Wow, amazing. Very cool camera too if you follow the link under the video. I love the water falls shots in their second video too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WSvduI2AuI&feature=plcp

Yes the fact that they were actually baiting the sharks with a seal took a lot away from the merit of the film.

Actually if you watch the video again, they say that it's a decoy. Which is why some of them spit it out mid dive.

Thanks that's better now I don't have to feel guilty about enjoying the movie for the slow motion. But I guess the shark feels cheated out of a snack:)

Cool slowmo. I thought they were using real baited seals too when I saw the line attached until they said it was a decoy. Whew! They'd have to deal with land sharks too! lol
