Playin with whitesharks...


Finally, the BIG day of whiteshark-diving!!


After driving 2 hours from Capie past Hermanus,
a breakfast with the team and
shark- instructions,
we reached the place to get in the boat...







The driver, team- leader and
dive- instructor...




Some of the guys getting the cage ready...
makin sure it's tight to the boat...


The team being told what to do,
what NOT to do
and how to stay 'safe'...

SUPERexcited!



We had a film-dude on board as well that
made an under- and- over water movie
from the day!

We had a perfect day on sea!!



Ready to throw ourselves to the sharks...!!


Oh ma loooooord!!


This guy had fish-oil in the ocean
the whole time to attract the sharks...


...and these tuna- heads were thrown
out as bait for the sharks to nibble on!!


And the sharks came!!
All together 7 different ones...
All of them were ladies....ahhh!

They were from 3 to 4,5 meters long...






SO much FUN!!


I only have the over water pics,
but I can ASSURE you to have
the shark eye to eye under water,
was a real KICK!

The shark's slam it's body on the cage
and it's teeth biting all around you...
LOVED IT!!!
