Note: She is not actually Naked. After all she is wearing a Bikini Bottom. 

 

How can anyone do something so outright Stupid to swim with Dangerous Sharks? Well she does have a point about there being a Silly Taboo about Nudity, sharks can and will eat Humans. This is like visiting Africa or India and going right up a Lion or Tiger and give one a Hug.

There is a small but significant subset of free divers who do it and have been able to learn a huge amount about the social hierarchies of sharks and other marine creatures. Fred Buyle is a particularly noteable one - his website nektos.net has some incredible photography if you are interested.
