Great White Sharks vs Dolphins: Collection of Drone Footage
In this video, we take a look at various clips of great white sharks and dolphins interacting. While some folks believe seeing a dolphin means there are no sharks around, observations largely prove otherwise.

I’m glad that I got 50 years of surfing in before drone video like this! I’ve seen lots of dolphins up close surfing but I never saw a shark even though they obviously were all over the lineup.
Lol Ignorance is Bliss when you're having fun in the lineup. I always thought I was safe when I saw dolphins. I guess that's not true. Also I hate shark week!
The sharks are the cleaners of the ocean. Sometimes they clean the ocean from reckless humans. 👍 .
While surfing, have seen a triangle fin followed by a group of hooked fins... and chased off. Same fishing.. feed a few dolphins and sharks won't be near to steal your catch.
dang, that shot of the shark swimming right below the unaware surfers is CHILLING!!! when I'm at the lineup I always try to keep an eye out for wildlife, but now I think that, no matter how hard I try, I'll never see them coming anyway!
Content like this is SO important! Growing up at the beach we were told "if dolphins are near by then there are NO sharks" 😂 I don't know who started that roomer but I heard it more than once!
Normally dolphins will drive the sharks away, but only when they feel threatened
I don't know who taught you how to spell "rumor".
I blame the old TV show Flipper. That show always shows the dolphins chasing the lonely shark away from the area.
@@s.miller2648 No it's correct. I'm a roomer. All I do is stay in my room and play video games.
I had heard that too, growing up in Florida.
thank you for the time you take for filming, editing, producing this kind of videos. people like you is changing paradigms. thank you so much!
The Malibu Artist is my favorite content on the internet. I grew up in SoCal in Ventura before drones and always knew that these amazing animals were cruising along even though you couldn’t see them. You could literally sense them there. Once in a while you’d catch a glimpse and question whether or not you really saw what you think you just saw but his content just confirms what all my family used to tell me I was imagining. Thank you for the content sir!
It’s the same here in Western Australia. They are always around, we just don’t see them there.
Gave another small donation, Carlos. Small is all I have. Greatly appreciate the important work you do on behalf of sharks and other marine life. 💙
Thoughtful and generous of you to donate. Although, I find it odd, he shows ❤️ to soooooo many comments, but not to someone who donated 🤷♂️
That was amazing shark footage as always Carlos. 🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈 It was so cool to see that shark literally swim right under those guys without them seeing it. Imagine their reaction if any of them watched this.
Just to add to your video, here in Perth, Western Australia, we get a lot of shark attacks, mainly from bull and great white sharks, but sometimes from other species. We have possibly the highest fatality numbers in the world (but we do not retaliate against sharks - recognising that they are just doing what sharks do). Early this year, a 16 year old named Stella Berry was riding on the back of a jetski in the Swan River close to where it opens out to the sea in the port city of Fremantle. The reports said she spotted a pod of dolphins bunched up, so she jumped into the water to play with them. As she got in the water a Bull shark hit her and fatally injured her. The warning indicator there was the fact that the dolphins were bunching up, probably defensively, which I have personally also seen them do near very big great whites off rottnest island. So you are totally correct. The presence of dolphins does not mean that sharks are not present. Sadly, Stella Berry's death is very clear proof of that. But the behaviour of dolphins in the area can be an indicator of the danger level.
Well we do retaliate...the government immediately has the sharks hunted an killed after a human death
Australia also retaliates in deploying shark nets off swimming beaches. Dolphins, turtles and sharks die in those nets.
Dolphins also are not always friendly or nice.
@@prentgc not in western australia.
Just doing what humans do?
Great video. Around 20 years ago there was a Australian broadcast TV story showing Helicopter footage of Orcas and Sharks encircling a giant school of fish and coordinating taking turns where the orcas would all go into the fish and then all the sharks would go all in. It was the first time I had ever seen that kind of cooperation. There's so much still to learn. Keep up the great work.
