Don't get me wrong, I never went in the water to see sharks, they just show up. The biggest I saw was a 6m white swimming over my head, in the Seychelles, in the Indian Ocean and the smallest were 60 cm 'rat fish' in the Puget Sound.
Face it folks when you are in the water and there isn't anyplace to go and you are confronted with a shark AND he is going to eat you, he will. If he doesn't eat you he leaves you alone - the choice is his!
You are so lucky to see all those sharks esp. the 6m white, the Shark of sharks, and able to tell ppl about it
Is he lucky in the sense that he saw one or that he lived through it and was able to tell his story?
