This spooky footage was taken on October 21 by a stationary Fisheries camera at a popular dive spot knows as D9 in Cockburn Sound, Western Australia, where a sunken barge lies 3km offshore in 12m of water. The camera was set up to monitor snapper spawning, but shows a big great white circling four times within just a meter of it. It was posted on the WA Divers website and YouTube, but removed a few days later, and now local divers post angry comments, saying they should have been told of the shark sighting. Department spokepeople say that local council rangers and Water Police were alerted, but not the general public, because the creature was a long way offshore and posed no immediate public hazard.
