Did you ever think something with no legs could have more hops than Lebron James? A great white sharked jumped 15 feet out water breaking a world record for the highest water breach. This shark can jump way higher than even the best athlete in the NBA.
The 15 foot shark jump happens near the 1:47 mark of the video.
Research shows that the average Great White Shark jumps at most 10 feet out of water. This Great White Shark was able to eclipse that number by 5 feet. If you’re wondering how this is possible, it’s all about speed.
Great White Sharks reach speeds of more than 21 mph in order to propel themselves out of water. When a Shark breaches water it’s usually to attack a seal. In this case the Great White Shark jumped 15 feet high, and also had a decoy seal in it’s mouth while doing so.
Now it’s time to go watch Jaws again.
