They're trying to kill me!

...Shaquille o'neal got in the cage

With one of the ocean's most feared predators.

-He's in the cage! -Get him out of there!

I survived a shark attack, you bitches!

Narrator: Now shaq is back.

But this time, shark week has asked him

To go bigger to understand how sharks attack their prey.

Wish me luck, america.

♪ we gonna push it to the limit ♪

Narrator: So he's enlisting a team of all-stars...

♪ it's time to push it up a level high ♪

Narrator: ...To document sharks' secret predation

From inside the swarm.

They told me to bring my own wet suit.

[ chuckles ]

I wonder why.

That's right.

As you can see, it still fits.

Since this is my second shark week,

I realize that I have to build up to something pretty big.

I mean, how do you beat a shark attack on the first one?

I will.

Man: A shark entered the cage!

Shark-teeth proof.

Whew. Hope I don't get eaten this year.

I want to know more about sharks.

I do.

I want to love them, but I just don't.

They freak me out.

It might be something different for you, but for me, it's shark.

I'm afraid of sharks.

And I have to find the perfect people willing to go

The extra mile for me to find out how they hunt,

Why do they bite?

I know exactly who to call.

Kevin.

Yo, what up, shaq?

Kev, you want to see some shark action?

Did I say that?

Come on, kevin. Come on.

Listen, if I said that,

At the end of the day, shaq, I'm a man of my word.

And I'm gonna follow through with mine.

Text me the address. I'm gonna meet you there.

Just text me the address. That's all I need. Okay?

I appreciate you, little man. It's gonna be fun.

You gonna be where?

Shaq. This is shaq, babe.

I promised him I would go swim with these sharks with him.

You ain't going nowhere.

You about to sit your dumb ass down.

You got tyler and a child on the way.

You're not going anywhere.

Well, can't say I didn't try, shaq.

Kevin -- I definitely tried, man.

The wife said I can't do it. I got to shut it down.

Don't do this. So hit me on the next one.

Don't bail on me, kevin.

After I drop the baby, I'll do it.

Come on, kevin, come on.

Damn, I was excited, too. Swimming with the sharks.

Kevin --

Alright, shaq, let me get up out of here, man.

I should have called the rock.

Sharks are the perfect predator,

So I need to assemble the most epic team possible.

So, of course, I went to youtube

Because the craziest people seem to be on youtube these days.

Okay, this is good.

These dudes don't back out of anything.

-Shaq, what's up, man? -Hey!

Narrator: Dude perfect is five best friends

Who are sports fanatics.

They are the most popular

And subscribed to youtube group of all time.

Their videos have generated over 11 billion views.

-Yeah! -Yeah!

Come on. Happy to be here.

Oh, wow. Mark's jumping in on this.

What up, robes?

What's up, guys?

Narrator: Mark rober

Is an ex-nasa engineer and inventor.

With almost 13 million subscribers,

Mark will take on anything

And everything in the name of science.

Alright, you all ready to do this?

We were born ready, sir.

Other than the fact that we just learned to scuba-dive

A few days ago in my pool.

But, yeah, we'll be good.

I have nothing but faith in you guys.

Alright. Let's get to it, fellas.

Sounds good, buddy. We will not let you down.

Looking forward to it.

See you later. -Yeah.

I've got this idea for a build to just really get me in close

With the sharks.

Last year, I was in the water -- hey, rober.

Rober, rober, rober. Hmm?

To do that, I've designed this cage over here.

This is where I'm putting my life

In the hands of this cage today.

Seeing these gaps, I don't know. I'm a little nervous.

Predation? That's a good word.

Predators -- that's what it means.

So we are going to get inside a bull shark feeding frenzy

To see how they attack their prey.

How's it going, neil? Hey, guys. How are you?

Welcome to my office.

-Good to see you. -I love it.

I thought we had a good office. I kind of like neil's office.

So what we're gonna actually do is head on out

And we're gonna show you

A few cool things about bull sharks.

Bull sharks kind of look like wrestlers.

They have no neck, just big muscles.

Daggers for teeth

Makes them a pretty formidable predator.

