Waterguy - you think the guy petting it is stupid? You might just find me in the water snapping pictures....!
Crazier than Tracy??

Yes, I believe we have found someone crazier than "our Tracy".
You were brave - this person is a lunatic! Pet a shark WHILE it is feeding. Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.
Whereas - you were just being a "spirited observer" - yes - that sounds about right??!!??
Come to think of it - maybe "You and the Hand-person" are related??!!??

That was on St. John? I bet that smelled awful!

I don't know what kind of shark that is, but I sure hope I don't see it or any of its kin when I am on St. John! I would definitely freak out, start screaming and flailing, and end up as shark lunch.
And as for the person petting the shark...heck, I won't even pet the dolphins at Sea World!

I would also be shark bait if ever I saw one while I was in the H2O. I watch ALOT of Discovery Channel Shark programs and those don't look like what they say Tiger sharks should look like...to me. I am just SICK about this shark talk. I am going in may and have brainwashed myself into thinking there are very few of them in these waters. 
That only Nurse sharks and docile sharks are there. This is making it tough for me to look forward to snorkling on vaca! LOL! I can't share this with anyone in my group or there WON'T be any one in the water.OF course if I didn't read the posts I guess I would be fine but it's like waving a giant candy bar in front of a two year old. I just can't seem to stay away from them.

I am right there with you 1 of 4. I have brainwashed myself also. I get freaked out sometimes when I snorkel and this pic did not help! It really is cool though.

Anyone else notice the little kids sitting in the front of the boat?
As a kid, I totally would have loved to see this.
As an adult/parent, I don't want to think about sharks.

I have read on a BVI forum, that it was towed away from the Rhone.
And that it likely was a Bull Shark.

It was on the Rhone, and according to Bluewater Divers the sharks were reef sharks.

Reef sharks sounds better than bull sharks.
I am looking forward to dive at the Rhone in May, so I rather see reef sharks if I can chose between those two.
But this feast took place in October, so no need to worry about that anymore.
