| [00:00.18] | Narration: Although experienced, |
| [00:01.37] | cameraman Richard Woolocombe was understandably anxious. |
| [00:05.10] | Richard: I have never dived with tiger sharks. |
| [00:07.97] | And I'm incredibly excited on the one hand to see tiger sharks, |
| [00:13.05] | but also somewhat reticent, |
| [00:14.83] | knowing they have such a dangerous reputation |
| [00:17.71] | Narration: So shark expert and photographer Doug Perrine was hired to watch his back. |
| [00:23.23] | Doug: And then in one hand, |
| [00:24.73] | I'll have an aluminium camera housing, |
| [00:26.14] | and in another hand, |
| [00:27.86] | I'll have this hi-tech shark billy. |
| [00:30.47] | And then it's just a matter of giving them a little poke |
| [00:33.98] | to let them know that you're alive and capable of defending yourself. |
| [00:38.43] | Narration: The moment of truth had arrived. |
| [00:41.56] | Mark: Bird on the water, |
| [00:43.81] | 80 yards to the right. |
| [00:45.62] | Narration: It was time to swim with tiger sharks. |
| [00:55.28] | Pulling the boat up at a respectful distance from the bird, |
| [00:59.19] | the divers' final approach was from underwater. |
| [01:04.25] | To stop any surprise attacks from a shark beneath them, |
| [01:07.81] | they hugged the sea bed. |
| [01:12.79] | But the bird was long gone. |
| [01:14.88] | They waited back-to-back for a tiger shark to show. |
| [01:19.57] | None did. But as they surfaced, a shark appeared |
| [01:29.00] | Mark: Right behind you! Shark right behind you! |
| [01:31.65] | Richard: It's a pretty intimidating sight to see a shark that big and that fat. |
| [01:39.53] | it's a huge girth, absolutely incredible girth. |
