Some ppl know I love sharks. VERY VERY MUCH.

Being bored I browsed some shark encounters.

Post some up here.


This pic was taken from a pleasure cruise boat, that stopped in the middle of the ocean, and took photos of the ppl swimming. Then this happend:

This is a father was took some pictures of his children in very shallow water in Australia, when Mr Great white showed up for the party

This is from a group of kayakers now studying great whites. check the size of the shark vs the kayak

Here is a great white that was spotted in a river, and even swam into a lake. there are even videos on line if you go google. check the depth of the water, and bear in mind, this is not the known freshwater killer, BULL/Zambezi shark. This is a saltwater Great White, spotted 2KM from the ocean in a river going into a lake.

Some pics are a bit scary.

Maplassie,
Where did your love for sharks come from?

Grew up in durban, and my uncle is a marine bioligist / was a marine biologist.

Allwas went out on the boats with him and read his books and stuff.

So much so that I wanted to become one at a stage, just to study Great white Sharks. I love them to bits.
