Well well.
Story here.
Would that be a bait crate in the background? Would that be in Fla State waters = would they be feeding illegally? And who's the fucking genius operator who built that flimsy "Shark cage" (!) and enabled that shit?
Questions questions!
Anyway, enjoy!
PS - So, it turns out that it was a fake, see the comments section; but lo, it gets even better, to wit Kevin Harris the voyeuristic parasite vs Chris Hartzell the pompous bloviating fireman right here - and in case you should have wondered, I'm 100% with Paul Friese!

I was wondering why her subscription website is down.
Sigh.
Ok. We started a global shark diving movement in 2000. It reached its zenith from 2011-15 with a veritable tsunami of great works, bans, education, conservation opportunities and operator streamlining. Plus a few true leaders and standouts who came forward to amaze the world.
Then...what the fuck happened?
Also, "Porn Star n' Sharks" to promote what now?
Questions indeed. At one time I had thought the Florida shark diving ban was done in haste by politicians who knew nothing. Now I am of the opinion that these politicians were smarter than I gave them credit for and they understood their electorate better than I ever could.
Give most folks a remarkable opportunity and they will run with.
Give a few folks the same and they will jam a blubbery "porn star" into a janky cage and call that conservation.
Sigh.
Hah!
Looks who comes crawling out from the retirement woodwork at the mention of porn! :)
Welcome back!
Indeed, sigh.
I say, Dolphinization (re-read that first post) plus Troglodyte Shark Diving - and things continue to get worse not better.
Oh well - it is what it is!
One more thing...because you just know I LOVES ME a good conspiracy. Last time I saw gouts of blood in the water (gouts I say!) the water was not "red" like that. It was kind of brownish...with some red in there.
So, you think they faked it like the moon landing or was it legit?
What's done is done and for others to care more than I do. Gouts I say!
Methinks this is legit = merely some creative white balancing/editing - but frankly who knows & at this point, who cares!
Of course I believe it was old Socrates that said, "there's nothing new under the sun."
Seriously, nothing new @ 2.31 - shot 4 long years ago:

Apparently it's fake, another company was contacted to film the shark attack weeks ago and they refused so they turned to this one instead.
Update: The film crew approached Bryce Rohrer, from Florida Shark Diving, to help them "fake" this shark attack. 100% Alternative Facts shark attack.
Thanks! :)
So who did enable the shoot?
After Bryce? They probably did it themselves. That made for TV and Discovery Shark Week approved, "Janky Shark Cage" is a dead giveaway that no one with any street cred was actually involved.....wait a sec, where SVS these days?
The coconut wireless is whispering, Calypso Dive Charters> - check out the vessel here & compare to the video.
In view of the looming Florida-centric federal ban on Shark feeding, this is truly as reckless and stupid as it gets.
