What does it feel like to swim with massive sharks in the open sea – with no cage, no nets, and no fear? Well I swam with carnivorous sharks in Hawaii, and I've lived to tell the tale!

On this episode of "Fascinating with Sasha Tobago," we're hanging out with Andriana (Andy) Fragola, a marine biologist who loves swimming, studying, and talking about sharks, her favorite animal.

We discuss fascinating factoids about sharks; and what it feels like to swim and dive with these apex predators of the deep blue sea.

Disclaimer: Andy's close encounters and interactions with sharks in the wild are the actions of a trained professional. As a marine biologist and a shark safety diver, she is trained to observe, monitor, and react to shark behaviors. As a hobbyist or enthusiast, do not try to mimic or replicate her actions. Respect sharks and keep your distance. Namaste.
