60 minutes feature on shark diving and shark finning

[DeputyDan]

The 60 minutes reporter actually did a cage dive with great whites off the South Africa coast.

During the dive a seal hid in the cage with him to escape being dinner for a shark. The shark was eyeing the cage to figure out how to get the seal - The reporter was less than happy.

Even though I am sure it was scary for him it was funny as hell for the viewer!

The part that was really freaky was when that one shark got half in the cage and the divers had to slip out the other side escape being dinner!

Hate to say I only caught the last minute of the piece. I hope they show it again.
