Film Theory: Baby Shark is ADOPTED... No Really! - Summary

Summary

A theory is proposed that the music video "Baby Shark" by Pinkfong is not what it seems. The narrator argues that Daddy Shark and Mommy Shark are not Baby Shark's biological parents. This is supported by the fact that Baby Shark's features, such as his snout and tail fin, are different from those of his parents. After measuring the sharks' sizes using pixel measurements, the narrator concludes that Baby Shark is a long fin mako shark, while Mommy Shark and Daddy Shark are bull sharks. The narrator suggests that the family unit is not a biological one, but rather a survival strategy in which the sharks have formed a group to protect themselves from predators and hunt for food. However, this arrangement is not sustainable in the long term, as Baby Shark will eventually grow to be much larger than his parents and may eventually attack them.
