A Netflix docuseries crew revealed that while filming 'Our Planet II' near Hawaii, they were attacked by 'incredibly hungry' tiger sharks.
The series’ producers recently revealed a close encounter with hungry 15-foot tiger sharks, and how they narrowly escaped with only an inflatable boat as a barrier between themselves and the predators.last week and described the harrowing encounter.
The series focuses this season on wildlife migration and Laysan is a breeding hub for the Laysan albatross, a large seabird that calls the North Pacific home. On the island, the albatross chicks are cared for by their parents until they’re around 6 months old and the wind picks up enough to assist the heavy birds on their first flight.
“The shoot itself was very interesting: It took six days to sail there from Hawaii, and I believe we are the first natural history series to film the maiden flight of a Laysan albatross. They’re the longest-lived birds of all, and they take this enormous journey around the planet for years before they breed for the first time,” Cordey told the outlet.
In one of the attacks, the boat began to deflate, as the shark had bitten chunks out of it, but fortunately the panicked crew was about 100 yards from land and able to make an “emergency landing” on the sand, where they patched up their boat.“They were incredibly hungry, so there might not have been enough natural food and they were just trying anything they came across in the water.
