- In this video, we discuss the tragic incident that occurred on January 5, 2023, in Tobari Bay, Mexico. A 53-year-old man named Manuel Lopez was decapitated by a 19-foot-long great white shark while diving for mollusks. This was the first fatal shark attack of the year, and it has raised concerns about the safety of local fishermen who depend on the sea for their livelihood.
We share details of the attack, including eyewitness accounts of the shark impressively ripping off Lopez's head and biting both shoulders. We also discuss the advice from local biologists, who recommend that divers not wear black wetsuits, which could be mistaken for seals, and to paint white stripes on their suits to deter sharks.
The video also highlights the challenges faced by local fishermen who rely on the sea for their income. The presence of sharks has meant that many have been staying onshore, and the government offers a stipend to supplement their income, but it is often not enough when there is no income from the sea.
We discuss the possible reasons for the shark attack, including the turbulence and noise caused by Lopez while harvesting mollusks that may have drawn the shark to him. We also note that experts have pointed out that this type of attack, biting around the head and shoulders, is extremely rare.
Finally, we share the response from fishing organizations who have called on the government to purchase devices that could deter sharks, such as shark shields or devices that emit electrical impulses. It remains to be seen if any action will be taken to protect local fishermen in the future.
The incident is a tragic reminder of the dangers faced by those who make their living from the sea, and it is a call to action for governments and experts to find ways to mitigate the risks of shark attacks.

Sharks have the most sophisticated sensory array we know of. There are no "mistaken identity" attacks. There is simply opportunity and curiosity. They know we're not seals, but they also know we're seal-like. The only reason we aren't actively hunted every day is because we're unfamiliar and thus deemed not worth the risk. On rare occassions, that judgement changes.
This is just straight up wrong. They have poor vision and murky water makes it even worse.
@@Novehx Who mentioned sight? The level of your ignorance is only matched by your enthusiasm for it.
@@Novehx You are mistaken. The sharks loves murky waters. And the sharks hunts at night, too.
Same thing happened to a guy in Fort Bragg, CA, almost 20 years ago. Randy Fry was his name. He was abalone diving, and a shark bit his head off. The crazy part.. they recovered his body the day of the attack, but several days later his head was found by a beachcomber. It had washed up on shore. I have kayak fished and dove for abalone many times in those waters.. never saw a shark, but can't help but wonder if they have seen me
yeah they saw you
They saw you every time.
They saw you but scared of you hahaha
The chance you take isn't it? Not I,, not I....😔
Well, that's a risk you take going into sharks food bowl. If you don't want to be eaten, stay the hell out of the ocean!
play with fire and you get burned!
Marine biologists have also said not to wear pink wetsuits as the sharks may mistake the diver for cotton candy.
They had us in the first half ngl
😂
😂😂😂😂
Funny 😄 and cute 🥰 😅😂😂😂😂 I guess no pink 😂
How would they know what cotton candy looks or taste
Those electrical impulse shark deterrrants actually attract sharks.
so do cages
You live by the sea you can die by the sea. Guys this is their home. They are only doing what comes naturally and cannot be held accountable for that. Thats not fair.
No one said the shark was accountable he didn’t get arrested.
The only fact you need to remember. Sharks attack anything depending on how hungry they are. If you're in more than 3 or 4 feet of water, you could become lunch.
This was a terrible attack !!! Absolutely horrifying
And it's not rare !!! Sharks have consumed humans for years.
It’ll stop the slightly curious shark from an investigatory nibble, and do nothing to a hangry shark!
This report was head and shoulders above the rest…. 👀
Why don't human animals just stay out of shark territory instead of trying to deter them? Why does EVERYTHING on the planet have to make way for us? 💔 The greed and lack of respect of human animals disgusts me.
WHY don't manufacturers make wetsuits in HIGH FLOURESCENT COLORS, like yellow, light green, and orange? 🤷🏿🤦🏿🤦🏿🤦🏿
Haha shark will still eat them..people are so dumb saying black wetsuit make sharks think it’s a seal..sharks like to hunt anything and the way they like to try staff or taste things is to bite..!
