The largest and widest tooth available to Perez et al., GHC 6 (13.3 cm (5.2 in) crown width), produced estimates ranging from 17.4 to 24.2 meters (57 to 79 ft) with a mean estimate of 20.3 metres (67 ft). [6] Cooper et al. (2022) digitised a megalodon vertebral column of ~150 vertebrae, IRSNB P 9893, and attempted a 3d reconstruction of megalodon.
In 2020, Cooper and his colleagues reconstructed a 2D model of megalodon based on the dimensions of all the extant lamnid sharks and suggested that a 16 meters (52 ft) long megalodon would have had a 4.65 m (15.3 ft) long head, 1.41 m (4 ft 8 in) tall gill slits, a 1.62 m (5 ft 4 in) tall dorsal fin, 3.08 m (10 ft 1 in) long pectoral fins, and ...

A largest verified specimen is 12.65 m [2], however, several specimens over 18 m in length have been reported. [3])and Carcharodon megalodon (Average estimated adults size about 16 - 18 m, and a largest size of 20.3 m was extrapolated from ontogenetic trends of the great white shark by Gottfried et al. 1996. [4]) to a human Homo sapiens (180 cm).
