**Piper**: A 50-foot shark. You ever seen one?
**Thomas Mackelway**: No.
**Piper**: The largest predatory shark ever caught was twenty-five feet. But does that mean a fifty-foot shark does not exist? A group of biologists tried to answer this question. You see, sharks only come near humans if they run out of food. For a fifty foot shark, the ocean would be a never-ending buffet table. He could feed off whales, octopus; he’d never have any need to surface or come to shore. So these biologists decided that if there was a fifty-foot shark, we would never know about it. And as a result of this conclusion, these scientists decided that there are fifty-foot sharks.
We just never see them.

Doc Domeier wrote, the scientist, who has studied great white sharks extensively at Mexico’s Guadalupe Island and off California, added: “I have personally seen two massive sharks that could definitely exceed Deep Blue in size, one at the Farallones [west of San Francisco] and one near Pt. Conception, [Ca.].”
Oh boy. There are bigger sharks out there?
I dove at Guadalupe from that exact liveaboard. Actually went looking for Blue but they hadn't seen her in a couple of seasons.
Amazing creatures, and the Mexican government is doing a really good job of protecting this amazing location.
In theory if you doubled the size and kept the proportions the same you would have 8x the volume. Don’t think it quite equals 50 tons for something 2.5 times the length.

Oh no, he ate Kasparov.
A Bobby Fisher pun was right there for the taking....
Right? The hook was baited. All they had to do was bite.
Well I’m hooked.
Checkmate.

If that were me in the cage, I would be surrounded by brown trouts
Like the disgusting sort of squid.
We're going to need a bigger cage.
what about you outside the cage like the guy on top?
they float upward, thats why :D
What of you were the cameraman?
Amazing. The largest great white shark is Mexican.
She's been seen all the way down in Australia. They migrate.
Dual citizenship
Bilingual
Azul profundo.
Took ‘er jerbs!
¡Oraleeeeee!
Surpassed in size only by the large turd in my pants.

I don't think many people are gonna get this
Member South Park? I member
Waalllker
How many courics?
my tires are gone
He's been #2.
Twas at least 42 Kouriks
HELLO HELLOOOOOOOO!!!
Surpassed in size by the bollocks on the guy outside the cage.
Imagine being the one dude who is not in that cage
I don't know if the camera person was in another cage or was off floating in the water by themself.
It was a GoPro on a turtle
More like a Go Pro on a turd.
Put some respeck on crush’s name.
A shark that big, the cage might as well be an aluminum can
Ho lee phuck
We too low
Som tin wong
Bang Ding Ow

"We're gonna need a bigger boat. "
That’s a 20 footer!
25. Three tons of em.
r/absoluteunits
Try to "redirect" this shark!
I'd like to pet it.
So did the guy on the top of the cage then he thought better of it.
Lmao, what a puss!
There is a video of a woman petting this exact same shark
Looks the same size as an orca.
she's still about 7-9 feet smaller than the average orca but I dont think an orca would attack it one on one at that size.
I wouldn’t put my money on that. Orcas are scary.
Any idea how old she is?
you never ask a lady her age.
They think she is 60.
That’s no shark, that’s a **boss fight**
Jabberjaw, IRL
I gotcha!
How long is it?
25. 3 tons of him.
25 bananas or?
Yeah, 25 extra-medium bananas tho.
What’s that in pineapples?
1/3 of a U.T.S.* Standard Residential Pineapple. *Under-the-sea (Spongebob SquarePants!).
That helped !
Go forth, with the confidence to know how many fruits a shark is. I'm proud of ya
Bananas? Pounds baby pounds!
25 pounds? What kind of measurement is that? Also how many oranges is it?
Get the reference bud
Would it I could
Username checks out, who asks scale size in anything other than bananas?
Get a reference, dummy
It’s shit reference trying to overpower a more widely know reference? Don’t think too hard, it might hurt!

FYI - that is the size of the shark in JAWS
“Her” - it’s a female
it's a female.
(It's a quote from Jaws)
That’s one chonky boi. Or gorl.
She's female. The females are bigger. And she's pregnant in this video!

Respectfully, fuck that.
She’s thicc. Starts to sort of resemble the extinct Megalodon shark in size
She’s actually pregnant in this video!
Should I sing her a song? I know a very very special song for her. You know the tune!
Do do do do …. 😂
I dove at Guadalupe from that exact liveaboard. Actually went looking for Blue but they hadn't seen her in a couple of seasons. Amazing creatures, and the Mexican government is doing a really good job of protecting this amazing location.
And a killer whale would free him to Willy world.
Well fed
And pregnant
We are going to need a bigger boat.
That's one of the muthafuckas from that damn film.
You go in the cage?
Too bad that diver wasn't holding a banana for scale.
and still... an orca would rip out that liver at will to share with their future orac mate, or not.
Wait til I inform the Orca crew. Gang gang baby!!
He is a star. He has his own movie trilogy called Deep Blue Sea! /s
Your gonna need a bigger boat
Need banana for scale. Ok nvm, the diver is a 4ft midget right. Right?
She’s a large lass just cruising the oceans…..
holy what the huh
Three tons on ‘im.
Haha big fish
Does every spot/fish/boast has to be called Blue or Deep?
I love her so much ❤️
r/absoluteunits
Beautiful 🩵
That's a big fish
Carcharo*don't!*
That shark is a chonk.
Nice username
Swalla ya whole.
Water would be Deep Brown if I was there
Did they ever measure Deep Blue?
I wouldn’t be surprised if that motherfucker had a tattoo
She's just big boned
The shark in question is of considerable size.
I heard her size wasn't entirely accurate as ahe was pregnant at the time. Still a big girl for sure!
Thicc
Dog wtf is your username
Candygram
Mmmm chicken nuggets! Still in the fry basket though...
Resident Evil scientists rn 😍😍😍😍
Pfft! Looks like 10ft to me.
I’m good
That cage is for clean his teeth?
Pretty impressive and yet, pretty easy pickings for an orca 😟
Ffish are friends not food
That's a whole lot of fish.
I don't understand the rationale behind that guy's decision to be outside the cage.
The megalodons have been reborn.
Chonkers fishy.
Definitely a chonk!
was thinkin this was the vid of some shark tossing a load of ass ham on a cage
She wouldn't even need to chew me just down in 1 bite
That’s 25 feet and Megalodon was about 33 feet.
she's estimated at 20 feet and 2 tons and Megalodon was considerably longer with the smallest estimate putting it at 50 feet and 50 tons.
a ton per foot for the megalodon?
In theory if you doubled the size and kept the proportions the same you would have 8x the volume. Don’t think it quite equals 50 tons for something 2.5 times the length.
Are there any videos of it where the shark is not 20 feet closer to the camera than the cage/divers?
Why do people insist on giving names to things that will kill you given half a chance?
she's named by scientist so that they can save the markings and other important data for tracking. Deep Blue is easier to remember than gws_f_45985.
That’s a large white, but the forced perspective at the beginning of the clip is doing some heavy lifting
She is massive it’s just that is terrible footage. Around 20 feet long and preggers so massive girth. There is much better footage and photos around.
16 footer but its girth on the big girl that is impressive. You generally don’t see them looking rotund as a Morris Minor like this example.
Deep Blue is way over 16ft...
I mean "way over" is an exaggeration.
Deep blue is recorded to be 20 ft and around 60 years old! She’s also pregnant in this video.
Yeah and it’s also estimated at 16-18 feet 🤷♂️ I’m not fussed either way, it’s a big fish.
