ITS enormous bulk could mean it is mistaken for a prehistoric megalodon, but this is possibly the world's biggest ever great white shark caught on camera. The more than 20 feet (nearly 7m) long sea beast was filmed by cage divers in Mexico. The sheer scale of the monster fish is jaw dropping when seen next to the divers.
But at 60 or so tons, the middle Eocene Basilosaurus was certainly the biggest prehistoric whale that ever lived, outweighing even the much later Leviathan (which itself may have tangled with the biggest prehistoric shark of all time, Megalodon) by 10 or 20 tons.
