Megalodon: Monster Shark Lives

Just think though, if the Megalodon was real, how fucking scared would people be of the ocean. I wouldn't go near that shit. It's terrifying to think about one of those things being alive.
 
I have a Megalodon tooth. I was pissed when I found out it isn't worth that much money. It's a freaking monster shark fossil. Come on.

I would probably be no less intimidated by it than any other large sharks that are currently big enough to kill me at their discretion.
 
The robotic camera tailing the shark through Cape Cod was pretty cool. The episode with the Cajun Shark hunters was really bad. I did learn Bull Sharks lived year around in Lake Pontchartrain which I was unaware of the multiple times swimming in it.
 
Shark Week fans on Discovery's Facebook page aren't pleased.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that Shark Week sank to this level after the documentary where the “researchers” pretended to remake the movie Jaws. Frankly I have lost all respect for the network with this as there was no disclaimer that the footage was fake. Nothing on the guide, episode info, in no way is the network making sure viewers are aware this is “fiction.” Now I look and tonight’s line-up is much the same. One good documentary followed by a sensational pile of drek that isn’t worth the effort to not watch it about sharks in swamps eating people. I am a huge fin-atic, and to have my love for these animals and this week of programming perverted in this way is one more slap in the face regarding this channel.
Shark week is absolutely my favorite week for TV each year. I post about it and share my excitement with everyone. However this year I would like to express my utter disappointment with the FAKE megalodon so called documentary last night. Opening shark week with something like that was a joke. The acting was almost as terrible as the fake footage. Completely dissatisfied. Please never show anything fake for your shark week fans again or plan to lose a lot of viewers!
We want facts on Discovery Channel. Leave fabricated science-fiction to the SyFy Channel. Shame on you for this megalodon show.
Hope it gets better over the rest of the week. Discovery channel used to mean quality, intelligent programming. Megalodon was trash. I couldn’t find any record of the “sinking”, nor could I find any record of the beached body of a whale attacked in 2009, nor were there any results for a WWII u-boat shark photo. So as far as I’m concerned the whole thing was trash.
