A lot of people would say you have got reason more than most to hate sharks and yet you

>> It was in a spear fishing championship that I was the reigning champion.

After four hours many fish had been speared and each one had bled into the water.

The tide had gone out, but nobody had seen any sharks.

And I went out a bit wider and deeper to try and find fish that hadn't been scared.

And as I dived down I was just about to spear a fish when this thump and crash hit me in

the chest, knocked the gun out of my hand, the mask off my face.

And I felt: What can I do to protect myself?

So I gouged the shark’s head over with my fingers trying to get its eyes.

I pushed at that shark to try and push it away.

But my hand went right in his mouth, ripping.

I ended up with only one tendon left and 94 stitches in my hand.

But I grabbed the shark around the belly and still 30, 40 feet under water holding on and

then I realized air, because I was snorkeling and I was going to drown.

And on the surface I yelled out: Shark, shark.

And I looked down and the shark was coming back to attack again.

I could see this great big head and white teeth coming up through the blood red water

and I thought: I have got nothing at all to protect myself.

The shark turned and swallowed the float that I had attached two or three fish to.

It dived and as it dived it dragged me under water and it...

And as it dragged down I tried to find my belt to get rid of it, but I couldn’t find

And I hadn't breathed... deep breathed much.

And I was just about to gasp water and drown when another miracle happened.

It was severed when the shark bit me around the chest and it managed to break.

As I came up to the surface yelling out: Shark, shark, shark, a boat actually had seen the

bright red water, my blood, and was coming over to investigate.

They quickly picked me up, rolled me into the boat and with really great precision I

was in a hospital within an hour given blood and luckily stitched up.

The photographs that were taken on the operating table and my stories went around the world.

People wondered whether I would go back in the water.

It was when I was at the Adelaide Zoo looking at the lion cages that I came up with the

I will lower it over the side of the boat in an area where these great big great white

sharks habit and I will have a look for myself to see if I want to go diving again, because

We made the first cage and on that first expedition, you know, 48 years ago, we made the first

>> That firs time that you put the cage in the water, did that cure your fear?

The first shark that came really looked like a small submarine with a deadly front on it

We thought maybe the sharks were interested in the people inside.

But then we found that they would come up an bite on the cage even when there was no

one in it and what we ended up finding it was the electrolysis that was sent out by

the salt water on the seal that attracted them.

>> And so now that you spend so much time with sharks, I mean, how do you feel about

They are a wonderful, interesting animal.

And even today they still need help, because people still fear and dread them because they

are the last major predator that will eat you.

But with education, it think people will understand that we need them in our oceans and of 400

varieties, there is only a handful that may bite people.

The more I got interested in sharks and the more I loved the sea, I was able to return

and go abalone diving all around... along our coastline.

I spent 16 years and 5000 hours or more underwater and on those occasions I only saw three sharks.

Normally they don’t have humans on their menu list.

Thank goodness they didn’t, because along our beaches they could ... there would be

>> A lot of people would say you have got reason, more than most, to hate sharks and

>> It is the anomaly of this fear that was generated and shown to me after my shark attack

Going back into the water was a real relief and I found it wasn’t as bad as everybody

So I spent the whole of my life trying to put sharks in a different perspective.