@seansmith9435 I 100% FULLY AGREE WITH YOU... When a meat-eating predator is hungry and hunting for a meal, EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE is on the MENU.
Do the fluorescent colors of many fish stop other fish from eating them? 😂
@@toscadonna Probably not... unless that species is a well-known poisonous/dangerous species based on their fluorescent colors. 😏
A shark shield is not going to deter a shark that is moving at speed and goes for a bite on the head. A head bite is NOT rare in the deeper waters, the shark is going for any bite of whatever is in the territory that made it angry, and this happens to seals as well as humans that are diving with this exact consequence.
It's a bit nuts to think you'd find an edge over an apex predator on their home turf. Imagine a shark coming on land with some kind of defense against humans
Probably biting the heads off of divers because their heads are pointing downwards as they swim towards the bottom of the ocean. The sharks bite your legs when you’re above them.
@@toscadonna I disagree. One diver recounted him and his mate were just about to start getting back on the boat when he felt an object go past him rapidly, and when he looked over at his friend, his head was gone. If you watch other videos where a great white approached a spear fisherman who was on the bottom, it went for his head. Sharks aren't dumb, and they see very well. They know what they are going after.
"Impressively ripped off his head" !! What a way to describe a mans death, quite insensitive.
Quite factual, though.
@@Ricardo__Milos Maybe so, but I think I would have used a word like Horiffcly, shockingly etc, and not one that glorifies the act of a man loosing his head.
@@arakkaramoon586
Apparently you are part of the snowflake generation.
Can't handle the actual facts of what actually happened?
You'd rather have everything watered-down and given a generic description? SMH.
Ok, watching this guy with a huge fish is one of the reasons these Sharks are coming so close to shore..
I did the Scuba thing in Mexico back 2006 - I Checked that off my bucket list!
Yes they have. Rodney Fox, twice was attacked at the head area, and dragged hundreds of feet before being released. It means GET OUT.
It’s amazing that all the knowledge we have this day and age people are still shocked at shark attacks
Gaslighting to keep tourism up
It's that age-old feeling of "I'll be careful, it won't happen to me!"
@@mjleger4555chances of it happening is literally nothing though
THIS IS TRAGIC BUT WEN U ARE IN THE SHARKS DOMAIN TRAGEDY HAPPENS U TAKE A DANGEROUS CHANCE RIP DUDE😊
facts
5m shark. holy cow, that is big.
thanks for the conversion
Just last night I watched the video of the young guy in the Red sea that got eaten. The shark went right in and took a bite out of the guys neck near his face after he called to his father for the last time. He totally did it on purpose. I guess that type of bite isn't so rare anymore.
dolphins and whales attacks are on the rise as well. it's almost like they are trying to tell us something.
Where did you see it that close?
We must respect the sharks home, we are in their home!
Maybe you should invite the shark to your home to show some hospitality. Poor fella
I heard you want to wear a bright orange with Christmas lights...the shark will think u are a dangerous Christmas. Tree! MISTAKEN IDENTITY MY A**!!!
I don't get it , if it's so dangerous in the mentioned waters while these fishermen don't work at least with harpoons or other effective defend weapons or at least as a pair: One watches with a harpoon or similar weapon his partners diving work.... you can minimize your risk !
Again. Woops. Their realm, not ours. At your own risk you do what you do. RIP Manuel
Heeead and shoulders, not kneees and toes, knees and toes!
At least it was quick, rip.
I know! A suit of plated armor, like the knights used to wear into battle!
Some "shark whisperer" types wear a kind of chain mail but thats not going to cut it if people want to get serious about safety. So a suit of armor, with the helmet AND sword AND shield is my suggestion.
