Thanks El Camote for posting that link. It totally explains how the sharks are tired out prior to being raised on the platform. No sedation. Wow. I would still be very afraid. Some of those scientists were putting their faces and hands very close to the sharks mouth and nasty teeth.

We have to watch that show Monday night.

The Great White is a magnificent creature. What an honor it would be to be on that platform and part of that crew.
