Megalodon Unearthed (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798999731999)

There is so much we still don't know about this ferocious predator that left behind the giant teeth we love to hunt for. I teamed up with a fellow diver and paleontologist, Dr. Harry M Maisch, IV, who has authored numerous studies, to review the latest research and provide a more accurate understanding of Megalodon. For instance, the old wise tale that for every inch a tooth is long equals 10 feet of shark length. A 2025 study revealed that Megalodon was leaner and longer, possibly reaching lengths of up to 80 feet, rather than the previously reported 50 to 60 feet.