Or- and i know there was a spoof comedy video that played w a similar idea- a coyote suit, like they have for dogs(my bestie's little dog has a bright pink one, with a wee matching cap) which is like a coat and neck gaiter and headpiece with long (usually plastic) spikes sticking out so a coyote can't grab on. (My friend's dog wore it once then stood and refused to walk. Idk if she was uncomfortable or embarrassed, she doesn't like looking silly or being laughed at.) They are not cheap, but less than a suit of armor i should think. You might have to raid a castle- or a museum- for the armor.
Don't you wish you could just talk some sense into ur dog sometimes and be like THIS IS GOING TO SAVE UR LIFE, YOU FOOL!!? I try to tell my dog that every time my dog refuses to vo outside and pee in the grass instead of my floor 🤬🤬🤬 no sense of self preservation with these fur balls or else they'd know better than to go in the house 😤😤😤😤
Make your own,glue gun,nails,pet store coats! .Engineer marvel🤔
Was it painful for him? I’ve been decapitated twice and I confirm it was quite painful. Mark my head
😆 definitely hurt
How about devices that can deter humans?
Experts Have advised divers not to wear wetsuits that make them look like giant hotdogs ,
Particularly with sauce and mustard.
The Shark could of just been hungry 🤔
The shark has excellent eyesight and knew what it was doing. Overfishing leaves sharks hungry.
Only first of the year? Come on boys, let's go for the record!
They should make a traffic sign wetsuit in red, yellow, and green. 😂
Where was the $790 NonShark anklet???
Nn capisco Ke non mettono la Traduzione in italiano!!!!
Great whites usually rip off one leg at a time ...then the torso...then the head....i believe this shark was dyslexic
Great whites are more of an interesting case of misunderstanding in my mind. They have gotten the reputation for being the killers, but this isn't quite the case. Great white sharks may attack the most people of any shark species, but they're NOT responsible for the most fatal attacks. Sharks are primitive creatures and can't really determine if something is edible or something they want to eat until they take a bite out of it. In many attacks, the shark mistakes our swimming and coloration as a seal which is their ideal prey. Often once they take a bit out of someone whether it's a limb or another part, they usually realize that we are not seals and leave. Of course, there are exceptions to the rule. But globally, sharks kill about 10 people every year while we kill millions of sharks a year.
Hey lets not lose our heads guys
¡Eso es una locura! Cuida tu trasero si te metes al agua
Yeah it would suck to get your butt bitten off .
Watch your cabeza
GAurantee it wasnt a black dude
I'm pretty sure they haven't eaten any extra crispy with any regularity in a long, long while.
Well.. they don't swim lol
We ain't lost nothin' down there!
Wow this guy is wearing a whole bunch of weights. Some already on his waist and then more on a backpack 😲
It's nothing to get excited about
@@billywatts4689 Why would I get excited over this ? I'm saying this cause this guy must have used too much weights. I've only worn a max of 4 weight blocks (10 pounds)
@@quynhhuong625 well you are clearly excited don't try to deny it, it's ok. What thickness was your wetsuit and what size are you?
@@billywatts4689 Lol. Why do you want to know my wetsuit size ? Geez perv lol
thanks, but when are you finally going to use mathematical standards for measurement, instead of body parts..
1:24 *WHITE Shark attack reenactment needs some work* 🤔🤣🤣
Guess they couldn’t afford the expensive White Shark actor & had to settle💀
🤣🤣🤣 🫣🤐
not any more. read revelations in the bible. sharks are permitted to eat humans
What's wrong with an animal killing and eating a merciless human that kills and eat animals?
Another vid with nothing to offer
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed! I'd suggest taking a trip to swim with sharks if you need more than a youtube video can offer
He got attacked while pretending to be a seal,what do people expect,
Steve Irwin vibes
I'd say, not a case of mistaken identity here and a dark wetsuit îs totally fit for diving around sharks, what you want to avoid îs wearing bright colors like white, yellow or orange, which stand out to the highly sensitive rods in the shark's eye.
Most likely the diver entered the hunting territory of the animal and since he was fishing, the shark went to get rid of what it perceived as a hunt competitor (inter-specific competition, for biologists).
