You both are amazing people, the world needs more people like you to get people to understand sharks are not the monsters that alot of people think. The world needs to understand the oceans before it's to late.
Yes she is beautiful.. but when you see her work, how she can relate with wild animal, in an hostile environment, you should forget her appearance. We should talk just about her work!! RESPECT!!!
While I respect her work and courage, 15-20 years ago I saw South African Male divers do this, put a including putting Great White into a tonic state. Most of the reason we know of her rather than the men who tried it first is obvious. Young women have privilege.
Ocean Ramsey is ridiculously brave. I remember watching Jaques Cousteau as a child, he and his crew from the Calypso swam with sharks, but were much more careful and cautious than Miss Ramsey. I just can't imagine grabbing a great white's colossal dorsal fin and riding it like a living conveyer belt. Ramsey's footage is amazing and mind boggling.
Studies sharks and their behaviour for years, has a ton of successful dives documented. Internet troll: "her luck will run-out"... It's not about luck, she's an experienced marine biologist and diver. Can she get bitten? Definitely. But calling years of careful research and experience "luck" is pretty ludicrous.

then why is there so many fatal attacks off australia? she's diving with a 3.8m juvenile great white shark that is probably fed beforehand. If a matured 6-7m shark was swimming by her and it was hungry enough she would become food. This crap about them not interested in humans is so uninformed people watched a man that was eaten whole off my home beach and only one inch was recovered. Also, the day before this happened another man was eaten savagely then dragged out to see a few miles up the coastline
paulo - Stop talking it up like having a university degree means she has any any control if a 16' - 21' shark decides to have a bite of her.... she doesn't.
@DELTA-SKY LIGHT WELL SAID!! The Chineese destroy these beautiful beings of evolution for their fins for soup. The Japaneese hunt whales. Only Western Europeans show much concern for the natural world.
Such important work, well done to you both.In Ginza Tokyo this week I saw a huge basking shark tail fin proudly displayed in a Chinese Shark Fin restaurant - why this has still not been banned is an absolute travesty.
I am just a little late on seeing this video but I would like to thank you for all the work you have been doing to raise awareness of Sharks and their lives. Please never stop! I am a fisherman and when I see people catch sharks Juvenals and they put them in their coolers thing that its ok to do really just pisses me off so I tell them that shark have so much mercury in them that it will make them sick to eat them and most of the time it works and they throw them back.
This is all well and good for tourism but the only way to stop the killing is go to the countries the sharkers come from and convince them to shut the killing down. Make it a tourism/money issue or any way to stop the sharking.
Most sharks actually die from being bi-kill caught in massive fishing nets used to gather other fish varieties for human consumption. So what people should do is stop eating fish period
Mr Koala HD So? Shark cages are a thing. And by protecting the ocean, sharks (including the aggressive ones) are less dangerous bc they have a more food further from the shore.
Don't poo poo on her accomplishments, she is putting into action her resolve in her own way. This video reached 700k people, Its the ripple effect, we should be proud of her not judging her on what she SHOULD be doing! - Vee
She has proven more than any other single living individual that sharks are capable of being in relationships with divers Queen Nikki a giant Tiger actively seeks her team out just for pats and what seems like friendship.

Ocean Ramsey! I have great admiration for you, if you ever read this please know that you are the very best. Thank you for all the things you're doing to conserve these majestic creatures, Ms Ramsey your inspiration continues to inspire others. I Love you!
You must educate, post often, let the masses know the beauty of life in all forms sharks included. Know, your disposition (loving the animal) gives you entitlement that self servers lack, that is where the danger lies. Non the less, keep posting, make your name house hold, it is not only sharks that are misunderstood and need to be loved. It is time. Thank you for your work! Respect.
Sharks don't know what we are they don't want to eat us they are simply trying to find out if we taste good or bad. Many times people are uneducated about sharks which also causes them to be a point of interest in the first place. Also its situational in many of the videos this girl is in a cool setting not splashing and screaming or bleeding. These will cause sharks to go crazy and attack you. Also sharks are animals and like any animal they have rules we just need to learn and follow them and killing them off won't be a good idea it would not only affect the sharks but the ocean as a whole. I'm for sharks but that does not change the fact that they scare the shit out of me. They're just animals not the next Jaws just a creature trying to survive.
I Agree!!! Sure it is true that sharks are naturally predators, however it is untrue that they do not perceive feelings and emotions like we do. The only real reason why we're not like sharks is because we have grown in a world full of others like us, in turn, making the planet safer and more neutral for most humans.... While on the other hand sharks have to fight every day for survival, and every creature on this planet is rigged with an instinct that would make them do almost anything for survival. This includes humans... and being at this time in history it is important that every single human on this planet realizes that fact, for at this moment we threaten every single life form that inhabits the planet we share and call home. Earth.
I accidentally swan next to a beautiful Bronze Waler many years ago at Port Noarlunga Reef in South Australia. It just popped up next to me then swam away. This beautiful shark made no attempt to hurt me. I love the ocean and every creature in it.
Urban Student Prepper hahahaha. You truly are uneducated. 90% of shark trade happened because of consuption of sharksfin used for sharks fin soup. A detestable delicacy primarily consumed by chinese people because of chinese culture. Guess what, there are 48 countries in asia not just china, hongkong, japan, taiwan and korea. FYI asia is not china. Study. Read. It makes you educated. It keeps you from being stupid.
