they definitely hit him with the "oh so you like sharks, name every shark"

Man heavy respect to the scuba diver for risking his life to get us a size comparison with those deadly sharks 😬

Fun fact about greenland sharks, they have been found to be one of the longest living animals in the world, with one individual estimated to be over 400 years old. They reach sexual maturity at around 150 years old.

Can we just appreciate the fact that Whale Sharks have harmless baby teeth and are friendly puppers.

Such well behaved sharks, lining up to get their photos taken.

The fact that so many of those huge extinct sharks had spines on their fins kinda concerns me. Many small fish have similar spines as a defense mechanism to not get eaten whole...

I’m mostly amazed at how they got all these extinct sharks here, let alone get them all to line up without moving. Massive credits to the diver, camera man and the rest of the team who put together this amazing video.

I’m bored, so here are fun facts about sharks: -The small scales on sharks are known as “Denticles”. They are very sharp, and different species denticles look very different to one another under microscopes. -The top 4 most dangerous sharks, based off attacks on people, are the great white, the tiger, the bull, and the oceanic whitetip Shark. -tiger sharks have been found with things such as pillows, armour, number plates, and even land animal remains, likely thrown in by boats. -there have only been a few megamouth sharks ever washed up, and one is at the Fremantle Maratime Museum in Western Australia. I have seen it lots of times myself. -many scientists think that the bull Shark is more dangerous than the great white, because they live close to shore, near humans, and in murky water, where it is very difficult to see them. They usually escape unseen after attacks. -tiger sharks and sand tiger sharks are not related. The great white is closer related to the sand tiger Shark than the actual tiger shark. Funny coincidence, huh? -only 6 known species live dominantly in rivers. They are very rare. -the smallest Shark, the dwarf lantern shark, is the size of a banana, but the whale shark can grow up to 20 metres, the size of 2 school buses. -there have only been a few great whites successfully put in captivity, and survived. Most great whites die the first few days of captivity. -tiger sharks actually get bigger than great whites on average. -cookie cutter sharks take bites of things that are very small, like mackerel, but also massive creatures like whales. They even bite underwater cables and SUBMARINES! -cookie cutter sharks are actually parasites, as they feed on living creatures, and they rarely die after attacks, just missing a bit of flesh. Anyways, that’s all for now, hope you enjoyed😊 Edit: I’m still bored, so I’ll try and name every shark I can- great white, tiger shark, bull shark, sand tiger, frilled shark, horn shark, wobbegong, epeualette, cookie cutter, lantern shark, basking shark, megamouth, shortfin mako, longfin mako, goblin shark, catshark, dogfish, sawshark, greenland, roughshark, salmon shark, porbeagle shark, six gill shark, sleeper shark, seven gill shark, spinner shark, dusky shark, reef shark (all types), great hammerhead, scalloped hammerhead, speartooth shark, crocodile shark, lemon shark, night shark, whale shark, bronze whaler, gummy shark, angleshark, port- Jackson shark, weasel shark, zebra shark, leopard shark, thresher shark, blue shark, and I’m done, I can’t think of any more. Hope you enjoyed, comment a shark that I missed (alive today)😊. Thanks

I can honestly say, I had no idea there were so many different species of sharks. Nicely done.

... You know, of all the songs one could play when showing us the largest sharks in history, I did not expect an instrumental version of Dschinghis Khan's Moskau.

12:47 The Great White or otherwise known as Carcharodon carcharias is easy to miss, if you think or expect (as I did) that it would be in the final category for size. Just putting the time stamp in to really hammer in how it wasn't near the end of the video!!!

Towards the end, I thought all larger sharks were extinct, so I was surprised with the Basking Shark and the Whale Shark being still living sharks and making it that high on the list.

We are fortunate to witness 2nd largest shark. Fun fact: Sharks only leave their teeth as fossils, so we don't know exactly what extinct sharks really looked like.

Its crazy how many (even big ones) sharks are there that I never heard about. And I watched my fair share of ocean documentarys. Almost feels like every documentary shows the same 5 to ten species of sharks, and noone bothers to show more species.

Extremely appreciate the time taken to produce such quality work. Its fun to observe the morphologic changes over evolution. Besides, really like the background opera.

The Greenland shark is my favorite. They’re so slow and docile that you kind of forget that they could end you in one bite should they be hungry. They just move slowly to conserve energy. They are more than capable of moving quickly to catch their prey.

Amazing that the diver survived all that apparent danger😰

great hammerheads are actually critically endangered and not least concern ( 13:00 ) they get hunted for their big dorsal fin a lot and their population is decreasing worldwide

I love the orchestral version of Dshingis Khan Maskau towards the end. Awesome song and that was a cool rendition. Great video all the way through. Thanks for this my friend!

