What is shark wranglers about




















Storyline Edit. On the far side of the Atlantic Ocean, in some of the world's most treacherous waters, Chris Fischer and his crew of the shark research vessel OCEARCH are on a mission to decode the mystery of one of the planet's most notorious predators: the great white shark. Fischer and the crew risk life and limb to tag and track the great whites, revealing where they feed, breed and prowl. The crew has just 40 days to catch and tag 50 great whites, and they'll do so by doing what no other crew dares.

They leap from our world into theirs, coming face to face each day with a predator that has terrorized the oceans for millions of years. On top of that, they have to deal with rough weather, rougher oceans and poachers who threaten to wipe out the entire species.

But then, shark wrangler Brett McBride isn't like most people Hide Caption. Face to face — The year-old comes face to face with sharks almost everyday, as part of his work with scientific research vessel Ocearch. Playing tag — The team of scientists and sailors are on a mission to electronically tag sharks, in an effort to build a global map of their migration, breeding, and birthing habits.

Enter McBride — It's up to captain McBride to guide the sharks onto the ship's platform, which raises out of the water much like a giant cradle. See no evil — Once on board, McBride will cover the shark's eyes with a dark towel to calm them down.

Pipes filled with water are also put in their jaws, to irrigate the gills. He's behind you! Mighty mission — "When the shark is taken out of the equation, the squid populations explode. They're voracious eaters so every night they'd eat the baby fish -- swordfish, tuna, marlin. The fish are being wiped out, not by man, but by squid. And that's because man took away their main predator -- sharks," said McBride. Story highlights Brett McBride is a shark wrangler, freediver, big waver surfer and Imagine you're sitting at the bottom of the ocean, amidst sharks in a feeding frenzy.

Would you: A. Swim to the surface as fast as your trembling legs could take you. Find a weapon to arm yourself with. Fall asleep. Brett McBride fell asleep. For a minute. While hundreds of three-meter-long Galapagos sharks swarmed around him during a feeding frenzy off the coast of Costa Rica. The year-old shark wrangler doesn't suffer from some kind of severe narcolepsy. Instead, he was merely proving a point -- these fearsome predators aren't going to be interested in you, if you're not interested in them.

It really just shows you how bad a rap sharks get. They're just like any other fish," said McBride. It would take them probably hours to get the courage up to attack you if you were adrift at sea.