Urban Student Prepper thats good to know. You are deviating from the point though. The point is you think all asia consumes shark and i just proved that you are wrong. Apparently you have no intelligent response so you proceed to change the topic gramps. Uneducated indeed.
Urban Student Prepper First. I only responded to your shark comment. Since you are unable to defend your self from being seen as stupid you started talking about something else that was not even part of the original topic. (For your poor comprehension, the original topic was plainly about sharks. Obviously thats what this video is about.) Now you keep hammering on other stuff and even is resulting to ad hominem arguments just shows how patheticly low you could go just to try to hide your mistake. I wont even try to explain what ad hominem is even though you probably dont know what it is. Its just so frustrating talking to someone who keeps repeating stupid things to pretend to be bright. I thought this would be an intelligent conversation. Obviously it isnt so bye gramps
Dear Ocean Ramsey and Juan Oliphant for the wonderful and nice video that I fully enjoyed. I'm a 63 year old man from Sweden that really scared of Great White Shark, so to the grade that can't see a movies like "Open Water" without the feeling that watch a horror movie. The thing is that we don't have any dangerous sharks around the Swedish coast, but just taking a swim in open Swedish waters scares me. This feeling has creeping up on me the last 30 years or so, but before that I had no issues to swim or dive, even in shark infested waters as I did many times while traveling abroad. Does this mean that I hate the Great White Shark? Not at all, I admire that beautiful and graceful animal as I think have the right to live as anyone else on this planet. So the only way to to fight this "Great White Shark phobia" is to face it by watching TH-cam videos and learn more about the Great White Shark. If I got the opportunity to see the Great White Shark in it's rightful environment, I for sure would gratefully appreciate that as one of my life experience. But as it is nowadays I can't afford to travel anymore as I once did do to my limited pension. I wish you Ocean Ramsey and Juan Oliphant all the best and good luck with your wonderful job in the preservation of the sharks.
I know old post, but just saw this video today. There is actually a guy in South Africa who does exactly that, not only with lions, but multiple other wild animals including hyenas.
I grew up here in the north east and have been on the ocean for 34 years and what you 2 are doing is amazing education about sharked is so important. Please keep up the amazing work. And for those who don't have a clue do not go and try to swim with sharks or any marine animals stay on land.
Exactly! I hope you get better in what your doing. Seriously people see the Great white as a monster, but it’s just and animal. Of course it’s not a dog but they are amazing animals and it’s sad that fucking China and Japan kill the sharks because of their fin. They don’t Evan use the whole shark. It’s really sad. I just watched “47 Meters down” and people really believe that sharks act like that. No they don’t. I wouldn’t get near a shark because I don’t have experience but they are amazing creatures. God bless the Ocean
Legendary examples of the love for sharks and open water courting❤ Her influence is shaping the historic curvature that sharks had to be used to identifying from before times of human related interaction experiences. Much better than other examples❤
This is goofy AF. Sharks are beautiful and magnificent creatures and they should be treated as such but that doesn't mean I'm going to ride on the back of one. When you do something like this you are putting your life in the hands of a predator. Great whites are pretty much the perfect killing machine and I'm not saying that as a bad thing I think it's actually pretty damn cool. I have always had a fascination for sharks and most sea life but I would never take a chance with my life by getting in the water unprotected or not in a cage and free swim with these sharks. She could do everything right and still get killed. This kind of reminds me of that guy who loved Bears so much and decided that he was going to live with them and then ended up in the belly of one. I guess they really loved him
You're just proving yourself the fool, and masking your ignorance and fear in hypocrisy. Learning requires respectfulness, deference, patience, listening, and time. I bet sharks are better role models of that than "certain humans."
@@JimBeardsley The problem with your statement is that no matter how much patience, listening, time etc ....you can never truly know the shark's mind mood reasoning and behavior...we are not meant to...to respect them would include not swimming with them...
I admire what you're doing, but shark bites people, that is not a misconception. You swim along a Great White, that makes a great impression on people who see this video, and good for your cause, and yes we do need to protect the ocean, and the sharks, I agree. but swimming along a Great White, petting it, I think that, is a misconception.
I think great whites are gorgeous. I love sharks in general. But I am not gonna go diving with them and test my luck. Maybe SHE has some weird vibe that makes them not wanna attack her. But the idea of telling people: oh just go swim with them...... That’s just stupid. You can also admire them without jumping into the water with them. There’s no need to be so extra.
i know fuck that shit swimming with sharks is dumb af i mean come on they gotta be another job them people can do. jeeeez playing with fire or what loool
Did I miss the part where she said, "Go swim with white sharks"? I see that she will take people out...that doesn't mean she advocates people just jumping in to swim with white sharks wherever they may be. It's sorta like the difference between a professional taking you on safari, and that same person encouraging you to jump into the lion enclosure at the zoo.
Anna K it's not vibes doesn't. Anyone pay attention she says it herselfbshe has study sharks for years she knows the body languages mean sharks show with there body posture when they are excited hunting and when they are calm. Like anything in life you understand its behavior you know when to be around it and when not to. You learn its triggers and avoid them.
