Drunken discussion with a mate?

Seen footage on the internet?

I think you have your answer there already, Alan :lol:

Anything's possible though, I suppose

    There have been a lot of discussions on this and there was also a program on TV a year or so ago that looked into it, bottom line is there have been no positive sightings or firm proof of them yet, that said it's not impossible that they have made it to our shores, as for the med they are there and there has even been a video recorded of a 16' GW attacking a fish tied to the side of a boat, there have also been a few cases of divers being attacked and killed by what was thought to be one.
    A friend of mine who was swimming in a a bay in Malta was shouted at by locals on the shore and in boats, one boat even came over to block the thing approaching him, while he swam like hell to get on land, when he asked what it was all about they told him a very large fish that was much bigger than him was following him, they said it was probably a shark.
