Encounter with the Great White Shark

Craig Ferreira, one of the most respected and renowned under water researcher in the world has been obsessed with the Great White Shark for almost 30 years. Being the son of a trophy hunter he was only eleven years old when he killed his first Great White. A shocking experience which ultimately turned his attitude from being a hunter to becoming one of the most known protectors of these marine predators.

Today, he leads the White Shark Research Institute, which focuses on demystifying the Great White Shark. In countless dives they research behavior and hunting techniques of this animal. Usually they dive in cages, which offer a minimal protection from these sometimes very aggressive predators.

But Craig Ferreira is beyond that and considers himself a free diver. He is one of the few people on earth who dives with the great white with any protection whatsoever. But with thirty years of experience his true weapon is knowledge.
