On Mon., Nov.2, 2009 at approximately 10am I saw a thresher shark approximately 7 feet long overall, jump, flip and spin about 6 times in a row. It got about 3 feet in the air, enough for its whole body to clear the water as it performed its awesome gymnastics. It was not as graceful as a spinner dolphin but certainly spectacular. This took place about 1 mile from shore off the coast of Huntington Beach, CA, on a sunny day with very little wind and nothing else going on nearby. I was delivering a catamaran from Long Beach to San Diego and travelling under power. At one point, the shark was about 20 feet from our bow then stopped jumping as we went by.

Yes,common thresher, fox shark, sea fox, swiveltail, thrasher.
Anything bigger than 19ft. The thresher's most relatie cousin is the blue shark.
A whale shark is a relatively "friendly" shark. It eats plankton and other small organisms. While the thresher shark can easily fit inside the whale sharks mouth, the whale shark has no desire to consume it. So no, it can't eat a thresher shark. It is not fast enough. -MNM

Thresher sharks avoid humans. There is only one known case in the history of record keeping where a thresher shark bit a human. It was provoked by the human (probably fishing), and was a non-fatal incident.
Mainly bony fish.
