- Off the coast of South Africa, seals risk their lives every time they go to eat. But in recent years, they've developed a behaviour to protect themselves from one of the most fearsome predators of the ocean - the Great White Shark.

This footage was mind blowing. Big ups to the film crews who managed to capture this
On blood
@jamesmackenzie3262 no way they could get a stable footage if the camera was attached to a seal
They (BBC nature programs) are known to insert CGI so one cannot take anything they show at face value.
i hadn't thought of how the filmmakers attained such awesome footage but i adore the courageous seals who literally went headlong into a deadly situation
some of the best camera work ive seen in a long time. holy hell - great job.
The shark looked like he was being escorted out of an event for being unruly 😂
😂😅😂😂😂😂
youtubers when they get followed by 30 mall cops for having a camera
Not too far off!
wont happen with bulls
Is anyone else blown away by how clear the water is? Some of the most beautiful great white footage I’ve seen
funny thing about polution? most ov it is made by humans... remote part of the world. not many humans thus nature remains.
This is pretty average IMO. Check out this channel if you wanna see high quality Great White footage. Very cool footage! www.youtube.com/@TheMalibuArtist
Have to agree, with that amazing white sand too, looks like an aquarium, almost too aesthetically pleasing.
I love how the seals said not today and gangsta up on his ass he knew to leave he had a few clear bites but didn't take em because they have bwen known to eat the eyes of white sharks
It didnt look clear at all but dark smh.
The cinematography, both underwater and above, was breathtaking. From the sharks explosive acceleration at 1:03 to the seals chasing the shark away amazing.
Cgi
l would've sworn for a second the underwater footage was CGl. Amazing stuff.
Once again BBC showing why they're the greatest nature doc producers
Biggest budget for large egged camera guys too
Better than netflix our planet by mile
They’re well shot but there are many issues with them. Forced narrative, dramatic editing, inaccurate sound effects, sentimentality, faking shots etc.
Snoop dogs plizzanet earth is better
all coming to an end in 2027 thank god, no more tax payer funded nature documentaries
I've never seen so many Great Whites in just one place! I also never thought I'd live to see the day when seals gave a Great White a hard time. That's pretty awesome
you should watch themalibuartist there is plenty of footage with multiple great whites, thick as fleas in so cal!
He just ate two and is heading out
Because it never happened
@@Monzaman30E
what never happened?
@@xisotopex Exactly.
I bet the first seal who stood up to the sharks is world famous in the seal community
😂😂😂
He tried it once and it worked
He tried it twice and it didn't
It may also be a dead martyr seal
He’s a SEAL seal
only one species that dolphins and seals dont try on is bull sharks
1:03 is one of the coolest things I ever seen. The speed of the sharks acceleration chasing the seal and the seal reacting and escape. Unbelievable.
that motherfucker was gangsta
Strength in numbers at it's best, a true life lesson, and side note, I hope David lives forever ❤
Bad news, pal - he certainly won’t.
you just had to be that guy, eh@@RichieC135
And also in a way he will. His voice will go down in history, to be enjoyed by many many generations to come. And noI 'm not referring to an AI voice copy 😉, I mean because these documentaries will show a time when nature was still thriving. That will be valuable forever too.
When your food fights back.
I’ve seen some videos where it seems his voice has been closely reproduced by AI. Scary, but somewhat astonishing in the potential for continuance.
imagining 40 slices of pizza just swarming around us menacingly
At 3:07, I can just hear the seals shouting, "AND, STAY OUT!!" 😆🦈
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂✌️✌️
The seals: "Why have many small fish when we can have one big one?? At em boyz!!"
Since being a child I’ve always been mesmerised by seals and the way they behave in water.
So gracefully agile!
What a phenomenal shoot and production! Thank you!
Yeah you couldn't ask for a better display of how seals use their much tighter turning radius to defeat a shark's charge with a quick loop-the-loop maneuver. The shark's mass and speed force him to overshoot, and he kind of does an underwater skid forward. Then he loses his turning momentum as he manages a half turn, much slower than the seal, and sees that it's useless as he plows to a stop with the seal already swimming away behind him. It's incredible to see how nature sets up its battles based on subtle differences like angular momentum
If the shark simply turned around I think the mobs confidence would go.
finally a seal person and not a i love great white wannabe hypocrite. 🫵👍
@@highthai7no the mob would just turn around also. what it really needs to do is bite one but it cant because it doesn’t have the area and depth to accelerate. and with so many seals it harder to lock on to a target.
Sharks vs Seals= "The cosmic ballet goes on."
Forever and ever 😊
“Does anyone want to change seats?”
Respect and pay raise for the camera man and the crew that captured this amazing event.
Cgi
I'm amazed on how they get this footage! Absolutely immaculate capture!
