‘The Sharkman’. What do you think the Word List.
his job involves? • broughtup• encounter • operation• predators
• adapt• ferocious• immobility• interpret

A Mike Rutzen has one of the most thrilling occupations you could possibly imagine. He is an expert in
the secrets and behaviour of one of the most powerful and feared natural predators on the planet, the great
white shark. Once a fisherman who was scared of this mysterious animal, Mike has learnt to admire and
understand great whites, and now, he spends a large part of his time in their company. Mike’s passion for
sharks goes beyond the limits of most shark experts, though. Believe it or not, Mike doesn’t simply observe 5
sharks in a tank or in the oceans; he actually pets them, plays with them and even hypnotises them. He has
developed such a special bond with sharks that he is now known as The Sharkman.
B Rutzen is not a scientist. In actual fact, he taught himself everything he knows about sharks. He was
brought up on a farm in the South African countryside and knew nothing about sharks until he started
working as a fisherman off the coast of Gansbaai, a fishing village near Cape Town. As tourism developed 10
in the area, there arose a need for experienced boat skippers to take tourists out to see the sharks. Despite
his natural fear of sharks, Mike gradually came to love these giant fish and developed a very close
relationship with them. He took lessons in freediving so he could swim with sharks and he slowly learnt how
to interpret their behaviour and adapt his posture to avoid being attacked. He soon decided that he wanted
to work with sharks and started up his own cage diving business dedicated to sharing his passion for great 15
white sharks.
C Mike’s diving operation now specialises in locating and diving with great white sharks to provide
people with the opportunity to experience a unique and unforgettable underwater encounter with these
amazing creatures. Mike’s interest in sharks doesn’t end there, though. He has set himself the goal of
changing the negative perception that so many people have of great white sharks. Through his interactions 20
with sharks, he aims to show people that they are far from the ferocious and mindless killing machines
that are portrayed in the media, but that they are curious, intelligent and sensitive creatures. “They may
be the top predator in the sea, but they are not the man-eating killers of our nightmares,” he says. He
believes that great white sharks have personalities and enjoy interacting with people.
D Sharks see Mike neither as prey nor as predator and they happily allow him to swim alongside 25
them. A shark will occasionally let Mike ride with it by hanging onto its dorsal fin. What’s truly surprising,
though, is that these so-called ferocious killers even allow Mike to hypnotise them. By turning it on
its head and massaging its snout close to its eyes, Mike can put a four-metre-long, 1,000 kg shark
into a state of total immobility for about fifteen minutes. During this time, the shark will lie upside-
down and rest on Mike’s hand, a sight that scientists can only marvel at. 30
E The Sharkman has become a great champion of shark conservation, seeking to highlight the great
white shark’s status as an endangered species and to raise awareness of the need to protect them. He
regularly travels to give talks and lectures on the great white shark and he also makes documentaries
about them. In Sharkman, a Discovery Channel programme, he tours the world and dives with different
species of sharks, demonstrating his ability to hypnotise them. He also starred in an episode of the 35
BBC’s Natural World. He not only has an exciting and rewarding job, but he is also, as is stated by the
title of another BBC programme, A Living Legend of Gansbaai.
Check these words
• beyond the limits • posture • dedicated to • perception • mindless
• nightmare • dorsal fin • snout • marvel at • highlight • rewarding
