Al McGlashan was diving by a trolling boat to catch some bluewater marlin action. He ended up getting more than he bargained
for with the arrival of a hungry 3 m mako shark.

A video of AL MCGLASHAN diving with a blue marlin in Australia. You usually don't see the stripes on the surface. It is quite a dramatic looking creature.

This is what they pulled in after the shark's snack.

Reminds me of another Australian we towed around in an acrylic tube to shoot bluefin tuna
striking bait run from a sportsfishing boat off the Biminis, John Fairfax. This was with 16 mm cine in 1979 though.


I came across another shot while looking into this incident. So, what is real and what is photoshop?
