The people who came back to the boat after swimming with the Whale shark said it was amazing, fantastic, it was the best experience of their life etc.
Certainly it's a once in a lifetime experience when you get close to a giant animal, it is something extraordinary.
And they have no teeth, so what's the harm really? Unless it swallows you whole but that's not likely to happen
@@Wolfsbane909they can't swallow you either. Their throat is just the size of a coin. Most you'd be doing is sit in their mouth which I highly doubt is happening.
I just did it a week a go in mexico an yes it’s amazing
I don,t want their fins or meat I just want them to live
@Valentin Baker do that allow me to see the other game account?
Actual biggest animal is the Megalodon the scientists are trying to bring him back the student lab and see how dangerous he is the scientist wants to kill us so they're going to try to bring it back to life and shark whales aren't the biggest animal Megalodon Megalodon shark taxi the most dangerous animals is Megalodon the Megalodon can eat anything even sharks sharks and whale sharks look like food Megalodon ABS to Megalodon the shark whale and other sharks look like food to them789761 that's how much people do he actually ate a lot of sharks before killer whale sharks are not important Megalodons are they can eat you in one bite😱😱😱😱😭😭😭 yes it might be shark it is a shark is a Megalodon bigger than the whale shark
@@emg2790 megalodon was 18 meters at maximum,the blue whale is 30 meters long at maximum
@@emg2790 also scientists are not trying to bring back megalodon
The world wouldn't be the same without them!
Came for the Whale Sharks… stayed for the Master Chief 😎
Ohh thats him talking he sound like him i thought u saw him
Whale sharks are so darn cute
All I can think of while watching this is "Wow someone really likes sim city 4 music."
Editing choice aside, very impressive animal.
Why would you ever want to kill this magnificent creature?? They're so amazing looking!!!
Outstanding production of a wonderfully fun video, especially the part about the Atlanta Aquarium. The underwater filmed segments were just unbelievable.
Lmao this looks like it was made in 2005. I love it
Love watching documentaries about marine life but during certain parts of this one, did anyone else realize that the songs they use are the same ones from the original Sim City lol
It's good to hear Steve Downes narrate. #Halo #MasterChief
I thought I was The only one who noticed it was him
Amazing creature. I want to draw a whale shark
Than longer a city bus a whale and a shark combine a whaleshark what a funny sea animal
Keeping such a majestic creature away from the natural ocean is wrong
4:35 you can hear the whale shark when it open His/ her mouth
Sad the way people actually think they have the authority to kill this beautiful sea children. 🐳❤ IS THERE SERIOUSLY ONE MEAT THAT THIS WORLD DOESN'T EAT?! it's honestly heartbreaking.
Sad we think we have the right to kidnap and jail them, also.
This is amazing 👏
That music is bloody annoying.
You suck
Rachel Parker like you
even if i know they aren't hostile i can't swim with big big animals i think it's a phobia of mine 😂
EPICCCCCCCCCCC!!!
why's the intro music so funky lol
Destiny! Whale Shark
From finding Dory
they are so peaceful and so cool
Tourism..the bane of oceans.
Business that cause overdevelopment of sensitive ecosystems are causing problems globally. Exploiting to the detrement of ecology
First song in the documentary is from sim city deluxe 🤣
Cut the music If you want to talk. Better yet just cut it out completely
Thank you for the information
Is Steve Downes the narrator??? Why does he sound like master chief??
Saw one swim next to yacht we were on and it was huge
You're telling me people travel from all over the world, and they don't even get scuba gear, just some snorkel that fills with ocean water the moment it's not perfectly perpendicular to the surface?
I now have a reason to go to Atlanta 😮
I just went there earlier today
Thats great. What an adventure and experience to remember. Keep your journeys going. Start a log book, get pictures. Sell to movie people. Good luck , seriously.
I LOVE WHALE SHARKS
I saw one of these monsters in my lake this past summer. Wild.
Whale sharks can't survive in freshwater
Maybe it got lost into a lake
He probably died :(
Yup Ive read about this
These bois are p cute
Whale Sharks 💖💖💖💖💖💖
It’s all about GREED... People just don’t know or don’t care about anything but making money.... THE WRONG WAY.
@T-BONE Poor=bad money=good
Money=bad poor=good
There was a time we hunt them but that was long long ago now we can frame so no need to kill them
Ohhh destiny... Love uh lot
It's CANON the masterchief is an expert on whale sharks.
Why
They are actually very goofy by nature
Not the biggest animal in the world just the biggest fish in the entire world, the biggest animal/mammal would be the Blue Whale
For some reason some people are scare of whale shark
Master chief?
