Whale Shark Video



Diver Sean Hawes caught this amazing video of a whale shark in the Gulf. I am reminded of this scene from Jaws.



The divers are able to get so close because whale sharks mainly feed on microscopic plants, plankton and animals. According to Wikipedia, the biggest recorded whale shark 41.50 feet and weighed more than 79,000 lb.
