Drone Footage of Great White Sharks, Surfers, & Dolphins Together All at Once.

- This week, I film several white shark & human encounters including a pod of dolphins that swim right between the sharks and the humans. I also meet actor Orlando Bloom and record his close up encounter with a large juvenile white shark. It's more clear to me now than ever that humans and white sharks can coexist peacefully in Southern California waters.

Orlando Bloom: OMG! It's a shark. Right here!
That Shark: OMG! It's Legolas! Right here!
The shark turned around again bc he couldn't believe that it was Orlando Bloom!
Lol
Good one !
🤣
😂
If the shark was hungry enough and was searching for food, the video might be different. It might go different if the surfer came off the board and had to swim any distance. Also, try the same at night.
Try this in South Australia, Perth, The Chatams, Sth Africa.
As someone else said 'I respect sharks. So much that I Do Not Go In The Ocean. You are right, we should be more afraid of sharks because we are just food for them!!'
To put yourself in front of a Great White hoping that it will only 'chew the fat' before moving on, is insane.
The shark hung around Orlando for so long in hopes he would pull out his phone and take a selfie with him!! Amazing footage again. I appreciate you so much!
LMAO bro. Good one
This is just the single best wildlife channel on TH-cam in my opinion. Your efforts on raising awareness that sharks are not just "Jaws" are awesome. Thank you, keep it up.
Still afraid of them. Shoreline hugger.
Hopeful the oil pipe leaking hasn't ruin that beach. Such a horrible thing to happen on yet another coastline. Interesting video, thank you. 🦈🤢🦈😰🦈
Another excellent installment! Hilarious that you now even have "guest stars" 😂😂 My opinion on Bloom has risen, so job well done by him. Greetings from Germany!
If Orlando can handle the Kraken I am sure he has no issues with that tiny creature!
I had an encounter with a shark this past summer in Florida. It was about 20 or so feet away from me and broke the surface for a second when a wave hit. I didn't panic or anything but calmly swam back to shore. Guess what no one was bitten or eaten that day. When you are at the beach you'll more than likely be in close proximity to a shark and sometimes just won't notice, and why? Because shark aren't killing machines. They are fascinating, beautiful creatures and continue to be favorite animal
You have done so much for shark education and awareness than national geographic and any other documentary. I swim in the ocean and have always felt anxious doing so, but your clips and explanation have reduced that anxiety and for that, I thank you very much. A few years back I saw a white shark while I was swimming and I panicked. If I see one now I would have more knowledge of what to do and hopefully enjoy their presence as they are majestic creatures.
i think you should go on a “trip” to Australia ….the gold coast….Perth and south Australia and fly your drone there because there seems to be so many White shark encounters with humans and document the differences between white sharks of southern california and Australias white sharks.
I doubt there is any difference. The ocassional test bite by adult whites in Australian waters is unfortunately ususually fatal. Most of the curious whites in these videos are juveniles. One thing i see in common between Australian shark attacks is they are usually always in overcast weather , with opaque water and early morning or late in the day. Perfect conditions for an adult shark to be unable to tell what hes encountered without a test bite. Like South Africa for the amount of hours so many surfers spend in the water of our coastlines, attacks are incredibly rare.
@@Fractalite well in South Australia where I live, we very rarely encounter juvenile whites. They seem to be very much like those seen through to Western Australia - all adults, where the East coast waters generally have more juveniles. The behaviour of whites in different geographical locations has been recorded many times in the past as showing differences due to many factors differentiating these locales, so I believe that the footage would represent diverse behaviour if someone was to do similar work as the Malibu Artist over here.
@@jakerubino3233 I'll take a guess there are a good deal less adults than these juveniles . I know for example in western Australia there's just over 300 adults in total.
@@annabizaro-doo-dah indeed! Studies have been showing for quite a few years now that the NSW coastline has the most well known nurseries for Whites in Australia and that they generally migrate south and west as they get older. I actually lived in Cottesloe for a few years in my teens so have some familiarity with that great state too. A quite well known fatality occurred in the shallows directly in front of the surf club while I was living there and regularly body boarded there most mornings.
