I watched a guy get tail slapped right in the small of his back while he was de-hooking a 7’ blacktip he pulled up on the beach last year. Can’t imagine getting tail slapped by this monster!

Looks like a 12’-14’ maybe. Add another 8-9’for the tail height. 32’ from nose to fin “estimate”? Use a ruler!

Never mind that 510 kilo is about 1100, not 1200 lbs, but a 32-foot shark is going to weigh more than 510 kilo.
And that photo does not show a 32-ft shark unless they measured him nose to fin and back up again.

That's a thresher shark, not a "trasher" shark. Either it has two names or the author spelled it wrong.
