A 15-foot great white shark was caught on camera just yards from the Santa Monica Pier, leaving locals and beachgoers buzzing. Photographer Carlos Gauna, who regularly films juvenile sharks in the area, said he’s never seen an adult this size so close to shore. Despite the jaw-dropping sight, shark attacks remain extremely rare—these creatures are usually indifferent to humans. It’s a wild reminder of the incredible wildlife right off our coast. How would you feel seeing a shark this size while at the beach? Would it change your view of swimming in Santa Monica? #Science #SantaMonica #GreatWhiteShark
