The third one is real, according to Snopes.

The shark-and-the-kayaker image is real. See:

What do you think of this giant jellyfish? Real or not?

Yea the third one is real, I've seen this before. It's some guy doing research into sharks and they intentionally lured the sharks closer to them

the 3rd one isnt really a shark. its actually a dolfin

I think you're thinking another image with a "shark" in a wave next to a surfer, asdfgh. This one with the kayak is in fact a Great White.

And the jellyfish is a fake, but well-done, composite.

However, if anyone can come up with a picture of an octopus that big, I'd be more inclined to believe it. 😊

All I know is that Alex, you need to practice your left and right a little. I think you meant to identify the validity of the images "from left to right", not "from right to left."

😊

The center one is nice photoshopping but he doesn't have enough 3 dimensionality in the pic to make it look realistic(still better than I can do).The distances between the girl and the surface and the shark and the surface also seem to be different.

There's a nice teal outline around the diver in the jellfish pic from cutting him out of another picture, so fake.

Hi, this is Willy from Divester. Thanks for taking the time to post this on Museum of Hoaxes. I'm pleased to see people like spotting these fake images. Please don't be shy and come vote for the Scary Jellyfish image: http://www.divester.com/2006/06/25/scary-jellyfish-real-or-not/

Despite gabuhaha's comment (above), bear in mind that giant jellyfish invaded Japan this year! In other words, it could be real!!!

"In other words, it could be real!!!"

Well, I'd say it's not since it looks like they just added a diver to the photo on this page:

Re: 3rd shot 'kayaker'

I'm having a very hard time remembering the details of this event. But sometime back in the '80s early '90s there was a (lethal?) attack by a (white shark?) on kayaker(s) off the California coast (Malibu?). He (they?) was missing for some time before the kayak (& he; they?) was found w/ a huge gaping white shark bite.

I am a scuba diver & tend to dismiss most shark tails 😉 as misrepresentations for the sake of the media's hyping public interest. However this unfolded over a time span & was widely reported similarly by various media. I'm certain this incident happened, I frustratingly don't have all the details in mind any longer. Any memory joges deeply appreciated.

I also vaguely remember that it was a newly wed couple & they were both in the kayak. But I wouldn't bet a plugged nickel on it.

As an aside, I have a dive buddy named Andy who regularly kayaked & dove off the Malibu coast after work.

Thanks, J. McGraw

I really screwed up that entry. Everything is now corrected.

i tell you the first and 2end one is too good 🐛 :roll:

the third pic is fake make it bigger and look at it if you dont see the two pic line then get your eyes checked. 😛

hey genius the line is due tho the fact that the photo is form a magazine. The Photo is genuine. The Video footage of that expedition was on shark week. Get the facts before you get irrate.
