5. I have done some dangerous things in my lifetime,
but that is one thing I definitely would not do.

6. me too
Riding fast bikes, climbing big cliffs, sailing big seas.

Sharks:
I've chased small ones around in tide pools in FL and I would love to go down in a cage to see the big ones, but free swim, no thanks.

7. Holy shit.
You could not PAY me to do that. I'm amazed they weren't eaten, especially since one got its jaws around the camera at one point. All it would have taken was one getting pissed at a diver for grabbing hold of its fin and the diver would have died.

Those are some mellow great whites, though (mostly). Guess if you're not facedown on a surfboard, you don't look like a prey item.
