And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
That is Ocean Ramsey, swimming with Bug Blue, an 18 foot female, tagged off of Mexico's Guadalupe Island. Big Blue is preggers in that photo.
Ocean Ramsey believes that sharks never attack humans intentionally, but only while provoked, or by mistake. Eventually, she will try one of her stunts, like holding onto a White's dorsal fin, and being pulled through the water, with the wrong shark.

That was a theory put forward by scientist studying sharks and shark attacks in the '60s. Dr. Sylvia Earle, I think.
Her reasoning was simple: consider a shark that size. If it wanted to eat her, there wouldn't be a report of a shark attack, it would be a missing persons report. That's the case for most attacks. The shark is chasing bait fish in the surf and bites a leg. Shark has a "WTF?" moment and lets go. A big shark (over 6 or 8' long) could bite a person in half. People aren't regular parts of their world so they don't think of us as food.
