Wow, that lower right side of his belly looks like the worst of his scars. If you look carefully you can tell the huge indent in his body. That must have been a gaping opening for a while. You can tell where the top teeth bit down above it... Crazy shit...

[–]Drutarg 43 points44 points ago

And this fucker is still alive! This is why I don't like the ocean.

[–]willystylee 15 points16 points ago

pretty damn amazing

[–]fireinthesky7 8 points9 points ago

An injured top predator is still a top predator, and in the case of a Great White Shark, still way too dangerous for anything smaller to take advantage of.

[–]brahmss 0 points1 point ago

They're real life monsters, but I can't help but love them because they're super fascinating.

[–]TheOven 22 points23 points ago

I am no expert on of that shark is male or female

But on TV the male sharks chomp the shit out of the females

Because they are fucking a shark

The more they get into it

The more he has to chomp

Maybe those marks are shark hickies

I would like to subscribe to your poetry chapbooks.

It must be my love of the sea

[–]Zenith77 3 points4 points ago

Well if those are shark hickies, this is one whore of a shark.

[–]willystylee 2 points3 points ago

if so that's a monstrously brutal hickie. I mean that looks like it was a 3-4 foot wide gaping wound, so bad that it left a freaking dent in the poor lady. SO bad it didn't by any means heal properly(?)

It must be said: damn nature, u scary

[–]TheOven 1 point2 points ago

It always looks like she gives as good as she gets on the nature show

I mean after all

He is fucking a shark... too

[–]AerateMark -2 points-1 points ago

My god. You DOG!! xD

Or... you genius....

either way...

[–]TheNargrath 2 points3 points ago

Looks like a male. Under the pectoral fin, down near the tail, that appears to be a clasper.

[–]TheOven 0 points1 point ago

Ladies and gentlemen

I present to you

The expert

[–]cuddlyogre 2 points3 points ago

And it looks like his teeth are exposed through the cheek. Utterly horrifying and awesome at the same time.

[–]willystylee 2 points3 points ago

Yes. This bitch knows no pain. Might as well be a floating chunk of meat with machine-gun & chainsaw extremities with a v12 engine inside.

[–]hineyodor 1 point2 points ago

It is thought that many of those scars on white sharks are acquired during mating. Talk about rough sex!

[–]Talarot 35 points36 points ago

I'd like to see a picture of a shark after spending years being a human, please.

[–]Azzu 57 points58 points ago

[–]Kuvakei 4 points5 points ago

... Fucks sake, fine. Here you go.

[–]nickasummers 29 points30 points ago

He looks like a shark version of Admiral Adama

[–]Ponkers 4 points5 points ago

I missread that and thought "It's a trap... ? Doesn't look anything like him."

[–]Rubix89 0 points1 point ago

So say we all.

[–]B_the_Raven -1 points0 points ago

I concur with your observations.

He never even knew his father!

He's really a nice guy.

[–]OneMoreHero 27 points28 points ago

If you want karma you should post this to /r/pics with a badass caption.

[–]Sakarabu 11 points12 points ago

Saw it a few months ago, I think the caption was "An old warrior" or something. It evoked feelings of seeing a haggard old war vet or something along those lines, although I can't remember the exact caption.

[–]Chaotropic 14 points15 points ago

Whoa whoa hold on.

I smell something fishy going on here. And I'm not talking about the shark.

[–]TDEP 9 points10 points ago

[–]Spaghe-t 1 point2 points ago

that can't even be a thing....what? who? why?!

[–]NickDouglas 1 point2 points ago

Shark posts self-pic acting all impressed at itself, reaps massive karma it will use to lure beachgoing Redditors into its ocean lair.

[–]sehlon 0 points1 point ago

Actually, I'm pretty sure that /u/RICH_LITTLE is a bot that check for reposts and posts the top-comment from old threads.
Just check his post history. He has posted at least once an hour for the last 24 hours and other users have pointed out the same thing in other threads where he has posted.

[–]Chaotropic 0 points1 point ago

Or he uses karmadecay and is just a karma whore.

[–]sehlon 0 points1 point ago

That was kind off what I meant. His posting schedule makes him look more like a bot though.

[–]BryanBeast13 9 points10 points ago

Quick let's work together to make a badass title.... "The Capone of the sea"?

[–]Chaotropic 36 points37 points ago

"Shark"

I'm not very creative.

[–]prabaker 21 points22 points ago

"Old Shark"

You're not very creative.

[–]Lightning14 2 points3 points ago

"Badass Shark"

Come on guys. He said with a "badass caption"

[–]mattpsx2 1 point2 points ago

A shark walked into a bar...

[–]ReadyThor 3 points4 points ago

A shark and an Irishman walked into a bar...

[–]SUPERSMILEYMAN 40 points41 points ago

False, the Irishman was already in the bar.

[–]Mmmichelle92 -1 points0 points ago

You just made my day. Lol

[–]Bit_Chewy 2 points3 points ago

A shark and an Irishman walked into a bar...

Barman says, "Where did you get that?"

Shark says, "Spain - they're everywhere".

[–]martinzky 2 points3 points ago

"Where the fuck is Nemo?!"

[–]remember_the_fossils 5 points6 points ago

Fish are friends. Not food.

[–]zefrogi 0 points1 point ago

I'm sure it was posted up a while ago with the headline "Warrior of the Sea."

[–]MikeVoldemort 0 points1 point ago

A shark with a boat propeller fetish?

[–]RawrCola 10 points11 points ago

Out of all the sharks I've seen in my life, if one would be named Bruce, it would be this one.

[–]RICH_LITTLE 61 points62 points ago

It's the Mickey Rourke of the shark world.

