Deep Blue was featured on the Discovery Channel's Shark Week. ![]() The shark was first spotted in Mexico by researcher Mauricio Hoyos Padilla. President of the Marine Conservation Science Institute of Waikoloa, Hawaii whose name is Michael Domeier, explained that in the footage, it appears the diver was not able to resist the temptation to lean out and make contact with the shark, but what occurs when diving along with sharks is that one has to reach out and create a good distance from it.
