Whale Shark
I went swimming with these magnificent creatures and got inspired by its beauty.
+ Throttle - to start swimming
+ VTOL Up - to submerge
+ Roll - to swim right / left
+ For best experience, please use Medium or High Water Physics
==================================================
Swims at an incredible 7MPH top speed!! 2 times faster than the average whale shark.
A mobile friendly version can be found in the Predecessor
Everything in this design is slow so please be patient.
=================================================
Wiki: The whale shark (Rhincodon typus) is a slow-moving filter feeding shark and the largest known extant fish species. The largest confirmed individual had a length of 12.65 m (41.5 ft) and a weight of about 21.5 t (47,000 lb). Unconfirmed claims of considerably larger individuals, over 14 m (46 ft) long and weighing at least 30 t (66,000 lb), are not uncommon. It holds many records for sheer size in the animal kingdom, most notably being by far the largest living nonmammalian vertebrate. It is the sole member of the genus Rhincodon and the family, Rhincodontidae (called Rhiniodon and Rhinodontidae before 1984), which belongs to the subclass Elasmobranchii in the class Chondrichthyes. The species originated about 60 million years ago.
The whale shark is found in open waters of the tropical oceans and is rarely found in water below 22 °C (72 °F). Modeling suggests a lifespan of about 70 years, but measurements have proven difficult. They have very large mouths and are filter feeders, which is a feeding mode that occurs in only two other sharks, the megamouth shark and the basking shark. They feed almost exclusively on plankton and, therefore, are completely harmless to humans.

who here looked at this while looking around for planes and then was like, wait, that can't be real, then clicked in this, downloaded it and realized it was real
I remember swimming with these. They were so large and not the tamed ones i had to go on a 30 min boat ride to look for the whale sharks
they are massive in real life