Jaimen Hudson's channel has some good drone footage of that area. He's from Esperance. I want to visit that area someday just because of his videos.
Your footage never ceases to amaze me!
Living in Malubu you probably have more celebrity encounters.
What a rush that had to be for Orlando.
This is just beautiful, as always
Wonderful, a premiere! Your work is amazing. G'day from Australia 🦘
I think it makes a huge difference whether people encounter juvenile or adults. How cool that you ran into Orlando Bloom. Makes sense that they couldn’t see the sharks. Their camouflage is perfect. It still makes me nervous to seem them so close to paddle boards etc.
It's interesting that the juveniles are cautiously curious, with none of the so called "test bites" that have been attributed to adult shark. As always, great drone work and thanks
for sharing it with us.
Malibu, your footage is amazing! Thank you for sharing it with us. Wow! I am very pleased to see that Mr. Bloom did not panic. How cool is that!
beautiful, just absolutely breath taking, I was once in a very small boat, & we had a great white circle our boat for about 1/2 an hour, it is both scary & exhilarating at the same time!!! Cheer's from Australia!!
I have been following you since day one! And i truly admire what you are doing and the way you are doing it. The best way possible. Keep up the great work. Awareness is growing thanks to you! Thank you!
How amazing that Orlando was at the same beach and got to interact with this guy's channel because of it! To this day, I bet Orlando thinks about this memory! Sharks are our friends, they just want to be loved like any other creature on this beautiful planet!
yeaah noo! :P They may not be our enemy, but its for sure not our friend lol! Atleast not mine!
@@Heavymetal16 still, they deserve respect in the end, in the same way any predator deserves respect
Wow! Another amazing video showing how amazing nature can be. I give them surfers a lot of credit........I would have been scared out of my skin. Thank you for helping us understand more about these amazing creatures!! 😄❤️🐬
I thought the title was referring to an algae Bloom in Orlando Florida, lol
so did I at first ! Haha
This is so freaking gorgeous!!! More dolphins content please!!
Beautiful! Thank you for your work.
I love the dolphins too the way they swim and play truly beautiful 😍
Question. So if you were swimming there would they react any different?
So beautiful! Thank you for what you do!💞👏💞
The first footage with the dolphins, the sharks and the humans is fabulous. Absolutely fabulous. Thank you.
It's really fascinating and so revealing to see marine wildlife from a birds eye view
I love how this dude did not use Orlando's name as a clickbait. Great content, great white shark
Has Orlando Bloom in the video, doesn't clickbait.
You're amazing. Keep it up!
I’m so exited!
Excellent work! I love that someone is able to show so many everyday interactions with no incidents. Keep doing what you do. Outstanding job.
This is such a relaxing therapy. Loved the fact everyone stayed calm and chilled.
Watching all your clips from the beginning at the other side of the world in Amsterdam the Netherlands. Keep on the great work. Interested in the night episodes!
I'm glad you're the one doing these videos and not shark week type hype people
You’ve done it again my friend, beautiful footage of these majestic animals 🙏👍
Thank you as always beautiful footage xx
I am an avid shark lover (Great Whites being my favorite) and I have learned more watching your videos that I have from the MANY documentaries I’ve seen over the years. These videos show just how beautiful and majestic White Sharks are! Thank you for what you do! Keep the videos coming please!
Another awesome video. It's great to see the local news has covered your work. I forward them to all with the intent of educating people which will lead to protecting our oceans and the creatures that inhabit them.
Another inspirational instalment. Thanks as always for your hard work and dedication, and also for the educational way in which you present your incredible footage. Legend mate 🙂🙏💙🤙
Love your videos
Can’t wait! This will be good!
Wonderful soothing + educational narration. Thank you!
Your narration is the best part of your videos....you give positive information of our aquatic friends. Well done....seriously....way to make a difference.
