Awesome video.

Looked like he was checking you out and didn't like what he saw.

I shot the first jack and it grazed off his head (thought I missed) then the next I hit square and then realized it was a bad round. so I reloaded and there he was 3.00 min into my dive........needless to say I came up shortly after that and was excited to be out of the water. we moved .8 of a mile and I went back to work. but the rest of the day I looked over my shoulder a few extra times!

Re: Great white off Sebastian

If you watch - the White Shark yeild's to the diver immediatly and swims off.

Maybe somebody will now believe Danny Jordan's and I sighting back in July 2005' off of Jupiter!

Re: Great white off Sebastian

Wow.. Intense moment to be alone at 170'.. Albeit was probably more intense once you were off the bottom about 40 feet into your ascent!!! Could have been ugly If you were wrestling a 45 lb bleeder whe she swam up....
