    I imagined walking down the street and bus driving along that was near me jumped about 50 feet. I’d shit my pants.

    Why basking sharks, and other sharks and ray species, breach is still not known for certain. A number of theories including for the removal of external parasites, predator avoidance, cleaning gill rakers and as part of courtship behaviour have been suggested.
