On Discovery.

I was flipping back and forth during the ball games. It interests me somewhat. But when they set up these dramatic encounters, with the dramatic music, you know it's bullshit. It's taped so you know they're not gonna show a shark ripping them to shreds. Plus you would have heard about it before it aired.

eli roth is hosting "shark after dark" which is just a round table with some of the people involved with the episodes. i like it. but it does get old after a while. i usually watch 2-3 episodes through the week.

I still get sucked in to watch. What I find amusing is how all the shows go out of their way to emphasize how sharks aren't out to kill people, then immediately tell us how the jaws of a shark could easily rip your limbs off.

Just watched some at the gym. They were trying to install a FIN CAM....its a clamp, that goes on the fin and has a camera attached.

of course you need to then install it while the great white is swooping by the boat trying to eat the chum you put out for it...what could go wrong?

Sounds like trying to swim with an alligator.

I don't know how these Carolina crackers are still going in the water with these shark attacks.

I once vacationed in Myrtle Beech. There were no reports of shark attacks. But I was still nervous while I was in the water. I guess like a lot of people, the movie Jaws made me nervous. Then something hit my leg and I panicked and ran out of the water. I don't know what it was. It wasn't a shark. But that was my last time in the water on that trip.

I saw that. They successfully got the clamp on, though. But that dumb ass had his hand dangerously close to the jaws as it was chomping.
