pretty neat video but typical "high drama" tv intepretation.

Typical

The people that produce these nature specials never seem to remeber to mention that they chum the water with fish guts when they film "the aggressive man eating giant Humbolt Squid. . ." I don't at all mind the tricks used to get a shot, I do mind the media making things out to be something they are not.

I just saw a special in these squid on Discovery that was actually fairly well done and as close to accurate as I've yet seen - even if the silly thing is called "Killer Squid" or some such.

I've also worked with the Sports Divers during the production of Tentacles, they are good people and make an effort to both tell an iteresting story and keep it accurate.
