Megolodon tooth from North Carolina.  There's a buttload of 'em there.

About 4 1/2" long.

Awesome!  Did you find those?  If you find a decent 5 plus incher I'd be interested in buying it off you.

I don’t dive, but I was on the boat when they were brought up. That was one diver’s haul. Several others found them too.

The funny thing is, they were diving in a fresh/brackish river, miles from the ocean.

I wouldn't be surprised if they still exist. The meg would literally have no natural predators, and plenty of food.
Just because we don't see them, doesn't mean they don't exist in those massive oceans.

The problem for megalodon is that it's big, too.  It would have been seen/netted/caught by now.  The chance of any unknown creature living in the ocean (or anywhere else) is inversely proportional to its size.

That picture has been around long before the fake Discovery Channel Show came out. That particular show pissed me off when they said they faked it.
The first time I saw that picture was around 1978-1980.

Same here, I used to have a book on sharks when I was a kid in South Africa and that pic was in that book. I left SA in 1996.

Are they just on the surface underwater, or do they have to grub around in the mud for them? I'm working in the Brunswick river, supposedly they find them there often.

They insisted giant rogue waves were a myth until fairly recently. There could be any number of ancient beasts occasionally making their way up from the great deep of the waters below to our oceans.

Exactly.  I can’t remember which one was first, but I looked up the names of the marine biologists and when nothing matched I changed channels.  When the second one aired, I remembered the first one and searched the first name I saw on the show.  No match, changed channels and won’t get duped into a third show.

Much of the planet has been explored but there may still be monsterous creatures out there.

This is the only known photograph of the sea beast that that attacked and sank a fishing boat in the 1940s.
