BBC Planet Earth - Shark attacks.

I'm not speechless very often but holy f**cking moly!

 

The slow motion shark attack on a seal was amazing. Slowed down about 40 times it was like something out of the Matrix. The shark totally out of the water, spary all around and the little seal in its mouth.

 

Thank goodness that the TV tax goes onto this kind of thing and not just on shite like The Two of Us.

It was a toss up between watching Top Gear or Planet Earth for me and Planet Earth won....

 

Likewise, especially since TG was repeats.

 

Using that long-range high-definition camera from the helicopter resulted in some fantastic shots. It was fascinating to see the wild dogs peeling off one by one to take up position -- like a commando mission, and as for those Great Whites.... how big were those things? The sea-lions in their jaws looked tiny!

 

EDIT: Clips here

The great white is there, and the wild dogs, and the Amur leopard, and the swimming elephants, and the polar bears.... and that's just one episode.

Yep i was shocked at the shark clip it was amazing never seen photage like that before! The way it came up from the water and was literally 5 - 10 ft in the air above the water?! Crazy!
