Powder. Well yeah I think the shark was a combination of curious and testing. I think it wasn't familiar with humans so the first approach was seeing what it was and whether it was something good for eating. Then the second approach was about testing to see whether the human is a defenseless thing that will turn it's back in flight response. The third approach on the surface was the same, curious and testing the human's level of defense. At that stage it was still testing, not sure what the go is with the human. If the shark was familiar with humans, it very much would have attacked from the start, if it liked human flesh that is. If the shark was committed from the start, it would have mauled on that first approach when it snuck up on him. Luckily the shark was in curious mode. Not harmless curious mode though, it was curious in regards to 'can I kill this strange thing I've never seen before'. It was a fairly dangerous situation, it really was. But peter's comment is still funny XD I don't think it was a sociable curiousity though, it was in prospective hunting mode. Good call about the weed but!

This had some similarity with a horrible '89 attack in Italy. That diver also panicked which likely triggered the shark's predatory instinct. But this was a much larger shark and that diver didn't have a speargun to protect himself. He was attacked and taken underwater by the shark when trying to swim back to his boat, never to be seen again. They later only found a flipper and diving gear. A scene straight from the movie Jaws.

I see it like this, the shark is simply a hunter. It does not think as much as us, it's entire survival is based on knowing how to catch victims. as you can tell, it was doing just that. however, it did not commit, possibly because it didn't want to risk it's life over something it isn't sure about. sharks typically only pick on things that they think are weaker, if it were a dolphin or an Orca whale, the shark would likely attempt to book it. maybe it sensed danger when the human reacted with the weapon, so it disengaged briefly, and then it lost it's opportunity to strike when the human was ready and alert. i think the shark was actually trying to bite him, it just didn't expect the amount of resistance. you have to remember, human's react very differently than fish when they're in danger, fish just swim away, human's have defensive skills. something that sharks are not used to seeing from weaker\smaller prey. plus, the bubbles might had done something to the sharks senses.

I have enough respect for the ocean 'not to go near it'. the water is so damn deep, it is denser than a forest with the volume of camouflage, and it is a place where most creatures and predators have grown senses that allow them to hunt without visually seeing something. you're naive to think that the ocean is free for us to find food in, the shark was there to remind you that you're not in a playground buddy. these are hunting grounds, the only place that humans cannot dominate and multiply. sharks are as lethal as one of those prehistoric dinosaurs, they're very exceptional predators with pure instinct to eat just about anything. it is just so careless to wonder into these places, as soon as you get into that deep dense ocean you're back in an older world. the ocean has hardly changed since the dinosaurs, it still has very scary apex predators that humans don't dare go near.

The truth is that one great white at that size could attack and kill a diver from any angle in few seconds. They can move over 50 km/h and their prey-recognition hability is far better than people think. Humans are not a target for them, and that's the only reason why you can see hundreds of shark videos interacting with humans and no real attacks in them (maybe one day, they are wild animals after all). It's the same reason why other big sea predators don't attack us. Thousands of years of evolution determine that if you swim with a shark, probably nothing gonna happen. If you walk next to a wild land predator (big enought) you probably will be attacked, killed or eaten. Maybe all at once...

I though that day was my last day , all I did was pray while swimming backwards towards the beach . On the video he was coming my way , then turned around , moving towards me again and then got distracted by the fish on the buoy that was about 2.5 m dragging behind us . When it got to shallow for him he turned around .

Wouldn't mind seeing that video

If he was attacking, you would'nt of seen him at 0:45. He is a predator at heart, if he was hungry.. he was already behind you without you knowing a thing. He would not of hesitated.

+Kudo Sharks don't know human physiology, it most likely had no idea it was "behind" since most fish are able to see behind themselves to varying degrees. Most animals when hunting a larger prey will not all in attack the animal, but test it's movement with near passes, nips, and endurance chasing. It is possible since it's a great white it could have gone for an extreme bite. But that's pretty rare in deep water.

SACPH4N70M i'm saying if its legitimately hungry, thats normally why attacks happen in the first place right?