She is articulate, educated in the sciences & conservation, is GORGEOUS, compassionate and inspiring. ♥️ the sharks’ inspired the right spokes person to speak on their behalf. The world is listening...
The ocean is plenty and roughly 100 million sharks are indeed killed annually by humans. Since we're basically hunting them more often than they can keep up with our demand(i.e. procreating), we're hunting many shark species into extinction. If sharks disappeared from our oceans, we'd seriously alter the food chain in the ocean. We may see an increase in certain species, which means that the species this animal rely on for food will eventually disappear too and then this species die and so on it goes. This is already happening naturally though but it's much slower. There is a balance to be maintained. Of course, all kinds of animal species die out every day without people even taking notice, but at least it would be the natural course rather than us humans being the sole reason.
It is estimated that, each year: 970 - 2,700 billion fishes are caught from the wild, of which. 450 - 1,000 billion fishes are caught to make fishmeal and fish oil. 37 - 120 billion farmed fish are killed for food.
Great images. Altough I think publishing a paper is mostlly needed: the experiences a diver can acquire at field is very important, but through true research that those experiences plus gathering data, comparing statistics, taking samples, crossing data, studying knolodgement is made. Both practises can walk aside and none is more important than other.
So tourism, entering these animals habitats and filming it is wildlife conservation? What am I missing? What is it that she actually does to protect these animals, other than the research she says she doesn’t do. I clicked the video to find out, but I cannot figure it out. Anybody any links to projects, succesful lobby’s for policy changes or whatever? On her website I can only buy stuff
Yeah she's going to get mauled to death one day. Grizzly man also thought he had a deep connection to the animals he studied him and his girlfriend ended up a grizzlies breakfast.
@@elykspuz6596 Yes I am replying to a 9 month old comment but she is smarter than that. she's had a decade of experience and it's clear to her that sharks are still apex predators, which is why she doesn't go alone or if a shark doesn't feel comfortable she leaves it alone
Fabulous! I am so grateful you are doing this. I would give all my teeth to be able to swim with and be right there learning about these guys. Especially the whale sharks. OMG! How beautiful the ocean and its creatures are. Thankyou for this lovely important vid!🐾💙🐳🐬🐠🐟🐙🐚
Well, its from an animals perspective, animals dont always act in predictable ways, humans dont act in predictable ways eventhough were rational beings. Its not impossible that the shark will bite out of nowhere. @@earlybirdxx
RESPECT the shark. love THE SHARK. great video. need to show this in schools the world over. Educate people the world over that killing the sharks is the BIGGEST BAD MOVE OUT THERE. Such ignorance still lingers. Humans can be so VICIOUS towards the animal kingdom, whether on land or in the high seas. This video really needs to be brought to people attention.
Great.. At least 5 people are going to watch this, and go try to pet a great white shark and get their arms torn off because they misunderstood the video.
Man, you should read more about sharks and their behaviour before you start commenting these kind of things. I've been studying sharks for quite a while now and trust me, that's not how they are. This video touches on that subject too.
She's doing what she's passionate about...! If she dies in the process, it's fate.....there's a higher chance of dying in an auto accident.., so live on!!!
... a higher chance of dying in a car accident to the rest of us... as little as she drives, and as much as she dives with these creatures, Im sure shes tipped the odds the other way
273,973 sharks killed each day ! (Seems very accurate ) but my main point is 273,973 sharks per day x 365 days in a year comes to a total per year of 100,000,145 if this has been happening for 10 years then why are sharks not extinct already . Also going on those numbers 11,415 are killed every HOUR of every day . Now bearing in mind they do like blaming shark finning which seems more of a eastern thing then out of the world population probably half might even think about eating shark fin soup and only a tiny percentage of them actually doing the catching and finning 11415 sharks per hour seems a lot to kill every hour
Being a vegan is not the cure can you imagine the land and water it would take to grow vegetables for every one of the 7 billion people on the planet we would have to wipe out every natural habitat on land . If ya want a cure look at population control .
