"A Great White Shark is about the size of the clasper, or penis, of a male Megalodon," Peter Klimley
The prehistoric shark Megalodon probably grew to 60 feet (18 meters), and it is popularized today as the largest shark ever. [Discovery Channel, 2013]
Its closest living relative is not the Great White Shark like previously thought.
It was calculated that C. megalodon had a bite force stronger then a T-rex.
C. megalodon never actually ate dinosaurs, it came much later in history.
The Discovery Channel did a mockumentary, where they faked a Megalodon attack, and that drew in 4.8 million viewers.
