You would not get me in one of those shark cages, not for eleventy squillion cents. I'm guessing there was some degree of "wrestling" going on under the surface. Yikes.

The E on the end makes all the difference.

More untreated waste just went into the sea!

Putting yourself in the way of a shark. What could possibly go wrong?

I'd have to assume the shark was actually very panicked to find itself stuck in a cage and just wanted to get out. Otherwise, I have no idea how that dude survived. How do you fight off a full grown shark in what is, basically, an underwater phone booth?

According to the video blurb (which I have now read), the diver ended up outside the bottom of the cage and was able to let the shark do its thing until it popped out, then he calmly swam back up into the cage. Still, I would have been a basket case for weeks. I'm not keen on any kind of sea critter, let alone a shark. Two incidents from my youth saw to that:
 
1) In Sardinia I was lying on an inflatable bed out on the ocean and a huge wave crashed over me and slopped a large jellyfish on my stomach. I had to lift it off, and the stings hurt like billy-o. 
 
2) In Corfu I was, again, on an inflatable bed except that this time I looked down into a calm ocean to see a giant stingray relaxing in the shade about a foot beneath me. I was absolutely petrified and didn't even want to put my hands in the water to paddle back to shore. Meanwhile, the current took me out further and further to sea, and I was about a quarter mile from the shore when the little basterd decided to go run some stingray errands or whatever it is they do.

That's a very amusing mental image........
 
Oh well, this guy is scared enough, I guess I'd better go and bag some shrimps for stingray jr's supper now....
 
People need to learn that the sea is full of things whose job it is to let us know that we don't belong in there.

That's what I don't like about the sea. Too much chance of perishing for my tastes. I'd like to think there's some kind of fun packed Spongebob Squarepants type world down there but all of my observations so far have drawn a blank. Just nasty looking things with dead eyes and sharp teeth.