Thank you for educating myself and so many people. You are making a huge difference to the world.
Another incredible video! I loved the scene of the sharks, dolphin and surfers all together, each respecting the others space, such an amazing shot.
Amazing visibility in the surfers' section. The dolphin though quickly gets some distance from the bigger shark.
Great White Shark: Orlando, I'm yr biggest fan!!
Orlando: HAHA! You sure are!!
So happy that it was Orlando Bloom...this video got global exposure!! U are doing so much shark conservation, raising awareness & giving ppl a chance to see that they mean no harm. If respect their space & let them be we can co exist peacefully. Thank you!!!!
Someday really needed to make people aware of this. You’re doing good work! Keep it up 👍🏽
Great job as always. Nice to see young Mr. Bloom! Can't wait until the next update.
I'm actually never entering the ocean again. Even if attacks are rare, these "frequent" encounters where you dont know they're there are terrifying.
Thank you for more amazing footage and insights. I find your vids wonderful and breath taking, and am so pleased to see sharks being portrayed in a respectful and realistic light on youtube. Just awesome.
Your videos are always fascinating and love the beautiful background music too!
Another great video Carlos. Many thanks
congrats to 100k!!!! well deserved, your footage is awesome!!!
Thank you for yet another amazing upload ♥️
It was so beautiful. I enjoyed watching it!! Thank you!!
Your videos nd the commentary literally bring ky eyes to tears how beautiful
Love your videos. They bring me so much peace.
This was awesome! Very insightful, thank you 👍🏼
This was awesome! Thank you for this.
I absolutely love your stuff! Thank you!
Beautiful work and attitude hats off to you much love and respect.
Wonderful! Thank you 🌿
This footage has made me realise sharks are so peaceful! i actively go to the beach and try swim with them great channel
Beautiful footage. Thank you !!
As a lifelong southern california resident who has loved and respected sharks since i was a kid, thank you for sharing this incredible footage. I hope people can start to see theyre like any other living creature, and even the young ones are still figuring things out, just like us.
Incredible! You have a wonderful, calm, well-modulated voice, as well. I appreciate how you narrate.
So good I had to watch it twice.
These videos just get better and better.
It would be really interesting to document an actual shark attack by drone and then compare that to all the regular harmless encounters to see how the shark behaves differently prior to attacking.
(Not that I hope that there will be any more shark bites, but that if there are, they're documented & studied.)
That will NEVER happen.
@@TheAutisticEducator obviously not a fatal one...
It would be so incredibly unlikely to be able to catch an attack on drone footage, but not impossible I guess.
thank you for doing this!
Beautiful video! Thank You! 👏
I love your videos. Clearly we still have a lot to learn about shark behavior. I'm curious what triggers a shark to become aggressive towards a human?
Here in Hawaii, Tiger sharks are the species that are feared here. They tend to be stealthy and take people by surprise. In the mid-90's a 12 yr old boy boogie boarding was taken off of Waikiki Beach. And in the early 90's, a grown man who was also boogie boarding off of Sunset Beach. Neither were ever found. Only their boards with bites in them.
Congratulations to 100k I love your videos.
Another amazing and educational video. Thank you!!
Wow, bruh, that is an amazing video and I appreciate your passion for marine life!
Fabulous video... Thank you for sharing this with us.
Nice, those video's you make are really helping people to understand how it works in the ocean. Thanks alot
@TheMalibuArtist Thank you for your footage! I shared it on my shark page, it gets good traffic so hopefully it will help spread awareness. Keep up your amazing work, Rob would be proud!!!
Congrats on the 100k brother! Keep up the awesome work!
Thank you so much for doing what you are doing...
Spectacular video as usual. The dolphins were amazing. That must have been such a beautiful sight to see in person..
Amazing video Carlos...I love this channel.
Beautiful! Thanks for your great work
Just love your videos so much! This will change how experts on sharks see shark behavior to I am sure!
This content never gets old. I would love to see this of my home Australia.
