I remember a story back in 2004 saying that an over amorous dolphin almost drowned a swimmer because it was attempting to mate with the diver. See, even dolphins can kill you. So, NOTHING is safe in the ocean!

Stazi has learned to hold his breath for a very long time just for such dolphin-lovin situations.

I just found it on snopes.com. and it is a dolphin.
But the Great White following the kayak is a real photo! Also snopes.com. Pretty scary!

Giant shark movie. http://www.megsite.com/images.htmhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0450459/I read a little of the novel when it came out...it's going to be scary but over the top.

OK, sharks scare the he!! out of me. I rarely swin in salt water. Kinda my lil deal with them. I stay out of their water, they stay off of 696...it works for us. I did go snorkeling while on my cruise and it was the first thing i thought about...I mean we are in 50' of water.... 1320' away from the boat...so unless I suddenly gained the ability to run on water...I was done for. Great Whites make my skin crawl...they are just HUGE...their ability to ruin my day just seeing what I am makes me skurred.
Trapps....you should buy that boat....looks PIMP
People suck.
Rev it till it MELTS.....

Hell, running full speed into the Atlantic north of VA Beach was enough for me. I came running back out after I saw the plethora of jellyfish

Regarding the dolphin pic: I was swimming in Delaware, where we go every year, when a dolphin swam right underneath me. I knew they swim there all the time, knew it was VERY unlikely it was a shark, and it STILL scared the S**T out of me. They are soooo fast, and I could feel the power of it as it went underneath me. WOW! If it had been a hungry shark, that would have been it. No warning at all. Course, I don't know that seeing the shark follow my kayak would be any better!
