  • NARRATOR: What's more thrilling than a shark?

  • Every year between May and July, billions of migrating sardines come to spawn off the coast of South Africa, catering one of the largest feeding frenzies in the world.
  • Sharks make the guest list.
  • Hundreds of copper sharks swooping through a dense oily cloud of fish.
  • [music playing] The sardines try to thwart the attack by banding together into a tight shimmering disco ball.
  • When a shark strikes, the sardines scatter and escape, or at least that's the plan.
  • But the battle's not over.
  • While the sharks harass the sardines from below, cape gannets mount an aerial attack.
  • Sharks and birds corner the little fishes, benefiting them both.
  • [birds chirping] Air trapped in their feathers hampers the gannets' ability to dive deep, so they have to strike hard.
  • They hit the water head first with arrow-like posture, folding their wings behind them to minimize the force of impact.
  • Besieged on all sides, the sardine defense starts to fail.
  • [music playing] To make things worse, a Bryde's whale crashes the party.
  • Rising from the depths, this 15 ton giant devours sardines by the thousands.
  • Even the copper sharks give this 50 foot behemoth a wide berth.
  • And then it's over as suddenly as it began.