These seals are so brave and stoic in facing the danger.
The seals are jackasses. They are basically like dolphins who like to bully greatwhite sharks. The shark is minding its own business. Leave the poor Greatwhite shark alone.
@leonsilver6946
Minding it's own business? Did you miss the part where it was trying to eat them?
Now if only the penguins could face up to the seals
@@AltMusicFan15😂😂😂
@@Chef_Alpoif she seals could face the orcas, they definitely can they just don’t understand they should stay together
An absolutely great video of an unreal phenomenon. I wouldn't believe this without seeing it.
Stunning! Seeing is unbelievable .. truly so. Changing situations force organisms to adapt. Behavioral flexibility & intelligence is one of the answers, instead of simply falling into victim. How did BBC come to find such an extraordinary moment!!! Thanks is not enough.
And you presumably think the seals are intelligent and flexible and the sharks are dumb and primitive and unable to adapt? Because this video only showcases half the story.
@@bkjeong4302 the comment was made based on the footage only.
I'm not so sure if "stupid" animal exists as you say .....
"Primitive" means sharks have much much longer history with that bauplan. One of the greatly successful creatures on this planet! Amazing, isn't it?
@@bkjeong4302Slow your roll; the guy/gal said nothing of the sort. If this is a new phenomenon and it continues, there's a chance the sharks will change their hunting strategy as well, to try to counter the seals' defenses... It's really like watching evolution in slow motion. A similar situation has already happened in Africa: there's a group of 5 male cheetahs that have been filmed hunting and living as a group. I'm not sure if they're still together but the scientists observing them made it sound like it's become kind of a regular thing for those 5 cheetahs which also normally live solitary lives (minus a bit of mating) like Great Whites. It's incredibly interesting.
Planet earth 3 is gonna be a big w
I love it when animals come together to save or rescue or help their other animal friends that alone shows how smart some of these animals are they have to make a conscious decision to help which means they have to also realize that there’s a problem and or danger in the fact that it’s all of them and they all understood what they had to do and they did. It was amazing.
The camera work and editing are flawless, David's not bad either
As a guy that loves fishing very often i see a seal that lives close to where i fish...she is coming all the time to check as out to see what we are doing and goes away ahah! Whatching this gave me chills how these creatures take on their biggest enemy to protect their family its amazing..even the shark was hambled and just and didnt even try to hit back...Great shots amazing video!
Orcas also hunt seals. I saw something recently about them showing up in S. Africa coastal waters and the Great Whites moving away..
This is like the "Stand together" scene from Disney's Dinosaur (2000)
United we stand, divided we fall ✊
Anyone think that 1:45 is one of the most eerie things you've ever seen? Just teeth suddenly coming into view from the murky depths and it being slowly backed up by an absolute tank of body that just wants to eat.
Narration, Camerawork, editing - BBC earth is top of the game
Not surprised by how blown away I'am by ALL your Doc's. Thank you BBC! Another masterpiece!
Wow! That's fascinating! Nature can truly be amazing. Our crew got on camera another moment where nature surprises you. We saw baboons that created a pact with lions so they live at the same spot but don't get eaten by the lions. In return, they attract prey for them.
Wow! What doc is this on?
More like pretend to be on the lookout and use the trust other animals have in them so the lions can eat them instead
That must have been an interesting contract negotiation...
.it's called cgi you simpleton
I never thought I will feel sorry for a great white shark… Thing looked terrified at the end.
That is awesome. The many showing their strength against the few. There *is* strength in numbers!
I hope Sir David Attenborough lives another 100 years he’s the best❤
Everytime the bbc make a nature documentary we learn loads of new animal behaviours. Amazing.
Amazing behavior, I had no idea Seals would do that!
The shark: “Nah, ill just come back tomorrow when they ungroup 🤷🏻♂️”
How on earth did they filem this? Incredible!
The seals and shark are paid actors...
Cgi
@seanowens3153 Oh, really? I thought they are filming the actual staff. Disappointing…
... who knew! Go Seals 🦭 💪🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
I'm so glad I grew up with David Attenborough and not tiktok!!!!
Imagine going to your kitchen to grab some lunch, and a crowd of Lunchables just starts following you around.
Great Whites, truly magnificent creatures
BBC film crew really maxed out with this one. Made it feel like that Avengers scene where they had sorrounded Thanos. 😂
shark just casually swimming unimpressed
Another awesome BBC production as usual! Superb narration by David Attenborough, he's the best there is! I once saw a group of bluejays harassing a very large owl on a tree branch in the daytime, so much so that the sleepy owl eventually took flight to rest elsewhere. I've seen videos (perhaps were BBC Earth!) of cape buffalo en masse, going after lions. The prey definitely turn the tables when they see the opportunity!
