That is crazy. Was there no boat for them to go back to? Did he hold onto the fin the entire time? It is amazing that the shark didn't actually get any of them for two hours.

Not only were they unable to get out of the water... they spent two hours rolling tape.

Smells fishy to me too.

Wonder how much air was left in his tank when he was finished. Two hours of fighting with a shark, plus whatever time he was down before this all started.

I can't view the videos on the computer I'm using. Does he have a standard 1 tank set-up? I can't remember.
