The Great White


The Great White is a truly beautiful creature, it's just misunderstood - fault mainly lying in Steven Spielberg's wallet. 

I think ever since the age of about 12/13, I have been fascinated by sharks, mainly the Great White. It would be a dream if I had the opportunity to swim with one, and I do plan on making that happen before I die, i'd love to join a team that catches and tags Great Whites, studying their entire lives. I probably should have done a degree to do with marine biology, however science wasn't my strong point, in fact, I don't think I have a strong point (!)

Whenever I go home, and after I've caught up on the daily programmes, it's straight to the documentary channel for a shark related programme, recently discovered is a programme called Shark Men California, which is on every day at 2pm on the National Geographic Channel. I did series link it, but knowing my family, they have probably deleted it.. :| 

It's a programme about tagging sharks, and when watching it with my mother last week, she called the men mental as there were two camera men who got in the water with the shark filming what happened underneath the water. Luckily for her, I didn't mention that, that is actually something that I can only dream of, however, I think that is one ambition, I probably will never be able to follow through...

Something to think about........... Would people be terrified of Goldfish if SS had based his 1975 film on them rather than Sharks....
