or scratch a cat's back but not all animals are meant to be nice even if they look cute
and cuddly it's best to avoid some animals the sea is a very vast and uncertain terrain
we haven't explored all sea animals we might think we know about a certain animal but it
can be a different type that can be deadly to humans in this countdown we'll show you some real
life clips of why these animals are dangerous for every topic here are 10 animals that make swimming
extremely dangerous keep watching till the end and you'll know when waters are safe or not
number 10 big ol sharks sharks are terrifying creatures but there is a higher chance you
die electrocuted by the toaster than eaten by a shark researcher states that around four people a
year die as a result of a shark attack the good news is that sharks don't eat naturally humans
however they might bite the surfboard or the surfer because they resemble the prey
so in the case with our surfer in this video as he was ready to take on that wave he felt a movement
around his leg lucky for him it was a competition and there were people readily waiting to rescue
him it is such a surreal moment all he could do was scream and wait i would never want to be in
his shoes imagine the feeling at that moment when the shark almost bit him number nine let me slurp
lampreys are found at the river bottom in the sand when born they wait seven years to come out
they have a circular mouth full of teeth around 11 to 12 creepy layers to be exact
they even have two teeth under the tongue to get a good grip for blood suction they
draw blood from anything they can find but mostly feed on fish they resemble an eel but their blood
sucking power is not seen among other fishes their average keel number is 40 fish per year
when bitten by a lamprey they can make a round circular mark on your hand many fish are found
with such bites as you can see in the clip a lamprey attaches to the man's arm and won't let go
as soon as they detect blood near them a commotion strikes and they're ready to look for a warm
body full of blood next time you see a neo-like creature don't stand there staring at it just run
what is your least favorite animal creature write your answer in the comments section number eight
venomous jellyfish box jellyfish can be dangerous to humans their venom can easily kill us i'm
guessing the old peen on a jellyfish sting trick won't help a full-grown box jellyfish can kill
up to 50 people with one sting scientists have been working on creating an antidote for these
venomous creatures one person who got stung by the jellyfish thought he was bitten by a shark
that's how hurtful the stings are to explain how they attack we will see their sting under
a microscope as you can see the jellyfish is inserting each one of their tentacles inside
and releasing the venom they even seem to grow when they sting number seven you can't see me
stingrays are related to sharks that being said your dislike about stingrays should start to
rise now as we all are familiar with the famous crocodile hunter steve irwin we know that he died
due to a stingray attack stingrays are loners and only migrate for breeding they use their tails to
attack which possesses lethal venom or very sharp stings however these fishes are a sight to look
at with their flamboyant colors and flat boneless bodies what makes them dangerous for swimmers is
that they actually stay on the seabed sand and stay near the shallow waters to pray on little
fishes this is what happened to this gentleman who didn't realize he stepped on the stingray
while chasing another fish if you didn't notice the strike let's slow down the video and look
at the right side you can see a stingray flee up from the sand the damage has already been
done and the man doesn't realize this until it's too late now he's bleeding and needs help
number six stonefish spines now the tricky bit with these fish is that they look just like stone
you could be unlucky enough to walk about the shallows and step on it thinking it was just
a rock you will find yourself in immense pain as stone fish have 13 spines lining their back
the more pressure you apply the more venom will be injected and the more painful it will be
after being stung by the stone fish a human body can feel nausea low blood pressure slow heart
rate and swelling as you can see when the man presses an object against the spine the venom
shoots at such speeds and lengths you might not be interested in petting the stone fish in the first
place but accidents can happen and this one might be your last so if you ever find yourself tempted
to touch a unique looking stone think twice because it might be the venomous stone fish
number five sea snake attack these sea snakes are a delight for the eye their
beautiful colors are just exquisite but like many snakes their venom is poisonous for humans
these snakes are so poisonous that only three drops of venom can kill eight people a water stake
becomes more dangerous as not only can it crawl on the ground it can swim up too if you're thinking
that you don't swim down deep enough you should be worried because they can float on the surface too
that's actually how they breathe as we can see here the video is made from the point of view
of the scuba diver the snake is going around and suddenly decides to travel upwards towards the
camera we see a thud here because a scuba diver has been bit by the snake and he just collapsed
this is amazing footage that leaves us curious as to what happened to the person filming
keep watching this video and maybe we'll cover the whole story soon number four tiny deadly sting
these are cute little octopus that i just want to keep as a pet but hold on there's a lot more
to their cuteness despite their small size they can cause some serious damage to humans
they can kill up to 26 humans in one go they don't release inky fluid like other octopuses
their sting contains a toxin that causes paralysis in humans their venom is held in the saliva glands
when they bite they release the venom they aren't aggressive but if you disturb them or pick them up
they will bite you as this brave fellow tries to bring the baby octopus back to the water
he doesn't even spare him and takes a bite number three come here
a study says that all octopuses are venomous they can grow as big as 600 pounds and 30 feet
in length they have eight limbs and two hearts not only can they swim in water but also walk on land
if an octopus is following you and you think running in a room is your safest bet
well you're wrong because they can open doors and jars using their two limbs i'm just joking
but these creatures are dangerous and no doubt have been portrayed as monsters in many movies
here is a clip of a man trying to film underwater and the octopus is not happy about it
you can witness how the octopus has wrapped himself around the diver and his equipment
even after a good struggle the octopus does not let go and hangs on to the camera
maybe the octopus has filmmaking skills and wants to do a movie himself everyone should
get a chance don't you think my pick for today is a classic but still very dangerous that being
number two hungry piranha well to put it in a very blunt manner these piranhas are
very aggressive towards humans just look at that fish it's straight off looks so demonic
they can smell a drop of blood in around 200 liters of water
if you ever get hurt while swimming get out they might be coming to catch you they usually bite
on toes and feet and can only bite once these are wild creatures as you can see in the clip
they are given a fish to feed on in less than 30 seconds the fish has been boned to its spine
and is floating on the water these are tiny creatures with really big appetites we have seen
piranhas as pets to people who are evil and now it totally makes sense an evil pet for an evil person
number one swimming taser electric gills are commonly found in south america they could
generate up to 600 volts to stun their prey yes you got that they use electric current
if you have the slightest idea of how it feels to be electrocuted you can imagine that being in the
water and attacked by an electric eel is not a fun combination getting attacked by an electric
heel won't kill you but it can incapacitate you which can cause you to drown in the clip you can
see the man bounces back and falls onto the floor this was a very small eel if it was a full-size
one the man would have fallen unconsciously onto the ground thank you for watching click
