Holy shit. Just saw the first trailer for Shark Week 2007. It looks like it's going to be intense. They show a shark coming in and opening its mouth right in a diver's face, another clip shows a diver face to face with a tiger shark holding its mouth shut (WTF?!?!?), and another one of a diver holding a great white in open water by its nose.

20th anniversary of Shark Week, how did I know they would do some crazy shit for this one?

would you want to get bitten by a great white with no means of getting out of the water?

Next to man vs wild, shark week is the best thing on discovery.

Shark Week is the best thing on Discovery, then Mythbusters and then Man vs. Wild & Survivorman. Of course, Planet Earth was the shit too ...

for anybody who is interested, youtube "guy swimming with great white".

It's some crazy guy swimming with a great white. I've watched most of the shark weeks and I've never seen any thing like it

Yep. I've seen photos of him doing that before, so I figured they would have him on for the 20 years thing.

Must say though, I'm not sure who came up with the death wish to hold a tiger shark's mouth shut while swimming face to face.

Dang, a month away and I'm already stoked for it.

The guy that swam with the Great White was part of Shark Week in 05 ... There were a lot of people swimming open water with Great Whites.

Planet Earth is incredible cinematography, I really can't think of anything that has matched it, whether it's documentary or film.

Everybody said a Killer Whale would beat the shit out of any type of shark. That just ruins it for me. A shark looks mean and nasty, but it's get beat by an adorable looking Free Willy?

Planet Earth was probably the best thing to come out of Discovery in a long time. After that I'd say Shark Week is always awesome, well mostly always. Right now the only things worth watching are Man vs. Wild, Deadliest Catch, Dirty Jobs, and sometimes Mythbusters (that show seems to pull "myths" out of its ass nowadays.)

pbjunkie -

The guy's name that does the snorkelling is Andre Hartmann. I searched for a little bit but couldn't find a good 'head on' pic. You may have some luck searching for his name though.

Side note:

Orca vs. Great White:
