Can you say "deathwish"? I wonder what he thought he'd do with the speargun. It is too long to commit suicide when the shark bites his legs off.:eek2:

 

[David M]

You said it Cutter! That dude is friggin nuts. Makes for a good video and/or entry into the yearly Darwin awards.

That dude is nothing more than Timothy Treadwell in a wet suit. F with the bull long enough, you'll get the horns- I promise!

 

[OneMoreCast]

That's the bear guy right? The one that got eaten... and was stupid enough to bring a girl out there...who also got eaten...
I'd put this a55 clown in the same category too. With that size animal, it only takes once :boat: :helpsmilie: :death:

 

[TimeFlies]

That is craaazy!!! He ceratinly looked like he likes playing with death.

 

[saltfly]

Now you can see why I don't use live bait.:eek2:

 

[Capt Harry]

Saw that one a couple of weeks ago. Those guys have some big cahones.:eek2:
The spear gun was actually a tranquelizer gun, that's how they got the shark to be so mellow.
Really though,

• No chum in the water to excite them
• Not on the feed, just currious
• Actually a very graceful animal with a bad rap

Would I do it? Nope!!!!! But, it does show that it is a beautiful animal that can be somewhat gentle in nature.

One day those clowns will get in the water one too many times. Mark my word.

Dumber than a box of rocks.

Natural Selection at work.

Darwin will handle those two, just give him time.

Initiative vs Judgment

Some fantastic underwater photography. Great initiative in attempting something like that now judgment on the other hand . . .? Wonder if they will make it to the age of most of us on this board? What's the old saying: "Older age and treachery will overcome youth and inexperience any day?"

It's probably not as dangerous as you think. I assume that the guys doing this know quite a lot about great whites. I have no basis for this statement but- it's probably safer than getting in the car to go to work. Would I do it? Sorry, I just ate and I can't swim for a while.

 

[fishooter]

That guy is the leading Great White researcher in South Africa. He knows what he's doing and takes it quite seriously. He is well aware it's a risky undertaking. Notice how the shark turns to him when he turns away...that's just exactly what it's waiting for! I suspect he was at his tolerance limit and got out of the water immediately upon completion of that video clip, which would be a WHOLE lot longer than I would be there.
