OceanX | Did You Know Sharks Can Detach Their Jaws? @OceanX | Uploaded June 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
This is not a Goblin Shark. This footage, captured by @mattprior22 and @southwestrocksdive shows a sand tiger shark, also known as a grey nurse shark, detaching its jaws.
Sharks are able to detach both their lower and upper jaws from their skull to help them catch prey. They have a high biting force due to the muscles that attach to the jaws, and typically kill their prey with strong head shaking once bitten.
