😂

bblando65 it's not animal it's a fish .i bet u don't cry when u eat chicken or a burger

Same

Me too. I have been watching every great white shark video. The damage they can do when they make that first attack is ridiculous. They are the most terrifying and fascinating creatures on planet earth

Elizabeth Hodge Er what?

Looks like bioluminescence

It's an algal bloom.

Bloats?

***** That's true blue Aussie. Are you from over seas?

Catweasle love it 👍

Catweasle Didn't understand a bloody word. Definitely Aussie.

True blue ocker.

Prince Ricker it was caught in a net and my guess is the color of the water is due to mud at the shores edge....it became clear just a bit further out.

WALKMAN Aussie bogan 🤔 I'm pretty sure Aussies don't care weather you can understand us or not.... if anything we'd have to talk in not a bright fashion for you to understand

Adrian Smith *whether

Could not agree, more.

If there is one thing I can't stand it is monster shark hunters like Vic Hislop. We don't need people like this today. I absolutely hate these monster shark goofs. I don't want a world where the only place you can see a great white shark is stuffed hanging in the Smithsonian. And all these monster shark macho goofs are part of it.

roquefortfiles Easy there, it's not the 70's & 80's anymore. The Great White population is thriving & is actually returning to an abundant level.

PJ Neslo They have more right than we do 🤘🏻

They have every right to be right where they are. It's us that needs to respect their home.

It's a Great White you novice!

pursuit 82 No need to be so rude. After watching the footage again, I have to admit I was wrong. It IS a Great White. I can now see the white at the lower ends of the tail and the distinctive wide caudal keel as the shark thrashes about. Everyone can make a mistake and today this was mine! Great White it is...

Peter Fellowes you got it wrong and admitted it, something you don't see often good on ya

The net it was stuck in was the problem mate... initially the crew though it was dead and it was up side down not moving and second boat was brought in... probably should of died as it was stationary for some time give or take.....

@@Scrimroy gotcha thanx..have u ever seen a red tide?..pretty nasty

bill baggins

well dont order the fish next time you go out for dinner

Jason John West uses pole and line bro

I think it's sediment from the shallow water the shark was stuck in.

It's an algal bloom, sometimes called red tide. It occurs in hot spells, and when water begin s to become anoxic (deoxygenated). Incredibly dangerous to marine life for two reasons: it physically suffocates them through coating the gills; and removes oxygen from the water. The lack of oxygen makes the shark dopey and restricts oxygen flow to the brain, resulting lethargy, poor decisions, and it prevents the flight instinct from getting the shark (or any animal) out of danger. The red tide makes everything dopey, that why the,shark wasn't moving. As soon as it was in clear water it was fine, and clearly was thinking again, which is why it came back to assess and observe the humans that helped it. That beauty will now trust humans, sadly.

Tanja Tanja because

That's because they're all drunk on Fosters beer ;)

no Tasmanians drink fosters beer . its terrible. south drink cascade and north drink boags . im from north boags is better . but that's what i grew up with

hamish grant Most Tasmanians drink Fosters, you buffoon.

Duhettard Yinnerbuttol . is that a fact billy the kid . well how long have you lived in Tasmania for ?

hamish grant Twenty-two years, Cindy the girl ;)

It's been confirmed , I will post he news coverage soon, cheers

7:58, that is most definitely a pointer.... the size and the white belly with the gray top. 15 footer.

Michael Collier. Ha! Looks like about the right amount of it as well. A brown tide.

Do it like Charlie; don't surf.

no you are very wrong... 1 Great white... as for the thresher shark i.d like others before you, I am guessing you have not googled a picture of one, let alone seen one in real life. first one to call two different sharks though.

Tail replicates a thresher shark because it is in such shallow water and is propped up on the seabed. It's a white pointer.

fuckin oath

hahaha

If the shark bit you it would have to lick its own arse to get the taste out of its mouth...

check out my vid "Tasmanian translation of wow dolphins" and you will also see our vocab is broad also...

THE GUYS TALKING ARE BLOODY FUNNY AS ... HAHAHAH THEY MAKE THE VIDEO..

I'm an Australian and my best guess as to why we talk the way we do is . 1> It's a blend of how aboriginals speak 2> believe it or not if you spend a lot of time in the bush and you open your mouth too much a fly will go straight down it. I live in a city so the problem in cities isn't so bad but when I go out the bush I try not to open my mouth too much, seriously you can easily swallow 4 or five flies in about half an hour. So if you wan't to try having an Australian accent hold your nose while speaking and don't open you mouth much. A word which is modified by Australians is "how" in full Aussie mode we say ow. I think the h was dropped because that's the point at which the fly flew into your mouth. So "how are you" is "ow are ya". BTW we run our words together with little or no breaks. It's even confused me when I got my first job my boss said "didjahavacanacoke" . I had to have him repeat it 4 times before I understood him , "Did You Have A Can of Coke".

lol that's pretty accurate actually

Michelle Clough It swam right by them at the end. seemed to be ok.

Michelle Clough that's why they freed it???? now it's moving and can breathe 🤔

I don't know how I missed that footage

Actually....Firstly, thanks for the compliment. Lovely. There is another version of the footage where it does not show the shark swimming way, as an aside I am happy to see the musing of a non-judgmental person. Well done on your parents.

It was exhausted from struggling with the net. Literally needed to rest.

The story can also be read about in the book “White Pointer South” , By Chris Black,a book about Great White Sharks in Tasmania. Please google “Thrasher/Thrasher Shark”, hit images and you will see what one looks like.........
