That is exactly how it feels too! There is no sound no talking, just the water noise and your own heart pounding and your breaths quickening. It's pretty much the funnest and the scariest thing that most people will never do
@@jarrodnikolsky5397 literally what it’s like where I live in Qld hahah, have to run my mask along the sea floor just to find my way back 😂 can’t even see my buddy near my fins
@O.G Autistler What you need to do, before visiting or staying away from QLD, is laying off the goddamn shift button, son. Why you out here caps locking everything like today is the last day you'll ever be able to capitalise another fkn letter
The entire video made my heart pound. Just imagining being in that situation, looking off into the murky water knowing ANYthing could suddenly appear out of nowhere. GOD, why do people do that? 💀 🦈 This is the most replies to a comment (51) I’ve ever gotten. And here I thought my thoughtful political comments were the interesting ones, lol.
Me too Janice! I found out that it's actually a phobia called thalassophobia- check it out- I definitely have it lol! It's weird, I'm fine in shallow, clear water when I'm snorkeling, but I have a sensor that starts alerting me when the water gets murky-
@@peteyfly1 Interesting! Yeah, a friend once told me it was an innate, primal fear and it had a name - I think he said the fear of deep holes, though. Guess that’s included, whether or not it’s under water? It is innate, I think. When my son was a toddler and I put color tabs in to color the water, it creeped him out, and I knew why. Edit: Put color tabs into his bath water I should have said. 🙄
I had no idea those shark shields work at that distance. Every time I've seen an interaction with the SS and a shark they usually get a lot closer before they feel the SS
@@treystephens6166 Due to their vast interactions with the SS you only have to greet approaching sharks with the common heil hitler and they leave you be
It's not the shark shield. It's eyeballs. Sharks don't attack if you spot them as they prefer the low risk hit and run ambush. The moment the diver saw it the shark turned.
That's why he supposed to always face towards them. Isn't the ss only effective to like two meters? Like u said, when dude turned around, the shark turned around.
Yep, then it immediately circles around and gets behind you. So don't freak that you don't know where it is, because it will always be coming back behind you, the only question is, how big that circle will be.
While Shark Shield can deter a shark from attacking, it won't do so every time. so your hoping its going to work weather it does or not is just by chance.
Doesn't seem our visual range underwater can ever match that of a shark and knowing that a shark can clearly see you without you being able to see it makes these situations scary.
They see poorly aswell i think an example of good vision in the ocean is the mantis shrimp … but they are never found in merky water …. Anything living in merky water like that relies on other senses
@@redneckr.c8760 The situation is still unchanged. It seems we can't detect them around the same time as they can detect us. It's no wonder how they just materialize out of the blur coming to check us out. They've already know you are there and they came in for a closer look. And us humans have no way to match or counter this while we're in their environment.
Sharks are relatively lacking in the vision category, which explains so many "mistaken identity" attacks. However their *other* senses are what makes them such able predators. You ain't hiding from a shark, that's for sure. It may not see you but it'll feel/smell that you're there.
@@lo-rez right, and it's not fair that we don't have some sense we can activate once we go underwater to make up for a lack of vision or a sense of any kind in the dangers of the ocean.
Have seen this many times with divers with no shield. Sharks are sneaky bastards that mostly ambush unsuspecting prey for a hit and run. They hate taking chances so if you spot them they turn and find easier prey.
I'd honestly just paint eyes on all sides of my head as sharks don't like to be spotted before they attack, much like other ambush predators like the tiger.
@@siriansight Fishermen in the Sundarbans in India wear masks on the back of their heads to ward off tiger attacks. I am a genius, thanx for noticing 😜
I’d like to know more of what we just saw ? I see lots of comments saying it wasn’t the shield . Problem with video is that we see what we want sometimes
That actually happened to my dad and his diving buddy in the 70s, abalone diving around Santa Cruz ca, went down, got an ab, turned up to ascend, saw the outline of a shark swimming overhead. He said he shot up and got into his diveboard and called it a day!
I heard the shark shield attract the sharks, and can repel them when they get close - also heard that can not stop them. I think I prefer not to use one.
I am so glad I didn't get my dive cert. It's so incredibly scary down there. I could never relax. I'd just think, "Why?! Who told me this was a good idea?"
These are everywhere here in summer and come in extremely close to shore they not much interested in humans just hanging around stealing my bait just at the back of the surf, they get quite big as well. Once they steal your bait you have to move on or they will happily take every bait you cast and don’t seem to mind having a mouth full of hooks (the hooks fall out after a week or so anyway)
kelp forests. a lot of them around here in california. or there used to be at least.. I remember hearing something about them getting destroyed by a spike in sea urchins.
I want to hear the sharks side of things. Isn’t this shield about privilege and racism? Isn’t the human a colonizer? I bet the shark has grown up in a neighborhood with no phone, no electric, and no social services. So yea , sure he’s aggressive, wouldn’t you be?
such a dangerous situation lol your fking scanning non stop its crazy!! its like your on a motorcycle there is no chill you gotta keep scanning or else something gets you on the blind side or if your not paying attention.
I like to disguise myself as a seal and hide in the kelp too just for fun
This is one of the most awesomely sarcastic comments I've come across 🤣
It gets the heart racing for sure.
Lol
Hahahaha
Fuckn great response brother fuckn hilarious 😂
That is exactly how it feels too! There is no sound no talking, just the water noise and your own heart pounding and your breaths quickening. It's pretty much the funnest and the scariest thing that most people will never do
It makes you feel alive for sure!
Great breath hold and staying calm
Really spooky being underwater while it's raining
technically we're all under water when it's raining
@@Kinbote00 NOT with Sharks (that Swim), Thank God !! 😆
Wait wtf it seems to me you can only see about 15 ft to 30ft in front of you in every direction. That seems scary as heck dude.
You should try coastal diving some parts of North Queensland, 15ft vis would be a dream
I wish I had 15 ft vis every time I went for a dive (coff harbour)

