People need to stop associating Tiger sharks as friendly puppies who like to be pet. But you got the Emma diver posting vids as well as that free diver girl, although she does warn against doing what she does, people see the videos and think it's ok.
This is why these sharks don't fear humans anymore. I really wish that some divers would stop feeding these animals, and don't do anything to attract them
Sharks have never feared people, they've been eating them for years with no regrets. The issue is that with "Instagamable" moments folks get taken up by the mystique of posting themselves into a digital legacy with little regard to their immediate surroundings. American Bison, the Grand Canyon and the occasional fortunate shark are just nature's way of saying Wake Up Stupid!
This is just so reckless on so many levels 🤦🏼♀️ These instructors should lose their diving certificates/licences, as they are putting inexperienced divers at great risk here! Pure idiocy imho.
The viewing gallery seemed way to close to the action here. The tigers weren't small and judging from the buoyancy control and breathing of the cameraman the divers weren't all experienced. A bit more distance and maybe the peripheral vision of those watching would have picked up sharks moving behind them. If you are static sharks will approach from behind you, often making a circuit to do so just beyond the limits of visibility. Those watching had an intense and no doubt memorable experience. However, unless things change it seems inevitable that someone will be injured. When dealing with a 500kg+ shark if you think you are in control you are deluding yourself, you aren't, its false confidence. Its almost a rule, the unpredictable will eventually occur. In this case it will sadly be all to predictable.
i got to agree, first thing i thought was breathing poor when the video started, i also agree that this is an accident waiting to happen, the guides seem very confident but it didnt stop one sneaking in behind them. i personally wouldnt be signing up for this, its a numbers game and im not lucky enough

@@saveourseas7 Cant you see they do !! every year a woman or man is eaten. Even if it's their leg or arm So quit lying Numb Nutz sharks eat humans !! NUMB NUTZ
I have been a Diver since 1974, and have seen quite a few sharks in my time, but what the folks here did not see, is that Tiger open it's 5 gallon bucket size plus, of a mouth and exhibit those incredible serrated and hooked teeth that cut through sea turtle shells. If that animal charged any person in this video, in a true feeding moment, the fatality would be immediate and it certainly would make an impression on those divers, especially the cameraman whose breathing rate indicates he is terrified to begin with, but the imminent feeding frenzy of multiple 12-15 foot tigers and some S.O.B. Bull sharks that are cruising in and out would finish off this group readily. Totally Stupid and Dangerous. This is going to turn into a group's worst nightmare at some point.
Gotta agree at some point in the future one these dives is gonna go severely wrong and I’m afraid one or possibly more of these divers is gonna wind up as dinner
Facts! A few years back at my house I found a deceased loggerhead sea turtle that was intact that a large shark bite on its back shell that was outlined in blood where the sharks teeth has penetrated. I'm no shark expert but due to size of the bite I knew that it wasn't a mako or bull shark. It was confirmed to be a Tiger shark. The short of a long ass story, I'm good on swimming with Tiger sharks because an accidental nibble will easily severe a major artery
Sorry, but as an avid life long diver i,m just not in favor of shark dives like this. I know that they are a money maker but what are we teaching sharks. I have seen sharks while diving many time in the natural environment. Don’t like this “created” or made up environment.
This is just plain stupid...there are 5 tiger sharks and several comparatively less dangerous species baited into being there - come on man! think about the next guy/gal who dives that site and runs into these critters expecting the dinner bell.
Call me crazy but if I were with a group of that size and everyone facing different directions, with views sometimes obscured by bubbles, I would ask that we all be on our knees, in an outward facing circle so all angles are covered. Just me though ig 🤷♀️
Maybe the reason sharks attack people is because people dive down into their territory and poke a prod and slap them..i'd bite the shit out of anyone doin that to me in my home.
No. They are baiting the area, and sharks have grown accustomed to being hand fed. This is just learned behavior. They associate humans with food, and go for a nibble because that's what humans have taught them. Human = Food.
It's notable how the tigers were more interested in the divers than in the bait boxes. They were clearly conditioned to associate divers with food. DON'T FEED THE SHARKS.