I never knew how endangered some of these sharks were, especially hammerheads and great whites. This saddens me and I hope something is done about it!

4:22 one time I was swimming in the Gulf of Mexico at Galveston, and I swam out to about 10 feet deep because I'd let myself sink and push off of the bottom for air. While I was wading some water I saw this small shark, maybe 3 or 4 feet long, leap up out of the water right next to me and do like a 1080 before coming back down into the water. It was so epic and memorable, but I wanted out of the water after that lol. I thought it was just having fun or trying to get away from me but looking it up on the Wikipedias - apparently it is a feeding strategy.

i like how one of the critically endangered shark is called the "common" angel shark

Fun fact: Helicaprion isn't actually a shark, it's an extinct shark-like eugeneodont fish, which in itself is an extinct order of cartilaginous fish. Keep *SHARK-LIKE* in mind

I do feel the need to point out that Stethacanthus technically isn't a shark. It's actually a holocephalian which is the group of fish chimaeras belong to. Still a cool looking fish though and very shark-like in appearance.

16:22. Imagine being stuck in the ocean and you dive under just to see that thing swimming at you

Respect to the scuba diver camera man for going back in time and meeting all these sharks

this video is so impressive. tons of work went into this. Thank you!

Its sad that there is so many cool extinct sharks yet people only talk about Megalodon.

Every shark in this video is WAAAYYYY bigger than real life compared to the human.

An astonishing number of shark species perished at the same time as the dinosaurs were destroyed. What a carnage.

Wow some of those extinct sharks looked like they came from another planet. They looked so cool!

There's something terrifying about these giant sharks coming on screen while Moscow plays.

"Though I walk through the valley of extinct sharks, I shall fear no evil." -Basking Shark and Whale Shark, probably

Personally I like the smaller sharks more than the larger ones, I find them very satisfying and they also have better personalities

This is also going to become a digital museum of sorts, when you look at how many of the still living sharks are endangered or near endangered.

Sharks are beautiful in my opinion even they can be dangerous. The whale shark is just a big friendly giant where the great white shark is like a grumpy old man with cool teeth. The megalodon is creepy though. The rest of sharks that do exist are pretty cool.

Respect to the cameraman who took all of the pictures of sharks

The fact that a shark can weigh more than a tank is incredible

My favourite Living Sharks Vs Cenozoic Sharks Great White Shark Vs Otodus Whale Shark Vs Megalodon Please Like it!

I don't know why but I just love how you have Moscow going on in the background near the end of the video but besides that I did not realize how large basking sharks were thank you

I find sharks interesting for the same reason I find crocodiles interesting, they have existed for millions and millions of years, and yet, they haven't changed a whole lot, which is a testament to how efficient they've been throughout their existence

It's sad that all of the cool looking sharks are gone :(

Mad respect to whoever named a shark the graceful shark

I have loved sharks all my life. And know a lot about them but this definitely taught me about multiple sharks I never even knew existed! Thank you for making this list! Must have taken a LOT of work!

I knew there were smaller sharks but I had assumed that they were the outliers, but turns out that most sharks are still big just not as monsterous as nat geo and other media tend to portray them. Some of the larger ones could definitely bite my head clean off but at least they look cool or cute. 🥰

Whale sharks are awesome! Probably the only gentle giant sharks out there.

Crazy how sharks (as a group) have survived several extinction events over a span of 300 plus years. Yet now some of them are getting squad wiped for practically no reason in the grand scheme of things

Makes me wonder...how many sharks on this list, that we believe are long gone, may still be down in the depths? How many new species are out there waiting to be uncovered? When I was in the second grade, there were around 350 species identified that still lived. Now, the list is over 720. We still have so much to learn. This is one reason why I love Sharks!

“so here’s this little freak, he’s this big. yeah, he went went extinct about 300 million years ago… welp, into the shark pile with you!” *wet slapping noises as i throw this shark on top of all of the other every single shark*

Aye! Short fin mako is in here! One of My favorite sharks

4:12 Huh, the gummy sharks I bought at the store kiosk when I was a kid were way smaller xD

I love how all the extinct ones aren’t even in English but the ones that still exist are like super chill names.

YES HELICOPRION MADE IT ON! MY ALL TIME FAVORITE SHARK

All those sharks and the diver never even flinched.

Yo this instrumental Moscow goes so fuckin hard bro got me dancing

Be grateful, we still have the Whale Shark second biggest shark that ever lived

Everyone is familiar with the Megalodon, but I didn't realize there were so many other species of gigantic extinct sharks. Good thing some of those nasty looking giant extinct predators aren't still swimming in the oceans because I already have such an unhealthy (and unrealistic) fear of a shark attack that I don't like to go past waist deep in the ocean and if those beasts were in there, the only ocean I would see is through my car window while driving past! 😆 BTW, kudos to the creator of this great video. I can only imagine how much time it took to research it and create the visuals.

