier, no-one else on the beach nor in the water (which was about four times our height in depth)... and the Shark Alarm went off. We have never swum so fast or hard in our lives (me, Dad and brother). I was shitting bricks the whole swim. None of us have ever been in water that far offshore nor that deep again. We found out later the lifeguards were all off duty as the beach was deserted but it just happened that one guy had stayed overnight in the crews lockers after a drinking sessiom the night before and happened to be there and sounded the alarm due to a sighting about fifty metres away from where we were (opposite side of the pier).

On our way back to the car, we saw a sign that said not to swim due to recent shark sightings and that attacks had occurred in shallow water recently

@@jeepersmcgee3466 like a lot of people like yourself I have Thalassaphobia. And like yours its pretty clear where mine stems from. Its interesting that my dear departed Nanna had SEVERE Thalassaphobia, and she had never once stepped a single stride into the ocean past her ankles. I think the condition could come from a fear brought on by an intense physical experience, like ours, or a complete lack of experience, like my Nannas. She was afraid of the unkown and thus never stepped into it. I was relatively unaware and unafraid of the unkown, and became VERY aware of it and VERY afraid...but only AFTER stepping into the unkown and learning a healthy dose reality while in it, developing a very real fear and phobia in the process.

@@EarlyMist In Queensland, Australia, there are a lot of man made canals that open out into the sea. And if there isn't a netted enclosure to keep the sharks out, NO ONE would even put their feet in the water ankle deep in the canal. BIG Sharks have OFTEN surged right into a foot of water, or shallower, and snatched dogs and occasionally people. I was about 200 meters down the beach from a girl who stepped into water not even knee deep on her, to grab the bow of a boat, and she was INSTANTLY snatched off her feet and torn in half right there beside the boat, by half a dozen sharks. They recovered half of her body, and WHILE they were doing it, two REALLY big sharks were fighting over some part of her and spraying the people with foam.

Just make sure the banded rudderfish is 14”-22” long they have a slot limit. But they’re very good on the grill. I’ve caught them at that pier early in the morning. The bigger ones tend to run in around first light. Usually a small blue runner works really well. Also you might get into the northern mackerel at that time as well. Good eating as well.

Really cool video! Shows how sharks honestly prefer not to mess with us if they don’t have to. All those fish by the pier are far more appealing to them. Even with them being tiger sharks one of the more deadly and aggressive species people are likely to run into. Though really any shark over 6ft can potentially be dangerous to us. Still. Not a reason to avoid the ocean, be respectful and cautious around them, don’t act like panicked injured prey and they will likely leave you alone.

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

Plus, a Great White will bite you in half, but a Bull Shark will take a bunch of little bites. I used to live on Long Island before I moved upstate. I went fishing with my father and some of his coworkers one summer on a Montauk charter. We were supposed to go for Tuna, but the boat had some issue, so we ended up going on a shark boat instead. Long story short, we caught a 12’ Thresher Shark. Half of that length almost is tail. 318 lbs. We just missed the Monster Tournament. It would have won the exotic species category and we could have won a bunch of money. But either way, it tasted really good.

There was a study here just recently surveying great white sharks off the coast of California. They found that swimmers and surfers at California beaches were sharing the water with 6 - 10 foot great whites about 90% of the time, mostly without the swimmers/surfers ever knowing. The researchers observed the sharks occasionally following humans a little ways, but they didn't see aggressive or predatory behavior. It turns out that for the most part, sharks are mildly curious about us, and they'll come over to see what we're doing, but it's exceptionally rare for them to take much interest in us beyond that, and we really don't resemble food to them.

If the ocean feeds you, take care of it, and that'll make it a lot less likely to eat you, too.

Theyre actually NOT that aggressive. Millions of them swim past millions of people at beaches every year and dont do anything. Occasionally one will kill someone. Youre more likely to get killed by a dog than get killed by a tiger shark. The most aggressive shark - by far - is the bull shark. It will attack pretty much anything on sight and keep going. One killed 3 people on the same day back in 1916. But they generally inhabit estuaries and attacks by bull sharks are relatively rare because people who live around estuaries where you find bull sharks know not to go in the water.
Banded rudder fish was very cool. Also, can't believe there were so many sharks! Great footage, stayed glued to the screen. Awesome footage.

