Eli names the Alabama-aligned scientists who call environmentalism a hatred of humanity and insist shark populations are fine, while defending his own credibility.
- Scientists call Tim crazy and extremist for his shark protection stance, which he says they write down
- NOAA put up an Instagram defending shark tournaments without acknowledging 25 deaths, because they're bought and paid for by Commerce Department
- Tim describes diving in Fakarava, Tahiti's shark superhighway, where James Cameron was the only other person in a boat
- After banning deer hunting in his home region, hunters became hunted by deer instead, raising questions about balance
- Tim argues it will take 25 years of not killing sharks to let populations rebound, and if fishing stops, shark bites could rise to 100 per year with increased fatalities