I think it's called the big feast, or something like that. It happens every year.
This surprises me because I couldn't imagine orcas cooperating with any other species on the planet. While I think orcas are beautiful and amazing and I was obsessed with them when I was young However, since over 30 yrs have passed and we are so lucky to have so much information right at our hands, I have done a complete 180 degrees with them. I think they are cruel, calculating, and mean-spirited. There are some organisms that extinct would improve the planet. That would be humans, orcas, and mosquitos. Orcas are just not right in the head like humans.
@@katiekat4457I think you have a very poor understanding of Orcas. They're not these savage creatures as you're describing them to be. There are different types of Orcas all around the world and each type lives a different lifestyle, some are more peaceful then others. There is a video footage of a pod of Resident Fish-Eating Orcas swimming along side a pod of Pacific White-Sided Dolphins and the Orcas did not bothered them one bit.
@@katiekat4457 The sad thing is that you know nothing about the nature.... The saddest thing is that you have an opinion... Well, many times opinion replaces the knowledge...
@@katiekat4457 orcas are highly intelligent social mammals,of course they can and do coordinate with other species. In fact,orcas would collaborate with whale Hunters.
More stunning footage and insightful commentary, Carols. Thanks for sharing.
Awsome video, as always. I'm trying to recommend your channel to everyone once sharks are being mentioned in discussion. It's the best popular resource on subject IMHO. Thank you for your work!
Your videos are fascinating; I wonder now how many sharks came close to me when in the surf of Eastern Australia (Bondi, Coogee, Maroubra) in my teenage years. We saw dolphin surfing with us and never for a moment did any of us register that sharks were also close by, after all, we could see a lot of sharks patrolling outside the surf line from the surrounding cliffs when looking down into the sea!
I love getting notifications saying you’ve uploaded a video! I’m so intent on watching and hanging on every word you say. I’ve even done my homework on the “keystone species” which I understand now. I loved watching the sharks and dolphins interact in the water too. Thank you for being so amazing and bringing us this incredible footage. I feel honoured that we get to see it. I think it needs to be seen in a cinema for all the amazing work you put into it. You’re simply the best! (TT❤) ❤
Me too!
I don’t even have words to express how surprised & amazed I am by this beautifully executed video. Thank you so much for all you do to share your knowledge & experience with us. ✌🏼
Your work and sincere dedication are trully amazing! Thank you for such a high quality and inspirational content. Keep it going, Carlos.
Thanks for creating this. Educational and beautiful to watch
Thanks for doing this work and sharing. I love your channel!
Thank you very much!
Aside with all you showed us, is i love to listen to the 🌊 waves. That has always seemed so soothing to the souls! Thank You for your videos and looking forward to seeing more!
Thank you so much! AMAZING, as always.
First of yours ive watched. Well filmed and highly educational... thank you. Ill be watching for more of your worthy work.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that and your subscription! :-)
One of the best channels I have found in KZhead. This content is a breath of fresh air amidst an ocean of rubbish, click-baiting, unoriginal videos. I am a fellow filmmaker, and I truly appreciate the quality of what Carlos does here. One question: How do you stay cool with the drone amidst so many birds? I always get very anxious about birds taking down my drone (which they larger one love to do).
“a breath of fresh air amidst an ocean of rubbish” I see what you did there! Very clever and very true 👏👏👏
Все просто-он и есть эта большая белая акула😂
Yet another outstanding video. Thank you Carlos.
As always, thanks for the excellent video. Glad to see your channel thriving!
Much appreciated!
I love the water! Sharks and Dolphins are my favorites and i love them both, may we never know an ocean without them. Keep up the amazing work!
Enjoy your videos. First time I ever have seen you live. Thanks for sharing :)
Awesome! Glad you caught it live!
Fascinating stuff. Fabulous photography and narration.
Wow, this is my first viewing of any of your stuff. And i have to sau absolutely loved it. All the footage, all the info, the music, the soothing voice. Lmao im suscribing. Good stuff sir.
