Near Miss

Near Miss - The Survival of a Shark Man is a poetic story about the adventures of deep sea urchin diver Ron Elliott, who has been diving with great white sharks for over 30 years. Ron is the only diver to frequent the shark-infested waters of Northern California's infamous Red Triangle. In October 2017 a short 5-second video surfaced on the Internet of Ron being rammed by a very large shark.

My take

A meditative deep dive into obsession and survival. This is the kind of documentary that transforms a viral moment into something profound — a poetic exploration of a man who's spent three decades in the territory of apex predators, and lived to tell the story.
