This comes in a bit late, I know, but I didn't find the time to do it earlier. So I was in Koh Samui again, early January 2010, and did some diving with Planet Scuba. And one lucky day, we took the Speed Boat out to Chumphon Pinnacle, and there I had some of the most touching experiences in my life.
First of all, just after jumping into the water, there was a young Whale Shark directly next to me in the water, allowing for some perfect pics. It was about 4,5 meters long, I guess. I was really moved and couldn't believe it!
Then, going down to about 20 meters, we saw two female bull sharks out there doing circles. Distance about 10 m, size about 4 meters. Frightening. I took some videos which I eventually will put on YouTube, but it was very dark down there which didn't really help to improve the video. It did help to start up my heart rate, though. Amazing!