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

1030 Miracle Strip PKWY SE Fort Walton Beach, FL 32548 The Island Pier, formerly known as the Okaloosa Island Fishing Pier is located just steps away from the stunning sugar-white beaches and the vibrant green waters of the Emerald Coast. Stretching out 1,262 feet into the Gulf of Mexico, The Island Pier provides breath taking views of magnificent sunrises and sunsets. Be sure to have your cameras at the ready to capture spectacular images of a variety of marine life including dolphins, sea turtles, herons, and pelicans that inhabit the sea and sky around the Pier. And, of course, don't forget the excitement of watching The Island Anglers reel in their catch - from Black Fin Tuna to the Mighty King Mackerel.

Great footage. We used to swim quite far past the piers along Mornington peninsula. One day we were about 600 metres off shore well past the pier, no-one else on the beach nor in the water (which was about four times our height in depth)... and the Shark Alarm went off. We have never swum so fast or hard in our lives (me, Dad and brother). I was shitting bricks the whole swim. None of us have ever been in water that far offshore nor that deep again. We found out later the lifeguards were all off duty as the beach was deserted but it just happened that one guy had stayed overnight in the crews lockers after a drinking sessiom the night before and happened to be there and sounded the alarm due to a sighting about fifty metres away from where we were (opposite side of the pier).

Nobody else was going in the water, but we figured they were just lame. We saw several fins cresting the waves all around us and thought they were dolphins. On our way back to the car, we saw a sign that said not to swim due to recent shark sightings and that attacks had occurred in shallow water recently

I think the condition could come from a fear brought on by an intense physical experience, like ours, or a complete lack of experience, like my Nannas. She was afraid of the unkown and thus never stepped into it. I was relatively unaware and unafraid of the unkown, and became VERY aware of it and VERY afraid...but only AFTER stepping into the unkown and learning a healthy dose reality while in it, developing a very real fear and phobia in the process.

@@EarlyMist In Queensland, Australia, there are a lot of man made canals that open out into the sea. And if there isn't a netted enclosure to keep the sharks out, NO ONE would even put their feet in the water ankle deep in the canal. BIG Sharks have OFTEN surged right into a foot of water, or shallower, and snatched dogs and occasionally people. I was about 200 meters down the beach from a girl who stepped into water not even knee deep on her, to grab the bow of a boat, and she was INSTANTLY snatched off her feet and torn in half right there beside the boat, by half a dozen sharks. They recovered half of her body, and WHILE they were doing it, two REALLY big sharks were fighting over some part of her and spraying the people with foam.
Just make sure the banded rudderfish is 14”-22” long they have a slot limit. But they’re very good on the grill. I’ve caught them at that pier early in the morning. The bigger ones tend to run in around first light. Usually a small blue runner works really well. Also you might get into the northern mackerel at that time as well. Good eating as well.

Dang, those people on the beach swimming out have no clue how easily a tiger shark could rip them to shreds.
Really cool video! Shows how sharks honestly prefer not to mess with us if they don’t have to. All those fish by the pier are far more appealing to them. Even with them being tiger sharks one of the more deadly and aggressive species people are likely to run into. Though really any shark over 6ft can potentially be dangerous to us. Still. Not a reason to avoid the ocean, be respectful and cautious around them, don’t act like panicked injured prey and they will likely leave you alone.

Sharks are always near the piers .. always.. they know that easy meals are around the pier.. whether when a fisherman is reeling in a fish, or tossing guts into the water from cleaning fish, to throwing fish back… they KNOW it’s an easy meal opportunity. My local piers have sinks on them and the water drains into the ocean and slaps the top of the water… it is not uncommon to see 10-20 sharks right around that area.. so many people clean their fish in these spots.. they’re ready!!
