Saw one on Oceanic whitetip sharks as well. Quite eye opening. Due to our rare interactions with them, they do not have the rep some of the coastal sharks do but they are considered by many to be the most dangerous shark to man because they attack with he simple intent to eat you, not investigatory strike, kill and eat. Jacque Cousteau always held these to be the most dangerous sharks to be in the water with.


Those were the sharks that got all the sailors from the USS Indianapolis.

Yep. I think Whitetips were the sharks sailors have feared the most for quite some time.
