use your brain and dont do shit your friends dare you to do
he jumped of a cruise ship and people theorize that he got eaten by a shark
nevermind the fact that he jumped near the wake of the ship and he probably caught up to it and got entagled into a few tons of water being pushed on his body
Tldr he just drowned, shark attacks don't look like that
I'm honestly they surprised they don't blame the cruise ship for (legally) serving the guy alcohol.
Usually these parents frantically try to blame some other human for their children's mistakes and hope for a pay day.
Sharks probably got him, if not in the video after the ship left him behind.
Sharks swarm cruise ships because the thirdies that staff them throw all the food waste overboard.

A tiger had 600 kills in India, and half of them were after they had sent the Army after it like GTA. Kitty had gotten a taste for human after having a tooth shot out so she knew exactly what the capabilities of gun toting humans were and how to bypass them. Some famous Jumanji motherfricker finally tracked her down after months and got a lucky shot off after she baited him into an ambush.
Those were Lions and it was in Africa
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ghost_and_the_Darkness
>Although Patterson claimed the lions were responsible for up to 135 deaths, a peer-reviewed paper on man-eating lions and the circumstances surrounding this notorious event states that about 28–31 killings can be verified (Kerbis Peterhans & Gnoske, 2001). However, one underlying assumption of the study was that the lions would eat all of the edible meat on a victim. In other words, the study's conclusion was that the lions ate the equivalent of 28-31 whole people. This obviously does not take into account that some victims may have been killed and either partially eaten or not eaten at all.

Did you watch the one of the Russian guy who actually was killed by a shark?
yeahp was a medium sized tiger shark too, not even a great white. Imagine a great white world have cut him entirely in half with a single blow like that one.
That’s how great whites kill. They either chomp off limbs or hit you at max speed to knock you out before the start feasting
It’s how they kill seals and whales. Go for the propulsion system

Tiger shark is still pretty awful. They have unique double serrated teeth that they use to cut through sea turtle shells. Tiger's actually have a higher fatality rate per bite than great whites from people just bleeding out.
I try to dodge shit like that now. I was a live leak kid and I’m starting to have a chicken egg scenario with regards to mental illness and horrific vids. I’ll take your word that it was awful.
Note how he's the only one in the water? This beach is closed at certain times because of the likely hood of shark attack (they feed almost on a schedule), and this dipshit thought he was too good for the rules.
I've run into Tiger sharks in Hawaii, and they're just another big fish, but if you're out there during their hunting window, you're just meat, especially if you're alone.

well we are like the zombie apocalypse, easy to kill but do unimaginable damage. China in particular is killing our ocean on a scale that is extinction level from the yellow sea to Ecuador they just kill and eat everything.
if the world would take ecology seriously, they would just nuke china. Frick that place and what they do to our planet
noooooo this is globalzog propaganda you must kill everything non-human on the planet they're actually demons trying to turn your kids gay are you some kind of greta or something?
Their noses are packed with electronic sensors, radars and all sorts of location/sensing technology so they like the feeling of metal rubbing against because it creates a buzzing feel.
This us exactly why I wouldn't have my paddle in the water and why I'd have a nasty fish whacker and a handgun onboard. You lose your paddle because some butthole bull or tiger shark knocks it loose you're gonna have a bad time. Bet that fricker hung around for a while after that too. That sure as shit wasn't a test bite. If you can't do shit if/when he tries again you'll end up in the water with him.
There's been cases where sharks severed steel cable and the amount of force in that hit is titanic. If the cable doesn't fail the plastic bracket or cleat it's likely tied to sure could. Having it onboard and secured is the safest option. Our hero on the kayak is lucky the shark caught something instead of just sliding down the whole side and likely taking his paddle off in the process.
>That sure as shit wasn't a test bite.
The shark was homing in on the electrical signals, but disengaged when it realized the kayak isn't food, contrary to what his electrical sense had indicated. It was an accident.
A full force "accident". It meant to eat the kayak until it realized it was getting nothing. Just because it was an "accident" doesn't mean it wasn't going in for the kill. It's also entirely possible that shark learned to associate kayaks with the meat that sits on them but that is less likely than simple misidentification. If the kayaker had fallen in or started making the water turbulent he'd have definitely come back for a snack.
Sharks will try to eat anything at least once. I've even heard of one found that tried to swallow a live torpedo.
would it be possible he'd come back around again, or do they have the ability to flag signals as false?
Their natural sensor suite is probably good enough to identify specific things around them but they don't know what it is until they find out. If it looks like it might be food and feels like it might be food good shot they'll at least take a test bite, but sometimes they just commit to making a kill without the test. Sometimes they'll just swim by and do absolutely nothing. Sometimes they bite the shit out of your kayak and make you think "Thank frick my foot wasn't right there!"
If the shark had meant to dislodge the man in the kayak, he would have kept up the attack. He meant to eat the kayak itself, then stopped when he realized it wasn't food.
That's why I said it was less likely. Read the post before replying. Stop trying to white knight for the shark against every possible slight, she's not going to frick you bro.
If we want to go down the rabbit hole though it's also possible the shark had tried it before and gotten clubbed for trying too for too long. Could have simply come in from the wrong angle to get it's treat. Though we'd likely have seen articles about a shark specifically hunting kayakers. Again, it's a lot less likely but it is possible.

this scenario is ridiculous. divers swim with sharks all the time and sharks don't eat them. sharks trying to sink boats to eat people is movie fantasy.

