Ticao is an island on the eastern part of the Visayan islands, Philipipnes, near Bohol.

I also heard from Nathan Floro of Adventure Bound that they've seen a lot of sharks in Ticao during their dives around San Miguel Island - Parola point. One time they even spotted the very agressive Oceanic Whitetip. Hey, Ticao might be our mini-"Fiji" here in the Philippines :)
Damn it ! I've been ripped off! I did like 12 dives around manta bowl and San Mig Island and I saw one measly whale shark!

Coolest tiger shark footage I have seen is of a guy taking a photo of some little creature on a rock, his buddy is taking video footage form about 10 metres back - all of a sudden, this huge tiger enters the picture, looks down, sees the diver taking the photo,and takes a bite... somehow, instead of biting the divers head, he bites the tank valve, decides that he doesn't like it, and swims off. The guy taking the photo, feeling the bump on his tank turns around to his buddy, with no idea what it was that just nudged him.

Gotta try and get that, it was amazing footage...

I'll have to get the footage from the guy who taught the fish ID course - he had some awesome footage... I'll send him an email and see if I can wrangle it out of him...

Oh yeah, I forgot, Almighty was there on that course - so was neets. I think we watched that video like 4 times over... I think the guy with the video camera gave the "OK" signal when the other guy turned around.. Kind alike "Yeah, all is good, I got it on film, just wait 'till you see what happenned!"

Okay, so I know we're so used to fish feeding at twin rocks or cathedral in Anilao right? Well, I guess for some people, hand feeding the most dangerous shark in the world gives them THE kick:)

Check out this video of a diver nearly getting chummed by a tiger shark:
