A picture taken from an Adventure sports website of a Adult swimming in a cage near sharks. This is typically what shark cage diving is all about in Cape Town.

Doesn’t it sometimes scare you how Cape Town is the home of sharks. Just admitting I’m surrounded by shark infested waters scares the daylights out of me.
When visitors come to visit Cape Town, I always find it hysterically funny when they fill their agenda’s up with shark cage diving and other extreme adventurous activities.
For those of you who aren’t aware, yes we have sharks in the water, and yes they do eat you. Don’t be fooled.
I’m Capetonian and have never ever in my life thought of going shark cage diving.
After watching Infamous shark attack survivor, Micheal Cohen’s lifeless body floating over a wave just after being mauled by a shark, I couldn’t think of anything worse than coming face-to-face with one.
On the other side of things, could you just imagine being the visitor that coincidently visited that specific spot on that day which resulted in him or her being the witness to a gruesome event such as that? I couldn’t.
