Hi @joeblack1 what's up. I'm little bit curious about one thing. I read many comment every day, but nobody don't asked "hi, hello, what's up, or anything" why ? Is it wrong ? I know it's common and everybody want to write something different because we are professional but one more thing we are human also.
profession + profession = better business.
human + human = good friend.
both are true but,
profession with humanity build a beautiful world.
I want to ask other people, are they agree with me or not?
Hope you agree with me.
if you are upvote or commenting me then I think you agree with me.
Whatever, hope you are fine.
After all nice post sir.

Thanks for agree with me sir.

@hassanabid iska zara nam check kr :D

Hmmmm. This isn't going to end well.

malfunction means the end

To true. Not only does it mean the end it means that the camera man will get it aswell.

As a former QA engineer, that is something I would definitely not sign up to test.

Do you have a pic of the electronics?

I can't deal with any sharks, if there is even a trace amount of shark in the water I'm not going in lol.

Right? I honestly do not feel like perishing anytime soon. Some people I know walked through fire for fun. I said hey congrats on being stupid.

Some are safe, I assure you :)

disagree i dont believe that they are safe !

What kind of shark was it? I have been to South Africa myself and I know that great whites are around there. By the size I would say it isn't a great white, but what is it?

Good friends :)

nope i dont think so ! :P photographer or he one of them would have been eaten i think after that click i believe

I would honestly have my heart beat out of my chest. It would be game over!
