Divers Encounter One of the Biggest Great White Sharks Ever Caught on Camera

Remember that giant great white some crazy person high-fived a while back? The one the size of a small bus?

Well, her name's Deep Blue, and she's back boggling marine biologists with her size, age and basically every other characteristic imaginable.

As for that crazy person, he's Mauricio Hoyos Padilla, director-general of nonprofit marine research group Pelagios-Kakunja. He's been tracking Deep Blue's movement for some time now, and as the Huffington Post's Ryan Grenoble noted, he recently uploaded video of another encounter with the shark.

Padilla estimates Deep Blue to be 20 feet or more in length and near 50 years old. He also thinks the shark is pregnant, so she's hunting for at least three (they typically have between two and 10 pups!) , if your nethers haven't already sufficiently tightened.

I'm also 95 percent sure Deep Blue has a writer's credit in Deep Blue Sea. That's how she broke through into big-time shark videos, you know, although some critics believe the shark once dubbed "The Meryl Streep of the Pacific" is just phoning it in now with these serene, direct-to-Internet glide-bys.

Personally, I prefer her raw, early work with the cages but will never begrudge any shark that chooses not to attack humans at every opportunity. At a certain age, you just grow out of the Jaws scene.
