X-RAY Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Let me tell you diving in general is great, diving with sharks is just killer!!! One thing though, don't grab the sharks tail! When I was a crew member on board a dive boat one of the guests went to the bottom of Bull Run and held on to a grey shark's tail. Lets just say that they let go real fast!

Dan 88 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Some people say I'm crazy for wanting to get in a cage and go under water with Great Whites. I remember a place on TV in South Africa that offered that experience to people with enough dough. Someday, it will happen and it will be SWEET!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pastafarian Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Saw something on discovery or history channel the other night. Somehow the shark got into the cage with the diver and couldn't get out. Couldn't quite get to the diver but it kept nipping the regulator out of his mouth. Very cool thing to try, but I'm going to ram my car into your shark cage a couple of times to make sure it holds.

ChernayaAkula Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Some people say I'm crazy for wanting to get in a cage and go under water with Great Whites. <...> Nuff said! On the other hand, it must be awesome. Sharks rule! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve N Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 We went swimming at the VA Beach Nats in '02. Some 8-10-year-old girl came running out of the water screaming "Shark! Shark!" I looked out, and there was a pod of a half-dozen or so dolphins cruising about 50 yards offshore..what a cool sight! I'd never seen them in the wild before, and had no idea wild ones got that close to people. SN Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scorvi Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 OK How I divide my stash if a shark accident happens....very funny guys!! Oh well Some cool shots. Great White cage dive is on my list ..Along with a Whale shark dive in the sea of Cortez Perhaps a deep dive off of Malapusca (Phillipines) to see the rare & elusive Thresher....besides they seem to get all the test shots of these new kits before anyone else. Check out IPMS Phillipines!!!?? Steve Quote Link to post Share on other sites
