We Know What Ate The 9 Foot Great White Shark In 2003 #shorts

In 2003, 2 filmmakers came upon carcasses of sperm whales in Bremer Bay, Australia. Not far from where they were standing were a few hungry sharks lurking nearby. Excited, they rung up scientists who soon arrived with their geotagging equipment. A large 9-foot great white shark, named, Shark Alpha, was the first tagged that day in Bremer Bay. After just 4 months, the geotag washed up on the shore 2.25 miles away from where it was tagged. Confused, scientists looked at the data recorded in the geotag. It's turns out, on Christmas Eve, around midnight, Shark Alpha was swimming normally near Bremer Bay, until, it suddenly veered off course, before plunging 1900 feet deep into an area of Southern Australia ocean called the Kill Zone. The speed and depth of the diver was unexpected and very unusual for great white shark. It was almost as if Shark Alpha was grabbed by something else. A few seconds after hitting this depth, the temperature in the geotag recorded a jump from 45 degrees to 78 degrees. This could only mean one thing... Shark Alpha was eaten. But what could have been large enough to consume an entire 9-foot great white shark? We'll cover a few possibilities including, Killer Whale, Giant Squid, Megalodon, and more. Megalodon has been extinct for 4.5 million years. They looked like modern shark, but bigger. Much bigger. Larger than a school bus. A few years ago, a Japanese microbiology research team captured footage of a giant shark 1 mile into the Mariana trench which sparked some debates about whether Megalodon is actually extinct. Afterall, it's not the first time that scientists declared something extinct when it wasn't. Are they wrong?
