CNN was full of this Diver vs. Tiger Shark Video today claming that Craig Clasen, one of the divers fought and killed 12 foot long tiger shark who attacked his friend diver. Following up on this mind-blowing story, I went to examine what was supposed to be the most bad ass video I’ve ever seen, only to see that CNN were once again full of baby poop.
Yes, it’s an overinflated story. It’s actually not even a story, just a no-adventure of a bunch of nobodies who over inflated it to get on TV. There was clearly no fight. Craig Clasen did not fight any shark. He was fighting half dead animal. I mean let’s be serious for one minute. A 12 foot long tiger shark vs. diver and diver wins killing a shark? Give me a break. Let me tell you what is not on the video and why it is not on the video. My theory is more likely what the real story went down as:
Bunch of blood thirsty animal killers armed with harpoons went to kill themselves a big fish to have something to brag about. You know – that’s one way to impress your boyfriend and get laid. Armed with harpoons, they dived in the ocean and waited around. Then a tiger shark showed up out of nowhere and may have got pretty close to one of the divers, but nothing happened. Shark did not bite diver’s penis off, he can still pleasure his boyfriend. Harpoon shots were fired at the shark, delivering lethal damage, but it did not kill him instantly. Bleeding profusely, tiger shark sort of floated around in agony knowing he was wounded so badly he could no longer fight back or swim away. That’s when Craig Clasen climbed on paralyzed animal and finished him off, which is what we see in the video.
Fighting the shark my ass. Craig Clasen – if you were actually fighting the tiger shark who was not hit several times with harpoon arrows, you would get pulled out of the ocean looking something like THIS or at least THIS. I mean seriously – there is a reason no actual “fight” as you claim was recorded on the video. Everything else was, just no sign of a fight. Are you really expecting me to believe you killed a 12 foot tiger shark? Yeah right…
Craig Clasen in Diver vs. Tiger Shark Video is below. Take a look and tell me if he’s not bullshitting us all. Just as additional info – the video was shot last June off the coast of New Orleans in the Gulf of Mexico.

I think that is a real shame they even put you on the news. In this case only the stupid survived!
After reading the stories a couple of different places, and watching the video, I’d say that I have to agree with you on this. There is no fight in this, just a man clinging to a half-dead tiger shark that has been harpooned several times.
The whole “middle” part of the video is missing (at least here anyway)…the part where the harpooning took actually place. It only shows the shark swimming around in the beginning, then cuts to the end when it’s about dead.
To me, the fact that they speared it 7 times, but none of that was on video, proves that there is something awfully funny about this incident. In addition, sharks experts who have viewed the video say the shark was not demonstrating any pre-attack behavior.
So I definitely agree with your take on this.
too bad the wrong people get attacked by sharks. sounds like these guys aren’t worthy of being shark shit. I thought it was sad the chinese cut dorsal fins off and leave the shark to die because they eat anything to try to make there dicks bigger but this is sad
You are all such big men when you aren’t in the water, aren’t you? Sure, I don’t approve of the guy killing a shark either, but you have to admit that diving into water where there is a tiger shark swimming around, then getting close enough to said shark to be able to fire off a spear gun (the best guns have a range of only 20 foot, after that the spear isn’t travelling fast enough to penetrate anything), and then hanging around the agitated and wounded animal to finish it off, is definitely ballsy.
Morally incorrect, but ballsy.
You guys are all so ignorant. The people have been diving with sharks for well over 20 years and never had to kill one. Obviously this time was different. There is nothing fame seeking about them and the only reason this story was picked up was because they were shooting a catalogue and didn’t own the footage rights. You all should educate yourself on the facts before you go talking about truly wonderful men who have tremendous respect for every animal in the ocean.

YOU MUST BE MARRIED TO OR SLEEPING WITH ONE OF THOES KILLERS TO NOT SEE THE TRUTH HERE.
GO SIT ON A BLOWFISH!