Do you not understand what the words "less likely" mean anon? Also they don't have to sink the boat, they have to knock the kayaker off. Predators are smart enough to learn things like that. Is it common? No. Can they figure out there's a meat thing there if they can just knock it in the water and start trying to do that when they see those things? Absolutely.
Divers directly take advantage of the sharks learning. Those sharks in the popular tourist spots know there's free fish and that the strange large black fish will give it to them. They also know there's a good chance they'll get their skin rubbed. At those dive spots you're basically in the same bracket as cleaner fish.
Shark repellent can actually be made from shark flesh, great whites can smell miles away when another great white is killed. There have been recorded cases of tagged individuals dropping below orca depth and gunning across the pacific after an orca killed a great white.
>smell from miles away one of your own got eaten >immediately take a vacation in an entirely different ocean
I wonder how you would make a "shark repellent". Maybe just a canister of shark flesh?
There are a handful of vids of dudes fending of sharks, even great whites with spear guns but there not at night. Night sounds like a really bad idea to get in the water.
It really is very odd that sea life doesn't hurt us more. If a pike would want to take a quick cheeky nibble of my thigh there's not that much I could do. I don't understand the evolutionary incentives that makes them avoid us naturally as opposed to land animals where all the ones without the genes for instinctual fear got fricking obliterated. When did we ever hunt Moray eels?
Attacking another animal is super dangerous. Even a small wound can lead to death in the wild. Because of that most predators are extremely cautious about what they're willing to attack.
Better to frick off and find something you know you can kill and eat, than risk your life against an unknown foe.
Also for some marine animals, humans are pretty much inedible. For example afaik great white sharks would literally starve if they ate humans, as we're not fatty enough. So most shark "attacks", are just them trying to figure out what the frick the thing splashing around is. Quick bite to gain info, then frick off to a safe distance.
Also I might be wrong but I don't think land animals have some "special" fear of humans. It's just the same thing of, "don't attack the unknown, just in case the unknown can kill you".
Humans standing upright also makes us seem way bigger than we actually are, so predators will be especially cautious.
Swim knife. Any old folder you don't use, clip it to the pocket of your trunks. Make sure the clip is bent to be strong enough to stay on in the water, or put it in a zippered pocket.
I follow what the Seikhs do, always carry a weapon even if it's just a knife. Humans don't stand a chance in a fight against certain animals, but it helps to have one big ass tooth to bite them with.
There's no way he unironically jumped into the open ocean at night because of a fricking dare, a toddler would know that's certain death. It has to have been some sort of cover up, like his "friends" pushed him off, realized they fricked up, started recording and tried to make it seem like he jumped on his own accord.
Exactly. It would take a complete autistic moron to not understand how a young man, drunk and with friends, might voluntarily do something suicidally stupid.

