Maybe, maybe not, but apparently it's the largest ever recorded.
- estimated to be 50 years old - 20 feet long - 5,000 pounds

with so much ocean unexplored I bet that's a small one

i doubt that. given the current relationship between us and the ocean, i'm not surprised we haven't found a lot of sharks that size. it's not common for them to get to that size. there's been some reports of finding them just over 20ft in the past, but you hear about those in old shark hunting stories.

plus, white sharks aren't known to be in areas of the ocean at depths we haven't had a lot of experience exploring. iirc

chumming is gonna bring out every damned shark though. its better to go to where you think the shark likes to be, and offer him what you know he wants (a good sized bonito or whitefish, or maybe a small shark of some kind)

Pretty sure they actually have a seal cutout tied to a rope, and they drag it behind boats in south africa.

God, swimming across that bay is literal suicide if all it takes is a dragging a foam seal across the surface by boat.

i had a dream about sharks last night cuz of this thread..
i was swimming in the ocean or some shit and suddenly this huge shark shows up, i immediately shit my pants(in the dream.. thank gawd), but anyway what was interesting was that as soon as i spotted it i swam deep down into the ocean floor, and it couldn't get me there.. then i swam back up when it disappeared and i got the fuck out of the water pronto
i've had numerous dreams of swimming with sharks, sometimes it's alligators, or crocs, wutever, but as scared as i am i never seem to panic, and am usually able to make it out of the water unscathed..

I had a dream last night I was a quarterback. I would have a receiver wide open 40 yards downfield...and I would cock back to launch the ball as far as I could -- and it would only go like 2 yards.
I played like an entire game in my dream. And each time I would try to throw it as hard as I could, so hard that I would damn near throw my arm out of socket...yet it would still only go like a fucking yard or two.
I bet my teammates in the dream wanted to beat my ass.

gravity is so interesting in the dream realm
it's like when u dream about fighting someone, u can never hit them no matter how hard u try, always feels like ur arms way a ton, or when u're walking on the side walk or sum shit, u feel as if ur feet are made of stone and every step takes every fiber of ur being..

Yep. Had lots of dreams where I was running from something, running as hard as I possibly fucking could -- but going like 0.2 MPH

Yeah I'm sure there are too.
71% of the world is water, with most of that being the ocean. And we study such a small fraction of it that we don't even scratch the surface.
That's a big ass great white -- but there's bigger out there.
