    Quite a good report. In this case I was running out of bottom time and desperate to avoid a long decompresion stop with this shark that dwarfed my cage and made me feel very uncomfortable inside the tight frame. After it had circled a number or times, I gained enough courage to confront it and after 14 minutes finally it went away.


    Since my first close encounter in 1992 I have been able to observe Great Whites as they plan their various hunting methods on me. The usual method of a keen animal is to approch close at first and back off to an out of view circle with a few attempts of coming in at different approaches. There is no doubt that when this behavior happens I am being hunted as prey and I ensure I stay tightly on the bottom. Other times they just pass by on a mision to get somewhere. I actually completely forgot I had a video camera on my cage until after I got over the initial scare of the shark, and finally got back to my cage safely, and turned on my camera.


    I have worked with CSIRO and Fisheries and currently carry an ac0ustic receiver on my cage but it is rare to come across a Great White with a tag. I tagged the first Great White in my Area off Esperance, Western Australia and am currently working with wafilmmakers who put this video on youtube.
