Small Boat Rams Into Great White Shark Head On

In this video, I share a variety of interactions between boats and great white sharks, including one accidental boat strike on a shark larger than the boat itself.
A vast majority of boat owners are good people, with a true appreciation for nature, but a very small minority could probably improve their approach to respecting nature.
Some folks have often claimed that sharks can't get struck by boats simply because they either move out of the way or hear the boat long before it strikes. This video proves otherwise. We also examine the protections put into place for whales and how boats approach them versus how boats approach sharks within a nursery.

I'm NOT a marine biologist or naturalist. As with all YouTube content, I encourage independent verification of facts via official scientific and trustworthy sources. I will strive to post citations for any information I discuss here whenever possible. My goal is to use photography and drones to bring awareness to wildlife and the nature around us. I welcome collaborations with scientists to bring cinematic elements to the educational presentation.
