How big was your Megalodon?

This may be fun/interesting to all of you who own fossilized Megalodon teeth:

Mine were apparently about 4.3 and 7 meters long... big for a great white but just babies for Megalodon standards :cool:

Mine would be the same; between four and five metres.

Just over 5.5 m.

I am the one interested in marine biology and I don't have a tooth (ignore the frantic sobbing here)

I suppose I have to look out for a 12 inch tooth now LOL

I've come across some big ones but damn, they're expensive!

Rubecula

Not cheap but the dentist had a hell of a job getting the mega to open up

Yeah, I remember seeing one the size of a man's hand for upward of $200 in a souvenir shop in Florida.

Don't pay attention to Adam's opening post then, because he had one from a mega in the 7m range.:p
