  • Yeah, we're just gonna keep chumming I think and tee it up now paige has another chance to tag in Oahu.

  • Tiger shark before they gather in mon.

  • As soon as I jumped in while she's prepping the camera page.

  • This is your shot, this is your shark.

  • I am really trying to just let the rest of the noise that's going on in my head kind of fade away and I am on a level of focus that I have not experienced before in my life.

  • It's here, it's here, it's good.

  • I looked over and she's already swimming down.

  • She's literally like at that one point, right behind the shark where he can't quite see the back of his dorsal fin.

  • My heart beat in that moment was so loud in my ears.

  • It was like, I couldn't hear anything else and seeing it go on right where it needs to be.

  • The shark had no idea until boom, the clamp went on and I was just so relieved.

  • Like, I was just like, yes, I was like, we did it, we didn't know what the shark was gonna do after the tag was put on his dorsal fin.

  • And then he comes back, Here comes this tiger shark with a bright orange little package and we're just like, no, we're on his camera.

  • You know, it's so cool.

  • Now the sharks filming us for page.

  • This is the culmination of years of preparation, come on that the sense of relief that I felt once I saw that the camera was on was it was huge, I'm super proud of her.

  • She has worked her butt off for the last few years to make sure that this thing is deployed on a tiger shark and she nailed it.

  • Page has proven that it doesn't disturb the shark's natural behavior in the slightest.

  • I mean, the fact that he came back around validates the method of tagging it was exciting enough to sea from the shark's point of view.

  • But then I see that he actually went and swam up to another tiger shark, which is just insane.

  • It brings the proof of concept full circle.

  • It takes a uniquely skilled team trained in the right way with the right equipment and we have that team.

  • I have no doubt that page has the ability to pull this off.

  • I'm definitely ready for Maui.

Yeah, we're just gonna keep chumming I think and tee it up now paige has another chance to tag in Oahu.