actually we use less space growing plants than we do animals the main reason being u need to feed animals plants that uses up more space than just using that space to make plants for the humans to eat. example you use up more space, water feeding something like a cow plus the cows food needs watering and land for the crops to grow as opposed to eating what they eat cutting out the middle man/ animal. but yeah you are right, population control is also important nothing alone is a cure but individually is a cure but little things u can do can help the animals and the environment. Hope this helps clarify a few things. I love the sea and sharks especially although i don't think untrained people should randomly start swimming with shark (or even her cuz imagine the rep sharks will get if they bite her out of curiosity) i do enjoy that it makes conservation awareness. cheers
israel segura and what about places like the countries in the artic circle or the massive amounts of land that can't be farmed because the soil is not productive or what about the natural habitats that get wiped out to make enough room to to grow all this stuff bearing in mind only a small percentage is organic and a lot of pesticides are used which are killing off more animals or what about the fact the only reason half the people can choose to be vegan is by using fossil fuels to transport fruit and veg around the world but it's fine to use them dead animals to get there food cause that suits a vegan mentality or what about the fact that the reason half of people are still alive today thanks to animals used in medicine or the fact that rape seed oil is causing massive deforestation because people are more worried about there weight than what it does to the environment ... if your a vegan try looking into the things from history that would not have happened if it hadn't been for killing and using animals
426 09 and how much land space does it take to grow those vegetables and how many animals get killed making that space to grow them but it's easy to ignore that so ya can seem all high and mighty because ya won't eat an animal like I just replied look at the forests being cut down because of rape seed oil and what about people who live in deserts who don't have fertile should we just let them starve because they can't grow enough food
Ok to answer each of your points lets start of with the arctic circle. If u cant farm vegatables to eat then because of the temperatures or soil qualities then u cant farm the food for the cows, chickens, pigs etc. So u have to ship food there either way, except u are using more resources by not taking to account the all the food ( the water and space that planting corn takes up)and land that the animal uses plus the transportation of its food and itself to where to the location where it gets sold it goes through one more step. That covers transportation now for the part about the pesticide u do realize they put pesticides on the food that they give to the animals right u are inderectly eating it this way, this plus the high amounts of nitrogen fertilizer that is used in animal feed gets washed into the sea, also wild fish are being overfished to feed chickens or used as fertilizer for animal feed. Its just not efficient. You say look to history and i see we have made many mistakes that humans have made because we aren't perfect such as slavery or war( not that im compairing slaves to animals just an example) just because we have been doing something doesn't make it right. Im not vegan because i feel bad for pigs or whatever but because its not a substantial method. Something as simple as not eating fish can help shark numbers go up. Hope this helps
That was Oceanic White Tip sharks NOT the Great White. Oceanic White Tips live out in very deep waters and attack in a frenzied type pattern, like Piranhas.
remember that guy who thought he could befriend the grizzly bears in Alaska? we all know how that ended, him and his girlfriend got killed by the thing they were trying to protect. now i respect what she's doing as far as raising awareness and what not but swimming next to a great white can only end well so many times.
I admire her bringing awareness and all.........but.........this could easily end badly. Just like the dude that lived among bears, or Roy (Sigfried), or Crocodile Hunter, wild animals can and probably will turn on you eventually. Russian Roulette if you ask me. Damn, she's beautiful, though!
Hysteria is one thing....a healthy respect for a shark's nature and capabilities are another. Swimming with Great Whites seems reckless and communicating (or at least trying to) that they aren't something to be wary of. She's gonna end up like Steve Irwin.
Well not so fast,it depends what kind of shark am a diver with 4000 dives under my belt so i know about sharks.the great white maybe in danger but most other kinds of sharks are not😉
really? because the International Union for the conservation of nature list about 64 species as endangered. and up to a third of all species have been placed as "at risk of extinction".
einfach unglaublich schön anzuschauen. grosses kompliment und meine hochachtung. es spiegelt auch meine meinung wieder, das der mensch nicht alles zerstören darf und die haie schützen muß! bitte bitte macht weiter so und dreht witerhin so ausgezeichnete filme.
I can tell you another story...called the Wreck of the USS Indianapolis.Swimming or diving with any sharks is dangerous..they are not pets nor something to be played with.Always treat wild animals with respect and distance,they can and will kill you.She is a researcher and knows the boundary between what she can do and what she can't do.As a diver i have probably seen at least 40 species of sharks from Great Whites to the Dogfish Shark.We do need sharks to help keep the eco system clean but we should also just let them be as well.I don't agree with some actions she took here because it could lead to severe problems later on considering that most people would panic at the site of a Great White.The Great White,Bull,Tiger and Oceanic Sharks can be very aggressive when they are feeding or hunting food....they can also attack without warning if that shark is a pregnant female about to give birth.Though they showed her swimming outside a cage ...they had one real close"Just in Case".
Proud of the work you guys do to bring awareness to shark/ocean conservation. I love what you guys do. People need to treat the environment better for the sake of the future of all human kind. I do have a critical question though. How is your work bringing awareness to the countries who are actually killing the oceans? It's awesome you're bringing people out to swim but those look like American tourists. This just seems like a couple of Californians living a rad life.
In what way does touching a wild animal help conserve them? I think most of the world knows that “Jaws” is a misrepresentation and I don’t imagine Japanese fisherman (as an example) are watching these lunatics and rethinking their ways.
She is such a kind hearted person, I may be scared of sharks but I find them very fascinating animals

Know, your disposition (loving the animal) gives you entitlement that self servers lack, that is where the danger lies. Non the less, keep posting, make your name house hold, it is not only sharks that are misunderstood and need to be loved. It is time. Thank you for your work! Respect.
Such a powerful piece that truly moves me.
Sharks don't know what we are they don't want to eat us they are simply trying to find out if we taste good or bad. Many times people are uneducated about sharks which also causes them to be a point of interest in the first place. Also its situational in many of the videos this girl is in a cool setting not splashing and screaming or bleeding. These will cause sharks to go crazy and attack you. Also sharks are animals and like any animal they have rules we just need to learn and follow them and killing them off won't be a good idea it would not only affect the sharks but the ocean as a whole. I'm for sharks but that does not change the fact that they scare the shit out of me. They're just animals not the next Jaws just a creature trying to survive.
Sharks dont taste anything. They either swallow whole or in huge chunks.
If that's true then sharks wouldn't stop eating you. I never heard of a shark that continued to eat someone already attacked.
