Surfers Exit Water After I Warn Them White Shark Approaches
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
In this Vlog style entry, I narrate the events as they occur live.
On Feb. 7th, 2021, while everyone else is watching the Super Bowl, I head out to an empty beach in search of whales and sharks. I end up warning a couple surfers about a white shark that is approaching them.
The surfers left the water after the shark came close. While, I don't believe the shark was purposely hunting them, it's wise to leave the water if there is prey in the vicinity.
Special thanks to photographer Amanda Elkins for capturing the audio and video as this occurred. / amandapelkins

This should be an official "shark safety" program employed by the coastguard. Probably a lot cheaper (and less infinitely less cruel) than miles and miles of netting.

incredible, how far, filming technology has come. Drone footage is a game changer.
Thanks for showing these amazing creatures. You’re footage and narration is great and educational for many folks that have fears of these creatures. I wouldn’t want to be swimming next to one but seeing how they interact with their environment is lovely to see.
Thanks for everything you share with all of us. I'm sure it's a labor of love for you but for the viewer it's priceless. I realized that I get 100% present while I watch your videos. I look forward to following along on your journey.

This is one of those Hidden Gem channels, i wanted to ask, what ever happens if you lose control, somehow the drone ends up in the water? Is it fully waterproof, how do you "fish" it out?
@fpvsushi8590
3 жыл бұрын
It is extremely unlikely to lose control of one of these drones. They are super easy to fly due to all of their sensors and auto leveling capabilities. If something did go wrong it would probably end up in the water and at that point it would be toast. It's not waterproof so the salt water would fry everything.
Love this channel. Look forward to every vid.

Lord knows I tried to prove my love. That is was worthy but sometimes I guess you can't see the end of the rainbow because the rain was there 1st or you look over the rainbow and forget it as soon as you see the pot of gold. I am like the beautiful 🌈 full of life and hope. Bowed or humped back with 7 colors. Blue to red one color to the last in varying intensity based on the temperature and allowing for refractory and common denominator... Blue to red the extreme difference but still all cometh from the light in which passed by the H20 molecules and projectory of the wave length that giveth the temperature variance from least to greatest as it bends and rides on a wavelength. Once it is final in destination it casteth the wave either closer to or further away. The height of the wave just as in the ocean has a crest and the date in which it falls is the calculation of which is the equation in mathematical form. I spoke about this yesterday and here is where it lies in the puzzle.... Infrared. There is other colors which are not visible to the naked human eye present within the rainbow. The temperature assists in the air of which causes the temperature to rise or fall. Like the oceanic waves once again. The closer they are together... The slower the wave in total start to finish. The straighter less height is faster. So, the time it took for the infared color to appear is the height X weight X width. Hww. The ir is much hotter in temperaturevthan other said colors. Therefore the rate of pitch is the factoring equation used to configure the rate of drop in pitch is the answer
You must be experiencing some significant growth in your channel. This footage is great, keep it coming 🤙
Every busy beach should have a drone life guard like you.
Love your channel and THUMBS UP for warning the surfers.
I've only recently found your channel but I love it and always look forward to the next video.
Such a good channel, no nonsense no dumb promotions, just perfect content. Keep it up!
Glad to see your sticking to the narration and not bending to those who are not smart enough to turn off the volume if they don't like it :-) (for reasons I'll never understand). That could have been a potentially very bad outcome for those surfers. Amazing footage once again.
I’m so happy I found this channel. Subbed.
Just started viewing this channel; great and informative! Thank you.
I think this channel is providing a highly valuable service to the public users of our coastline. Every video has amazing footage of never before recorded shark observation. Sure there are some people who have been able to make similar observations about shark behavior. But never in recorded form such as this. Sharks are rarely seen by us divers and I have only been able to capture a single good photo of a large white shark. And that was only because it was feeding, having launched itself like a torpedo from the bottom in less visible water up to its intended meal then after the initial attack it seemed to cruise around waiting for a safe time to start eating without the seal biting. It was probably looking for other sharks that would sneak in for a free bite if they could. I have also seen a few larger sharks farther out on fishing grounds that come zipping past the boat looking just like a grey torpedo in some WWII documentary. It is a momentary fright and shock to one's senses!
Bruh how do u only have 25k subs?! Holy shit this is amazing!
Just a thought: Would be interesting to hear convo with the surfers / water goers when you interact with them. Because many of us probably wondering what we would do/feel like in similar situation.
Did either of those surfers offer to buy you a drink?! :D "Bruh, let me buy you a beer, thanks man!"

First thing I do is check for the pectoral fins to see if Hi Five s around, I hope he is ok. This is a very sophisticated way of spotting sharks in beaches and it should be used by authorities. You probably have more data in your videos than some other shark research programs, keep it up, excellent work.
super cool man !! warning them ...I have seen some drone operators that just fly the drone ... and in fact have a "lets see what the shark does " but that shark was def going straight for them .
Such beautiful videos and I love that you are protecting sharks and humans. These videos are really relaxing could almost go to sleep watching them lol. Thanks for all you do 💜💚❤️
I watch all of your vids and it is extremely fascinating how you made a popular profession by eyeballing these predators for the safety of people. But most of all your dexterity in working all the equipment is a talent. You make the vid very interesting. But behind all these videos are persistence, patience, talent, and a genuine interest in saving people from life-changing events. Tracking sharks vids is creepy but you make it so interesting. M I was body surfing in thigh-high water at Daytona Beach in mid- summer. Something hard but rubbery clipped me behind my knees forcing me forward and to lose my balance. I took off toward the shore jumping the waves to propel me closer in land. Never once did I think it was a shark, but it must have been a bull sharp testing me out. That was about 25 years ago before the popularity and frequency of attacks were major incidence. I was lucky on that day.
This channel is amazing,! Keep em coming
I love this. Not only does it protect humans, but it especially protects the sharks. Ultimately, we're in their habitat and this is a great way to keep a peaceful balance for both parties.
