While there are so many beautiful sites to see here on Earth, from the plains of Africa to the breathtaking Niagra Falls to the snowy Mount Everest, there is no shortage of beauty in this world. 

Now, if we take a deep dive into our oceans, just as much beauty can be beheld there. This video posted below takes us to the coast of North Carolina. A group named the Instigator Fishing & Diving finds themselves deep underwater where there are offshore wrecks.

They said these wrecks typically hold hundreds of tiger sharks and other animals that gather or migrate through this area.

The tiger shark of the family Carcharhinidae can be found in tropical coastal waters around the Central Pacific, off North America, the Caribbean Sea, Africa, Australia, and China, to name a few. 

The tiger shark weighs approximately 385-635 kilograms (850-1,400 pounds). Because of this size, they are easily labeled as the fourth biggest species of shark in the world. 

The question probably coming to our minds is, are tiger sharks aggressive? And the answer is that they are not aggressive towards humans, which is why we see divers close to them in this video posted below.

As this diver is swimming around, we see a sight that is difficult to describe. There are hundreds, if not thousands of fish, in a school swimming by. In addition, there are hundreds of tiger sharks swimming near. 

As the diver reaches the wreckage, we see a great white shark emerging out of the wreckage. We hear the diver yell out because that is the last thing a diver wants to see up close! In fear for his life, this diver smartly stays back. 

Are Great White Sharks Aggressive to Humans?

The great white shark is by far the most aggressive shark in the entire world.  It is estimated there have been over 300 attacks on humans with about 50+ fatalities since the late 1950s. 

While most animals that feel threatened or cornered would absolutely respond in kind, the same cannot be said of the great white shark. This shark will often attack unprovoked. 

A word to the wise, if you ever see a great white shark far off, do not approach!
