"US Navy Plane Crash: Underwater Video Reveals Coral Reef Damage"

Underwater video released by the US Navy shows a plane that overshot a runway resting on a coral reef in Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii. The plane, which has been stuck for over a week, is partially supported by the reef, with the left engine resting on coral. The Navy is investigating the cause of the incident and has removed most of the fuel from the aircraft. Environmental concerns have been raised due to potential damage to the reef, and a damage assessment will be conducted once the plane is removed.

"Rarely Seen 30-Foot Whale Shark Amazes Spectators in Hawaii and New Jersey Waters"

Researchers captured rare underwater footage of a 30-foot whale shark swimming near Kāneʻohe Bay in Hawaii. The video shows the massive shark feeding on schools of nehu, or Hawaiian anchovy, using its huge mouth to create suction and funnel the fish into its mouth. The sighting is significant as whale sharks are rarely seen in Hawaiian waters. The footage also captured a variety of other predators and seabirds feeding on the nehu. The University of Hawaii reminds people to be respectful and not disturb these gentle giants, which can grow up to 40 feet and weigh up to 40 tons.