Shaq: What is that? That is a shark.

Well, I know that.

It's called a wobbegong shark.

I asked tristan if he'd help me out,

Teach me what I need to know.

There you go.

I am very excited to work with shaq again.

Unfortunately, a reef shark did manage to get into the cage

The last time I was with him.

Sorry about that, shaq.

That's the whale shark.

That is the whale shark.

In life, when you're afraid of something, stare it down.

That's right. Like this.

Look at it right in the eye and say,

"I'm not afraid of you, mr. Shark."

That's why this go-round for shark week,

I'm gonna stare down the biggest shark I can find.

Georgia aquarium do loads of work on whale sharks.

Narrator: Back in jupiter, florida,

Dr. Neil is taking the guys to the ledge,

A deep-sea depression teeming with over 15 species

Of hungry sharks.

There, dude perfect will attempt to record

The attack strength of a bull shark.

Tyler: Do we know exactly what we're getting into?

Not really. I don't.

Are we nervous about it?

I am.

A little bit.

Neil: We are at the spot that I know

There are some nice-sized bull sharks around.

Narrator: Bull sharks grow up to 14 feet.

Neil: When it comes to pound for pound,

The bull sharks' bite is actually more powerful

Than a great white.

Narrator: To see just how strong the attack of a bull shark is,

The guys will lower a pressure gauge into its mouth.

As you can see, we've shoved it some bait.

-Oh, yeah. -Whoa, yeah, nice.

And the extra enticement right here.

Man #2: Oh, that is an ugly, ugly fish.

It looks like I had a bad hernia surgery or something.

Their chum-filled meter,

Nearby bull sharks recognize their prey.

Those are sharks.

Neil adds chum to the water to excite the sharks.

Neil: Yeah, that's really close to our feet.

-That was huge! -Yay!

What was the recording?

434. Yes!

Narrator: At 434 pounds of pressure per square inch,

The bull shark's jaw will destroy anything in its path.

That is an awesome, powerful machine.

To put that in perspective, the human jaw is broken

At 146 psi.

And the hard shell of a coconut is crushed at 323 psi,

Giving the guys their first look

At the strength of a bull-shark bite.

I actually was bit by a shark at one point.

Cory: That is not true.

It was unconfirmed. It was at the beach.

It was either I stepped on a sea shell or it was a shark.

But I mean, it was a -- I bled a little bit.

So, guys, up next, what we're gonna try to do

Is deploy several tags

And also get some measurements of these sharks.

Narrator: These tags will enable the scientists

To track the bull sharks' migration

As they stalk their prey.

Raise your hand if you're certified.

Alright. Those are my divers.

The others are gonna help us from the cage.

Let me get this straight.

We're gonna go in the water with the shark

And then poke them with something.

And we're all gonna be good with that?

Well, us in the cage are.

Cage guys are golden.

Tyler: Boy, when they said shaq,

I wasn't really sure what we were getting into.

Here we are.

Don't see him out here in the water.

Alright. Let's hit it.

I think the sharks will be afraid of him.

I agree. What's he worried about?

Narrator: Mark rober's experimental man cage...

Mark: One, two, three.

Narrator: ...Puts him inside the shark bite.

And shaq gets inside the mouth

Of the biggest shark in the ocean.

Don't laugh at me, but do we have any baby whale sharks

That we can start out with first?

Narrator: After a harrowing shark encounter in 2018...

...Shaq is back.

I only go bigger and bigger and I'm definitely going bigger.

Narrator: He's enlisted a team of youtube superstars

To get inside a shark attack.

While dude perfect is distracting a bull shark

To help dr. Neil tag it...

...Mark rober has built a tank

That he hopes can withstand a reef shark feeding frenzy.

The official objective of this whole trip

Is to study the "pack mentality" of sharks,

Which is just a fancy way of saying

That I want to get in the middle of a freaking feeding frenzy.

That's what shaq challenged me to do.

So I'm gonna try

And come through with this beast of a cage.

This smells so much worse.

Yeah, it's quite rank.

This is basically our secret concoction we made

With just a bunch of fish guts.

