awsome vid... but why would it not look real is the question. to many people make sharks out to be so vicious . ive done many dives with sharks and thats nothing out of the ordinary. sharks are what got me into this hobby. damsels are alot meaner then sharks as most of us know lol

Exactly, I notice he has his "fire extinguisher" with him. I think that if he totally trusted them that he would have nothing but his wits.

I thought it was real but these days one can create some convincing forgeries.
My guess is they have studied this group of whites for some time but I thought whites ranged great distances. Its an Italian site so I wonder if this is in the med?

Watch the divers body language as well as the sharks, very cool stuff.

I know i always question stuff i watch online now. theres a few videos that ive seen and thought were real but turned out to be fake. i had a few to many beers when i read this last nite so i was replying more as a joke but my post didnt come out right. Its hard enough for me to type and try to get my point across on here with out the beer so its almost impossible when i have a few to many :lol:

Peter benchley spoke out in his final days about his guilt for making people think Great Whites are people hunters with the Jaws movies. He mentions a dive where he was coming around one side fo a wreck and a great white was coming around the other and he said he literally scared the crap out of the shrk and it shot off in another direction. Of course, I've never been with great whites, but I love sharks and the feeling of diving with them. I haven't had enough.

I know the best trip i ever took was to go diving with sharks and i dont think ill ever do anything else that was as fun as that. after thats is when i got on here and wanted to start a shark tank but i got into the reefs instead. so its all the sharks fault that i got into this whole expensive hobby lol

Where did you go?
I was in the pacific back in 01, saw allot of white tips when snorkeling right off the beach and diving. Closest I came to one was maybe 10 feet.

I don't know about you but i could spend far more on diving equipment and trips than i do on my tanks!
