Girl & a Shark video

  • It was great how the white tips came out of the blackness at the beginning. Ballsy gal - Pelagic White Tips are very unpredictable. I've never seen one. I know they exist in Red Sea (Ihab), western Pacific, and probably lots of other places. Beautiful animal! :thumbsup2:

  • The footage of the shark is beautiful but that is not the shark to be playing around with. She also put herself in some pretty awkward and vulnerable positions.


    Great footage and excellent editing.

    Ditto!! Great when someone articulates what I was thinking :laughing:

    Julie(Shark Angel) and Paul are pros, she has dove with a lot of eaters.;)
    Paul is a very skilled cinematographer.
    Look at the straight out pectoral fins on the Oceanic W.Tip...very happy and relaxed dive partner for the time being.

  • I have a problem with the image of sharks they portray in the video. Click on the link in the end of the video to find out about Shark Angels. Granted after a few dives with a shark in a none feeding or territorial mode, you learn to recognize the behavior of a relaxed shark and are probably safe. At least for the time being as Don said. But that's not the idea this ad attempts to plant in its target audience. Regardless, deep down people are and will continue to be scared shittless of sharks no matter what anyone tells them, Darwinism at it's finest. But the attempt still feels condescending.

  • What impressed me, and why I posted to share: was the beauty, the grace, the symmetry, of the dance between two beautiful creatures in an exceptionally IMHO well crafted example of cinematography.

    That's all
