Great Series of DVDs
My son loves this series. When Shark Week was no longer OnDemand on our TV, I had to search out the DVDs so that he could see even more shark action. It has become more than a show. We "play" Shark Week with the couch being the boat and we've got decoys and lifeboats, etc. Loads of fun.

Our 7-year old son is thrilled
Hi - our 7 year old son is absolutely thrilled by this video. He could watch all 8 or so hours without stopping. When we recently went to an aquarium, he pointed out different shark types to me and how they're different, when they hunt, etc. After reading the small information board, it all matched. So it's certainly a great show for every kid interested in sharks!

Some overlapping info, but a nice compilation
I pre-ordered this dvd and the day it arrived I popped it in the player. The packaging is very nice w/ a cool 3D Jaws pic on the front. 4 discs: 1 and 3 have 3 shows, 2 and 4 have 4 shows each. With the exception of Anatomy of a Bite (90min), most avg around 45 minutes. The shows range from Shark Bite survivors to Air Jaws & Air Jaws II. $19.99 is a fair price for 14 episodes and I did learn a lot. They seem to dwell quite a bit on the Great White, so footage of the leaping sharks in So. Africa can get a bit repetitive. Also Erich Ricter, the scientist whose bite from a bull shark was highlighted in Anatomy of a Bite, makes quite a few appearances throughout the episodes. You'd think that after 20 years of Shark Week, Discovery would include 14 very different episodes in this compliation. I'm a huge Shark Week fan and never miss a year so that's why this dvd was a MUST-OWN, but I do wish it had maybe 6 more episodes and they could have focused on other sharks like the Mako or Tiger vs. focusing quite a bit on the Great White and Bull Shark.. If you like owning Nature DVDs, and perhaps aren't going to record this year's Shark Week episodes, this is a good deal. Just be prepared to watch the majority of the time about Whale, Bull, and Great White Sharks..

Not for younger kids!
Ok, that header should be a DUH! But my daughter is 9 and she has my same obsessions with sharks I had as a little girl. The first DVD is attacks on people, not underwater documentaries. Matter of fact I think 3 of the DVDs are about victims and injuries, etc. My daughter is pretty well balanced and it does not bother her to see those kinds of things ( I squirm sometimes). SO I would recommend not letting your little kids watch those DVD's. I think there was no real reason to have any non-shark documentary material involved. It was just fear mongering and scare tactics. We are still swimming with sharks as our Mom and daughter bucket list!

Incredible Films!
We've watched these DVD's over and over. A wonderful collection of some of the most amazing photography and videography ever captured.My 8-year-old son has been fascinated by these films and shows genuine concern for the plight of our sea-life. I highly recommend this collection!