If you want max feeding frenzy,

This is, like, the special sauce.

This is how we're gonna get it.

What kind of sharks do you think I'll actually see down there?

I mean, we've got the caribbean reef sharks,

I think if we just carefully get in the water...

Are you sure they're not gonna bite me?

Yeah.

Ah, he's coming. He's coming.

Coming close.

Shaq: I guarantee you that a zebra shark

Has bitten someone before.

It's a wild animal.

Mark: Cage is going in the water.

Narrator: While shaq dips his toes

In the zebra-shark tank,

Above a 150-foot drop-off,

Teeming with two dozen hungry bull sharks.

Coby: You guys are so lucky

To have a chum master like me up here.

I am dropping dimes.

Narrator: The chum will lure the larger bull sharks

Near the surface.

Wow, 12 feet.

That's strong.

Cody, I know you're 6'6",

But you are a snack for these guys.

Narrator: The team manages

To maneuver the shark away from the frenzy.

Tag successful! Let's go!

It's a misconception that sharks are pretty dumb.

They're actually quite clever.

They can learn to associate different colors

And targets with food.

Shaq: Oh, they don't?

What do they eat in the wild?

These guys eat mostly crustaceans.

They're gonna eat --

Oh, crabs? Yeah, crabs and shrimp.

These guys live primarily on the bottom.

Narrator: Zebra sharks live at depths of 200 feet

And use their flexible body

To wiggle into small spaces looking for prey.

Who eats them?

Well, I would say larger sharks

Would probably go after them.

If you would like, you can reach out and touch her.

Oh.

This thing is pretty cool.

First time petting a shark,

Kind of like a dog, but deadly.

I'm just excited to see this -- this genuine curiosity

That shaq has to learn about these magnificent predators.

Why's it so hard?

These guys just have really, really tough skin.

Geez.

Just to your left as well. He's coming.

We're doing pretty well right now. I'm not gonna lie.

We've got not one, but two tags placed

In two female bull sharks.

Oh, okay, mr. Big time, you're tagging sharks.

We're doing all we can for the shaq.

Don't want to upstage you.

So I'm gonna need you to do something pretty epic.

I want to see you in the water.

We're just swimming with about 100 zebra sharks.

One tried to bite me, but I'm good now.

Look, it's not exactly true, but you got to lie sometimes.

This is my special.

Alright, buddy. Talk to you later. Bye-bye.

See ya, shaq.

Tristan, let's move on to something bigger.

I can't let these guys outshine me on my own special.

Narrator: Mark's cage is already teeming with sharks,

And he has yet to unleash his secret shark smoothie.

Sharks' sense of smell is 100 times stronger than humans.

They can smell blood from up to 400 yards away.

Feeding frenzies occur

When sharks sense an injured prey in the water

And respond by trying to capitalize on an easy meal.

With a thick sense of blood in the water

And mark thrashing in the cage,

He is quickly surrounded by 30 merciless sharks.

Mark: Oh, no!

Narrator: Dude perfect volunteer one of their own...

...To observe the competitive feeding behavior

Of hungry bull sharks.

Tyler: Turn around!

Narrator: To get inside a shark attack,

Shaq has dispatched dude perfect

Into the jaws of a bull shark...

...And mark rober into the teeth of a feeding frenzy.

But shaq is on his own mission

To dive with the largest shark in the ocean.

Whoa, whoa. What is that?

Tristan: That's your whale shark.

How big is that?

That one is probably 25 feet.

I'm not getting in with that. No way.

You always do this to me, tristan.

Whale sharks are the largest sharks on the planet.

They can grow to lengths of 40 feet.

That's a little more than five shaquille o'neals.

And a whale shark's mouth can be up to 5 feet wide,

Allowing it to swallow thousands of small sea creatures a day.

You mean to tell me that big thing don't eat seals?

No.

Other sharks? No.

Barracuda? No.

Don't laugh at me, but do we have any baby whale sharks

That we can start out with first?

Let's just start with a little feeding session.

Alright, let's do it.

If you would like to put a handful of food.

Okay, a regular hand or a shaq hand?

Oh, regular hand. Okay.

