That's an awesome fish...I don't want to diminish what a huge shark that is...but one of the guys mentions that Great White has nothing to fear...he didn't see the CBS Evening News I saw several years ago where a 7 TON Killer Whale tossed a larger GW around like a rag doll after it got too close to some young Orcas in a pod out in the Pacific...I've spent hours searching for that video...there are plenty of Orca VS Great White videos, but NOT the one I saw...some pretty hokey...CBS has it under wraps I guess...the whale tossed the shark well into the air and CRASHED it when it came back down to the surface of the water...the Great White never had a chance...nature has an equalizer for most anything...

I remember seeing something like that...but I think it was on Nat-Geo channel.

Maybe CBS loaned it out to NG...it was back when Dan Rather anchored CBS...I don't like him, never did, but I remember him introducing the video...

I may be remembering some other video...maybe the kiila whale were eatting seals? Hard to say with my CRS condition.
At any rate, my wife said she aint gettin in the water at the beach anymore after seeing the size of the great white swimmin around.

One of the hardest things I've done over my lifetime was watching my kids play in the surf...the deeper they got, the more nervous I got...cuz I know what is out there and how close they come to shore...

Yeah, makes me nervous too.
But I think the statistics show that more people die each year from being hit in the head by falling coconuts than from shark attacks...never looked it up but heard it on talk radio, so it MUST be true.

LOL!!...haven't seen the numbers on falling coconuts, but sounds pretty slim...and that 's the only solace I had to keep me from acting crazy enough to tell my children; No, you can't play in the water at the beach...
