Shark week - wrath or submarine

I thought it was sci fi at first but turns out to be real ..... I think. There is a shark that is about 35 feet long. Been sighted as far back as 1970. The footage is pretty amazing. The shark is freaking huge.

I'm not going in the water any more. I'm done.

Are you talking about a whale shark? Those things are harmless.

mockumentary or documentary? Discovery is going the way of Syfy.

No, great white. Seemed legit to me. They have some footage of the shark that looks quite real to me. I'm some what skeptical because of the reputation of discovery but those seems legit.

What difference does it make if you get bit by a 15 ft. or 35 ft. Great White?