Oh, that's too much? Okay.

Come on.

Oh, this is a regular handful.

I feel sorry for you regular people.

Do they have teeth?

They have really small teeth.

Alright, okay. Really small.

How many? How many small teeth?

Like 300.

What? You can't feed a shark food?

Think of what mark rober's doing.

[ mark screams ]

Okay. Alright.

Let's do it.

Move it out a little bit further out.

That's it.

She is keyed in. She is keyed in on the shaq.

To fill an olympic-sized swimming pool.

Wow. You've got it. Got it.

♪ dun dun dun dun dun dun dun ♪

It wasn't that bad.

Narrator: While shaq prepares to take a plunge

With the largest creatures on the planet,

Dude perfect are about to stage a feeding competition

With one of the world's most vicious species -- bull sharks.

So far, you guys have got

To actually see their power in terms of their bite

And you got to be in their element.

So now what I'm hoping to do

Is to show you their hunting.

I want you to see the difference

When there's one shark around

Versus a swarm of sharks,

And particularly when it starts getting competitive.

Neil: Bull sharks -- they are awesome predators.

Most of the time, they're swimming really slow,

Keeping a distance from one another.

But when they get into hunting mode, they'll actually, like,

Turn it up a notch and square off with one another

And show with body language like,

"hey, man, back off. This is my bait."

Let's hold tight real quick, neil,

Because we need to set this up dp style.

So shaq asked us to be a part of shark week,

But we're obviously going to sprinkle

A little dude perfect flair in.

Don't sprinkle it in front of the shark.

No, no, no, no, no. You know what I mean?

Keep your hands in the cage.

Narrator: So to get these 500-pound creatures

Stirred into a feeding war,

The guys have set up a shot contest --

Shooting a ball into a floating basketball net

Connected to an underwater cage.

What ball are we going to be playing with, neil?

Good question. Coby, if you will.

Coby: Absolutely.

These are chum balls, the frozen pieces of chum.

-It's not a meatball. -It looks like ice cream.

Take a bite. Lick it.

You won't. 20 bucks to lick it.

$20? Yeah, I'll venmo you right now.

I'm good.

I thought I had it.

Just put it back in.

The only thing I haven't figured out yet

Is who's going in the cage.

Here's my thought process.

The chum master has done enough chumming for a lifetime.

I think we put him in the cage.

-So, coby, he's in. -Yeah, chum master coby.

I just kind of feel like I'm taking the risk here.

So you guys need to play for some type of penalty.

That's fine. We'll play for something.

How about we have some chum that's frozen.

Those are the ones we're gonna be shooting.

-I know where you're headed. -The unfrozen chum...

-Yeah. ...Goes straight on your dome,

Right on the dome piece, dripping down.

The chum bucket challenge?

Yes. It's the chum bucket challenge.

Oh, no.

We're dude perfect.

It's time to kick off the chum bucket challenge.

You boys ready? -Let's go.

Let's do it. Here we go!

-Oh! -Oh!

Garrett, you got some -- sorry about that.

That's nasty. Let's get started!

-Whoo. -Wow.

See ya, man.

Look at that basket. This is impossible.

Coby, you're gonna see the sharks better

With your face in the water.

Narrator: Once the chum hits the water,

Coby will have front-row seats to an underwater cage smash.

Tyler: Alright, guys, you make it, you're safe.

You see that, shaq?

Hopefully we're better at making these

Than you are at free throws.

Man #3: That's a low blow!

I'm kidding. Love you, big man.

Okay, here we go.

Here we go, wait for the move.

Coby goes for the grab. I wouldn't recommend that.

-Little d. -Here we go, gare.

-Oh! -Missed.

Oh, big shark right in front of him.

-Oh! -Oh!

Narrator: Cory nailed the trick shot on the first try,

So he's safe from punishment

And the sharks are coming for the bait.

-Oh! -Hits the rim!

Here we go. Cory's up one.

-Oh! -Oh!

Just long!

-Garrett, you know -- -oh!

Narrator: The bull sharks are already starting to swarm

The cage, hunting for chum.

Once they realize there's not enough for all,

They'll start battling for the food.

