While cage diving might remove a lot of the danger of swimming with sharks, it definitely doesn't remove all of the fear.
Even if you're just watching a video filmed from someone's GoPro.
Take this video that was shot off the coast of South Africa by Hillary Rae and features a shark attacking the cage - whch thankfully holds up under the pressure.
The teeth…

"While shark cage diving, our cage was attacked by an 11.5 foot Great White shark. The round buoy attached to the side of the cage was bent in half. Some of the lining of the outside blue barrier bar was bitten through as well. It was quite the up close and personal experience!!
"This was a trip I went on during one of my days off from volunteering at Cango Wildlife Ranch… The shark was even closer than he appears. I apologize for the shakiness..... and my friend's screaming."
