@Mikhail

I agree, it;s a fake. I wanted to believe, and as Serena notes, the editing was just good enough to fool my on the first run through. Damn shark surfing propaganda films!

That is pretty cool but it is fake. Sorry to bubble-burst but you can see the wake of the boat towing the guy.

I would totally do that. I can’t wait to swim with the sharks in the San Francisco Bay next month!

Wouldn’t the shark probably be swimming in a more erratic path if it were real? From what I can tell, it just goes in a perfectly straight line the entire time.

Not to mention the fact that the fin doesn’t really tilt at times, or get lower or higher in the water.

But still neat. And obviously well-edited.

@Mary-Kathryn:

That is awesome, I have yet to see them, but I think if the shark is real, he’s a look. He should even MC the event

@Tom:

On watching it a few more times you may be right, the cuts are pretty suspicious, and the fin looks far too big, it looks a lot like Jaws. However, I really want it to be true, so maybe that is why I want to suspend all disbelief.

There is no way that is real. Not that I don’t think people are that stupid but . . .
