MEGALODON WASHES UP ON BEACH

I got note from Bryan HD Gaming last week. It said,
“Hey Bill I watched this vid of a Megalodon washed up on a beach. Is it real… or is this fake?
Well, Bryan -- I looked at the video and to be honest when I first saw it, I thought it was a whale… but as I stopped the video and looked closer, it didn’t have the markings of any whale I know.
For the most part whales don’t have mid body dorsal fins like a shark with the exception of a killer whale. But then a killer whale is black and white in color. This creature is grey… more like.. you guessed it… a shark.
There were many avenues I could have investigated, but the one I chose had to do with this logo right here at the bottom… This was a news piece originally presented by CNN or Cable News Network.
Now when I see something like this and the original soundtrack has been removed, it makes me very suspicious.
Hopping over to CNN, I looked around and found my match. On July 15th 2009, CNN did a story on a basking shark that washed ashore. Even though the video was no longer available, the still picture was obviously a screen grab from the original video.
Basking sharks are the second biggest fish in the ocean behind whale sharks. This one weighed an estimated 5,000 lba or 2,267 Kilos. I was measured at 26 feet 6 inches long or 8 meters.
It washed ashore on Long Island Beach in New York State. It was still alive when authorities from the New York office of parks and recreation arrived, but died soon after. There were no signs of injury from a boat strike or anything like that. Why it died remains unknown.
So Bryan, in regards to your question about whether the video on youtube claiming it is a Megalodon is real or not… I guess you already know the answer.
FAKE
