The ULTIMATE terror.
newman:
It grows to over 20 feet in length and 5 feet in girth.
It can weigh over 3000 lbs.
It's jaws can exceed 3 feet in width and exert the pressure of an industrial steel press.
It doesn't sleep..............EVER.
Swimming at less than half it's maximum speed it's conical snout can smash the GRP or timber hull of a boat to pieces.
Sometimes it sticks it's head out of the water just to gaze at us (this is called 'spyhopping', BTW).
Meet The Great White Shark:
It can lauch itself clear out of the water.
The good news is he is a very fussy eater (unlike his cousins the Tiger and Bull Shark) and we don't appeal to his apetite. Attacks on humans are nearly always mistaken identity or simply 'mouthing' us (the mouth is the only part of his body with any real sense of touch).
HiWarp:
Whether I appeal to his appetite or not, I do not what to get "mouthed" by THAT. It just may ruin my day.

By the time you've been 'mouthed' and it decides it doesn't like you it's pretty well all over!
I'm trying to find a pic I saw in the paper of an australian diver who was half swallowed by one! All you could see was the diver's butt & legs sticking out of the sharks mouth (yes a 20+ footer!). The photo was REAL not a fake. The diver was spat out unharmed except for a sore stomach!!! How lucky was he? I bet that experience turned his hair grey instantly.
HiWarp:
It grows over 40 feet in length and 20 feet tall.
It can weigh over 14,000 lbs.
It's jaws can exceed 4 feet in width with 13 inch long teeth.
It can run at speeds up to 15 mph.
Meet the Tyrannosaurus Rex:
The good news is that it's extinct because this guy wouldn't spit you out.
newman:
This is the Great White's great great great grandpa.............
The Megalodon:
50+ feet and 48 tons!!!!
The bad news is he may NOT be extinct according to some!!!!!