Dude, i totally appreciate your work.
Thank you so much!
Always love your uploads. Your voice is so soothing and calming, great music choice and always hugely educational and fascinating. I love it. Really appreciate the work that goes into this and I feel enlightened after every upload I watch, thanks!
Agree with every word
Pretty sure it is an AI voice.
I appreciate your videos so much and I love them for so many reasons. ❤
Excellent footage and content. Thank You for posting this.
Another lovely and informative video, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Very enlightening and entertaining. Special thanks to all who take time and effort to bring us this content. Very valuable to all of us. My compliments to all responsible
The video narration is full of assumptions and baseless conclusions, though the video was interesting.
I love the use of the hovering I 6/4 chord throughout the background score to denote tension. Very cool!
Truly one of my favorite KZhead channels.
Really incredible footage. Thanks as always Malibu Artist. 👍👍 🐬🦈
Thanks for your support!
Great video
Thank you for producing this high quality content. It has changed the way I think of sharks. I swim wild every day and it’s never far from my mind but I am far less fearful having watched your channel. I tell everyone about your wonderful work. Thanks again. PS it does seem that both sharks and dolphins prefer to follow the other rather than be followed - hence the circular “dance” Makes sense from a risk perspective. In a dog fight you want to be the one behind. 👍🙂
These are juvenile great whites and the dolphins know it. Prey targets change as they get bigger.
Great video. Thank you so much for your work!!
This was a very interesting video. It showed complex relationships that I had never heard of before. Your drone work is excellent and informative!.
I really really like your Content - very informative & thank you for pointing out that sharks are vital to the survival of our planet! 🦈
Thank you for taking the time to educate people about Great Whites, Dolphins and other ocean dwelling species. Your videos are interesting, informative but also very well edited and for me, soothing.
Please continue in this love to nature, your message is valuable. Thanks. All the best!
wonderful footage and I really enjoyed your commentary!!
Beautiful footage and narration 🐬 ❤️ 🦈
Your videos are art and your narration is poetry.
Thank you so much 😀
I love the cadence of your videos, and the music is perfect, you really have mastered your craft 🙏
Great drone videography. I watched every second of it. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the effort and thoughtfulness you put into your content! I love watching shark footage but unfortunately most of it is only available with narrations of “monsters” and tons of misinformation. It is so amazing to see this kind of footage and get actually educated narrations
Amazing work as always!! I wish discovery channel would just show your footage for shark week.
This is always beautiful to watch, thank you.
I grew up swimming at Newport Beach. Your footage takes me back to my beautiful waters.
You must be one of the foremost experts on juvenile white shark behavior by now. Thanks for sharing your observations. I feel better every time I go to the beach in Malibu, knowing we are not really on the menu.
I'm perplexed as to why you've had 1.8million+ views, but only 4.3k likes. It takes a split second to hit the thumbs up so why are people not doing so? Thanks for a fantastic, and dare-I-say mesmerising, video Carlos.
It never occurs to me to like , or not like, a video.
Because you need an account to like a video and not everyone has one
@@samore11 I don't know if the "not like" thumbs down option even works. It certainly doesn't effect the numbers on the screen, though it once did.
@@palmerphotojournal5403 Obviously however, out of 1.8million, I think it would be fair to say a lot more than 4.3k viewers have accounts. (shrug)
Thanks for a great year of content. Merry Christmas. Thanks Ian (Australia)
Great footage! So beautiful. Thank you!
Shark to dolphin: "You're undressing me with your echo location again, aren't you?"
😍 Amazing footage, thank you
Thanks for watching
Love your work. It's amazing really. Thank you for sharing.
One of my favorite videos you have produced of the year.
The Jaws/Flipper crossover movie didn't quite go according to plan.
