Sharks of the Deep Blue

Two fierce predators, the Oceanic White Tip Shark that inhabits deep offshore waters and the Bull Shark that patrols the murky shallows of rivers and estuaries, are examined. Underwater photographers search the depths off Hawaii for the dangerous and seldom seen Oceanic White Tip Shark. Using their cameras for defense, they demonstrate how to survive an encounter with the predator responsible for the deaths of hundreds of shipwreck victims, including those of the U.S.S. Indianapolis. In the shallow Bahamian waters, a scientist shows how to avoid being attacked by Bull Sharks using relaxation methods and body language techniques.
