Protip: Don't stab great white sharks

Not sure what these guys were thinking:

A film crew shooting the documentary Lair of the Megashark were just off New Zealand's Steward Island when they attempted to put a camera on the dorsal fin of the massive ocean predator who decided to nudge the boat and bite at the thin rope that tethered the dinghy to the main boat.

Best quote:
'I don't think this is such a brilliant f*****g idea you know'.




I'm guessing "put a camera on" really means "stab a barbed hook into".

It's kind of a sad commentary on the Discovery Channel really, they used to do science (remember when Mythbusters actually did math instead of being about explosions and tits?).   Now they're doing a Sharknadian "documentary" about big sharks, something which has been done 100x already - why keep doing it?
