I don't think anyone understands how long ago 500 years is, myself included.
this shark is so damn old it was around before the √ symbol.
This shark is so old it predates the discovery of the grand canyon.
Its so old graphite Pencils didn't even exist
The EARTH ORBING THE SUN WASNT DISCOVERED YET.
Funny you should say that last part. The shark's estimated age is 392 years (500+ is an upper estimate) which would mean it was born in 1632, the same year that Galileo disproved the earth orbiting the sun.
For the study, the team examined 28 sharks that had died after being caught as by-catch in fishing nets. While there is some uncertainty in the age estimates, Nielsen stated that the most likely age for the oldest shark was about 390 years, with a 95 percent certainty range of 272 to 512 years.
Christ.
That's so fucking cool. Imagine interacting with a creature that could have been spotted by Christopher Columbus.
It could be lying about its age. Don't trust it.
Just typed in a random date to get past the age verification and see the porn.
Doesn't look a day over 450.
