Kyyle23 Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I dont know how many of you enjoy this, but I have been watching Shark week since I was a kid, and it has never ceased to impress me. I was watching Air Jaws 2 last night, and watching 1+ ton sharks come flying out of the water chasing seals and fake seals was just incredible, especially the underwater cameras showing the actual thought process that some of the sharks take when considering prey. Anyone that thinks that a shark is a big dumb killing machine should sit down and watch some of these shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Love the commercials. Start out out those Canada commercials, like the guy sitting on his surf board-watching the sunset, Then pulled under water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zenryan Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I was watching the show with the shark that jumps out of the water down by Africa. If I'm ever in that area fishing and I see that, I might just s*** myself and start crying because I would be scared out of my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maggsmaggs Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Watched Jaws when I was five and have been freaked out at sharks since then. Hate watching them. I was scared of going in the water at the beach until like 10 because I thought sharks were there despite my mom telling me otherwise.

SoxFan1 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 When that scientist sat on the floating whale carcass and watched the sharks go at it, I thought that was the coolest thing. I'd totally do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreye Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 My 7 year old loves Shark Week already. Tuesday morning she woke me up asking, "What channel is the shark channel?" And then last night she was pissed, saying, "I want to see the ones where they bite people." She saw Jaws when she was about 4 (Only the end part, after the normal people get attacked) and now every time a movie with ocean scenes come on she says, "Ooo, is this Jaws?"

Stocking Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I freak myself out when paddling out all time, Jaws has permanently petrified me of sharks. However, I was able to swim with a white tip reef shark last winter while spearfishing, was one of the biggest thrills. Kind of a get me over the fear swim, didnt work. Still I would love to get in a cage in S. Africa with some great whites. I hear there is one here, great whites are just fairly rare here with the warm waters. Tigers are in abundance, my personal most feared shark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not true if you are considering all bites worldwide and not just major attack encounters. There were just under 200 total confirmed unprovoked attacks on divers (whether spearfishing or not) during the last century. In contrast, there were nearly 450 attacks on surfers and over 700 on shallow shoreline bathers.