BBC #1 on Nature Documentaries
Attenborough about the great white : „most notorious predator“
Killer whale: „am I a joke to you?“
The key words being "most notorious", not "greatest". The killer whale just doesn't have the reputation the great white has.... probably helps that the average person loves it and fears the great white, which is unfortunate of course. ^^;
bull sharks are
Bravo to the Seals; Bravo!!
It's like a flock of chickens chasing a kid in the yard.
This has to be the best Great White footage i've ever seen
War between seal and the shark 🦈
This seals out here risking their lives to safe a homie and I don't even have the courage to talk to my crush properly smh.
Mind blowing stuff. I would love to go on an adventure and film this kind of raw behavior. BBC documentaries are 2nd to none.
I remember back in Easter 1995 when Attenborough and the BBC did their first Great White shark documentary! As someone fascinated with Great Whites this was as exciting for me as any movie premiere!
Watching this makes me love Great white sharks even more, they’re so perfect!!!!!
This clip reminds me of those land scenes from your Africa clips where the lion hunts cape buffalo and the buffalo realize that one or two lions can actually be made to run scared if the entire herd of buffalo turn on the lions. Awesome camera work!
Talk about getting overwhelmed. The very meaning itself.
Wow. That was astonishing. Thanks 👍🏻 A lesson from mother nature...
Yeah, you just keep swimming, man. Just keep swimming. - Seals.
Hopefully humans can learn from this...there's WAY more of us then there are of 'them'....
I’m impressed that worked. Good job seals
Drones have completely changed how these documentaries are made. The footage they can take is incredible and can get in spots no camera could
Probably the most epic thing I've ever seen.
Guys, you are doing such an impressive job capturing these moments!! It's amazing how anytime I think I can't be surprised there is another extraordinary situation in nature.
I am an underwater photopgraher in Canary Islands hoping we had healthier ecosystems. I wonder how many marvelous things I won't be able to see because of how blind we're about what we consider to be "progress".
I'm so glad they're figuring it out.
An individual can't bully a mob.
They are not bullying they are eating to survive just like seal eating fish
I’d watch anything he narrates, spectacular cinematography
Sharks just swims like a boss because it knows patienence and stealth is the key to successful hunt.
It really feels like they’re evolving faster than we thought,
seal together strong
This has to be some of the most impressive great white footage I've ever come across. Dream job right there
"The world's most notorious predator", I guess someone forgot to tell the seals about that distinction.
At some point the sharks are going to try the same thing using their new numbers, and there will be a Shark VS Seal war.
The coolest thing ive seen in a long time.
Amazing footage and photography. Incredible.
My favorite video of all time. Unbelievable.
The seals really said "Knuck If You Buck!" 😂😂😂
nature is just incredible
Big respect to the divers getting this footage….
My guess is the footage is being captured with underwater drones.
@@brianh5844Can the guess be confirmed?
@@saintjabroni I'm sure it could. What I wrote was pure speculation though :).
Blu-ray behind the scenes footage shows that it’s a mixture of drones and cameramen.
It's cgi
I love these creatures, such complexity🐧
Seals together strong
If I was the shark, I would play that I was scared, then suddenly turn around and eat a dozen of seals in just a blink of an eye. 😝
If sharks weren't so vulnerable while they're eating that would be a good plan. But those seals could easily rip through the shark flesh
Awesome 💯... power in numbers and unity
That really is amazing!!
The footage is incredible!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Absolutely an admirer of great whites, but also all in for the underdog so, go seals!!!
Now that was amazing
brother was clutchdumping HARD ..... downright unbeliavable acceleration
Stunning!!! Amazing cinematography
Everyone gangster until they need to be. Brilliant capture and footage!
Absolutely beautiful
Incredible. Just how a bunch if seals can scare away a great white.
This gets my Seal of approval
great white: "the gang better not hear about this...cant believe i got punked by some seals"
The photographers are amazing
That's how you do it: teamwork. Go seals!👍🏻
Power and safety in numbers.
As they bunched up and attacked that one GW I fully expected another GW to take one unsuspecting seal
Always strength in NUMBERS
I don't know who's got the bigger balls: the Seals or the Camera man...?
The title should have been "SHARK" vs seals
Its crazy to think that even for an apex predator like a great white. Hunting and eating isn't easy or even safe. Imagine if all those seals started attacking his gills. It could be game over for the shark.
It's not an apex predator, killer whales frequently seek them out for their delicious livers.
@@Luton-Mick killer whales hunt in packs, sharks are solitary. It's easy to hunt in numbers against one.
Coming from the combat special forces side of things, this can happen literally in any situation in combat, especially in unconventional warfare so its completely arrogance to think the comventional hunter cant be the hunted.
Cgi helps, good old fashioned propaganda, sure you know all about that.
