also on youtube, not sure if all parts are there... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cys_Fs_OxhA

well worth a look, they found rare footage which shows the cause, plus tons of great background info - a terrible incident

I had an idea for a script once. It's basically Jaws except when the guys in the boat are going after Jaws, they look around and there's an even bigger Jaws. The guys have to team up with Jaws to get Bigger Jaws.... I call it... Big Jaws!!!

the youtube video is listed as private.