Don’t forget Free Willy! 😂
🤣😂....hmmmm
Really neat footage! I was watching the livestream camera at the killer whale "Rubbing Beach" this past summer and Pacific White-sided Dolphins were leaping around a small family of the Southern Resident Killer Whales. This endangered killer whale population that lives in the Salish Sea specializes in hunting Chinook salmon, unlike the Transient killer whales that eat marine mammals like seals, sea lions, and dolphins and I'm certain the dolphins must know the difference, probably based on the individual dialect that each killer whale pod uses.
Beautiful and thought-provoking at the same time. Great video.
Wow! Thank you! This was amazing to watch. ❣
outstanding content!
Many Thanks!
Thank you so much for giving us a glimpse of these great creatures. While it's a spectacular sight, learning about their behavior helps us to understand the greatness and importance of their existence. I cannot express anymore than that. Grateful!❤️
Incredible footage, and love the commentary
Outstanding video and they are getting better and better!, great work and thanks!
As a former global diver, let me give my two cents. One main reason why sharks fill our nightmares is because they are fish and we are mammals. Bears, lions, tigers...even dolphins are all mammals, like us, somehow that seems more natural, an encounter more seemingly reasonable. The fact that a fish, a big fish with lots of very sharp teeth and zero hands (to explore us before biting us...) can kill us in a nano second, is worth our fear. Plus the fact that humans, face it most mammals, are very vulnerable in the water, where fish are right at home. Remember, dolphins eat fish, but sharks eat fish, birds, mammals, reptiles....
Dolphins are not nearly as nice as people think. In fact, sharks and dolphins IRL are polar opposites of how they are often portrayed.
Well we manage to kill millions a year, guess we are the scariest of them all!
Not much as the Karen
Dolphins eat reptiles, crustaceans and, given an opportunity, other mammals too. They are carnivorous, after all.
Very well said. Your insight is greatly appreciated.
Malibu will never fail in getting amazing footage of marine wildlife. Especially Great Whites.
Malibu Artist...this is a great documentary. So relaxing and informative. Great job. Thanks. 689 all the time!!!
Another awesome video 👏 thanks as always
It is amazing because one is a mammal and the other a fish, so the relationships are so interesting. 🐬🦈
Even more when you realize bony fishes are more related to the dolphins than the sharks. The trout I caught the other day is more closely related to ME than any shark! Even though they are both fishes
Just like humans and…..Reptoids😂
Awesome footage bro. Keep up the hard work.
Amazing piece of content. Thank you guys
Awesome footage! Especially that shark swimming right under the surfer! Thank you for continuing with this amazing species.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for this amazing video...I had never seen this interaction between sharks and dolphins before... ATB from Scotland😃🌠
Amazing video! Thanks for your efforts.
Another brilliant video,thank you ❤
We recognize how much time and effort it takes to produce such professional quality videos. So, thank you very much Carlos and crew.
One of the best videos I have seen in a long time!
what an amazing perspective the drone can provide......wow
Fascinating. Thank you. David.
Fabulous video, thanks for posting👍
This was so amazing. Thank you.
Gorgeous video love seeing a whole new view
Awesome information and thanks for a great video!
So much joy to watch your videos!!!
My stomping grounds. Love the footage and commentary. About 7 yrs ago, I was flying drones out there. Was going to start making videos for the surfers. Lol 🍺😎👍 Subbed
great vid. loved every second of it
Absolutely great footage!
Just...fascinating. Fantastic work.
Thanks for this. Very informative and I know how much time and effort must have gone in to it.
Thanks so much for watching!
Great Drone Footage. Southern Cal is a pupping ground for Juvenile White Sharks, we see them all the time. They eat primarily fish at this age and are not aggressive usually to bathers or surfers. As they enter adulthood, their jaws and teeth mature to take on mammalian Prey (Generally when they hit about 10').
Fascinating! Thanks for the insights
Amazing content. Liked and subbed as well.
Beautiful, and very original footage, not something I've seen anywhere else.
Great content as usual. Thanx
I always like your uploads. Great whites and dolphins were always my favorites since childhood
This video is Amazing 😊. Very interesting 👏. Keep up the great work 👍
