Incredible stroke of good luck!!!!!!!


YOU HAVE TO READ THIS FIRST BEFORE LOOKING AT THE PICTURE..

Family on holiday in Australia for a week and a half when husband, wife and their 15 year old son decided to go scuba diving. The husband is in the navy and has had some scuba experience. His son wanted a picture of his mum and dad in all their gear so he got the under water camera ready to go.

When it came to taking the picture the dad realized that the son looked like he was panicking as he
took it and gave the 'OK' hand sign to see if he was all right.

The son took the picture and swam to the surface and back to the boat as quick as he could so the mum and dad followed to see if he was OK. When they got back to him he was scrambling onto the boat and
absolutely panicking. When the parents asked why he said 'there was a shark behind you.' The dad thought he was joking but the skipper of the boat said it was true but they wouldn't believe him. As soon as they got back to the hotel they loaded the picture onto the laptop and this is what they saw.

You can have similar photos taken with crocodiles if you wish.

Nobody can see the thick glass between the animal and the humans.

Makes a good photo - can even get you on to a blog in the USA!!!

Mate,
Are you saying that Australian fishing boat Captains, one of which verified, are not to be trusted? If we can't believe a sea skipper, most of whom are ranked at the top of the "trust scale" just below the Pope and circus producers, who can we trust? Give me a break.

I'm told that the Pope can be a bit suss so that only leaves circus producers!

since there are no great whites of that size in captivity, it's more likely to be a photoshop

Or magnifying glass?

There was a photo on the internet a few years back of a great white leaping out of the water and biting a helicopter off the coast of South Africa which was fake. Have you seen what a salmon shark looks like? Sincerely Paul

This is what I was looking for. When I first moved to Orange County Sea World in San Diego had a baby grey whale named J.J. I saw on the news yesterday that there is an orphaned beaked whale in Florida. The mother beached herself.Sincerely Paul