What in the entirety of f#ckness did I just watch? That many divers creating so much bubbles- sharks coming straight at them through the bubbles- this is hunting behavior. These people are crazy 😳
That was not hunting behaviour. The sharks wanted the food in the box, but they weren’t interested in the people from a food perspective. They even made a point of keeping their mouth closed/fins horizontal when right near the divers.
That's exactly what I was thinking. If those big tigers seriously wanted any of those divers, there's nothing any of them could have done about it. This whole setup looks like a shark bite waiting to happen.
First impression is whoever was filming this is obviously a novice diver, upside down, then turned over dragging themselves on every rock and piece of reef shaking that camera until I thought I was going to puke. Second, I can't believe the guy filming and his buddy were struggling along and after five minutes arrive to the site where all the others are with a load of already fired up sharks. This must be the most unorganized shark dive to have ever happened.The fat guy in the blue wet suit is lucky to have lived through this display of idiocy. His skinny buddy in the black suit wasn't any better. I am no expert in any of this but I have seen plenty of these dives in videos like this and on Shark Week shows. This was clearly irresponsible behavior and this circus should be forced to shut down immediately.
If this can be done with tiger sharks, then it can be certainly done with Nile and saltwater crocodiles…Y’all should give it a try and live stream record it👍🏿👍🏿
at the same time i am seeing (i knew already though.) that leading a group of total BEGINNERS (including an elder man, i saw.) in the middle of a tiger pit is anything but smart (not to say it is completely INSANE and IRRESPONSIBLE.)... these instructors are either stupid, or crazy.
The word I would use is "greedy" - some people will take anyone's money. It's obvious they have no respect for the reef or care much about the safety of the people in this group. Sad.
Don't think you'll be able to gently push away like that if one of the sharks decide to come out of the blue with it's bucket wide mouth wide open coming in hot at 50 mph right towards your face 👀
At first the tiger shark appears to be interested in the bubbles, this is why most divers who swim with sharks use rebreather, then the animal starts to exhibit hunting behaviors. Marine biologist believe that the bubbles escaping to the surface sounds similarly to that of a struggling wounded animal.
Over grown reefy( reef shark), they're just like wild dogs, stand your ground, you run, you get bitten, try not to show fear, they have the sixth sense, they know what they're doing. Alot of the time they're curious, feed mostly at night, (scavengers)....I been a commercial diver for 25 years in Torres Straits,( lobster or painted crayfish)...that's on hookah gear, heaps of bubbles, from 10-40m and have encountered all sharks in the tropics, murky to clear waters, doesn't matter..... respect and take care👍
Most divers don’t have access to or can’t afford a rebreather, a ridiculous comment with absolutely no merit, the Shark is jacked because they baited the water, heavily, and they have a dozen undertrained divers just sitting on the bottom next to a crate stuffed with dead fish, it’s just stupid...I’ve been diving, free diving and surfing for over 30yrs, rebreathers are for deep or extended dives not recreational shark dives, a decent scuba set up can be had for $1,000 to $2,000, that’s every thing included, a rebreather just for is $10,000 just for the unit another $5,000 at least in accessories. ( not to mention the training class is $2,000 ) it’s just not feasible a day shark dive at a resort or dive charter
@@bigeyetuna6228 i was thinking of doing a shark dive but after watching this....it really isn’t safe....certainly putting life and limb on the line.....half the time they are physically fighting the sharks off....not my idea of fun!

Who ever lead this dive should be stripped of the diving certification. Stupid, reckless endangerment of the other divers and disturbing the sharks and other marine life. One bite and it would have been a mess for that group.
But that blonde lady who dives with Tigers and Great Whites tells us they are safe. She says “just touch their noses and push down “ or something like that
I went to school with the parents of the girl who was killed in a predatory attack by 3 tiger sharks in the Bahamas, and I can say it had to be terrifying for Leslie to have that sort of slow, drawn out attack. Tiger sharks are slow, purposeful, and stubborn killers unlike a great white where the attack will come from below and probably incapacitate you, kill you, or at least render you unconscious while it eats you. Like Doctor Grant said about Raptors in Jurassic Park - "you are alive when they start to eat you, so show some respect huh?"
Despite everything I've read, I 110% believe that it wasn't three sharks that attacked her. I believe it was just one that attacked multiple times. If you study shark research and conservation, it just doesn't happen. Sharks do not attack humans in packs.