There’s one just like this where you’re diving with sharks. You can’t tell a difference. It’s currently on steam in development

Yea I can’t wrap my head around how people do the whole murky water thing like this.

It's not. It turned because it got spotted.
The S S from Germany ?
@@gullintanni or it turned because the shark felt it before.

what if there's two sharks coming at you from opposite sides
@indiapale You simply don't know...
Why is everything that’s so beautiful so terrifying
Im not convinced man. You flinched, then she shark flinched. It looked at leadt 15ft away too.
Not 💯 the shark shield had anything to do with that. Looks like it saw you and got spooked
Yeah, imagine the shark going online on AquaTube after this and posting the video "My Dangerous Encounter and Sighting of a Human (with a dagger!!)!!"
I could hear the exact moment he shit a brick and floated to the surface.
lmao 1:03
While Shark Shield can deter a shark from attacking, it won't do so every time. so your hoping its going to work weather it does or not is just by chance.
That shark turned and ran from YOU the minute it saw you through the murk. I've seen this lots of times IRL. He was just minding his bus6

Is is that dangerous there?
@@db-ur6td very dangerous. Known for white sharks being there.
Imagine how scary that shit is just you seeing a shark and it just dissapearing and appearing in the mists of the water
@Daniel Droste, was this filmed in Cape Town south africa
wanst close enough for sharkshield, probably turned around because he saw you
I agree, no way close enough.
@@ozne_2358 Probably been around the whole time of the dive, and he just only saw him that once!
I thought you could hear it switch on as soon as he pointed it at the shark
I think it was the shield that pushed him off, otherwise he would have come closer.
Have seen this many times with divers with no shield. Sharks are sneaky bastards that mostly ambush unsuspecting prey for a hit and run. They hate taking chances so if you spot them they turn and find easier prey.
The startled shark left to go read the YT comments after you uploaded this
I've been playing too much Subnautica. Legit thought this was gameplay footage for a second.
Diving in False Bay... ARE YOU NUTS?!?!
What shark shield are you using ?
What’s the crackling sounds?
would love a honest review for the shark shield.
I'd honestly just paint eyes on all sides of my head as sharks don't like to be spotted before they attack, much like other ambush predators like the tiger.
I think it works at deterring a curious shark. Not sure if it woks for sharks in full attack mode already..
@@chaos616rev yea all depends a Bull in full feed could usually give two shits about one. Some sharks tho aren’t as bad and tough.
@@gullintanni u sir are a genius
Like tigers have on their ears (the white, fake eye, spots)
@@siriansight Fishermen in the Sundarbans in India wear masks on the back of their heads to ward off tiger attacks. I am a genius, thanx for noticing 😜
the whole situation looks dubious
Do you activated only when you see a shark or is it always on and does it scare away other fish?
Thr shark shield is meant to be on while ever in the water. It does not affect other fish - only sharks feel the pulses it makes.
Whoa guys check out those amazing graphics !
This felt like COD but with harpoons and sharks instead… probably.
This right here is why I will never dive in the ocean.
Isn't it technically impossible for the shield to work at such a distance
Giving me subnautica vibes
kelp forest!
haa- love subnautica and subnautica zero!!
