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).
Using an anterior tooth with the tallest crown height available, NSM PV-19896 (12 cm (4.7 in) crown height), Shimada estimated a TL of 14.2 metres (47 ft). Using the overall tallest anterior tooth, FMNH PF 11306 (16.2 cm (6.4 in) cm total height), and using the Gottfried equation produced a TL estimate of 15.3 metres (50 ft).