@@heatherninneman558 bullshit. Depending on the species it most certainly an happen. I've had a pack attack of whalers, there is video footage of two Great Whites attacking a surfer. It happens with hammerheads, bulls and several other species. I'm a shark diver and have been for 40 years.. You are a clueless landbound TH-cam commenter with zero shark knowledge.
@@heatherninneman558 Well they don't coordinate like orcas but if more than one is present in the nearby area they won't pass up the opportunity to feast on the same prey
This is like trying to do something with horses, dogs, and chickens milling about. They get so curious and “helpful” we spend more time pushing them out of the way than getting done what we set out to do. So, has this reef suffered an environmental issue? I’m not seeing the typical plants, corals, and anemones seen on most reefs. The surfaces are nearly bare.
It's frustrating to watch so many people grabbing at and clinging onto the formations. This destroys reefs quickly & is painful to watch. Dive outfits worth their salt instruct new divers not to do it, teaching buoyancy control instead, in order to protect the marine environment. This dive was unprofessional, dangerous, and destructive on many levels 😩.
@@beekneed as a certified open water advanced diver, I agree 1000%... extremely hard to watch such inexperienced divers just TRASHING the environment like this!
Have they not watched that one video of that poor young man in Egypt last year that was swimming with his girlfriend? Him screaming for his dad haunts me. 😫
What if one or very possibly 2-3 sharks who weigh a ton+ decide to attack, you won’t push something like that away would you? If it bite at the head and you don’t lose your head there’s a chance the tube with oxygen can suffer damage and your done. So many things can go wrong 😑
These people are what you call thrill seekers, just like skydiving, mountain climbing, etc. A huge part of this is the thrill, yet danger of the “sport”. They know how dangerous it is. I say, GO FOR IT!!
Now what happens when these same sharks encounter a swimmer, a surfer or another diver who doesn't have a box of food?? What happens to them?? This is just like the crazy lady who was feeding wild coyotes raw meat smh....
That's exactly what I was thinking. Remember the Grizzly Man who moved to Alaska to live with bears and the little old lady who lived alone and fed "her Friends" the bears from her front porch? They were lonely and thought the bears loved them and they had a special connection to them. Well, only the humans felt that connection. The bears ATE both of those people. These sharks are not domesticated or pets. You are meat and they eat meat. Period.
I used to assume that too. But If that were correct then Tiger sharks would be killing people all over the Bahamas and Florida, but they aren't. 99..9 % of the time sharks just don't try to eat people..Way more people are killed by pet dogs every year than by Sharks. And when a shark (or dog ) does attack a human its usually not for food but because of territorial aggression..we don't know enough about what provokes aggression in Shark.s
Please stop destroying the sea floor and learn to control your buoyancy. You wrecking the place, and look behind you every once in a while as that is usually where the shark is
For sure. I was taught to hover, don’t touch or stand on reef, certainly don’t interact with the wildlife. Serious buoyancy and breathing control here. Just watching them swim with arms flailing all around - bloody amateurs!
@@michaelwilwand8036 Inefficient buoyancy is the quickest road to decompression sickness too. Tend to fill that BCD full of air and shoot up. Before you can even do anything it’s too late... you fucked up
What in the bloody hell is going on here. This is a MESS! you got divers flapping about all the over the place. Flipping & flopping over these tiger sharks! some of these beauties are huge. These people are completely dull! How an accident didn’t happen here I’ll never know. Just well done to the sharks for exhibiting great behaviour cause these messy ass people did not! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Wow I'm usually the only one commenting that risking your life for shark porn is a fool's errand. Glad to see others here noting that you don't need to molest wildlife (and risk your life and others' lives) to enjoy nature.
and barely tickling the tail fin of a shark (at 8:13) will do nothing but annoying him (in a bad way for your own survival.). on top of that with a pack of duskies later on (which are more than 'easy-frenzy'.)... cherry on the top : all that little world in fairly murky waters (sharks can hardly discriminate their preys from non-preys.)... and you get : a band of assOs who paid money for committing suicide in joy and laughers.... congratulations, folks ! (ironic.)
If that shark actually tried it could of tore them to pieces in seconds and no amount of pushing would help. Those sharks can attack at over 35 mph and easily turn back from a push and take your arm if it wanted.
