Logical Equation

1. Human population increasing at an alarming rate.
2. World temperatures rising.
3. More people go in the water.
4. Shark food sources (as well as everything else in the ocean) are being wiped out by humans.
5. Sharks consequently hunt in places they would not normally hunt.
6. Humans (particularly Americans) resemble blubber rich pinnipeds more every year.
7. Humans are relatively slow, clumsy, and devoid of natural defense mechanisms, particularly in the ocean.
8. Sharks are the perfect ocean predator.
Considering the above factors, shouldn't we actually be shocked that there aren't more shark attacks rather than being surprised when the occasional mistake happens?

What a fantastic grouping of films. I've been following you for years and think you should list all your websites, present and past, on your identification page. You are really rolling along. Keep it up! DR

Oh, the glory days of drenching the bay with the blood of majestic animals.

Site of the Richmond whaling station closed in the early 70s

Chopping the bait down to a smaller size. The bait used on this boat is skip jack tuna.

Bait is pulled out of the shark's reach, but brings it close enough to the cage for the divers to get a close look. Not only are the tour operators prohibited from intentionally feeding the sharks, but they avoid it for the purpose of not continuously buying more bait.

Sometimes the shark will launch itself from the deep in such a stealthy manner that the bait handler does not pull away on time. A small snack for the shark, but hardly a reason to stop eating its normal diet of large, fat rich seals.

First of all, no one, not even Andre Hartman or the guys from ‘Jackass’ are gonna get in the water during a feeding frenzy

The photographer managed to snap this photo just before the turtle ripped him to pieces. Witnesses say the turtle was actually 'smiling' as it tore through the poor diver's flesh.

A herd of rare, 2-legged elephant seals await their chance to swim with the sharks.
