A 3,000-foot drop-off. Two sharks. No body. One witness. An incredible story.

For more than half a century, the legend of the deepest shark attack in history has been told as fact.

An extraordinary tale of extreme survival, devastating tragedy, and almost unimaginable heroics: three divers. Two oceanic whitetip sharks. A terrifying encounter over one of the deepest drop-offs in the Caribbean.

The account has been repeated in books, magazines, documentaries, and throughout the diving and shark world..

But on St Croix, there have always been whispers… that something about the story didn’t add up.

Few people have ever gone back and seriously examined the evidence.

Until now.

Join journalist and Shark Week host @kingaphilipps and St. Croix resident and diver Cindy Clearwater @mystcroix as they return to Cane Bay… on land and beneath the waves… to investigate what really happened there in 1972.

We track down locals who were on the island at the time, examine accounts that have gone largely unquestioned for decades, consult dive experts and one of the country’s leading shark scientists, and follow the story wherever the evidence takes us.

What emerges is a deep dive into human nature, ambition, science, apex predators…and a few bombshells.

The Deepest Shark Attack in History launches in late Fall 2026.

We’ll be sharing updates as the investigation unfolds. In the meantime, follow us for new discoveries, behind-the-scenes footage from St Croix, and a closer look at the story that started it all.

Most people don’t realize there’s a U.S. National Park in American Samoa and it’s one of the most breathtaking I’ve ever explored.

It’s also the only U.S. National Park south of the equator, making it unlike anywhere else in the National Park System.

With lush rainforest, volcanic peaks, rugged hiking trails, and dramatic coastal views, it honestly felt like stepping into Jurassic Park. Some trails even have ropes to help you navigate the steep sections.

The best part? During our hikes, we were the only people on the trails. Having an entire national park almost to yourself is a pretty rare experience.

If you’re looking for a U.S. National Park that’s truly off the beaten path, this one deserves a spot on your bucket list.

The office looked a little different that day… 🦈🌊

With Shark Week 2026 kicking off, I couldn’t help but look back on one of my favorite productions I’ve ever been a part of.

BTS from filming Attack of the Devil Shark for Shark Week, off the coast of Saba Island in the Caribbean.

Production sound in an environment like this is anything but ordinary. Between the wind, waves, saltwater, and working alongside an incredible team of scientists and conservationists, every day brought a new challenge. Capturing these moments alongside such a talented crew is what makes this job so rewarding.

Saba has become one of my favorite places I’ve ever worked—not just because of its incredible diving and marine life, but because of the passionate people dedicated to protecting it. It’s one of those places that stays with you long after the job is over.

Grateful to have worked with the amazing team at Hazmat Productions, alongside Kinga Phillips, Dr. Austin Gallagher, and Tadzio Bervoets, while documenting the incredible work being done by the Saba Conservation Foundation, Saba Tourism Bureau, and Saba National Marine Park.

Looking back on this unforgettable adventure with nothing but gratitude for everyone who made it possible!
