They Were In A Tiny Boat Surrounded By Hungry Great White Sharks. The Result Is Terrifying!
Some ideas are better left untested. That is the lesson a film crew received when they attempted to attach a GoPro camera to a massive six meter (about 19.5 feet) great white shark. The Discovery Channel film crew were shooting footage for a documentary called Lair of the Megashark off the coast of New Zealand’s Stewart Island. Wanting to get unique shots and a shark’s eye view, they decided to strap the hi-tech camera onto the dorsal fin of the deadly ocean predator.
Two shark experts, Jeff Kurr and Andy Casagrande, had bravely gone out in a small dinghy that was tethered by a single flimsy rope to the larger main boat. Once out on the open water things went quickly downhill. After trying unsuccessfully to attach the gadget to the shark, who was having none of it, the great white turned on them and attacked their dangerously inadequate boat.
He charges and destabilizes the small craft with his tail, causing it to lurch unsteadily in the water. Then, he breaches the surface jaws first to bite at the thin rope connecting the two boats. For a few brief seconds he is gone but he reappears to go after the bait that sits between the two boats.
During the drama one man can be heard saying “I don’t think this is such a brilliant f*****g idea you know.” Video shows the two men in the dinghy trying to stay calm and safely inside as the huge shark thrashes about dangerously upsetting it.
Soon after, the crew decided it was way too unsafe for them to be on the water, in such a small boat, while massive hungry sharks were behaving so aggressively. Thankfully, no person or shark was injured in the filming and the crew abandoned attempts to attach the GoPro. What a crazy, heart pounding, panic inducing moment that must have been!

Video: It Was A Calm Beautiful Day At The Beach. But What This Camera Caught Is Terrifying!
The Siberian region in Russia is not exactly known for having many hot sunny days that merit a relaxing trip to the beach. When such weather does present itself people naturally flock to the waters edge to cool off. On one particular occasion, people in the southwestern Siberian city of Novosibirsk were enjoying the sand and water, when a cold front suddenly rolled in.
Temperatures reportedly dropped from 41 to 21 degrees Celsius (about 106 down to 70 degrees Fahrenheit) in a matter of minutes. Strong winds picked up and, before anyone could gather their friends and family to pack up the beach gear and head home, hail began to rain down from the sky.
A man and woman recorded the storm and off camera can be heard commenting in Russian about how it had been clear, sunny, and perfect just a minute ago. Other beach-goers idly start picking up towels and gathering their belongings. The woman cracks a joke about Siberia and everyone shares a laugh. Then we hear “that’s hail” as it starts to fall from the sky.
Things start to fly by when the wind picks up and the mood changes noticeably from lighthearted to concerned. People come running out of the water as the hail continues to fall down even harder. Everyone heads for shelter and some take cover under water rafts, umbrellas, towels, or whatever they can find to shield and protect their heads and bodies from the golf ball sized ice pellets. The whole scene is chaotic with kids screaming, people running, and debris being picked up and tossed around by the gusty winds.
A few stragglers remain in the water, perhaps trying to beat the icy deluge by staying submerged for as long as possible. One poor woman comes out of the water towards the end of the video, shielding her head with her hands and clearly not happy about the situation. And why would she be?
Imagine being nearly naked and suddenly pelted with balls of ice falling from thousands of feet above. The film cuts off mid-storm, but it appears no one was seriously hurt. To end on a positive note, at least the change in weather cooled everyone off, so they have that to thank the skies above for!

These People Had No Clue About The Danger That Lurked Just Feet Away. When They Realized It’s Scary!
With winter finally over, and temperatures rising, thoughts of summer and the beach may have started crossing your mind. There is no better therapy than beach therapy. The warm sun on your skin, the sand between your toes, and the refreshing ocean water to cool you down.
When going into the ocean we sometimes forget that we are not alone. We are sharing the open water with crustaceans, fish, whales and sharks. Some tourists recently had an extremely horrifying experience. They were enjoying a nice dip in the ocean, and were completely unaware of the danger that lurked beneath the surface of the water. My heart is still racing after watching the video below.
This year when you go on Spring Break or to your local beach always be vigilant and remember, you are never alone in the ocean. Remember safety first and fun second especially while swimming in the ocean at the beach!