I Agree!!!
Sure it is true that sharks are naturally predators, however it is untrue that they do not perceive feelings and emotions like we do. The only real reason why we're not like sharks is because we have grown in a world full of others like us, in turn, making the planet safer and more neutral for most humans.... While on the other hand sharks have to fight every day for survival, and every creature on this planet is rigged with an instinct that would make them do almost anything for survival. This includes humans... and being at this time in history it is important that every single human on this planet realizes that fact, for at this moment we threaten every single life form that inhabits the planet we share and call home. Earth.
Epic Fox "I never heard of a shark that continued to eat someone already attacked." I've read the coroners reports of exactly what you're denying.
Epic Fox I
You give the " blonde girl" title a whole new meaning. You're a hero! What courage!# i secretly love sharks# Long live these magnificent creatures 😎💙
**Ocean = UNICORN**
God Bless Ocean RAmsey
I accidentally swan next to a beautiful Bronze Waler many years ago at Port Noarlunga Reef in South Australia. It just popped up next to me then swam away. This beautiful shark made no attempt to hurt me. I love the ocean and every creature in it.
need a chinese speaking co-host for China friendly anti shark fin soup
As long as people still see it as tasty nutrition, the number of sharks will still continue to decline
Urban Student Prepper whole asia? Really? You might need a little more time spent being a student because obviously you are uneducated
Urban Student Prepper hahahaha. You truly are uneducated. 90% of shark trade happened because of consuption of sharksfin used for sharks fin soup. A detestable delicacy primarily consumed by chinese people because of chinese culture. Guess what, there are 48 countries in asia not just china, hongkong, japan, taiwan and korea. FYI asia is not china.
Study. Read. It makes you educated. It keeps you from being stupid.
Urban Student Prepper thats good to know. You are deviating from the point though. The point is you think all asia consumes shark and i just proved that you are wrong. Apparently you have no intelligent response so you proceed to change the topic gramps. Uneducated indeed.
Urban Student Prepper First. I only responded to your shark comment. Since you are unable to defend your self from being seen as stupid you started talking about something else that was not even part of the original topic. (For your poor comprehension, the original topic was plainly about sharks. Obviously thats what this video is about.)
Now you keep hammering on other stuff and even is resulting to ad hominem arguments just shows how patheticly low you could go just to try to hide your mistake. I wont even try to explain what ad hominem is even though you probably dont know what it is. Its just so frustrating talking to someone who keeps repeating stupid things to pretend to be bright.
I thought this would be an intelligent conversation. Obviously it isnt so bye gramps
Dear Ocean Ramsey and Juan Oliphant for the wonderful and nice video that I fully enjoyed.
I'm a 63 year old man from Sweden that really scared of Great White Shark, so to the grade that can't see a movies like "Open Water" without the feeling that watch a horror movie.
The thing is that we don't have any dangerous sharks around the Swedish coast, but just taking a swim in open Swedish waters scares me. This feeling has creeping up on me the last 30 years or so, but before that I had no issues to swim or dive, even in shark infested waters as I did many times while traveling abroad. Does this mean that I hate the Great White Shark? Not at all, I admire that beautiful and graceful animal as I think have the right to live as anyone else on this planet. So the only way to to fight this "Great White Shark phobia" is to face it by watching TH-cam videos and learn more about the Great White Shark.
If I got the opportunity to see the Great White Shark in it's rightful environment, I for sure would gratefully appreciate that as one of my life experience. But as it is nowadays I can't afford to travel anymore as I once did do to my limited pension.
I wish you Ocean Ramsey and Juan Oliphant all the best and good luck with your wonderful job in the preservation of the sharks.
imagine being as close to a wild lion as she is to those sharks...no lion or other wild animal would accept a human that close.
Tobbezeichnet incorrect, but usually accurate
sharks are less aggressive than a lot of wild animals on land. (;
I know old post, but just saw this video today. There is actually a guy in South Africa who does exactly that, not only with lions, but multiple other wild animals including hyenas.
I grew up here in the north east and have been on the ocean for 34 years and what you 2 are doing is amazing education about sharked is so important. Please keep up the amazing work. And for those who don't have a clue do not go and try to swim with sharks or any marine animals stay on land.
Exactly! I hope you get better in what your doing. Seriously people see the Great white as a monster, but it’s just and animal. Of course it’s not a dog but they are amazing animals and it’s sad that fucking China and Japan kill the sharks because of their fin. They don’t Evan use the whole shark. It’s really sad. I just watched “47 Meters down” and people really believe that sharks act like that. No they don’t. I wouldn’t get near a shark because I don’t have experience but they are amazing creatures. God bless the Ocean
Legendary examples of the love for sharks and open water courting❤
Her influence is shaping the historic curvature that sharks had to be used to identifying from before times of human related interaction experiences.
Much better than other examples❤
I love what she's doing
Bravo, Ocean Ramsey! I salute your bravery, your selflessness and your vision!
Pure awesomeness...
👍👍👍
What they are doing is beautiful and I appreciate these amazing people for being so kind hearted .