that fucking game gave me so many hear attacks I'll probably need a pacemaker by 26
I’d like to know more of what we just saw ? I see lots of comments saying it wasn’t the shield . Problem with video is that we see what we want sometimes
Oh yes that tensions building up...
Imagine the shark swimming above him
That actually happened to my dad and his diving buddy in the 70s, abalone diving around Santa Cruz ca, went down, got an ab, turned up to ascend, saw the outline of a shark swimming overhead. He said he shot up and got into his diveboard and called it a day!
are those... kelp trees?

You may one day live up to your name.
They have been confirmed to attract them. However they do successfully repel them aswell
Just like.. You can hear a loud scream from far away, but when you get close to it, fuck listening to a really loud scream.
LOL
It appears that spearfishing attracts them anyway, but I'm no expert.
I am so glad I didn't get my dive cert. It's so incredibly scary down there. I could never relax. I'd just think, "Why?! Who told me this was a good idea?"
Get your dive cert, Thinker.😤
Lots of places have better vis than this. Go do it in Indo, 20m+ vis, no big sharks, relaxing as anything
Man is playing subnautica LOL do u remenber that green biome its litary therer
Was anyone else getting anxiety as the man kept on turning around haha
That shark is gigantic, i would have shit my pants
this looks like the place in harry potter goblet of fire
The scarest part is resurfacing and not knowing where it is. Why do this to yourself?
this wasn't a honest review on a shark shield ,this shark movement is very comment .
It’s not the shield that scared it off but you. The shark was surprised to see you too. So congrats on spenidng your dough on a useless device

He's there now he's not ;)
Diving in mercy water with sharks that come up on you that fast? No thanks.
What shark
Before using a shark shield i would strap it to a bleeding fish and see what happens will prob be worthless imo
Lol that literally trains the shark to ignore it for food
Could have nothing to do with shark shield. An aggressive pose, head on as such, may do the same.
i thought this is videogame clip
is this even real? that shark's movements look way too twitchy.
Subnautica irl?????
not as many sharks as there used to be.....
folks will post just about anything now a days
That wasnt the shark shield u spotted him and he saw that
Are there f*cking trees growing in the bottom of the ocean??
kelp forests. a lot of them around here in california. or there used to be at least.. I remember hearing something about them getting destroyed by a spike in sea urchins.
Yes, it’s also raining
Yes

This shark went to an ivy league and has a Swiss passport. Trust me, he's fine. Just in the wrong place at the wrong time! #overprivilegedshark
LOL
shut up dude
Subnautica creepvine
such a dangerous situation lol your fking scanning non stop its crazy!! its like your on a motorcycle there is no chill you gotta keep scanning or else something gets you on the blind side or if your not paying attention.
I had one bite my fin was only 2/3m vis bronze just as hungry as GWhite
It’s only a small bronze try it with a hungry white
Nope
Sea trout it was .. jeezo
shark appears at :56
Bronze whalers act like that anyway. It knew you were there somewhere came in and got a fright.
Disguise yourself as bait?
hahaha you scared of a little bronzie mate
love you 🥰🥰🥰
And here I thought a Bronze Whaler was a dark beer
I thought a bronze whaler was a fat chic with too much skin-tone changer on 🤣🤣🤣
