This was an email doing the rounds at work. It's quite scary, really!


YOU MUST READ THIS BEFORE SCROLLING DOWN TO THE PICTURE!

Family on holiday in Australia for a week and a half when husband, wife and their 15 year old son decided to go scuba diving. The husband is in the navy and has had some scuba experience. His son wanted a picture of his mum and dad in all their gear so he got the under water camera ready to go. When it came to taking the picture the dad realized that the son looked like he was panicking as he took it and gave the 'OK' hand sign to see if he was all right.

The son took the picture and swam to the surface and back to the boat as quick as he could so the mum and dad followed to see if he was OK. When they got back to him he was scrambling onto the boat and absolutely panicking. When the parents asked why, he said 'there was a shark behind you.' The dad thought he was joking but the skipper of the boat said it was true but they still wouldn't believe him. As soon as they got back to the hotel they loaded the picture onto the laptop and this is what they saw.

(Try and tell me you wouldn't have emptied your
Entire digestive system right at the point you saw it)

Would you have stayed to take the picture??

Maybe what saved them was that the shark wasn't hungry, they were in the water not on the surface, and there was no fear coming from them - only because they were not aware. Probably better that the kid didn't point for them to look behind them.3834

Wow thats a shark. Spent a few months in the bahamas doing research on them but luckily not white sharks!! only bull sharks, lemons, reef were the dangerous ones.

They are not that bad, mind. Bloody Jaws destroyed the shark!

It was probably just wondering what was going on in its territory.

NICE STORY THOUGH!

My first thoughts were it was a set-up. But, I have it on good authority that it is genuine. I traced the email back to it's originator who tells me it is real. If you read the story, it doesn't read like a joke (which I thought it was going to be when I first started reading it).

And Toby says he's studied sharks and he seems convinced that it's real. But I'm sure everyone will have their own opinion and I can't say 100% either way so folks will just have to decide for themselves! ;)

I had planned to go Scuba Diving during my holiday at the end of the month. I don't think I'll bother now. :eek: :eek: :D
