it is funny seeing all the sharks minding their own business, and Emma comes barging through looking for head pats
Emma: "Excuse me! Coming through, I see my human over there!"
@@Aelitagurl haha I love your comment!! đđ
@@Aelitagurl The human who feeds her đđ€Łđ. I wonder what would happen if he didn't bring food or if he turned his back to her. I wonder if it would still be just like a golden retriever đđ€Łđ
Just like your dog! Amazing!
@@Aelitagurl for some reason I imagine her saying that in Dory's voice đđ
Thatâs not a little cutie that is a BIG cutie
@ć-Lakehuntist-ć ok who asked
@ć-Lakehuntist-ć -đ€Ąđ€
@ć-Lakehuntist-ć đ€Ą
@ć-Lakehuntist-ć u hate yourself?
is it in the sense of her being really cute or in the sense of her being really big
This was one of the most interesting Dodo clips Iâve ever seen. This has really transformed my opinion of sharks. I didnât realize how smart they were.
The overwhelming majority of shark footage involves animals that have been sent into a frenzy with seal oil and fish blood. All the old stuff was like that and I believe even a lot of National Geographic footage of sharks breaching after hitting a drone or lure involves burley in the water. It is misleading and shows a very distorted view of how sharks actually behave in the wild. It is important to remember that they are apex predators, of course, and not harmless. They don't active prey on humans though, but an exploratory bite from a shark of any size will cause a fatal haemorrhage.
Look up Christina Zenato the shark whisperer. She is another who removes hooks from sharks. She says the sharks bring their "friends" to get their hooks removed as if they know she will help them. Very fascinating because they are wild. My fish know I can help them when they are sick but they know I do everything for them so that really isn't surprising.
@@davidhoover4063 Thanks, she's very interesting.
Theyâre not that smart. Below average at best when compared to sea life. They arenât marine mammals. Iâm not saying they donât have some intelligence, and that this man may not be safer around her than your average diver, but the more he jumps into the water like this, the greater the chance that heâs going to get attacked.
â@nothingbutsilicone1142 she would've eaten him by now lmao its been 22 years đ€Ą
Shouldn't there be a "medal of honor" award for this kind of level of helping injured wild animals? I sure think there should be! Absolutely Heroic work.....
^*heroic, not Heroic
Don't minimize that award.
@@spanqueluv9er pipe down technical thomas
There's something very cute about how her eyelids flutter when he pets her.
Thatâs how white sharks eyes go when they bite something in case the prey fights back and goes for the eye if itâs rolled back the lens wonât get damage and risk blindness.
@@thisisgoodnews8043 SERIOUSLY!!!!! It's Emma the golden retriever đđ€Łđđ€Łđ
Indeed! I thought I was the only one who noticed it... she seems so content when she does it (Doesn't seem like just protecting her eyes... Like when your cat or dog has that happy, slow blink)!
@@gabriellakaterina6782 FYI, sharks don't have human emotions. You might understand them better if you don't do that
@@adriankalitka3762
Have u ever been a shark whisperer or what as u are pressing so sure of their emotion translating ? Are u a Cesar Milan of sharks ? All the retarded zerominded keep bubbling your frustrations.
This man is a hero for removing these hooks! They donât ârust outâ as many people think they do!
It depends on the type of hook. It looks like most of the hooks that these sharks have are heavy stainless steel which just doesn't corrode. Alot of the smaller hooks used for freshwater are coated steel and will definitely rust fairly quickly. I have caught countless bass and other freshwater fish that had hooks that were rusted almost completely and just broke with a small tug from pliers.
@@coreyhamby2989 But it's not a reason to promote "no kill" fishing, which is torture.
Even if they rusted, that would take ages
Hooks not made from stainless steel do rust out and it is rather rapid once started.
@@fr4me.01 gotcha. Good to know.
She has this Disney look to her. Even the way she blinks her eyes itâs almost as if you can see her gentleness and Iâve never seen this before in a shark.
Agreed. Her eyes are uniquely adorable.
Totally agree with the "Disney" character. It's almost like she's smiling.
The really remarkable thing to me is how little those come down, and how slowly. A tiger shark's second eyelids shut automatically to protect them from impact, either while hitting a thing or while biting into a thing as any stray bits bounce off. Emma is genuinely relaxed bumping into this diver.
