SWIM WITH THE SHARKS!

Opps! Err... I mean swim with the crocs. Didn't mean to scare you but there are a few things wrong with this picture.

1. It's not the sea, coz crocs are fresh water amphibia. Real divers don't dive into fresh water unless they're looking for a lost shoe, a lost girlfriend or find someone who decides to stay underwater permanently (you know what i mean).

2. Real adventure don't have cages. So you're right, this is taken from a zoo. For no-guts spineless divers who would rather watch National Geographic than to experience the real thing. Is it dangerous to dive into this without cage? Yes, it's possible. But first, make a will, say your prayers, say 'I love you' to all people meaningful to you, get your best dive equipments (haha, you might only need to use it once) and go for it! Don't worry, your chances are good. Even some dude died from a stringray strike than being bitten by a croc, so relax.

3. Good news! We don't have crocs in Tenggol. But we do have other non-subtle life beings that may prove as fatal - crown of thorns, stingrays, reef sharks, turtles with sharp teeth, aquaman, mermaids, a buddy who'd been below 45m and a sub-zero Russian war submarine.

4. Half the fun of diving is being able to explore - means able to see, touch, feel and experience first-hand the discoveries of the sea and to observe their habitats. In this cage, you can only observe, you can't pet, stroke, feed or swim along with it. So it's not worthwhile, you're better off watching movies or go take a dip at Aquamarine at KLCC. It's for half-retards and brain-dead nerds who substitute a safe controlled environment than the real deal. PS3 should come up with something for armchair divers whereby they wear their suits and virtually pretend they're underwater. This is what i call a 'dry hump'.

5. What happens after - if you survive the ordeal, err, i mean experience, than it's a good time to write a book, or a blog - Swim with the crocs. You can then talk about the many crocs that tried to get into your pants, how you ward them off, how they droll and water their mouth when they see you in a bikini and hey, what am i talking about? OK back to the topic. Blog - yea, tell us how you feel (say whatever, we don't care anyway), how you come close to a monster and live to tell the tale, blog at kakidiver.blogspot.com, tell your buddies till they avoid you, or throw a party coz you literally are born again.

Once again, like an old recorder that keeps saying the same old thing, mark your calenders for April 9-12, 09, Tenggol trip. We leave on April8 if there's no objections and drive at leisure or you can leave on april9 wee morning and drive like Lewis Hamilton, your call. 39days to countdown.