These divers are destroying the reef. Crabbing the rocks and laying all over it. Any legit diving company would not alllow and teach you to avoid doing this. If they would’ve got bit they would’ve deserved it and I would help the authorities wouldn’t kill the shark responsible.
right at the beginning, I already lost it: scraping over the reef and the ground. Then later someone is let by their arm. Not to speak of the evident animal abuse and idiotic self endangering. I am not diver, but I have seen countless videos on sharks and diving - and this is by far the most reckless, dumbest where I have ever seen.
I had an encounter with a very large tiger with fishing just off the beach in NC. While bottom jigging for Gray trout I hooked one , started bringing it up and suddenly my drag screamed when apparently a much larger predator took the trout but just as sudden my light line went limp. As I reeled in weightless line a huge tiger somehow able to get the momentum in 30 feet of water leaped out completely, hung a fiction of a second , then dropped back into the ocean with a loud splash and waves large enough to rock my 18 CC boat. I can recognize some sharks like GW s and this shark with blunt snout and dead eyes was definitely a 13 - 14 foot Tiger with rolls of fat like inner tubes around its middle section. Less than a mile from the beach. Has anyone ever heard of Tigers leaping completely out of the water or seen anything like this.
ok i was thinking of going on a shark dive in cozumel but if this is how it is....i might not go!.....wow that was intense and definetely putting life and limb on the line. if your arm or leg got bit...or bit off you could easily bleed to death
@Me Llamo Diego "Gettin it Done" It's not as dangerous as everyone makes it out to be. Sharks are curious just like any other animal, and will only attack of their instincts kick in (if you start having frantic movements in their presence), or in the extremely rare chance they mistake you for food. I bet these guys were comfortable as can be the whole dive. Don't take it from me though, what I've stated is easily accessible information.
@@SouloDoloMusic That's easy to say when you're typing away on your keyboard but unless you're a professional who's done this many times & you have zero experience reading up on it doesn't mean anything....
@@ogrebattle22763 You must be bored but I'll entertain you. I said it's "easily accessible information." You don't have to be a professional diver to know what a shark's behavior is like. You could be a fisherman... like I am.

So, has this reef suffered an environmental issue? I’m not seeing the typical plants, corals, and anemones seen on most reefs. The surfaces are nearly bare.
It's frustrating to watch so many people grabbing at and clinging onto the formations. This destroys reefs quickly & is painful to watch. Dive outfits worth their salt instruct new divers not to do it, teaching buoyancy control instead, in order to protect the marine environment. This dive was unprofessional, dangerous, and destructive on many levels 😩.
@@beekneed as a certified open water advanced diver, I agree 1000%... extremely hard to watch such inexperienced divers just TRASHING the environment like this!
The amount of abuse that shark suffered... the patience of a saint indeed.
Have they not watched that one video of that poor young man in Egypt last year that was swimming with his girlfriend? Him screaming for his dad haunts me. 😫
Guy almost lost his foot at 8:37 . I wouldn't have shed a tear for him. These people put the meaning in the word "reckless".
Damn this is a very dangerous dive group they like to live on the edge with these sharks
What if one or very possibly 2-3 sharks who weigh a ton+ decide to attack, you won’t push something like that away would you? If it bite at the head and you don’t lose your head there’s a chance the tube with oxygen can suffer damage and your done. So many things can go wrong 😑
Thats why Careful
The sharks are inviting all the divers to lunch🆘🤕‼️
What a freakin mess!
It is ultra stupid to dive with tiger sharks that have been chummed to a dive site. It is asking for death!!!
These people are what you call thrill seekers, just like skydiving, mountain climbing, etc. A huge part of this is the thrill, yet danger of the “sport”. They know how dangerous it is. I say, GO FOR IT!!
Tony the Tiger Shark says " Divers taste grrrrrrreat !"
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO SHOW YOU WHEN A SHARK EATS ONE OF THEM
Like pinching the nose of a T. Rex.
Waaaaah, the free content I receive that people risk their life for isn’t perfect. I demand perfection for the nothing I contribute! Waaaah
I contribute ad revenue , and so do you, and anyone else who traded their time to watch this.
This isn't even about that.
Hahhaha brilliant comment! Spot on.