Disney đ€ź
This is the second video like this that I've seen. Completely different people who remove hooks and have long term shark friends. That tells me that it's not just a bizarre rare occurance. I believe that these animals really are sentient and affectionate beings. Like so many others in this world.
Yeah, I watched a similar video, but it was a woman who had the same kind of relationship with them. As well as a whale.
@@echospaw899 The other one I saw was a woman, too. I don't remember if the woman in the video I saw had a bond with a whale, too. I wouldn't doubt that it could have been the same woman.
@@anyascelticcreations her name is Christina Zenato
@@varucasalt4063 Cool. Thanks. đ
I doubt the shark could actually know that was him in that suitđ
Just remember that this is a unique situation. This guy and his crew have a relationship with these sharks. Does not mean anyone can just jump in and swim with tiger sharks. She IS a beautiful girl and I hope she lives a long and happy life. Bless this man and his work.
All the scuba divers look exactly the same in their gear. I can't imagine how a shark can differentiate them.
Crap. I was actually thinking this would be a cool thing to do. Sharks are like the Pit Bulls of the ocean; their bodies are too often conflated with intent by humans.
@@GinodiFonzo lol
@@4seeableTV they do have an incredible sense of smell. Remember they can smell blood from a quarter of a mile away. Iâve seen other videos about this guy and Emma, and sheâs been able to recognize him even if heâs in a different diving suit.
exactly, Rebecca. You'll also notice that all interactions were on the floor. Safest place to be. Tigers have attacked and do attack humans. And not just because they think it's something else. They are very intelligent creatures. But even just a "test bite" can be deadly, so I'll def be leaving hook removal and petting to the professionals. :D
Donât you wish everyone could do goods things like this guy.
No. I wish everyone could do really bad things, all the time.
@@lunafencoven what the hell?
@@lunafencoven are you high
they can but they are too busy with beeing ignorant and selfish
They can. Maybe not as impressive but just as important to the one they helped out.
I accidentally scared a sparrow off the side walk to get dinged by a passing car. Luckily the little one was only seemingly stunned. I used a Kleenex to pick him up out of the road & then after looking at him & examining his wings for injuries I was pretty sure he was going to be ok. So I made the decision that it was better for him to be placed behind cover in a tree. It was a little chilly, to me anyway, so I covered him with the Kleenexes & left him.
Hopefully he was ok. I think he was. But unless clearly injured I didn't want to take him on the bus clear across town without a dark box to put him in for recovery. So I tried to balance what was right for him.
Otherwise if at home I'd have probably put him in a dark quiet box in my closet
with a little container of water & left him for an hour or so.
If obviously injured I'd have contacted a rehabber for him.
But he was already coming around & looking around. His wings seemed ok.
So decided it wasn't worth the risk of stress killing him.
Again multiple buses for around 2 hours.
But if I'd left him in the hospital driveway there was a good chance he'd have been killed.
So my actions were important to that little cutie.
But obviously no where near as impressive as being friends with me a certain adorable shark for 2 decades.
Oh I also made very sure to thoroughly clean my hands with the rubbing alcohol I carry as a sanitizer afterwards.
Sharks are so misunderstood. They're such gentle creatures.
Emma knows what he did for her, and she is ever so grateful to him !!!! đ
Most people don't give sharks a lot of credit even though they are amazing. Emma is such a sweetie, you guys have such a cute friendship. Love from Dubai!
Until *CHOMP*
Wellll....if you can swim with the sharks you are quite capable, but to be the actual shark is being divine in one's field. So I guess we give them credit subconsciously with iconography at every level:)
I mean sharks have personalities like people, some are chill, and recognise human faces, and others are dicks who eat human faces (its not really mistaken identity when the shark pops its head out of the water to scope you out first).
Don't be so naive....sharks are not sweet they are predators. Smh
@@p1nk318, but they are domesticated. Smh
Tiger sharks look so adorable! Such beautiful creatures.
Which does not mean you should go and try to befriend one.
This won't end well.