[–]JoshuaLyman 14 points15 points ago

Came here to say this, but I brought a pic

[–]Xysten 6 points7 points ago

"Whos next?"

[–]RedJaguar 6 points7 points ago

"I've seen things.."

[–]Diggnan 10 points11 points ago

"Sometimes that shark he looks right into ya. Right into your eyes. And, you know, the thing about a shark... he's got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll's eyes. When he comes at ya, doesn't seem to be living... until he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then... ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin'. The ocean turns red, and despite all the poundin' and the hollerin', they all come in and they... rip you to pieces."

[–]timeformagic 2 points3 points ago

Saw hollerin' and thought gradual nigga was back.

[–]vea138 3 points4 points ago

Anyone remember jabber jaw? Or street sharks?

I just love this title. I do.

[–]edtehgar 3 points4 points ago

Guys a warrior.

Too bad i couldn't pick him in my fantasy football league. I'm stuck with the saints defense. ug.

[–]fireinthesky7 1 point2 points ago

I'm a Saints fan to the core, and still can't figure out why on Earth you'd pick our defense.

[–]edtehgar 1 point2 points ago

Friend of mine is a huge saints fan. He went on this tree stump sermon about how fired up the saints would be and prove to everyone that they were not just a bunch of bounty thugs. And how they would shock the nfc or something.

And i bought in.

rope please.

[–]javelins 0 points1 point ago

There HAS to be a better defense on waivers.

[–]RococoJoJo 3 points4 points ago

I see sharks all the time when I dive, mostly whitetip reef sharks and galapagos sharks. Zero fucks given. This picture scares the shit out of me.

[–]Ayalala 2 points3 points ago

I'd say a Great White would scare the shit out of anyone who dives around with white-tips and galapagos sharks.

Shit's like ducklings when compared to the Great White.

[–]RococoJoJo 0 points1 point ago

Tiger sharks are relatively common here; just as scary

[–]muertomask 2 points3 points ago

is this a male or female, does anyone know?

[–]jheregfan 3 points4 points ago

It's a bit hard to tell, but I don't see any clappers so I'm guessing female.

[–]Gnomie86 1 point2 points ago

I heard that femles usually have more bite marks than males. Apparently great white sharks can play it quite rough during foreplay.

[–]crackshot91 2 points3 points ago

One of the greatest titles...

[–]atomicauto 2 points3 points ago

[–]cuddlyogre 2 points3 points ago

What type of existence can cause a person's face to get into that condition? I ask in absolute seriousness.

[–]I_promised_the_world 0 points1 point ago

Perhaps, smoking, popping zits over a life time, not taking care of skin, and bad genetics?

[–]cuddlyogre 2 points3 points ago

Perhaps. It just looks like he has been punched over and over by a cheese grater.

[–]jabberworx 0 points1 point ago

Lots of sunlight.

[–]ours 0 points1 point ago

The guy used to box... in prison. Doing those things and doing the things that lead to those can leave a few marks.

[–]atomicauto 0 points1 point ago

Well he his mexican, soooo. Yardwork?

[–]Lorem_Ipsum 0 points1 point ago

In addition to other comments, I would say sun.

If you are in the sun a lot and don't cover up with something, you turn into a paper bag.

[–]WargManCrow 1 point2 points ago

[–]darkcow02 0 points1 point ago

He's either really lucky or an alpha.

[–]Luhmanniac 0 points1 point ago

Saw this on the frontpage a few weeks ago on /r/pics. But still an amazing photo

[–]GOATSQUIRTS 0 points1 point ago

why is this shark so fucked up? this has to be altered right?

[–]drapheus 0 points1 point ago

I expected to see a photo that was all black..

[–]power_of_friendship 1 point2 points ago

Man, I should have cashed in my shark-obsession for karma a few weeks ago when I first started using this wallpaper.

[–]imsorrykun 0 points1 point ago

I don't see any claspers, so it could be mainly wounds from mating.

[–]bobbyjihad 1 point2 points ago

Omar. His name is Omar.

[–]gnarlysaurus 0 points1 point ago

That is a terrifying and beautiful creature.

[–]Dermy 0 points1 point ago

I understand it might be next to impossible to tell- but any idea how old this shark may be?

[–]larryroutine -1 points0 points ago

[–]Musashi13 0 points1 point ago

I think that is the fastest I have ever changed my wallpaper!

Kudos and karma to you.

[–]technospy 0 points1 point ago

I'm loving all the shark posts. Such interesting creatures.

[–]defcon151 0 points1 point ago

Oh Yeah ha.... you should see what happened to the other shark!

[–]bestofyou 0 points1 point ago

Can anyone else see that evil smile??

[–]Baker2fly 0 points1 point ago

You know how I got these scars?

[–]Povidius 1 point2 points ago

Clearly, this shark has a pet cat.

[–]Uberphantom 0 points1 point ago

I didn't choose the shark life, the shark life chose me.

[–]PowRightInTheKisser2 0 points1 point ago

And I am surprised this shark has survived so long to make it to the front page again after being here so many times.

[–]Zentaurion 0 points1 point ago

Now we just have to wait for the "A dolphin, after years of being a shark" picture.

[–]digbus 0 points1 point ago

[–]silveradocoa 0 points1 point ago

[–]webchimp32 0 points1 point ago

That shark could well have been born during the Napoleonic wars, they can live for around 200 years.

[–]rillo561 0 points1 point ago

almost looks fake.

[–]electroplankton 0 points1 point ago

the scar on its mouth kind of looks like a grin- like he is so cocky and happy that he is still alive- awesome

[–]iRoman 0 points1 point ago

Lookin' good Bruce.
