1. OK, that's it for me - no surfing lessons!
I wasn't planning on going surfing before, but now I'm definitely planning not to go surfing!

3. Between them and the colossal squid I think I'll stay in the pool
Suddenly annoying kids doing cannonballs doesn't seem so bad.

4. Thanks for the cool video!
I've seen them do it in person, but it goes so fast that you don't really register what you just saw, so the slo-mo was fantastic.

I went diving with great whites in False Bay near Seal Island, and it makes me wonder if that's where this footage was shot -- they breach there more than anywhere else.
