If you can do math, you're a lot more afraid of mosquitoes and freeways. Just sayin'...

The first time was in the Bahamas. it was kind of hit and miss. we did swim with some but not as many as they seemed to make it.

the best so far that I have done is off the coast of California around the Farallon Islands. it was in a cage that kind of took away from the experience but nonetheless very exciting

The lifeguards here at Bora Bora do a fine job of keeping us abreast of the dangers.

Mine too, but I'd probably go into cardiac arrest when a 20 footer swam up to the cage.

It was a kite

quote:

The man — who has asked not to be identified — was flying a kite with his daughter “about six months ago” when the pair noticed the shadow looked a bit like a stingray.

“We saw the shadow of the kite in the water and she suggested to film it,” he said.

Was in orange beach one time and lost my rod around the second sand bar flipping my yak. Paddled in. Life guard had a couple mask so we went looking. Before we got in he was like by the way, there’s a 9’ hammerhead that’s been crushing up and down the sand bar. Saw it earlier. I was like great. Luckily we found it in a few minutes but definitely nerve wracking

I'm more afraid of them when I swim in the ocean.

I have swam with them off Pensacola, Bahamas and Virgin Islands. Most afraid in Pensacola. Those were big ones.
