Wasn't just him, wasn't it his girlfriend too IIRC.What was the name of that bear whisperer that got mauled to death in front of his camera?
I have seen her other videos. I think she is a bit delusional. White sharks and “Nikki” are not her friends. They are wild animals.Watch: Frightening moment woman almost dives into shark’s mouth
Astonishing footage shows the moment a woman almost dove into the mouth of a 5m shark.www.nzherald.co.nz
Timothy Treadwell thought the bears were his friends too. Friends don't eat friends, well if they do they weren't very good friends.I have seen her other videos. I think she is a bit delusional. White sharks and “Nikki” are not her friends. They are wild animals.
One of the problems with her self-aggrandizing behavior is the result of copycats. After she posted one of these shots/videos of swimming with a sated (from eating a dead whale) pregnant female, there were idiots who went out and were taking pictures of themselves on it. According to an actual scientist, this resulted in no more pregnant females feasting on the whale carcass. Allegedly, the gestation period for great whites requires a lot of calories and missed feasting opportunities can result in fewer great whites being born. Now I'm not a scientist, but I do try to listen to those who are who explain issues in layman's terms.Siegfried and Roy? Oh no wait. That was tigers. Same concept though.
That's one big-ass shark, though. And it looks like it either ate a car or its pregnant.
Seems she's not a marine biologist nor studying for a PhD and has never published a peer-reviewed scientific paper.Ramsay is all about self-promotion of her guiding business. Has she actually published any peer reviewed scientific studies? I don't believe so, so I challenge her title of "marine scientist."
Reminds me of an old joke, but I don't think I can post it here.Like those idiots who put their heads in crocodiles mouths etc... can't fix stupid. Some guy did it with his arm when was then all but twisted off, again I laughed. I'm not a nice person.
