Swimming witha Huge Turtle

I was freediving in Ft. Lauderdale on a reef in about 55 feet of water when I see a HUGE loggerhead turtle. To my surprise he follows me around the reef and all the way... More» to the surface. At no point was the turtle in any danger as the safety on my speargun was engaged at all times. I spearfish to feed my family and spearfishing has been shown to be the most environmentally-friendly way to fish with the least impact on the reefs and fish populations. Feel free to leave comments, post it on your blog, and give the video a high rating if you liked it, I think it's better than a lot of the other videos out there. Thanks!

I know turtles can grow big ;) some can grow about 8feet long ;)

You've had some awesome adventure! I do snorkling a lot, but I can't hold my breath long enough for an actual freedive...

5/5!

This is so cool. It seems so peaceful and gentle! I love turtles. You can't ever be stressed while watching a turtle.
