Whether or not megalodon sharks are still alive depends on who you ask.
Most scientists agree that they became extinct millions of years ago, but to this day, there
are many videos online claiming the contrary.

This 40-foot long shark was recovered by harbor authorities in Pakistan.
The crew needed to use a commercial crane just to lift its body onto the dock for a
closer inspection.
The shark here looks a little too scrawny to be a megalodon shark, but it may have been
heavily malnourished when it was discovered.
I think it may have still been alive when this video was taken, so I'm curious as
to what was done with this specimen and if it was ever properly identified.
If you have more information about this potential megalodon shark sighting, please let me know.

Aquatic researchers are stunned to see this massive shark pass by their cameras at a depth
of 3,300 feet below sea level.
As the giant shark circumnavigates their equipment, the researchers try to estimate its measurements
based on the space between the two laser dots.
While this size falls short of an adult megalodon, some people have pointed out that this could
be a juvenile.
Since all scientist have to off of is their teeth and backbone fossils, we may never know
for sure.

This school of oversized fish appear to have somehow busted into a commercial fishing trap.
They are feasting on the bait inside when a much bigger aquatic creature shows up and
quickly scares all of them away.
The lumbering behemoth moves slowly as it investigates the now-empty traps.
As other people have pointed out in the comments section of the original video, if this is
an industrial-sized fishing trap, then the shark has to be absolutely massive in size.
There's little doubt in my mind that this is a real video and not special effects, so
the question is what kind of shark is this and how large was it.
Let me know if you recognize any these markings and can identify it.
Otherwise, I think there is a strong possibility that this could actually be an authentic megalodon
sighting.

The quality of this Brazilian Coast Guard video is not very good, but it does show something
huge apparently lurking under the surface during a rescue mission.
A massive dark object silently moves behind the distressed swimmer and the coast guardsman
who is saving him.
The shark looks like it could easily match a submarine in length and width.
The video ends before we get to see if the shark surfaces or not.
I guess this possible megalodon shark sighting could be special effects or else just the
result of very low resolution.
Let me know if you think this is a real megalodon shark or if it is just too grainy for you
to tell.

This next video is most likely CGI, so I'm not going to spend a lot of time dissecting
it.
It was supposedly taken somewhere in the open waters in 2013.
Crewmembers are recording a whale when all of the sudden they capture something that,
if not fake, is absolutely insane.
The whole situation looks way too dramatic for me to believe it was just a natural event.
I think a real shark attack would have been more visceral and also most likely would have
taken place underwater.

This giant shark apparently washed ashore the beaches of Australia one day at random.
Some people are saying the shark was at least 40 feet long and possibly a megalodon.
The video itself seems very realistic and the crowd is convincing.
They even back up as the creature gets closer to the shore.
I saw the CNN logo in the bottom right and tried to verify this story.
However, I could find no official story on their webpage or in their archives.
Either this video is completely fake, or it is real, and someone decided to put the CNN
logo in for some strange reason.

That's the reaction from crewmembers after this shark footage was reported on the Today
show in Australia.
The story was about a new technology that allows shark researchers to attract sharks
more easily when suddenly a monster shark leaps right out of the ocean before their
very eyes.
I personally think that this is a great white shark, but other people are sure that this
is too large to be a great white and that it has to be a megalodon shark instead.
There is also a theory that the megalodon shark has diverged into a newer hybrid species
of great white, so perhaps this video supports this assumption.

The title of this video was originally called "giant black shark" with a question mark
at the end, signifying that the uploader was unable to classify this massive underwater
sea creature even after seeing it with their own eyes.
An astonishingly large shark casually swims pass the boat before retreating out of sight
to deeper waters.
You can see that this shark is too big to even properly fit in the camera frame.
Look closer and you can see a fishing line coming out of the shark's mouth from the
boat.
It easily snaps the line upon its descent and keeps going.
The quality of this video is pretty good, but I still can't make out many discerning
features of the shark besides its expansive size.
I'd like to hear your best guess as to what kind of shark this was, and if you think there's
any possibility that it could be a megalodon.

That's the reaction of two fishermen as an unidentified shark heads towards their
boat for a closer look.
It passes by them three times before getting way too close for comfort.
This is when the two friends finally decide to make a retreat.
This is, in all likelihood, just a great white shark, but other people are saying it's
too big to be a great white and that the markings are slightly different.
In their opinion, this could be a fledgling megalodon shark that was recently born.
Let me know if you agree with them or if you think this was a great white.

These fishermen were casting into the ocean waters of Palm Beach, Florida when a massive
potential megalodon shark comes straight at their boat.
The gigantic shark is easily the same size as their entire boat and could flip them if
only it knew how.
The sea creature faces them head-on and gives the fishermen a great view of its goliath
physique as they have a tense standoff.
Then it quickly snatches up the bait and retreats back to the depths below.
It's hard to make out a lot of detail because there is somewhat of a glare, but I have little
doubt that this video is real.
Let me know if you have any idea as to what kind of shark this could possibly be.

A YouTuber named blackriverfossils is on the hunt for more evidence of the megalodon shark.
He only gets to do this once a week and he wants to make the most of this hobby on a
rainy day in South Carolina.
He goes out to a fresh clearing that has been sectioned off for digging.
It isn't long before he finds a very small bull shark tooth, but this isn't enough
to impress him, so he keeps searching.
Then, sticking partially out of the mud from the fresh rains, he finds what he is looking
for.
The giant black megalodon tooth is serrated on both ends like the edge of a carving knife.
blackriverfossils later measures the tooth and finds it to be a full 4 and a half inches
long.
That's not the size of a full-grown adult tooth, but looking at it up close, I can only
imagine the amount of damage that one of these juvenile could inflict on a human, let alone
the thousands that megalodons were known to have.
I did look up megalodon teeth online to verify this video, and sure enough they look exactly
like this one.
For those of you who are interested, megalodon teeth sell online for about $600 on average.

This video was supposedly taken in South Africa in April of 2013.
Some tourists are fishing when something huge instantly snaps their industrial-strength
fishing line without any effort.
Shortly thereafter, it comes straight for their boat.
Water floods the vessel and, according to the uploader, this video was later somehow
recovered and salvaged.
As for the boat, investigators thought that perhaps a whale had tried to jump over it
and failed.
It was the only creature, they said, that was large enough to cause that amount of destruction.
Except, of course, for a megalodon shark.

A small kayak is completely dwarfed by an enormous shark that's not too far away.
The shark begins to turn towards the kayaker and makes a pass at them, though it's unclear
whether the shark was hungry or just curiously investigating its surroundings.
Either way, the uploader of this video estimates the shark to be over 40 feet long based on
the average size of a kayak.
Sometimes being deep underwater can make objects look much bigger than they really are.
However, here you can see that the shark is close enough to the surface for its fin to
break the water, so its size is not being exaggerated at all.
From what I understand, sharks don't usually come to the surface unless they see something
of interest, so maybe it really was going to eat the kayaker.
I'm not sure about the geographic location of this video, but it appears to have been
taken from some sort of helicopter, perhaps one belonging to the national coast guard
of whichever country is claiming these waters as its territory.
Unfortunately, the video ends before we get to see the kayaker's fate.
Of course, this uploader could just be skilled at video editing.
Let me know what you make of this one.
