PJ Dunick
PJ and I first met about one month ago – we had heard about each other for a couple of years, but the trips never coincided. In November we spent countless hours in the water together and did a lot of freediving. PJ was extremely gentle with animals and one of the best shark divers that I have met – not to mention an avid freediver…the tank would come off whenever he had a chance.
Above water he was an extremely kind and positive person – he radiated good vibes. PJ will be greatly missed by many. Thoughts are with his family and the Dolphin Dream crew.
Rest Easy…

From Wolf:
“PJ was a wonderful and very sensitive young man. I have met him only once, during a recent trip to Tiger Beach, and I was most intrigued by the way he handled the tiger sharks - he was instinctively respectful of the animals, and I could see right away that he genuinely loved them.
Those who knew him well will miss him sorely. I reach out to his parents to offer them my solidarity as a father and grand-father. I cannot imagine a tragedy more painful and devastating than the loss of a child”
Cancel NBCs Shark Hunters
Usually not a big fan of petitions, but this one seems to have some legs and as a results some advertisers such as Allstate have pulled from NBCs show Shark Hunters. Please go ahead and sign here. While I have not seen the show, cannot imagine anything good coming out of it.
Please be aware of the fact that diving with sharks can be potentially dangerous. Do NOT closely interact with sharks, touch them, feed them unless you are very experienced and know exactly how to interpret their body language. While it might look easy and harmless to interact with sharks the way we do, we do NOT encourage this type of underwater activity.
