Guys.

I once saw a shark tooth as big as 4 fingres and it was found on a try dive at ghadira bay by a dutch instructor.  While he was static he saw this strange rock and unearthed it. 

But lets discuss this doc.  I think that the tooth was found some other time and they made this re enactement for the film.

there is some editing in the film... but the sea is the sea and sharks migrate.. surely it wasn't a single dive but a lot of dives, many of which would be capotti

All of a sudden Redbus, I dont want to go alungi fishing near Fifla if they are finding sharks teeth the size of 4 fingers I'm afraid my old sphincter will be twitching at the thought of that!

They only attack if you stop fishing!!

Plenty of shark teeth (fossilized) on the west coast if you know where to find them and have the patience to extract them.
A good freind of mine has this for a "hobby"...each to his own i suppose! as personally after watching him a few times tapping away at rocks with a "toy" hammer & chisel for hours on end isn't my idea of a good time..then again i suppose chucking peices of metal and plastic back and forth in the water might not make much sense to him either LOL!!

I go fishing and I hunt for fossils because it's another of my hobbies and the two can go well together. When I lived in Suffolk I also used to collect amber off the beach while cod fishing in the winter
