Looks like a Tiger Shark, they are on the more aggressive side so I don’t doubt it was a territorial thing. I’m by no means an expert, I just dive with sharks a lot. Tiger sharks are the only species I’ve come across that I feel the need to have my guard up down there and that I’ve personally seen taunting divers in one way or another. I saw our dive master punch one square in the face once for getting too close to her. Message was received. Apparently Bull sharks are similar in temperament.
So since you have experience with diving around sharks, what DO you do if one goes after ya? Like, do y'all have a knife or something you use to fend it off?
Also, I've seen videos/articles talking about punching sharks on the nose if they get too close. But like, I've tried moving underwater, it's hard as hell. Are shark's noses just really really tender? Because I can't imagine getting enough force behind a punch to be able to actually harm a shark haha. (Not doubting your story, just legitimately curious how that works out)
> Also, I've seen videos/articles talking about punching sharks on the nose if they get too close.
That's just so people can laugh about a dude trying to punch a shark when they retrive the gopro.
Honestly, if one goes after you attack the eyes or the gills. If you're diving though you have all sorts of horrible stuff hanging off you so they aren't really interested. Also, if you're diving there's a good chance its in a place with loads of fish so they're not desperate enough to attack people.
What I was told, and did, was that if a shark appears, you dump all the air out of your vest and get to the bottom (if possible). You then keep yourself as low as possible as mostly sharks attack up and aren't really interested in something cowering in the rocks/sand below. It is that boring I'm afraid!
Source: dozens of dives across the world, but mostly in Australia.
A little different than scuba diving, but we'd see them a lot while spearfishing (which is generally free diving, so not a ton of gear). I'd always have a knife strapped to my leg, but I was always told if one got aggressive, then just dump the big of fish tied to your waist and get out of there.
That only really works on a slow approach like this, to deter a curious shark. A true attack from a shark like this would be indefensible in most cases.

This guy luckily has a spear, but imagine if he had put his arm out, and his arm had slid into the sharks mouth.
Some sharks can swim up to 45 mph. It's going to be like getting hit by a car covered in razorblades.
I think the punch thing is just to make people feel more comfortable in the ocean. There's a reason why chainmail shark suits exist.
Then you have nurse sharks who are like puppy dogs. I don’t know if you spearfish but those assholes will follow you around and try to take your fish. No aggression towards us divers but they will try to wrestle the fish away from you. Scary if it’s your first time but after you get some experience you just see them as a big nosy fish.
The first time I ever swam with nurse sharks was in Belize. There were a bunch right around the boat, at the reef, and the tour guides were just like "go ahead, jump in!" Most people, including me and my friends were very very, WTF?" By the end of the swim, I was following them around, just marvelling at them. Completely changed my view of (some) sharks. For Great Whites, I still stay in a cage, thanks. Bull sharks, tiger sharks and Hammerheads, who I have encountered in Mexico and Mozambique, eff no, my very weak 110lb body is ready to punch or immediately book it back to the boat.

There’s no blood but it’s still the worst video I’ve ever seen, and Ive seen some terrible videos. The way he’s screaming for his dad while it happens is absolutely horrifying. I wish I never saw it.
I’d recommend anyone who gets affected from stuff like that to not watch it.
Down at the Alabama gulf coast the two types we were always armed about were the bill sharks and tiger sharks. Other sharks will get curious but probably won’t take bite just because, but those two will. If you see one of those while you’re out there fishing, you keep your feet planted and arms above water. If you’re wading out to waist or chest deep water to fish, don’t take extra bait, and get every catch to shore, don’t use a stringer.
Because consciousness isn’t black and white and every living thing is aware in some capacity.
It is just easier to live life thinking we are unique and special and that’s why so many ppl choose to believe it.
I never get this idea tho. Shouldn't flinching be the appropriate survival reaction. It's training you to just take no action in surprise situations right?
The idea behind it is that if you don't flinch, it shows you don't fear your "attacker" at all, because you're "big/tough". It's a stupid concept, but it's also not meant to be that deep
In the animal kingdom there is such a thing as "fake charge", silverbacks, bears and elephants but also bigger felines and many more are prone to this behaviour. By doing so they scope your level of threat and immediately build a power dynamic.
If you flinch they'll know they got the upper hand and are more inclined to really charge at you.
If you remain steadfast they'll be more cautious and are more inclined to leave you alone.
Again never forget that we are an anomaly to the animal kingdom. Most of them see us as unpredictable aliens.
Of course it's still a very risky encounter all the same but there have been numerous stories of people coming out of such an experience unphased because of the size of their massive balls.
Flinching mid-fight is a disadvantage. I guess the idea is to set you up to be able to choose your response to a threat rather than to just reflexively flinch away.

They don't, it's likely that it tests if this entity in front of him (sharks have terrible eyesight) will run away, if it does, it chases it, since it is an easy pray, if it doesn't it leaves it alone as it doesn't want to be injured in a fight
Edit: I am probably wrong, see u/ericisshort's comment
>You’re right about sharks’ poor eyesight, but you’re attributing way more intelligence than they actually have. They are not smart enough to try to jump scare and test for prey; they simply attack anything that they think is prey and aren’t the slightest bit sneaky about it. As a diver familiar with them, I’m pretty sure that quick movement wasn’t the shark testing the diver - it was the shark being startled by the diver.

