Das Auto - Teaser!


Check this out!



So, what's it gonna be?
The video caption talks about a Beetle Shark Observation Cage and knowing the team who shot this, I'm fully expecting something totally epic!
Some info here and here.

Great to see that it's gonna be a Volkswagen.
It is them who pioneered amphibious cars with the infamous Schwimmwagen, and it just so happens that the very first Beetle, the KdF Wagen shared the same chassis. Then of course came the iconic Amphicar of the 60ies, much copied but never quite equaled when it comes to popularity.

And check out the sQuba by my nutty pal Frank Rinderknecht!
This would be the first fully functional submerged car - and I fully expect that Luke's team will regale us with something even more spectacular!



No pressure! :)

Shark Divers and RTSea Productions - spawning excellent pro-Shark media

Fantastic pic by Chip Scarlett

This is what Sharks need.

Shark Divers and RTSea Productions have helped the good people of Wildcoast/Costasalvaje produce a brilliant piece about Isla Guadalupe, one, if not the world's most iconic Great White dive site. This is but the latest in a long lineup of pro-Shark media spawned by this successful cooperative venture.

I've found (yes I speak Spanish) the mini-series highly informative and entertaining whilst clearly promoting a pro-Shark, pro-Industry, pro-research and conservation oriented message - as it should be.
Big Kudos and Thank You to everybody involved - and may many more such excellent productions follow!

Original stories here and here.
Enjoy!
