Underwater Star Wars..? Check this out!
Watched this with the missus last night and we both sat there stunned at what we were seeing.
This is brilliant on the eye and we both agreed it was like Star Wars.
Don't usually watch shit like this and caught the last 30 mins.
Amazing footage.
A mighty army of dolphins, sharks, whales, seals and gannets hunt down the billions of sardines along South Africa's east coast each winter. This is the Sardine Run: an underwater Armageddon, the greatest gathering of predators anywhere on the planet, and the most spectacular event in the world's oceans. From intimate moments of the creatures caught up in the run, to the dramatic finale of this spectacular event, The Great Tide is an action-packed feeding-frenzy, filmed underwater, on the ocean's surface, and in the air.

I'll definitely watch the whole thing when I get a chance, love all of Attenborogh's stuff.
Just flicked through it and it certainly does look amazing, definitely a Hollywood blockbuster!
Who'd be a fucking sardine, you're basically just a living, swimming mobile meal. ;D

Missed the end of this, gutted. I saw the Ganets break their necks when they got their dive wrong, and the seals who rip the young ganets who cant fly to pieces to get to the fish in their stomaches. Amazing stuff. Like the Pacific salmon just about everyone relies on the sardines.

Seriously cool stuff:cool:
I'd go so far as to say it's probably the coolest visual display i have ever seen (Post Rave days obviously);D
The pair of us just sat there open mouthed going.."WOW"
Like i said i'm not really that into shit like this but i couldn't stop watching it.
You'll see what i mean by Star Wars towards the end of it.
Cool as fuck imo:cool::cool:

Weird thing is the Sharks just can't get to them at all, the Sardines have a cool trick to confuse them.
Watch it and see;)

I feel sorry for the dolphins, after the sardines of course. They work they're plums off and every other fucker reaps the benifit.
