Disclaimer, this information is in an effort to help people to respond to an approach, it may not be effective if you are not highly maneuverable and sure of your movements in water. It may also not be effective depending on the shark, number of sharks, visibility, current, and human impact/situation and other species in the area. there are many variables in a dynamic marine environment and while sharks are still far more predictable than humans (who are highly emotional animals that are generally not very good about making calculated decisions on the side of caution) sharks are still wild apex predators and should be respected for their important role as predators. It is not my wish or intent with this information that anyone purposefully get in the water to attempt to replicate this, please only think of this information if you are in a necessity situation where a large shark is swimming up to you. Please learn more by reading my book "What you should know about sharks" and watch my online course available from Inspire Courses (link on my website: OceanRamsey.Org Stay safe and thank you so much for supporting shark and marine conservation.

I don’t scuba dive/snorkel….I’m watching these and some others re sharks simply to learn about sharks-knew zero before. They have transformed/opened up my narrow (“Jaws” movies) view of sharks. N 3:04 ow I realize that they are sentient creatures and they are crucially important for our aquatic ecosystem. Thank you for these wonderful videos. I’m passing along this info to my friends who scuba/snorkel.

@TheNCcope 2 ай бұрын

Reef sharks are non aggressive and travel in groups bull sharks and hammerheads are more aggressive and tend to travel alone. Bull sharks are responsible for most attacks on humans better to keep a respectful distance from them. Reef sharks are okay and they will get within 2-3ft of me when I'm diving and they are chill. Biggest sign is watch to pectoral fins and for rapid movement and direction changes

Just found out my Dad's taking my younger brother for their "every few years trip" to scuba dive and it's Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt where they had 3 attacks in 2 days and 2 in like ten mins...I asked my Dad if he knew the risk and he just goes "oh I've been back 3x since then (Sharm is basically just a strip with like 6 to 8 huuuge resorts) and so I asked which resort it happened at (the year I went In 06 we were at one resort when another way bombed killing 144people and shutting down the holiday etc, even Bush flew over cuz so many Americans sadly died, so anywaynturbs out the attacks happened AT OUR FRIGGIN RESORT! And I rarely have dreams this vivid but before I know they were going I dreamt of being amidst a shark attack the week he told me so I had to send this vid to my Dad and bro for my own peace of mind... My biggest fear is they see a bull shark since they're just straight aggressive so thanks for maybe saving my dad or bros life this week,,!

@latoyaGeorgeblusher02 2 жыл бұрын

@jimbeam7160 2 жыл бұрын

No. You never swim in murky water with The Bull Shark........ever. It doesn't take a big Bull Shark to wound you and or devour you. Any five footer is a handful. Getting assaulted during the first strike will show you how powerful and vicious these creatures can be when stoked. Tigers are notorious agressive sharks, and on a whim, they will make your life very difficult if you survive. Locking your elbow will never detour a hungry shark (Tiger, White tip, Bull Shark, GWS). Ocean hasn't run into the bad shark who's gonna maul her some day. She's not even carrying a weapon...just a go pro camera? Wouldn't it be safer not to carry a camera in one hand, so you have two free hands to play "stiff arm" as a very dubious deterent. Anybody deluded enough to think you can swim with sharks because they're sweet, loveable, happy creatures deserving your friendship (like Ocean and her husband promote) hasn't really read enough shark attack stories. Once a shark is hungry, everything Ocean is promoting goes out the window. She hasn't met her match yet, but I predict she will if she insists on swimming with sharks. There is no way you can always be aware of all sharks all the time when there are several sharks in the water. Her little tips and tricks may not be enough in every situation. I wouldn't gamble my life and limbs day after day to make videos to build a brand and wrap it in the heroic romanticism of conservation. I wouldn't want to play hero with frigging sharks. Sure, you can stiff arm sharks all day. Just hope several aren't hungry at once and hope your luck doesn't run out. Don't ever think that a stiff arm from a diver is gonna prevent a fatal bite or mauling. There's no such thing as being a shark whisperer so you can be popular on social media. Ocean's rationalizations like "sharks are just curious" ignores that their curiosity is alot like any other predator: they are curious about victimizing you. Ocean prefers to think these sharks are just friendly, like little kids on a playground looking for a new playmate to swim together. She's been lucky so far. When I see her stiff arm defense, I see an attempted slow motion bite attempt. Any bite puts blood in the water. It takes nothing to get a shark frenzy going. Especially if you come across a Bull Shark or any other hungry shark. White tips are famous for attacking as a group, and will strip you and drag you deep along with Tigers. Bull Sharks will chomp, circle, swallow, and return until you are totally consumed. Make no mistake how idiotic Ocean Ramsey and her brand is: nobody swims with sharks this long without finding how the odds are against you eventually. Deluded fools like Ocean are pressing their luck as they drink their own Kool Aid before singing "Kum Ba Ya" with her shark pals. We saw this delusional romanticism displayed by another fool named "Tim The Bear Man" up in Alaska who thought he was one with The Kodiak Bears. He liked the attention he got as a self appointed Bear expert. He enjoyed creating his brand and lived off the misguided attention given to impotent fools who wrap themselves in sepia tones of heroism as conservators with special powers.

From that video it looked like the shark was circling him during the time he was treading water yelling for help. I think even though he was bitten he should have tried to swim towards safety. Of course the shark would have caught up but maybe just maybe he could have bought himself a few more seconds. Just enough that boat rescuers could have pulled him out. Then again who knows…

These people exploit sharks for instagram attention. It's a business. She's not a scientist, despite giving the appearance to be. She fondles sharks and puts herself and teammembers at risk for no value whatsoever other than instagram likes. She encourages people seeking out and touching sharks, something that is bound to end badly. All you need is one mistake at a key moment or one animal acting unpredictably and tragedy is there. Respect sharks. Give them space. They are the top dogs.

Wild animal - not so much. What shocked me the most is how badly mankind has imprinted on these animals. Look at the Tiger at 1:00: - two devices attached to the dorsal fin. It might also be one device at two places punctured through the dorsal fin by means of an operation which requires the animal to be caught, tied up, lifted out of the water. A horrific ordeal for the animal. Science should not hurt or kill the animals. - one divice pierced through the skin at the base of the dorsal fin - the jaws are terribly disfigured, probably a hook that ripped it´s jaw apart. At least a macho fisherman can later recal his heroic deeds at the bar. - 2:19 the hook is still in it´s mouth with the leader partly on it. It must be most cumbersome for the animal as the rotting hook will cause an infection. It is surprising that these critters are still roaming the sea, mangled as they are. Many others who experienced the same torture are probably on the oceanfloor. Let alone shark finning which is also a very unbecoming process for the sharks. In this context I am astonished about the media frenzy how Ocean is interacting with the sharks. It is gentle and relaxed on both parts. Ocean is a star and propells the cause for the sharks!!!