@@BadassHater1 I exactly right it wouldn't end well we need to leave the wild wild alone great comment
@WORLD OF FAMILY GUY man please stop you're just stealing content maybe do something productive
@@kofalofa6648 Like go and try petting a shark and tell us how friendly they are. I'm sure sure Jim's right that they're just like golden retrievers đ
how does she recognize him in all that gear from other divers?? that's so amazing lol
Sharks have pretty good noses so she probably recognized him through smelling
Sharks have very sensitive electrical signal receptors in their nose known as the Ampullae of Lorenzini. My guess is that they might be able to distinguish between our electrical signals. I don't think its sight or smell.
@@deltatango-six7941 I think itâs both, Emma had plenty of time to learn what he smells and zaps like when he was removing the hooks
I've been following Him and Emma's story for over 10 years now. I can't find the words to express or explain how much it means to me. I love sharks with my whole being and wish some day people will realize and appreciate how special and needed these magnificent creatures truly aređąđ„°đ„°đ„°đ„°đ„°
I'm terrified of sharks but I also love them. I'm glad that these people have the balls to help the sharks
Same. The fascinate me, but I also scream bloody murder and start shaking and crying when I run headfirst into a shark shaped Christmas decorations (yes, that actually happened; my relationship with sharks is complicated).
That's probably a good thing. Large, predatory sharks are dangerous, even if they rarely they attack humans, why risk it? The last thing anyone, especially sharks, need is for a huge number of people seeing videos like this, and approaching them, without knowing what they're doing. There would inevitably be deaths.
I am very happy that these hooks are being removed, but it makes me cringe to think of how wild animals would react to someone approaching them wrong trying to help. Leave it to the professionals.
Same here.
@@emordnilap4747
Homo sapiens is the most dangerous
animal species in the world by farâŠđŹ
I'm the same. Would love to swim with them but terrified of running into one at the beach.
Well that's something you don't witness everyday, I learned a lot about sharks by this guy.
Dude stop spamming with that bs reply damn.
It's truly amazing how human beings can bond with any creature on earth.
I am just amazed! đł 22 yrs friends with a shark!?? đŠ soo cool đ
I'm confident that Emma appreciates this relationship as much as Jim does! Due to genetics and decades of heavy weight lifting, I too appear intimidating to most people and they react accordingly. Ironically, children seem to feel most comfortable around me. Friendship is a PRECIOUS commodity, for all species.
I knew a guy like that. Most people were afraid of him. But he was a big teddy bear to me.
lovely comment
I knew a guy a guy like that too. It turned out that he was a pedophile đđ€Łđ
If you ever get a hook in your mouth one of the kids will get it out! haha. I imagine they see you as a big protector as opposed to a threat. Whatever it is you have a great responsibility, and they will forever react to larger or intimidating people based on how you treat them.
It's such a special thing when humans and wild animals form a bond. This has changed my view of sharks to be honest, thank you.
Absolutely right đđŻ
@@gailhasler8435 like when a lion and a man start to love each other.
@David Goodfellow Will do, thanks đ
Emma is a great name for this beautiful Tiger Shark!â„ïžđŠ
Theyâre all beautiful and gorgeous tiger sharks.
I freaking love this story so much. Do they give Nobel prizes for animal conservation work? Cuz this man is hell overdue for that award, praise and payment to help with his work or do whatever he wants to do.
I teared up a bit from this story. He is so lucky to have this relationship with them and they are fortunate to have someone care enough to remove those hooks.
Agreed. Very, very inspirational.
He's also very lucky that he doesn't turn his back to her
Teared up? Get a grip.
Isnât this just beautiful? đ€
Wow I never thought that sharks could be friendly or affectionate đł Their relationship is so special.
What an incredible relationship. Iâve never heard of this. Itâs amazing to learn that sharks can have relationships with people. Would be fascinating to know how she knows him from other people in the team.
maybe she can smell him (or taste him, since they're in the water) the way cats and dogs do
Smell definitely.
Non-human animals are often much better at recognising us than the other way around.
Local pigeons befriended me after my last quaker parrot passed away (see below). First it was only two. Word got around in the pigeon community. I have no idea how they do it, but they recognize me, also often in other streets, while I usually am completely unable to recognize them unless they look remarkably different from other pigeons.
The two I just mentioned have also totally surprised me one day when I made a human "come over" gesture to which they responded instantly (they flew over to me from another rooftop); it did not even strike me as odd at the time. It's happened more than once. But how on earth did they know what I meant?
I've encountered one of them in another street once, told him to follow me that I would give him food, and lo and behold, sure enough, he was at my door when I later went outside with some food.
One evening, after I had been away for a few weeks or so, I suddenly looked up and from my office window, that same pigeon (who knows me quite well) was on a roof where pigeons never sit but from where they can look into my office. He clearly wanted to know whether I was back; at least that is what it looked like. Never seen a pigeon on that roof since either. (They can see over huge distances.)
(I am still quite friendly with two and have meanwhile adopted a slightly handicapped one who I rehabbed and then stayed. She still goes for chats and frolics in the air with her pals, but she lives in my place.)
I knew almost nothing about pigeons until about five years ago, when I looked up one day (from sanding a table in my main room) and there was a pigeon indoors, on my windowsill, in my microgreens tray, quietly observing me.
I knew almost nothing about birds in general either until I "accidentally" ended up volunteering at a bird hospital because I wanted to grow roots in the local community, in Florida in the 1990s, and called around for volunteering opportunities. A bird hospital was simply the first to call me back. I later adopted two non-releasable quaker parrots from them and they taught me a lot. Among other things, I learned that many non-human animals are quite patient with us and sometimes wonder if we will ever get it, that they too are sentient beings who know things and make observations and decisions and draw conclusions.
Humans are an arrogant species. We believe that our kind of knowledge is the only kind there is and that it can only be transmitted through human languages, while so many non-human species have been on the planet so much longer than the human species and communicate too and have different skills and abilities that are not necessarily inferior to ours. (They must also know a lot more about the planet than we do, by the way.)
@@psalm91rdwlkfpgrl Smell is basically tasting from a distance.
There is a woman that removes hooks from sharks mouths too and they recognize her too.
Emmaâs eye flutter when she gets rubbies!đ€Ł
Good for you, Sir! Glad to know there is someone out there helping our finned friends.
This is so precious. Big loving Emma and the sharks. Forever changes oneâs concept of sharks.
I wouldn't go as far as saying they're like dogs and cats, but they deserve a healthy amount of respect.
I'm not afraid of sharks, I'm just afraid of sharks mistaking me for a seal!
@frogcupcakes "This"??? I meant sharks in general. I wasn't referring to "this" shark in particular.
@@kevinp8108 i think they were agreeing with you
Same. I actually think sharks are awesome and I know most species rarely bite humans. But I do feel anxious about the thought of a shark mistaking me for their favorite prey item. đ
Love when wild animals interact with people. We always think animals are dumb. There's a lot more going on inside their heads then we'll ever know. That has to be an amazing experience.
This is absurdly wholesome.
âThey have feelings and emotionsâ - I wish more had this realization about animals.
This is so true Paige. My precious momma who passed in August of 2021 ALWAYS taught me compassion for ALL LIVING BEINGS. We are the ones invading their space. To say an animal doesnât have feelings is beyond me. Love from my home to yours-Katie
Every animal has human emotions. I don't understand why people just don't get that?
@@adriankalitka3762 They have emotions but not exactly like humans. We have the concept of consequence and deep thought. They are a bit more simplified in their thought process. But they still do feel, think and have a spirit.
@@saltycat662 You had me until spirit đ
@@saltycat662 They have a soul, not a spirit. Man has both.
Love this. Movies and TV have really taken a toll on many of earth's creatures. Sharks, bats, etc. We really need to educate our children better. Beautiful, kind shark. Thank you.
you can add religion to that mix.
I pity for those poor sharks who got killed...
i love to see thisđđ„°
altough i could not do it myself, iâm glad that thereâs people out there showing how cute and friendly sharks actually aređ„°
Critters are so cool, and people would benefit a lot by treating them with respect.
This is so heart warming. being best friends for 22 years is incredible!
It's alot of BOOPS
I love sharks. It's great to see positive stories about them.
It must be a great Feeling to have such a strong and calm friend
How wonderful to watch this beautiful sentient being treated as she should be treated, it is a joy to see, god bless
Wonderful!!! I love all animals, and I'm happy to hear there are people who can mingle with the sharks and understand they are not as threatening as people believe they are. I wouldn't suggest everyone just try this, if you are into deep sea diving, but to see this man enjoy his friend, Emma, and seeing how he relieves the sharks pain by removing these hooks is incredible! The sharks, like our pets, seem to know he is there to help them and not hurt them. There was a recent video of a woman who does this same act of kindness to her shark friends. God Bless you!
Nancy Bernard hello, I really like your comment especially when you say you love all animals, are you vegan ?
You should ask Jim if he could turn his back to his friend Emma or to stop bringing them food and see if they're still like a golden retriever? People should stop thinking that everything has human emotions. I'm sure you think that you're safe around wild dolphins too
@@jjradV You don't have to be vegan to love animals. Mankind has always had pets and eaten meat. Human beings are complex creatures that can love even inanimate objects. We are part of the ecosystem, we are animals too. We all live off each other.
@@saltycat662 what are your thoughts about factory farms?
@@saltycat662 that's because you choose which animals to love AND which animals to murder & slaughter for your insignificant fleeting taste buds. I bet you've totally forgotten about what you had for lunch 2 days ago. Just because 'humans are complex and are capable of loving even inanimate objects', does that mean we should reduce certain animals to inanimate objects without any sentience or feelings so that humans feel better about exploiting and ultimately kill them? Funny you should acknowledge that we're animals too. But only when it's convenient to do so. When it's in your interest and favour to use & abuse non-human animals, you'd say they're not like us. When you agree to horrible things like animal experimentation/vivisection, you'd say they're like us, therefore any scientific results should likewise apply to human animals. When you say you love chickens, you don't actually love chickens for who they are. You just love how they taste. To tie it all back, you're kinda right. You don't have to be vegan to love animals. You just HAVE TO learn a little respect and have some basic decency to leave animals alone. Don't use, abuse, misuse, exploit, harm, torture and slaughter them for any purpose at all.
I love how she closes her eyes when getting scritches, just like a kitty.
NO just NO! Smh
I'm smiling watching this. Something very heart warming about this story.
Wow... You can the way she acts with her human that ahe truly cares for him. Just brilliant!
I love love love this story! Sharks are incredible creatures and Emma , just Wow !!! đđđđŠđŠ
Oh my god this is sooo coooool ...they act like a dog when he pet them,and even their eyes roll over and close their eyes too when being pet,this is amazing you guys,this is a discovery about them,but I guess you would have to gain their trust to be able to do this,I can only imagine how much time you have spend with them in order to gain that trust, they're really just like a dog or a cat that also need to trust you first before you can even get close to them,this is amazing,I hope this goes viral,I really want this love to spread.
Shutting their eyelids is a literal reflex when bumping into things. Stop idiotically projecting human feelings and emotions onto animals.
THAT IS SO BEAUTIFUL!
They're beautiful animals but they still demand a lot of respect.
Very sweet but I would have a heart attack in that water! đ
Everyone looooooovvveeessss Emma! Thank you for helping all of the sharks with hooks!! I agree, yes, sentient! Kudos to you!! I hope you get another 20yrs with her! Please know posting these
đŠHow adorable! Sharks are people too! â€
I love Emma and watch her every day. I wish I could play with her lol. I think it's so wonderful what you are doing for the sharks and letting people know that sharks are not the vicious man-eaters people think they are. They are so misunderstood and by watching these videos people can see and learn just how beautiful they really are. I have started doing a lot of research on sharks and I am loving every bit of it. Please give Emma a hug for me đ
He's so lucky to have a shark as a friend
What an amazing life this guy has lived. Talk about living out your dream.
What an amazing amazing story...beautiful footage. I do also believe that all animals love touch once they feel it and know it..they want more. Absolutely fantastic!!!!!! đđâ€
This is so beautiful. This tiger shark and Diver Emma have a great relationship, great trust.
Joy to my heart
Emma's "toothie" smile was adorable..đâ€đâŁ
What a true blue hero removing all those painful hooks.đ
Wow what a beautiful story. You can see Emma smile I swear she's happy and smiling. This si so cool. Beautiful animals. Kudos to you guys for doing this and showing the world the true nature of these animals. And it is so special the bond you and Emma have.
This is such a heartwarming story. All animals deserve respect seeing we as humans, invade their space. The same applies to domestic animals I.e cats and dogs etc as they rely on us for food and shelter.
We only think that they need us for food and shelter. I'm sure I'm wrong though since there are no ferel cat colonies or 'wild dog' packs that are roaming around
This was their world before it was ours. All animals are beautiful!
Bless Emmaâs heart đ„°
That is so cool! Iâve always had a fear off sharks but after seeing this video not so much. Emma is actually kind of cute!
Wow this is wonderful that he's doing the work of conservationism and removing hooks. Tiger shark attacks are brutal but their connection is nothing short of amazingly beautiful â€ïžâ€ïž. Emma is a beauty
Powerful and moving, but exciting all in one. The world holds amazing things in it and we all need to be more careful and thoughtful. Thankyou for sharing. I follow your exploits and its amazing what you& your team do.. love emma..đđđđđđ

This is amazing to see! I never realized that sharks are like cats and dogs.đđđđđđ
Sharks are so VERY important for our oceans and our ecosystem I'd be so afraid because Emma has been around humans for the last 20 years that if she ever came across the WRONG HUMAN she would be hurt or killed.. all animals on this planet play an important role & are unique & special in their own way I just wish more humans would see it that way??& Realize that we us are really JUST guests here they have been here for millions of years.. and because of our greed we've depleted the oceans of these wonderful beings by almost 80% it's time to start protecting before profits greed is not the answer.
She won't exchange another human for Jim...
I agree with everything you said but the percentage. All of the oceans depths hasnât been explored so it couldnât be 80%. But I still agree with everything you said.
@@natalibera67 let's hope not...đ
Lots of blessings to you man!! You are doing such a great stuff. God bless you!!
What a beautiful story......and this man is amazing for taking care of these precious creatures.
Emma is a good sea puppy, very cute and affectionate. And I hope someday we can peacefully coexist so that stories like this are much more common. All those sea dogs deserve love too... just maybe not physical like the land ones.
I am so happy that you guys showed this to the world. I have been diving since 1985 and try to educate people about these amazing creatures and how important they are. Thanks for adding this dimension about sharks. â€ïž
Thank you sir, for the work you and your team have done over the many years helping and teaching others about these marvelous creatures. It's heartbreaking, though, seeing the hooks but so glad Emma and her friends had a hook-free year. I so hope that continues.
So much admiration for this guy. I can only imagine how good he must feel inside for the good he is doing.
Bless your heart! Once again faith restored in human kind... Great attitude for the animal kingdom! đđ€đđđ»đ
tell me I'm not the only person who's seen the same video on the dodo's channel before
Just incredible!
Thank you so much for making a second video, I didn't know it existed until now.
Just such amazing shots of you rubbing her head.
Thank you to the shark conservationist that is so cool how he looks out for them we neeed more people like him in this world
So beautiful! â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž Respect for your job and connection with these beautiful animals
It's crazy to see that nature's scariest creatures can have a gentle soul.
So beautiful to see and know about Emma and this man, opening peoples eye.
You know, I love every heart warming story involving human kindness to animals, however Iâve got the highest amount of respect and admiration for the amazing humans that show love and compassion to these beautiful creatures, and in return giving us the gift of witnessing the love reciprocated. Thank you for looking after them! Absolutely beautiful!
Emma is adorable and I'm so very jealous!
I love their faces when you pet them. đ„°
Thank you for the work you do!
I didn't know sharks are so smart. It's amazing to see how our nature is such beautiful. Let's preserve the nature, and not ruin it!
This is so beautiful!
i am so insanely jealous of this man
Oh my days! This is phenomenal, thank you for educating me whilst bringing us closer to nature Dodo đđœ
Emma is so amazing to me. I have really loved and been obsessed with sharks for many years now, and from what I have seen bull and especially tiger sharks are typically the most aggressive. Most of the other species of sharks generally keep to themselves if unprovoked. Even white sharks are more curious than aggressive. But beautiful Tiger Shark Emma is the opposite of aggressive! What a sweetie! I hope she continues to thrive and has many more years to hang out with Jim. đ
I've seen this relationship on other channels too. They've been friends with Emma for quite some time now...I hope Emma loves a long fruitful life and grows old with her human friends. It really is beautiful to see.
Thank you for the beautiful story! Such sweetness in the midst of youtube chaos
