Surfing and Sharks

This is a trailer for a South African documentary that will have its Official World Premiere at the Wavescape Film Festival in Cape Town, South Africa, December 15th 2011. Surfing and Sharks goes up close with Pro Surfers Lungani, Andrew and Avuyile, their family’s traditions and tribulations alongside a hand selected group of the best shark experts from the region. The film uncovers the real secrets and stories that surround the shark stigma that exists in South Africa. Watch the trailer! It looks great and book your tickets if you’re in the area!

How to Hypnotize a Shark
Cristina Zenato is a shark charmer who is capable of holding a ten-foot Caribbean Reef shark vertically in the palm of her hand.

She induces ‘tonic immobility’, an anti-predator behaviour displayed by certain sharks where they play dead. The skill is to carefully rub the ampullae of Lorenzini - the name given to hundreds of jelly-filled pores around the animal’s nose and mouth, and this paralyzes the shark.