+Kudo That is really not true. I do shark fishing for recreation/tagging for research and have gotten to watch sharks a decent bit. You only see a quick first pass strike now and again. A lot of the time you will see them pass the bait once or twice, or do a close pass, before hitting. More alpha predator sharks seem to investigate more. The most I've seen a shark prepare to strike was a mako, and it actually tried to get the bird near my bait instead of the bait... after almost 1.5 hours of circling and preparing.

David Murphy Yeah I kinda worded that wrong I mean that if he's seeing the shark for the first time, chances are it's preparing rather than about go for him.

0:45 It seems to me, i scared more than this diver.

Dude when you looked back down and he was there I nearly jumped out of my seat.

Amazing footage and a happy ending.

Yes a happy ending could've been bad considering all the Imagine filming your own death.

Hell nah to the nah nah nah

what's point of getting out of water. ..not that big or aggressive of great white. ..if you are diving in areas where great whites you are already taking the risk, that shark can smell and see you long long time b4 you can. ..if he wanted to attack you you're fkd anyways. worst thing to do is panic and swim away. ..you can't escape ashark you are just going to look like injured prey. the shark is used to hunting things that run away from it. best thing to do is hold ground stay calm and try to look intimidating. a human under water with a bunch of gear on looks weird to a shark, he was just checking you out. it's possible that shark has never seen a human before. ..that's the best thing you got going for you

A salty ol sea dog once told me that he is more worried about the Sharks in the car park.

When you dive down you can see the body of the shark on the left side of the reef, before he comes close to you with his head and you notice him the first time from the left side? I wonder what the shark does there lurking so close by the reef but maybe he was surprised by your appearence too at first.

Respect, but how on earth do you scream like that under water??? I even hear a breath after the second scream.

Must be the shark breathing

what an exciting day for the shark.

Shark: Relax, it's just a prank bro

The shark would never be able to find me as long as I stayed hidden in my stealthy cloud of diarrhea

He was curious - didn't seem particularly aggressive to me... But then again I'm no shark expert.

+Damon Hargrave The shark being aggressive would result in it mouthing the diver. They'd go bite him a little to see if he's food. No mouthing = no aggression. They're not stupid.

Well the sharks get curious you know. In murky waters they can't see well. You can see the visibility is shit. Looking for a meal and I guess if you look like a seal. I guess it saw he wasn't and left him alone. I personally would have pooped a little. But yeah they're masters of their realm. Snuck right up on him lol.

You think if a man is skin diving the shark would be like "Oh its a human, not a seal, Im gonna keep away from him" like theyre supposed to distinguish land dwelling humans and put us off the menu because we have feelings. Human ignorance staggers me.

Diver: AAHHHH Shark: Nah! I don’t have time for this.

Hahaha... Diver: AAAHHHH!! Shark: AAAAHHHHH!

I like how these "great white" close encounters are all with Whites that couldn't be considered adult. If I had to guess at MOST that shark was maybe 12 feet long if not smaller. A Great White that size while it can still bite is not NEARLY as dangerous as a 14+ footer and you notice you never see those on these Go-Pro videos. Why? Because for those shark curiosity is taking a very large bite out of something.

12 ft is an adult. Juveniles are 6-10ft.

Nope nopety nope nope!

that animal is adorable and you are screaming at it like a lunatic

that visibility is dreadful, that shark probably stumbled into you out of pure blindness lmao. Shark - "Hey mate you seen my glasses?" Dude - "AGHHHHHHHH" Shark - "I must've put them somwhere round here..."

Your reaction back on the boat was laid laid back, I don't know how I'd be in that situation, one thing I do know, my wetsuit would be full of shit. Do you think this shark was just starting to move from feeding on fish to bigger prey like mammals? It seemed unsure of it'self, a more experienced white would have had you in it;s jaws

That shark was chillin

I'd never pop my head above the water. I'd also never go into the deep ocean

His scream is just... golden ! ahahahahahahahaha Waiting for the boat must be the worst moment! lucky diver ;)
