NEW ORLEANS, La. (KGO) -- Amazing video captured a giant school of hundreds of sharks off the coast of Louisiana.

Experts say they were likely following smaller fish as the fish moved into warmer waters. The predators were heading north after migrating south for the winter.

Just to give you some perspective on the size of the sharks, the video was taken about 70 feet above the surface of the water from an oil platform.
