    What a stunning animal. I'd Love to do a dive near a great white. The best I ever got was diving in the shark tank in the Pattaya aquarium in Thailand. Small reef sharks etc. Thanks for posting beautiful footage.

      Do not say that though to a Jaguar or Land Rover driver, they will think you only like a proper car like a BMW :).
      The front of some BMW's is a Great White Shark. So yes, they are very beautiful.

    Its genus name Carcharodon means jagged or sharp tooth and refers to its serrated teeth. Its species name carcharias is a throwback to its first Latin name Squalus carcharias. I think the reason Linnaeus gave it its species name was because he was inspired by how the French ichthyologist Pierre Belon gave it the name Canis carcharias. That could be because sharks were once called sea dogs. Can you believe all of that?
