I think this must be the only man in history to have had his entire head inside the mouth of a Great White and lived.

Just goes to prove that you should never give up.

A Great White swallowed my head and shoulders. If you see him, I want 'em back.

Oh, yeah, that'd give you nightmares for a few weeks. Good thing he held onto that abalone chisel.

That shark was lacking in persistence.

"I think this must be the only man in history to have had his entire head inside the mouth of a Great White and lived."

I don't believe this was a great white...there is a white tip shark, which I think is being referred to here as a "white pointer". It was "only" 3 m long (a bit over 9 feet), much smaller than a large great white at over 7 m (and 2 tons).

I think the crush force from a large great white's jaws would kill you even if the teeth couldn't penetrate. I sure wouldn't want to test it one way or the other... ;-)
