I am writing on behalf of my 6 year old son Marcus. Marcus is a huge Shark Fan and very fascinated by the monthly newsletters that I read to him. He would like to say thank you for your great letters and awesome pictures!

I myself enjoy your letters because it helps teach my son the true nature of a shark and not just what you see in the movies such as Jaws! I think they are fascinating creatures, and thank you for sharing with us. It makes the day of a 6 year old little boy!

Sincerely,
Dolores and Marcus Quesad

Just a quick note to say that I have come across your website whilst looking
for activities to entertain a group of Canadian visitors that will be in the country between October and December 2005.

The photography has blown me away and I am very proud right now to be a South African. You have managed to show me a whole new world of respect for the Great White Shark.

Will indeed be making use of your services.

Awesome is all I can say. I saw the documentary “Air Jaws” that was screened on TV on Sunday and I was totally overwhelmed by it. You are really doing amazing work.

I am currently working as an assistant cameraman for one of National Geographic’s filmmakers, a job that I always dreamt about as a little boy. I live in the bush fulltime for two months at a time and then take two weeks leave.

I was thinking, if it would be possible to offer my services as a volunteer during my two weeks of leave, maybe helping you guys out for a week or so. I do not know much about sharks or the ocean for that matter but really want to get to know that mysterious world and at the same time lend a helping hand at what ever needs to be done.

If you feel that I can be of any assistance during my leave periods, please let me know. I’ll be in civilization until the 2nd of March and then I’m off to the bush again. If you do consider my offer, I’d appreciate it if you could let me know as soon as possible.

Keep up the great work.
Hoping to hear from you soon.
Regards
Barend van der Watt

Thanks for the update, kindest wishes to you both and deepest respect for all the continuous great work.

Still get a buzz when Chris appears on shark documentaries on Sky TV and I can tell my mates and family that I had the honour of spending time with South Africa's best shark conservationist.

Stay well and kindest regards to you both.

Chris, I am a huge fan of yours and a huge fan of the Great White.

I have been looking around the internet in search of any volunteer work or internships with great white research. I have found quite a few sites and labs who have this available but am a little weary of their experience and their credibility. I thought I would contact you and ask your opinion on what would make an experience like this worth while and educational, or if you offer any of these opportunities yourself,( of course the Fallows would be my first choice,) or know of any in your area. I know you must be busy, if you have a minute your advice would be much appreciated. Thank you!

At the moment I am living in Australia but I’m going over to SA later on in November and was wondering if you do one-day-shark dives around that time. I absolutely LOVE Chris Fallows work and would feel so privileged to meet him.

I’m already researching other expeditions for cage diving in Cape town. If you can help I would love a reply but any recommendations for other companies would be great. Do you work in cooperation with other companies? Where do you base most of your tours? I’m only 15, does that make a difference?

Sincerely Caitlin
P.S Tell Chris I’m his number 1 Fan.
