The Touch

These type of images have traveled around the world and have even been illustrated in National Geographics. The Touch...

Michael Rutzen has mastered the technique of triggering the White Shark to react to his touch.

The shark arcs backwards and extends his jaws to a maximum out of the water. The reason behind this amazing behavior remains a mystery to all.

But whatever the reason may be, the spectacular reaction of the shark to Michael's touch is one of awe and admiration.

Morne Hardenberg has been a shark handler since mid-2000. He assisted Michael Rutzen closely and has been the fastest learner Michael has had the pleasure to work with.
