Swimming with a 25 foot shark!

Alas, I'm too cheap to own a really good underwater helmet cam, and I'm too slow a swimmer to catch the damn thing anyway. But, I gotta tell you, Nancy and I and 8 close friends got to swim with a 25 foot long whale shark! This picture is off the internet, but gives you an idea of the scale...
This is a JUVENILE, the mature sharks can run over 40 feet and weigh upwards of 20 tons. What a rush!
