Great White on the Papoose (NC Wreck Dive with IFAD) 02/08/2023
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
Nothing tops diving in the winter off the coast of North Carolina and we are about to show you why. Our offshore wrecks hold hundreds of sand tiger sharks as well as visitors that are migrating through our area. It is not uncommon to see Great White sharks in our waters, especially during the cooler months. No cage. No bait. Just dive! And how do you sign up for this sweet dive?

Absolutely stunning, from the bait ball to the hundreds of sand tigers, to the great white. Best shark diving video I’ve seen off NC

I can agree with the bait ball and the sand tigers, but I didn't see the Great White!😢

Can sand tigers be dangerous?
That one shark came up to you like “excuse me sir i think you might be lost” LOL
And to think sand tiger populations are decimated down to only 10% of its 1990 estimate. We need to let our oceans recover to their former glory. Great video!

Kill all sharks
Probably the best dive video I’ve seen so far. You’re so brave. There were so many sharks out there and The Great White was just majestic. Beautiful!

Lol Or are you just so unbelievably tough and bad ass that you can’t even perceive how one might view diving in shark infested waters as requiring SOME sort of bravery? Lol I hope you’re trolling, but even so, not a very well placed, funny, or clever troll at all lol. You’re just a douche any way you spin it tbh

Come to Southern California, they are all over the place. No shortage of great whites in the world when you can see a handful any day of the week in San Diego.

Thank you kindly
Can't believe what i am seeing...absolutely fascinating
This looks like it was an incredible dive even before seeing the great white. I am beyond jealous!!! Lucky dog, you 😂!
The muffled Yelp of shock when you saw it looming in the distance Lol 😅 I would have done the same thing I was wondering when it was going to pop up
Mind blowing
what a contact...😱😱😱😱😱...great white...fantastic dive
What an amazing dive. This is maybe the best I’ve seen on KZread.
Fish and divers are friends, not just food! I think it would have been a code brown for me! Hats off to you Sir!

Not just food? What an ignorant statement to make or should I say hypocritical one! You can be friends with animals you eat! If you loved and respected them, why would you pay someone else to murder them for you?

Thanks for the solid recommandation of the algorithm, what a sight to behold. The amount of sand tiger is insane !! And the way the GWS appears and desapears so effortlessly is mind bowgling ! Awesome video !
I feel your excitement in your underwater yell as you realize a great white is only dozens of feet from you AND THAT YOU GOT IT ON CAMERA!!
Love NC diving! Almost always very sharky. I can only imagine your excitement seeing that white shark swimming around. Awesome!!
they are warm blooded and smart and likely sense everything around them. scary kool.
Simply awesome :o
i’ve watched a bunch of these types of videos. this is undoubtedly one of the best. it feels like a dream. what an absolutely amazing sight to see. to top it off mr white stopped by for a cameo. what luck!!! amazing video. i loved it.

@@oreldm Makos look a bit more like Great Whites, but probably the closest in terms of looks would be the Salmon shark, which almost looks exactly like a smaller GW. I flubbed a bit by confusing the Lemon with the Salmon. Either way around, the sharks around the bait ball in this video were definitely Sand Tigers.

Thank you very much.
This is craaaaaazy! What a dive I can’t get over it. Imagine surfacing after that lol.
Wow. Nice.
Grey nurse are a pleasure to dive with. So chill yet powerful.
FFS I'm getting anxious and sweaty just looking at it. But wow what a dive
I love this video -- you always hear about how rarely sharks attack humans, but somehow with Al the media it's hard to really believe until you see something like this. Absolutely beautiful. Of course, you also need to keep respectful and realize that there's always a chance of things going wrong, like with any wild animal.
This is the best diving footage I have seen in ages
It seems like the GWS was resting, yet still swimming. Like the other sharks. This is fascinating footage because it shows how they rest

Wow so many fish and sharks just chillin. And that White was enormous!
That’s a lot of raggedy ragged tooth sand sharks. Good size too. Then top it off with a Great White. Wow. I did this dive once. Very cool but not this many. Very cool.
Wow this is just amazing
W ! O ! W ! 😮
It was incredible bro!
What a dive!!!!!!!! Amazing, thanks for sharing.
Awesome. Congratulations on this once in a lifetime video of the Great White. I have been on the Papoose many times and have never seen anywhere near the # of Sand Tigers you filmed. Really really cool video. Guess it's time to head back to NC for some more diving.

Come join us Steve! While we tend to have sand tigers year-round, the larger volume of sharks are on our wrecks in the winter when they are preparing to pup.
Cool Dive a lot of Grey Nurse’s and a little surprise checking you out at the end. Thanks for sharing
Just checking in for my 200th viewing of this video! Excellent work, Cindy. Your love for sharks is inspiring!🙌
Wow.....the great white is like dinosaur titan
That's one of the biggest bait balls ive ever seen !!! What an extraordinary opportunity to have someone show us so much love. ❤
Awesome
Wow
What a phenomenal sight! So many shark...and smaller fish!!
That's a fun piece of video. Thanks for sharing it.
At first sight, my wet suit would have warmed up straight away. Cool post! Cheers.
awesome
Amazing!
What an incredible experience
This reminds me of the warehouse scene when the zombies are sleeping in "I am legend"
So much admiration for people who dive. I’d literally freeze in the presence of a great white, let alone the sand tigers on mass.
The great white just passed by like, “hello sir how has your day been going, I shall kindly leave you to do your hooman things”
Amazing dive!!!! Thank you for sharing. Also thank you for not putting some dumb song over the cool sounds of the dive. I'm guessing that was a 9' to 11 foot White. Amazing
Beautiful! It is all so calm 👀
You know a great white shark is big when it makes the sand tigers look small.
Wow))) ❤🦈❤️👍
They're all in "sleep mode", interesting, like a shark hotel at night.
Breathing intensifies. What a rush! Whites are a lifer for me.
Looks like mostly female sand tigers. As someone else commented, they are probably there to drop their pups. The Great White certainly put them into perspective! What a privilege to see! Although, my wetsuit would definitely have needed a good scrub out!
this is actually insane. must have been crazy to see in person. probably more terrifying.
Dang. I didn't realize the wrecks were so full of life in the winter. Amazing footage, and amazing great white encounter!!!
Thresher Sharks everywhere!
Its amazing how fish move in unison like that. Wild
Been there done that folks. Remain calm.
So many grey nurses!
Gnarly. I am from NC but dive Guam. I have never dove NC. One day I will return and check it out. Nice work. Impressive bait balls.
Looks like you became an honorary shark with all those fish swimming round you like they do the tigers 😅
Holy shark!
I was waiting for the scream 😂🤙
I wouldn't be scared if I was around 100 sand tiger sharks.... But if 1 Great white swam by I would have fainted lol
Amazing!!! 🎉🎉🎉
You are blessed to see all this beautiful animals in nature!
Absolutely awesome.
That was definitely a "Everybody hide yo' shit, Deebo's coming.." moment...
Wow this is so awesome, so much life!
simultaneously gorgeous and terrifying
Amazing,… like an alien world down there. I would never have the courage for that.
Sick to see all those species coexisting like that
Just after he screamed with excitment.. The White said.. Huh ? Dinner !!!
I like how those itty bitty fishes surround you waiting for the scraps after the gws tears you apart.
The Gathering, There can only BE ONE!!
Duuuude!!! I would have shat myself. lol
Enjoyed watching this. Thanks for sharing
Look at the tail on that thing! So big and aggressive
Incredible footage!!!!!
unreal
LOOK AT ALL THOSE BEAUTIFUL SHARKS