This is goofy AF. Sharks are beautiful and magnificent creatures and they should be treated as such but that doesn't mean I'm going to ride on the back of one. When you do something like this you are putting your life in the hands of a predator. Great whites are pretty much the perfect killing machine and I'm not saying that as a bad thing I think it's actually pretty damn cool. I have always had a fascination for sharks and most sea life but I would never take a chance with my life by getting in the water unprotected or not in a cage and free swim with these sharks. She could do everything right and still get killed. This kind of reminds me of that guy who loved Bears so much and decided that he was going to live with them and then ended up in the belly of one. I guess they really loved him
São simplesmente MARAVILHOSOS.
i couldn't have said it better. lots of fruits and nuts in cali and hawaii....
You're just proving yourself the fool, and masking your ignorance and fear in hypocrisy. Learning requires respectfulness, deference, patience, listening, and time. I bet sharks are better role models of that than "certain humans."
orcas
@@JimBeardsley The problem with your statement is that no matter how much patience, listening, time etc ....you can never truly know the shark's mind mood reasoning and behavior...we are not meant to...to respect them would include not swimming with them...
That's amazing keep up the good work little blond girl,2 thumbs up.
I admire what you're doing, but shark bites people, that is not a misconception. You swim along a Great White, that makes a great impression on people who see this video, and good for your cause, and yes we do need to protect the ocean, and the sharks, I agree.
but swimming along a Great White, petting it, I think that, is a misconception.
The work that you two are doing is so amazing!
I think great whites are gorgeous. I love sharks in general. But I am not gonna go diving with them and test my luck. Maybe SHE has some weird vibe that makes them not wanna attack her. But the idea of telling people: oh just go swim with them......
That’s just stupid. You can also admire them without jumping into the water with them. There’s no need to be so extra.
I've swum with great whites...many in fact. They are way bigger in person and very slow and peaceful...but once food is nearby they turn on a dime.
i know fuck that shit swimming with sharks is dumb af i mean come on they gotta be another job them people can do. jeeeez playing with fire or what loool
Did I miss the part where she said, "Go swim with white sharks"? I see that she will take people out...that doesn't mean she advocates people just jumping in to swim with white sharks wherever they may be.
It's sorta like the difference between a professional taking you on safari, and that same person encouraging you to jump into the lion enclosure at the zoo.
Anna K it's not vibes doesn't. Anyone pay attention she says it herselfbshe has study sharks for years she knows the body languages mean sharks show with there body posture when they are excited hunting and when they are calm. Like anything in life you understand its behavior you know when to be around it and when not to. You learn its triggers and avoid them.
She is articulate, educated in the sciences & conservation, is GORGEOUS, compassionate and inspiring. ♥️ the sharks’ inspired the right spokes person to speak on their behalf. The world is listening...
Not really educated in the sciences. She should not be touching these animals for a bunch of reasons
So there are 100,000,045 sharks killed annually by humans? Idk that number just seems ludicrous and hard to believe to me.
The ocean is plenty and roughly 100 million sharks are indeed killed annually by humans. Since we're basically hunting them more often than they can keep up with our demand(i.e. procreating), we're hunting many shark species into extinction. If sharks disappeared from our oceans, we'd seriously alter the food chain in the ocean. We may see an increase in certain species, which means that the species this animal rely on for food will eventually disappear too and then this species die and so on it goes. This is already happening naturally though but it's much slower.
There is a balance to be maintained. Of course, all kinds of animal species die out every day without people even taking notice, but at least it would be the natural course rather than us humans being the sole reason.
It is estimated that, each year: 970 - 2,700 billion fishes are caught from the wild, of which. 450 - 1,000 billion fishes are caught to make fishmeal and fish oil. 37 - 120 billion farmed fish are killed for food.
Great images. Altough I think publishing a paper is mostlly needed: the experiences a diver can acquire at field is very important, but through true research that those experiences plus gathering data, comparing statistics, taking samples, crossing data, studying knolodgement is made. Both practises can walk aside and none is more important than other.
At first I thought this said “Gordon Ramsey”
Awesome ! So many animals are misunderstood and without people like this to educate others we would never know any better !! AWESOME !
I'm afraid we all know how her effort at showing how loveable sharks are is going to end.
So tourism, entering these animals habitats and filming it is wildlife conservation? What am I missing?
What is it that she actually does to protect these animals, other than the research she says she doesn’t do. I clicked the video to find out, but I cannot figure it out. Anybody any links to projects, succesful lobby’s for policy changes or whatever? On her website I can only buy stuff
Like with any predator you still should be careful.
@DELTA-SKY LIGHT what did you smoke lol
Yeah she's going to get mauled to death one day. Grizzly man also thought he had a deep connection to the animals he studied him and his girlfriend ended up a grizzlies breakfast.
@@elykspuz6596 Yes I am replying to a 9 month old comment but she is smarter than that. she's had a decade of experience and it's clear to her that sharks are still apex predators, which is why she doesn't go alone or if a shark doesn't feel comfortable she leaves it alone
@@elykspuz6596 I think Grizzly are more Dangerous as the most sharks !
Shame that there is so many negative perception. These people are so inspiring and a true credit to nature.
Thank you for your wonderful video.
She hasnt swam with the wrong shark yet. Just wait till she bumps into a Loan Shark.
