^Why do they show a picture of a sand tiger when talking about tiger sharks? Pointless nitpicking aside, this is the kind of video that is meant to shock more than to inform. The narrator's choice of words, his selection of anecdotes and his voicing, it's infotainment for the sake of shock value, clicks and ad revenue. He must be a huge fan of Discovery Channel.

This video I posted was just a small clip because of the topic as a whole. But I definitely agree that the person who tells this lacks knowledge of the clip..he probably reads from a script and he himself has no idea.

One of the coolest, weirdest sharks in the waters
I would absolutely hate to meet any of them though while swimming around in their own stew pot. |

Looks like something out of a horror movie.

ok but Mr Dick was a sperm or "pot" whale, not a Humpback. They are known to be a bit more aggressive. And whale hunters had tried to kill him several times, so his action seems appropriate.. the story of the whaler Essex being sunk by a whale is true.
Seriously, the most docile big-sized animal can accidentally kill a human, it is really any human's own responsibility to get in harms way, if he/she wants to watch a whale herd at touch distance.
