Great White Shark Gets Serious Hang Time Off The Coast Of South Africa

Originally posted on Reddit, this video of what experts say is a great white shark getting solid air off the coast of Mossel Bay, South Africa, should serve as a reminder that you should never go for a dip off the coast of Mossel Bay in water deep enough for white sharks.

The experts also say that's a bait seal being used by videographers to trick the shark into losing its mind over a meal. It's like putting a box of 50 wings & endless draft beers in front of a fat guy and telling him to go to town. Then he bites into the wings and finds out they're vegan tofu wings and he's washing it all down with non-alcoholic beer. Huge letdown and it'll make a shark (or fat guy) fight back the next time.

Don't be surprised when one of these sharks eats a videographer or a fat guy takes out his frustration on a buffet.

Interested in getting a cage and having an up close and personal visit with the sharks? Sharkbookings.com says it'll give you a voucher for a return trip if you don't see a great white while in a cage. A dive (no technical skills required) costs 1600 ZAR which equals around $91 dollars:

Are you looking to go see the Mossel Bay sharks sky out of the South Atlantic Ocean? It's a 4 1/2 hour drive east of Cape Town. Put it on your bucket list, but don't forget I warned you these sharks are pissed over being baited by fake seals.
