The up to 30 foot basking sharks we see off the coast in the South West are pretty impressive,especially when you are in an 18 foot boat!
Luckily they only eat plankton though.

I've been down in a cage off Gansbaai in South Africa with these things. They are so certain that you will see one that they will give you your money back if you don't.
Staggering things - I know things look circa 25% bigger underwater but they look like the size of trucks (with frightening teeth at one end). The cross section of the body from the dorsal fin area was deeper than the length of the cage I was floating in - it rubbed up against the cage and had skin like sandpaper.
The water is very clean down there but full of plankton so you can't see very far - say 15 m - so to be scanning all around while kacking your self and to then see one of these things loom silently out of the gloop at you teeth first is terrifying. The guy in south africa who swims with them without a cage is an idiot, believe me :eeek:
