Megalodon was an incredible animal, A massive hyperpredatory shark with a tenure lasting 20 million years. It had a bite force 3 times that of tyrannosaurus rex, and could weigh more than a humpback whale, if it returned to the modern day, what would happen?

Nuclear bomb vs preschool classroom 💀💀
vicious comparison, if whales could read they would be crushed

Megalodon fin soup sounds appetizing
No.
nice video
Some new ideas for future videos:
What if Dimetrodon was reintroduced to the modern day?
What if Liopleurodon was reintroduced to the modern day?
What if Gigantopithecus blacki was reintroduced to the modern day?
What if Dienoycus was reintroduced to the modern day?
Great ideas!
Saw this vid was around some time ago and finally decided to watch it. Pretty good. Now, I have a question; what if megalodon was introduced to the mesozoic?
Megalodon went extinct 3.6 million years ago, not 2.6 million years ago.
Also, I'm trying to reply to someone in one of the comment threads, but my reply keeps disappearing.
Do What if T rex introduced in the modern day Australian outback
RIP orcas. Seriously, we already know megalodon ate orca-sized raptorial cetaceans…
meglodon would 100% go extinct, not enough prey and they are simply too big, but could Mosasaurus hoffmanni survive today?( you could include the smaller mosasaur species like mosasaurus missouriensis)
Interesting question, the larger mosasaurus Hoffmanni might actually do worse than it’s smaller cousins
@Sedimented.Studios what about mosasaurus limionensis? It could probably survive on a diet of large fish and small sea mammals like seals or dolfphins, and it would be big enough to defend itself from most predators and was smaller than mosasaurus hoffmanni
Would baboons survive in the Mesozoic?
I still think Megalodon would have to be fully grown have have no threats to it. Since Orcas hunt sharks already, they would be a threat to Megalodon juveniles until they get large enough. Orcas may even focus to hunt them when they are young once they learn that they can grow to massive size and that could threaten themselves, because Orcas are specially adaptive predators.
6:47 Meg vs Aircraft carrier?
I would place my money on the aircraft carrier
We would hunt them to extinction, I think we can all agree on that, they have no chance against us. Other than that, considering the relationship between Orcas and Large Sharks, I think those whales back then were pretty formidable, and Orcas are just too smart. Even against a large individual, a pod would overwhelm it eventually.
i disagree regarding orca's, the largest prey orcas have been observed hunting is the pygmy blue whale, which is around 52 tons, close in size to Megalodon, but there is a huge difference in that baleen whales have no anatomy designed to kill other large animals, they're only hope is to outrun or bash their predators, while megalodon was built to hunt and kill whales specifically, while i think it would go both ways, and younger/smaller megalodon could be killed by orcas, adults would be way too dangerous to be threatened
@@Sedimented.StudiosWould probably die to a huge pod though.
I can agree with that. Large individuals might too much but Orcas are very adaptable, capable of learning, specializing and teaching. If Megalodon try to compete with Orcas and invade their hunting grounds instead of niche partitioning, I can see Orcas learning to hunt their young or pregnant mothers. Now I don't know the breeding or parenting habits of sharks at all. If Megalodons group together to give birth, breed fast enough, protect their young or parent them long enough etc. then yes I can see Orcas wouldn't be a problem.
Besides does the oceans still have enough prey items for Megalodons to sustain themselves and balance the food chain without breaking it?
@@MrPink-qf1xi You give too much credit to the orcas. Megaladon lived with several whales as intelligent as orcas. Intelligence also doesnt save a species from predation unless said species is smart enough to make spears and guns.
First: there were orcas in the age of megaladon. We have direct evidence of these orcas being regularly preyed upon by either megaladons, levyiatans or both. The fossils ribs were crushed in, the orca was rammed by an extremely powerful predator.
Secondly, Orcas likely could not take out a megaladon even with large pods. Large orca pods hunt toothless baleen whales by wearing them down and drowning them, this process takes about 4 hours against a fin whale which was nowhere as large as megs. Megs, like modern sharks, would likely dive to avoid orca pods.
I could see a large orca pod getting ambushed by megs ramming them from below, the hurt orca would be dead on impact, the family may counter attack but the meg wouldnt sit there for 4 hours while they wore it down, it would grab its meal and dive. Repeat.
At the end of the day megs lived along side the mighty levyiatans which lived in pods, orcas on steroids.
They couldn’t have survived as the orcas will gang up on them and tear the big fish apart
Then why won’t they go after adult sperm whale it’s just not worth the risk
@@doctorstrange3740 spermwhales are stronger and smarter than meg
I wonder if this was the "big fish" that swallowed jonah
