A. It was a Mako. B. It stuck around because you got in the way of it eating dinner.

Hello my name is Andrew I work for Shark Week on discovery, i'd love to talk to you about licensing your footage for an upcoming show, is there an email address I can reach you at to discuss further? Thanks so much!

Looks more like a GW than Mako to me

People have no idea how many Mako's cruise close to shore at Catalina. A couple days ago I hooked and fought an approx. 8 foot 500 lb mako for 1-1/2 hours. Then released it. This was just past the jet ski rental near Descanso Beach, and only a couple hundred feet from shore. I took video so everyone would believe how close they come in when feeding. Great video thanks for sharing.

"If I fell in right here you'd eat me." From the way the camera is bobbing about I'm surprised you haven't.

actually if the sea lion can see the shark then the sea lion is perfectly safe. Its the shark at depth that they cant see that can get them. That sea lion has not a worry in the world as long as that is the only shark in the water.

Dude... That was beautiful.... Even got a hook and wire off a shark and out of the ocean.... Poor sea lion.... I was hoping it would jump on the boat...giving the man a chance to cut it off..

Ah,I can almost smell diesel.

It's juvenile white, colour not right for either kinds of Mako's, and Mako's take seals whenever they can, when they are adults. Fastest Shark's in the ocean's.

What a let down. Could've been a killer video had there been a 3 year old blind ,and deaf kid with bad vertigo shooting it. Lol.

That's an absolute huge mako!!

I like that you got great view it’s beautiful to see them do what is natural to them , seal was using boat , but also if mako they fastest shark it would be a race to island . Feel sorry for seal but that’s nature . But l do hope that when you said it was a mako and not white shark that you could catch it 😕. Would rather see the video of it like you did hate seeing sharks hunted .😞

You are the idiot. He needs your boat to run around. In open water, the Mako's power would prevail. Also, quit narrating like a third grader. Saying nothing would improve your viewers experience

if ur smart u will uinderstand the sea lion was looking for land he thought he had it with the boat and ur saying get out of here mf he thought it was land and now hes dead good job

amazing, the shark used his receiver to dislodge that hook. I see this behavior in aquarium fish on a smaller scale

def a mako, that nose is sharp

There's literally better videos taken by 10 year olds By 4:46 he's gone delirious. And 6:28 lol like wtf are you saying man.

Couldnt see any shark. Just the tip of fin Come on

I'm going to bitch about something g else. If the man cares so much for the seal why wasn't he whacking the shark to help said seal?

Never ceases to amaze me how well camouflaged sharks naturally are in the ocean. How'd a 18 foot beast sneak up on you, that's how! Never catch me out there swimming

That maco deserves another 10-20 years with those skills,let the hooked go better than I could

Even tho it's bad filming you gotta love how excited the guy is hahs

It's not a dumb sea lion. He wants u to help him!! Throw him a bone!! Extend your oar and let him get on your boat!! He'll escape the shark that way!!

Annoying t***. Keep the shark and seal in shot next time.

This guy couldn't study his self he couldn't still the camera

Nice filming

This dude is an idiot.!! Take away his license. As if the bumbass has one

Such a shame it was all towards the sun, was really hard to even see that there was a shark at 1st

That's definitely a great white.

2 diff sea animals in the middle of ocean, one has a hook and one has gill net around its neck, go humans gooo we suck 🤦‍♂️

Wow dude your more excited than all of us put together. Too bad u didn't fall off the boat. Lol

I saw nothing of WTF he's cooing and crowing about.

GREAT VIDEO YOU SHOULD BUY A GO-PRO ON A STICK IF YOUR NEAR THAT STUFF A LOT❗️

It looks to me that in the open oceans the sea lion is using the boat as kinda a block to confuse the shark to avoid a strike. The sea lion is smart because their is no cover than the boat.

Awful photography . nauseating . at least come around and put the sun behind you to cancel the glare off the water. Damn !!!

Your camera skills need some work. You're telling everyone to look at the sharks 🦈. But, you're not filming the sharks half the time. Kind of annoying.

looks like a white to me just from the thickness of the tail

Dumm human popparazzi giving the sea lion hope he can climb on board and giving the shark something to hide behind. Crap vid

Great White

Whatever kinda shark it is, he ruined your fishing chances for the day. But on the other hand, it allowed you a once in a blue moon opportunity to record some great video of a shark on the hunt. Many don't get to see this type of action. Good for you my friend 👍👍

Next time dont zoom in way to close. We cant see anything.

greatwhite no mako..

Matatan Ribirin Hs.[̲̅$̲̅(̲̅ ͡ಠ_ಠ)̲̅$̲̅]

Hes circling the boat because. All the boats feed and chum them up for cage diving now the see boats and what for fries like the sea bass at the restrants on ocean side where ever one throw sea bass french fries

Mako shark delivers captain Hook a powerful ecological message about the fishing waste plague*. Imagine a stray hook in your dog's eye and you'll be seeing the compulsive sadistic drive to rip fish from the water with a hook through the face as a no deal for reproduction. Natural selection should have higher standards.

I’m big on letting nature be nature BUT I would’ve been trying to help that sea lion pup

Great video i think

He is circling the boat coz he thinks you are gonna start fishing lol. He isn't stupid lol

That's a Great White brother. Makos are way skinnier and have a pointed nose!