>There's no way he unironically jumped into the open ocean at night because of a fricking dare
Have you ever talked to an 18-23 year old guy? They're easily the most moronic people in the world. Add alcohol on top of that and of course this fricking idiot drowned himself.
I remember, back when I was really young and mildly obsessed with sharks, that bull sharks were considered the most dangerous, at least in terms of likelihood of attacking. Depending on the source, I wanna say it was chocked up to either their tolerance for fresh water meaning encounters were more likely, that their eyesight was poor and so it was easier for them to attack people mistakenly, or that they were just plain mean. Is this true? Or is there another species better to be feared?
Bull sharks are most likely to attack people because they hunt in shallow, murky water, like the surf zone at the beach where sand is all stirred up by wave and human action, and their hunting style is “bite first, ask questions later”, so they get a lot of waders in the leg or the arm or whatever. They are still pretty aggressive in open water (in terms of their willingness to approach and test you), but generally respect spearfishermen (I’ve never lost a fish to a shark after I pulled it up to me, but if you spear a fish and leave it dangle, them and lemon sharks will rob you blind, they call them the “Taxman” for a reason).
Lemons and nurse sharks are also pretty fearless around people and will try and steal your catch if you don’t secure it, but I’ve popped up from checking a coral head for grouper and head butted a lemon shark right in the mouth and I think he was more startled than I was.
Reef sharks are buttholes, but not really dangerous unless you’re diving alone. Most of the real danger is related to bad line management, if you spear something and a shark gets it before you can, you’d better hope you didn’t accidentally wrap your line around your arm or something.
Tiger sharks interrupt your hunt though, you have to spend enough focus on keeping track of a tiger shark that it’s difficult to spear fish. Best to just calmly watch him until he gets bored and fricks off.
Great whites, I’ve never seen while spear fishing, but I have gone cage diving and then later open water diving with them, and it was really cool. They’re there to try and get some easy tuna chunks from the dive operator and they are about as interested in you as a manatee, legitimately it just seems to be curiosity. If it’s a calm day without a lot of competition from other sharks, the few you get will approach very close between trips to the bait rope, and they seem to appreciate a good scratch on the side.
why would i? did this random chump on vacation have any say in russian foreign policy? were all the beheaded US civilians truly responsible for the iraqi invasion after all?
CO2 knife: https://blade-city.com/blogs/gun-knife-blog/wasp-injection-knife
now, a story:
The Soviet military equipped trained dolphins with a similar device to use
on divers who infiltrated their shipyards. It would inject so much CO2 into a person their organs would explode out their orifices, and float
to the surface so they could gather intelligence from their corpses. The dolphins are trained to ram it into human shaped dummies with their
snout
A problem arose the first time it was used on an actual person. The dolphins were apparently
horrified by the results of using it and would not wear the device after seeing a human brutally inflated in this fashion.
The
problem was circumvented by a change to the device. The CO2 injector was put on a timer and made to detach after the dolphin stabbed it into
the diver. A new set of dolphins were trained to ram it into a diver, then immediately swim away so they didn't witness what happened when the
CO2 was injected.
Think how moronic it sounds when someone says a Shark can smell blood from a mile away.
Are you telling me blood traveles in a current that far?
I can understand a Dog and wind.
But water is not the same medium.
Pour dye in a bottle and that dye will spread everywhere.

>What's the best weapon to protect yourself from sharks in open water at night?

Sharks don't attack people, it's dolphins that you have to worry about.
I remember, back when I was really young and mildly obsessed with sharks, that bull sharks were considered the most dangerous, at least in terms of likelihood of attacking. Depending on the source, I wanna say it was chocked up to either their tolerance for fresh water meaning encounters were more likely, that their eyesight was poor and so it was easier for them to attack people mistakenly, or that they were just plain mean. Is this true? Or is there another species better to be feared?
Bull sharks are most likely to attack people because they hunt in shallow, murky water, like the surf zone at the beach where sand is all stirred up by wave and human action, and their hunting style is “bite first, ask questions later”, so they get a lot of waders in the leg or the arm or whatever. They are still pretty aggressive in open water (in terms of their willingness to approach and test you), but generally respect spearfishermen (I’ve never lost a fish to a shark after I pulled it up to me, but if you spear a fish and leave it dangle, them and lemon sharks will rob you blind, they call them the “Taxman” for a reason).
Lemons and nurse sharks are also pretty fearless around people and will try and steal your catch if you don’t secure it, but I’ve popped up from checking a coral head for grouper and head butted a lemon shark right in the mouth and I think he was more startled than I was.
Reef sharks are buttholes, but not really dangerous unless you’re diving alone. Most of the real danger is related to bad line management, if you spear something and a shark gets it before you can, you’d better hope you didn’t accidentally wrap your line around your arm or something.
Tiger sharks interrupt your hunt though, you have to spend enough focus on keeping track of a tiger shark that it’s difficult to spear fish. Best to just calmly watch him until he gets bored and fricks off.
Great whites, I’ve never seen while spear fishing, but I have gone cage diving and then later open water diving with them, and it was really cool. They’re there to try and get some easy tuna chunks from the dive operator and they are about as interested in you as a manatee, legitimately it just seems to be curiosity. If it’s a calm day without a lot of competition from other sharks, the few you get will approach very close between trips to the bait rope, and they seem to appreciate a good scratch on the side.

He cheered it on online.
He was 23 and with his father and gf and when interviewed his father was like, well what could I do
CO2 knife: https://blade-city.com/blogs/gun-knife-blog/wasp-injection-knife
now, a story:
The Soviet military equipped trained dolphins with a similar device to use
on divers who infiltrated their shipyards. It would inject so much CO2 into a person their organs would explode out their orifices, and float
to the surface so they could gather intelligence from their corpses. The dolphins are trained to ram it into human shaped dummies with their
snout
A problem arose the first time it was used on an actual person. The dolphins were apparently
horrified by the results of using it and would not wear the device after seeing a human brutally inflated in this fashion.
The
problem was circumvented by a change to the device. The CO2 injector was put on a timer and made to detach after the dolphin stabbed it into
the diver. A new set of dolphins were trained to ram it into a diver, then immediately swim away so they didn't witness what happened when the
CO2 was injected.
Standing on the deck of a boat. Or better standing on the shore.
Think how moronic it sounds when someone says a Shark can smell blood from a mile away.
Are you telling me blood traveles in a current that far?
I can understand a Dog and wind.
But water is not the same medium.
Pour dye in a bottle and that dye will spread everywhere.