Fabulous! I am so grateful you are doing this. I would give all my teeth to be able to swim with and be right there learning about these guys. Especially the whale sharks. OMG! How beautiful the ocean and its creatures are. Thankyou for this lovely important vid!🐾💙🐳🐬🐠🐟🐙🐚
They will still eat you if they are hungry, same thing with bears simple as that
Is that comment from a sharks perspective?
Well, its from an animals perspective, animals dont always act in predictable ways, humans dont act in predictable ways eventhough were rational beings. Its not impossible that the shark will bite out of nowhere. @@earlybirdxx
@Anthony L no not all shark attacks are mistake made by the shark. You're a moron.
I will be visiting someday Hawaii and will definetly come by to dive with sharks🙏🏽Keep up the good work!!!
RESPECT the shark. love THE SHARK. great video. need to show this in schools the world over. Educate people the world over that killing the sharks is the BIGGEST BAD MOVE OUT THERE. Such ignorance still lingers. Humans can be so VICIOUS towards the animal kingdom, whether on land or in the high seas. This video really needs to be brought to people attention.
I would LOVE to dive with sharks. Looking to see some Great Whites next summer!
Great.. At least 5 people are going to watch this, and go try to pet a great white shark and get their arms torn off because they misunderstood the video.
Yeah... Someone completely missed the entire point of this video.
That "someone" isnt me. Im saying you show idiots a video about sharks being safe to swim up to and idiots are going to get their arm torn off.
Man, you should read more about sharks and their behaviour before you start commenting these kind of things. I've been studying sharks for quite a while now and trust me, that's not how they are. This video touches on that subject too.
Are you even reading what Im commenting...
Yes and it doesn't make sense at all.
Fantastic work your doing Ramsey
She's doing what she's passionate about...! If she dies in the process, it's fate.....there's a higher chance of dying in an auto accident.., so live on!!!
... a higher chance of dying in a car accident to the rest of us... as little as she drives, and as much as she dives with these creatures, Im sure shes tipped the odds the other way
@@adriandrewpodcast5771 how do you know how much driving she does...?🤔
Great work on the production. Entertaining video
90% of sharks? Where u get that figure ? Come to Australia and see if there is a shortage of sharks
jem Ogn or.go to Florida...they are not endangered...fuck sharks
Yigal Rodriguez yeah, 'cause fuck healthy ecosystems, amirite?
Thank you Ocean for saving the various sharks species.
273,973 sharks killed each day ! (Seems very accurate ) but my main point is 273,973 sharks per day x 365 days in a year comes to a total per year of 100,000,145 if this has been happening for 10 years then why are sharks not extinct already . Also going on those numbers 11,415 are killed every HOUR of every day . Now bearing in mind they do like blaming shark finning which seems more of a eastern thing then out of the world population probably half might even think about eating shark fin soup and only a tiny percentage of them actually doing the catching and finning 11415 sharks per hour seems a lot to kill every hour
Being a vegan is not the cure can you imagine the land and water it would take to grow vegetables for every one of the 7 billion people on the planet we would have to wipe out every natural habitat on land . If ya want a cure look at population control .
actually we use less space growing plants than we do animals the main reason being u need to feed animals plants that uses up more space than just using that space to make plants for the humans to eat. example you use up more space, water feeding something like a cow plus the cows food needs watering and land for the crops to grow as opposed to eating what they eat cutting out the middle man/ animal. but yeah you are right, population control is also important nothing alone is a cure but individually is a cure but little things u can do can help the animals and the environment. Hope this helps clarify a few things. I love the sea and sharks especially although i don't think untrained people should randomly start swimming with shark (or even her cuz imagine the rep sharks will get if they bite her out of curiosity) i do enjoy that it makes conservation awareness. cheers
israel segura and what about places like the countries in the artic circle or the massive amounts of land that can't be farmed because the soil is not productive or what about the natural habitats that get wiped out to make enough room to to grow all this stuff bearing in mind only a small percentage is organic and a lot of pesticides are used which are killing off more animals or what about the fact the only reason half the people can choose to be vegan is by using fossil fuels to transport fruit and veg around the world but it's fine to use them dead animals to get there food cause that suits a vegan mentality or what about the fact that the reason half of people are still alive today thanks to animals used in medicine or the fact that rape seed oil is causing massive deforestation because people are more worried about there weight than what it does to the environment ... if your a vegan try looking into the things from history that would not have happened if it hadn't been for killing and using animals
426 09 and how much land space does it take to grow those vegetables and how many animals get killed making that space to grow them but it's easy to ignore that so ya can seem all high and mighty because ya won't eat an animal like I just replied look at the forests being cut down because of rape seed oil and what about people who live in deserts who don't have fertile should we just let them starve because they can't grow enough food
Ok to answer each of your points lets start of with the arctic circle. If u cant farm vegatables to eat then because of the temperatures or soil qualities then u cant farm the food for the cows, chickens, pigs etc. So u have to ship food there either way, except u are using more resources by not taking to account the all the food ( the water and space that planting corn takes up)and land that the animal uses plus the transportation of its food and itself to where to the location where it gets sold it goes through one more step. That covers transportation now for the part about the pesticide u do realize they put pesticides on the food that they give to the animals right u are inderectly eating it this way, this plus the high amounts of nitrogen fertilizer that is used in animal feed gets washed into the sea, also wild fish are being overfished to feed chickens or used as fertilizer for animal feed. Its just not efficient. You say look to history and i see we have made many mistakes that humans have made because we aren't perfect such as slavery or war( not that im compairing slaves to animals just an example) just because we have been doing something doesn't make it right. Im not vegan because i feel bad for pigs or whatever but because its not a substantial method. Something as simple as not eating fish can help shark numbers go up. Hope this helps
Where do I sign up to swim with the sharks?! Bucket list!!