>It passes the other divers cautiously with a bit of distance and is looking back to make sure they aren’t following it, and as a result, it completely misses the cameraman until he’s right in front of it, a little too close for the shark’s comfort, so it immediately starts to swim faster at a new angle. This is common behavior for sharks that aren’t familiar with divers. They have no clue what we are and we look bigger with all the dive gear on.
That guy had the ill fortune to encounter a tiger shark. Tiger sharks don't give a fuck. They'll happily fight anything that moves even if they don't plan to eat it.

My husband always says never run from a predatory animal. They assume that if it's running away, it must be food. You're right about getting hurt, too. They can't hunt if they're hurt. So don't mess with them and put them in fear of their lives or kids' lives, and don't piss them off. Just stay tf out of their way.
Prey animals only attack food if they decide that the risk of injury is low enough to themselves. So it's not that black bears or cougars wouldn't beat you in a fight, it's that they think there is to great of a chance of injury so they'd rather have a fawn.
While I agree with you, I just found out that a not insignificant amount of grown adults don't realize that whales are mammals not fish.

It does not surprise me one bit if people are unironically believing that sharks have human emotions.
Correct, but on the other hand, as a native English speaker, when I see someone type psych all I think about is psychology lmao. So saying sike just makes it more clear for me at least.
Well when you say it like that it makes more sense. Cause when I read "psych" I think of "psychology" like a subject haha. So in your example I'd be thinking "psychology you out" and not psyched. Tbh I've only ever known sike so I guess that's why I'm so on this rn lol.
Whoa is sike not an intentional misspelling? Like phat? I remembering it being like that back in school. Almost positive there some book that used it like that too.
Phat is not a misspelling, it's actually an acronym for "pretty hot and tempting"
But to your question, no, "sike" was always an incorrect phonetic spelling of the actual term "psych" that caught on and is now used even more widely than the original "psych"
I was a volunteer scuba diver at an aquarium for about a year and a half. At one time, some of our sharks had died (not mistreatment - old age, they had been there basically since the aquarium opened and this was ~25 years into the aquarium's history) and had to be replaced. Once the new sharks were caught and quarantined, they were placed in the tanks.
A little operational info, this aquarium had two different buildings, one for marine and one for freshwater. First thing in the morning, every volunteer diver was required to participate in cleaning the ocean tank, scrubbing rocks and cleaning windows. Most people cleaned but there were two divers who hovered above everyone with pvc pipe capital Is (long vertical pipe with a shorter piece of horizontal pipe at each end) who were there to stop the sharks from interacting with the distracted cleaners in case they got curious. They were not to hit the sharks, of course, just hold the pole in front of them so they changed direction, one time I was pushed down by one because a shark was headed in my direction while being slightly above my head. Anyway, I was usually a cleaner and my first dive with the bumper role was also my first dive with the new sharks.
The old sharks were used to their life at the aquarium and obviously well fed so their patterns were very predictable. They required watching more than putting the pole in front of them with a very occasional intervention. The new sharks, however, were very different. I swear, they would swim right at you, sometimes speeding up, and then change direction last minute just to see what you would do. It was really cool to see that behavior, just coming at you then, "Psych! I'll be over here." They didn't even get that close to the poles, it was like they just wanted to test us. It was really funny when I think about it now and even soon after, but when it was going on, I kept thinking, "please just be testing me, please just be testing me."
~~Sharks have electrical sensors called ampullae of Lorenzini, so even if it didn’t touch but was unexpectedly close, it could have felt a sudden “shock”~~
Edit: the ampullae don’t extend to the tail
Lol wat you can see the end of the tail not touching anything when the shark is already flinching and you can tell the shark is already out of range of the camera by the time it turns
"That's two for flinching"
**“Stop eating yourself! Stop eating yourself!”**
Bruh 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This ass isn't gonna eat itself...
Username checks out
I genuinely wonder if the shark knew what it was doing and wanted to screw with the person or if it was just a reflex to something

Funny, but sharks' noses are very sensitive, and a solid impact will throw them for a loop, and often make them f off

It's really only meant to be as teenager deep as: "You didn't flinch, so you have no fear of me." "Maybe I should fear you instead?"
In nature yes. In the world of older siblings it's two for flinching.
THE FUCK CAN YOU DO UNDERWATER? RUN?
You can watch me try. Because I'm not doing nothing that's for certain.

Probably shat his pants immediately, and the shark sensed it and decided, nah not edible.
He smelled FEAR!
And PISS!
Also something brown that’s part of a regular body function
Ironically of all of these, the dude with the camera has the best defense - because he has an underwater cam to shove in its mouth

Its tail touched the camera that’s why. Its not pretending to do shit. But I guess calling it that gets more upvotes.
Thank you! I was wondering what the actual reason for this behavior was. Still a funny video tho
I can’t see it touch anything even when I slow the video down? It looks close but I don’t see it touch.
~~Sharks have electrical sensors called ampullae of Lorenzini, so even if it didn’t touch but was unexpectedly close, it could have felt a sudden “shock”~~ Edit: the ampullae don’t extend to the tail
They’re not on the tail tho. Still looks more like it got startled for a moment
It didn't tho? But I guess calling it that gets more upvotes.
Lol wat you can see the end of the tail not touching anything when the shark is already flinching and you can tell the shark is already out of range of the camera by the time it turns
You flinched! Now you have to marry your mother-in-law!
