I filmed this huge friendly Whale Shark (close-up at 1:01) as it swam alongside our fishing boat out in the Indian Ocean, near Thérèse Island, off the west coast of Mahé, while deep-sea fisning. This huge shark was accompanied by a school of Pilot fish. He came so close to the boat that you can clearly see his distinctive markings and dappled pigmentation pattern on his skin. He was within touching distance, giving me the opportunity to record some amazing video footage. These clips are just a few examples!
