narcuul, there was an IOtD, way, way back, that sparked a long debate, on whether it was a shark or a dolphin in a wave, right next to a surfer. Now, when ever either one is mentioned, someone is likely to mention the other.

Hi narcuul,
I'm impressed with your grasp of English.

This is the picture.
This is NOT a shark. Sharks do not have a horizontal tail. Sharks have no interest in surfing. Dolphins love surfing and do it all the time.

I don't think I have ever seen a dolphin that large before.

Dolphin or not, if I was the guy on the surfboard I would be needing a change of wetsuit. Sitting IN the ocean, I don't think I would have the wherewithall to make analytical judgements.

Speaking of Dolphins, EHOWA(maybe NSFW) had this picture taken in Bermuda.

According to Kurt Jones website, it's a dolphin.

They said it was a Dolphin because they saw some Dolphins in the area several hours later.

Well, I don't know. It looks like a shark to me to be honest. I'd challenge the horizontal tail fin myself. I don't think the picture shows clearly enough to make that distinction.

Also, dolphins are supposed to only grow to a maximum size of 2.5 metres. I suppose there could be mutants though.

Anyway, maybe it's photoshopped.

Maybe the dophins where the surfer is get that big. The ones I see every time I go out boating are no more than 6 feet long.
