In my travels over the world the last 5 years ive seen some truly amazing stuff and done some pretty awesome things...
I never really posted any photos of my trips, but I spent last winter in Australia where I made one of my childhood dreams come true, Cage Diving with Great White Sharks.
The only thing Ive done that was more impressive then this was sail across the Carribean on a 15ft sailboat through some pretty epic storms and probably the most gorgeous beaches in the world (San Blas Archipellago), but thats another thread
However, I was so impressed by these animals that I thought id share some photos with my fellow monkeys.
These are all taken in front of the Neptune Islands off the coast of Port Lincoln, South Australia.
The company was Calypso Star and even though it was the most expensive one, i can definitly recommend them to anyone whos ever lucky enough to go on a trip like this...
The day started out with a small briefing.
They showed us some medium sized "Jaws" to get everyone excited, i was definitly impressed.
The view off the deck proved to be great later in the day when the actual sharks were around. At one point a couple of 5m Great Whites were swimming around the boat checking out what was for lunch that day.
Prepping the chum to lure the sharks in, the only company with a license to do so in south Australia.
Didnt take long before some big boys showed up...
Enter the cage.
Close Ups on request!
Say Hi
Never felt scared, just really impressed by these magnificent creatures. The cage was obviously for protecting the sharks in case they wanted to pick a fight with me. With all the weight I put on in Oz they must have thought Id be quite the catch
All in all a truly awesome day and a great experiance, if u ever have the chance, go for it!
