Great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias)

[le serb]

Hey everyone, for some time I have been looking for some accurately measured white sharks, or at least credible ones with some proof to back their claims. And I noticed two individual cases that caught my very interest.
As you are all familiar with, the fact that Great white sharks have sexual dimorphism, which means that females are usually quite larger than male counterparts.
The "largest" great white shark (agreed by scientific community) would be Ledge Point 1984 with a female of 597 cm TL, which is, don't get me wrong, HUGE.
But what I am about to say may sound weird, I actually think there might be 2 larger MALE sharks both measured and have good enough remains saved to be considered "reasonable".

In Alessandro De Maddalena book, Mediterranean Great white sharks. There is one individual in particular that caught my eye. It's a 620cm TL great white shark caught by Italian fisherman.

The both weight given and sizes of pectoral fin and caudal fin seem to correspond to the given measurement. Reply