Now what happens when these same sharks encounter a swimmer, a surfer or another diver who doesn't have a box of food?? What happens to them?? This is just like the crazy lady who was feeding wild coyotes raw meat smh....
That's exactly what I was thinking. Remember the Grizzly Man who moved to Alaska to live with bears and the little old lady who lived alone and fed "her Friends" the bears from her front porch? They were lonely and thought the bears loved them and they had a special connection to them. Well, only the humans felt that connection. The bears ATE both of those people. These sharks are not domesticated or pets. You are meat and they eat meat. Period.
I used to assume that too. But If that were correct then Tiger sharks would be killing people all over the Bahamas and Florida, but they aren't. 99..9 % of the time sharks just don't try to eat people..Way more people are killed by pet dogs every year than by Sharks. And when a shark (or dog ) does attack a human its usually not for food but because of territorial aggression..we don't know enough about what provokes aggression in Shark.s
Is all fun and games until someone gets bitten In half ☠️
its a good thing these animals are driven by instinct rather than brains.....one day, they will work it out however, and someone will be hurt bad.....
Sharks are actually pretty intelligent and cognitive.
Tiger Sharks are aggressive and opportunistic and will eat anything that interests them.
yep like car plates... facts
Don't feed the bears, but feeding sharks is okay? What happens when someone without food snorkels or dives there?
I've never seen a scuba diver with Parkinson's disease, let alone one that made underwater movies.
Why did this even pop up on my suggested? Way to give me mad anxiety at 6am. No thank you. I’d NEVER swim with Tigers. They’re terrifying.
THESE SEA MONKEYS ARE JUST ASKING FOR TROUBLE
Please stop destroying the sea floor and learn to control your buoyancy. You wrecking the place, and look behind you every once in a while as that is usually where the shark is
For sure. I was taught to hover, don’t touch or stand on reef, certainly don’t interact with the wildlife. Serious buoyancy and breathing control here. Just watching them swim with arms flailing all around - bloody amateurs!
@@michaelwilwand8036 Inefficient buoyancy is the quickest road to decompression sickness too. Tend to fill that BCD full of air and shoot up. Before you can even do anything it’s too late... you fucked up
Some places it doesn’t matter so much. My local dive site encourages using the bottom because of strong currents.
Dude sounds like he’s having a heart attack
Few breeds of shark you especially don't want to be in the water with, tiger and white!
Too much chaos.
... you're crazier than 10 people
What in the bloody hell is going on here. This is a MESS! you got divers flapping about all the over the place. Flipping & flopping over these tiger sharks!
some of these beauties are huge. These people are completely dull!
How an accident didn’t happen here I’ll never know. Just well done to the sharks for exhibiting great behaviour cause these messy ass people did not! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Now that's a big ass Tigre squalo!!!!!!
That was funny as hell. Tiger shark was like "Hello. Nom nom nom. You got any noms for me...?"
lol
Is this a tourist dive?that shark looks like a regular visitor getting impatient for the box to open, what an amazing beautiful animal ☺
🤣🤣🤣
And inexperienced ones too, look at all those bright fins and Tiger sharks love contrast. Who the hell is running this show?
“TIGER, thirdeen footer, you know how you know that, chief? You can tell by lookin from the dorsal to the tail.”
Wow I'm usually the only one commenting that risking your life for shark porn is a fool's errand. Glad to see others here noting that you don't need to molest wildlife (and risk your life and others' lives) to enjoy nature.
When did the Russian roulette team take up diving?
Is it just me or do these guys look like they have no idea what they're doing?
There's ALWAYS one Tiger Shark that can't pay attention to the program, and refuses to stay on the OTHER side of the rock wall with the box of bait.
Very healthy looking Sharks 🦈
Новичка сразу видно😅 Удивительно что в такие места их спокойно берут!
I hope to one day see a video of these same people in a Final Affliction episode.
Sheeesh one big cluster fck mess😲
Couldn't think of anything worse!!!
Why do ppl dive with no protection no speargun no trident nothing just dinner with a tank on it 😂😂😂😩😩😩
It’s only a matter of time before one of these divers get proper chomped
and barely tickling the tail fin of a shark (at 8:13) will do nothing but annoying him (in a bad way for your own survival.).
on top of that with a pack of duskies later on (which are more than 'easy-frenzy'.)...
cherry on the top : all that little world in fairly murky waters (sharks can hardly discriminate their preys from non-preys.)...
and you get : a band of assOs who paid money for committing suicide in joy and laughers....
congratulations, folks ! (ironic.)