It Was A Serene Gorgeous Day For These People At The Beach. Moments Later Wow.
We have a saying in English when things in life go wrong that goes: “It was no day at the beach!” A day at the beach takes you out of the hassles and stress of every day life, and brings you a day of tranquility of water, sun and a kind of otherworldly peace. Before making a plan for a beach day we check the weather forecast to be sure that no rain is predicted. We get all our beach gear together and ride off with high hopes for a frolicking day.
Such was the day that was sunny and beautiful on a beach in Russia, as you will see in the video that you are about to watch below. Riding the waves and enjoying the sunshine, the relaxed people are suddenly startled by “Mother Nature’s” new plans! As we all know weather is capable of changing suddenly, without forewarning, when an unexpected front appears.
What happens in the video below, seems to be sudden rain, as people scurry for their belongings laughing at the unexpected change. However, the mood becomes more dire as they realize that the skies have opened up for something far worse than a rain shower in the middle of a sunny day. People quickly go from laughing to sheer terror as the severity of the weather is anything but funny! I can honestly say that I’ve never seen anything quite like this!!

Woman Starts Hearing Strange Sounds Underneath The Deck, Moments Later It’s Terrifying.

Many people are quick to dismiss raccoons as pesky animals who are a nuisance to have around. They scavenge through composts and dumpsters in search of food scraps tossed out in the trash and often end up leaving a mess behind in their wake. While they may be slovenly, they are also very intelligent animals who have managed to adapt to their human influenced surroundings where many other species have failed.
In fact, their intelligence is what most people fail to take into account and the majority of us don’t understand just how smart raccoons really are. According to ranker.com they are listed as the tenth smartest on the mammal IQ scale. A major part of why they’re so clever has to do with their hands. Their two front paws are incredibly dexterous and they also have thumbs which enable them to use tools and climb stuff much easier.
The main thing that they use their little hands for is grasping stuff, like food. This video shows just how nimble and strangely human-like raccoon paws truly are. It’s kind of freaky but equally as interesting to see the behavior on display here.
The clip starts off with a woman crouched down atop a wooden deck. As she reaches into a baggy and begins to distribute pet food across the boards, the strangest thing suddenly happens. Tiny little raccoon hands begin to pop up randomly in the cracks between the deck boards as they race to grab the tasty morsels of food. Their alien looking paws frantically search and feel around for a bite to eat as the woman continues putting out food.
While this may look like a scene straight out of a horror movie to some people, it’s actually quite fascinating and oddly adorable to watch. Check it out because you likely won’t ever see this anywhere else again!

Security Camera Catches Terrifying Moment When Crocodile Jumps In Pool Where Couple Is Swimming
image via – youtube.com
For many people, going on a trip to Africa and staying in a beautiful lodge among all the wild animals is the stuff that dreams are made of. However, for one couple visiting Kariba, Zimbabwe, their African vacation experience almost turned into a total nightmare.
The couple were out enjoying a late night dip in the pool when they were suddenly joined by a completely unexpected surprise visitor. A surveillance camera caught the moment when a six foot long crocodile suddenly appeared at the pool side! The beast can be seen lurking off to the right in the video between several sun chairs, as if he’s stalking the man and woman out and preying on them.
Moments later the crocodile races forward and slides right into the pool. He immediately begins snapping at the shocked couple who scramble desperately to get away from it. The man manages to quickly haul himself out of the pool, but that makes the crocodile’s focus shift solely onto the woman who is desperately trying to escape to the other side. With lightning quick speed the animal closes the gap between itself and the woman and appears to snap at her as she fends it off with her arms. At this point, the man is back by her side and either something he did or the sight of him causes the crocodile to back off for a moment, giving the woman the break she needs to finally jump out of the pool.
It’s hard to tell in the video with all the splashing, but according to Daily Mail the woman sustained more than one bite. While no additional information was provided as to her condition, it appears that she wasn’t severely physically injured. If anything, the emotional and psychological toll from a terrifying experience like this would have a greater, longer lasting impact. Regardless of that, she’s lucky to have escaped as quickly as she did.
Many people online have commented on how fast the man jumped out of the pool, leaving the woman to fend for herself. While most of the remarks are negative, the old adage comes to mind about fight or flight. His instinctive response was to flee, which is what most of us would probably do as well. Who would really fight a crocodile in the water where they have the clear advantage? Plus, he immediately raced to her side and tried to help her, so it’s not like he really ran away and left her on her own.
In the end, they both escaped with their lives and that’s is all that really matters. Check out the insane footage because this is something you truly have to see for yourself!
