News said it looked like a tiger shark. Doesn't look like a tiger to me, looks more like a great white in my non expert shark week professional opinion.

At first I thought the same thing, mostly because you can't see any stripes/markings and because of the breaching nature.

But if you look closely at the shape of the head you'll see it's a Tiger. Great Whites have a very pronounced pointy nose whereas Tigers have a wider head with a blunt nose IMO.

Still it's a great video, gotta love braddahs reaction! You can only imagine the adrenaline rush he must've had going...lol!!  ;D

Hmmm...I'm fairly certain he saw stripes/markings from something that "breached" when changing his undies.

By the size of the shark if it was a tiger it would of had stripes and the nose would of been more blunt. What it looked like was a Galapagos shark.

Yup I don't think it's a tiger and I certainly don't think it's 10ft long like the news outlets are saying.
