Love those shots.
This one is a freak out, for sure!.....

WOW!
And they don't use Photoshop.

Looks like obvious boat prop injuries to the side of the shark.

I noticed that too. I wonder if the boat survived the encounter!

Tim, imagine if it were the diver's boat!

I hope that picture is not a Scratch'n'Sniff

"Tim, imagine if it was the divers boat!" "I hope that picture is not a Scratch'n'Sniff"

Saw a 60 Minutes story about a South African guy who "plays" with Great White Sharks. He motored out, chummed the water, and then checked the disposition of the sharks at the rear of his boat. He swatted them on the nose, and to me it looked like he was playing with a rambunctious Labrador Retriever. When he's confident that the day's sharks are "players," he gets in the water with just his snorkeling gear. This is the guy you've seen holding onto a dorsal fin, getting a tow.

I bet it's from mating encounters. Sometimes "No!" means "If you can!"
