The tail seems about the same shape as most of the white shark pics i just (nerdily) googled...

Feedback could probably tell us what it is

I fought a shark once, with other sharks on my fists for boxing gloves. Questions?

That's spiders

And even then it's bullshit :icon32:

LOL, it is not. Some things just turn aggressive when firghtened. Some people do, too.

That photo is misleading, too. The shark isn't much larger than the kayak. Granted, that would still enough to freak me out.

Great white attacks are rare, though. It's probably just curious... or it wants to mate.

LOL, I had just opened a tab for Google to do just that when I happened to read your post.

And what does Great White do when it's curious about something? It bites it.

Hey yeah, but IT'S STILL BIGGER THAN THE FUCKING KAYAK.

clearly it's a submarine piloted by underpants knomes who just wanna take that poor sod's knickers.

is there any reason to suppose the picture isn't fake?

seems nobody has raised that possibility...

I thought about it but all the water fx look too accurate....

It could be a great white (hard to tell from the pic angle), but I don't think it is. It's a little darker than they usually are, has a thinner body, and the snout is too pointed; great whites have wide blunt noses.

But who cares, it'd still scare the shit out of me.

If I was in a more stable craft, I'd try hanging over the edge and shitting in the water. You don't want to piss though, as that attracts them just like blood sometimes.

It does kinda look like it's either been scanned in or PS'd though - look at the horizontal lines near the bottom.

It's clearly a shark.

omg that word owns! - just looked up its meanings

Are we so jadaed now that we think EVERYTHING is fake? Come on, it's not like the shark is playing Duke Nukem Forever while the kayaker gets head from Britney Spears...

This post looks fake.

That reply is totally PS'd, I can see the jpeg comression.

I'm a wee bit skeptical, just because the composition seems a little too perfect but I know fuck all about photo shit.

It probably got scanned from Reader's Digest or something.
