The Megalodon is an extinct species of shark that lived approximately 23 to 2.6 million years ago during the Early Miocene era. Scientists suggest that Megalodon looked like a stockier version of the great white shark and fossil remains reveal it reached lengths of 18 meters (59 ft) with the average size being 10.5 meters (34 ft). However, an even bigger and more terrifying shark may have existed, according to a new mini-documentary.
The TopMan 2.0 posted their new series “The Black Demon” on their YouTube channel in September 2018, claiming the huge creature inhabits the coast of California, US.
According to the video, several fishermen in the Pacific Ocean have recorded first-hand experiences with the apparent beast.
The narrator revealed: “Hundreds of whales have been found dead in these waters with signs of being attacked.
“Some [fishermen] have claimed to survived encounters with a giant black creature with huge sharp teeth.
“There have been hundreds of sightings of the shark, particularly near Baja California, Mexico.
“Local fishermen saw huge shadows under the water and their claims are being investigated by scientists across the globe.
“The story is now attracting the attention of tasks forces and TV channels hoping to get a snap.”
However, there is no concrete evidence the Black Demon exists, with testimonies being the most currently available.
Despite this, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has previously admitted it is hard to rule out the possibility of many claims in the water.
They revealed how as much as 95 percent of the world’s ocean and 99 percent of the ocean floor remains unexplored.
Visiting these regions deep below the ocean’s surface is difficult, time-consuming and expensive.
