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

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? 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.

The site where I got that photo is down, but the video is here:

http://www.surfermag.com/av/shrkatt/

There's a short ad for Surfer mag to sit through, then a nice video with slo-mo.
