“Tourism Mecca” bruh lmao
i went to cancun in early june and boy there was ALOT of sargassum
First off all people in Texas are not afraid of sharks. Galveston water is disgusting and smells like sewer.
There is plenty of sargassum on Florida beaches… esp South Beach and also plenty of sharks
I live in Galveston and am a Marine Biologist. The sargassum comes in every year, some years we have more than others but this is a natural process and is not related to so called global warming. It is a dune stabilizer and buffet for shore birds. National Geo is hyping this up for sure!
National Drama Queen
I've caught and seen caught tiger sharks hammerhead sharks bull sharks blacktip sharks spinner sharks silkie sharks in 8-10 feet of water but if there is a lot of bait in the surf they will get up to 3 foot of water
I live in Galveston
I’m from Galveston
As soon as he mentioned climate change I hit the dislike button and stopped the video 💋
Can you eat that sort of seaweed I wonder
We still in the water. Ain't nothin changed. 🤣🤣
I was In Galveston last month and I went to the beach. I wasn’t going to get in the water tho I ain’t want to.
i had a sargasm watching this
Sargassum=no surf fishing 🙁
I was in Galveston last week and did a bit of fishing. I personally caught 5 sharks while surf fishing around the second sand bar. I caught a hammerhead, bonnet head, and black tips. The company I was with caught more total than I did and caught some bigger sharks. I did notice this aquatic plant though before watching this video I don’t believe I’ve ever heard of it. Galveston is loaded with sharks.
Is it literally a threat, or was that just sargassum?
90 percent of snark attacks are under the cover of sargassum.
I’m the only one who noticed that the Galveston beach is blue when actually is brown the whole year. 🙄
I live In Houston and I go to Galveston all the time
Oh no 😬
The sensational soundtrack and the narration is ridiculous, and it does a disservice to a worthwhile subject. National Geographic used to stand for more than this.
Yeah boy!
"You can actually SEE Sargasm, from space."
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Sarcasm attracts sharks to Galveston. You can actually see sarcasm from space.
