1) Shark "Deep Blue", aged 50, weighing 2.5 tons (approximately 2,500 kg or 5,511.56 pounds), and measuring 7 feet (22.97 m), was seen feasting on a sperm whale's carcass off the Hawaiian island of Oahu: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world...32891.html, https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-46909353

2) Another shark which was also said to be about 2.5 tons, but measuring 25–30 ft (7.62–9.14 m) was reported about 40 miles (64 km) southeast of Martha's Vineyard (an island owned by the U.S. State of Massachusetts): https://vt.co/animals/stories/fisherman-...ite-shark/, https://geekologie.com/2019/07/video-of-...ton-gr.php, https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/world-n...t-18676333

3) Another great white that was recorded at 30 ft: https://exemplore.com/cryptids/Shark-Wra...-Encounter

"Brett McBride is captain of the MV OCEARCH, and a main player in the handling of captured sharks. He’s a guy who has spent a lot of time on the ocean, and he recounted an experience he had as a teenager.

According to his story, he was harpooning swordfish off the coast of California from the deck of a boat when he and his shipmates heard of a white shark nearby and went to investigate. Their ship had a 42-foot plank where the harpoon man would stand, and as the ship passed the great white they marked its length from nose to tail by that plank.

They measured it later to be thirty feet!"

"“This is most certainly a basking shark,” said Ben Wigren, cofounder and board member of the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy, after he viewed video footage of the shark in the water.

Basking sharks are the world’s second largest fish, and can grow as long as 32 feet in length, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration."