This a really cool and quality vid thank you :))

Dá muita pena em saber que muitos desses animais estão extintos, enquanto outros caminham para um mesmo destino sombrio...amo tubarões ❤️❤️!! Belíssimo trabalho...💙💙 A propósito, amei a trilha sonora ..

Some of the largest extinct sharks on this video look like enlarged small sharks we have now. And this just makes them even more menacing. 😰

I like how they got the creepy choir music to an instrumental version of Moskau

You should make a size comparison of extinct creatures like the dunkleosteus or the mosasaur sometime!

I never thought that goblin sharks can exceed the size of a great white and a great hammer, thanks for giving me a nightmare scenario that will be waiting in my sleep! edit: bruh, these replies 💀💀💀

What probably shocks me most is the fact that not ONCE did "Extinct in wild" come up.. They're either alive or dead.. there's no giving or taking.. no protection sadly for these marvellous creatures 😔

12:13 no animal has existed for that long

the little diver swam away at the end 😝

I wasn’t expecting to hear an instrumental of Moskau during this.

Anyone else expected the hungry shark evo music?

I love how it went from epic space opera music, to Greek Disco.

Me: "How many shark species are there?" Nature: "Yes."

amazing how the overall body shape of sharks has not really changed over the millions of years. and sad to see that so many are endangered and we all know the causes but yet do nothing to stop it. stopping it would not be that hard either but we let greed and politics get in the way. many of the sharks of the past were so beautiful as well.

I like how it shows if they are endangered or not, great addition

really informative. Plenty of sharks I've seen for the first time.

A very thorough and interesting video, I have been interested in sharks for over 50 years so I was very impressed to see species I was unfamiliar with. Thank you for including the Snaggletooth Shark Hemipristis it is my favourite, you might consider adding the two fossil species of Hemipristis in future versions. And I like the fact you are bringing awareness to the public of how vulnerable these amazing creatures are.

This video was very well done. I work with fossils (most my work done with marine fossils) and all of the names I’ve seen were correct. Some really interesting and not well known sharks on here with the actual names, very impressive

Damn, the Cretaceous period was not kind to sharks, but they had one hell of a glow up! XD

Basking shark my fav when I saw the picture of basking shark I need to watch this :D

If the giant frill went extinct before the age of mammals I’m wondering how long the frilled shark that lives today has been on earth

My favorite is the whale shark since I've seen one up close. I remember having shivers since i didn't expect it to be big. We were lucky since we paid to see it in the ocean but cannot guarantee that you will see one.

I just loved watching the different species

The fact that the Helicoptrion bessonowi was one of the largest sharks scares me a lot

Something seems odd with the length/weights. They are all over the place, sometimes in KG, sometimes in grams (even if over a KG).

Its crazy to see how many sharks were taken out with the K-T extinction. Most people just assume the dinosaurs and other land creatures were taken out then but forget that 80% of all life died then or around then.

I felt safe when there were no more still existing sharks in the +10m category, and then the basking shark and whale shark came along...

The diver in this is braver than I am.

Wow, I never knew there was so many shark species. Thanks for your time for making this video sir.

So many cool and awesome species of shark. Nicely done.

Well I now need to memorise these sharks by heart

Moskau coming out of nowhere made me chortle. Great vid 💙

Every other shark: Normally facing left Listracanthus: 🐍

Its incredible to see so many sharks like the common great white, basking shark and tiger shark all the way to the extinct sharks that would be a menace if they were alive today, but at the same time its sad to see many of them are almost extinct

sharks are such magnificent creatures, if only we weren't so reckless causing a lot of them to be endangered

As an Asian to all the sharks who unfortunately ventured within the region of Asian waters I salute you.

A lot of the sharks towards the end of the video are 7-10m length and 1-2t in weight. Me thinks someone got tired of researching each individual shark dimensions so just changed the name 😂 but other than that cool vid! Also a 7-10m long shark only weighing 1-2t would be built like a cheese string 😅

wouldn't it be an epic april fools prank if they all came back?

Idk why I got so invested in this. I literally cheered when I saw the whale shark lol. Great work!

The sizes are pretty mis-leading. You stretched them to around their max length, but the proportions are way off making them WAY bigger than they would actually be.

So nice to see underrated fishes get a size chart. But the title should be all about Cartilaginous fish if its going to include Ghost Sharks (Holocephalians), Skates (Onchopristis and friends).
