Dolphin or not, I would've SH*# my pants!! :wow:

That pic has been around for a long time, it's a dolphin and not a photoshop.

:withstupi Yup... been around for a while...

Hmmmm...this must have been the wrong photo. I got it from a site with a video of surfers catching a wave in South Africa with 2 great whites right next to them.

Upon closer scrutiny, this IS a dolphin. Where's the DOH! smiley? :doh: Thanks.

Sharks don't have the curved dorsal fin, theirs is more triangular, and sharks have a tail fin for swinging side to side. That is a fluke which goes up and down for propulsion.

I watch my Discovery Channel...oh yeah em effers...I do.

lol me too

Trust me, there is a lot of wet suit soiling when you're sitting out on your board waiting for the next wave and you see a dorsal fin of any kind... there is usually a collective silence and prayer as each of us sits there waiting to see a back arch when the animal dips below the surface which means the fin is on top of a dolphin. no back arch usually means lunch is served and you hope that you're shoulder/arm muscles aren't too tired to paddle your fat ass to shore as quickly as possible.

LOL!! I take it you surf...Bigger balls than me.
