Is This Shark Picture & Divers For Real?

Posted by DiveMaster in Scuba Myths - Confirmed or Busted?

Dive Shark

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 buy generic cialis 20mg a pic of his mum and dad in all their gear so he got the underwater camera on the way.

When it came to taking the pic the dad realized that the son looked like he was panicking as he took the picture and gave the “OK” hand sign to see if he was alright. The son took the pic 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 shaking really bad.  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 and that they wouldn’t believe him if he told them what it was.

As soon as they got back to the hotel they put the pic onto the laptop and that is what they saw.

Is this for real?  Don’t know. I say Myth/  What do you think?

    I say Myth too. There’s no way you wouldn’t notice a large and powerful presence like, two feet from your head. Besides, a shark that large would have been noticed as he swam up behind them.
