Hey guys don't miss "Oceans Super Predator" on ABC 1 on Sunday 7.30pm.

Then you'll be a full bottle, on why I don't swim much here.

Dave is a great guy and some of the gear he uses has the Chook touch.

The best thing is they play volley ball with you for hours before killing you....just for fun

Sailing on a 24' boat in False Bay, South Africa when I was a young'un, a great white that was a few feet longer than the boat came alongside and had a look at us. A flick of the tail and the shark disappeared forward and down at what looked like 20+ knots.

They prefer seals as tucker, but I still wouldn't swim there.

For anybody who likes audio podcasts, this is a story broadcast yesterday on Canadian Public Radio about the first Orca captured and put on display

www.cbc.ca/radio/ideas

as recently as 1964.

I watched this a couple months back.

Humans are the real killers... genocidal killers.
