That was cool the first time they showed that but after three installments of that I have had enough great whites sharks jumping. Personally I would like to see a show on hammer heads, oceanic white tips, Small coastal sharks here in the USA or better yet a show on how they are captured, transported, cared for and researched at public aquariums. Just a couple of thoughts cause I am burnt on great whites.

That would be cool as well
I only saw about the last 20 mins of it, so I don't know what the start was like. What I saw, I did like though. Amazing power

" It's power,thats just Raw Power! " Shark week is awesome,I just wish it wasnt all the same shows every year.
 
You have to wonder when shark week shows are hosted by survivalists, pro stunt men, and thrill seekers rather then true scientists or biologists. Just shows that Discovery is only really looking at pumping ratings with fanatics rather then good old knowledge.

There was a docu a few years back that was titled "Sharks Under Glass" and was excellent for showing what it takes to maintain sharks in captivity. I have a copy and it is what I would rather see then another, what to do when faced with certain death in the jaws of a killer shark type show.

Me too! We almost had that when I was in MN. Maybe someone could do some A/B roll of moving sharks, then slap together a show for them.

You know Matt, I sure bet we could find a couple of guys doing some wild shark transport stuff to document without too much of a problem.:naughty:
 
i love shark week but i prefer the specials from a few years back that had a more scientific focus, the original air jaws and air jaws 2 were pretty interesting though
