Sad day for anyone that cares about these animals. As of this year the Mexican government banned all 7 companies from visiting this island siting no science just fears that... maybe... their behavior would change with time. However, the scientists will still use the same methods for collecting data they are supposedly concerned about. Unfortunately, with far few people and exponentially fewer dollars and hours. During our 3 days we documented numerous regular specimens and new ones that we turned over to researchers. In the years since this one video has reached tens of thousands of individuals and been one of the single greatest experiences of my life. People protect animals they can experience and develop and connection with. If you can't... they may as well be ghosts.
Appreciate it, I put a lot of effort into trying to make it better than average. Definitely go, half a group was scared nervous and the other half was super excited. By the end everybody was absolutely amazed.
Ryan Snodgrass I am coming to Mexico and it has been a dream of mine since a was a little kid to go cage diving. How would I get in touch with someone to go? I really love Great Whites I try to find all the information about them I can find to learn as much as I can. I would really love to do this you don't understand how much these sharks mean to me. They are just such beautiful amazing creatures. That should always be respected and admired.
Being a freshwater angler I've always been blown away by saltwater fish and great whites are on the top of the list I've watched so many videos but the camera is always shaky and jerky the way you guys put this together with the music and the great camera work is excellent thank you for sharing this life experience with us very well put together!
Beautiful footage of these magnificent animals! Bet you all had a blast of a good time! I certainly wish I could go shark cage diving, before my cancer takes me out. Wow, such beauty all around you all! How in the world can people say there's no supreme being that created such a beautiful world with so many awesome wildlife and landscape and oceans, with perfection down to every nook and cranny!
Thanks to you all for the encouragement. I don't normally discuss my spiritual preference online because of so many people having oppositional beliefs, but Yes, I do in fact call the creator of all things our Almighty God, however I also believe that God is all beliefs or spiritual preferences, we just have different names for our Almighty Lord. Religion to me is just man made formalities, and I believe it doesn't matter how you worship. I believe it is good for the soul to learn from other various different or foreign beliefs and customs and I believe all denominations put together brings togetherness within our soul and Creator as a complete wholeness. 😁❤️
Ryan Snodgrass yeah, at late evening/ night and early in the morning before sunset. Was kind of funny to hear them but very sad at the same moment. But that’s nature, I gues..
Three people got sea sick for much of the trip, most didn't. What I would say is a few things... They all were glad they went anyway. Those symptoms almost always go away instantly when getting into the water. Bring drugs and herbal remedies like lavender oil just in case.
What drone were you using? Did the birds attack it? I was there with my Mavic Pro and the birds kept attacking it because they are used to hunting small black birds...the Mavic looked too similar. I only ended up getting a couple of short, usable shots. Nice Video. Cheers.
Casey Klaus it was actually Martin's dropping even and let me use the footage. It was a version of a DJI Phantom which is white... so I guess we got lucky!
Generally speaking there's no time. That same crew does fishing trips but your crossing over into Mexico as well as a protected marine park so guessing it's not an option.
Most of this video was with a GoPro however I had to color correct almost all of it. If you were to add a red filter I think you would happier at the shallow depths. For the still shots I use a Sony a65 SLT which is no longer in production but there are plenty like it. More importantly in the video, keep your movements painfully slow and steady if possible.
just to add in... polarpro makes underwater filters for gopro's and they have a light orange "snorkel" filter that helped. You are only under the water about 8 feet or so and it's very clear. I shot with 3 gopro's a 4hero black a 3 and 3plus myself on Ryan's trip.
The bars on ours were pretty tight and even the small sharks were way to big. If you are referring to those breaking through it's saltwater so only certain materials are even allowed to be used and certified. The problem in those instances is where the crew have an error or do not follow rules around dragging bait directly at the cages for close encounters.

Outstanding vid! The beauty & majesty of these sharks are amazing. And, the weather and calm seas made this trip for the divers absolutely perfect. ❤
great video, No. 1 on my Bucket List
Appreciate it, I put a lot of effort into trying to make it better than average.
Definitely go, half a group was scared nervous and the other half was super excited. By the end everybody was absolutely amazed.
This is on my bucket list. I can’t wait to make it happen!
Make it happen, it's one of the greatest experiences I can imagine anyone having. ❤️
It's on my bucket like at to stay as far away as possible from these creatures
If anyone is ever looking for a top notch dive company we were all very impressed with the level of care for us and the animals.
Ryan Snodgrass was Phil Kirby on that boat???
I am going Oct 30 - nov 4

I needed this vacation,thank you!!
Ha! I've watched it again a number of times for that exact reason 😂
Oh this is so exciting! Can't wait to make it happen.
I love this video
Really appreciate that, I put alot of time into it! Doesn't hurt that it was an amazing experience.
Best shark diving video by far on TH-cam!
Eric Laney wow thanks for the compliment!

His name is Jesus, the great I Am, creator of all things.
@@The-GreenHornet Jesus is sun worship. Do you know that?
May The Almighty take care of you!!!!
I hope you made it my friend

nice video, especially the part with the sea lions at the shore. have been to guadalupe island this october, was a great trip!
Did you get to hear the juveniles crying at night when the adults were off hunting? Haunting and amazing all at the same time!
Ryan Snodgrass yeah, at late evening/ night and early in the morning before sunset. Was kind of funny to hear them but very sad at the same moment. But that’s nature, I gues..
OK
Beautiful video!! I'm jealous!!
Christina jones don't be jealous... GO!
3 sizes of sharks extra large, huge, and oh my god. 😄
So cool. Really awesome video. Inspirational
Definitely on my buckets list. My only concern is getting sea sick and being down and out the entire trip! Lol

Anybody ever do any fishing on these cage diving trips?
Generally speaking there's no time. That same crew does fishing trips but your crossing over into Mexico as well as a protected marine park so guessing it's not an option.
Thank u for that was great
But why ramsey swims around and close to them without any protections ??!! Why ?? someone explains please
To demonstrate they are not mindless killing monsters that attack anything in the water.
@@Slide-Loc thanks for replying
Great video Ryan : ) am going for my BD next Oct 27th. Which camera do you recommend / Go pro w/filter? Thanks and saludos from Mexico City! Cheers

Which island specifically of Guadalupe do you shark dive in?
That's the name of the island, there is only one.
@@Slide-Loc i believe that there is small islands around guadalupe that belongs to the island
@@y7952 the main island.
Was Phil Kirby on the boat and dove? Because If he was that would be my grandfather
Kyler Kirby it doesn't ring a bell the only older couple was from England.
Are those sharks paid actors or what?
😂
Hi
Lindo d ++++++++++ 👏👏👏👏

Agreed, kids got in the way and California policies these past few years unfortunately didn't help either.
How much did this trip cost you? Thinking about doing this one day but financials are the only thing holding me back..thanks!
Tomas Gonzales they have the pricing on their site, there are discounts for different things like groups and military. www.sharkdiver.com
They need to design better cages. The sharks have came through those larger slits. That's unacceptable.
The bars on ours were pretty tight and even the small sharks were way to big.
If you are referring to those breaking through it's saltwater so only certain materials are even allowed to be used and certified.

Skip to 9 mins
3 min. intro, then narration. Way too long, bored by the time sharks are shown
It's a personal video so too bad.