I'm now worried fish are trapped in the fridge looking thing under water from when the guy opened the door
Lol I'm not the only one🤗
There's no way the person filming should be diving. That breathing alone makes me wanna drown them!
The diver who filmed it was sure sucking a lot of air.
If that shark actually tried it could of tore them to pieces in seconds and no amount of pushing would help. Those sharks can attack at over 35 mph and easily turn back from a push and take your arm if it wanted.
These divers are destroying the reef. Crabbing the rocks and laying all over it. Any legit diving company would not alllow and teach you to avoid doing this. If they would’ve got bit they would’ve deserved it and I would help the authorities wouldn’t kill the shark responsible.
right at the beginning, I already lost it: scraping over the reef and the ground. Then later someone is let by their arm. Not to speak of the evident animal abuse and idiotic self endangering. I am not diver, but I have seen countless videos on sharks and diving - and this is by far the most reckless, dumbest where I have ever seen.
The huge tiger shark with the messed up dorsal fin seems to enjoy the men rubbing him on the face.
I had an encounter with a very large tiger with fishing just off the beach in NC. While bottom jigging for Gray trout I hooked one , started bringing it up and suddenly my drag screamed when apparently a much larger predator took the trout but just as sudden my light line went limp. As I reeled in weightless line a huge tiger somehow able to get the momentum in 30 feet of water leaped out completely, hung a fiction of a second , then dropped back into the ocean with a loud splash and waves large enough to rock my 18 CC boat. I can recognize some sharks like GW s and this shark with blunt snout and dead eyes was definitely a 13 - 14 foot Tiger with rolls of fat like inner tubes around its middle section.
Less than a mile from the beach. Has anyone ever heard of Tigers leaping completely out of the water or seen anything like this.
NC ?where?
ok i was thinking of going on a shark dive in cozumel but if this is how it is....i might not go!.....wow that was intense and definetely putting life and limb on the line. if your arm or leg got bit...or bit off you could easily bleed to death
This is in Fiji
@Me Llamo Diego "Gettin it Done" It's not as dangerous as everyone makes it out to be. Sharks are curious just like any other animal, and will only attack of their instincts kick in (if you start having frantic movements in their presence), or in the extremely rare chance they mistake you for food. I bet these guys were comfortable as can be the whole dive. Don't take it from me though, what I've stated is easily accessible information.
@@SouloDoloMusic That's easy to say when you're typing away on your keyboard but unless you're a professional who's done this many times & you have zero experience reading up on it doesn't mean anything....
@@ogrebattle22763 You must be bored but I'll entertain you. I said it's "easily accessible information." You don't have to be a professional diver to know what a shark's behavior is like. You could be a fisherman... like I am.
@@SouloDoloMusic I wasn't saying that to be a wise ass... so why don't you relax ok...
Imagine your life being so comfortable that you can pay someone money to voluntarily join the food chain. Truly remarkable.
Got to ask. I have seen a few of these videos and there are a lot of fish swimming there with the sharks why dont they snap one or two up?
This is crazy, asking for it, idiocy. Take the lid off the chum box, stay in the middle of the churn of it all and pet the 10'+ dozens that came to check it out. Those poor tourists!
yeah its a real s*** show
Too much excitement is going on its Confusing the fish and makin the sharks think there cud be a feeding frenzy about to happen... it should of stayed calm and serene. This almost turned into a Disaster
If conditions were diff, a bit darker on his own ect.. you'd see how that squalo would play games with him before biting him in half!!! That tigre's hungry for 1 of those dudes!! & Is just waiting on the right conditions to take 1 of 2 of them!!!
If anybody loses a limb, which will happen sooner or later..they were asking for it
No way in hell, look at the size of the sharks
I feel like I've stumbled upon some sort of Suicide Club annual meeting.
I would never do this. This is just reckless it's like rolling around a group of lions feeding freezing covered in gazelles blood...but in the water.
Is it a midlife crisis thing?
Damn this gave me an anxiety attack, what a s**t show-
The shark didn't chum the water. you rang the dinner bell
