Heckler Ive been to the faralons and they get some of the biggest whites in the world, just to put in to perspective the size of a killer whale. Plus the sheer intelligence to know how to put the shark in to catatonic immobility so it cant fight back.

Fun fact: Bull sharks can survive in fresh water for extended periods of time. In fact, a bull shark made it 2/3 of the way up the Mississippi. It was up around Iowa.

12-Foot-Long Great White Shark Suddenly Attacks a Boat Filled With Tourists
Tour organizer Rainer Schimpf captured footage of a 12-foot-long great white shark attacking a boat full of German tourists off the coast of Mossel Bay in South Africa. The video, uploaded by Barcroft TV, includes footage of the shark’s sudden appearance and its ripping into the rubber side of the boat.

Nine-Foot Great White Shark Eaten by Unknown Sea Creature
Gizmodo’s James Baker highlights Smithsonian‘s story of a tagged nine-foot (2.7m) great white shark whose electronic tag washed up on the beach. When scientists checked the data, they discovered a terrifying sequence of events: the tag had been dragged 1,900 feet (580m) below the surface, then eaten—achieving a 78°F temperature, 32°F higher than a great white shark’s normal body temperature. So this raises a reasonable question: what could possibly eat a nine-foot great white shark?
Conventional wisdom would suggest that it was an orca, obliviously gobbling up the tag while foraging for shark livers. They’re large enough—typically two to three times the size of the missing shark—and they have a well-documented history of hunting great white sharks. But the trouble with this theory is that as far as we know, orcas never go that deep; they typically stay near the surface, with the deepest recorded dive measuring 850 feet (259m) under controlled conditions. So if this was an orca, we have a new record.
Another possibility, raised by several Gizmodo commenters, is that the shark itself was attacked or killed near the surface of the water, dislodging the tag, which was then separated from the shark, dragged underwater, and eaten. The problem with this theory is that great white sharks are lamnoid sharks, which means that their body temperature tends to run slightly warmer than the surrounding water. If the tag and/or surrounding tissue had been removed from the shark before it was consumed, the tag would have presumably recorded an abrupt temperature drop prior to the temperature increase. It didn’t. Something dragged the nine-foot, still-living shark more than a third of a mile underwater, then ate the tag.
Could another great white shark have done it? Possibly, but that’s not likely; assuming the tag was lodged in muscle tissue, it would have been 7-9°F warmer than the surrounding water. Prior to the temperature shift, the tag recorded a temperature of 46°F; this would suggest a rather chilly water temperature of 37 to 39°F. The temperature range of a great white shark’s belly under these circumstances would be 13-25°F warmer than the surrounding water temperature, somewhere between 52°F and 64°F. The temperature recorded in whatever it was that ate the shark was 78°F.

It’s Official: A Massive Shark (Probably) Ate The Missing Great White
Four months after filmmaker Dave Riggs and a research team tagged a 9-foot (3-meter) female great white shark off Australia’s coast, the animal vanished. The tracking tag turned up— it recorded the animal’s position, depth in the water, and the ambient water temperature as if nothing had happened. Riggs found it two and a half miles from where the large female was first tagged, but without the shark attached. What happened to her? According to a recent documentary that premiered on the Smithsonian Channel last week, she was eaten.
The female great white disappeared in 2003, and in the intervening 11 years researchers have been speculating as to what could have eaten such a large ocean predator. The smoking gun evidence of predation was a peculiar temperature change that the tag recorded all those years ago. Data from the large female initially looked normal, with the shark descending and the tag recording the surrounding water temperature. Then, at around 2,000 feet (610 meters) below the surface, the recorded temperature increased dramatically from 46°F to 78°F (7°C to 25°C). A temperature at that depth could only come from the tag being inside another animal, an animal big enough to kill and eat a 9-foot great white shark.
In the Smithsonian documentary that aired on June 25th, Riggs and a team of researchers concluded that it was probably another great white that devoured their tagged female. “The internal temperature of the animal that ate the shark is a weird one. It appears to be too low for a killer whale and too high for another shark, unless it was massive,” Riggs explained. If it was another great white, Riggs speculates, it would have to be huge.
To be clear, the researchers don’t know for sure what caused the huge temperature shift their tag recorded, and an unusually massive great white is only one possible answer, not necessarily the correct one. Some researchers think it is more likely that an orca—orcas are known to kill and eat great whites—ingested chilled seawater along with the tag to produce the data that astounded Riggs. Additionally, cannibalism is common among great whites, but that predation most often occurs before birth in a shark-eat-shark womb war zone. Even so, as the majority of great white sharks recorded have been much larger than the disappeared female, the simplest answer could be a great white attack. The mystery of the vanished great white is still informed speculation at this point.
“The big shark scenario is the theory that is most widely accepted although I’ve noticed a lot of other creatures being suggested online–I don’t think that Godzilla is a possibility though!”

The tables get turned...
Goliath grouper swallows shark in one gulp, fishermen nearly crap themselves
http://guyism.com/sports/goliath-grouper-swallows-shark.html
Here we see several a$$hole fishermen playing with their catch, and end up getting a juvenile shark killed. All in all, this video was pretty awesome.
Would the shark have lived they just pulled it out of the water, unhooked it, and set it free? Probably. But that’s not what happened…what happened is they let it swim in circles, only to have life extinguished in one massive gulp from the largest of all groupers: the Goliath Grouper. The action heats up around the :30 mark
