For those of you wondering, the max sizes of Megalodon are estimates, basically guesses made from calculations of the size from teeth alone. Of course, there's NO EVIDENCE that Megalodon can grow to 70 or 80 feet like many believe to this day, 20.3 meters(67 feet) is likely the maximum size but without a skeleton or complete fossilized jaws scientists are only using estimates at best. While many scientists choose the Great White Shark as the best analogue for the Megalodon, they must also accept that the Megalodon jaws and teeth as well as spacing between teeth MAY have been different from Great White Sharks. Regardless, the Megalodon was the largest shark as well as one of the most ferocious predators of prehistory. Comment made: 5:45 AM Thursday, July 21 2022

Both Otodontidae and Lamnidae were in the order Lamniformes which also consists of Megamouth Shark, Basking Shark and Goblin Shark. While Megalodon is extinct it is possible for some other yet unknown species of Otodus to be alive, maybe something of 30 feet but not something 40, 50 or 60 feet.