I mentioned this above. Do you think that less adult sharks mean it would be more difficult to do something like this?
@@annabizaro-doo-dah It seems the law of probability is not as favourable for WA as we see in California. Esp with the presence of lynch mobs. It would be nice to see the drone footage from around Aus though.
Thank you for the lovely video..
Always love your videos! Do scientists or nature show producers ever reach out to you asking to use your footage?
As one who spent a fair amount of my youth around Redondo and other beaches in the LA area, body surfing, swimming, fishing and scuba diving, I knew there were sharks about (they've had airplanes a lot longer than drones - I have a couple hundred hours worth of flying in the area), the only shark I've ever encountered in the water was a 4' nurse shark in about 30' of water - we each turned and went in different directions - fairly quickly! While humans and sharks (and dolphins, although the only actual encounters we ever had while diving were with seals, who can be quite playful.... after they eat whatever you happened to catch that day!) can seemingly co-exist most of time, it's those exceptions, however rare they might be, that define human-shark encounters. Yes, I know they explore with their teeth, it's the only way they can explore. But when you happen to be the target of that exploration, it's gonna hurt, assuming it doesn't kill you. And there's virtually no way to predict where or why it happens. It's all up to the shark and how curious it happens to be that day. I trusted to luck and the odds when I was younger and a lot more stupid than I am today. While I've never been targeted by a shark (that I know of), I certainly don't want to be, either, and I'm not to likely to trust that any sharks swimming around the SoCal beaches are not be hungry or particularly curious on any given day I might want to go swimming. So I moved to Missouri, where the shark population is near zero and what sharks we do have are usually found hanging out at bars and they're damn sure not interested in some old fart like me! And I like it that way! I do not hate sharks, have never kilked one and wouldn't, even if the opportunity presented itself (I do still fish now and then), but then I'm damn sure going to be jumping in the water and offering up my fat ass up as bait, either! As much as I love the ocean, it's their house and I'm going to do my best to avoid the lot of then, thanks anyway! Well, except for the whale sharks in the Philippines, they are lots of fun to see & swim with!
Cheers,
jc
how has this channel not got a million subs already, i dont get it. great work my friend!
Congratulations to 100 k subscribers!
That was incredible footage I really appreciate the information
Thank you 🙏💪🦈
I know sharks are not constantly in hunting-and-killing mode as this amazing video shows, but it's just a bit scary to think there's something that BIG right under you and you wont see it until it wants to be seen, and just slowly circling and keeping an eye on everything in the water that interests them. Makes you appreciate and respect how well evolved they are for the stealthy hunting they've done for hundreds of millions of years. Amazing creatures, really.
Brilliant video as always 🦈🦈👍👍
Excellent! I enjoy your clips very much.
Carlos what an amazing encounter those people had with all those Dolphins 🐬 swimming near by now that’s nature at it’s best Mammals probably curious about other Mammals whichever perspective you look at it both from Dolphins 🐬 and Humans amazing footage even the Baby White Shark 🦈 and the Dolphins that approached it now that’s what amazes me it probably happens everyday but we never get to experience or even see such encounters. Thanks too you what you do is enlighten people to what Great Whites and Rays, Dolphins, Seals 🦭 all the Marine wildlife around Southern California habitat live together in a beautiful ecosystem that’s thriving and people like you and the Marine Biologists and Marine enthusiasts are doing and educating the world on conservation and I applaud you for that keep up the great work and I wish you all the best and look forward to seeing more of your amazing videos. 👍🏾
The first scene with all 3 is breathe taking. I have always loved sharks, but I'm more in love now. Still don't want to go swimming with them however. 😆
Another great video!
LOVE LOVE LOVE your channel
Just Beautiful🌊
Beautiful. I really enjoy watching your videos. I have swam (not purposely) in close proximity of a shark. I wasn't exactly scared, just being vigilant about where she was, and avoided panic or making any stupid moves. Great Whites have been my favorite for as long as I can remember, and I'm an old(er) man now. Peace.