Tell that to the 200 sailors in ww2 in the Pacific Ocean that we’re slowly killed off every day and night.
200 was the story told in the real life true story of jaws ...it was hundreds tho.... It was terrible and thank you for thinking of our guys.
That was Oceanic White Tip sharks NOT the Great White. Oceanic White Tips live out in very deep waters and attack in a frenzied type pattern, like Piranhas.
@@redrumtruecrime well that's terrifying
Great work with the sharks experts!
Yeah - I’m good. I will enjoy their haunting and ghostly Beauty from the safety of my computer monitor.
- I would not enjoy being lunch.
🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈
remember that guy who thought he could befriend the grizzly bears in Alaska? we all know how that ended, him and his girlfriend got killed by the thing they were trying to protect. now i respect what she's doing as far as raising awareness and what not but swimming next to a great white can only end well so many times.
im more concerned by her name Ocean to be honest
wow shes living my dream.. i always love to see people who live their passion
they must think she's a remora
Amazing !!! I follow these two on Instagram and I learnt so much about sharks! I am so proud of these kind of humans !!!! Thank you 🙏🏼
I admire her bringing awareness and all.........but.........this could easily end badly. Just like the dude that lived among bears, or Roy (Sigfried), or Crocodile Hunter, wild animals can and probably will turn on you eventually. Russian Roulette if you ask me. Damn, she's beautiful, though!
You are awesome, Girl !! Speaking for those prescious beings who don't is better than noble. (hope that's not too corny)
Hysteria is one thing....a healthy respect for a shark's nature and capabilities are another. Swimming with Great Whites seems reckless and communicating (or at least trying to) that they aren't something to be wary of.
She's gonna end up like Steve Irwin.
Very cool video. Keep up the great work!
So why can't conserve human, unborn lives with the same dignity and respect that we give to sharks?
She's a brave woman no doubts and she deserves commends for what she's doing not insults or crack jokes.
Well not so fast,it depends what kind of shark am a diver with 4000 dives under my belt so i know about sharks.the great white maybe in danger but most other kinds of sharks are not😉
really? because the International Union for the conservation of nature list about 64 species as endangered. and up to a third of all species have been placed as "at risk of extinction".
einfach unglaublich schön anzuschauen. grosses kompliment und meine hochachtung. es spiegelt auch meine meinung wieder, das der mensch nicht alles zerstören darf und die haie schützen muß! bitte bitte macht weiter so und dreht witerhin so ausgezeichnete filme.
The day will come and one of this "beautiful animals" is in a bad mood... u cant Control wild animals Think of ☝🏻
Amazing work. I also wonder how she can hold her breath for so long?
Practice tons of practice
I can tell you another story...called the Wreck of the USS Indianapolis.Swimming or diving with any sharks is dangerous..they are not pets nor something to be played with.Always treat wild animals with respect and distance,they can and will kill you.She is a researcher and knows the boundary between what she can do and what she can't do.As a diver i have probably seen at least 40 species of sharks from Great Whites to the Dogfish Shark.We do need sharks to help keep the eco system clean but we should also just let them be as well.I don't agree with some actions she took here because it could lead to severe problems later on considering that most people would panic at the site of a Great White.The Great White,Bull,Tiger and Oceanic Sharks can be very aggressive when they are feeding or hunting food....they can also attack without warning if that shark is a pregnant female about to give birth.Though they showed her swimming outside a cage ...they had one real close"Just in Case".
I remember my first dive to see a great white once man they are huge and awesome I have a lot respect for these powerful and curious creatures
That's so cool what they're doing. I'd love to learn how to scuba dive and go with her
Thank you miss❤ adding to my bucket list rn❤
Proud of the work you guys do to bring awareness to shark/ocean conservation. I love what you guys do. People need to treat the environment better for the sake of the future of all human kind. I do have a critical question though. How is your work bringing awareness to the countries who are actually killing the oceans? It's awesome you're bringing people out to swim but those look like American tourists. This just seems like a couple of Californians living a rad life.
Beautiful work!
Super nice video, thanks for traing to save the sharks.
In what way does touching a wild animal help conserve them? I think most of the world knows that “Jaws” is a misrepresentation and I don’t imagine Japanese fisherman (as an example) are watching these lunatics and rethinking their ways.
This is amazing! Your an amazing human being 👍🏻🇨🇦
It took me years of learning to free dive to finally get my local Bronze Whalers to take interest in me...... success!
You two are amazing human beings!
Good on Y'all! Proud of you!
where do you get those hammerhead shark earings from there beautefullllllllllllll love them and the sharks have you whached jaws or the meg
Come to Perth if u want to see sharks we wish they were friendly like the ones in your video.
I would be terrified! How do you keep from being eaten?
This girl is amazing!!! I loved the video😊💖👍✌
