!!!!Holy Toledo!!! Can’t believe THIS Happened – Close Encounter!!!!!

[LawrencetheMDer]

I was watching an online CAM recording of the beach where I was metal detecting in the water today and what I saw sent a shiver down my spine!

I have attached a Word.doc with the 3 frame captures from the CAM recording, and they show this large object approach me in the surf. Size?

In the recording one can see a very large dark object heading towards me in the surf and the “Thing” actually gets only a few feet from me and, worse yet, is between me and the shore. It finally moves away but the really scary thing about it is that I had no idea of the close encounter until I just saw the video! Probably a Manatee, but then again… Don’t think I’ll go that deep tomorrow…

You lived to post about. Looks like something that may have only caused a flesh wound.

Arghhhh, I can't open the pics

My friend was metal detecting down in Hollywood,
when that big crocodile came out of the water,
right after she had emerged...
I had 2 LARGE tarpons pass, in between me & 2 ppl talking one day,
we were standing about chest deep.
I let out the loudest scream, before I realized what it was.
Woke that beach up...

50 years ago while on R&R from Viet-Nam I was in Malaysia and in waist deep crystal clear water waiting to go water skiing with other guys a dark long & slender object came meandering toward us and I yelled "SHARK" and we all scrambled out of the water. That was the last time I went dipping for that week! That made a impression on me !

Wow, it sure is big, whatever it was.

I have been brushed... bumped... and knocked / mowed over from behind once... all of which were shark... have been in such close contact with them over the years and I still don't like it... at all.

Have had manatee and dolphin so close so many time I cannot count... each time sneaking in and sending chill up spine until realizing what it was.... but they keep off me.

Now... none of these encounters with shark were with a detector in hand... always been other times... I also swim and spend a lot of time in water.

I have noticed and have had a theory that shark do not like the pulse and stay away... and this also seems to apply to X2 freqs as well... for I never had one close with detector.

But perhaps this is just a coincidence.

I don’t like going in any waters where anything bigger than me swims. Nooo thank you!

Back in the 70's when "Jaws" first showed. Was at Virginia Beach. Not many going in the water. So I was waist deep when something bumped my legs. I swear I ran on water back to land. Sorta started a small panic. Turned out to be a few Jellyfish drifting by. Stayed ashore and Bikini watched rest of the day.

Yeah Peter Benchley wrote that and had no idea the fear worldwide a movie would create.

One of my favorite authors.

He also wrote my favorite book also turned movie... which is also my favorite movie... "The Deep".
