The great white shark was pregnant, measured over six metres in length and was estimated to be 50 years old

At the time the fish was filmed it was pregnant and measured over six metres in length. Researchers estimated that the giant was also around 50 years old.

The footage shows Deep Blue swimming towards the divers inside their protective cage while under water in Mexico.
The fish swims alongside the cage and dwarfs the researchers watching on before turning slowly and approaching the video maker.

The shark then passes the second cage very closely and Mauricio is able to capture a quick glimpse of Deep Blue's huge teeth before she swims away again.
