Meeting a coelacanth

that is fantastic!!! (Apart for the annoying diver commentary which appears to have been added post-filming for effect). I guess this was filmed during the Laurent Ballesta dives of 2010.

There's some information here about the Sodwana coelacanths, and a theory as to why this poulation is found at such relatively shallow depths: DINOFISH.com - Discovery of the 'NEW' South African Coelacanths
