Megalodon

[Morose]

Megalodon, the largest of the prehistoric sharks. It supposedly went extinct around 2.5 million years ago, but some people believe it may still exist. What do you think? It is really possible this giant shark might still be with us? Does the Megalodon still lurk in our oceans?

It's rare to find Megalodon teeth longer than twelve centimetres. The biggest one ever found measures around eighteen centimetres, almost three times the size of the teeth of a modern Great White. Here's another thing: the bite force of a modern Great White is around 1,814kgs (4000 pounds). T-Rex's bite force is thought to have been anywhere between 3,628kgs and 5,900kgs (8000-13,000 pounds). The bite force of a Megalodon, however, may have been up to 20,000kgs (40,000 pounds). If this is true, it means the Megalodon had the strongest bite of any known animal.

It's estimated that Megalodon could reach a length of between eighteen and twenty-two metres, roughly the same size as a modern Whale shark.

There is a science fiction horror movie called "The Meg". It follows a group of scientists as they try to stop a 75-foot Megalodon from terrorizing a beach.

A second movie called "Meg 2: The Trench" was also made. Like the previous film, it follows a group of scientists who must outrun and outswim the megalodons when a malevolent mining operation threatens their mission and forces them into a high-stakes battle for survival.

The original novel, Meg, was pretty intense.  I enjoyed it quite a bit.

That is my kind of horror.
