Stacey Farrell, tour guide at Heritage Tours & Safaris, South Africa, is the filmmaker. According to Farrell, the hippopotamus waste attracts fish , and the fish herd is responsible for the bull shark's arrival.

"This is probably the best place for the shark to find its prey. The water is very muddy and the shark starts hitting the hippopotamus, igniting the melee , " Earth Touch News said on July 14. .

Cow sharks are aggressive fish and have the strongest bite force among sharks . The adult bull shark can catch with nearly 612kg bite force, more powerful than white shark or hammerhead shark, according to the study of jaw and shark jaws published in Zoology magazine.
