Summary: WOW!! Awsome
Review: This is one of the best Documentary movie ever made about the Great White Shark. Since I am a big fan of this shark, and seen lots of movies and documentaries, I never thought that these guys can fly so high in order to catch their preys. For the first time, you can watch a huge 15-foot white shark flies in the air with a seal in its jaws!!
This feature contains "Air Jaws (Sharks of South Africa)" & "Air Jaws 2 (Even Higher)". The Discovery channel has spent a whole year to make this film, shooting in South Africa, South Australia and California, all 3 places home of the white shark.
If you are a big fan like me, than do not hesitate to buy it.
A MUST!!

Summary: Amazing!
Review: This past summer, my father and I traveled to South Africa and visited Simon's Town. After asking at the local tourist information station about seeing the sharks, we were given Rob Lawrence's cell phone number. Long story short, we were able to spend a day out on Chris and Rob's boat watching the great whites attack the seals in the "Circle of Death" around Seal Island. Rob (who is in the video) provided us with a wonderful morning and afternoon full of excitement and education. The video I shot during our visit, I love, but it is nowhere near the quality of the footage here, obviously. At one point, I made the comment, "Gee...this is a lot like fishing", indicating that there is a whole lot of waiting for the sharks to show up. This video is all of the good parts, without the cold wind, listing boat, and smell of chum.

Summary: Breaching Sharks
Review: This was a highly intriguing and informative documentary detailing white shark predatory activity in the South African waters. As a shark fanatic, I would definitely recommend this dvd. The "breaching" phenomenon is well discussd and the aerial maneouverability displayed by such large marine-dwelling fish is truly acrobatic and amazing. The strategies evolved by both predator and prey are well detailed. Air Jaws 2 further illustrates this breaching or flying out of the water manouevers used by the sharks in capturing their more agile and elusive prey. I was also impressed at how quickly my delivery was sent from the time I had ordered it. Thankyou AMAZON.CA

Summary: Jaw-Dropping Footage! Literally...
Review: You can teach a dog to jump through a hoop, but what these sharks do is pure survival instinct. It's well worth any shark lovers time to watch these two documentaries back-to-back so as to gain an appreciation for the evolutionary science that has been employeed to capture these scenes. The first movie establishes that this not only occurs, but on a very frequent basis in South Africa. The second movie expands on this by taking what they know of this extraordinary feeding habit and testing it in California and Australia, where breeching is far less common. The results are a greater understanding of this mysterious sharks true feeding habits. Most people are only aware of sharks breeching water from the fake photo that surfaced about a year or two ago, with the great white appearing to attack a navy seal being hoisted back into a helicopter. Watch this film and you will see that the truth is far more amazing than the fictious myths.