The bull sharks are feeding off each other's energy

And the dominant sharks are winning.

-Nice! -Yes!

Garrett's joining me in the safe house.

Narrator: Garrett and cory have both scored,

So the competition is down to tyler and cody.

And the sharks' fighting has heated up,

Creating a dangerous situation for coby.

Shaq gets up close

With the biggest shark on the planet.

Oh.

Narrator: Shaq's mission to learn more about

The predatory attack of a shark has put his friend mark rober

In the middle of a reef shark feeding frenzy.

Meanwhile, coby's in the middle of a frenzy of bull sharks

And with chum raining down on him,

There's still more to come.

And both cody and tyler have yet to nail the shot.

I've been long, I've been short,

And this one is dead center.

Oh! Oh! Just short.

This is dead center.

Yes!

Wait!

I get a chance to tie.

-No, you don't. -You were first.

Shut the cooler.

Accept your chummy fate.

Narrator: Tyler failed to sink a shot

And as punishment, he'll have to take a chum shower.

Wasn't the chum bucket his idea, too?

Um...

Right on the dome piece, dripping down.

That was unfortunate, looking back.

Oh, coby, I went down and I went down hard.

I'm getting chum dumped.

All chum-bucket-shooting fun aside,

What is it actually like down there?

[ laughter ]

A bad grenade.

Alright, we're gonna head out, get some lunch.

We'll come back and get you in the cage later.

We're bailing on the team lunch. We're going solo.

We're cutting the rope.

Narrator: Dude perfect's chum challenge produced

One of the biggest bull shark feeding events ever recorded,

Pitting hungry bull shark

Against even hungrier bull shark.

And mark rober is in the middle

Of a swarm of ravenous reef sharks...

...All in the name of science.

So he doesn't lure back the sharks.

Luke: The cage worked really well.

So well, unbelievably well.

It's just like an extension of my body.

Yeah.

Narrator: Mark's suit held up to the massive reef shark swarm,

Withstanding blow after blow from over 30 reef sharks.

They certainly seem to hunt like pack animals.

When one shark comes, they all come.

Something clicks in their brains,

And suddenly they're way more frantic.

It's like a tornado of sharks.

So as far as I'm concerned, this is mission accomplished.

I forgive you, shaq, for making me do this

Because it paid off.

I put my life at risk for you, shaq.

They looked at me eye to eye.

I went left, the whale shark went right.

We have a good relationship underwater now.

Can I come back one day?

Yeah!

Appreciate it.

Hey, I saw some fans down there waving at us.

Can we go say hi close up? -Of course.

-Alright. Let's go. -Let's do it.

Tristan: If you can get shaq,

One of the biggest guys on the planet, in the water

With sharks, excited about sharks,

Then hopefully we can inspire other people

To get in the water with sharks,

To see these animals and to help conserve their populations.

Alright, shaq, you wanted epic, I think I got you epic.

See all that, shaq? That's what you made me do.

I forgive you because I'm still alive

And I'll show you some of this footage.

It's insane.

Coby: Aah!

We got a shark following us!

Dr. Neil, sincerely appreciate it.

Thank you.

Allowing us to jump in the water

And swim around with these sharks

Was absolutely incredible.

I hope you take the message back to people

That these animals are awesome.

They deserve our respect.

Neil: Dude perfect learned a ton about sharks.

They're able to see that they're not mindless killers.

They're these smart, inquisitive and really beautiful animals

That deserve to be conserved,

And they can help get that word out to their millions of fans.

And that can only be good for sharks.

Tyler: Let's hold tight real quick, neil.

Let me just say, shaq, I hope you can sense the commitment.

I think you might be able to almost smell it.

-Oh! -Chumming ahead!

Oh! Oh, it got on my leg.

Pound it, noggin, see ya!

You look pretty comfortable in that, shaq.

This is nice. I like it.

You look good.

I'm a changed dude. I really think so.

The power of these creatures is just incredible.

But the guy was harmless.

He didn't even look at me.

He rubbed me a couple of times with no aggression at all.

I love you, whale shark.

I like the sound of that.