I know that tank is big… but I still wish it was DOUBLE the length and depth.. I just HATE seeing animals in captivity. They swim entire oceans and they are in this tank :/
I know they were saved from meat markets but why couldn’t they have just released it back. Ugh, idk.. I’m glad they saved it none the less.
Yes!! I know right?
Whale sharks are kind your making us feel scared about them🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Bfg but sea version
A big fucking giant?
Men WOW!
I think it is a little outdated. Whale shark is mostly threatened by the tourists and those so-called "research" boats try to track them and sometime hit them. Shark hunting is outlaw in most of the country. They also run into fishnet and drowned.
Yeah laws don’t stop people from killing and eating them
Imagine seeing that under you while your swimming in the open sea
WO!
I have that pet in my house
whale shark are kind giants
Their fins can break ribs 😢
1:02
Whale sharks are the living:0 faces
save the wahle sharks!!!!!
wow
Why is the narrator so aggresive its as if he’s talking about a monster
These damned shark spotting tour are incredibly annoying and stressful for the animals.
It simply belongs forbidden.
And these poor animals in the "biggest" aquarium must be closed better today as tomorrow.
I love whale shark they're so pretty and cute and adorable I love them hi whale shark I love you you're so cute and adorable and I love you.
Dude Holy crap stop keeping those in captivity are you insane
I know right!? And they think that it’s good for the whale sharks
Whale Shark🦈
maybe is this is whale shark
Why humans are so tiny!
Idk
I can’t stand people who have no respect for nature and the natural environment. Penalties need to be increased dramatically for those who harm protected species.
Penalties wont matter if it is not in your jurisdiction.
@@viivcreations9161 don't rain on my parade
0:12
And this is literally the largest existing shark and it's literally gentle to humans, I'm very surprised.
Literally surprised.
It's the Largest living fish today!
As are most sharks, bull sharks are basically the single exception
Megoladon?
@@chubbyblackboi gentle to humans? i think not
I met one of these monsters in the Red Sea. I was around 16-17m down and a shadow was above me... I didn't understand, since clouds in the sky don't occur at that time of year!!! I looked up and shrieked like a little girl when I saw a fish the size of a 14 wheeler!!! My dive buddy teased me in front of all the ladies, for the entire season!!! The other team we were with used me as 'status' since we had been so close to such an event. It was one of a dozen magnificent diving experiences, I will never forget!!!
Red sea? Im near that ocean ngl
@@abooalatv1557 "ngl" as if it's shameful to be near that ocean.
FC aw p
That’s so amazing!!!
Lol the world’s biggest binge eater. My 30 ton Life!
lol
Hi Gorgeous 😍
This comment deserves a lot more likes js
Ghgu
I love the little fish riding on the whale sharks like busses 😆🥰
Look8ng for this comment actually.
I really love those little fishes riding with it. 😊
They are my Best friends
Even though the GA tank is huge... When you see the whale sharks swimming in it, it still seems so inadequate. For creatures used to roaming all over the world it feels pretty sad to see them stuck in such a small area. :(
I agree :(
Yes its sad, but you have to remember they were bought from fishermen who were going to sell them as food and fins.
@@chestervaldes7551 That's great but it just still feels worse than just bringing them back to their natural habitat.
Yes, i thought that too. I vowed never to visit again.
I am glad it exists. It is a perfect safe haven from the ocean and if there was a disease that killed every whale shark these would be safe from it until vaccines came along.
One of my favorite sea creatures, the second is a Giant manta ray.
I hope some day I can swim with a whale shark before I get old and pass away 😅
You can visit teluk saleh in sumbawa besar Indonesia, more easy to see whale sharak all the time.
You can visit teluk saleh in sumbawa besar Indonesia, more easy to see whale sharak all the time.
Certainly worth to do so. One of my fav things ive done in life. Can only recommend
@@julianjager8682 I’m excited 😆
@@RedOnCod Western Australia - Exmouth - great place to do that can highly recommend! If ur ever gonna go to australia do that for sure.
I love whale sharks. I hate people who kill sharks for their fins. Just look at that beautiful animal. It’s part of life, a quiet part of life. They don’t bother anyone. All they want to do is swim around with an I open mouth. The idiots who kill them to sell their fins to other idiots who think the fins are magic food should get together on an island far away from everyone else and beat each other up instead of killing gentle unaggressive, beautiful animals.
The japaneese made it legal to hunt them even tho they're literally endangered
The Japanese care more about culture and customs and money than nature. I care so much about nature. I smile every time I see a bird, any bird. I actually smile when I see any animal. I don’t care for bullit ants and box jellyfish, but most others are cool.
@@perrypelican9476 i know, there's a reason the japaneese are strongly disliked (aside from my previous comment)
@@isabeauh-s3100 Don't forget the Chinese who have very nearly the same culture when it comes to endangered animals and food. The pangolin for one. This is part of the reason why I have never been proud of my Chinese heritage.
