JUPITER FLORIDA, TIGER BEACH BAHAMAS: Tiger shark chomping into the flesh of fish while next to diver. HOLDING a sixteen foot-long tiger shark in his hands one brave British diver can be seen placing the wild predator into a dream-like trance ninety-feet underwater. With only a few inches between them, the diver strokes and soothes the shark in a procedure called “tonic immobility”, often used to calm sharks in order to remove hooks from their mouths or throat.

Service and warranty manager Alan C Egan (59) originally from Timperley, UK and now a resident of Florida was able to snap these impressive shots at Tiger Beach in the Bahamas.