@@isabeauh-s3100 bruh there's a video of my country (India) slaughtering a whale shark on TH-cam. I don't think it's a Japan problem, more of an Asia problem in general.
I really don't understand putting animals as large as whale sharks into aquariums. I don't think I ever will.
I feel like the right size of aquarium for some creatures would have to be an entire ocean.
You are dumb, it's because they're trying to preserve them and do research. And while they are at it, why not get support donations from people that come see it? Its a win, win.
It's an absolute crime and it disgusts me...generally, in aquariums like that the square footage of the parking lot is larger than the actual area the animals have to swim in... man's quest to profit from the exploitation of animals knows no bounds 😞
@@ettinakitten5047 exactly...it's a crime... If they could talk, I'm sure they would tell us they didn't want to be kept in an aquarium.
It better be a really big fish tank
I like the nature videos more than tourist or hunting ones. Live in peace beautiful whale sharks. You literally prove my beliefs in whether creation or evolution is true. So impressively magnificent!
Getting to go to Oslob in Cebu Philippines and swim with the Whale Sharks was an incredible experience. They just appear out of nowhere and sometimes slide right by you without you knowing it until it rubs you ever so slightly. They are beautiful and breathtaking. It is a chance of a lifetime to see them.
Did you go on a conservation trip?
I love whale sharks❤️
But do whale sharks love you?
Aidan Barnes ouch, that hurt.
@@aidanbarnes4290 damn bro
I love whale sharks too. fan club?
Same, vivi.
We gonna ignore the fact that Master Chief is narrating this?
I would be a whale shark out of all the sea animals
whale sharks arent mammals they are a fish
@@paulhall70 Fish are animals just that fish arent mammmal
I'm bored being a whale shark, I would be a Cute Turtle!
@@whaleshark5444 great white shark is watching you from corner...
@@m1ytcaws so?? I'm not scared of him.. I'm bigger and we are both sharks
Very interesting. Thank you, Master Chief
Never thought I’d hear him say more than one sentence
It's CANON
That is my favorite shark. Ever since I went to Georgia Aquarium. I loved the Whale Shark.
I may be terrified of whale sharks bit I feel heartbroken that there are idiots hunting them to extinction because they want to eat their meat even though other more common fish are literally the same thing
Those Idiots are Greedy
Curious about the little fish that hitch a ride on them . Was wondering if they were the offspring at first .
celestialcircledance They are Remora fish a symbiotic species that live on most sharks 🦈
Remoras and Pilot fish. The former are the little hitchhikers you're asking about. They eat the shark's leftovers and keep the water cleaner by doing so, get protection, and keep parasites off the shark. If you ever see little stripedy guys, those are the Pilots. They swim with but not ON the shark and do the same stuff.
Why the narrator sound like Master Chief?
terrible pay? you dont see him getting paid in any of the Halo games. maybe he does narration whenever he isnt saving the world
Well I guess we can say one thing about Master Chief he loves wildlife
That's because it IS him.
I didn’t know the Master Chief was a narrator in his previous life
There needs to be an international Law for fishing these beautiful things
They've been declared endangered since 2016, internationally.
Thanks for the upload and the very informative infos about the whale shark identification, we used that in Leyte, southern Philippines. Thanks Klemens
That music is from Simcity 4 😂
13:37
I was hoping I wasn’t the only one that noticed 🤣🤣🤣 I was like WAIT REALLY
Hahaha noticed that. Did they pay for the right then or just stole the music lol
I cant wait to study these beautiful creatures
Truly Beautiful.
I wonder why people would dislike this. You’re literally saying “boo” to knowledge.
Maybe they disliked because of the loud background music, I know it definitely annoyed me. But I love the information
Boo more like boo hoo
I wonder if they didn't like whale sharks being in an aquarium?
I love whale sharks so much, they make me cry. I want to see them at least once in my lifetime. In the meantime, I got the Fahlo whale shark tracking bracelet, which benefits the Georgia Aquarium!
is this voiced by the master chief from halo???
Master chief cares about whale sharks confirmed
I have swam with them before they got curious and came beside me and below me even brushed against me
Their is a meglodon encounter from ship and crew off astralia in erly 1900s as as in video states when whale shark wasent known creature i wonder if that is what the fishermen seen they were scared to go back in ocean because of the giant shark they claim to b biger then their fishing boat i wonder id it was
Wow, this content is free on TH-cam? Amazing. Thank you!
I love them so much I’d literally cuddle it bro
I don't know who kill these beautiful creatures for their fin. There should be very hard law against it.
I’ve never heard The Master Chief be so verbose! Onward 117!!
